Chap 5 Tasting Lady Captain

... 

Silver haired, Dark skinned With a proud and sharp horn on her forehead

Ruas The temporary captain and the owner of this ship came down from her cabin after listening to those two boys pleads to kill that Unknown Human

As much as she also wanted to kill him and be done with it she can't 

Not after Selia pleaded her to preserve him for her to study and listening to her great speech of finding the weakness of humans

Their sworn enemies and how much it's a coincidence for them to encounter a living specimen of a human here on the first day Selia came out of the tribe with her

Selia is like a daughter to her, She has raised her alone after her parents died years ago 

She can't refuse her like this and what's more, she finds That human to be weak. Compared to those humans she has encountered in the mainland at the time of her travel to different tribes

Almost evey human captured by the beastkins, would commit suicide with the ways they can't stop

They're consider as the best and expensive slaves perfect to show the status in any tribes, Just like How a beastkin is the perfect slave in the human kingdoms

'After Selia gets bored of him I can even sell him in the neighboring tribe' 

She has already formed a plan on how to keep his presence a secret in the tribe as she doesn't want the Tribe Master to find she's hiding a human under her

Buying her temporary crew members silence was easy

They're already poor if she offers even a little bit more than their pay they will even sell their bodies, The life in the tribe where strength equals to money and power isn't easy to the weak

Selling a human can boost the tribe immensely but she knows how greedy the Tribe Master is 

Shaking her head. Removing the face of that old bastard, She despised even after years has passed

Ruas remains her walk

Her stocking streched far wide on her thick thighs as she walks towards that human, Her short skirt that gives her comfort in walking Flutters by the winds

Her slow and dignified walk turned into an abrupt hault after hearing a sharp glass shattering noise

"Shkrunk! 

With wide eyes she ran at that direction 'I was sure

'I have beaten him enough that would take days for him to gain consciousness so how did he?!' 

Ruas doesn't want her Gold bag to commit suicide 

"What the! 

The door was already unlocked! 

'How?!' 

Circulating her spirit energy. Her horn started glowing, She prepared herself

"Bam!

The door opens with a blast, Her eyes widen forgetting what she was supposed to do

There she saw that human covered in loose bandages holding Selia her daughter in his hands, pointing the sharp broken shard of a glass at her delicate exposed neck just below her Fins like ears while smiling ever so slightly seeing her

Ruas couldn't comprehend how, why or when he was able to take Selia as hostage but right now it doesn't matter she could think about these stupid questions later but first she has to save her and this time... Kill him

To her Selia is the family she doesn't want to lose at all cost

She was prepared to do anything for her to protect 

'How dare he touch her like that!' 

Gone her previous thought of selling him alive, A dead specimen can also fetch some dimes 

"Shsk dbhsms" 

The human said something she couldn't comprehend but she knows what he's trying to say from his gesture

"Back off!" 

Devon barked, Not feeling even a little bit bad for using the kind girl who lays limp in his hands

"Crack! 

Scratching the still holding wooden door with her sharp nail Ruas kept staring at him with red eyes before she takes a step back

Slowly Devon keep backing her away and after making sure he was at the place he woke up

The open area surrounded by ocean where he can run away by jumping easily, Devon felt a little relieved

Passing the stone at him from a distance, Ruas said Threatingly 

"You bastard! Leave her! I will not kill you, you can go wherever hole you came from"

"Did I asked you to speak?" 

Purple blood dripped down Selias pale neck from the point of connect, The shard was too sharp against her skin

Seeing her in silence a smile bloomed on his handsome face

"Tell your crew members to back off!" 

Devon said seeing the two remaining boys trying to surround him, They backed off after seeing Ruas glare

"What do you want" 

He can't run away from this place other than diving into the waters and hoping he will eventually reach the coast which he knew is filled with the Chimeras the hostile race against humans

They will kill him on sight If what Selia told is true

Devon thinks for a moment before he replied with a smile

"Shall we talk? "

... 

*Devon

"I want you to get me out of here, send me to the human kingdom" 

From what Selia told me. It seems, I will be in great danger, Surrounded by everyone who wanted nothing but to kill me

I will be living a fugitives life and I don't want to start my new life like a criminal even if I'm

A criminal is a criminal only if his or her crimes came out in light 

"That's impossible" She replied instantly

We're in the Cabin at the top, 

The women or the captain is sitting on her comfortable chair while I sit on a rough wooden chair with a table at the center

I'm wearing a simple rob from Ruas cabin to cover my naked body, She can't let a naked man near her daughter

Adjusting Selias lith and soft body on my lap to make myself comfortable on the wodden chair I circled my hand around her narrow waist

My head was resting on her smooth shoulder just near her fins breathing her scent I thought 

'what shampoo did she used' 

It's a unique type and makes me feel fresh while her neck shrinks a little, Feeling my breath on her fins which I find funny

Maybe after living alone for so long I have started a longing for some warmth of others

That's why I can't stop myself from feeling her warm body

Tightening my hold on her unconsciously, Like a pillow I can fell asleep holding her if that horned lady isn't here 

"Why?" 

I asked, Obviously she was angry seeing me so comfortable with her daughter which is visible on her tone, nonetheless she told me her simple reason

She doesn't have the money nor means to travel this far long. The last time she has reached near the human kingdom was, The last war 

Here traveling needs a large amount of money and great strength for safety

It isn't like my world where one can travel the world with little money and such ease

After I ask her, If we can travel by sea or is there's some sea route from here she told me the sea is more dangerous than lands 

Here I wanted to live and not just survive and to do that I need power which makes me focus on these two supernatural forces Selia told me 

"Leave it, tell me what you know about Mana we humans use and what's so different the mana is from the spirit energy of you beastkins" 

I have to told Ruas that I can't control the mana and I don't even know how I came here

The fun fact is the cliche excuse "I have forgotten my memory" Works most of the time, More or less

At the very least you will be able to dodge most of the questions you can't explain

She stares at me for some time considering whether to tell me about this or not even though it's the basic information both the races knew about and not some state guarded secrets but the fact I have forgotten everything and knew nothing about the outside world gives her the advantage she can tell me a lie and done with it, I won't be able to question it 

'I will have to double check by others' 

I thought before listening to her

Mana is like any other fictional world is the same here that's what I feel after listening to Ruas explanation and my comment is 

'Too cliche' but the spirit is something different

It's exclusively related to beastkins and their bloodlines 

The spirit energy can be found on other magical beasts

They defeat it and absorb their spirit to increase theirs

It doesn't stops at magical beast though they can gain spirit energy by defeating and absorbing other weaker beastkins spirit energy

Which makes them, go on cannibalism route for easier leveling

... 

'They're disgusting' 

Luckily Ruas agrees with me or I might set on killing her and her daughter in my arms right here and now which surprised me

I thought, Just a thought of killing someone will make me feel excited but here it doesn't

"One last question" I said straightening my back 

"Will you leave me and daughter after that?"

Her stern gaze was threatening like a warrior she's

"No" I said with a smile, How can I leave my only lifeline

I have already created a plan to live with them at the Zargot Tribe until I'm self sufficient enough

My thought process are becoming more and more like a criminal which would have been a concern in my world but here is... A Necessity

From the way Selia spoke of her, Ruas is an elder of her tribe and a respected one at that

Her words alone will be enough to not get suspicious of an unknown man entering their tribe or island

She's strong and reliable but also a dangerous one against me 

I don't have a gun nor i got some world defying poison with only one antidote to threaten her

If she gets even a single chance, Ruas can and will kill me instantly 

Which anybody can tell just by seeing her tense posture as she's barely taking support on her chair, Her glaring eyes giving signals to my instinct that she's ready to pounce on me and tear my throat away

She's only stopping herself cause I can use Selia as a meat shield easily against her 

I got only one thing that I can use it against her and make her do my bidding in Zargot tribe and even that is just a guess which I have yet to prove 

It's a dangerous gamble I will be taking

More dangerous than letting myself taken as a livestock to those cannibals just to infiltrate their one of many groups

If it succeeded she will be my greatest weapon or at least until I became a weapon... Myself

"That's not a question though just a request. I want to tell you something in private" 

I can't leave my meat shield or say my insurance here, so I signal her to give her ear to me as I'm afraid Selia will listen to what I'm about to talk

She gives me a skeptical look but like they say 

'Curiosity is the best and universal bait, One can use'

With a stiff nod Ruas came near me though her caution was apparant 

Lowering her upper body a little to get at my level She clenched her hands before releasing it

Her body movement looks suspicious which i can see why, She present her ear side to me

Holding Selia tightly. I stretches my neck at her side to speak 

"I..." 

But like I predicted, In one fluid motion Ruas left hand grabbed Selias shoulder

Pulling her away from my feeble grasp. Before I noticed it her right fist was on it's way to blew my head away 

'Shes too strong' 

I thought but 'The more stronger she's. the more this gamble will pay' 

My heart beats in anticipation

I saw her turning at my side with a grin 

Taking this chance I pushed myself on her

Latching on her lips taking her by surprise 

Feeling the connection I sucked like my life depends on her lips

In my hurry, I couldn't even concentrate on how her lips feels different than Selia other than her lower lip is more softer than upper one

Brushing her stiff but slippery tongue, I feels that same unknown energy

If Sleia gives a feeling of drinking water from a glass than Ruas gives a feeling of drinking water from a jug, From that connection the stream of energy flows through me leaving her body entering in me

I don't know if what I'm taking from her is mana or spirit energy they talk about or if they will lose this energy forever after I take it, All I know is that this energy heals me and strengthens me like a drug

It feels intoxicating, addicting I would say I didn't feels the time flow and before I notice, Her body started leaning on me. Swaying her hands without energy only then I break the kiss or the connection

Supporting her body I feels satisfied and can feels more strength than before 

She doesn't faint like Selia. Her eyes are still open wide in horror

Watching me smile at her while she couldn't do anything other than let her body lean against me, Letting me take a feel of her bountiful chest

Her chest is less softer than Selia but the size makes it up for that 

'She might develop a trauma of me after this' 

I thought Before placing her back on my seat and taking Selia who starting showing signs of waking up in my arms and seating on the big comfortable chair where Ruas was sitting before

I still feels Selia will be a great sleeping pillow 

'She makes me feels comfortable' I thought holding her on my lap feeling her plump ass

'From the looks of it Ruas also doesn't know what I did to her and Selia' 

I nodded in thought feeling more confidence for what I'm about to demand

There are two things which makes people hesitate before going against someone. One, knowing how powerful background and influential that person is 

Two, how mysterious and unknown background one has. Which makes them goes in, wait and react mode. Giving the necessary time to the other person And the Time is all I need to grow here

Legs on table, I looks down at Helpless one horned, silver haired proud lady opposite of me who couldn't even move her body. She has to watch her enemy holding her daughter in his arms in her paralyzed body 

'Now I know why every guy wants to tame a stronger women than them' 

It gives a different pleasure or what do they say 

'It hits different than predating on weaker ones?'

"Hahaha... 

I couldn't stop myself from laughing on that thought which accidentally wakes up Selia

"Hmm! 

"Ahem! Ahem!
