[51] A New Status?

The void world.

It is the name of the place where none was supposed to exist, yet life appeared despite that. It was the realm without the gods blessing and protection, yet there life and culture blossomed.

A plain of purple grass that stretched farther than the eye can see. A murky sky filled with black clouds. A lack of movement in the wind. A soft hue of light despite the absolute desolation from sunlight. A world that was far bigger than anyone could ever imagine. Haunted with mysteries and legends.

It is said to be a world of intersections, where many paths come and go through these lands. Without the god’s constant surveillance, many problems frequently arise from seemingly nowhere, but that was simply how every day is.

As such, this was a place filled with many disturbing, yet also fun and interesting things.

If you think about it, it ain’t so different from the world above, was it?

That was what Fyorei believed at least.

Mustering energy into his sleepy body, he jolted up from his bed and raised his arms into the air, the bed sheets he was sleeping under flying off to land on a nearby chair. Blinking several times, he hopped down from the bed and dusted his clothes off.

Rushing over to the mirror, he quickly got a look on himself. Pale blue hair, bright red eyes, a good physique despite his relatively ‘young’ age. He did several different smiles to pump himself up, before he put on his red mantle and left his small cottage.

“Haa~, another good day!” He shouted to no one in particular as he waved his arms around. As a denizen of the void world, he’s gotten used to the immense darkness this world brought. It…is quite brighter than usual however. He wondered wh-

“Hmm?”

Then, he spotted someone. A girl, long black hair, blue eyes, cute face, pretty good bust, and most importantly of all, completely naked.

“He~, she’s not half-bad!”

To say he’s excited would be an understatement! In this world, being naked wasn’t that significant, since this world seems to not understand this thing called ‘shame’, and a lot of people just like to show off their bodies to the public. But, as a blossoming young man, he’s got this thing for naked young woman.

Call him a pervert or anything, he’ll still puff his chest out in pride!

By that point, the girl suddenly shivered, and promptly turned her head towards him, her eyes staring right into his. There was a quick sense of fear in her eyes, before it changed to a simple look of slight disgust and intrigue.

“Hey~! Pretty girl, wanna have some fun~?”

“Huh? U-Uh, no thanks! Bye!”

It took her a moment to realise that he was trying to ask her to ‘play’ with him for a bit, but, nope! While getting f*cked does feel pleasant, she knew from the several(many) experiences she saw in that place, let’s not indulge in that just yet, yeah?

She tried to turn back towards her path and walk away, but before she knew it, Fyorei was already in front of her, his hands stretched apart to block her path, his smile still as wide as ever.

“Oh, come on~, it’ll feel nice!”

“I know that! But not now!”

“Hmm? Do you have to go somewhere?” When those words reached her ears, she stopped and considered for a moment. Why was she so fixated on going there? Was it just to fulfil her curiosity?

No, it…she felt like something was calling her, all the way from over there.

Well, she did come here to try and return to actually ‘being alive’ and all without throwing away what makes her human, but…something of fair importance was giving her the flare of attention.

“Well, kinda. I mean, it feels like that, I guess?”

“…Woah, so you’re not up for se-“

“No. Not now.”

Was this guy so stuck up with having s*x with her or something? She just had to ask herself as she sighed. This was just wasting her time. And besides! She just got ‘played’ on earlier by that woman, so no!

But then, instead of looking discouraged, his eyes simply flared on with even more fire inside it, as if her denial had just spurred an even greater conviction inside his heart.

“Say? If you’re done with whatever you’re doing, wanna have some fun then?”

“Huh? Oh, uh……Well…Sure, why not.”

The two exchanged smiles as they introduced themselves. Once Fyorei heard her name, he asked whether she wasn’t from around here, to which she simply answered, ‘Yep! I’m from this place called ‘Earth’. You won’t find it around here, trust me.’

On their way there, they encountered some random monsters. Bug-types, floating rocks, a human mannequin for some reason, and a floating black glove that always went for their ass. In these battles, she learnt two important things.

One, Fyorie, as much of a sexually frustrated guy he is, was no push-over. He uses his fists to shoot out balls of condensed air to explode in the enemies’ faces, and when they were fighting that mannequin, which was oddly fast for something so rigid, he conjured this cool looking red whip and struck the thing down with ease.

And secondly, she learnt how absolutely underpowered she was. In all these encounters, except for the glove one, she’d always get quickly overpowered, even with her slime powers backing her up. Seeing that she was having a hard time, she was about to check on her status, but-

-[ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR]-

“H-Hue!?” What came back however, was a loud beeping sound accompanied by a line of ‘ERROR’s that ran across her eyes. She tried over and over, but all she was getting was the same failure signs and an increasing headache.

“Woah. What’s wrong girl?”

“Huh? Oh, uh, not-…I…see.”

“…?” The sudden stop earned her a strange look from Fyorei, but it matters not! That was because,

This was a world without the gods’ aid and blessing.

And because of that, this system that came to be known as the ‘status’ couldn’t be accessed in a place like this. It also explained why she didn’t seem to be getting any stronger from killing these monsters she’s run into.

What it didn’t explain however, was why her Slime Form still worked despite the lack of her status. Was it because she’s ‘technically’ a slime god now?

Whatever the case may be, at least she had something to help her survive here…Because holy f*ck was this place hard! F*cking Dark Souls-, no, ASIAN Level. If Fyorei wasn’t here, she’d be dead a thousand times over!

“Ne, Fyorei, can you use your status?”

She asked it casually, but for the first time since they’ve meant, which hasn’t been all that long, he turned to face her with a ‘somewhat’ serious face. He was still smiling all around, but his eyes were not joking around.

“Diana. You’re not from here, are you?”

‘You asked that 30 minutes ago.’

And to that very important question, she happily answered,

“Yep yep! Did you not notice?”

“You’re not scared of being turned into a s*x slave?”

“Nope~! ‘Sides, I can just kill myself, and all’ll be good!”

She laughed wholeheartedly as she placed her hands on her hips, basking in the enjoyment of seeing his grin break down into a look of awe and confusion. It’s a bit of a habit, but once you’ve seen enough, seeing things break becomes quite fun, you know?

It wasn’t long before Fyorei joined in on her laugh.

“Haa~, you’re quite a daring girl, aren’t ‘cha?”

“I’ve taken countless lightning bolts to the ass for going against the gods!”

It almost felt like she was just making it up, but seeing as there indeed is a godly aura swirling around her, albeit a very small and transparent one, it seems her claims of being associated with gods wasn’t a fluke.

Which only served to make him want her more, not just in bed, but also to see what it was that she’s been so adamant about. He grinned widely, already imagining just what chaos this one very lively individual will bring to the table.

Perhaps she would be the one to spur something interesting in his seemingly stagnant life.

“Anyways, can you use your status?”

“Oh right, you asked. Well, yes and no. The status you’re familiar with’s probably the one with all the levels and stuff, right?”

This spurred the growth of a question mark in her mind, since, well, this status thing was a creation of THE GODS, so by the way that he’s saying it, was there some new system they had?

“The one here’s slightly different. Since we’re denizens of the void, we don’t have the blessings of the common gods, which then means we don’t have ‘statuses’. But one genius guy went on to create a system to instead turn the system into a physical object and distance it from the connections of the gods. It’s somewhat like…this.”

As he finished explaining, he reached into his back pocket and pulled out a thin slate of black steel, with white words carved into it. Upon further inspection however, she could see numbers and stats, just like the status!

Name: Fyorei

Class: Whip Master Lv 175

Subclass: Aero Master Lv 108

HP: 10890/10980

MP: 9800/9800

SP: 9000/9000

[Strength]: 2097

[Tenacity]: 2245

[Agility]: 2108

[Control]: 1976

[Dexterity]: 2247

[Mentality]: 2001

{Skills}: [Whip Mastery Lv Max], [Air Control Lv 70/100], [Sexual Drive Lv Max], [Void Whip Lv Max], [Void Walk Lv Max]

Obviously, the first thing she noticed was the absurdly high numbers. Well, incredibly strong beings had even crazier numbers, from what she’s seen at least, but, damn~, seeing it from her own eyes for the first time is just…amazing.

The next thing, and more importantly, she noticed that several things had changed. Most notably, several of the original stats, like [Wisdom] and [Longevity] were missing. For the latter, it’s probably because Void People were immortal in a sense. But for the rest? Who knows.

After that, the {Magic} and {Titles} sections were missing as well!

Oh, and she just barely noticed it before she looked away, but [Intelligence] had been switched out for a new one called [Control].

“Can…Can I get one?”

“At one of the capitals, which there happens to be one just 50 miles from here.”

‘5-50!?’ Now that she knew how long 1 mile actual was, she wondered if she’ll be able to get there without fainting or losing the nerves in her legs.

…………………

Idiot.

It’s a word that Fyorei has been critically associated with, especially by all of the people he’s worked with in the past. It was not just a mere word for Fyorei, but an emblem and a trophy he proudly holds up to his chest.

And oh boy was he ever so excited to hear that someone else shares that!

“S-Seriously…? You died, went to the afterlife, became a god-in-training, then decided that you wanted to go back, got you ass spanked several times with lightning, and then threw yourself, a GOD, voluntarily into the gates? I-…I might have to up my game…”

“Ahaha~, dumb, isn’t it!?”

‘Sure is…’ He thought silently as his eyes hovered over her body-, her naked body. While it was obvious that she wasn’t a void denizen by a long shot, especially with shoddy powers like that, but he wasn’t expecting her to be a god!

And a ‘Slime God’!? What kind of eroge would that even make!?

Backtracking a bit, after around 5 miles of walking, Diana shouted out that she was bored and decided to tell her story. They had some monster attacks here and there, and since Fyorei was a bit too interested in listening, they did get hit from time to time, but it’s mostly fine.

By the end, Fyorei was laughing with no regard of attracting even more monsters from the environment.

They got along pretty well if Diana had to say so herself. His carefree nature, which lead to him becoming the s*x person he is now, and his oddly charismatic persona made them quite a convenient pair.

Soon enough, the remainder of the peaceful idle chat they had after the story ended, and with it, so did their walk through the empty plains of purple grass.

And…well, she’s…surprised?

She wasn’t expecting to get hit by a wave of nostalgia, especially with that nostalgia coming from her time on Earth, not in that fantastical world.

Rising out from the ground were hundreds of black skyscrapers, built at the side of an oddly modern earth-like street, with several street lights placed at the side at every metre or so. If she had to give an example…it looked a lot like modern Tokyo.

…Oh, she never went to Tokyo by the way. She just knew from the countless pictures she saw on Google as she cried her tears out from not being able to go there. Ah~, the pain stings so much in her kokoro that she was actually crying some tears out.

Now now! From what Fyorei’s spoiled from his little tid bits, he said that she could get a status card of her own by going to the biggest building in the city. And since there’s that enormous obelisk that was built just to stand out, pretty sure she knew where she’s going.

But, still though. She did say that the place looked oddly familiar to Tokyo, but after seeing a random ramen and curry restaurant, along with some cute looking figurines, she’s starting to question that.

On the other hand, this was great! This was an otaku’s dream of a dreamland! Well, she didn’t have any currency right now, but she’s bound to get some later, right!

She was also beginning to wonder if there’s the equivalent to Akihabara here too…

Anyways, with that out of the way, it’s time to head inside the city!

And, you know what? Fyorei’s absolutely right. Everywhere she looked, she would see many men and women, girls and boys, with absolutely no regard for their under parts being exposed to the whole void world.

Which, made it quite odd that Fyorei’s one of the few actually wearing clothes.

She asked about it, but all she got was a warm finger to the lips, and a rather awkward smile that didn’t fit in with his out-going personality. Didn’t last very long, as he soon reverted back to his usual big grin.

‘Odd…’ She thought as the two stopped before the conspicuously large skyscraper to dwarf all skyscrapers. The aesthetic was quite similar to a movie called Tron, if anyone remembers.

Heck, when they got close, the doors even slid open! Modern style!

Meanwhile, the inside was…fascinating.

When they went in, the walls around them seem to disappear, and what surrounds them was a patch of blackness, decorated with stars and galaxies. She should’ve been startled by the fact that she’s walking on an empty vacuum, but the fact that this place even knew what a ‘galaxy’ is was amazing.

From the knowledge she gathered from all the people she had the courtesy of witnessing, the knowledge in Astronomy was still very lacking.

And…well, there was some more things she wanted to talk about, but let’s focus on getting her status card first, okay?

Now, the process was…slightly…uh, frustratingly pleasurable.

To simplify, it went something like this:

When they went up to the counter and spoke to the lady sitting behind it and casually polishing her nails(who was also naked), they were brought to a ‘special room’ and the woman asked Diana to place her hand atop a small stone obelisk.

Seemed normal enough, right?

That was, until a transparent blue slime started to surge out of the obelisk and engulfed her, before it began to…’play’ with her.

Many moans, pants, and buckets of love later, she was finally dropped out of the slimy substance, left to pant heavily as she tried to recover. Having received all the information it needed, the slime went back into the obelisk and began the creation.

Like something straight out of a sci-fi movie, the thin slab of black material was created via a blue light that shined out of the top of the small obelisk. And after that, words began to carve itself upon the empty slab, and walla! Done and dusted!

“Wahaa~!” With shining eyes, she grabbed her new status plate and stared at it happily.

Name: Diana

Class: Slime God Lv 1

Subclass:

HP: 60/60

MP: 45/45

SP: 45/45

[Strength]: 21

[Tenacity]: 23

[Agility]: 22

[Control]: 20

[Dexterity]: 22

[Mentality]: 23

[S*ki%# Po&!ts]: 0

{Skills}: [Absolute Slime Transformation Lv 1]

{Slimy Compendium}

The one thing you might’ve noticed, is that there was some glitchy text there, which was her [Skill Points]. Since that’s a concept that doesn’t exist here but Diana needs it, and she’s also a newby god, it happened to be there, albeit distorted.

There’s also the {Slimy Compendium}, which was an addition only she could have. And lastly, she was so weak compared to Fyorei that it wasn’t even funny.

Now,

“Wanna have s*x now?”

“No.”

Is not the time for that.

She needed to find whatever it was that was calling her, and it was getting bigger, louder, and more obnoxious. Her godly sense was tingling, a phantom ringing of a bell was pounding her head, and this was obviously for the next chapter.

Time to go!
