It was time to face the only one of the four that I considered an opponent. The other three had been my teachers, each one of them preparing me for this, and it was going to be a fight.
Each time I had been getting better, but something about this time said he was going to be serious, and I couldn't see him anywhere. I didn't take out any of my weapons. Instead, I prepared myself and opened myself up to the area around me.
I could feel him moving around me; Windorf was circling me, looking for an opening. I wasn't going to let him have it, and when he finally made his move, I was ready.
Everything happened in slow motion as I turned and slapped the fist away and then drove my own fist into Windorf's solar plexus area.
Windorf drove an open palm down onto my fist and pushed it to his stomach, where he absorbed the force and then jumped back, but I could read him now. I followed him, pulling my fist back as the two of us leaped in the air, and the moment th
"My daughter is what you might call a horrible and intolerable child that is next to impossible to get to do anything or to listen. I ask that you take good care of her if you decide to take her on. Her mother wanted nothing to do with her, and I have not been able to handle her," Windorf explained, and I gave him a raised eyebrow.If you weren't able to do it, what makes you think that I will?" I asked, and Windorf nodded his head."I don't think you will, but Mex does, and he is one of the very few people's opinions that I respect and will listen to. Mex believes that you are something different, and all of our tickets back to Gardania. Once we are back there, I will ask you to find the mother and try to talk some sense into her!" Windorf said while shaking his fist, but I shook my head to the last part."I will take you and your daughter there, but I will not be forcing anyone to do anything. If you force a useless parent to be good so they can get their chil
"Father can't come in here when the door is closed, and that's part of the reason why I make him so mad. No matter how strong he is, once I learned basic manipulation of Water and Air Magic, I was able to seal the door and create a buff that disrupts him if I want," Hydie explained to me in a much more mature voice that suited the full-figured body."Why do you like tormenting him so much? And are you just climbing all over me to get at him? I am game either way, but I would like to know which way my chain is getting pulled, if you know what I mean," I said as Hydie got down on the ground in front of me."I am not doing this to get back at my father; it's the complete opposite. I am doing things, so you want to take me along with you," Hydie said as she moved to take my shaft into her mouth, but I stepped back, starting to feel uneasy.I did not want her to think that this was what she had to do, and the idea of me just letting it happen made me feel ill.
"I like him, father; let's go," Hydie said as she danced out of the room past Windorf, who was still looking at me.I centered myself, and stood up straight, and walked forward. I prepared myself for what was about to come as I approached Windorf with my eyes locked with his.<Make it count; it will be a long time before you get another chance to talk to Time.>Hero's voice was the last thing that I heard before I was back in that place as I pressed my hand to Windorf's chest. Nothing had changed, and then Time asked me one more question, but then it became something completely different."Do you think that your Soul is worth its weight? I asked this not as Time, but as the man that you questioned. You asked me this very same question before we agreed to this, and I am still unsure how to answer it. I know why you choose to do this, but I don't understand the question. You don't know what I am talking about, and I might have overstepped myself, but
I closed my eyes briefly; I needed to take everything that I had just seen in. Time or Mark was someone that I was obviously close to, but I disagreed with.I could see why I would have trouble stomaching this problem, but there was something else; the Demons. A Demon at the center of this all, and I was helping demons.I knew that all demons couldn't be the same, but I would have to remember that Mex and the rest were still Demons. The one at the Center of Everything was trying to flood all the worlds with Demons, but I had given up everything about me to put a plugin on them.<What are you talking about? What happened?>I can't tell you, and it wouldn't matter if I did; none of it has anything to do with you. We are both playing different games on the same chessboard. The only difference is that I have already played as you, to reach for a spot as a god, but It wasn't to my liking.
There was a lot to go through, but not a lot had changed with my stats, but I did get a better look at the totems, and I was interested in Kali's totem; it looks like I wasn't going to need the help from the system for that.That would leave Veronica, but If this System was going to work in the way I thought it did, then I would be given something to help, maybe change her somehow. That might be asking for a lot, but at this point, I really wasn't sure what a lot should be constituted at.Hydie squealed with excitement as I burst forward; the Wind Force that the Pact lent me boosted me. The Primal Totem made me fast and strong, which made me even faster, but there was an edge to this Pact.The wind is strong and can be violent, but it is also very fragile. Because of my Water Sphinx Totem, I was able to feel that my body was actually weaker, but I was being pumped by the Wind Force.I burst out of the tunnel onto the plateau and then turned to the path fo
I didn't bother going to the Demon Fish Village; I would see them when I returned from rescuing Missy. For now, I ran into the rolling waves until I was up to my waist, and then I took a deep breath and dove in.The ocean water was cool and refreshing after running so hard, but I perceive hot and cold differently now. I felt them, but I was no longer affected by temperatures outside of the normal.I released the Water Sphinx Totem and then activated the Water Undine Totem, and suddenly I felt a massive boost to all my senses. Even my Wind Pact felt stronger, and then I got an alert that popped up, and I swam forward.[Totem Sync] Acquired!{When 10 Meters from a Bonded Partner, the Totem Marks power increases.}"How are you going to find these people? It's dark, and you can't see in the dark, right?" Hydie asked me, but I pointed to my ear.I could already hear the vibrations from the Sahuagin; they never seemed to stop mourning their women.
Hydie put a hand on Shirzik's arm, and the creature began to change. I don't know if Hydie could read my mind, but I was looking at Aquaman on the Juice once she was down.[Designer Reality Merge Fluke] Acquired!{5% chance for Experienced Designers Touch to become physical and tangible, not just an illusion.}"What is this?" Shirzik asked as he touched his handsome face.Wow, I might have to get Hydie to give me a touch-up after; The Ugly Fucker was looking better than me! I was the Ugly Fucker now!"You are the lucky winner in this draw, it looks like, and now you are stuck like this," I said with a grin."You're kidding me, right? I even sound better! Even the ones of us that are average are leagues above the Barracuda men now! BWAHAHA!" Shirzik laughed out in joy, and the other Sahuagin joined him with cheers.They would no longer have to cry out the horrible howls, but this was only half the battle. The other half was getting the
I had never seen anything like the colossal horned four-story tall octopus that was floating forward into full view. I was still nearly three stories tall, but this creature was vast and looked like it wanted to get handsy with all those tentacles.What could this female creature want with me? What was this thing anyway? Octopus didn't have horns or grow this big.Yup, there I go again with that idiot first-world brain. It didn't matter what this grayish blush multi-armed horned disaster looked like, it seemed to have a problem with me, and I needed to deal with it."Who are you, and what do you want?" I asked after Hydie fed me air to fill my big lungs."Me? I am The Goddess of the Sea! What do I want? It's quite simple, I will consume you, and then I will reform and bind your body with my magic! After that, I will empower you and use your system to help me finally kill that dirty little tramp and her idiot of a flying father! KACK KACK KA KA!" The Gray
