章 271: Lean on me
'What should I do?'
Filvis didn't know what to do, and she knew she had no escape. If it weren't due to her constitution or the curse on her body, she would die when she fought Isao in the dungeon. At this moment, she was at the peak of her crisis, especially when she knew the strength of the person before him.
Frankly, even though her deity had told her to kill him, she hesitated as she knew well that her strength wasn't enough to defeat him.
Yet, as was the wish of her deity, she could only bite the bullet and agree.
Frankly, she thought to attack the Dian Cecht Familia, but the security of that place and the people that had been guarding Isao when he was hurt was too powerful, and if she made a rash move, she knew that she would be caught and all the plan and her peaceful life would disappear.
If it was before, Filvis might not have hesitated, but it was different now, especially after she got to know Lefiya, the only pure elf who cared about her.
If Lefiya knew what Filvis truly was...
"...."
Still, while Filvis wished to die, she knew that she couldn't. Her body was no longer pure like before, but a monster-like body that made her disgusted.
"Why didn't you say anything?" Isao looked at Filvis and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I might kill you?"
"You can't kill me."
Filvis had a unique skill, and this skill allowed her to divide herself into two. Even if one of her body was killed, as long as the other was living, she would be okay. However, the biggest flaw of this skill was that when she divided her strength, her strength was also divided.
Her true strength might be a Level 7, but as she used this skill, her strength was just about slightly above Level 3.
Facing Isao, who had become a Level 4 and also had a strange technique that allowed him to grow stronger, Filvis knew that she was helpless.
"Get your other self here. Let's have a duel."
Filvis widened her eyes when she heard Isao's words.
"You are just a Level 3; defeating you like this gives me a bad taste."
"..."
Filvis was speechless, wondering how Isao could know her skill. "H-How...?!" Even if she was killed by Isao, she didn't feel afraid since she knew that she would still be living as her other self was hiding, and it might be better that way since that way, Isao would think of her dead, and when that happened, she could sneak attack on him, killing him, but Isao knew about her ability, so this plan was meaningless.
"I know many things." Isao looked at Filvis and said, "If I want to, I can expose what your deity did, letting him be targeted by everyone and live in terror."
Frankly, Filvis's deity was a piece of shit. It was the worst deity that Isao had ever known, but considering the myth of this deity from his world, it was normal; then again, he also never underestimated this deity, considering this deity was part of the Twelve Olympians.
This was why he directly took down Filvis, who was the strongest follower of this deity.
Filvis Challia.
With beautiful black flowing hair like a dark night, ruby-like eyes, and a beautiful appearance befitting her race as an elf, her reputation was horrible. Unlike the other elves that were favored and longed for due to their beautiful appearance, she was being avoided by many and even called "Banshee" by others.
How did she receive such a horrible nickname?
It was because she was the only one who was able to escape from the tragedy on the Nightmare of the 27th Floor. During that accident, she was the only one who was living and returned to the Rivira, yet at that time, everyone stared at her horribly, especially when they saw her husk-like figure, bloodshot eyes, and expression like a living corpse.
Yet, even with her horrible experience, everyone thought that she had left all of her comrades, leaving all of them dead. However, the truth during that tragedy, she never tried to run away and to save her companions despite their efforts to ensure that she could escape; she refused to flee after hearing only a tiny plea from one of them, even when she fully knew she had no chance of winning against her opponent.
Still, when she thought that she would die, her opponent, the Demi Spirit, revived her and turned her into this grotesque creature who wasn't an elf or a monster.
If she was a human, she might be okay and accept herself, but she was an elf, a proud race, and naturally, she couldn't accept that she had become a hideous and disgusting creature, so she tried to kill herself so many times, whether it was by burning herself, hunger, or even stabbing her heart, she couldn't die no matter what, but when she almost gave up, a deity came and told her that he loved her even if she was like this.
Being accepted and given warmth, she became dependent on her deity.
For him, she would do anything.
Yes, she knew that she was being used, toyed, and even tormented, but as the only one who could accept her the way she was, she was so loyal to him and would give her everything.
Even if she was betrayed since her deity was involved with the Olivas Act, the culprit of the Nightmare 27th Floor, her deity was her everything.
So, when she heard Isao's threat, and she thought that her deity would become a target of everyone, her expression became of horror, and she pleaded with him. "I-I will do anything. I-I beg you! Please don't do anything to Dionysus-sama!"
She didn't doubt Isao's words since she knew how ruthless he was. Even when he faced her, he directly knocked her out and broke her legs. Even if she had healed her legs, she didn't dare to run away and even grabbed his pants, begging him not to do anything to her deity even though her deity planned to destroy Orario.
"When you tried to kill me, it was too late."
"No, please... I will do anything for you... whatever you want..."
Filvis didn't know what to do, but her wish to save her deity, Dionysus, was real, yet—
"You will do anything?"
When those words came out of Isao's mouth, Filvis looked up at him. His expression was quite subtle, and he even stared at her body as if trying to appraise her. While he hid it well, she could see the obsceneness of his eyes, and at the same time, she also remembered Lefiya's words, who complained to her about Isao, who often seduced many women.
Frankly, as an elf, she was familiar with this gaze as she was beautiful, but even so, she disgusted them since she felt that they were just animals who only thought with their lower bodies.
She thought that Isao was the same, yet...
Wasn't it better that way?
If Isao was interested in her body, then she could gain his affection and then take him down.
Yet, as an elf, her chastity was important, and Dionysus also had never touched her. Naturally, she wished to give her most important thing to her deity, who could accept her, and she shouldn't let Isao tarnish her body, yet she knew that she didn't have a choice, and she knew that this was the only way for her to save her deity.
Nevertheless, frankly, she didn't hate this gaze as she could tell that she was attractive in his eyes.
However—
Filvis suddenly stopped her ability and let Isao see her real body. Unlike before, her black hair grew long enough that it touched the ground, and her eyes turned dark blue. The area around her eyes sank in; pale red root-like things grew out of the magic stone in her chest, and her skin turned an unhealthy bluish-white color.
"I am a monster. Do you find me attractive even if I am like this?"
Somehow, she couldn't lie, or rather, she didn't want to lie.
Or did she expect him to show an interest in her and accept her the way she was?
Frankly, unlike others, Filvis could tell that Isao must have known that she was a creature, a monster that was born from the Demi-Spirit, yet, even so, he showed her interest in her.
While Filvis was deeply loyal toward Dionysus, if possible, she wanted others to accept her the way she was, especially when Dionysus wished to destroy Orario. While she didn't care about the lives of others, especially when they had persecuted her, a little hope was still present within her heart. She wished someone would accept her the way she was, especially when she knew this person was still on the side of the good.
'Isao Iinuma...'
As she said this name inside her heart, she stared at him, waiting for his reaction. Frankly, she wanted to show him the inside of her body as she could peel her chest, showing her grotesque innards to him, yet she refrained from doing so since, while she didn't want to admit it, she wanted him to accept her.
Still, even if she didn't show her innards, her appearance was still like a monster, so could Isao find her attractive even if she was like this?
Watching Filvis, who regained her Level 7 strength, yet instead of attacking him, she asked him whether he could find her attractive, Isao felt weird. At the same time, he thought that this situation was quite similar to when he met Hephaestus for the first time.
Similar to Filvis, Hephaestus found herself ugly, especially due to her disfigured eye.
Filvis was in the same situation as her body, which had become a "creature."
Yet, frankly, even if she was like this, Isao had to admit that she was attractive.
Or rather, were there any elves that weren't attractive?
Still, Isao wondered whether it was okay to do this since, at this moment, he became the bad guy in the NTR story who forced the lover of others to serve him.
He thought that they would be fighting to death, yet suddenly, it had become the situation where he might sleep with her after this. As for his subtle eyes before, he wanted her to become a spy so he could look after Dionysus, watching what Dionysus planned to do.
As he was struggling, wondering what he should do, disappointment, regret, and pain appeared on Filvis' face, but at that moment, Isao made his move.
"—?!"
Filvis opened her eyes wide, watching him kissing her lips gently and lovingly.
Pushing him away was the most appropriate reaction since even if she had become a monster, she still thought of herself as an elf. Her chastity had always been something that she protected the most, so how could she let herself be tarnished by this man?
Yet, feeling how gentle this kiss was and how he hugged her softly while hesitating, Filvis reached out to him and clung to him softly before slowly, tightly embracing him as if she didn't want him to let her go.
Still, as she was a virgin, even if she was stronger than him, she was soon defeated and lost her breath, then leaned on his chest softly.
"You have been through a lot."
His voice was gentle, like a lullaby, and his gentleness made her eyes cry.
"But you don't have to be afraid. Even if you are like this, you can lean on me all the time. I am here for you."
Filvis looked at him with tears and asked nervously, "Can I? I am like this..."
"Yes, I am here." Isao nodded. "Our meeting might be short, but I won't let you be hurt anymore. From now on, let me wipe your tears."
"I..."
Then, there were no words between them anymore as Filvis decided to give her everything, and as usual, Isao always stole the lover of others.
