How do we get there?

"hmm..."

"What make's you think that hard Mary."

"Oh, it's none of your business Mark, anyways here! to pay off the bet."

Mary offered up his hand and Inside mary's hand is 100 bucks to pay off the bet he made, Mary thought that Mark would take the money after all Mark was always in the hunt for cash, his the only person who would take the job on a convenience store with a really strict boss. However, Mark refused the money.

"You know what, you don't have to pay me anymore, in fact, change the bet into a favor, will you."

"What!!! Hell no! I rather pay you money than offer you a favor."

"Oh come on, just once please!" Mark pleaded to Mary.

"What's up with you?!?! I thought you were someone who would do anything for money."

"Of course, I still do," said Mark seriously.

"Oh... okay. So why do you need my favor?"

"I just thought I could ask you for help when the time comes."

Mary glared at Mark fiercely.

"I'm not gonna make you freelance in my house, whatsoever."

"Tsk, screw you."

"Ha! I knew it!"

In unbeknownst of the two talking a scary devil has entered the room. The devil slowly walked towards the man behind the counter and grabbed his ear with full strength.

"Ow! ow-ow-ow. Stop!!! you're pulling my ear out!!!"

"Who told you to laze around on work you little shit! I don't pay you to have a conversation with your friend don't I!"

"Oops, that's my queue gotta go!" said Mary

"Stop! help me, Mary!!!

Sorry man there's nothing I could do about it, you dug your own grave there, though I did help you dig hehe. I already felt her presence when she entered but I didn't tell Mark so I could see him suffer.

That woman was really scary though, I didn't even see her face properly because of her devilish aura but I could tell she was a beauty. So that's why! because he likes suffering under beautiful people!

"Ahem" Let's not ruin our friend's reputation inside our minds now.

Anyways back to thinking, how could I reach that high without the use of prime skills?

Last night back at the forest. Shea and Mary found the dimensional riff however the riff was on the air.

Normally Mary would be asleep at this time, tucked up in bed and resting his body. But this time he had to use all of his energy just to get up into the crack in the air.

"Puff, puff, puff, I can't jump anymore it's way too high! No matter how much Qi I put into my legs it's still not enough to get up there. Hey~ mary do you not know any ways to get up there?" said Shea as she lays on the ground.

The riff in the air was about 1 km above the ground. If we settle this the modern way, the best solution would be to ride a helicopter all the way up there, but I don't have enough resources to buy one nor do I have the authority to buy a helicopter from the get-go. I could use magic to create a stair in the air, but I can't alter the matter of already existing spells without the help of my prime skill [Magicmeister], there's also angel wings but I can't access those since their also prime skills. Aaaa... If only I could use the permission already! that way I could use any of my prime skills and create solid-air stairs...

Wait a minute... Solid air stairs... OH RIGHT!

"Hey, Shea can't you use your prime skill to create stairs all the way up there? You know that shield that you used to kill the Hobgoblin!"

"..."

"Shea?"

"Ah, about that... I can't use those anymore."

"What, why didn't you say so? I would have handled that hobgoblin like how I make bread."

"You make bread?"

"That's not the point! What I'm saying is, If you only told me you can't use that prime skill anymore I would have killed the Hobgoblin myself, heck you didn't even tell me why you can't use them anymore!" Mary said as he scolds Shea.

"You don't have to worry, I'll tell you, ok."

"Good, glad we can come to an understanding," said Mary as he takes a deep breath.

"My prime skill, or so you call it, can only be used to demons. I didn't know why, but my older sister always told me not to use them on demons, especially high-class ones. She said that if I use them in front of high-class demons consequences will befall me, she never really told me what kind of consequences but she did tell me to be careful and that I should protect myself so I'm always grateful for her warnings." Shea said as she smiled happily with her hands on top of her heart.

Mary couldn't help but be enamored by this beautiful scenery. His heart skipped a beat, something that he didn't feel ever since his transmigration. Of course with the sudden change in the body, he could feel the heat raise towards his face.

"Seems like you have an overprotective sister," said Mary with his face full red and the back of his head facing Shea.

"Yeah, I do..."

The area that surrounded the two became silent, as more time passed by the silence turned into awkwardness,

As the moment passed, the two were in a weird scenario, no one talked for a long time, and worse they couldn't speak a single thing because they barely know each other. But as time passes, both of them started to realize their situation, the frozen atmosphere that surrounded the two was then broken.

"I think we should go back," said Mary

"Yeah... We should."

"..."

The walk back home was deadly, deadly as in socially deadly. No one spoke a single thing and the two were keeping a good 6 feet distance against each other which made the air tenser. You can think of the scenario as the two of them recently met through a mutual friend and that mutual suddenly disappeared which made the air tense, where no one can say a single word because it's too awkward.

After walking a long distance they arrived at their destination, the home of Mary, even though they went out at the ripe time of the night they arrived back home at the sweet time of dawn. But in the experience of the two, time might as well be longer.

They opened the door and were greeted with the clean air of the house, just a moment ago they were surrounded by blood and corpses and now they are in a neat and peaceful place.

Because of the change in environment, the tense air between the two was gone in a swoosh.

"You could go and take a bath now," said Mary

"A bath? is there a river nearby? or do you have one of those giant wooden tubs?"

"Oh, right. I forgot... Do you remember the room where you went to change? In that room, there should be a white tub that made it look like it's made of porcelain, yeah that was a tub. And I remember you asking about the faucet, there should be something like it near the tub, I already answered how to turn it on so you should have no problem with how to use it the make water flow in the tub. Do you understand?"

"Yes...???" Shea answered with a confused look.

"You know what, never mind, I'll show you myself. Come here."

After Mary said that he'll show Shea how it's done her eyes lit up.

"Okay!"

Shea followed mary all the way to the bathroom, in there mary showed how the tub works and what to do afterward when she was done, Shea was confused at first but after Mary had shown it visually she was appealed.

"Ohhh, so that's how a 'faucet' works," Shea said full of curiosity as she turns the faucet on and off.

"I've never really shown you before because of the time, but yeah that is how a 'faucet' works."

As Shea played around with the faucet, the tub was slowly becoming full.

"Ah, it's finished. You can go in there once you're done playing around."

"Okay~!"

Mary closed the door of the bathroom and went to his parent's bedroom.

"The water bill might actually increase this month," Mary grumbled to himself

Mary arrived at his parent's bedroom and started to snoop around their closet. In there he saw different kinds of embarrassment that his parents were hiding.

"I can't with this, why the hell is there a lot of BDSM stuff? and why does my mother's nightwear all look seriously dangerous, like there's a lot of skin being exposed with this cloth and nothing is hidden in it whatsoever!!!."

The night dress that Mary was holding was a semi-transparent light blue sexy nightgown with a short skirt that exposes everything under the legs.

Of course with this night gown he couldn't help but imagine what Shea would look like wearing it.

Why am I imagining it!!! stop! we only met I can't have thoughts like this especially since we're living on the same house!

"I have no choice, I'm prepared to make sacrifices."

Mary said to himself full of dedication and confidence.
