[Fantasy] Divine Capital (Book) - Chapter 28 (Complete)

Chapter 26

I sobered up, followed by a severe headache. The hangover was truly awful.

My mind was blank; I squinted at the ceiling. It must be dawn; the previously cloying red light in the room had somehow turned into a simple white, reminding the guests of the time.

I heard a sob beside me, just one, barely perceptible sob.

It seemed like a lot had happened last night; my memories began to slowly return.

Turning my head, I saw the girl lying far away on the other side of the bed. She had removed her collar and chain herself, regaining her mobility. At this moment, the girl was covering her eyes with her left arm, seemingly hiding tears. In

her other hand, she held a dinner knife.

A shiver ran through me, but I quickly regained my composure. If she wanted to kill me, she would have done it already; I wouldn't be awake like this now.

I sat up in bed, rummaged around on the bedside table, and found a pack of cigarettes as I had hoped. I haven't smoked in a long time, but since I can sleep soundly with my carotid artery exposed to someone else's knife, a cigarette isn't so bad, right?

And honestly, last night's crazy sex was incredibly enjoyable; a cigarette would be the perfect ending to that pleasure. I haven't had this kind of sensual meal in a long time; the last time was with Xia Xi in the woods…

Hearing me get up, I could clearly feel the girl tremble slightly, her breathing becoming much softer. I glanced at her out of the corner of my eye; the hand holding the knife, hanging by the bedside, was carefully placing it on the floor.

Looking at her pink neck and her clothes, torn and tattered, revealing large patches of skin, I felt myself getting hard again.

I moved closer to her. The girl breathed softly, motionless, pretending to be asleep. Perhaps she wasn't pretending; I could imagine she just didn't know how to face all this.

"Only those who pretend to be asleep can never be woken up. How long are you planning to lie here?"

I exhaled a puff of smoke at her.

The girl's breath hitched, then she sighed, pulling her arm away from her face. Her large, amber eyes were terribly red and swollen.

"Hehe, you're really something, you even caught me pretending to be asleep~" the girl grinned at me.

She's acting again. Doesn't she know the tear stains on her face and her hoarse voice have already given her away? I thought to myself.

"Since you're awake, let's continue?"

I put my arm around her shoulder and pulled her closer.

"What... ah! No... that..."

The girl was startled at first, then tried to hide her panic. One hand covered her lower abdomen, while the other grabbed my wrist.

There was blood on the sheets, and I frowned.

"Was last night your first time?"

The girl's brow twitched, a look of grievance flashing across her face for a moment, only to be replaced by seductive allure in half a second.

"Just kidding, it just so happened I had my period. You're not very gentle with me, I can't do 'that' these days."

she chuckled.

To be honest, I didn't even know which of her words were acting; this girl was unpredictable.

I didn't want to kill her, so I didn't want to do anything that would make her want to kill me again. So I released my hand from her shoulder, then bent down and took a money pouch from my clothes.

"A thousand gold coins, that should be enough. Let's go."

I tossed the pouch to her; even a very good prostitute usually wouldn't charge more than five hundred gold coins.

The girl stared at the pouch, then immediately understood what I meant. She gave me a flirtatious wink, smoothed her hair, and straightened her clothes to a presentable state. After doing all this, the girl reached out and picked up the pouch with slightly trembling hands, got out of bed, and walked towards the door.

I sat on the bed watching her back, unable to describe the feeling.

The girl reached for the door but stopped, her trembling ceasing. I heard her breathing become more and more rapid.

Suddenly, she turned around, her previous feigned flirtatious smile and hesitation gone, and she threw the pouch at my face. Luckily, I was prepared and dodged it.

"You! You! You actually mistook me for a prostitute! You bastard!"

I laughed. "Continue acting? Why aren't you acting anymore?"

The girl let out a low growl, lunged at me, and slammed me down onto the bed.

I couldn't help but laugh as I looked at her fierce face, rolling over and pinning her beneath me.

Her throat was probably injured from the intense activity last night, because she let out a hoarse scream, using all her strength to kick me off her, panting as she regained the high ground.

I didn't try to fight her anymore, because it was really pointless. Looking at her fierce, vengeful expression, I just found it quite adorable.

"What are you trying to do?"

I asked teasingly.

The girl hesitated for a moment, then mustered her courage and screamed, "I'll rape you!"

My morning erection was swallowed hard into her wet little garden, making her teeth chatter. But this thing endured the pain and swelling and vigorously shook its slender waist, squeezing me with a mixture of pain and pleasure.

I reached up and climbed onto her breasts, her soft, dove-like breasts as soft as freshly solidified milk. The girl's cheeks were flushed, she bit her lower lip, grabbed my wrist, and fiercely pressed me against the bed to prevent me from touching her.

She was already exhausted from my ministrations, and it would have been very easy for me to resist. But I found the current situation quite amusing and pleasurable, so I let her do as she pleased.

Because I had just woken up in the morning, my stamina was really poor. After about five minutes, she was already exhausted, but I was also on the verge of ejaculation. I thrust my hips into her, and the girl, who had only taken two-thirds of my penis into her, began to fully enter her delicate and narrow passage. She couldn't help but moan, supporting herself on my chest with her hands to avoid my thrusts.

"Ugh...it's hot...mmmmm!"

As I ejaculated, the girl cried out repeatedly, her lower abdomen spasming as if in cramps.

After calming down, her arms trembled violently on my chest; the strength she had used to forcefully suppress me was almost all she had.

I sat up, stroking her sweaty back with my fingers while teasing her nipples with my teeth and tongue. Having just been raped by her, now it was my turn.

The girl's juices flowed like a spring as I bit her, her vagina contracting incessantly. Encouraged, my penis slowly awakened. I tightened my grip on her waist and resumed my assault.

"Again! Too much sex isn't good for your health!"

the girl pleaded helplessly, but why did her words seem so ridiculous?

However, once I truly began, she had no time to speak; uncontrollable moans were the only sound she could utter.

She bit a finger, her eyes half-closed, no longer possessing the strength to resist. She could only moan hoarsely as she endured my thrusts, her entire body covered in glistening sweat.

Under the ordinary fluorescent light, the snow-whiteness of her skin truly gave me a direct understanding. So elastic…both her skin and her vagina…

As I pressed my penis against her cervix and began grinding, she arched her entire body, her little toes and insteps tensing into a tight arc, her eyes rolling back as she climaxed uncontrollably.

I laid the limp girl down, pulled out my penis, and shoved my semen-mixed penis into her mouth. The dazed girl seemed to retain a sliver of instinct; her little tongue moved erratically a few times, allowing me to ejaculate successfully inside her.

In a way, this truly fulfilled the initial deal, I chuckled inwardly.

I covered her mouth, forcing her to open her eyes again. Her large eyes flickered with surprise and doubt, not understanding my meaning.

I inserted my fingers into her mouth, stirring them with her tongue along with my semen. Hot and slippery, coupled with a hint of humiliation and shyness on her face, it was truly a rare treat.

A bed goddess… and an absolute gem… that's all I can say. Whether appetizer, main course, or dessert, she was top-notch, only perhaps lacking a certain maturity, a touch of perfection.

I never kissed her, though I longed to taste her tongue. I knew this was just a sexual encounter, devoid of any love.

The girl swallowed everything I wanted, and only then did I remove my fingers. Exhausted, we lay side-by-side on the bed, staring at the ceiling.

She tugged at my arm.

"What?"

I asked without turning my head.

"Can't you hold me for a moment! I'm cold!"

she scolded, frowning.

I chuckled, reaching out to pull her close, letting her lean against me.

"Don't you think what you're saying is strange? Don't forget you're a rapist,"

I said.

"Why don't you just say you raped me last night!"

"It was just a deal. I hid those people for you, and you have to pay me the price."

"Taking advantage of someone in distress..."

"That was your own choice."

We chatted like this, the feeling incredibly awkward.

"Who is Fey?"

she suddenly asked.

I shuddered and turned to look at her. "What did you say?!"

"Fey. Last night you were calling her name while you were with me. I didn't realize you were such a loyal lover."

She said half-jokingly.

I fell silent, unsure of what to say.

"Who's better in bed, her or me?"

the girl asked again, laughing. I didn't know how much of her laughter was genuine.

"We have feelings for each other."

"Oh my..."

The girl seemed to want to tease me, but after making an exaggerated exclamation, she seemed at a loss for words. I guessed she had no experience in this area, despite her usually sharp tongue.

"What's your name?"

she asked again when I didn't answer.

"What? Do you really need to know the name of the man who took your virginity?"

I asked.

"I'm not a virgin, don't flatter yourself! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

She laughed exaggeratedly a few times.

I scoffed at her laughter.

"Tell me! Or I'll kill you."

She shook my arm.

"Greedy Wolf."

I gave in.

“My name is Chu Xie!”

the girl said after receiving my name.

“I’m not interested in your name,”

I said.

“Don’t be so hurtful, okay?”

Chu Xie snorted, then thought carefully about something, “Greedy Wolf… that sounds familiar.”

“I’m a wanted criminal,”

I said without any attempt to hide it.

“Oh! Right! That’s right! The one with the really high price lately. Who did you rape?”

I asked, both amused and exasperated, “My bounty is ten million!”

Before I could finish the sentence, “How could a rapist possibly have such a high bounty?” Chu Xie interrupted me.

“Ten million? How many people did you rape?”

I finally realized she was teasing me, so I stared at her without saying anything.

My little trick failed, and Chu Xie chuckled. She got up and looked at herself in the large mirror on the wall.

“You’ve torn it to shreds again, get me some clothes.”

I looked at her, resting my head on my arm, “Don’t bother others with your own affairs.”

“Hey, hurry up! How am I supposed to go out like this!”

She acted as if we were old friends.

I reluctantly got out of bed and started dressing. Just as I was pulling up my pants, a kitchen knife was pressed against my neck, and my back instantly became soaked with cold sweat.

"Snap!"

Chu Xie slashed hard across my neck with the knife. "Ten million is mine!"

But she used the back of the blade... so I'm still alive.

I turned around and grabbed her wrist, glaring at her with murderous intent. She remained unmoved, looking up directly at me without flinching.

"This is to give you a warning! Your vigilance is terrible."

I shook off her hand, the lingering fear gradually fading, but my mood soured.

She was right; I didn't know why I had let my guard down around her. Chu Xie's acting was expert-level. Although I knew she was acting, the atmosphere she created still managed to draw me in without me even realizing it, and that was the most terrifying thing.

"Are you relieved now? I could have killed you just now, but I didn't, so you don't have to worry about me killing you anymore!"

the girl said smugly.

"Better?"

I frowned and looked at her coldly.

"What's wrong?"

Chu Xie tilted her head, looking at me with a puzzled expression.

Was she genuinely confused or just pretending? Why would she say something like "in the future"? Did she think I'd let her come with me? It was ridiculous.

"Why do you think there's any future between us? Did you become attached to me because I took your virginity?"

I deliberately used vulgar language to provoke her.

"I told you I'm not. I've already been with four men, and each one of them was several times better than you in bed."

Chu Xie sneered.

"Really? What positions did you use?"

I pressed her relentlessly.

"Positions? Uh... the positions we use!"

The girl's calm and collected demeanor was flawless.

"The kind you used last night?"

I immediately pressed.

“Yes, yes,”

the girl quickly replied.

“Looks like you really enjoy being chained up during sex,”

I said mercilessly.

Chu Xie paused for a moment, then quickly corrected herself, “No! I meant, that position this morning!”

Watching her blush and blurt out such embarrassing words, I really didn’t know whether to call her naive or just eccentric.

I sighed and went out to ask a waiter to bring me a set of women’s clothes. The service here was impeccable; it was as if they had already thought of this kind of thing. The waiter directly retrieved a clean and elegant outfit for me from the wardrobe behind the nearest counter, and it was free.

Back in the room, Chu Xie was washing up in the bathroom.

I pushed open the door and went in. “I put your clothes on the rack.”

Chu Xie was showering when she exclaimed, “Wow!” She

hurriedly pulled the curtain by the tub shut, then peeked out from behind.

“How dare you just come in like that!”

I said with a wry smile, pointing instead to the curtain she had drawn. The shower

curtain in this erotic place… was transparent.

Chu Xie let out a groan, clutching her body and crouching down. "Get out! Get out!"

I, however, stripped off my clothes and stepped into the spacious bathtub. Chu Xie crouched there, her snow-white skin arousing me again.

"You're not serious! So unsatisfied!"

Chu Xie questioned, her voice trembling with tears.

"Because I'm not as good as those four men before you, so I wanted to try harder,"

I said.

Chu Xie buried her face in her knees, shaking her shoulders violently. "I give up! You're the best! Is that alright?"

I reached out and smoothed her hair, holding the wet strands clinging to her shoulders in my hands, and felt a surge of tenderness in my heart. This scene... reminded me so much of the time Fey and I spent in Rayout. Back then, I had driven her to the brink of ecstasy, and then we took a bath together. We nestled together, enveloped in the scalding water, thinking of nothing... only of happiness.

"Let's stop, let's soak together."

I gently turned her around by her shoulders.

"Couldn't you wait until I'm done showering?"

"Why bother? This place is so big, it's a waste to just shower."

I said, turning on the tap and filling the bathtub with hot water.

Steam filled the entire bathroom, and Chu Xie and I sat at opposite ends of the tub, enjoying a moment of peace.

Chu Xie had her hair tied back, submerged her head in the water with only her eyes showing, glaring at me while blowing bubbles.

I looked at her face, constantly warning myself not to get involved with her anymore. One night of madness was already the limit of what I could give. Chu Xie had a very unique charm, and she was full of the desire to explore. If I stayed with her any longer, I really didn't know what would happen. Therefore, I had to be firm, instead of slowly softening my heart like this.

"What are we going to do later?"

Chu Xie seemed to have exhaled all the air from her body in the water. She raised her head, took a deep breath, and then asked me.

I wanted to answer her with something as cold as "If you follow me, I'll kill you," but thinking of the moment of warmth she had given me last night, I changed my words.

"I'll say goodbye and watch you walk away."

Chu Xie seemed to have anticipated my response. "You think you can just dump me after you've had your way with me? That's one of your favorite tactics."

"Why are you clinging to me?"

I was annoyed by her tone and could only ask a direct question.

"I didn't mean to cling to you, I'm just a little curious about you."

I didn't have anything to be curious about. My level wasn't low, but a level four warrior like me wasn't exactly a sought-after figure in the real mercenary world. It was her, however, who was being pursued, what story lay behind her... that really intrigued me.

"Curious about what?"

"I want to see what your Fey is like, is she prettier than me?"

Chu Xie asked with a smile, her eyes crinkling.

No one could replace Fey in my heart, but even so, I would still say that Chu Xie's appearance was in no way inferior to Fey's. Fey's gentleness might be common, but Chu Xie's chaotic personality was truly unique.

But Fey was the one who redeemed me, and in that respect, I couldn't possibly separate her appearance for any pointless comparison.

"You can't see her, she's dead,"

I said softly.

"No photos?"

Chu Xie asked again.

Yes, I didn't even have a single photo of Fey. Back then, before we could even enjoy our hard-won happiness, we had to separate and reunite because of various things, until finally parting forever.

I've decided, when I see Asaga, I must take a picture with her, hehe… Thinking of this, I touched the little corner of her pendant hanging on my chest.

Seeing that I wasn't speaking, Chu Xie felt very bored and started blowing bubbles in the water again.

A girl who lies constantly… Although we had the closest contact, I couldn't see through her every smile, every word, every action. This was also Chu Xie's most charming quality. Was what she revealed to me what she wanted me to see? Or was she really that kind of girl? I couldn't tell.

The only thing I could tell was that when we were having a wild time together, her panting, moaning, and orgasms weren't faked. Under such a perfect sexual experience, there's no way to fake it.

"Greedy Wolf, what bad thing did you do to be wanted?"

Chu Xie asked.

"Heh, being wanted doesn't necessarily mean you've done something bad. And often, if you've done something bad, no one will even want you,"

I said self-deprecatingly.

"That makes sense."

"And you? What did you do to be on their radar?"

I countered.

"I killed their whole family."

"The truth?"

"I swear, I've never told a lie since I was born,"

Chu Xie said, laughing heartily.

I was amused by her too.

"Give me a reason to follow me."

"Following a wanted criminal should be a lot of fun,"

Chu Xie replied, but I didn't believe her.

In the end, I couldn't get a reason from her in the bathtub to follow me. But much, much later, she gave me a somewhat convincing answer; whether it was true or not, only she knew.

Chu Xie told me that at this moment, she actually hated me to death, but I didn't realize it. A woman's feelings are never simply a matter of love and hate. However, for some reason I don't know, the revenge she's thinking of now isn't to kill me, but to make me fall in love with her and then betray me in the most vicious way.

As I got to know her better, I realized she was actually a seasoned player in love, just a novice in the realm of sex. This woman's manipulative skills were incredibly sophisticated; this was the first time she'd lost to me, and lost so badly.

Did she finally get her revenge? By the time the answer was revealed, neither of us knew who had truly lost. Maybe it was me, maybe it was her, maybe… we both lost…

************

Chu Xie seemed determined to cling to me, and I simply couldn't bring myself to be ruthless with her.

"If you want to die with me, I can't control you. But don't expect me to wait for you; if you can't keep up, that's your own problem."

I said, drying myself while watching Chu Xie groom herself in the mirror.

Chu Xie didn't reply; the towel she held in her mouth just covered her chest. She combed her hair, the long indentation on her back incredibly alluring.

If it weren't for the long soak in the bath that had left me completely limp, I would have had the urge to just stand there and ravage her from behind again. However, I was now extremely wary, feeling that she was just trying to seduce me with that kind of pose.

She had torn the free women's clothing provided by the club, then reassembled it with clips, instantly transforming it into a stylish new outfit. This move was truly astonishing; I had to admit, women with their own unique taste and aesthetic experience in clothing are always appealing.

She moved quickly, giving me no chance to shake her off and leave alone. So, as I opened the door to leave, Chu Xie immediately followed.

I walked while thinking about my next move, but my mind wouldn't cooperate. With a fragrant and delicate girl following behind, no man could think straight—except Azza.

Finally, I arrived at my own room on the upper floor of the hotel. I opened the door, slipped inside, and immediately tried to close it.

"Hey!"

Chu Xie shouted, squeezing through the crack in the door, reaching in to grab me.

I forcefully pushed the door open, pushing her hand out, gradually blocking her outside. As long as I stayed in the room, she couldn't possibly wait outside for me indefinitely without eating or drinking. As soon as she left, I could slip away immediately.

Chu Xie wasn't as strong as me, and I was smugly pleased with myself when the door slammed shut.

But then she seemed to have gotten her hand caught in the door and burst into tears outside.

I quickly opened the door to check on her, but she darted into the room the moment I instinctively opened it, showing no signs of injury whatsoever.

I was furious, while she plopped down on the bed as if nothing had happened.

"Hurry up and pack your things~ I'll wait for you here,"

she said calmly.

If you don't think things through, her tricks are truly impossible to defend against. Chu Xie has this quality; she can make people instinctively trust her without them even realizing it.

I sighed, then took off my casual formal attire and put my armor and other gear back on.

I put the Divine Palace sword back on my waist, and the feeling of holding its hilt was wonderful; a sense of being alive returned to my body.

At that moment, I suddenly remembered something.

"Hey!"

I turned and called to her.

Chu Xie tilted her head, deliberately avoiding my gaze and focusing on the view outside the window.

"Chu Xie!"

I called her name helplessly.

The girl immediately turned around, smiling at me. "What~?"

"What level are you?"

She didn't seem to have any combat equipment. Could this mean she's just a professional con artist or something?

But I clearly remembered that she didn't show the slightest discomfort when facing my murderous intent. Unless she was a warrior who constantly teetered on the edge of life and death, she couldn't possibly ignore my killing intent.

Chu Xie was quite straightforward, "I don't know."

"You're not a professional player?"

I frowned.

"What's a professional player?"

I wondered if she was asking this on purpose. Helplessly, I changed my question, "Tell me your neural simulation level."

"Oh, you mean that? Of course, it's zero."

If her neural simulation wasn't even zero, then I really had to consider killing her before leaving. But I couldn't travel with someone without even knowing their level… Wait, why am I actually considering traveling with her!

"Where's your weapon?"

Chu Xie raised her right hand, and a surge of energy rapidly gathered in it, but the loose energy ball disappeared after a few vibrations. The girl seemed stunned for a moment, then muttered something through gritted teeth.

"No weapon..."

she said, lowering her hand.

I squinted at her.

"Buy me one, you seem pretty rich."

Could it be that she followed me to scam me out of money? Then I'd really have to redefine everything that happened before. My head started throbbing at the thought.

Without saying anything else, I dragged her to the mercenary headquarters to have her level tested.

"Why do we have to test that kind of thing!"

Chu Xie said rather reluctantly.

"If you test your level, I might consider letting you come with me."

"Ha! What level do you need to be before you agree to come with me?"

Chu Xie looked at me teasingly.

"We'll talk about it after we test!"

I led her into the mercenary headquarters, and then we stood together at the level testing window.

"What are you standing there for?"

Chu Xie looked at me. "You forced me to take a level test and then made me pay for it?"

I reluctantly paid for her, and she got the results three seconds later.

Chu Xie seemed a little nervous while looking at the results, but she quickly recovered.

"Let me see,"

I said.

She calmly granted me access, allowing me to see her test results.

"Chu Xie, Combat Level 9."

It seemed she wasn't lying about her neural simulation level, but this combat level assessment left me slightly disappointed. It wasn't that I had any prejudice against levels; after all, Melfis could kill level 4 opponents at level 7, but the problem was that most people weren't monsters like him.

I preferred to travel alone, and when I was with Melfis and the others, my teammates were all stronger than me. I wouldn't take care of lower-level companions, and I didn't want to die because of it.

I spent another sum of money to test my own level. Just as Melfis said, my combat level was 4. I was quite pleased, because after those fierce battles, my level hadn't increased at all, which meant my bottleneck was indeed level 4.

According to Melfis and Azza's theory, the lower the bottleneck level, the higher the combat talent. Level 4, that's the same as Azza's bottleneck level. Since he could reach the pinnacle of warriors, maybe I can too… as long as I can continue to survive in the battles to come…

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but glance at Chu Xie again, thinking it was impossible that her bottleneck level was 9... Of course, that was absolutely impossible, and later events proved my thoughts correct.

Melfis's combat talent was already the pinnacle I could imagine; the only one at his level was Fang Bu Ning, the granddaughter of Old Master Fang. The things they had honed from childhood were innate and could not be surpassed by anyone else, let alone by four levels.

"You're level 4! So impressive! A master!"

Chu Xie peeked at my test results.

I'd completely forgotten that the access was two-way. I didn't actually want her to see my level, but there was no way to stop her now.

"I don't like acting with low-level people."

I tried to use a way to hurt her pride to refuse her following.

"Just a few words of praise and you're already so conceited."

Chu Xie made a face and said, "I'm a mage; even at a low level, I can still be very useful, okay!"

A mage? I frowned. To be honest, this was the first time I'd truly interacted with someone of the mage class. In the system of [Divine Capital], all spells require at least one of "hand seals," "incantations," or "magic circles" to be effective, and performing these actions takes time. In encounters or ambushes, a single second of delay can be the difference between life and death; pure mages rarely survive in such situations.

Whether pure warriors, magic warriors, archer warriors, or pure archers, all are energy-based classes.

In any situation, we can create energy shields with satisfactory defensive effects to ensure a minimum survival rate. While attacks like energy blades and energy bullets involve energy gathering, it's still much faster than spells.

Because magic warriors can use both energy and magic, this increases the diversity of tactics, so many people gradually gravitate towards that direction during their adventures. Pure warriors are the most numerous, but a large portion of them are forced to remain so because they haven't had the opportunity to learn how to use magic.

The higher the level, the more opportunities there are to access high-level magical items. Therefore, those high-level players who can resist the temptation of magical equipment and continue down the pure warrior path are generally very powerful, like Yormgard, whom I fought in the Battle of the Dome. Only

those who, after reaching a combat level, focus solely on training their magical level have a chance of becoming a mage, which seems completely unrealistic to someone like me who prefers solo combat. While you're creating a magical shield, my energy blade can kill you ten times over.

So, I think there's only one possibility for a mage player: someone like Kuku.

The vice-president of TWP, the lover of the super monster gambler Paul… I can't think of any other way to cultivate a mage besides someone like her.

"You… are from Dreams."

I asked a terrifying question.

"Does a mage have to be a pet of a large guild?"

Chu Xie saw right through my thoughts. But I always felt that her insight into the mindset of high-level warriors was completely beyond what a level 9 ordinary warrior should possess.

"I can't think of any other reason besides that."

I continued to question her.

"Hehe, since you asked, I'll tell you the truth. Actually, I'm incredibly lucky. When my combat level was very low, I got a super high-level [Dark Rain] spellbook and a high-grade magic equipment just by luck, which is why I became a mage."

"...[Dark Rain]? Dark magic and water magic?"

I asked, frowning.

"No water magic..."

"Dark magic isn't meant for support at all!"

"I never said I was going to be your support!"

As a wanted criminal, I found myself arguing with her in a mercenary-filled place without even realizing it. I pulled out a cloth and covered my face, thankfully no one had actually noticed me yet.

Chu Xie laughed at my expression. I couldn't control my anger and left her behind, walking outside. The girl followed, laughing.

Combat level is a comprehensive test result that combines energy and magic power. Energy has a greater influence on combat level than magic power. In other words, Chu Xie's magic power level is roughly equivalent to the energy level of an ordinary level 8 warrior.

However, the significance of mages still lies in large-scale guild wars or at least multi-player team battles.

When a mage activates a magic circle, it's often the moment that decides the outcome of a large-scale battle—at least that's how I understand it.

The stage of drawing the magic circle's runes requires a large number of people to protect and restrain it, which is why mages are rarely seen.

Suddenly remembering something, I turned back to the mercenary's quarters. Chu Xie followed me back and forth, looking completely bewildered.

I ignored her and instead opened my personal information search device, typing in the words "[Dark Rain]".

There was information about it… but the price was in the tens of millions… which surprised me quite a bit. It seems there's no way to find out the girl's background from this book.

"What is this? Why don't I have it?"

Chu Xie asked curiously, watching me fiddling with the search panel.

"Are you a mercenary?"

"Yes, but I just registered not long ago."

"If the mission success rate is high, you can get it by spending some money."

Chu Xie didn't ask any more questions; it seemed she wasn't very interested in this search device.

I checked the messages, but there was still no news about Xingjian and Melfis. I sat in the mercenary's quarters, starting to consider what to do next.

"Hey, can we come together or not?"

Chu Xie sat in front of me, resting her face on the table and looking at me sideways.

I looked over. "If I say no, will you still come?"

She chuckled insincerely, watching my reaction with interest.

I snorted, then suddenly stood up and ran outside.

Chu Xie yelled "Ah!" and chased after me.

I rushed to the door, boosted my energy, and flew out of the city. As I flew, I heard Chu Xie yelling angrily behind me.

A level 9 mage? It would be a miracle if she could keep up with a level 4 warrior's half-full speed.

Half an hour later, I flew out of Nazarick City and landed in the air. Chu Xie had completely disappeared.

Although I was still quite curious about her, and I didn't dislike that girl, I really didn't want to cause any more trouble for myself. She definitely wouldn't kill me; that had already been proven. But this kind of girl, whom I couldn't see through, really made me uneasy.

To conserve energy, I switched to walking. This would also give me some time to think.

Where would Melfis go if he needed to recuperate? There are many medical clinics in Nathalie, and searching for them one by one would take an incredibly long time. Besides, someone like him wouldn't just stay in a hospital room all the time.

I remember the girl's house he took me to, Gosna… but considering that Nathalie and Gosna's town aren't even on the same continent, it's impossible for Melfis to have traveled that far with his serious injuries.

It's highly likely he's already found a nearby town and is recuperating under an assumed name. That makes finding him even more impossible, given the number of towns around Nazalius.

Reuniting with Melfis has become unrealistic, so I calmed myself and started considering how to find Asaga in the Demon Realm.

Melfis and Aza have both been to the Demon Realm, though only briefly, more like sightseeing. But I have no other leads. I can't exactly go to Dreams to ask for the Eye of the Dragon and the Broken Harp, can I?

I clearly remember hearing someone mention "three clues" when Xia Xi and I infiltrated Dreams—the Eye of the Dragon, the Broken Harp, and something else not in Dreams' possession that could allow a large number of players to enter the Demon Realm. I do

n't know if that thing is with TWP or the Destroyer. Judging from Paul's demeanor, he's well aware of the Eye of the Dragon and the Broken Harp, but he hasn't shown any particular interest, and I don't think he's very interested in the Demon Realm either. So the remaining clue is most likely with the Destroyer.

Dreams and TWP are the largest mercenary guilds on the Bronze Continent and this Azure Continent, respectively, while the Annihilators are the alpha mercenary guilds on the Crystal Continent. I've never been to the Crystal Continent, and I know the least about the Annihilators guild.

So, forget it, I decided to go back to the Bronze Continent first. If I still don't need to draw my sword when facing Azza, I'll ask him for clues, and while I'm at it, I'll also check with Gossina to see if she has Melfis—she might have some special means

to get there. Most importantly, I've already paid a deposit of 150,000 for some information in Red Pine City

… the information on the Shadow Eater and Runesian is still waiting for me to retrieve. After finding the right direction, I started accelerating again, flying towards the port, and arrived at my destination half a day later. ********** ... Having booked my ticket back to the Bronze Continent, I settled into the inn. Asaga had been by my side on the way here; many things had happened at sea, nothing short of harrowing. But on the way back, we were both alive, yet alone. She said she could manage for a year before she left, but I didn't know what that meant, or how difficult it would be. It felt like I had raised Asaga myself; there was an unbreakable bond between us. She went from knowing nothing to slowly learning everything about humanity, and I was the one who taught her everything. If I could, I wish I could teach her even more. But if she truly needed me to "save" her, then I would need even greater power… That so-called year wasn't just for finding a way to escape the Dark Side, but also for breaking through my current limitations. I lacked confidence. Watching my companions die one by one around me, I always felt I would be next; that feeling was always there. I raised my hand, trying to summon the bone artifact, but failed. The highest-level "Nirvana" seal on the ring was still active; I had no idea when it would be restored. Without the ring, I can't use the Soul Redemption Armor; without the Soul Redemption Armor, I can't bone the Divine Palace, and therefore can't use the Light Flow Blade. In other words, aside from the Divine Palace's one-hit slash, all my signature moves are just an unsigned check. That "Nirvana" is simply too powerful; only this price can justify its effect. The greatest and most balanced aspect of [Divine Capital] lies in this place; it offers you all possibilities, and you must be able to afford the corresponding price. This is true both here and outside. My flight was in the afternoon the next day, so I slept until dawn and then decided to go downstairs for something to eat. In the hotel lobby, Chu Xie was fast asleep, slumped over an empty table, which she had dragged to the doorway, blocking the way. I had no idea how she found me, so I stared at her blankly for a long time. Many ideas raced through my mind, but each one was ultimately rejected. Since I didn't know how she had followed me, those ideas remained just empty talk. Finally, I reluctantly sat down opposite her, then tapped the table to signal the waiter to order breakfast. Chu Xie was awakened by the sound of my tapping. She leaned on the table, tilted her head to look at me, and smiled smugly, then stretched, rubbing her dark circles. "How did you find me?" I said irritably. "Of course, I put a tracking array on you," Chu Xie grinned mischievously, hands in her pockets. "When did you do it? I didn't know." "Guess?" A tracking array isn't something that can be drawn in a minute or two, so it must have been during the time we were naked together… At night, I tied her up and did it from behind, so she didn't have a chance. In the morning, she was bouncing around in my arms, having climaxed twice, so she definitely didn't have a chance to draw intricate patterns. The answer was already clear… while I was sleeping. Having the answer, I didn't plan to ask any more questions. The waiter brought me milk and fried pork chops, and I began to satisfy my hunger. "Eating such greasy food so early in the morning, impressive!" Chu Xie said sarcastically, ordering something for herself as well. "Don't think you're so great just because you found me," I said between bites. "A magic array like yours can't last more than three days. I just need to use my speed advantage to outrun you for another three days." I knew nothing about her kind of magic array, but based on my long experience in the [Divine Capital], it was hard to imagine a tracking spell with her magical power that could last so long. Otherwise, the balance of this world would be in chaos. It seems my experience wasn't entirely unfounded, because Chu Xie wasn't dwelling on the spell's duration. "What's wrong with me following you? Is there any harm? You don't need to care if I live or die, why are you being so stingy?" I couldn't come up with a real reason to make her give up. Besides, if she followed, she might be able to continue enjoying delicious food... I was a little hesitant. "My desires are very strong. You might not be able to handle it if you follow," I said with a mischievous grin, trying to scare her with the idea of sex. Chu Xie's breathing became slightly rapid. She bit her lower lip, her face displaying an indescribable expression—a mix of nervousness, shyness, and amusement. "I knew it all along..." "You seem quite excited?" "Excited? Of course I am! I'm looking forward to the day you'll beg me for mercy... heh heh..." Chu Xie licked her cherry lips defiantly. I looked at her, blinked, and that rosy little tongue made me feel a surge of heat in my lower body. I stood up, grabbed her arm, and pulled her up. "What are you doing..." "Go to my room. Didn't you want me to beg for mercy?" "You're so shameless! Hey! Let me eat something first, okay?! Hey!"

Ignoring her protests, I dragged her upstairs. I stripped off her clothes piece by piece, and seeing she couldn't resist, she began panting as she removed my armor. After the intense battle of the past two days, she seemed to have developed a taste for it.

I don't know why, but I just really wanted to have sex with her. It was obvious she was also quite unable to control herself. And whenever we did it, we both felt incredibly good… maybe this was what they call physical compatibility.

"Don't you want something to eat?"

I raised my penis and pressed her head down.

"Get lost!"

Chu Xie pushed my hands away, resolutely refusing to serve me with her mouth. Maybe what happened in the hallway had left her with a psychological scar.

"Anyway, you'll have to eat it after you pass out, it's just a matter of time."

I teased her.

"This time I won't be first than you!"

Chu Xie retorted stubbornly while clamping my penis between her legs, trying hard to push me onto the bed.

It was another repeat of yesterday morning, but because she still had plenty of energy, she performed much better on top this time. As she lay on top of me, drenched in sweat, I was nearing my climax.

"You've improved,"

I said, lifting her up.

"Hmph..."

Chu Xie let out a lazy, defiant sound.

When I laid her face down on the bed and pressed myself on top of her, she angrily tried to flip me off and turn around. But she didn't have the strength, so I enjoyed the thrill of conquering Chu Xie from behind again while fully conscious.

Rear entry is deeper than usual, so her moans were much more beautiful than usual.

Just before climaxing, she even used all her strength to actively thrust her hips forward twice to meet my thrusts, making me tremble with pleasure as she screamed and climaxed, ejaculating for over ten seconds until I was completely exhausted.

Then she turned to look at me with hazy eyes, and I looked at her, panting.

Oh well... I gave in to myself, lowered my head to meet hers, and we finally kissed.

This kind of intense lovemaking wouldn't be perfect if we just stuck to a kiss.

As our tongues intertwined in excitement, I continued to thrust my still-erect penis into her wet, love-soaked vagina. Chu Xie moaned softly, my tongue inside her, her vagina contracting violently for a second time, and so did I.

Exhausted… so in the end, I missed my flight, damn it…

but it was worth it.
