I was awakened by Terra's gentle voice and her touch. For a second it seemed to me that we were still on the ship in my cabin. My hand in a familiar motion, learned all these days, tried to pull to her soft hip, but only stumbled upon the arm of the chair. There was a short chuckle from Eva nearby, and I still forced myself to open my eyes.“Young master, we have arrived,” Reya said with a smile, noticing that I had finally woken up.Looking around a little bewilderedly, I rubbed my eyes with my palm trying to drive them half asleep. To my surprise, I actually managed to fall asleep during the flight. I feel slightly rested, but still wrung out, like the old, weathered lemon wedge at the far end of the fridge. The one you glance at but forget to throw away.Terra, who was sitting next to me, handed me a glass goblet filled with some kind of red transparent liquid. On its surface, bubbles were merrily jumping bursting one after another. I looked at the cat a little in bewilderment.“Ma

Servants passed by us, each courteously bowing to me. Young boys and girls, but most of all it was the latter. I saw guys from the strength of two or three, that's all. No more. Not in demand, I guess. Reya quietly fell behind us, turning at the first fork and hurried to another part of the white buildings.Everything looked so neat and sterile, beautiful and well-groomed. If I get the opportunity to settle somewhere in this world and time, I would like it to be the same. Buy a bunch of robots, have a harem of slaves and live to your heart's content. As far as I understand, this is not prohibited by law. Probably, as usual - you can have one wife, and at least heaps of concubines. The main thing is that they do not kill each other out of jealousy ... But how on the other hand? Can a woman have concubines, or how to call it correctly? And if so, how do their other husbands feel about it? Hmm... so many questions in my head...It was cool and comfortable in here. Not such a scorching he

Once the first course was finished, Freemius decided to start the conversation again. Although, I was hoping that we would all go about our business. Sitting here was uncomfortable and unnerving, I had not experienced this in a long time. But I can't get up and leave. Threaten with trouble. They can block access to money in my personal account, if any, and without money it will be hard. For who knows where the search will lead us.- Crillius, verified information has reached me that you have crippled the future husband of your elder sister. The one who is the son of a respected person with whom we have a business relationship,” began to dryly say “father” while looking at me.Her sister rolled her eyes, unable to contain her surprise. Apparently no one told her about it. At the same time, my conscience pricked me. Crap! Who knew that everything would turn out like this?! More precisely, they warned me ... Damn it. But you can't undo what's been done, you can only fix everything.There

The system delighted me with such a sudden notification. If she had another sound alert, I'm sure I would have jumped on the spot in surprise like a street cat. For in front of me, suddenly, unexpectedly, was a witch. Real witch! Tria's system won't lie, I've checked, but how quickly it happens to me.No wonder she mentioned that my fate is closely connected with the witches and their future. This pseudo-goddess was specifically looking for such a person among the streams of ether, who was destined to help girls with cool abilities. It's just that everything happens so unexpectedly.I decided to visit Creel's home planet and on you, there was a witch. Right next to you, no need to go far. Although our task was quite different ...- Creel? Is that really you?! - the voice of the witch sounded in surprise in front of me.I finally forced myself to break free from the captivity of my own thoughts. It’s not good to dive into yourself when you are introduced to a person, or rather, I get t

Atria obediently paused the video, then turned it off completely as soon as I nodded. After all, she is my AI, and not someone else's to carry out other people's commands.Senoria was still in prostration from what she saw, but Lilia looked at me as a hero.“That's incredible, Creel! You fought them so hard, you risked your life! Where did you learn it?Yeah, that's one of those questions that ought to be given pretty convincing answers. How long has the guy been away from home? Month? Year? I do not think that a person is capable of learning in such a short time what I can do and become as strong as the system allows.- I just remembered everything we were taught at the academy, - shrugging my shoulders, I come up with an excuse, - You understand, stress, adrenaline, fear of death ...- It's incredible! Lilia exclaimed louder, forcing Senoriya to open her eyes in surprise.The witch looked at me like I was a superstar who stopped her mile-long cortege near her to give an autograph an

Lily asked a question, her eyes flashing with embarrassment, and she blushed slightly. Somehow, too quickly, she saw in me a man whose compliments can make you blush so much, in principle, Senoria did not lag behind, but she was more embarrassed by the compliment itself. Still, she will not look at her brother in a different way. I don't care what she thinks of me though. If everything works out, then I will soon dump, from here forever forgetting about their existence, I hope.That thought made me feel at peace, but it still didn't feel right. The same feeling when you put a blank white sheet on the table, everything is smooth and empty, draw a straight line with a pencil and bam! She grimaces at the crumb of bread lying under the leaf. That's how it is now. Looking at Senoria I had a similar unpleasant impression. Maybe it's a prick of conscience, or hidden brotherly love hidden in this body somewhere deep, deep, but the thought that she will remain here alone surrounded by this fam

Yes, I already figured it out! And so I feel how the blood in my veins freezes from just one piercing look, filled with unprecedented power. If a daughter can boil me alive, what can a mother do?- Crillius? You are back! - the woman exclaimed joyfully, embracing me and pressing me to her luxurious chest.I had the courage not to jump away with a frightened squeal from her, but to allow myself to be pressed against the pleasant soft hemispheres peeking out from behind the corset.Elena herself was a stunningly beautiful and spectacular woman. Such a touch of mystery and strength, grace, beauty and danger. She is like the heroine of noir detectives of the sixties of the twentieth century. Who came to the detectives in the office asking them to investigate the infidelity of their husbands, and certainly promised huge trouble. But in the end, having become widowed and rich, they remained with the main character.- Yes, El ... Lady Elena, - I corrected myself in time, and was finally rele

I'm runing. Darkness is gathering around. Bottomless, impenetrable, viscous as pitch. Her long tentacles try to grab my legs, but I don't let them. Every time I feel that tenacious hugs are getting closer, I force myself to speed up. It helps, but not for long. As if trying to keep me from escaping, the darkness makes the air thicken. It becomes something like a jelly, through which you have to break through with difficulty. I'm afraid to stop. Everything in my mind, drowning in pure concentrated fear, tells me to move. I can't let the darkness overtake me. It is forbidden…The strength is leaving me. I am an ordinary person. Simple Kirill from an orphanage in Moscow. Not awakened, not the so-called "Shield of the Witches", I am nobody. A shadow running from the darkness that wants to swallow her. I need light, it will warm, give me strength, will not allow me to dissolve. It will make my contours clearer and more expressive, preventing them from merging with the environment. My fear
