15 Damn freaks
Absurd? Stupid? Spontaneous?
I didn´t have doubts.
There was a trap.
-... Why?
-Kukuku~, you have a huge potential, I´ve been watching you for a time and I can be sure of it, your mind, heart, desires, I want to be part of everything you´re about to do, and of course... Have your children ~.
-... My what?
The lips of the woman met mine, a humid dance developed inside our mouths with her smooth body stuck to mine. In normal circumstances, I would have felt like a champ for kissing such a beauty, but I looked back to the moon and noticed that I only had around twenty or ten minutes before it disappeared.
I have to get through those gates.
I tried to move away from the woman, but I couldn´t, my body wasn´t able to move.
When I looked down, to where our bodies kept touching, I noticed that my entire body except my head was frozen without me noticing.
She took advantage of my inability to feel cold.
Separating her lips from mine in a thread of saliva, the woman looked at me with a sadistic smile.
-Kukuku- Ahaha- Ahahaha! You, humans, are so easy to deceive, Did you really think a being so perfect as myself would want to serve an insect like you? Don´t get cocky!
Paf*
Her hand left my cheek red after the impact.
-...Heh, and me thinking what was the trap, good, you have me, How can an empty shell be of any use to you in the outside world?
-Hmph, despite being an inferior raze, your body truly has great potential. Said the woman resting her slender fingers on my lips.
-So I will make you my puppet~.
It was a good move, she was conscious of how attractive she was and her words managed to baffle me enough to let my guard down, not bad at all.
She was a strong and crafty woman.
-Just what I like.
-...Don´t worry~ I´ll make sure to take good care of your body~. Said the woman dipping her tongue in my mouth again.
I´ll make this a custom once I get out of here.
Before she could move away, I destroyed the ice on my body and embraced her, holding her hands behind her back in the process.
-Mhm?! Phwa* How did you free from the ice?!
-Humans are easy to deceive yes, but you should learn that there is an exception to everything~. I said licking my lips with a mocking smile.
-Damn human!
I showed it from the beginning, at the moment she froze part of my arms in her introduction, it was obvious that she couldn´t freeze me indirectly. Honestly, my victory was thanks to her letting that detail pass.
All I needed after was to concentrate mana around my body, I supposed that thanks to my high affinity with ice I wouldn´t be easily frozen.
And oh man I was right.
I couldn´t contain the emerging smile on my face after watching her expression.
-Consider this as gender equality, tighten the teeth!
-Eh?
I raised my hand and activated Putrefaction on it, the eyes of the woman drowned in a fake panic by knowing what that meant.
-Yo-You think you can threaten me?! I am the queen of ice!
-Hahaha! Good! I keep liking you more and more! Keep fighting!
-Damn freak!
Crystals of ice were materialized in our surroundings, I moved her body in front of me and put myself behind her, with my hand threatening to melt her neck if she shot.
Hah* Hah* Hah*
We were at a dead point where any of us could die, the air was so tense that breathing was heavy, the sweat slide down from our pores and our eyes exchanged gazes to know who would move first.
-Hah* Hah* Kukuku, not bad human, but you should already know that you can´t win against me.
-Hah* Who knows, today may be your last defeat.
-...
-...
Pff* Hahahaha! *
The ice crystals disintegrated, I let go of the arms of the woman and deactivated my skill.
-Kukuku, as I thought you are perfect for me, cross those gates and make a pact with me!
-Hmph, I also think we are one for the other, you´re a very interesting damn crazy woman.
Hahahaha*
-Well, we´ll keep this conversation outside, I´m running out of time.
-Kukuku, I´ll see you outside, master~. Said the woman bending with an insinuating smile.
I ran to the ice gates, after opening them, a bottomless tunnel of ice was waiting for me.
... Ugh, It had to be a fall.
Before my body refused to move, I jumped in hoping to not die.
As I fell, ice was covering my body, I could see through the reflection of the walls how bit by bit a crystalline armor was made.
I feel... Powerful
When the ice finished covering me, I could appreciate the design of the armor, but the dark blue ice gave it an air a little bit too sinister.
In general, the armor seemed like a skeleton with feathers, the helmet had the shape of a bird's skull, the visor, and the bevor were the upper and lower part of the beak, and my nape had some feathers dancing in the air, the corporal armor had abdominal muscles with the design of skeletal hands intertwined, the back had a pair of skeletal wings with sharp feathers of ice, my arms and hands were wrapped in gauntlets with claws on the fingers, the hip armor was like a pair of wings coming together, and my legs and feet were embraced with sharp greaves and boots with claws.
The weapon is not included eh.
The armor seemed fragile and thin, but I was sure that it wasn´t going to be easy to break it, after all, it comes from a legendary beast.
At the end of the tunnel, a green light began to shine and engulfed me.
A name was engraved in my mind.
-Welcome back, master.
-... Haha, I´m back, Fei Xue.
-Kukuku~.
Fei Xue, the name of the legendary beast that I had made a pact with.
-Would you like to try my blessing?
-Then that was part of your blessing eh... Mmh.
A cold sensation bothered me in my neck, but when I touch it with my hand I couldn´t find anything, Fei Xue, seeing my annoyance, generated a tiny piece of ice with a circular shape and put it in front of me.
-Thanks... Ah shit, Molly´s gonna kill me.
-Don´t you like it? Is the proof that we swore to be together forever~.
-... Yhea well, we´ll talk about that later.
-Kya~ There´s no need to be shy~.
On the left side of my neck, there was a new tattoo with the shape of a bird with the wings opened and surrounded by snowflakes, the size was proximally three fingers.
I honestly liked the design, but I wasn´t sure about how Molly and the castle politic´s would take it.
-Well, nothing can be done, guess I´ll have to listen to a new sermon.
-Kukuku, Are you afraid of something master? Do you want me to freeze it forever?
-Ahaha, no, no, I have a better task for you.
-I´m at your orders.
-You saw the family I was talking to earlier right? Make sure nobody kills them, doesn´t matter the method, just be discreet and keep me informed of any dangerous situation.
-As you demand master, I hope a good reward for my hard work~.
-Do it and I´ll give you anything you want.
Fei Xue kissed me on the cheek before turning into a bird and fly away at great speed to where Victoria and her brothers went.
-Thank... You... Sir...
-Ah, you still here, no problem, I´m just helping someone who helped me.
The ghost elf descended again to his grave when he finished to thank me since he didn´t turn into light particles it meant that there was still work to do.
Damn, I´m exhausted, let´s find Lea and end this day.
Since everything seemed almost the same as when I was on that bridge, I knew the time passed differently in both places.
-But before.
I put my hand in a nearby tree.
-Freeze.
A magic circle came out of my hand and both the tree and ground were instantly frozen. The air around was so cold tath tiny drops of ice fell to the ground from the branches.
Jajaja, pacts are way too cheaters.
