Chapter 240: Descending
Chapter 240: Descending
[Ding!] [Ding!] [Ding!]
[Ding!] [Ding!] [Ding!]
"Calm your tits!"
Zach yelled as he opened the notification and saw Victoria spamming 'Hello' like crazy.
[I wish this game had a 'block' option.] Zach replied.
[I am free!] Victoria sent.
[Hello, I am Zach.]
[That's soooo lame!]
"Heh!"
Zach scoffed and asked, [Did you leave the guild?]
[Yes!]
[Hmm. A week has passed, so I guess it makes sense.]
[Actually, Elliott pulled yet another cheeky move to stop me.]
[What did he do?!] Zach asked with an exclamation mark after the question mark to show his anger.
[It's a long story, so are you coming to pick me up, or would I have to ascend alone?] Victoria asked.
[I will come to pick you up. The Ascending portal in this realm is in the middle of nowhere, and I have heard some rumors about that area recently. So I don't want you to come alone.]
[Okay. I am at the spot where you pushed me down and later kissed me. Come fast.]
"…"
Aria raised her brows at Zach and asked, "What did she say?"
Other players couldn't see the player's screen unless the player had allowed them to.
"She finally left the guild, so I am going to pick her up." Zach jumped down the throne and said, "I will come back in a few minutes."
"Wait. I am coming with you!" Aria demanded.
"Why don't you spend some time with Aurora? Give her company," Zach replied with a shrug.
"Okay…"
"No, it's fine." Aurora shook her head and said, "I am feeling sleepy, so I will sleep. See you two tomorrow. And hopefully, Victoria too."
"Are you sure? Because I will get angry if Milo informs me that you were feeling lonely again."
"I woke up earlier than usual, you know? And I have been awake for one hour now. Yesterday, I was able to stay awake for 55 minutes," Aurora stated. Then, she furrowed her brows and uttered, "And obviously, I wouldn't want to stay alone, unless I am sleeping."
"Fine~" Zach groaned and said, "I will bring the essence pill tomorrow. And hopefully, it will boost your healing too."
Aurora laid down on the throne and turned to the side to look at Zach. She smiled at him and said, "Good night."
"Good night…"
Aria whispered something in Aurora's ears and jumped off the throne.
Zach raised his eyes in suspicion, but he didn't ask anything to Aria. However, as soon as they left Aria's domain, Zach turned to Aria and stared at her with a curious look on his face.
"What?" Aria asked while averting her gaze as though she knew why Zach was staring at her.
"What did you whisper to her?" Zach asked with a knowing look on his face.
"Nothing. I just wished her good night," Aria replied with a shrug, but she was still avoiding eye contact with Zach, so he was sure she was lying.
When Aria glanced at Zach, he found her staring at her in disbelief.
"Fine~!" Aria groaned and reluctantly said, "I told her that I would try my best to suck you dry, so I can extract more essence and make a bigger pill."
"Oh… wait. The size of the pill or the amount of the essence doesn't matter in the lower stages. So why…"
Zach stopped on his words as he realized the answer to his own question.
"She simply wants to taste more of my essence, am I right?" Zach asked with a judging look on his face.
"Yup."
"Even in this condition, her perviness has no limits…" Zach muttered under his breath.
"Now, then, shall we descend?"
Zach nodded and said, "There are many portal points in this realm compared to the last one. But I think the portal from where the lower realm's players' ascend is the one in the forest."
"Most of the players we have met said they were teleported into the forest, so I guess it's safe to assume that you are right."
Zach opened the map and checked the nearest portal.
"There are two portals near us. One if of course in the capital kingdom, which is roughly a 10 mins walk or a 3 minutes sprint. And another portal is in the nearby town that is near the river," Zach read.
"How far is that portal?"
"Around five minutes walk?" Zach replied.
"So… we are going to the nearest one?" Aria wondered with a curious look on her face.
"Well, normally, I would say yes, but today, no." Zach sighed and uttered, "WE have never been to that town, so I am not sure if we should visit there just to access the portal. Let's just go to the capital."
Aria chuckled and said, "I guess you are purposely trying to get yelled at by Victoria."
Zach and Aria rushed to the capital and accessed the portal to descend to the lower realm.
"Hmm. Nice." Zach glanced around and uttered, "This place looks lovely as always."
"Unlike it was a week ago…" Aria muttered.
"Yeah…"
"Where is Victoria, though?" Aria asked curiously. "Is she waiting for you at a café or something? Maybe you two already planned a date and that's why you wanted to keep me with Aurora, so you could spend time with your love ex-girlfriend?"
"Wow. You know, out of all the girls, you are most jealous of Victoria. Why is that?"
Shortly after, Zach remembered the rivalry between Aria and Victoria during the dungeon expedition, where Aria tried to show her dominance to Victoria by mentioning his relationship with Zach. However, Victoria asserted her dominance by stating facts about her relations with Zach and how she took all of Zach's first times.
Since that time, Aria and Victoria's rivalry had started. But it wasn't as though they hated each other.
SIGH!
"Victoria said she was waiting for me at the spot where I kissed her. So she should be in this garden somewhere…"
Zach glanced around and spotted Victoria standing at a distance with her back facing at Zach and Aria.
"There she is!"
Zach rushed to her and yelled, "Victoria!"
Victoria turned around and the expression on her face changed from grumpy to happy, but it soon turned back to grumpy when she noticed Aria behind Zach.
