I walked beside Mex and Horus with Beeno resting my arms. She had seemed to become a completely different woman after I had hit her with the blast of super-charged pleasure.
Now, the angry little woman was as cuddly as a kitten, which was quite a bit better than the other way. The rest of the group followed us, but I could feel their eyes on Beeno and me.
"As I said, this is a very new experience for Beeno. The other women are curious. I am sure to know why the strongest of them would act like this," Horus explained as we walked along the rolling shattered landscape, and then mentioned, "I will be able to explain it better when you meet my partner."
It seemed to go on endlessly, rolling away like a giant living wall. The landscape we walked one was distinctly honey bee yellow and ruby red sands, but it was beautiful in a strange way.
There were flat rock shelf parts, but no one was near them, and I was curious to know why.
"Food Rocks, they are mag
It was hard to tell if this was going to create more trouble or help, but I could feel four new distinct presences enter this world. Nushi and Hydie, but also two other things that I couldn't read from this distance, more monsters."Well, I hope it's something like a pair of Gnolls," I said, but Mex laughed out loud at me."Don't get your hopes up, but at least Nushi should have no problem finding us. The real question is, what is with her power?!" Mex asked after his laugh, and I agreed.There was something different about her, and I felt a significant increase in her power, but it was not to the Reading System. Whatever change Nushi had gone through, she was now stronger than Doa had been.I wondered what that would mean for her when she was no longer a Demon, or any of the women really? There was so much to learn, but I had time once we got off the island, and I planned on making sure I was more than ready to enter the continent of Gardania."Do
Using a massive watery fist, I shot off and connected with three Invisazards, retracting all parts of me as I did. I felt that Beeno had climbed down now and retrieved the last part of myself.I was falling, but Nushi started to retreat at high speeds while darting back at me. Once I was whole, I changed aspects and threw Wataluga as she zipped past.I felt him connect with them, and I burst with flames, but I was scooped out of the air in the mouth of an Invisazard.I grunted, but it was just the pressure.I was energy incarnate, I felt no pain, but these creatures would.[Ready? This is going to feel like you're getting hit by a truck and then ripped apart, then back together about three times. Typically you shouldn't be able to do something like this, but this world is thick with energy, so I will force you to overfill and stretch your energy reserves.]'That sounds painful.'[So does dying. This will be like nothing you have ever
The fire gathered into me, and the creatures tried to strike, but I incinerated them out of the air like scraps of paper. Fire whirled around me in whipping tendrils that struck out on their own as I blasted out torrents of fire.Still, they kept coming, and now they were starting to get bigger.I didn't care; somehow, I knew that this was all preventable, and it never should have happened. This was the result of something idiotic, I could feel it in my soul, and these creatures were another perversion that should have never been.So I would unmake them.[Three big ones are incoming, far above, but they are starting to descend, and they are much older and stronger. Prepare yourself; there is no escaping, have no choice now, you must fight.]No part of me dreamed of it. The fear that had briefly touched my soul had been wiped from existence, and all that remained was my anger and frustration.I twisted and shot fire at a larger one that got c
'Other side of the planet?'[I am not sure how it happened, but you were sucked in and blacked out. Then you were outside this cave, and we were almost eaten! Luckily this angry tripod decided to chase the Paper Snake away, or you would not have woken up!]'Wait, I came directly here? Are you sure there wasn't some kind of pause or something like that? I was in a tunnel surrounded by streaming light, and I was talking to myself, or something like that.'[No, I was tracking the others, and they were moving at the same pace. You were talking to yourself? That hardly seems strange; you do that all the time, haha!]'No, you burnt tool! I was talking to myself, but it was confusing, almost like I was inside my own head. I think I am starting to figure out what happened, but at the same time, I still don't understand why it happened.'[Well, I think you should put that thought off for a moment and deal with the three-legged grouch. He looks like he is st
"You… Wait… You, no, you must be joking? I have lost friends in that wall, and I know that they died!" Tchick finally choked out as he waggled a finger at me accusingly.[Don't worry, Needle Dick, I feel the same way!]'Shad up.'"I wish I was, but we were attacked by Invisazards-," I started to say, but Tchick cut me off, waving his hands frantically."Invisa-what?" Tchick asked in confusion."The...err!" I grunted as I tried to lift my arm, but there were torn and pulled muscles in both my arms and shoulders."Insiva..ble? Do you mean the Carnica? The Reflections of Death? No way, nope, nuh-uh! There is no way that you fought even one of them!" Tchick almost squealed out.The little red man reminded me of one of the red fan-powered tube people they put outside at fairs, furniture stores, and Car dealerships."There were a lot more than one. I killed well over a hundred of the small ones, but then the massive thr
I was having a hard time thinking, but I had enough brain to figure out where I had gone wrong in my assumptions about Fireden and the others. I had forgotten that they were really only parts of their real primal bodies that I didn't even know the location of yet."That means that the Demons did break this world, but it just wasn't The Scourge. Emfirza needs to be removed, but there is not a chance that you could fight even a Shard of him. Something as old as that couldn't be fought if you had all four of us," Fireden explained, and I grunted, giving an almost imperceptible nod."Yeah… You're… Not whole… Come back… Again," and I started to paint again and felt dizzy."Yes, that is the only way that this place could be saved and returned. Now, time for a nap," Fireden said as my eyes peeled open with my mouth in a soundless scream as my leg was stretched.Then the world went black.[Change to View of Fireden and Tchick]
[Nafa Village]"You can feel him! Why aren't we going to get him?!" Nushi growled as she held her father in her fist up in the air.MEx was really getting tired of this, and the fact that the last person to do this was the same one that said this exact thing. Nixi had said this was going to happen if he put it inside of her, and low and behold, Mex was floating in the air."You know why we can't go! Zack is out of reach right now, and we had to wait for him! No, put me down! I am still your father, and you shouldn't be taking after your grandmother! This world is strange, and I know you think you are strong, but you saw what attacked him!" Mex growled back, and Nushi finally realized herself and put her father down.After shrinking down, Nushi turned from Mex and stretched her hand out to the side. Her book appeared there, and she started to browse through her father's story, but it was the same thing."Why did Dao have to pick you? Why didn't he t
"Sorry about waiting outside, but I was interested in the way that you were acting, and I had to eavesdrop!" Horus the Nafa Male Leader, but Mex grinned at him."I knew you were there, but it must be more than just curiosity. What did you need from me?" Mex asked."I was first curious about the same as your daughter, but now all I want to know is what you have in your head. What did they put in there? And what is it really?" Horus asked as he walked into the room.The Leader of the Nafa looked concerned, but it didn't seem to be what he was asking about, but Mex still told him what he knew. Horus might not look like much in his dress, and he was Mex's superior quite a few times over."Half of an S rank Water Demon, want him? It might be good to let out to play with Emfirza, but that would be the end of this world. I haven't had the heart to tell the kid what we had to do to the last word; there is nothing left," Mex said as he remembered the Demon Tidal w
