~~~(POV: Saliandra Orvello)~~~
~~~(Location: The Gleem Library, The Underground City Of Maero, Desert, The Continent Of Alforza)~~~
~~~(Time: 12:32 AM)~~~
My eyes are locked on the breathtakingly beautiful white-gold halo above Cera\'s head. Ever since he got to the Inn, I haven\'t been able to take my eyes off it. I want to reach out and touch it, so much so that I\'m ignoring what he\'s talking about.
"Are you even listening to me, or do you just want to stare at my new addition until the dead start walking around?"
His question barely registers, and I have to shake the lock his halo has on me. His eyes bore into mine as I meet his gaze, and I see amusement in him.
"Sorry... It\'s just so... Unbelievably pleasant to look at... I don\'t know what it is, but I just want to stare at it all day. Is there some sort of effect it\'s having on me or something? Cause it feels like I\'m being affected by it."
A chuckle leaves Cera as he leans back on the bed. The halo is perfectly floating above his head. It\'s the signal to everyone who looks at him that he\'s a Divine being.
I\'m worried that this will cause problems when we go to a public area or something. I\'m not entirely sure people will give him space if we were to go to a public location. A soft breath leaves his lips as he relaxes and closes his eyes.
"When we get up tomorrow, there are some things I want to show that\'s really cool. I gained an awesome new Skill thanks to this halo. My halo."
He hasn\'t answered my question if it\'s having an effect on me. But he\'s probably really tired and could use some sleep. I know I could use some. So, I snuggle up next to him and wrap my body around him. He\'s always so warm and cozy.
The gentle rising and falling of his chest is putting me at ease, and I wouldn\'t be surprised if he\'s asleep already. I tuned him out when he was talking about the Dungeon. I couldn\'t help it.
I\'ll have to ask for another recap tomorrow, in the meantime. I\'ll just let him sleep. Right now, I need to focus on what Taaro talked to me about. While Cera was in the Dungeon, she came and talked to me. Said something important needed to be discussed.
After settling in for a long talk, she explained the Des\'merta are planning a large-scale attack against The Regaliance Kingdom, and they want our help in doing so.
I\'ll have to convince Cera. Knowing him, he might be interested. He\'s not a fan of slavery, just like me. And The Regaliance Kingdom are slavers. But he\'s still searching for answers regarding Radueriel. It\'s hard to say if he\'s not consumed by that goal.
It\'s funny how we said we\'ll be coming to this faraway land to get away from quests, goals, and other such things. But we end up doing them anyway. Who knew that crossing The Sea of Resalmoder would lead to all this.
I\'m betting Hailey and Marcus are having a ton of fun with their activities in Jaerey. I\'ve been talking to Hailey almost every day since I\'ve forgiven her.
"Hey..."
Cera\'s sudden voice pulls me from my thoughts. I figured he was asleep, but I guess not. Cause he\'s awake.
"Yeah..."
Now he knows I\'m awake too.
"I want you to know that no matter what happens, I\'ll always protect you. I have a feeling that now I\'ve got this halo, everything will start to change. More danger and threats. If that\'s the case, just know that I\'ll be there, always."
I lift my head and see he\'s still got his eyes closed. Good chance for a surprise. I quickly crawl up his body and lock my lips with his.
We both sink into the familiar and addictive pleasure. It\'s not like people are around, and we have to hold off. Besides, I\'m always in the mood for some loving. He knows my body better than I do. His hand soon finds its way up my back.
And I\'m getting more in the mood as the seconds pass. We pull apart as a soft wet smack is heard at the parting of our lips.
"How about we take off these clothes, and get down to what we both really want."
What I say is incredibly forward in my mind, but since I\'m with Cera, I know I can say anything. A smile graces his lips, and we soon find ourselves without our clothes on. This time, I\'m on top. And I\'m going to be taking my man for a ride.
As I\'m about to start, I get a random idea. I throw my hands forward and grab onto his halo. Using it as a point of leverage for my body.
But the longer my hands are on it, the more extreme pleasure I feel. His halo is gradually getting brighter the longer I hold on to it. He\'s not even inside me; I\'m about to explode from whatever this halo is doing to me.
~~~(POV: Marcus Adamo)~~~
~~~(Location: The City Of Jaerey, The Kingdom Of Laasir, The Islands Of Haestar)~~~
~~~(Time: 11:23 AM)~~~
"I\'m so glad that you decided on me as your partner."
This woman is such the talkative one.
"I want you to know that I\'m a massive fan of you and your sister. And I won\'t let you down. You can count on me as a reliable partner."
Very, VERY, talkative.
Said woman is named Kelly Michells. And she\'s someone that fits the requirements I have in terms of a partner. She\'s a Magic castor, Solo Player, and powerful enough to not rely on me. One downside is how much she talks.
I don\'t know how or why I thought I could get a partner for the 2v2 portion of the tryouts that was perfect, but I\'ll have to settle with who I\'ve got.
Hailey and Rianna won\'t be fighting their opponents for at least another 45 minutes. Possibly hour.
"Listen, Kelly. I\'ll be flat-out honest with you. Talking as much as you do is probably why you\'re a Solo Player. People don\'t want to hang around a person that clucks as much as a chicken. I\'ve got my flaws too, but my God, woman. You\'re driving me nuts."
Instead of being insulted by my orders and brutally direct approach, she just sheepishly smiles and rubs the back of her head.
"Yeah, I do have the tendency to drone on. Sorry about that. Mom said that I get it from her, and dad said that he\'d..."
She continues talking, and I do my best to tune her out. Goes to show that there really is no stopping someone like that from talking.
Kelly Michells is the partner that will kill you by talking too much. Maybe, on a chance of luck, our opponents with a forfeit to get away from her talking.
Wouldn\'t that be nice.
~~~(POV: Hailey Adamo)~~~
~~~(Location: The City Of Jaerey, The Kingdom Of Laasir, The Islands Of Haestar)~~~
~~~(Time: 12:48 PM)~~~
It\'s almost 1:00 PM, and it\'s not looking like Rianna, and I are fighting any time soon. There is still plenty of matches left in the day. But I\'m not sure if these 2v2 matches will go by as fast as the 1v1s. The ones we have watched have lasted, on average, about 8 minutes.
You\'re given 10 minutes to defeat your opponents. This part of the tryouts is what will take the longest.
"And that\'s when my sister decided to flush all my favorite celebrity cards down the toilet."
Marcus appears next to me, and a woman a few inches taller than him is next to him. Talking his ear off. It looks like it\'s driving him insane. Said woman is someone I recognize from an earlier match. She was very good.
She\'s a Mage like Marcus.
When our eyes meet, I see hers light up like a Christmas tree...
