As Time Flows By

 

 

 

Her thick thighs being slowly covered by the beige-colored bathtub followed right after by her childbearing hips, she descended into paradise with her body feeling those sensations she so much craves.

"Mpaah~... hmn, kugh~..."

With the back of her head against the bathtub's edge, her bountiful impossible-to-exist natural breasts bounced a little before each eraser turned to 'look' at each side, their angle not that far apart from each other, it was just a small amount of distance between each other.

Time passed by, yet she still continued to moan from the situation her body encountered itself within inside the bathtub, it was so relaxing, fulfilling and warm. She very much loved this feeling, specially alone.

Tomp!-Creak~.

But then, as if desiring to submerge her in irked terror, the sound to the bathroom was opened with a blast before the sound of it being dragged open completely was heard.

Splash-splash, splash!

Rapidly opening her azure eyes as she extended her right arm to grab a bottle to the side of the bathtub; as she pressed on the bottle to let much of its contents out on the water, she continuously made tremors with her hands in the water.

Step, step...

Not long after, the steps that were rapidly coming from before sounded out closer and closer, similarly, they became slower and slower as they came closer to the young woman in the bathtub.

Huuu-ah-huuu...

Ragged dog, pig-like breathing sounded out as the person outside the bathtub was already only a few meters away from the bathtub.

"Hoo, Sister, how are you? Hm... let me see your naked body, please?!" As a young man's voice came to the disgusted ears of the young woman, the face of a young man with wavy-annoying-looking orange colored hair came into the young woman's sight.

"Rilu, leave. Leave! No! Leave, right now. Leave!" After looking at her 'dear' brother, the young woman started giving orders and, among them, some were with panic and hate at the same time.

"No, come on. Let me see... Here, I'll get in the bathtub together with you, move aside!" Unclothing himself rapidly, first taking out his jacket horrendously fast and impatiently while wiggling his hip as if that would make his pants go down, Rilu looked like a enlarged pig in the young woman's eyes as she then took a gun out from the inside of the bathtub and aimed with it with her left hand.

Rilu shocked to a standstill, his brightening up worm suddenly decayed and became a miserable wrinkled little shit. Her azure eyes did not even seemed to look at his face as she was looking right at him.

No doubt, she would shoot. First at him, then at herself. Not for guilt, but for exhaustion, because of her eyes that were telling of how much she desired not her current life.

Rustle, rustle.

With his belt going back to where it belonged and his wet clothes from the steam being picked back up again, Rilu covered his almost half-naked weak and ugly body before starting to leave away from the bathtub and his sister.

"Fine, you'll see. Once our Elders get tired fo you not wanting to be married off, you'll see whether or not they even- hold you down for me to punish!" Hearing his words, and his steps, as the dragged away; the young woman let go of the gun in her left hand as it fell onto the water.

Pu-tong.

"Ha-ee-ah~!" A terrorized pre-sobbing, heartpiercing yell came out from her mouth and nose as she then picked up her wet hair on front of her head before starting to sob in silence. Her hands holding her head, holding herself from letting it fall in the water to never resurface again.

She once again managed to protect the little that she had left, but she would have to end herself if she wanted not to be defiled next time. Girls like her from the Founding Clan are to be wed off from 10 to 16 years old to anyone else that had a stable power in the world. Her being so successful at keeping herself sane and safe was a first, not that she knew of other cases anyways. Even then, though not all of the Founding Clans have such 'tradition', they at least all did, once upon a time.

Sob, sob...

The next day, inside the game world of Rising Essence.

 

As Tongqiu was watching a little silly wolf cub hop up and down continuously with Tornyllia, he opened his list of contacts in-game. Searching for a 'beautiful' name in specific, 'Yunalesca'.

Opening the message box with Yunalesca, Tongqiu looked a it for a little before sending a few messages:

Yunalesca: "Beishang, our time to be spent together may be delayed. I'm still getting things ready with my family and so on, say... is there any chance that a vacant building is available close to where you live?"

Yunalesca: "I've managed to convince my parents!"

Yunalesca: "The delay time may really be bigger than I thought, I (or we) are looking for a long term stay at the Nascent Herb City, could you help us with that? Right now, we're on a little town of the Free Living Region. Well, you know... it wasn't that easy to live at the Southern Heaven City, or the entire Cloud Gates Region at that, after what happened..."

Tongqiu: "Okay, with my help you may very well be able to get it done in a month or two at most."

Yunalesca: "Seriously? Yes!! My family and I alone would've take at least a couple of years on our own, thank you so much Beishang! Love you!!"

Tongqiu: "Q_Q!"

Tongqiu: "So, about the time until you are free; not just for moving out with me but also to play together, how long?"

Yunalesca: "Beishang! I'm so happy to chat with you!"

Yunalesca: "Mhm, in 4 or 5 months I think I'll be able to move and be free to play the quest. Why, why ^_^?"

Tongqiu: "No, it's okay. I'm, as you may probably already know, moving around Regions so I wanted to check if I needed to hurry up already."

Yunalesca: "Nononono, no need! I'll tell you myself with a few weeks in anticipation."

Yunalesca: "Beishang, are you with a girl?"

Breathing in sharply and sneakily while giving the playful Zyv a quick look, Tongqiu was about to respond 'yes' when his head acted even harder.

Tongqiu: "Well, with more than one."

Yunalesca: "(•ω•)"

Yunalesca: "H-how exactly?"

Seeing her 'stutter' in the chat, Tongqiu almost chuckled out of silliness before replying.

Tongqiu: "They are NPCs actually, and... only one of them is not my wife..."

Yunalesca: "╚(ಠ_ಠ)=┐"

Yunalesca: "You couldn't hold yourself? Pff."

Tongqiu: "To be honest, I wasn't thinking. They were just there when I still wasn't 'right'. And they're still here."

Yunalesca: "Oh... okay, I understand. It's... slightly uncomfortable to think of it. But, Beishang, do you still have me..."

Seeing her ellipsis written on purpose and well-intended, Tongqiu responded right away without breaking a sweat.

Tongqiu: "Yes, you're always there."

Yunalesca: "｡◕‿‿◕｡"

Yunalesca: "You too, you've always been in there. Talk to you other time, handsome Bei, miss me! ♡."

Upon seeing her response, Tongqiu's face turned warm and serene. Gazing upon her last two messages for a good long of a while, he finally closed the message box after noticing a sweating Tornyllia and an overexcited Zyv still trying to hunt the 'little' Tornyllia down.

"Hey, you! Evil Zyv, stop bullying Tornyllia, can't you see..." Walking up with his balls on display -figuratively-, Tongqiu manned up to confront the evil of the world to save the damsel in distress, his words echoing in the deepest parts of the damsel's heart.

Meanwhile, on another part of Main Kingdom, after killing a Heavenly field BOSS with a huge spear of light having descended from the sky as if coming out from a pair of invisible eyelids with a spearhead the size of three 2 storey simple buildings in the shape of spearhead -duh- and its shaft the size of almost two hundred meters; Miriam aka 'Yunalesca', breathed in and out over and over with her modest yet well-formed breasts heavily as they were heaving up and down.

As she was continuously replying to Tongqiu with all of her attention on his messages, this seemingly ordinary young woman of the same age as Tongqiu, defeated a Heavenly field BOSS after half an hour of painful spamming of her skills before finally finishing it with one of her ultimate moves which she so painstakingly acquired the skill from her 'mentor'.

Obviously, a field type Heavenly BOSS was nothing for this young woman, and the fact that she took more time was because of her total attention being driven by her beloved and most hurtful person in the entire world.

"Phew~!" Wiping the bullets of sweat out of her forehead, Yunalesca straightened her back as if sensing something. A few seconds after she did, while holding her exhausted self from making it obvious she was slightly spent, an image of a beautiful young girl appeared before her in the manner of a mirage. An aqueous type of screen with the volume of a cicada's wings appeared before and above Yunalesca.

The young girl's image was blurred by lots, the only discernible characteristics that Yunalesca could elaborate where that she had a blonde hair color that had some strands looking almost transparent; and that her hair was of a medium-short length, her hairstyle also gave her a rough kind of feeling.

Her entire face was the most 'blurred' of her body, even then, only her head and a little bit of her shoulders were visible. There were mosaics of water and of a clear square-turtle's shell shape, it might as well be 'something' covering her face and not just it being blurred out.

Once Yunalesca saw the familiar image of her 'mentor', she bowed her head slightly in respect and understanding. Then, the dignified voice of a female being that has gone through endless eras sounded out, her tone was ultimately pure and serene while her every spoke syllable was heard as if countless wisps of wisdom came out from her own existence.

"Dear Yunalesca, have you completed your weekly quota? Have you consumed enough essence?" Hearing her finish her words, Yunalesca softened her voice naturally before speaking: "Yes, master. I've also recruited a helper for the incredibly important mission you've talked about."

"No, don't call me 'master', dear Yunalesca. I'm not fit to be so, I've told you..."

This time, without caring for showing respect, Yunalesca replied to her 'mentor's' contradicting words with despondent feelings: "But mas-mentor, you've been caring for me since I showed up in this ah-'world'. You... you've helped me so much, I think calling you so respectfully like that, can I barely amount to paying you back for your help."

At the end of her words, Miriam's throat went hoarse for an instant before her voice grew faint and sobbing.

Becoming discernibly touched, the young girl in the mirage-like screen responded with one of her slim hands 'extending' out from the screen to touch her left side of Yunalesca's face.

"Dear, dear Yunalesca. I'm but someone who failed to survive the past, I don't even know how to  teach you and can only guide you. Your entire being is abundant in talent, potential and heart. You need no master, as I said; you need to only calm your heart and guide your steps with it, thinking too much may exhaust yourself to death." Her soft traveled to a pair of no longer despairing ears. Yunalesca grinned cheekily at the realization that, even after no longer having 'stupid thoughts', her mentor has not stopped even once in calling her and speaking to her ever so gently and affectionately.

"Sniff, okay. Ehehe! Sniff, okay!" Cleaning her nose with her right forearm, Yunalesca giggled out softly before once again speaking in obedience towards the oh so cherished young girl in the mirage. She then collected herself a little more and spoke out: "Oh! Sniff, my... 'recruit'. Is a... mmm, my, ahm..."

"Hmhm, is he your lover?"

Opening her eyes wide by hearing the young girl's words, Yunalesca blushed intensely before sorrow took in but, after thinking for a little she responded softly, almost sobbingly: "Yes."

This time, there was a difference to the mirage-like image of the young girl, her lips were now partially visible. It was like changing the resolution of a video to 50p from 1p, that bad, but also that obvious.

As Yunalesca saw the young girl's cheerful and gentle smile, like smiling as a young kid yet as an omnipotent being that has gone through the ages, and as a grandma who was teaching her grandchildren of the world and the hearts of men; she grew valiant and the next few words coming from the young girl made her feel even more emboldened: "Why don't you tell me about it?"

"Mn! He is called Yun Beishang, I met him in a horrendous, horrendous day... it was so hot! Yet, I think I fell for him the moment I saw his own very eyes..." Like a child, Miriam began speaking, each of her words carried a plethora of emotions with one or two standing out from the rest.

Just like the time when she felt weirded out by hearing commanding voices right after she 'spawned' in Main Kingdom for the first time, and on a desolate, heavenly-like range of mountains at that, all alone; before being saved and from then on protected by this mentor of hers. She behaved like a little child whose thoughts were previously erratic but then became the most pure and kind-hearted of them all with the guiding of this mysterious young girl hidden in the aqueous screen.

Just like how she was guided to pick up items that would be of brutal relevance for the future quest that she was now itching closer and closer to, right at the beginning of the game, when it launched.

Rising Essence, in front of the Ruined Temple.

 

"Hehe, how do I look?" Wearing the Captain's Treasured Memory, Zyv posed for Tongqiu as they walked towards the formation of the Ruined Temple to once again enter the Southern Wonder Region's Little Test trial.

She looked minimalist, those were shoes that resembled a ballet dancer's but were also of small size, probably because of an item's auto-sizing when a players equips them.

Looking down at the minimalist little shoes on her feet, Tongqiu gave a thumbs up before drawing his gaze up her legs; dangerously.

"Ahem, of course my Little Zyv would always look preciously, no matter what."

"Hehe." Without waiting for more words to come out, she waited until Tongqiu arrived at her side to step into the formation together.

[Captain's Treasured Memory]: Type: Shoe Garment, Grade: Magical, Equipment Requirements: LV50+, 112 STR, 75 DEX and 20 DET. Attributes: Movement Speed+3%, DEX+67, DET+22 and LCK+17, Effects: Grants Movement Speed+20% when total HP is at 30% or less and creates a small shield for 15 seconds that will absorb 80% of the damage received from the next attack. The shoes of a long gone young lady who had grieved for her father's disappearance through her entire life, instead of granting any Defense stat, it increases the mobility of its wearer.

Though the Dress of the Freed Soul upper garment was still not available for her, Tongqiu would definitely help her to the best of his capabilities to reach the requirements for it. Namely, LV60. It wasn't as demanding as the Captain's Treasured Memory where she had to have reached up to a certain number for each stat to be able to equip them. And though the Dress of the Free Soul wasn't a particularly offensive equipment, it aided her to what she was looking for the most, to look like the most precious little fairy for Tongqiu and speed! Hellish amounts of speed!

"Oh, look! I took many chunks from the ogres around, you know, of their flesh and some organs like their hearts; I also took the skin of harpies to make some little pastry here and there. Oh! Look, this one is made from their breasts and asses! This one has a bouncy and chewy texture, while this part over here is bouncy yet soft, very soft! You can even melt it in your mouth with your saliva alone, it's very yummy! Taste it, taste it!"

Blink.

With another blink being prompted onto Tongqiu's eyes, he didn't know whether his Little Zyv was going through the right path, or if she was either bored from seeing the same few dozens of types of mobs die all the time or actually be too excited to cook them all instead.

Nevertheless, Little Zyv, as the immortal fairy being that she looked like, would never create horrible things. And if she does, then those would be horrible fun things at the very least!

Tongqiu took a look at the dishes she presented, with Rosey hovering her right hand over her mouth to hid the salivating that she was having...

[Ogre's Soup]: Type: Food, Grade: Powerful, Properties: Ogre's meat are ridiculously difficult to roast or even heat up, specially those who have an inclination towards an element. Yet, the use of this material has been done by a reputable Chef, making everyone who drink this soup with pieces of well cut ogre meat the following effects. STR+13, END+6 and DET+3 for 15 minutes.

[Ogre's Tacos]: Type: Food, Grade: Powerful, Properties: An ogre's heart is bigger than their heads, let alone their brains. While an ogre's brain is all foul and disgusting, the heart has all the juice that a gourmet could only dream of! Total Movement Speed+10% and raw Hit Rate+5% for 20 minutes.

[Harpy's Delicious Dumpling]: Type: Food, Grade: Powerful, Properties: The skin of a harpy can be used for many purposes, the fact that some harpies mold their skin isn't a secret and many real Chefs know of this, its interior is also made from a harpy's most tender flesh of their bodies. DEX+20, LCK+10 and Hit Rate+10% for 20 minutes.

[Softest Pancake (Harpy)]: Type: Food, Grade: Valuable, Properties: A harpy's most glorious body parts have been used for the making of this divine pancake. Do not take this lightly, it isn't like those pancakes that ordinary ignorant chefs would do nor prepare. These are masterpieces! HP+3% and MP and Stamina+25 every second for 8 seconds (resets after taking another bite).

[Bouncy but Sweet Macaroons (Harpy)]: Type: Food, Grade: Valuable, Properties: If you're an ass-man (ass-woman counts too!), this is the one for you! It has an irresistible texture and its flavor can easily be selected by any ingredient, from light to strong and profound (don't worry, there's no much difference in the structure of a harpy's derriere than that of most races, promise no bad odors nor substances in between)! Sight of the consumer is enhanced and the consumer will cleanse any physical related and even some mind related negative altered effects that aren't too strong at least once for each.
