Chapter 32 Pain And Gain (6)
"Why are you here? It has only been an hour."
"To be exact, it has been 45 minutes."
"There is still a plenty of time left, then."
"No. You are only given 45 minutes to finish your job today."
"By who?"
"Me."
"Okay."
I sigh slightly in exasperation, stand up, then pat my butt to clean some dirt sticking to my pants. I take one last glance at Genelos\' cage to find that he is no longer there anymore.
With a shrug, I follow right behind Valeria, who is already walking outside the stable. The walk to my hut, though not really full of conversation, is considerably less tense than the walk to the stable from the Training Field.
I ask whether the time given to me to feed the Wyverns will change over the time, and luckily she says that there is no such a thing as time reduction.
I am confused at first, but when she says that I am obligated to finish feeding the Wyverns at 5, everything suddenly makes sense. My time to feed them wasn\'t reduced; I just spent my time a lot longer in the Training Field.
By the time I know it, we have already arrived at my hut. Valeria tells me to take my bathing utensils while she waits outside, and I do that in less than two minutes.
The moment I get out of the hut, Darth Valeria has taken her blind mask off, allowing the usual Valeria to show up. I am glad Valeria has the aura I am comfortable with surrounding her, but I become quite worried after seeing her expectant eyes.
Judging by how things are developing, she definitely will take a bath together with me. We are heading there anyway; there is no way she wouldn\'t join me or, at least, harass me with her eyes.
"Undress, and let me see your body."
"Ooookaayy...?"
True to my expectation, the moment we arrive there, Valeria immediately launches her first harassment to me. I properly give her my weird look, saying that I don\'t want to do what she says with my eyes, but still obey what she says nonetheless.
I take off my outfit in roughly three minutes, but I keep my underwear to, at least, protect my dignity or whatever is left of it. Valeria, though she is very indirect about it, doesn\'t seem to be amused by my witty move.
"Would you wear socks if you didn\'t have feet?"
"No."
"Then, why are you wearing underwear?"
\'Fuck,\' is what I want to scream out loud, but I am wise enough to keep everything to myself. I can\'t do anything about it, so with gritted teeth, I slowly take my underwear off while keeping an eye contact with the stoic Valeria.
I don\'t have that manly pride any other men have, but I have to be honest that she has just not only humiliated me by what she tells me to do, but also the thing she says to me.
I mean, she could have just told me in a direct way, why did she have to roast me?
"What do we do now?"
"Let me inspect your growth."
I have taken off my underwear, so I am completely naked now. Contrary to my expectation however, instead of feeling down with how things have developed into, I am quite excited by the time I land my gaze on my schlong.
Maybe, it\'s because I have never paid attention to it, but I am quite surprised with how much it has grown. So, instead of being embarrassed at how small it is, I have a smirk on my face to show Valeria that her attempt to harass me is not that successful.
"I have seen bigger, so wipe that smirk off your face."
"6 inches is already above average on Earth. I am revelling in the sensation of being above most of my people, not flexing to you Miss. Valeria."
"Your face says the opposite however."
"Kuhum! Have you done your inspection?"
Instead of answering me verbally, Valeria merely nods her head silently. She then also takes her clothes off silently, and I have to take my eyes off her, so my teenager hormones don\'t cause an unwanted scene.
I instinctively look down on my schlong, and realized something quite pleasing: I realized that my schlong is already 6 inches while still being flaccid. In other words, it is much bigger when it\'s erected.
That\'s not the point however—I have just figured out a much more interesting fact about my body. The temperature around me is definitely way lower than Earth\'s, but seeing how my schlong reacts to that kind of environment, it shows that my body has already adjusted to this world\'s temperature.
In my calculation, this world\'s average temperature should be around 38° Fahrenheit everyday, which makes me technically live in winter if I compare it to America\'s average temperature in winter.
It is fascinating to think that my body has already adjusted to a new environment in a span of two days, but I guess, it\'s all because of Magic or to be exact, the Mana from the foods Valeria gives me every night.
"You look like someone who has just received an enlightenment."
As I turn my eyes to Valeria, I do my best to look at her eyes. She is too tall for the current me to not accidentally look at her breasts.
"You can say it that way. I mean, I have changed so much for the past two days, but I have only noticed those changes now due to how chaotic my lifestyle is."
Valeria snorts in, what I can say, amusement. "You haven\'t changed enough yet. Muse about it when you are already as tall as me."
"I think that will never happen to me. I am 5\'9" tall now—it is delusional to think that I will be able to grow another 8 inches in the future."
Valeria just smiles faintly, then walks to the river while motioning me to follow her with her hand. I immediately follow her, but then realized that I have to be in front of her to not suffer from an uncontrollable erection.
I can\'t walk behind her for my eyes will be planted on her butt, and I can\'t walk beside her for my eyes will look at her chest whenever she talks to me. Therefore, with my newfound speed, I dash at the river.
Splash!
"What are you doing?"
"Ha-ha. I miss this river so much, I can\'t help immediately jumping in!"
"That is very believable."
Valeria smirks faintly, and I merely give her my best fake smile. I quickly turn around so I can\'t see her body, but the Succubus descent Valeria is pretty fond of playing with me as she sits herself right in front of me in the river.
"Are you hiding something?"
"My erection."
"That is... Quite straightforward of you."
"Oh no, I shouldn\'t have said that!" I make a mock panicked look before suddenly calming down. "Anyway, are you a Succubus?"
"Are you accusing me of casting a Charm Spell on you?"
"I am not accusing you, but why else I become like this?"
I look at Valeria in genuine puzzlement, and she faintly laughs at me as if finding the whole situation funny. Shaking her head afterwards, she looks at me up and down, before speaking again.
"I believe you are aware that you didn\'t have a high sexual drive prior to coming here."
"I know it\'s caused by my sudden hormones explosion, but I don\'t exactly know why it happens now."
"That is the cause." Valeria points the Demon King\'s Mark on my hand. "That is the reason why you have an explosive growth."
"What does it actually do to me?"
"It is replacing each blood you lose with Demon blood, and that very Demon blood slowly builds your physique to prepare for your Awakening."
I blink my eyes at the unexpected explanation, and it takes me a couple of seconds to digest the information with my brilliant brain. She didn\'t explain anything about Awakening, but I am sure it is a process of me turning into Demon.
"Are you saying that the more I Reset, the quicker I get my Awakening?"
"Not really, but you can turn into a full fledged Demon quicker that way."
"Is Awakening not a process of becoming a Demon?"
"Of course, it\'s not—you are slowly turning into a Demon each time the blood is injected after all." Valeria waves her hand. "Anyway, that is not the point." She continues, "I don\'t recommend you Reset yourself as many times as you can, for I can\'t guarantee if your mind would be ready to bear the burden of becoming a Demon in a short time."
"Why will my mind not be ready?"
"Demons are naturally lustful. You will end up—"
"Ah, I get it."
I have just cut Valeria in the middle of her sentence, but luckily she doesn\'t get mad at me. I already understand what her point is: if I already experience an uncontrollable erection in my current state, I won\'t be able to hold my demonic sexual urge back.
"Huuh... Take a step at a time, huh?" I sigh lightly then shake my head faintly. "Anyway, do you have a high sexual drive too, Miss. Valeria? I mean, you have already seen many dings bigger than mine."
"Do you think only humans have genitals? I was referring to the Beasts\' I have seen."
As I take a moment of silence to digest her word, my eyes widen in bafflement the moment Valeria reveals she is still a virgin.
