Chapter 64: Chapter 64-The Calm Before The Storm(?)

Within a certain forest the wind blew and the roars of monsters could be heard, 5 certain within the forest was calm as a suffocating aura surrounded those places, 5 overlords ruled over this area as it's king's

The forest was huge with lands that seemed to have no end, there were large areas covered with monsters, the weak had no place here, now in a certain area of the forest 2 humans could be seen

Within the large forest they seemed minuscule and unimportant, one of the 2 humans was a beautiful women who seemed to be at her 20s, she seemed hurt and pale, while the other was a young handsome man

The young man too looked a bit ragged and tired, yup it's Austin and Eleanor alright, it's been 2 days since they been stuck in this world , they been on the constant run and fighting for the past 2 days, well it was mostly Austin protecting Eleanor

'Damn it, should I call a dragon over to escape?'

Right now I was thinking if I should just risk it all and just summon a dragon to save me, no matter what the last 2 days haven't been easy, sure there was a huge improvement in my seduction of Eleanor but it's still hard to go on anymore

As for fighting the 5 overlords?, that never even crossed my mind, I am not crazy enough to serve my head in a silver platter to those monsters

'I will just wait for 2 more days'

Coming to my decision I focused back on to the task at hand currently I was just turning the soup I was cooking, during the past years my cooking improved a bit due to always being outside for hunts

Checking the temperature I made sure that the food was just at the right temperature before taking the soup to Eleanor who was laying back against a tree, I had already set up barriers to prevent monsters form entering so we were able to eat with a light heart

Walking I moved towards Eleanor who seemed to look at me with complicated eyes, her feeling right now were already set, smiling I sat close to her

"Foods ready teacher, how are you feeling currently?"

"I am much better now, the paralysis should be removed within 2 days"

"That's good then"

Sighing in 'happiness' I took the spoon and scooped the soup and brought it near Eleanor's face, normally she wouldn't allow such a thing but during the last 2 days, I seemed to have overcome a barrier

"The tempura tears perfect"

Saying so I pushed the spoon forward, Eleanor opened her mouth and took the food, like this I scooped the soup blew it to make sure that the temperature's just right before feeding her, each of my actions were very gentle

After feeding her I made sure to clean her mouth with a towel, during these 2 days I had always looked after her with at most care, even when countless monsters attacked I made sure to always protect her and hence we grew more closer

After having our meal I made sure to cover her up with blankets, it was already night and the chilly winds were not something the current Eleanor could handle, without any hesitation I placed her in front of me scooping her into a hug

She laid her back on my chest and and her head was placed on my shoulders, I placed my hands around her slim waist hugging her tightly, our bodies were glued together, the heat between our bodies intensified and I could feel Eleanor's heart beat quicken

When I had first done this she opposed it vehemently but in the end she was powerless and could not do anything, I made up the excuse so that she would not be cold but both me and Eleanor knew it was bullshit, where did fireballs and magic go?

But in the end Eleanor could only accept it without bring able to do something about it, at first she was always uncomfortable but as time passed she got used to it and started to enjoy it even, the warmth Austin's body bought her somehow calmed her down

Sitting with a beauty in my arms it was a lie if I said that I wasn't tempted but sometimes just sitting like this with Eleanor in my arms and looking at the sky is not bad

"The sky here's beautiful isn't it?"

I was the first one to speak

"Um, it's not bad, but you should have a look at the sky from the magic tower, it's amazing"

"Oh?, then i surely have to ask aunt to show it to me once"

Silence then regained for a bit before Eleanor spoke

"Austin let's face reality, my bodies paralyzed and even if i do get better in 2 days it's no guaranty that we would be able to escape, so when I gi-"

"Impossible I won't leave you here"

As I said that my hold on her waist tightened, Eleanor felt it too, she could do nothing but sigh and close her eyes

"Then what do you suggest?"

"You don't have to worry about it master, I do have a few ways to escape if thing got worse"

Seeing my serious expression Eleanor could only put trust in her disciple but at the same time she was making plans of her own too

"Plus, I don't think it's bad to spend our time here maybe we could start a family here too"

"You!"

Hearing Austin's words Eleanor could not help but be expatriated, though she didn't say it, the idea he just said now did make her fantasies but she quickly shook her head away

Seeing that I could not help but smile, in many ways the trip here was very eventful, my original goal was just to try my luck with Eleanor but the trials we faced ended up making us closer, it would have been impossible for such a situation to arise if it wasn't for Eleanor being weak

The situation of completely placing her life on others hand was new to Eleanor plus luck along with her twisted view of love did play a major role in breaking through the barriers of her heart

'Then shouldn't I thank that demon for his help?'

If the demon knew that the situation he created by almost sacrificing his inheritance was advantages to Austin, no one would find it weird if he went crazy from anger


Chapter 65: Chapter 65- The Shrimp Between The Whales

Just like that we sat there looking at the stars, what consoled ourselves during this loneliness being each other

'Hey system how long will this world last?'

[Host the world would only last for about 2 more days]

'Only 2 more days, why?'

[Host must have noticed it by now, this world is not just a creation, it's infinitely close to reality, hence the amount of mana required is staggering, if the demon continues this any longer, then he may lose his inheritance]

Hearing the systems words I relaxed, it seems that I would finally be able to leave this place in 2 days but at the time a small anxiety built up within me, knowing that demon he won't let me off that easy

And I was right too, soon the world started to tremble huge pressure started to appear within the forest, the monsters seemed to act as if doomsday appeared

"what's going on?"

At the same time I heard Eleanor's voice, it was filled with caution, I quickly broke the barrier and hid both of our mana's, running to a small cave I hid both of us in the cave

'System what's going on?'

[Host, when whale's fight the shrimp gets injured]

'The hell?, what does that mean?'

As soon as I did ask this question, 5 distinct monster screams could be heard, even for me when I heard the scream I felt my body tremble, and my head ache, quickly i protected Eleanor with mana

"This i-is!'

I could see that Eleanor was surprised and I could guess why

'Are the 5 overlords going to fight each other?'

[Yes]

A simple answer but hearing it my heart felt constricted, looks like the demon wants to take us out like this, we are lucky that the bastards dead, well this could be said to be the law of nature

The law was simple the dead could not harm the living, it was a simple rule made by the creation goddess, the demon from before and the ones in the historic worlds are just a fragment of their original consciousness

They were left behind to rule the historic world and they had the restiction of not being able to directly kill the people who took their test, otherwise the demon could have killed us directly, why go threw such hassle?

But everything has a loophole, if you can't kill them directly then kill them with your test, you could always use the excuse of 'hey it's his fault for being weak and untalented to pass my test'

Coming back to the topic at hand if these overlord do go into battle then the residual power would be more than enough to wipe the current us from existence

'Sigh, looks like it's come to that at the end'

Jus as I was as I was about to take the badge out to call a dragon over, an idea came to my mind, smiling I opened the shop function and brought some items, after that I lay Eleanor on the floor

"Austin?"

Eleanor looked at me with doubt, she knew that the situation was bad and she was about forcefully burn through her life-force when she felt Austin placing her on the ground, I looked at Eleanor seriously

"Teacher just wait here I will be back soon"

"Where are you going?"

"Don't worry nothing would happen to me I have a plan"

"No don't go stay here with me. I have a plan to escape. you just have to stick with me"

"Please forgive me teacher"

Before Eleanor could respond I hit her in the neck and made her unconscious, it didn't need a genius to know what she was goung to do and I can't risk it, making sure that she was placed right

I placed severeal restriction, barriers and protection before i started running towards the position of the 5 overlords gathering, as i ran I came upon several monsters that were running away

The more closer i got the more a certain pressure began to fall upon me but the pressure went as it came, at the same time 5 of the overlords gathered to finally decide the one and only ruler of the forest

On one side stood a snake of great size, it's green skin and slit like eyes shinned in the light, on another side stood an overgrown ape, it had brown hair and its biceps moved with rhythm

Standing beside the ape was a white tiger, lightning seemed to sweep from it and beside the snake stood a huge bear it's tank like body displaying its might and finally we had a huge eagle floating in the sky

"Then lets begin"

It was just after the eagle like beast had spoken and the atmosphere was heating up that, the tiger displayed a confused expression and looked towards a certain direction, following it others too looked that way

Noticing the anomaly all the 5 beasts were surprised and at the same place they were looking from Austin appeared
