Chapter #62

Sabrina burst through the nest even before Zeno had started skinning the basilisk.

Turning around Zeno saw her completely shocked as her mouth was wide open as she pointed at the beast before at him.

She seemed to be speechless and hyperventilating slightly as Zeno could guess why. Considering her reaction to be normal Zeno went back to skinning.

"I went through extra mutations back when I was training. It is quite normal for me to be stronger than the average Witcher." Zeno explained as he butchered the beast.

"Oh! Well, I was getting afraid that Tetra might be onto something." Sabrina patted her breasts as she got her breathing in order.

Zeno gave her a glare hard enough to send her hyperventilating once again.

By the time she got her bearings back Zeno was done with the beast, all the usable parts had been separated and hanged to let the blood out.

"Well, you need to give it some time for the blood. Afterwards we can get it back to the city. Though I can have my payment since the beast is dead." Zeno said, opening his hand.

"Right, but I don't have enough on me, you have to wait for the rest.. Sorry for overreacting..." Sabrina put a pouch full of coins on his and and said as she mumbled at the end.

Zeno wasn't really angry with her since he expected such things from the population but it would be weird if he didn't get angry.

"I guess it is something I need to get used to, after all I am inexperienced as you are." Zeno shrugged.

Not expecting an answer Zeno got out of the nest to gather some wood to start a small fire. He wanted to try the meat and he couldn't really show off his improved Igni to an enchantress.

Sabrina followed him with her gaze unsure of what to do as the conversation had ended in a pretty awkward point.

'No one told me witchers are so complicated!' She felt like going back to seducing him would be a better choice but he already proved resistant to her moves.

Soon a fire was lit and Zeno carefully skewered the basilisk meat, it was already treated by him and could be eaten once cooked correctly.

"Wait? You're cooking the beast! Are you mad?!" Sabrina naturally freaked out after seeing him.

"I know how to cook monsters into edibles, and my extra mutations would allow me to eat a Manticore raw and be fine. Also no one said I was cooking for you." Zeno answered.

"You sound like I can actually eat this thing..." Sabrina gulped as the smell reached her nose.

"It is edible by anyone, so I treated the meat. Though it would be better if I let the meat rest for some time but we don't have that kind of time at our hands." Zeno explained and took one of the skewers.

The meat was perfectly cooked, dripping with fat. Zeno ate it immediately and closed his eyes in bliss.

'Indeed this is much better for my palate than consuming the beast whole.' Zeno decided that he will expand his culinary skills in this world.

Sabrina wordlessly took one skewer herself before cooling it to edible levels. She took a small bite before letting out a moan that Zeno was sure to be from an orgasm.

"So good! Why haven't you just become a chef!?" Sabrina exclaimed as she started to devour the meat.

Zeno was dumbfounded, his cooking wasn't at this level but he suddenly realized that this world was medieval and he can't expect much from their food.

"I wasn't given much of a choice." Zeno answered her, taking much of her joy in the process.

"Are all witchers moody? Or did I run into an exceptional one?" Sabrina asked.

"I really don't mean to be but I can't help it. Also it is fun to take the wind out of someone's sails." Zeno grinned.

"You sadistic bastard!" Sabrina laughed.

The mood that went down and awkward had suddenly recovered as they started to share stories of their respective education.

"I think I have enough juice to bring us all back since you packed the monster nicely." Sabrina said as she gazed on the remains of the beast.

Everything was packed and put in neat packages that came from someone as Sabrina felt like questioning their origin might be dangerous for her.

Still the neat packaging lessened the burden on her as she didn't have to keep the portal open for too long.

"Jean is already here, I'd rather ride back instead of trusting you with portals." Zeno said ruthlessly before lifting one of the packages and leaving.

"I apologized for that already!" Sabrina groaned as she followed after, a simple spell lifting the remaining packages.

Outside she found a chestnut mare pulling a cart behind it, for some reason Sabrina thought that the horse looked annoyed.

Zeno loaded the package to the cart as Sabrina did the same afterwards.

"I am not even going to question how your horse heard you all the way from here and how it even got a cart as I cannot imagine you having it beforehand." Sabrina said while looking Jean in the eye.

Jean didn't back off and stared at her unblinking until Sabrina had to tear her gaze away.

"She is special and smart too. You wouldn't get it." Zeno didn't bother to explain more.

There were enough sorcerers out there vying for Witcher secrets, he certainly didn't want anyone going after his horse.

"Still there's a problem... Where am I going to ride since I doubt your mare would let me ride her." Sabrina said as Zeno mounted Jean.

"She will as long as you sit behind me." Zeno said while offering a hand.

Sabrina allowed a small smirk on her face as she sat behind Zeno, she immediately started feeling up his muscles.

She was glad that Zeno didn't bother to wear armor, it had confused her at first but considering how fast he is he likely didn't need it.

"Oh you made a very terrible mistake Witcher. I am going to enjoy myself along the way." Sabrina whispered to his ears.

"Well, I am used to being admired by the opposite sex. You'll be fine as long as you don't go overboard." Zeno said.

Sabrina stopped her groping after hearing him as she was just trying to get a rise out of him.

"Will you die if you get a little bit aroused?! My master will kill me if she hears about this." She soft punched him as she complained.

"Well, sorry about that but your efforts are wasted especially after I slayed that succubus." Zeno apologized but the smirk on his face suggested otherwise.

"Charm of a succubus shouldn't result in long lasting effects though... I can inspect your body if you want." Sabrina said, somewhat worried.

"My body is fine, I just exhausted all my libido. Give it a day or two." Zeno said.

"You expended all..." Sabrina repeated until she got the meaning, she went silent completely.

Zeno could see her trying to reach at his crotch but she couldn't quite reach it as Zeno and Jean coordinated and kept her hanging.

'...' Zeno was dumbfounded.

[How horny is she?] System wondered.

{We really need a 'No Horny' bat made out of karmic virtue...} Ouryuu muttered.

Zeno decided to sing a song to distract her attention from his dragon.

"Now and then I think of when we were together.

Like when you said you felt so happy you could die.

I told myself you are right for me.

But felt so lonely in your company..." Zeno sang as his vocal chords arranged themselves according to the song.

"..." Sabrina felt like Zeno should change profession, anything other than being a Witcher.
