The hot burning stench of smoke and fire flies into Corey's nose, ripping him out of his dreamless sleep. Still, he responded the same he always did when he was back home. With the energy of a sloth. Corey, calm as ever, rode the duvet down his legs and got out of the bed. He jogged, almost in tslow motion to the bathroom where he took a short but effective bath. Corey dried his skin, wore fresh clothes, and sat on the bed to change his bandages. He glanced to the right side of his room where the Triton laid. 'how did that get there? Oh right.' He finished with his bandages, and added the king's weapon to his inventory. Finally retreating from his room, to check out the cause of the fire. A purple incubus ran before him. "Sir, The queen has requested your presence in the dining area. Your mage is, not in the best mood."Corey cocked his left eye brow up. His chin nudges forward, and the incubus bows. Leading him down the hall. Eleanora is normally peppy, what could have turned he
They arrived at the Yonko village hours later. The submarine pushed up to the surface, Corey and the women got out through the latch and had to swim the rest of the way. To avoid being spotted, the boat was parked two miles from the island. With them swimming away from it, it sunk back into the sea. Eleanora had wanted to bring Greta but the large dragon would have been the easiest to spot. INFORMATION: THE YONKO VILLAGERANKS NOTHING- IT IS ONE OF THOSE VILLAGES THAT DOESN'T NEED A RANK. CONNECTED TO THE REALM OF THE YONKOS. POPULAR ATTRACTIONS: THE YELLOW BANIDINI FRUITSWARNING: THE PEOPLE HERE ARE VERY HOSTILE TO OURSIDERS AS THWY BELIEVE EVERYONE IS TRYING TO STEAL THEIR FRUITS. THIS TO NOTE: THE YONKOS OF THIS VILLAGE RANGE FROM VERY WEAK TO EXCEEDINGLY STRONG. BE CAREFUL'Great to know.' Corey thought. They dried off the second they got on land."The plan is difficult. We need to get to the tree, and collect six fruits."They stared at him, all waiting for him to add mo
"We have to find Verosika." Corey said aloud. He noticed the missing Yonko. It had been aiming for both Yumiko and Pamela, where could it have gone? It was huge in size. Unable to hide unless it turned invisible. "Yumiko, lead us to where you dropped the sack.""Do I have to get off your shoulders?" She inquired, wiggling her lower half around. "Please don't do that." Pamela begged. The woman was wearing only thing black panties and a bra. Aside that, her fur was the only other thing covering her body. And it didn't cover all parts, only certain areas. Corey felt the scratch of the lace against his naked neck. "You don't have to get off, just lead the way. Give me directions.""Okay, go straight."He couldn't nod due to the clamp of her thighs around his neck, so he walked. Yumiko was steady on Corey's shoulders, allowing him to run. It seemed like his increase in pace didn't affect her in the slightest. She only ate her bananas, and tried to remember the building she had dropped t
Yumiko poked Verosika's unconscious body for the sixteenth time, Corey should know. He's been counting each time she did it. NewAge shouldn't have said she was dumb, she was way past saving. "What am I supposed to do again?" She asked Corey, pouting at his frown. He rubbed his eyebrows, trying to regain the empty patience he had."You're supposed to heal her.""I've never heard of a beast kin that heals though." Eleanora stated. "how did you know about this again?""I read about it somewhere.""Oh, heal her." She responded. She'd said the same thing sixteen times now. If she liked Verosika again, Corey would lose his mind. He knew he could simy think of something that could help cure her, but he wanted to see what the beast kin can do. And how she heals people. "I'll give you all the bananas you can ask for. Just do it."Yumiko poked Verosika again, and every one groaned. The beast kin giggled, leaning close to Verosika's arm. She clamped her teeth onto the flesh, and the demon shot
"Corey, do you have any siblings?" Pamela had been looking at him for a while now, without saying a single word. He thought he might have been off the hook but from the firm look on the faces of each woman, they were not going to let him go without getting some information about him. "No, I'm an only child. Why do you ask?""Okay, this might sound crazy, but I think I've heard that name from somewhere. Maybe I'm misplacing it for Baldwin. I don't know, but we lived in a small town. I knew a Feldman girl in college. She lived in my dorm."Not sure what make of that information, Corey whisked his gaze down to Yumiko, who pouted at her stuffed toy. Using her claw to poke it. "It won't move, Corey." She turned to him with tears filling her eyes."It's a stuffed toy, dear, it's not alive."She poked it again, and Verosika scratched the back of her head knowing exactly what Yumiko was about to say before she said it. "But it won't move." The demon grunted out a frustrated noise. How can
Dinner ended with short conversations being passed around. Soon everyone retired to another part of the submarine, where Pamela had the idea for them to something fun. "I was too busy back at home to actually have a life. So, ladies, who wants to get drunk and sleep hear. We can watch the sea life and talk until the alcohol kicks in and we're passing out.""I don't think I can get drunk." Eleanora admitted. "YES! I'm up for some fun, and girl bonding!" Verosika hollered, jumping onto the couch. "I'm a dude." Corey reminded them. "Girl bonding does not include me." He moved to get up, but Yumiko was a step ahead of him. She rolled off a cartwheel, tossing her body high into the air and when she landed…WARNING: INCOMING LANDING, DANGER TO THE SHOULDERS.Corey could have moved but he didn't. He stayed in that position. Allowing Yumiko to land on his shoulders, her legs clamped to his neck and butt hit his spine before she fixed herself. Sitting in a much better way. The women waited
"Do we have this clear?" Verosika asked. She'd put on the cloak that came in the box, and had a large book laying on her thighs. "Yep!" "Tell me your names."Yumiko went first. "DAISY! I'm the youngest. I am called a bimbo sometimes. I don't know what bimbo means but it sounds funny to say.""It can't be a coincidence that she chose that character, over the others. I just won't believe it." Pamela says to Verosika, who just laughs. Yumiko seems happy with her choice. Placing her character on top of the cards like the others. The house of the game was set on the floor. The black and red cardboard reminded Corey of a monopoly game. "I'm spider. The broody bad boy." Eleanora says, she chuckles. Spider's backstory was so stupid to her. "I'm Lilith. The closet vampire.""And I am Kenneth. The saint. How did I end up with his character?" Corey glared at Kenneth. He was the most boring character Corey had ever seen. He was a simple billionaire kid, who avoided getting in trouble even tho
Pamela downed the contents in the glass in just one gulp. Her head immediately craned with small pain before it dispersed and she felt a wave of relief, washing over her body. "Let get back to the game!" Yumiko raised her hands and voice. She had no clue what the game was able but it seemed fun to pick up cards and see something happen. Corey nodded in support. Though he kept one keen eye on Pamela. If she started twitching, he was shutting the entire game down. Verosika turned the page backwards, searching for the narrative that had partytown as its subtitle. She was sure she had seen it somewhere. "Aha! Got it." She cleared her throat for effect, a whale like sound came from one of the fishes outside. Soon the beautiful view was covered, and darkness cascaded over the entire room. Candles automatically came on, and Pamela gripped her pants. While she did feel slightly more relaxed, the fear was still somewhere in her body. "Lilith and spider found a spot in the living room to d
