Waking up I found Lucy, who was still on my lap, What have I got myself into with this woman, at some point while we were having fun I felt a connection between us like she understood me and I wanted her even more.
The good thing is now that my desires had been satisfied for now I can think with a clear mind. The first thing I should look at is the quest I got from Lusy when she told me her story.
Quest Name: Damsel in distress Help Lucy Casmore Vinhaven get her revenge, make her the new Lady of tessvol province. The reward for completion is the Shadow Lord class as well as the next part of the questline.
Ok well, I would have done this for her anyway, the reward is just a bonus on top, but why am I getting the Shadow Lord class for helping her is it because she is my woman and I'm making her the ruler and not myself. Well, that suits me just fine I don't want to play politics anyway I'll just leave all that to her and help from the shadows. Come to think of it was the quest given to me like this because that's how I wanted it or is it just a coincidence that the quest is like that.
Well no reason to look a gift horse in the mouth, I just take it as it is for now. Anyway, I have a lot of stuff to look at and a lot of decisions to make, so let's look at my stats once more and go over it with a clear head.

World traveler, Sage, Heavenly thief
Ok so I can get what most of my stats mean just from looking at it; but I should find out what skill points are and what they're used for, after that I'll look at my titles and see what they are all about, 'system what is World traveler.'
You have gone farther than most ever will. The system looks forward to where you will go next. Half off on all movement-related skills.
'Ok and what about sage.'
You have spent most of your life in the pursuit of Knowledge. The system hopes you keep it up. Half off on upgrading any skill.
Another half off nice and the last one, 'what is Heavenly thief.'
Your audacity knows no bounds for you have taken what is not yours and from a god no less. The system approves. Half of all thief skills.
So the voice I heard that time was a god, well that's pretty cool if I had to say. I asked just to check, 'hey system what is this glowing sphere thing anyway?' And nothing, well that's what I expected anyway, I'll just have to figure it out on my own.
'Ok system I already know how to get skill points and use them to upgrade but how do I buy skills with them?'
Open the skill store and you can buy skills related to your class.
'System open store.'
>>>Skill Store<<< Active Skills Passive skills Resistance Skill None None None
Fuck me, looks like I need to make Lucy lord sooner rather than later. I guess I'll just upgrade some of my skills. It cost me one skill point to level up a skill below level ten, but to level skills from nine to ten, it cost me five skill points. After that, it cost me two skill points per level up until level twenty which cost me ten skill points. Next levels after twenty cost me four skill points and to level a skill up to thirty cost me twenty.

World traveler, Sage, Heavenly thief
I now had ten ability point's from leveling up my skills and eighty-six skill points left.
There was a knock on the carriage door then a women's voice said, "my lady diner is ready for you and the gentleman with you if you're ready."
with that Lucy stirred from her sleep and said, " yes we will be right out"
She stood up grabbed my hand and pulled me to my feet, she leaned forward and placed her head on my chest. Only now when we were both standings did I realize how short she was, I was 5'10 but she only came up to my shoulder so she was probably only about 5'4 if that.
She looked me in the eyes and said, "so did you mean what you said before about helping me, or was that just a lie?"
So she was thinking I would play and run, but I wasn't about to do that to her, we may have just met but I liked her and I wanted her, so I said with a smile. "Your my woman and if you need my help you don't even need to ask, I'll do what I can to help you."
"So does that mean you're going to marry me then?"
Well, I wasn't expecting that but she was right after all, " yes I'll marry you." I reach around her and pulled her in for a kiss.
When we stopped kissing she looked at me and said. "Come on."
She pulled me by the hand out of the carriage and over to the dinner spot the rest of her followers were eating at. We walked up to hand in hand and all her people looked at us than she said without any hesitation. "I'm getting married."
They were all stunned and so was I the first to react was the old knight Charles. "What do you mean you're getting married the reason we left was so you didn't have to mary?" He looked at me and said. "It's your doing I'LL KILL YOU!!"
Suddenly Lucy shouted. "ENOUGH SIR, CHARLES, we are getting married and that's that and we are turning back home."
"But my lady even if we turn back now it won't change anything back home."
"That's where your wrong, I've decided that Caleb here will kill my father and I'll kill my stepmother and her daughter and I'll become the next Lady of the land of Tessvol province."
They were all stunned at that, then Sir, Charles, looked at Lucy and said: "I understand but your father is not weak can he kill your father my lady?"
"Yes, I'm sure he can."
"Ok I don't believe in him but if your this sure I'll believe in you. Ok everyone you heard our lady eat and get ready were heading back."
That was the most awkward meal I've ever had, after we were done we got back in the carriage and started to head to Lucy's home so I can kill my wife's father at her request, yep you heard that right.
We arrived late at night and the city guard just let us in apparently nobody likes the current city lord that much. Well, time for me to get to work and kill my father-in-law.
----------------------------------------
I sat in my study reading a book and waited for the soldiers I sent disguised as bandits to bring back my daughter. I know she's mad but she can't just run away from home it makes me look bad.
I heard footsteps coming from down the hall, that must be the team leader coming to give his report. Suddenly the sound of the footsteps disappeared as well as the sound of the wind and the crackle of the fire from the candle next to me was gone. I couldn't even hear the sound of my breathing, next a deathly chill filled the room and the candle went out.
My Danger sense skill was telling me I was in grave danger and I needed to move. leaping to my feet I spun round to look at the door and what I saw nearly made my heart stop, it was Death himself coming to get me was all I could think, is what anyone would think seeing that.
A jet black specter stood in the doorway wearing a long black cloak and a hood lit only by the moon behind him. The specter walks toward me as he came closer the chill of death in the room got colder. After it reaches the halfway point the room started to get darker as the color in the room was sucked away making everything black and white.
I couldn't tell exactly how far away it was but I at least had to try and fight back even if it was Death itself that came for me. I grabbed my sword and took a swing that fell short and hit the ground, that was the only chance I had to fight back. In the next moment, Death was upon me with the speed of a level ten aura user but I felt no aura from it. Cold hands reached around my throat and lifted me off the ground, I tried and tried to pull the hand of Death from my throat, but no matter what I did I couldn't summon up the willpower to draw out my aura and that's how I died Cold and alone embraced by only Death in my final hour.
----------------------------------------
After killing Lucy's, father I went to meet up with her, and boy when I found her she was a sight to see. Lucy, Stood over the dead bodies of her stepmother and half-sister who she beat to death with a whip. Unlike her father who I gave a quick death, she made them suffer like hell before killing them. Well like the saying goes, hell hath no fury like a woman scorn.
I walked up to her and she said, "so is my father dead"
"Yes."
"How did you kill him."
"I gave him a quick death."
"You should have made him suffer."
"Oh yes my scary Lady, now if you wouldn't mind we have a lot of stuff to take care of now."
"Sir Charales wake everyone up and tell them to meet in the main hall so we can talk about what to do from here on out."
"Yes my Lady, at once."
A Few minutes later I sat in the main hall with Lucy sitting next to me while we waited for everyone to gather. After all the people showed up Lucy started the conversation by saying. "My Father is dead, my stepmother is dead and her daughter is dead, so I'll be the next Lady of the land does anyone object to my claim if so speak up now."
The whole room was dead silent, I could only assume that Charles, told everyone what happened before they got here.
"So there are no objections, then let us move on. This man sitting next to me is Caleb lacuna, and he is my husband are there any questions if so voice them now."
A fat middle-aged man said. "Umm, when did you get married, my Lady?"
"Today."
"I see."
Lucy waited for a few more moments then said. "If there are no more questions then I shall retire for the night."
with that said we got up and left the room, after leaving the room Lucy, said. "I'll go take a bath there's another bath for you down the hall, I'll see you in bed after your done."
I went and took a bath it was quite nice after the long day I had today, after taking a bath I went back to the room to sleep but it looked like Lucy had another plan's in mind about what we were going to do tonight.
She lay there on the bed with only a towel to cover herself she looked at me and said. "I know you held yourself back earlier, now you don't need to, but be gentle it's my first time ok." and with that, she spread her legs to welcome me.
