There were a few other curious things about my Status such as the EX entries for my Vitality and Wisdom, and the fact that Pain Nullification seemed to be inhibiting Masochism, but before I could properly use Vision of Seshat to get a good look, I heard the sound of a door creak and the muffled voices of two people talking. I could tell they were coming closer as their voices grew louder and more clear. Since I wasn't really into introducing myself naked, I weaved what was essentially a poncho from silk.
The one currently talking had a deep and rough voice that sounded full of pity."-ing you, the corpse looks like a charred zombie, what kind of monster can turn such a young girl into such a mess? I bet the Yin-Yang Clan-"
The voice suddenly cut off as two figures rounded the corners and saw me sitting up on the table I had been lying on, covered in my new poncho. I sheepishly raised a no longer carapaced arm and waved awkwardly. "Hey, may I know where I am?"
I spoke politely as I didn't want them to think I'd actually become a zombie and try to kill me or take some other drastic measure. The two men stood in shock for a few moments while they stared at me with disbelief. After what seemed like an eternity the one on the left who had been talking before managed to stammer out some words. "Ho-how, I, you, dead. How are you alive?"
I shrugged, while it seemed like the fault of my Skills I wasn't really sure. "I've inherited the healing factor of a Phoenix, what's one death? Though I can't say I'm keen to do it again." As I spoke I gently pushed myself off the table, careful not to let my poncho sway too much. "Anyway, I'd like to see my family, and if possible talk to Arya from the Yin-Yang clan."
The two were still recovering from their shock but they nodded and asked me to wait before they turned and left the way they came. They were probably going to check with their supervisor, I mean, since when does a dead person suddenly rise from the dead without external aid in this world.
I didn't mind waiting and spent the time weaving my silk into a proper set of clothes. Well I say proper, but it was essentially a sports bra and a bottom that could only be called low waist bloomers. Just low enough that I had decent access to my spinneret and it didn't interfere with my carapaced legs since I didn't want to walk around barefoot.
I wondered why I hadn't thought of using my carapace to weave before, it should have been an obvious correlation yet I somehow failed to notice until recently. Still, while I could make do I much preferred the use of actual tools since it made better clothes and it was much easier to do measurements and such.
By the time I fully weaved and got dressed I could hear a large amount of footsteps coming. It didn't take much longer for me to see several people. I of course recognized most of them seeing as they were my family, however there were two people that I didn't recognize. The first was elderly man with long gray hair and a matching beard of similar length. The other was a Elven man with long ears and well kept blonde short blonde hair, his expression was like he was looking at the greatest sight he'd ever seen, yet he stayed at the back as my family rushed up to me.
The first to reach me was Marian who gripped me tightly in her embrace, making it difficult to breath with my face squashed into her chest. Her words were incoherent and I felt tears streaming from her face onto the top of my head. Once Marian had calmed a bit the others of my family came closer and looked at me with a mixture of emotions on their faces. Gabriel looked calm as always, like she had known I would come back to life. Kalista had a complicated look that was somewhere between frustration and relief, but otherwise seemed happy that I was alive.
Probably the most uncharacteristic was Alcrem. He'd always struck me as cold and calculating yet he looked genuinely relieved that I was alive and standing before him. He even gave me a short hug for the first time in my life, something that caused me to blank for a short moment.
After a little longer of fussing and making sure I was okay the two strangers approached and got on their knees as they bowed as low as they could. I was somewhat flustered as I didn't understand what was going on until the older man spoke. "I'm deeply sorry for the incident that happened between you and Arya. As the Headmaster I should have been aware of the issue, but even now I am kept in the dark." There was a subtle glance towards the Elven man at his words which I assumed meant that he was at least part of the Yin-Yang Clan.
I couldn't understand why the Headmaster himself had come to apologize as I felt it didn't have much to do with the school, rather it was due to my abnormal schedule the problem had arisen. What I couldn't understand was why no one knew exactly what had transpired but erring on the side of caution I simply accepted the headmaster's apology before looking towards the Elf.
The 2 sisters didn’t even visit the MC while he was dead and the father just wants to use him for his own gain. The only family member that genuinely cares for him is the mother. The sisters and the father don’t seem to care for him so why doesn’t he just ignore them?
Arya ended up killing the MC, although she didn’t mean to put the curse on him he still died by her hands, so I hope he ends up getting some sort of revenge.
To me it seemed more like a mercy kill. The curse would’ve killed her either way and quite painfully at that. She also took procotions to avoid it happening like placing a barrier and taking a bath after everyone went to bed. The mc was just plain unlucky. Not Arya’s fault. Not that I’m excusing Arya’s other behavioral issues I just think getting revenge for an accident is quite petty.
First of all, the MC can't tell who attend her funeral, seeing all of them there when she woke up would be enough, especially when her father rushed to hug her.
As for the revenge part, I agree with AliceHiess, taking revenge because of a mistake is just plain stupid, it's a curse, Arya has no control over it, to take revenge because of it is again, just plain stupid, even if it's for either the plot or drama.
Why would she take revenge on her future harem girl? Once this missunderstanding is over, they will be friendlier towards eachother, living on the same room for 6 months together at a time, from there is a matter of time, she can also traing her Yin Flames with her Perfect Yang Fire, plus she is the first futa introduced, why introduced her like that just for Vell to kill her off in petty revenge?
It is ovious that she will at least be a s*x friend, he is now on a female body with a male original personality, let just say that the line is blurred with a futa in his case, he was surprised when he saw her dong not disgusted remember that... to many benefits in my opinion.
Not saying they should be instantly having sex, don get me wrong, they first have to patch things up and get to know eachother.
@Ruiso They never said to kill her, I assume they want him to ‘s*x her’ in revenge. “Some sort of revenge” which the mc hints at anyways.
@Mikealike the line between revenge s*x and rape is really blurred.... I rather she killed her rather than rape her as a sort of revenge.
@Ruiso I suggest we stop this discussion, it's getting a bit dicey, whether it's an actual rape or not, we don't really know enough about the setting of the world, how people see s*x and stuff, and applying our value to a fantasy novel world that is completely different from ours might not be the best decision.
All I'm saying is to keep an open mind, considering there's futa and stuff, it's not that far fetched to have raped.
I won't say that rape doesn't happen in this world, or that Vell won't be involved. However, I plan to keep it consensual as much as possible.
Human society has similar values to the renaissance era regarding sex. Women and men cover themselves and it's all much hush hush.
Elves however are very open, s*x is just a natural function so it's not uncommon to see them naked or even in the middle of the throes of passion, though they do tend to adopt whatever values the society they are in has as a sign of respect.
I just don't want her to start a relationship with Arya on revenge s*x or rape if Arya is opposed to it, it will probably just end on a coupple of nights together and be done with eachother or with one of them mind broken, I want to see them develope together and stuff, considering that the only way to break the curse is to be chosen by Arya or to kill her, if she were to see the dong again she will probably be cursed again and she would have to focus on eating the yang flames rather than enjoying her dong, so she need to be her chosen, I don't think raping her in revenge will not lead to that, probably.
I am also not aplying my values on the novel, saying that rape doesn't hapen is pountless and unrealistic, here they are probably old enough after they reach 12 years of age, her 'mom' told her to wait until she hits puverty to start the lewds so it can be assumed that she won't wait until marrige before losing her virginity or wqiting till she is 18 or whatever...
Pretty much. Arya and Vell's relationship should build up during the remaining time at school, but things might go differently, especially if some people decide to interfere.
@Tyboneous my guess are both of their fathers, like one having more from the other as payment from killing his 'daugther' and the other that wants his dauther to be more pure and possibly chose another yin-yang elf clansman as her partner. Maybe her real dad will be involved too since they killed his daughter, maybe the mark would re appear and he would want to take her back to prevent her from dying again, if so I wonder how the rest revolves around Vell and Arya.
@Ruiso If someone killed you even accidentally, no matter how pretty they were you would have trouble loving or "sexing" them. Murder and pain kill even the strongest lust very quickly
@helzblack yet if I were to be into pain and getting hurt like a certain masochist that has a skill that enhances that, I don't know if using normal people logic to discuss that is even possible. If someone were to kill me ofcourse it would kill my lust and stuff, I'd be dead. The only problem, at first atleast as she seems to care for Arya, with their relation is that Vell wasn't into guys on her last life when he was a guy himself and his personality carried over to her new body, Arya is a futa with a big PP between her legs and she knows that if she tried something it will end up getting f*cked by her nice futa cock, which would make her old personality scream 'Gay!' don't know if it actually is as neither of them are the same gender.
