Gifts And Kills

After a couple of hours, a few Cities away from the Academy's territory.

Whooosh, whoosh, whoooosh... Heian Ciemnosc, his Team, Elena and her Team, and 14 Sub Students were on top of the birdy tool: Taeo. Its wings spread beautifully under the sunlight, and it didn't shine, clearly made by someone with a big brain and clever. Heian Ciemnosc and Elena's team, the Crystal Fist Team, were sitting together, mixed to figure out each other's personalities. The Sub Students were at the back. They simply chose it that way. Heian Ciemnosc and Elena were at the front, where he sat behind her and hugged her from behind.

The birdy flew at an incredible speed, but it was also smooth and gave everyone on its back an extraordinary sensation with the wind caressing their fronts and sides. Heian Ciemnosc could hug anywhere up and down, from her neck to her pelvis, and there would be nothing wrong with it. Not because Elena would allow it if it was him, but because she had no female features, the table she is, her pale body couldn’t be any sexier than a slim man who barely eats.

Of course, there was her nude body, which had some defined muscle here and there. While Heian Ciemnosc hadn’t gotten sight of her bare body… he had won the last 2 weeks’ bet, and some reckoning was soon to come. For now, though, all Heian Ciemnosc did was explore this part of the Academy’s territory, which he hadn’t seen himself. It was the eastern side of the Academy, though they were still just a few portals away.

And as Heian Ciemnosc’s wrists rested on her thighs, and his hands entwined with each other in front of her groin, resting against metal. Elena suddenly spoke with a close voice and definitely not feeling flustered or minding his body, “Hey, I was thinking. I wanna go out at night. Would you like to have a date?”

"A date, hmm?” Heian Ciemnosc hugged her tighter with the crook of his elbows against her sides. Elena turned her head around and nodded, then spoke while still looking at him, her brown eyes clear and her voice assertive. “Yeah, a date. I’ve come to accept we’ve been dating for over a year by now. What about it? Are you afraid one of those Sub Students will rat us out?”

“Bah,” Heian Ciemnosc exclaimed. These Sub Students were brought in due to the Academy’s regulation for helping new and not-so-powerful students learn the basis outside the ‘safety zone’ and the club’s intentions to train and bring in more possible club members. He placed the front of his chin on her left cheek as she still had her head turned around and rubbed left and right before saying. “With how they see us, I think they would die to keep it secret.”

“Hehe,” Elena giggled, much to the soothing of Heian Ciemnosc’s heart, which he hadn’t noticed was stifled. She moved her bum a little, almost sitting on the head of the sleeping monster. She looked at him more directly and with her eyes marvelously shining with sunlight. Her face was somewhat serious but still assertive, “Then tonight. We set camp and then go out. Having ‘too many’ Sub Students can indeed be helpful, sigh. You and your dumb ideas.”

Heian Ciemnosc grinned and slightly lowered his head - just enough to look at her directly. Sensing her instincts throwing alarms off on and on, Elena looked away and back to the front at the sky as she felt a silent Heian Ciemnosc, too unspeakably mum, close to her body and his ‘manly’ chest against her ‘frail’ back. “Are we doing adult stuff now? Should I kiss your neck and see if your body would respond in agreement, hmm?”

“Huuyn,” Elena let out a soft, kittenish moan as Heian Ciemnosc continued to close into her skin with his terrifyingly seductive, charismatic, soulstealer words. However, just 2 inches away from her left shoulder’s back, she bit his brain with her sharp words. “Do it! And see if my team members pull off your dick with their hands, teeth, tools, Mortal weapons, or my little Taeo does!”

Wrun wring. Birdy Taeo stiffened momentarily to show it would destroy Heian Ciemnosc’s manhood as soon as the order was given. Its mechanical eyes no longer looked cute and silly to Heian Ciemnosc but foreign, cold, and bizarre…

“I-” Just as Heian Ciemnosc was about to defend himself, tranquilize the big boss and argue back with a tease, Elena read through his mind as easy as pie before saying with her scrunched up, angrwee face slightly looking up at him. “If that doesn’t work, see if I don’t bite your balls off!”

“...” Heian Ciemnosc was silent. He had finally been… defeated!

… During the rest of the battle- no, the flight, Heian Ciemnosc hugged Elena cautiously. His face no longer went close to her skin, limited to occasionally rubbing against her head and blonde hair. Her female layer of hair at the front of her forehead was always thrown backwards. At some point, Heian Ciemnosc couldn’t resist it anymore and peeked over her side to look at her fabulous ponytail-ish blonde hair picked backwards by the wind. And he liked what he saw.

Elena noticed his actions and intentions after her glassy eyes recuperated soberness and looked at the peeping Heian Ciemnosc shamelessly looking at her face. But for some reason, that made her feel vulnerable, and it was enough to rip Heian Ciemnosc’s skin off his face! However, it was too late, and Heian Ciemnosc had returned to sit behind her.

After that, the situation was repeated a few times before Elena just let Heian Ciemnosc sit in front of her, facing her and ignoring the eyes placed on her back with confusion and some with mouths wide open. On the other hand, after overdosing with the new sight of Elena’s sweet, adorable, and totally not angry face, Heian Ciemnosc had enough and returned to hug her from behind like a stupid and lost kid to their parents’ legs after finding them.

A couple hours later, birdy tool Taeo finally came down the skies and settled in a patch of a forest with a little hill in the middle. It was facing the northeast and hiding them from any naked eyesight from that direction. Once Taeo was stored back, and since it was still afternoon, the teams and Sub Students got to work.

There were 14 Sub Students. 10 Students from Elena’s Crystal Fist Team counting her, and 8 from Heian Ciemnosc’s Concealed Ornament Team. In total, 32 students worked together to make just a few tents for resting, storing immediate-to-use materials, tools, and mechanisms with defensive systems. As well as a principal tent where they would have a meeting, if necessary, and visualize the surroundings, also if required.

Heian Ciemnosc’s team wouldn’t shy away from some workload, much less let some Sub Students do everything just because they were Sub Students. Elena’s team was similar. They didn’t seem used to being lazy and pitched their own tents as the cold of the coming evening rested on their shoulders. Meanwhile, the Sub Students knew what to do and didn’t complain once, as Elena and Heian Ciemnosc only had to tell them once what to do.

When the dark sky fell upon them, and after a short hunting and dining after. Heian Ciemnosc finally started walking outside the little camp while hearing Esteban ask Violet. Already in front of the former’s tent. “Miss Violet, may I invite you into my tent to play cards and some fine table games?”

“Oh, Estebean. Mmn, sure, then. Let’s go!”

While Esteban was a gentleman and handsome, not as mighty-handsome as Heian Ciemnosc. Not even close, though. Violet was like a proper lady pondering about the situation before politely agreeing. Esteban’s high bow with his left hand opening his tent’s entrance helped Violet enter, who did so in good manners and a good mood.

‘These two…’ Heian Ciemnosc shook his head when seeing this scene with his Spirit Sense. He remembered their previous interactions and the way Esteban looked at her. ‘One capable young man and a noteworthy, wife-material young woman. Yep.’

Leaving the camp with his team knowing and Elena’s team aware she had left, Heian Ciemnosc walked for 30 minutes before finally finding a ravine in the woods. This forest was around 4 million square kilometers, a fairly decent but still nowhere as large as a Middle Kingdom can get in terms of luscious forests of all kinds. The ravine was much smaller, just about 3,000 meters deep, but several scenic cliffs here and there gave sight to the rest of the woods on the other side.

… Step, step, rustle- tap.

Arriving at where she was standing and waiting, Heian Ciemnosc sensed he heard him, and her Spirit Sense also checked towards his direction. When he was found, she began moving things around and tapping her feet left and right while accommodating her clothes and moving the flora a bit. When Heian Ciemnosc finally came into her naked eyesight after pushing some leaves a few meters wide and several meters long, he saw her waiting for him, with her back facing him.

With her hands behind her back, her right hand holding onto her left wrist, she looked up at a moon in the sky with some twinkling stars painted far away. Heian Ciemnosc felt gratified at the sight of her lonely back before coming close to her and standing to her left. Moments of silence ensued. Heian Ciemnosc saw each star and the moon at least 10 times before she suddenly spoke softly and in a hush.

“Did you just lose the chance to hug me from behind?”

“I have to keep my precious intact. How am I going to be dirty, filthy, and playful whenever I have intercourse from then on, hm?” Heian Ciemnosc lifted his eyebrows, side glancing to his right. Elena slowly turned her head left as if not believing this shameless fellow teenager, even 2 years younger than her, saying with her usual tomboyish voice without changing her pose. “You still have some time before I feel sleepy…”

Whoosh, rustle.

Hearing Elena’s assertive voice made Heian Ciemnosc’s milf-hunting senses go off. As she reminded him of Alyona or the cute but playful Hong Mei, he didn’t even want to think as he dashed towards her and quietly placed his arms around her waist. With their growing stature, he was in a perfect position behind her. And as their bodies connected, she was greeted by the soft tree of life.

“So, it is true,” Elena said as if discovering a hidden treasure after an odyssey. Heian Ciemnosc felt awkward with her firm, small buttcheeks gently accommodating his groin. He could tell she was doing everything to muster her strength to not stiff or squirm in equal embarrassment and awkwardness. Silence ensued again, but this time with their noses quietly sniffling each other’s scent.

“I have a few little things in my Covert Space bag. I made them and asked Master to get them for me so that I can give them to you in exchange for giving me so many helpful things. I hope you like them. A strange young girl came the other day. She showed up in Master’s gym and told me of so many things only crazy people about Craftsmaking wanted and liked. I used up several thousand merit points, but ‘it’ is worth it. And also, take it as an investment from me, alright?”

“...” Heian Ciemnosc was already headaching hard and became speechless. He didn’t say anything or inquire about who that seemingly sneaky young girl was. But being the dumbfucks they are, Heian Ciemnosc said with a praising tone. “I’m sure they will be. Wow! It just so happens I’m a crazy allrounder Craftsperson. What a coincidence.”

“Mhm, you can say that again. I’ll be waiting for new, top quality alchemy products and future Earth grade Colorful Claws, Mortal Horror Blood, and help my Little Rain grow stronger, too!” Elen said, leaving no space for rebuttals. Heian Ciemnosc nodded repeatedly, massaging the back of her head, making her shiver every time he ‘accidentally’ massaged her nape.

“Oh, right. What about Taeo?” Heian Ciemnosc asked. Elena became shy and silly before saying, “Well, Master doesn’t even let me try something with it, much less someone who isn’t even their disciple, haha…”

There was a slightly uncomfortable silence, but it was then gone with their bodies connected. Sometimes swaying, other times back and forth as if lightly dancing with their bodies up close. Some other times, Elena placed her palms on his hands’ backs, lightly caressing them, seemingly adoring his cool, fresh, pale skin and its smoothest sensations.

“... Elena,” Heian Ciemnosc lightly called out to her. She voiced a ‘mmn?’ - drowsily opened her eyes and nudged her head backwards, rubbing it with Heian Ciemnosc’s face. Then he said, “I found the boyfriend you asked me for before.”

“Oh…” Elena’s senses abruptly woke up. She felt her ears colder and her face as if becoming ice. After a little while, she added with a saddened tone, “Okay.”

Step, rustle, step, step. Heian Ciemnosc felt her body go rough, separate from his font, as she took a couple steps forward, turned around, and walked behind him. Her right hand grasped his right wrist, and brought him to a spot behind the cliff. Their footsteps moved the grass on the ground and many dried-up leaves, crushing or slightly pushing them away.

“Sit,” arriving at a place where leaves and the grass on the ground were combed to form an ever-so-soft and softest natural bedding. Heian Ciemnosc looked at it before looking at her as they walked towards it, his mind funny as he tilted his head to the right without her knowledge. When they arrived there, she said and directly pulled his arm down from grabbing his wrist, forcing him to sit with her on the light, obscured green bed that seemed perfect… to spend a wonderful time in.

Heian Ciemnosc sat and was pensive for a while. When a few minutes like this went by, Elena spoke again, this time with a slightly saddened tone. “Will you only cuddle me if I ask you? What are you waiting for?”

Looking behind, Heian Ciemnosc saw Elena ready to be spooned. He went towards her and lay behind her. In the same way as before, their bodies were against each other and of a perfect fit. With his right arm holding her hip and his left arm between his lower stomach and the middle of her back, they stood like that for some time.

“It’s a good night, and since you’ve got someone in mind for me, how about you take it now?”

Elena suddenly said as she twisted her neck to face their lower bodies. Her right hand grasped her inner right-sided bottom cheek, and her hips raised her bum upwards. Heian Ciemnosc could see where her flowered womanhood even with her pants in the way. She wore nothing but her pants right now, and were it not for her uniform’s anti-Spirit Sense, her bare body would be his eyes to violate!

“Not now,” but that was what Heian Ciemnosc spouted as he closed his body more onto her. His face arrived incredibly close to her right cheek, and so did his already near crotch to her bum. He lowered her hips to the ground. Her hips couldn’t be any weaker to resist him, and even as she struggled and looked back at his darkest eyes with heavily trembling brown eyes, she was helpless.

Once she acquiesced and his close-up face paralyzed her previously, heavily trembling eyes, he latched his groin onto her derriere. Immediately, Elena turned her head around and yelped a ‘yiii!’ before covering her mouth in deadly embarrassment. Then she said after a couple minutes, and as Heian Ciemnosc’s right arn hugged her full ultra low stomach, “It’s not ‘small’ anymore…”

“Mn, I know. Good that you felt that too,” Heian Ciemnosc said, recomposing the atmosphere and feeling her body getting hotter, but she at least no longer thought of ‘getting that over with’ and being done. Elena kept silent for slightly more time, but her breathing was still heavy as she asked, “Why not? You said you’d find me someone. Okay, now that you did, just help me experience something before going to another man’s side, no?!”

“Oh, I don’t want to,” Heian Ciemnosc grinned and calmly said. His left arm slowly snaked its way below her body’s left side and below her ribs. Elena’s face reddened in anger before barking, “Then I don’t want to, too!”

“... Until you tell me to…”

Despite the silence her ‘declaration’ left, Elena ended up muttering to him softly and whispering with her face away. But Heian Ciemnosc could see her female front layer of hair covering her brown, watery eyes looking soulless at the ground.

“Myuuih…” When Elena least expected it, Heian Ciemnosc’s left arm suddenly lunged at her breasts. As it passed by her solar plexus, it coiled around her sternum, and his left hand ended up at her right shoulder. Both his arms then hugged her tighter, pressing her harder against his body and his face against her right ear. His eyes closed, and hers, which were tightly shut, slowly relaxed and remained closed. She heard his exclamation one last time, “Oh.”

… After a long, when Elena had already fallen asleep. Her body became used to the hardened phallus between her little bum’s cheeks. Heian Ciemnosc could not hold it anymore, and he lifted her body, turned it around, and pulled it tight-close towards him. Elena rapidly woke up, not because of his light touch on her body. She was too vulnerable to him as she didn’t wake up when his hands grabbed her tummy and waist and lifted her from the ground while still lying on it.

“...” - “...” Elena woke up when she was already falling back to the ground with the right side of her face falling on his left arm’s smooth, pale skin. She was just an inch away from stupidly face-slamming each other. They looked into the other’s eyes and didn’t care about anything that happened a second before, for each passing moment. And then, slowly, they fell asleep.

Their noses breathed onto each other’s faces, lightly and negligibly but still clear and present. The night as the witness, tomorrow would be just the continuation of their mission.

… When Heian Ciemnosc and Elena returned to the encampment, they were still resting or meditating. Heian Ciemnosc saw, in Esteban’s tent, a pair of clothed bodies seated around a shin-level table with some cards and a few mini-figurines thrown on the ground. Esteban had his upper back against the side of his tent, with Violet resting her right shoulder, hands, and head on his chest, deeply and comfortably asleep on a warm body.

When he told Elena about it, she smiled in a gossipy demeanor and started teasing the hell out of the fools’ team leader. Meanwhile, she ignored and tried not to blush as Heian Ciemnosc hugged over her shoulders and didn’t let her body walk away from his under some of her team members’ eyes. It was a cruel payback she was willing to go through.
