I have no title ideas.

(A.N: So, first of all, a thousand apologies to anyone who was hoping for 18+ content. I thought it would be difficult to write, but I didn't expect it be quite THAT difficult. It would probably be more disappointing to have a bad H-scene than none at all anyway. Second of all, please bear with the changing tenses. I'm trying things out to see what works best. Third, from now on at the beginning of sentences I'm adding ** around how someone speaks so it's clearer. Finally, I hope you (whoever the heck 'you' happen to be) are (still) enjoying my novel.)

What happened after that was both predictable and enlightening. I had to use anti-detection magics to prevent the noises being heard since we really went at it. I never could work out how some of the things in her description would even work, but she could move that luscious body in just the right way... It's also easy to tell that Peroroncino could without any difficulty make my internet history look tame. I was surprised to note that I took this in stride even though it was my first time. Curious.

The next morning, I woke up still holding her, and decided to wait for her to wake up before moving because one of my arms was underneath her and she would be awoken rather rudely if I decided to just pull my hand out randomly. It took longer than expected, and my arm went numb, but eventually the other party began to stir.

Shalltear: *demurely* Mmm, Dabilosi-samaa... So rough...

Dabilosi: *soft* How is my lady feeling?

Shalltear: I'm- *pause, then panicking* Dabilosi-sama, how long have I been asleep?!

Dabilosi: *calmly* Well, It's 9:00 now, but I wasn't really paying attention to the time.

After saying this, I got up from the bed.

Dabilosi: If you need to be anywhere, I won't stop you.

Hurriedly, Shalltear puts on a new set of clothes and rushes out. I don't say quickly, because she did herself up to look prim and proper, even though she was obviously already late. I quietly contemplated for a time the thought of following her, but in the end I decided not to- after all, it would probably lead to more complications. Instead I uses my ring to teleport to my private quarters and talk to the member of the Lemegeton still there, probably incredibly bored.

Then again, he has been stuck wandering around Nazarick since his creation so it most likely doesn't affect him too much. Cody and Ethan are in my room as I appear. Oh dear.

Cody: Wazzuuup!

Ethan: Hey, hey apple.

Dabilosi: I need to talk with Forneus.

Cody: Sounds like communist propoganda but ok!

Ethan: Okay-desu

Yet, only Ethan left. Cannot read social cues... Check.

Dabilosi: *Slightly annoyed*Alone?

Cody: Oh... Okay.

Of course, now I feel terrible. What made it even worse was that he then proceeded to smile and walk out with a spring in his step. But, I did what I had to do in order to gain some peace and quiet. I have no regrets.

Dabilosi: I am going to be returning to the Slane Theocracy shortly. Following this I will be moving to the Dagonic Kingdom to recruit a few people who can move freely between countries, since as far as we can tell, it is the land with the most number of 'experts' unknown to the rest of the world. My only question can be phrased as such - With your abilities to make a good name for any man and that man be made beloved by friend and foe alike, is it too much to assume you could provide me an exit from the Theocracy whereby those in power are in both awe and fear of me?

Forneus: A 'good' name is a very malleable term milord. However, it is in part dependant on prior interactions with the party in question.

Dabilosi: Very well then. We will leave after I've played a quick game or two.

Even after games become outdated many people will continue playing them, especially one specific type of game. Such legendary titles included Era of Umpires II and Ci*ili*ation V which are infinitely better with multiple people and take a long time to finish,so I offered Forneus the chance to play against me in the latter. Long story short, he enjoyed it and although I won both of the games we played, I had to pass off a lot of mistakes as 'giving him a chance'. Since I won by a small margin the second game though I think he bought it.

Dabilosi: Alright, that is enough now. We must be going or at this rate nothing will get done today. Not that that will cause many problems, but it would be most unprofessional to leave Shizu there for longer without reason. [Gate].

I opened the gate directly into the room where two of the Six cardinals were discussing something. No need to be overly gentle after all. They loosened up ever so slightly when I walked through, but were on guard again immediately upon the arrival of my newest travel companion.

Dabilosi: *Loud, but not shouting* Don't be alarmed, this is just my friend Forneus. If we wanted you dead, you would be dead by now.

Berenice: *Almost growling* Is this a threat? You don't need to be subtle about it in that case, we already know of your strength.

Forneus: *Soothing* My lady, this was not the intent of my companion. Surely you could find it in your heart of infinite wisdom to believe that we meant no harm. Sadly jokes can at times be too realistic, and both parties too focused on assuming the worst, that it leads to relationships breaking down that could easily be continued, and to the benefit of all involved.

Huh. I thought he would be more eloquent than that. On the other hand there are three people other than Forneus in the room and I am the only one who is not being affected by Forneus' aura, which makes people more compliant and slowly alters perception of the affected people towards the designated people. Disgustingly perfect.

Raymond: *Brisk* Pardon my associate. Would you please tell us who exactly you are?

Forneus: *Calm* I am the 30th Demon of the Lemegeton, Forneus. I teach those who summon me of rhetoric and tongues.

Berenice: *Rage evident* Darnell. Why have you brought a demon into the house of the gods? We should have you killed for this.

Dabilosi: You wish you had that power. If you did, maybe you would actually get somewhere fighting a war against the elves, and not just throwing away the lives of your citizens.

Forneus seemed to have made a huge mistake, but I had to continue with it. I did notice that the aura was getting stronger though.

Berenice: *Obviously repressing anger* I can barely stand it when you insult me, but mocking the noble sacrifices of the common people is many steps too far.

Dabilosi:*Sarcastically* Well aren't you just a shining beacon of justice. I wasn't mocking them, I was merely criticising the efficiency of your current method for waging war. Throwing more people at something won't always solve your problems.

Raymond: Ah, that makes much more sense. From what I gathered in our previous discussions you did not seem like a person with that kind of morals.

What kind of morals you idiot. If you're my ally, you're rich and if you are my enemy, you're dead. If I can profit off you, then unless you are of Nazarick or one of my closest friends I will rob you blind. That just about sums up my moral integrity. But then came the big question.

Raymond: *Questioningly* What, pray tell, would we need to give you in order to have your assurance that you will come to our aid in a time of need, and not side with our enemies in any circumstance?

Major warning bells were immediately set off in my mind. If I swore myself to their defense then I may be required to fight Nazarick if it becomes necessary to war with the Theocracy for unseeable reasons. If I deny them this, they will forever be suspicious of me. This could become a major chance though.

Dabilosi: Return question, which metal and crystal mines do you have at this point in time?

Raymond: I am the cardinal of earth. If I was not, this is not a question I would be able to answer. Is there one in particular you would like?

Dabilosi: List them. There are many powerful materials I require to--- nevermind, but I have no leads on where I might discover them. If there is a mine of even one of the greater ores, I would not only defend this land with my life, but even draw many of my allies to this place to aid in it's time of need!

I lied. There is no way I would do that. For starters my life is far more valuable than any promise I could ever make, and even if there was no way to save my own life I sure as hell wouldn't drag anyone else down with me... Except the enemy, drag as many of those to the depths of hell as I bloody well can and go out with a bang.

Raymond: We have a number of mines, and I'll even explain what the ores are used for, as long as it doesn't divulge any important secrets: Troecrotium is used as a cheap and heavy but strong metal that mixes with steel to make a stronger metal, Zartubion is a lightweight metal generally used for-.....-||Umbrium||-.....- and Lltrotine.

Yes Raymond very cool. But I'm especially interested in that Umbrium. It's properties seem very similar to YGGDRASIL's ||Astral Dust|| a high grade material used for teleportation and and fast transportation structures, along with a variety of other uses.

This could become VERY amusing.
