Chapter 128: Sacred Spring within her grasp!
Tetsuya invited Anna to the guild.
Before that, she had to become a player, though. As a woman from Earth, the games weren't foreign to her. She, however, was surprised to see how much influence the game could leave on her.
"If I get knowledge about devil runes, I should help you deal with the seal. I don't know how much time we have, though," Tetsuya inquired.
To his bad luck, Anna couldn't predict the demon's movements. They were probably in every other underground race as of now, "The one I have been dealing with has rune to enslave. As for others, I can't even tell. But there should be more demons."
Tetsuya nodded and decided to not waste any more time. He invited Anna for another MOBA Game and both of them clashed with each other yet again.
In the meantime, The Devil Queen's people began to spread Tetsuya's pills throughout the whole race. The devil merchants were delighted to serve the queen and they sold the pills cheaper.
All noble houses also got hold of those pills and the whole devastating net began to spread its branches throughout the underground.
A few weeks later, Tetsuya and Anna were ready for more serious moves, "I should be able to take down this seal..." Not only Tetsuya had a demon bloodline, he also had some time with Reyas whose runes enslaved some bastards.
Adding Anna's devil rune that exposed more secrets and weak points of the devil race, Tetsuya believed he could take down the seal.
But he couldn't just go straight to it. It would expose Anna's ally and the other demon could call out his buddies to the devil race. The problem was that he was also impersonating the devil lord, so things had to be taken slowly.
Tetsuya decided to return to the fairies and gather the army under the queen's order. If she were to know what Tetsuya achieved, then she would surely follow him with all other fairies. Of course, he was also curious how others were doing.
-
"Prince Charming! We were so worried!" The first one to reach out to Tetsuya was surprisingly the fairy advisor, Mayu. She hugged Tetsuya as if she was his beloved and nestled herself within his embrace.
Her fairy wings flapped with contentment and all other fairies sent their jealous glances at the prince charming and the fairy advisor.
A few moments later, their gazes turned amusing as Milady Yuhi stepped in. Her appearance threw Mayu away and the fairy advisor's place had been taken away!
"Tetsuya... We have to talk," While her cuddling conveyed how she had missed him, Milady Yuhi's words raised Tetsuya's alarms. He took her to their room after waving at all fairies who gasped after his eyes landed on them.
In his room, Tetsuya said, "The forest looks better, but I can still smell out devils," He had a devil rune within his game system now, so Tetsuya became more sensitive than ever. He could smell out devils and use them to his advantage!
It was weird that the lord devil hadn't pressed much on them after the queen's escape, but if it was a demon controlling things from the side, then it was understandable. The Devil Queen's parades also should've done some problems to its order.
Milady Yuhi nodded, "The fairies are making a comeback; step by step and carefully. However, the fairy queen has been confined within her room for too long. And I, as the user of a rune related to water, could feel something weird out of her chamber."
"Weird?" Tetsuya asked.
What Milady Yuhi told him brought some worry to Tetsuya's heart. The fairy queen didn't leave her chamber once and completely shut the tree she was confined in. Even the fairy advisor couldn't come close to it, but it was also Mayu not daring to disobey her queen's words.
But Milady Yuhi felt like the fairy queen had lost herself in the new power and she had been doing her best to not let even a drop of it leave her chamber!
Tetsuya had no reason to not believe in Milady Yuhi, so both of them sneaked out of their room and went to the fairy queen's tree secretly. Standing on the branch, Tetsuya touched the bark while closing his eyes.
Recently, he had made great progress with Milady Yuhi's runes, so he understood everything she had spoken about. There were unbridled waves going on within the chamber and he could feel it just fine.
"I must try to reach her somehow... Also, take this Yuhi," Tetsuya sent an invitation to the guild, then actually did the same to the fairy queen who had been lost in her worries and dismay.
The appearance of something new startled her, but it was Tetsuya's doing, so the fairy queen's heart fluttered with sudden happiness and hope. She accepted the guild invitation, then became a player that relied on the game master.
Seeing her condition and stats, Tetsuya's heart grew colder. He couldn't let her die like that, so Tetsuya's mind spun with various ideas. In the end, the best one he could think of was using the vampire runes to become the shadow and somehow slip through the tree. His body turned into shadow, but the second part of this plan was the hardest.
Tetsuya whirled around the whole tree while looking out for any clues; to no avail! He just couldn't find even one gap within that tree that would lead him to the fairy queen.
Suddenly, his game rune system shook.
[The Guild Master power has been connected to the Vampire Rune.]
[You can teleport to your guild members!]
[Do you want to teleport to the fairy queen, Maya?]
Tetsuya instantly slapped the game message, then the shadows swarmed around his body! He then got taken to the queen's chamber and appeared amidst the ocean! At least that was how it looked for Tetsuya's eyes.
The only dry place was around the queen and Tetsuya actually had to hug her so that he could breathe.
Other than that, the whole chamber had been swallowed by the raging whirlpools and tsunamis going around and clashing with each other. The whole chamber was already a mess, but Tetsuya knew that this was a scared spring's water!
If she could control it and throw it at devils or even demons, then the consequences would be severe for both evil races. Tetsuya couldn't really imagine what it would be like, but it surely would bring them closer to victory!
"Tetsuya... I think I have failed," Maya felt safe within his hug and she let out all her pain without wasting even a second. She told him that the fairies had to progress and the progress naturally should start with the queen.
Her goal was to learn the powerful technique left within her bloodline. At first, Maya was full of expectations, but the more she learned, the deeper her predicament buried her. She couldn't leave it and had to desperately control as much as she could.
Otherwise, all other fairies would get swept by the raging sacred spring!
"What those devils did to you... Don't be that impatient," Tetsuya stroked her hair, then extended his hand. As they were in such close position and relied on each other, Tetsuya's powers easily blended with the fairy queen.
She then whispered, "It's because of you. You have such unique power I didn't want to lag behind."
Tetsuya spoke as if he couldn't see through that and flashed a smile at her. His powers began to stop the tsunami and slow down the whirlpools, but it wasn't enough yet! They needed a deeper connection and to match their runes in harmony!
Thus, Tetsuya raised the fairy queen's chin, looked into her eyes, then licked her lips before sliding his tongue in. As she didn't even object to it at all, the queen played along and licked him back as she wrestled with him.
Their kiss deepened the connection and the whole waves calmed down in less than six hours. However, it meant that the duo kissed and cuddled for the same amount of time! The fairy queen was at least overwhelmed by it and barely could keep her eyes on Tetsuya.
As scarlet hue crept onto her cheeks, Tetsuya brought her closer and supported her with his body. Although he was exhausted, Tetsuya could keep his upper body straight and the fairy queen lay on him just well.
She felt comfortable and as his smell became sharper due to the sweat, Maya began to fall for more than just Tetsuya's abilities and looks.
"Thank you," Maya thanked, raised her hand then let out a silver token float out of her palm. It hovered around her palm and reeked off with the powerful might! It was sacred spring's technique wrapped in the technique.
Tetsuya smiled, "Congratulations. We will use it soon, very soon," He then kissed her forehead and closed his eyes. The game master was exhausted nonetheless! He went to sleep, then after another six hours, Tetsuya woke up on the fairy queen's lap.
