This time the massage was better. Kyon sat back with a satisfied sign, feeling blissfully happy, giving his student a condescending smile. Juno's charming face turned red while her delicate fingers were ineptly trying to give pleasure to his feet. Fate favored him, after all... Yegorka would sell his soul to be in his place now.
Juno tried to hide her disgust at the "master's" smelly feet. She would do anything to get the desired key cleaning, even if it meant massaging the jerk's feet all day long.
{Gods, how did I get here? Please, stop staring at me...}
Kyon leaned back on the pillow, purring blissfully under his breath like a contented cat. The unfortunate killers had left him a small fortune in their rings: money, a couple of pills with enzymes, and an emerald name token of the 3d rank that Kyon was going to use at the party. Anyway, it was too soon to rejoice.
The party where he was going to prove himself would take place in two weeks, and he hadn't come up with his own technique of movements yet! Besides, he had yet to master the advanced grade of all the elements and create a unique body that would meet his high expectations.
Kyon decided to work on the unique body first or figure out which direction to move. It was time to analyze the information he had found in the ancient heritage and stored in his mind.
Synergy transformed this information into a mental image.
Kyon had thirty-three nephrites, each containing facts about unique bodies.
The foundation is the base for future cultivation. It was Kyon's chance to change his life for the better, thanks to the ancient heritage. When the full realization hit him, Kyon was thrilled to pieces.
The language had undergone some insignificant changes, but he could understand things at the intuitive level. The difference with the modern dialect was minimal. Ancient beings seemed to be humans.
Each nephrite contained the following information: the unique body name; its properties and disadvantages; installation requirements; cultivation requirements; ingredients, nuances, methods, and ways of creating the body; additional information on the key ingredients.
The instruction manual for the unique body pill helped understand and interpret the data correctly. All the information was complete with a comprehensive description.
Kyon began to study manuals for each body: "The day and night," "The sun messenger," "The artist of the fate," "The belligerent amazon," "The whale god," "The completed puzzle," "The wisdom extract," and so on.
Kyon carefully studied all their properties and cultivation methods as well as ways of their creation.
He frowned. {Are you kidding me? All these bodies are the "A" rank max with good but weak features. It would be near to impossible to suppress anyone a stage above. What the hell?}
Kyon went through all the information once again, visibly disappointed, setting aside the bodies that piqued his interest.
The Archangel body gave significant physical strength, improved the light attribute, and granted unique features that could be obtained in three ways: ascending to higher cultivation phases; increasing the body grade; or due to the talent and unique personality traits.
Unfortunately, it required the light attribute, a high level of purity of the key of light, the morality of light creatures, as well as a kind and sensible soul. Otherwise, the body would reject its owner.
The Archdevil body granted significant physical enhancement, improved the attribute of darkness, and gave unique features. Its main requirement was to be corrupt. Well, that's interesting...
The Divine Flower of Growth increased the speed of soul evolution, revealing its owner's beauty like a blossoming bud of a delicate rose. Being a virgin with a 12-year-old soul was a sole requirement for its activation. It would make any girl even more beautiful, and if she had any talent, it would grant her certain unique features.
Kyon was surprised at the fact that the soul age decided anything. In fact, he was puzzled by the very fact of its existence.
It was mentioned among the body's weak points that as soon as the owner lost her virginity, her cultivation level would go to her sexual partner.
These lines rolled like thunder through Kyon's mind. The Divine Flower of Growth seemed to have been created for him to take advantage of Juno in all senses of the term! Juno was a virgin, after all. She owed him huge, and this pill was ideal for his revenge! It was a gift from above! He would never miss this chance. Her strength and cultivation were going to benefit him greatly. Cleaning her keys would no longer be equal to tightening a loop around his own neck!
Kyon made a decision to make Juno nurture this body.
Two more bodies attracted his attention.
The Titan had the following requirements: being stocky, strong, courageous, sincere, ingenuous and simple-hearted. Among the properties were high resistance to the elements and incredible physical strength.
And finally, the Leviathan could transform the owner into a powerful creature, increasing all the parameters by a high percentage. The only catch was the age requirement. The owner's soul had to be two hundred years old and above. Would anyone want to destroy their foundation at the age of 200 and begin nurturing a new body?
Each of the five bodies Kyon had chosen wasn't good enough for him.
{Hm... Working on them, I could try and improve them. They are at the beginning of "A" rank which is not even the highest one... Why not delve into alchemy and find out what I am capable of?}
That's what the talented bender of all the nine elements decided to do right away.
Kyon sat up. «Not bad... Your master is pleased with your massage. Congratulations, your skills are improving. You know, I feel tense when your pulse starts racing with pleasure. Are you getting a taste for it?»
«No!» - Juno exclaimed angrily. She took a wet towel and wiped her thin, delicate hands.
«Master…» - Juno muttered between clenched teeth. – «Aren't you forgetting something?»
«Right!» - He snapped his fingers. - «After you leave my room, I order you to send a guard to kill Yegorka. Tell him to do everything quietly and keep mum, or he won't live long. I want to see the asshole's head as soon as possible or he might try and take revenge on me.»
Kyon had no choice, he had to take this risk. The castrate must die. If Flitz didn't solve the situation, then the guard would do it.
Juno rose to her full height. «You can't kill him! He is my childhood friend! We've gone through a lot together!» - She exclaimed with a plea in her voice.
«I couldn't care less.» - Kyon replied indifferently.
Yegorka signed a death sentence the moment he sent the two losers for him.
«Master, please!» - Juno looked at him plaintively. - «He's a complete fool, but…»
«He wanted to kill me! Use your head at least sometimes, dumbass! Why should I keep him alive?»
«But…»
«Another "but" and you will not get the cleaning for several months.»
Juno pressed her little pink lips into a thin line and nodded obediently. «I will do it, master.»
They stared into each other's eyes for several seconds.
Kyon sighed. «Okay, come here.»
Juno flashed him a dazzling smile and sat down beside him, trembling. She'd been waiting for this moment, and there it was at last!
Kyon unceremoniously put his hand under her blouse, poked his finger into her plexus and smiled at her reaction. Juno cringed as if there was a slug on her skin.
He decided to stop cleaning her pure energy key as it was the most important key for any practitioner. He proceeded to the key of the wind element instead.
When it was cleaned by 10%, Kyon remembered the unfortunate tomb where he would never have recovered so quickly without Juno's help. He could have died of thirst. Gratitude made him clean another 10%. Besides, her recent order to the guards was quite impressive. She may "blow" as much as she liked.
After Kyon removed his hand, Juno thanked him enthusiastically:
«Thank you, master!!»
The happy little demon peered into her formation to see if there was anyone behind the door and ran out of the room to test her newly gained wind power.
Kyon shook his head. {I guess I chose to clean her keys instead of killing her for a reason. The little, albeit insidious devil gives quite a pleasant massage... Her face burning with shame and my future revenge are totally worth it!}
