Chapter 7: Quest
They walked back to the lady who was in charge of receiving money from the customers.
Soft blue lights ran along the edges of the walls, making everything look cleaner than it probably was.
"Hey we’re back" Isabel said, her voice coming out sweet and warm. "I really enjoyed your services as always. But how much are the clothes we bought?"
She asked because she had also taken a few for herself. The bags at her side were heavier than they looked.
Some men nearby were stunned by her voice and beauty for a few seconds before looking away.
One of them almost bumped into a rack of jackets before catching himself.
The lady in charge scanned the clothes with a small machine that hummed blue.
"Thank you, and it will be 1000 H-Crystals" the lady replied. Her tone was professional but then, she glanced at Lynx softly and winked?.. or something like it. Wow.
Here’s the thing about this world: Crystals are the currency. Every race has their own. Humans use H-Crystals. Small, shiny, it’s like notes but harder and smaller. Heavier than paper should be.
1 H-Crystal = roughly 2k dollars.
An average poor family can live 2 solid years on 500 H-Crystals, and he just bought 1000 H-Crystals worth of clothes. The thought hits harder when he do the maths.
’Wow. Once again thank you, Absolute God. Now I’m not poor.’ He watched Isabel pay, and she didn’t even flinch, like she’s used to buying things expensive. (She is technically)
The lady winked at him again. Lynx just smiled, his transcendent charm blessing doing the rest of the work.
They left with lots of bags. On their walk home, they talked about anything. The weather, the city, old memories Isabel made up to fill the gaps.
"You know, I don’t know why your sister hates you," Isabel suddenly said when both of them were just enjoying the comfortable silence.
"I think she likes you but suppressed her feeling and blossomed the hatred, and it’s been 5-6 years since she’s seen you last. If she sees you now, she’ll forget about the hate" she laughed softly.
"I don’t really care if someone hates or likes me, but I’ll try to make her like me" he smiled, and every time Lynx smiled, Isabel got lost in his face for a few seconds too long. Her thoughts going wilder each passing moment.
"Why are you staring and your face is getting redder? Not that I’m complaining... I’m actually happy that I got a beautiful hot woman like yourself staring at me while blushing hard."
’Real smooth Jack. Real smooth. You’re good at this for someone who hasn’t been this close to a lady his entire life,’ he thought in his head.
’Well, it’s the looks. If I was like this on Earth... hell I’d be worshipped as a deity.’ The thought amused him more than it should have.
[Hey you’re Lynx now. Call yourself Jack one more time and it will bring out a system punishment.]
’Ease up system dude, relax. I get it now and which system gives punishment for name mismatch?’ He rubbed his temple like that would make it stop.
"Hey Lynx, are you okay? You’ve been staring distantly for some sec... I mean minutes now. Or do you want us to stop walking and use an automobile?" Isabel called softly, quickly correcting herself. Her brows pulled together in concern.
’Yeah automobile is what they call cars. It’s powered by mana and really fast. They are really expensive here... no driver needed. It just needs to know the place you’re heading to and voila, you’re there.’
"Yeah I’m good. Just thinking about my life now. The academy, me being blessed at 18, and you of course.
Life’s going to be really different now. I’ve changed aunt. Physically and mentally. I’m not the scrawny sickly kid I once was. I spent 5 years dead but living. My needs and desires have changed... I don’t even look like a normal blessed.
My sigil on my head is blue and silver. My looks changed. I have to seal almost all my aura to avoid questions and unnecessary problems. I feel like a different soul in a new body." Lynx released his ’thoughts’ to her.
They aren’t really true or lies either, but the emotions in it are 100% true. The pain and failure of his past life still haunts him.
Then she dropped her bags and his too, and pulled him in a tight hug. Her arms were stronger than they looked. The scent of her shampoo hit him, clean and smelling sweetly.
"Hey look at me" He looked. Her eyes were steady. "You will always be Lynx. No matter your appearance or power. You will always be Lynx Azarion, son of Utah Azarion and my sister Rebeca.
You will always be my own, the kid I trained and loved. You will always be you and nothing will change that," then she hugged tighter.
Deliberately skipping the part he said he was thinking about her and how his needs and desires had changed.
’Wow if I knew this emotional release talk would lead to a tight hug, with her boobs crushing my chests.
I would have done this early. Well, there’s still time.’ His arms came up slowly to return it.
After the hug, they went back to talking about a few more things, and Lynx kept teasing her. The tension from before broke into something lighter.
.....
They got home. Isabel went to her room for a shower and a maid showed Lynx his new room... upstairs, kind of close to Isabel’s.
"Hey system" he called after he finished washing up. "Can I see other people’s stats, blessed or not... any creature?"
[Yeah sure. Stats can vary though. But yeah, it’s available. You have to spin the APS to get it, and you don’t have any APS spin Key or points.]
We’ll that suc...’ he hasn’t even finish his thought when the system added.
[but if you can fuck Isabel tonight... infact]
Ding!
[Quest: Fuck Isabel and satisfy her tonight:- Apparently she hasn’t has sex for so long and is sexually fustrated, help her quench the fire and claim reward.
Reward: 1000 APS point. Primodial Vison (can see anything)
Note: If you satisfy her well you’ll gain APS points]
"Damn the system really went all out, well it was on part of my plans to do anyway. No harm in getting it done sonner"
He laughed, then he checked himself on the huge mirror on the wall. ’Fuck i look to good, even with this towel I look freeking hot, I’m going to her room like this right now, before the water on my hair dries up’.
He left for Isabel’s room.
He pressed a blue machine at the door and spoke to it. "Aunt it’s me Lynx, I came to talk to you about the academy". ’The tech here is something else for a mana world.
Few secs later, the door opened. Lynx was speechless for a few seconds and kept staring at the heavenly beauty standing right in front of him.
She wore tight black tops, really short pants and her hair wet and glistening. Boobs threatening to spill out and her curves so pronounced that he was already getting a boner.
Isabel caught his gaze roaming all over her body, they were anything beyond innocent and the worst part? her legs was getting weaker.
Lynx knew he has been busted and smirked "I came to talk about the academy, can we talk inside".
He was wearing only a towel and Isabel was ogling at his really sharp features, chest and abs so carved perfectly and his skin was glowing faintly.
"Yeah sure" she led him inside, they sat on the bed. Her hands shaking faintly, ’what’s happening to me’, she thought.
But she knew one thing. With the way her body is getting hotter and hotter right now, this night going beyond the talk of ’Academy’
(A/N: Isabel is Loaded, money, beautiful and smoking hot.
1000 H-Crystal is about 2 Million Dollars
Damn Lynx you lucky bastard)
