Chapter 32 - Knowing the Truth
“…I won’t die in your hands.”
Others would be unable to make heads or tails out of this strange guarantee, but Samael became stiff after hearing it. He stood motionless with his back facing Suo Fei. His back was straight, stiff like a solitary pine tree that stood firm in the cold winter, lonely and with no one to depend on.
After being in a stalemate for quite some time, Samael’s voice eventually rang out: “I killed them with my own hands. I tore their bodies to pieces and ripped their hearts out. Everything turned into ruins. Endless screams filled the air and the ground reeked with blood. I had lost my sense of reason. I could not control myself. I was deranged… like a monster.”
Then, he finally turned around, his purple eyes tightly locking onto the elf, “Aren’t you afraid?” Samael’s voice was gentle when he spoke, but no emotion could be seen in his eyes. His clear purple eyes were frozen like ice but Suo Fei had a feeling that it would completely break with just a touch.
“I’m afraid. I’m a coward.” Suo Fei laughed at himself but he continued to speak with conviction, “But I already said this long ago: I won’t leave you.” Even if I am afraid, I will hold on. That’s my promise.
His answer was obviously much more sincere than the thoughtless two words ‘not afraid’, bringing some warmth to Samael’s coldly features. He leaned his body slightly closer to Suo Fei and whispered, “Remember your promise. Don’t be killed by me.”
Suo Fei was just about to solemnly nod in assent but suddenly paused in shock. His mouth… was blocked. This time it was not by an arm, but a mouth, mouth, mouth x infinite loop n times.
Suo Fei’s cheeks turned bright red. Samael kissed him. He kissed him mouth to mouth… F**k, what in the world is going on? Who can tell me what he is up to!
His eyes were wide open and he dared not move. His brain froze and shut down. All his senses were concentrated on his lips but he couldn’t describe how it felt. He just thought that right now, facing Samael who was less than inches away from him, with his eyes slightly narrowed, his good looks felt a bit unreal.
Wait wait wait… Could it be that it is now common to express the deepening of friendship by kissing? It must be! That’s right, he can’t be wrong!
Can’t be wrong, my ass! Common, my ass! This is Yalance, a highly explicit, danmei masterpiece where everyone is gay! He was deeply knowledgeable due to his gaming experience. How could he not know the meaning of a kiss? This indicated the start of a hook-up!
Could it be that the ultimate gong’s soul finally awakened and mistook him for one of his capture targets? Then, he launched his offensive to make him part of his np harem?
There is a saying that there’s no need to be polite towards a friend’s wife. But friends should not be treated as wives! Ultimate gong-kun, wake up! Quickly pick up your sense of shame. Nothing can happen between two gongs! 【Is this the point?】
He complained ceaselessly in his mind until he finally couldn’t help but speak out heartfelt words to earnestly persuade Samael. He was determined for the ultimate gong-kun to have some sense of shame, “We are…” Before he could utter out the word ‘impossible’, Samael spoke with a frown, “Why did I not recover?”
Suo Fei was stunned.
Why. Did. I. Not. Recover?
These five words caused a chain of explosion in Suo Fei’s head. For a moment, his face resembled the crimson clouds from a sunset sky. F**k, is this the truth?
Samael was only after ‘Sofey’s healing skill’? He wanted to use his kisses to recover his strength?
⸺Suo Fei shed a tear after knowing the truth.
⸺His active imagination embarrassed him to death.
Samael was ‘puzzled’ for a while and asked Suo Fei, “What did you just say?”
Suo Fei: “Ah, just now, oh, I was saying, I… I can only cure external wounds. I can’t treat internal injuries. Yes, yes, that was what I wanted to say.”
Samael knitted his eyebrows, “How come I heard you say ‘we are’.”
“Ah… ahaha. You misheard me, haha.”
Samael didn’t probe him any further and asked about his previous remark, “You said that you can’t treat internal injuries, you…” He paused and smilingly continued his question, “have you tried it before?”
Suo Fei: Why do I get the feeling that Samael’s smile is very ambiguous? Is it an illusion? It must be an illusion. If I misunderstand him again, I would need to find a hole in the ground to hide in.
“I haven’t tried it.” How could he say that he had tried. Would it not mean that he secretly kissed Samael while he was unconscious? Although he is very lewd, he still has a bottom line.
“Then, let’s try it.”
“Huh?”
Before he had time to react to what was happening, Samael already acted.
The Demons and Elves were tall races but the Demons had a much stronger physique than the Elves. Keeping one arm wrapped around Suo Fei’s waist, Samael lifted Suo Fei’s chin with his other hand. This simply rendered Suo Fei unable to struggle or resist.
Samael squinted his eyes and gently pecked the elf’s pale lips. It was as supple as always. Like the softest dessert, it was sweet and tempting. He lightly forced the elf’s mouth to open using his left hand, presenting more of the soft dessert before his eyes in which Samael crashed straight into without hesitation.
In Suo Fei’s life, he held some fear towards his own sexuality before he reached twenty years old. When he finally figured it out seven years later, he was already an out-and-out recluse. The only thing he dared to do was play scum ** games. He would wretchedly face the screen and fantasize that he was the ultimate gong-daren eating up all the lil’ shous from far and wide.
In fact, he was inculcated by two-dimensional works so much so that he firmly believed himself to be a gong.
It is known that all the gongs in fictional manhuas and games were mighty and domineering, and their golden guns had infinite ammo. Furthermore, doing it would not hurt but would be pleasurable instead. When compared to the f**king miserable shou, the huge disparity between the two could be seen immediately.
With such a comparison, Suo Fei thought that even if he was gay, he would opt to be the better gay, which is the gong.
But in fact, someone who holds this kind of idiotic notion is an idiot himself.
As the saying goes, real gongs would never need to mention that they are gongs, whereas, real shous would always loudly profess that they are gongs.
By the time Suo Fei understood this point, it would already be a little too late.
As he didn’t have any prior actual experience and was only an imaginative incompetent gong, the first time he experienced a genuine kiss was enough to knock him senseless.
Facing Samael’s penetrating kiss, Suo Fei was taken by surprise so he could only passively accept it. He felt himself tremble under Samael’s kisses. His innate ranting skills failed to work at this moment; he could not even properly breathe.
In order to prevent Suo Fei from being the first Pureblood elf in history to die of suffocation from kissing, Samael had no choice but to let go of Suo Fei.
Suddenly able to breathe in air, Suo Fei’s extremely oxygen-deprived brain was completely blank before he started gasping for air, his heart nearly jumping to his throat.
Suo Fei slowly calmed down after a while. Samael’s eyes were smiling as he deliberately spoke, “Seems like I recovered a little.”
Suo Fei was petrified. D*mn game developers! D*mn pre-installed cheat software! D*mn healing skills! These f*ckers definitely want to pit laozi to death!
Samael thought for a moment. Then, he looked at Suo Fei and earnestly suggested, “Maybe we should try a few more times. Maybe the effect will be much better once we’re more experienced.”
Suo Fei: …Do you really dare say so many things I could rant about? If it accumulates to an unthinkable degree, there will be a rant (nuclear) explosion!
Suo Fei was about to blow up after being entangled by Samael on this matter. Then, he finally regained his IQ and remembered the beast blood that he recently got. He hurriedly brought it out and forcefully handed it to Samael: “Here. Beast blood. Drink it to replenish your strength!”
The dwarf Evelyn who had been watching at the side calmly said, “It turns out that (gay) friends in the Elven language meant this. It is truly a race with a long history and a deep-rooted cultural heritage.”
Not only was the beast blood from a low-grade beast blood, it was also only a small amount. It was only a drop in the ocean when compared to Samael’s consumed power. They would still need a lot of high-grade beast blood for him to recover completely.
Obviously, the most convenient way was to go to the Goblins’ trading market and directly purchase beast blood. Furthermore, Suo Fei had other plans. He had a lot of gold coins at hand thus it seemed a pity to let such an opportunity go to waste.
He could try his luck at the Goblins’ trading market. It would be fortunate if he could buy a fixed-point teleportation array. If so, he would be able to directly teleport to the border of Valinor. Then, he could secretly sneak in and rescue Vixanne.
After knowing that they were going to the Goblins’ trading market, Jonah excitedly proposed for them to go together. Suo Fei thought about it before finally proposing that he would bring them along after getting Eugene’s permission.
Bringing a dwarf to the market was almost like having a truckload of discount coupons. It could even be used for all the stores in the market. Moreover, the vendors would deal with them with honesty, selling them genuine goods at a fair price.
Eugene did not reject Jonah’s request but he privately talked to Suo Fei just as they were about to head to the market.
He slipped a piece of paper to Suo Fei and told him, “I’ve listed down some rare materials. If you are lucky enough to come across them, do your best to gather them.”
Suo Fei was surprised. He flipped the paper open and was suddenly astonished after taking a quick glance.
The materials were not only rare, they were also materials of the highest grade. It was something that could only be encountered by chance.
Eugene paused for a moment before continuing, “The divine artifact has not been fully activated and two-thirds of its power is still sealed. If you can gather all these materials, I can try to fully activate it.”
This sentence shocked Suo Fei. It was not unusual for Eugene to know the secret of Asura Blade. Rather, it would be strange if a grandmaster at the level of a Craftsman God did not know about it. However, Eugene actually revealed that the power of Asura Blade had not been fully activated and that no less than two-thirds of its power was still hidden. What did this mean? There was no one who would know more than Suo Fei, who had almost cleared the game, what this meant.
Samael was already able to conquer Yalance’s every nook and cranny with just a third of its power. If it was fully activated, wouldn’t he be even more heaven-defying?
A thought suddenly crossed Suo Fei’s mind. If—if he could really activate the Asura Blade, then Samael’s ability would be tripled. By then, simply no one in Yalance could threaten him.
In that case, it would be almost impossible for Samael to fall into a situation where his HP nears zero. As such, wouldn’t it be unlikely for his crazy Berserk mode to be incited?
As long as Samael’s sense of reason remained, Suo Fei believed that Samael would not kill the innocent.
With this thought, Suo Fei tightly gripped the paper and solemnly told Eugene, “Thank you.”
Eugene said with a sigh, “Power is always a double-edged sword. You should think about it clearly.”
***
In a dark gloomy room, intricate silver lines intertwined with each other. It resembled the most ancient form of enchantment, enshrouding it in mystery.
A black-robed man could be seen sitting in the center, where the sole source of light in the room was. Shining light purple eyes could be seen under his robe, so unique that it could not be ignored.
A transparent round bead was in his hand. He intently stared at the myriad of colours rotating within it. After a while, he let out a slight smile and spoke, “It turned out to be these nine materials.”
Shockingly, it showed the content of the slip of paper in Suo Fei’s hand.
“Let me help you out then.”
The author has something to say: So, I still obligingly updated. Isn’t this chapter a little bit sweet? Of course, it’s interesting for the abuse to come after the sweetness. 【Hold up, what are you talking about?!】
