Shakkos

Extra long chapter for lack of actual plot progression. I hope this will help. Check the title of the next chapter at the end of this chapter as well!

Along the largest river of the continent, there was a man flying at high speeds. Yet, even though he was going very fast, the monsters and creatures around the river didn't even glance at him. It looked like the man was invincible to them despite the fact that he was wearing a very eye-catching black flame around his body. At the same time, the man seemed to be looking around at all the creatures he passed, being amazed by their looks and colors. Suddenly, he started to slow down while passing right above a monster that seemed to have caught this mysterious man's attention. He slowed down until a complete stand-still right in the sky. He looked majestically floating above the land as if overseeing it. Right after that, the man whispered something almost inaudibly; "Appraisal." This individual seemed somewhat surprised by what he had found. He descended from the sky and stopped right in front of the creature that had surprised him.

At the start, I was mesmerized by the beauty of flying and watching around this fantastic scenery. Yet, after an hour or two I was already bored with looking around. Right after that, I decided to start looking at the monsters to perhaps learn more about them, after all, when I created the setting for the world, I just thought about beasts, monsters, and aggressive beings. I didn't give much info about what I expected except for the danger that monsters represent to civilization as a whole. And from what I could observe I realized that there are thousands of E rank monsters roaming around this place. At the same time, there are hundreds of D rank monsters hunting or sleeping in a few places along the river as well. In addition to that, I've seen that there are a few dozen C ranks here and there. Mostly being the chief or alpha of a certain group, owning a small piece of territory and protecting it from other beasts, and even leading some aggressive groups to hunt other beings here and there. I have yet to see a B rank or even an A-ranked one.

To be honest, I was hoping to get a subordinate or two, yet I couldn't find any B rank creature so I was starting to become somewhat disappointed. But suddenly, while I was flying and overlooking the beasts from the sky, I was pleasantly surprised to encounter what seemed to be a special kind of monster. It was a very gigantic, purple looking moth. I was quite entranced for a while, after all, most monsters seem to have just the elemental affinities in addition to light and darkness magic, so it was a very big surprise when I saw that it actually had Poison for an affinity. My flight came to a halt and I slowly descended from the skies while directly looking at what I was already considering my first minion. I came right in front of it and decided to watch it for the next hour because I was feeling very intrigued by its behavior, and how it would attack other monsters.

After landing and getting a good spot to see what it would do, I chose to carefully study its status. "Appraisal." I muttered, barely audibly. Immediately after saying that word, a big floating blue box came into existence right in front of my eyes and read as follows;

I was quite startled by the new information my favorite blue box was giving me. I realized that there were four different categories from my own status. First was 'age' that took over the 'Form' category. That seemed very simple and maybe not that useful. The second was what replaced Partner number; Affection number. I started to look over what it was, its meaning, and how it worked and after a half an hour I could be considered an expert in this. The affection value worked from 0 up to 100. It was divided into 11 different levels of affection and each level worked differently. The first level is called 'Stranger'. Its value oscillates between 0 and 9 and the value rises by how much of an impression the first glance at someone left. It's available to anybody who gives you a glance or watches you for a second. The second level is named 'Aquientance'. For this level, you have to say at least a sentence to the other person. By what you say, the time you speak, and the importance of the content, you could get a score between 10 and 19. This level is also available to anybody as long as they speak to you. The third stage is known as Familiar. It portrays that you are more than just a casual acquaintance with each other and that you come in contact with them on a regular basis. Of course, it doesn't mean that you have to be profound or personal in that level of familiarity, you just need to talk regularly to the same person in a fixed period of time and is free to anybody. This level starts at 20 and ends at 29. 

Right after Familiar stands Friend or Enemy. To reach this level of intimacy, you should be well-versed in the other person, know what they like and dislike, talk about private stuff, and hang with each other for fun at least weekly. You have to get a certain level of trust from the other person and at the same time be able to trust them. On the other hand, you can also become enemies with each other. For this kind of relationship, you will need to somewhat hate and dislike each other. Find faults, mess with, and fight over petty things with the other person. Finally, try to annoy and have enough knowledge to criticize and insult one another. This stage is characterized by 30 to 39 in the score value and is available to anybody too.

The next step in this kind of relationship is to become Best Friends or to be upgraded form just an enemy to become each other's Nemesis. As the name in this stage suggests, one would need to be intimately related to the other person to become one's Best Friend. You would need to become someone of relevance or at least with significant importance to someone else. You will be required to know about secrets, personal affairs and even to know and interact with this someone's immediate social circle. It is a necessity to be deeply involved in the other's personal life to the point where you truly know everything that the other has to say. Contrary to what was just explained, to become a Nemesis is no easy task either. For this relationship to be achieved you will need to try to destroy the other constantly. You will be looking for opportunities to humiliate, harm, and even damage seriously your biggest enemy. You are required to absolutely hate and feel disgust for whatever the other person does and it becomes impossible to see anything good about one another. This level is displayed by a value of 40 till 49 and will become the last stage where it is available for anybody. Finally, one is able to differentiate if somebody is a friend or an enemy by watching the color of the affection value. Green means friend, red is equal to enmity. The same applies to Best Friend and Nemesis.

Subsequently, one enters the phase of partner choosing. Everything will start with Attraction or Interest but not everybody is able to reach this level of affection. For someone to get this affection score, they would first need to be capable of feeling attraction for somebody. For example, a heterosexual man would not be able to pass the Best Friend stage with a gay one or, a gay man would not be able to feel attracted to a woman, thus, making him incapable of passing the 49 points mark with her. Second, one will have to be somewhat enticed by the other. They will repeatedly glance over to see what the other person is doing if they are near each other and may try to strike a conversation. Of course, anything that happens would be enough to drop the affection rate to any of the previous stages if one loses interest. One will be interested in someone if their affection reaches 50 and doesn't go over 59.

Following that, one would reach the Liking stage. This is a stage that starts at 60 and goes all the way to 69. When one starts to constantly wonder about the person one was interested in or attracted to and when they start to seek that person out, try to demonstrate their own good qualities one has to entice the other, means that the attraction grew enough to start thinking about liking. They will try to get together with the person they fancy and flirt constantly. When a relationship continues to develop and two people are already together demonstrating emotions or behaviors openly, (like; feeling happy, realized, safe, horny, and so on), they will be able to fall in Love. The values range from 70 to 79 but what is most surprising is that as long as one loves another person, liking somebody else will be impossible. At most, they would feel interested or attracted to somebody else. To start liking someone else, the love value would need to drop into the liking category once again, meaning that they would like two people.

Starting here is where things start to go out of control. What comes after Love is Obsession. This is the start of the journey to higher levels of affection, and what a person does to get obsessed will become the foundation for later stages. There are basically 2 main ways to reach the obsession category. The first one is to continue to love your partner more and more until it will start to become the center of one's own life. It will start to give purpose to some smaller things and will always be present in their mind. Those who reach such a level are always thirsty for more of their partners, they will even start to know more about their lover than what they know about themselves. On the other hand, the second one is slightly harder because one will need to continuously cultivate their own affection value without being in a relationship, meaning their chosen partners may not necessarily like or even know about them. What once was a slight attraction, became everything they aimed for to later transform into 'you are the one'. They will continuously look for more about their other half to please their own fantasies or to satisfy one's own desires. This stage exists between 80 and 89 points and will make it impossible for them to enter any of the last three stages previously mentioned; (Attraction, Liking, Love).

Next, once the obsession passes a certain threshold it will become worse, and depending on the mentality, actions, delusions, and pleasures one gained, they will become different types of Stalkers. Because of that, the present stage is also named Stalking and 90-99 is the range where it will oscillate. The mentality one needs to reach this level of affection may differ but they all have one thing in common: everything revolves around the target of their stalking. The main way to become one is to constantly follow the target around to gain pleasure over anything they do. The main differences though are how they express their love, like for example; some are willing to do anything to be with them enslaving themselves to the objective of their love, some are overprotective and distrust their environment with the intention of safe-keeping their partners or even enslaving them, some are delusional and believe that the other person loves them as well, some try to secretively learn, collect and observe their beloved from afar, and some lust over their partner to the point they think that their target is always inviting them.

'Want it or not, you already are a part of their property' is how the affection value of 100 introduces itself. This level is considered a very pronounced mental illness and is known as Love Crazy or Yandere. These people are not predictable and basically are mentally broken. They can't differentiate reality from their delusions. They live for their partner and will die with them. There exists nothing besides the target of their affection. The possibilities are endless.

Continuing with the new categories on my favorite blue box, there was Condition. It is pretty intuitive what it is. Basically, it shows the condition of one's own body. There isn't much to add there as it is very descriptive and anything worth mentioning is listed there. Finally, the last new thing was the Emotion tab. There, the feelings and things the mind felt were described in simple words. This function is also pretty easy to understand and doesn't hold much more of an explanation. 'This is gonna be so useful and practical, it will even help me know how much power I should put into my charm skill should I ever need it.' I thought while feeling very pleased about my observation skill. 

While I was learning about the new categories that appeared on the blue box, an hour passed somewhat quickly. In that time I managed to learn a lot about this Moth King, to be more specific, how he hunts, his poison-related spells and skills, and finally something that really surprised me. This monster is actually capable of summoning lesser monsters of his kin to do things for him. In this hour, I watched how he hunted other monsters, poisoned a few beasts, and how he made use of the ones under him. And after thinking about this monster's intellectual mind in addition to his rare affinity a feeling of satisfaction rose in me, so I decided to make him into my first subordinate. For that, I went and deactivated my stealth ability. Immediately after that, the creature seemed incredibly frightened by managing to appear in front of it so casually that it tried his best to escape. It fled as quickly as it could and after a few minutes, it stopped and attempted to hide behind a few trees and rocks. Once it decided to relax I teleported right behind him and spoke: "Are you done?"

The creature seemed to twitch at the words I spoke, especially as it was amazing that it could understand what I said. It slowly moved with the big legs that supported him and turned around only to find me looking right back at him. He appeared to have frozen itself, maybe he tried to play dead or something? Anyways, I decided to use my Charm skill to stop wasting my time so I thought 'Charm' in my mind. Following this action, the creature who looked so tense that it would die any time of a heart attack slowly relaxed. It gave me the impression that his complete being went from the deepest pit of hell straight into the gates of heaven.

"Appraisal." My voice resounded with a tinge of curiosity.

'So it jumped straight into the maximum available value in one go, huh. Hehe, so this is the power of -S- rank in CHA plus Charm skill. Well, this way will be a lot more convenient if I want to make an army of monsters.'

"I'm your new Lord. You may address me as Your Majesty or Lord Mortimer. You are free to do whatever you want while I don't need you, but if I request your presence you are to heed my call immediately. Do you understand?"

"Squeak."

Even though I understood that is said yes, my mouth couldn't help but twitch a little when I heard the gigantic Moth squeaking. 'So moth's squeak huh...'

"You may leave my presence now."

"Squeak." The moth responded to me but just as it was about to take into the sky I shouted.

"Actually, wait!" The purple insect stopped right into its tracks and looked at me once again.

"Do you have information about any settlements nearby? I'm not interested in those from monsters I only care about those made by beings that look similar to me. It doesn't matter if they feel different, base your answer only with your sight."

"Squeak. Squeak. Squeak. Squeak."

"Mmm, I see. I'll call you if I'm in need of anything else. You may leave now." Not waiting for my first minion to answer me, I immediately take flight into the sky and flew in the direction he detailed. It looks like he had come in contact with a few humanoid beings so there's a big chance that I'll find signs of civilized life soon. I was in the air with my stealth for at least an hour before I arrived at my first destination. At the start, I was wondering which race I would come into contact first, but after reaching the settlement my anger and dissatisfaction increased at how stupid I was. Why? Well, the settlement was a goblin one. After exhaling, I continued my journey in the direction of what I hoped were not more goblins.

I traveled at least 2 hours after starting to notice on the horizon some signs of light construction and farmland. Simultaneously, I noticed how thin the forest was starting to get. I guess it makes sense, after all, you need visibility to know if you are being attacked and farming space for the fields. Once I reached there, my smile almost bursted out of my face. 'ELVES!' I exclaimed inwardly. I accelerated, just to reach what looked like a distant place in around 3 minutes. When I arrived I was absolutely stunned. When one reads in those fantasy novels about the starting village where the MC gets to know a cute girl or saves everybody from some impending doom or whatever, the village is always described as the countryside, cozy, beautiful, and full of life place. So when I saw what was in front of me I couldn't help but exclaim inwardly 'Ain't these some shabby, badly damaged wood sheds? What kind of shit hole is this? Everything is dirty and the villagers seem very unhappy and unhealthy. They look somewhat thin as well.' It didn't look like there were over 300 of them, I saw approximately 200 females and 80 males. Whatever, to be honest I just need a map that has a whole continent or at least the country so that I can update my Memory Map skill.

And thus, my hunt for a map began. Stealthily, I looked in every shed and what could be considered as some badly made houses. I was quite disappointed to see how trashy these houses are. They don't look like the ones in anime or novels! Where is the kitchen? The dining room? Bathroom? Livingroom? They only had 2 chambers with 2 badly made beds plus a place to store a few clothes and place a candle. Then there was a small room with a fireplace in the center of it, a couple of chairs and benches, and a table. Finally, there was a storage room that had a few vegetables, wood, and another few tools like buckets and shovels. Some sheds didn't even have doors inside! What the hell!

I explored every house with the hope to find something useful but most of them had just trash or useless things. At least not all of them were useless as 5 buildings were considerably better. These were the badly constructed houses. It seems that one is the place where some kind of apothecary lives with her family. Another one was where a huntress and butcher stayed. The other three were a blacksmith, a bakery, and finally a merchant. If there was a village chieftess, I couldn't identify her just by her belongings. Now, why did I say that all of them weren't useless? Because there was a merchant there, that implies there are other places where she gets her merchandise from. After all, no one had a candle workshop or made olive oil either, so these must come from outside. I started to follow her around. After she closed her front door and stored her products she went to her husband to get something to eat. Her son was there as well watching his father cook some vegetables. They talked about how much food left they had, how many days till winter, and other unimportant things until, finally, they mentioned something worthwhile.

"Mom, did they answer our request yet?" Said a very weak and slightly ugly looking young man.

"No, that old hag Wynwenys hasn't said anything yet." Answered his mother while munching some potatoes.

"Why? Does her daughter truly not like me at all? Maybe that manwhore son of the apothecary seduced her?" Sounded his voice somewhat depressed.

"Sigh, it's not that at all son. As far as I'm aware, she's still hunting for meat in the forest and should be arriving tomorrow morning. Also, don't worry too much about her, there is no way that old hag would let the opportunity of our families coming together get out of her grasp. So, even if she ain't to keen about it, she will probably end marrying you."

"Ahhh, I hope she hurries, I really can't wait anymore."

"Be patient, and after she accepts I'll lend you two the carriage to go to the nearest city so you can get married at a cathedral."

"But mom, won't you come with us?"

"I'm already too old for that. My body is not what it used to be. At the same time, I've never been to a city. When I and your dad married each other, there was a small chapel open in the nearest town. But 60 years ago, it was decreed that only at a cathedral, one is able to get married. From what I know she's already been to Lerankadi a few times before and it should help you to get a look at the capital as well. As a merchant, it is important to see other places. By the way, don't forget to buy some goods too, they will sell pretty well once you two come back."

"Thank you, mom!"

'I think I found my guide.' I thought with a cheeky smirk.

'Wynwenys and a huntress... so it's the butcher. Now, do I wait for her inside her house or should I go look around the forest? I guess I'll sleep there and wait for her to come back. That sounds easier.' Simultaneously I exited the merchant's house and headed into the butcher's property while pondering about my next move. 'A hunter, huh. As far as I've seen most men's power level is around 11 while most women are near 17. That's over 70% stronger because the power level system is not calculated linearly, it's actually an exponential one. Of course, there are a few exceptions like the woman who worked the smithy. She was level 23. She is currently the highest leveled person inside the village. '

After thinking and walking for 5 minutes, I reached the butcher's home. Silently approaching the window I looked inside to see if there was any movement. From my inspection, it seemed the woman surnamed Wynwenys was asleep as the interior was dark and only soft snoring could be heard. I casually extended my hand over to the door and used magic to unlock it. I walked inside the home and started to head in the direction of the snoring. Inside one of the chambers was a mature looking elf lightly dressed sleeping alone. Is her husband not around? Dead, maybe? She could have been impregnated after casual sex too so maybe she doesn't have a husband at all. In this world, men were expected to maintain their purity until marriage but women didn't need to have to do that. She is slightly good looking but somewhat old already. She was 118 years old. That is the equivalent of a 59-year-old woman. Elves are able to live till 200 but most of them should die before that. Maybe another 20 years left? Adding the fact that the elf who was interested in her daughter was around 42, her daughter should be 38 or 39 maybe?

After inspecting her and making sure the house was ok, I headed to the free chamber on the other end of the house. 'This should be her daughter's room'. I thought while examining it. There was a bed, a little wardrobe, a table, and a chair. On the table were tools to make arrows and other hunting equipment. When I got bored of looking around I went straight to the bed and laid down. 'Ugh, what a shitty bed, it's too hard...' I complained inwardly while trying to find a good posture to sleep. Another 15 minutes later and I was already in dreamland.

I woke up the moment the first ray of sun appeared over the horizon. 'Mmmwhaa, I feel very refreshed even though I slept in such a lousy bed. Is this the power of a high VIT rank? Whatever, I'll just think about that later, now I wanna eat something.' So I promptly got up and walked directly at the storage room. 'Such low-quality food... doesn't seem very appetizing. I'll just use Life magic to grow an apple or something I guess.' And so I did, with tears in my eyes. Why? Well, it may be because I was charged TWO FUCKING DAYS OF MY LIFESPAN FOR THAT APPLE! BULLSHIT I SAY! It took me half an hour to calm down and while I was doing that I noticed that Ms. Wynwenys was preparing her home to sell the butchered animals.

Just when I was thinking of going for a walk I noticed someone entering the house. I turned around and was surprised to see a pretty elf with a stunningly hot body with a few rabbit corpses over her shoulder. She had blonde hair and green eyes and her face was like some kind of next door girl. Her body tho, had a slim waist and was toned by years of hunting. I wouldn't be surprised if she had a sixpack under her shirt. Her breast were somewhat small but it went well with her slim muscular body. She had a plump big butt and an amazing pair of legs that were hard to hide even behind her leather pants. She reached a height of 175 cm and stood proud while being covered in dirt and smelling horribly. But... even when she looked dirty because of going around the forest, hunting, it somehow made her more enticing and sexy.

I immediately said; "Appraisal." to learn more and my favorite box appeared in front of me.

'Is she feeling happy about arriving home? Maybe she got a good hunt these past days or something. At the same time, level 36 huh. She seems to be the strongest woman in the village, very amazing.' I pondered trying to think about what was portrayed in her status. She headed straight into the storage room and called for her mother to help her with the things she brought back from the forest. Later, as she finished that, she went for water and bathed herself with a cloth and a bucket. 'Holy shit, she actually has a six-pack.' I thought while spying.

After she finished cleaning herself and got a few hours of well-deserved sleep, came the conversation I had been waiting for.

"Isil, come here, please. There is something that I want to talk about you." A mature voice could be heard speaking loudly.

"What happened, mother?" A young one answered after hastily coming over.

"I decided to engage you to the son of Nimue Hernorin. Kharis. He seems to like you and their family is the richest of the whole village."

"WHAT!? Mom why would you do that, there is no way I'm marrying that ugly bastard. He's ugly, looks really weak and ill, doesn't know how to do any chores and I heard that he has a small cock. What is there to like about him other than his money, besides we don't need it! We are already quite wealthy." She screamed.

"Daughter, listen. Even though we may be richer than the average farmer we are not that well-off. This could be the chance you have been looking for you to live in the town and start to make a name for yourself as a warrior. How many years will you need to save coins to pay for the knight academy if you continue to be a hunter? If you marry her son that would be a ticket to citizenship in the town after all. There you could continue as a mercenary or even earn more money through trade. Now, I want you to calm yourself think about it, and accept their proposal tomorrow, okay? Additionally, you will get sex whenever you want, even if he's ugly he still has a stick!" She answered with a louder shout.

"Mom, please I really don't wanna do this. Once I choose him as my husband, I will have to stay with him for too long. I won't even be able to sleep with other men, he is the one who has the money and the church would help him if I cheated."  The girl pleadingly said.

"Isil, I said go calm yourself. Then accept the proposal. This is a heaven-sent chance into riches. I'll be able to retire as well. There is no way I'm letting this opportunity go. Go for a walk around the forest to soothe your nerves. I'll prepare meat for tonight's celebration. Come on, what are waiting for? Go now!" Her mother ordered.

"Argh, fuck you mom..." She whispered while exiting her home.

'Now that's interesting... Hehe, I have a brilliant idea.' I thought, after starting to make a plan about how I would go to get the information about the location of the Capital out of her. 'Mmm, first I'll need to quickly explore the surrounding forest. Then, I'll need to teleport my cute little minion over here and lastly, I'll need to make a few things with my creation ability in addition to using Life magic to rearrange a spot. Hehehe, I'll give you something that you'll never be able to forget.' I contemplated.

POV Change; Isilynor Wynwenys.

'Fucking bastard, why would you have to propose to me? Shouldn't it be the woman proposing and trying to get approved by the man's family? Sigh, and my Mom too, why would this happen to me...' I sulked inwardly while journeying the forest.

'Do I truly have no other choice? What am I going to do now...' I continued to rant when suddenly I was interrupted by a large buzzing sound. 'Fuck, is it an insect-monster type?' I sprinted like crazy trying to hide behind some thicker trees. Then I held my breath to not give away my position. 'Normally insect type monsters travel in big swarms of their species, this might be some kind of scout.' I continued to analyze.

After what felt like an eternity but actually was 3 minutes, more buzzing sound started to appear. 'Shit, shit, shit, I can hear at least a hundred of them. Oh fuck, please go away.' I started to scream in my mind. Another 3 minutes passed and more buzzings came. I thought it was going to be my end when abruptly all the noise went away. I waited a few seconds before I couldn't contain my curiosity. I slowly peeked from behind the tree and when I finally saw what was going around, my jaw almost dropped to the ground. Hundreds of lulmoths lined one next to each other in some kind of formation. My eyes went wide and my heart rate rose. When I was about to hide again, I heard it. A heavy, low buzz approaching. My body tensed, my eyes were wetting themselves and tears started to form.

Then, it showed up. A gigantic purple looking moth. When my heart was about to stop and my knees start to tremble, I sensed it. We made eye contact with each other. I felt the biggest sense of despair I've ever gotten in my life. As if I didn't immediately flee, doom would befall me and I would wish I could die to end my suffering. I gulped before screamed while running with all my might. The gigantic moth made some sound and his children started to pursue me in the forest. I ran and continued to sprint every time I could. It didn't matter how much pain my legs were feeling, it didn't matter that I didn't know where I was going, the only thing in my mind was to escape. Just when it looked like I would meet my end and get caught, I fell down the side of a little cliff because my foot got trapped in some kind of protruding root. I rolled down the cliff while protecting my head with my arms and got bruised all over my body.

When I finally stopped rolling, I tried to get up and looked over to see if the insects were still behind me. I was instantly relieved to notice that they seem to have lost me and I couldn't help but weep and sigh for a few minutes. After forcefully calming myself down because I knew that I was still inside the forest, and what dangers that represented, I began to slowly hobble my way around the trees. After walking for a while, I couldn't stop but feel relieved when I heard the water from the stream flowing. I almost teared up a little, after all, I knew that if I follow the river downstream I would get to the village again.

I limped my way forward moving towards the stream. When suddenly I saw a little clearing. There were beautiful flowers everywhere and the rays of the sun shone brightly all over the place. But what truly caught my attention was possibly the most handsome man, laying naked over some kind of white and weird-looking mattress. He looked like a God himself had descended and was sleeping in the middle of the forest just to purify it with his incredible aura. I couldn't help but get closer, just to get a better view of his incredibly muscular body and take a peek at his stick down there. 

When I arrived just in front of him, I couldn't help but suck in cold air and gasp in amazement. 'His thing is enormous!' I couldn't stop myself from exclaiming in my mind. I decidedly got onto my knees and took a big whiff of his scent. It was like smelling the sweetest and most intoxicating fragrance ever. I continued to sniff him all over. His strong neck, his sexy abs, his wide back, and finally an extra big one right over his cock. But when I did that, I couldn't contain me anymore. I slowly started touching him and caressing his body very softly just to not wake him. I touched his face and lips, then his soft and lustrous black hair. After that, I caressed his pectoral muscles and slowly continued downwards till mildly grabbing his cock in my hand. I couldn't hold back anymore and started stroking it with one hand while the other went right into my pants.

But then, just when I was about to take it into my mouth, I froze. I saw him move and heard him grumble. Immediately I stopped fingering myself and let his cock go out of my hand. Hastily I stood straight and pulled my pants up to cover the mess I was making. After a few seconds, I saw him slowly open his blue ocean-like eyes. I momentarily lost myself in his gaze but then I recovered when I heard the huskiest, silvery, and deepest voice that has probably ever existed.

"Who are you?" He asked me looking right into my eyes.

POV Change; MC.

Everything was going exactly as I planned. The lonely girl would get ambushed by insects. She will escape and be guided by them in a certain direction. I would trip her over a small cliff and she would miraculously avoid certain death. She would start to limp around the place until she hears the river. Then, as she was following that direction she would arrive at the clearing I designed for the best visual effects. Finally, she will try to warn me about the insect threat or at least question what I'm doing here. So... WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU INTENSELY SMELLING MY COCK LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!!!

'Sigh, is it really that difficult to follow the plan?' I thought. And after calming myself down I noticed the messages that had started to appear in my head.

'Ding, +50 points for: looks'

'Ding, +3 points for: smell'

I was very surprised when I saw that, and at the same time, I noticed that as she kept exploring my body, messages continued to appear.

'Ding,+1 point for: lips'

'Ding,+1 point for: hair'

'Ding, +2 points for: body'

'Ding,+1 point for: body'

'Ding, +1 point for: body'

I was lost in hearing the messages and her gentle yet caring touch when suddenly I froze.

'Ding, +2 points for: penis'

'Ding, +2 points for: penis'

She started to stroke my shaft very sensually. It was a slow yet firm movement from the base of my cock all they up to its head. I was feeling heavenly good until I began to hear wet noises behind me. With my level of perception, I was able to know exactly what she was doing.
