Monster Girl Ranching in Another World

Chapter 412 Betrayal

Chapter 412 Betrayal

The monochrome world spun around me, and I found myself in a sprawling desert. I was searching for a lost artifact called the "Eye of Horus". The artifact was rumored to give the wielder immense power and control over aspects beyond human comprehension.

Looking around, I spotted a massive structure rising from the desert sands. It was unmistakably a pyramid, the eternal resting place of pharaohs, and richly laden with riddles and traps designed to ward off grave robbers. Intricate hieroglyphs adorned the entrance, providing clues or deterrents — I knew not which.

Suddenly, out of the corner of my eyes, I saw movement. Approaching me were three women; each wore gold and fabric in intricate designs, their headdresses crowned with an Ankh, the symbol of life. Their smoky kohl-lined eyes focused on me. Cleopatra, Nefertiti, and Hatshepsut, queens from different Egyptian dynasties, renowned for their beauty and intellect.

"Welcome to our realm, brave traveler," Cleopatra greeted, her eyes mysterious and inviting.

"A hero's worth is defined by his ability to solve riddles," Nefertiti continued, giving me a knowing look.

Hatshepsut finally spoke up, "If you solve the riddle hidden within our chambers, we shall reward you greatly," she concluded, adding a suggestive wink.

"Oh? You wouldn't happen to know where the Eye of Horus is, do you?" I asked curiously since that seemed to be what I was here for.

I knew these women, but not as people, but as historical figures in books. Even though my mind had been fogged by Dank, I was getting used to being able to push through the implanted memories. One thing that had been common among each training scenario was they were my girls from the real world. These women were not, so I kept my guard up.

Their smiles widened, full of secrets untold and promises yet to be delivered. "The Eye of Horus lays within the labyrinth troves of this pyramid. To reach it, you shall need to unravel the riddles that lie on our path and in our chambers," Cleopatra responded.

"The first riddle is this: I am taken from a mine, and shut up in a wooden case, from which I'm never released, and yet I am used by almost everyone. What am I?" Nefertiti said smirking, clearly expecting me to fail.

I thought for a moment, thanking my brain's peculiar habit of storing random trivia. I recalled the arcane conventions of ancient Egyptian riddle craft. "A pencil," I answered confidently, seeing their surprise as the sand beneath our feet shifted and solidified into a narrow path leading directly to the pyramid's entrance.

"Indeed," Hatshepsut conceded before adding with a sultry edge to her voice, "but the next riddles won't be as easy."

She gently took my hand, leading me toward the pyramid while Cleopatra and Nefertiti walked ahead of us. The sight was both unnerving and wildly exciting at the same time. Here I was, surrounded by three legendary queens who held my fate in their hands.

Still, I had another type of training in mind, wanting so much more than just riddles. If Dank mirrored his world-like reality these legendary queens would be no different. A heavy gulp swallows my mouth and throat; my heart hammered against my chest. That single glance stirred a growing hunger within me. My breathing grew labored as the gaps in their shawls revealed far too much alluring skin.

Both my brains were having a hard time deciding where to look as Hatshepsut’s breasts bounced from the rhythm of her walking. To top it off, Cleopatra marked her steps by swinging her hips. Meanwhile, Nefertiti looked back to catch my wandering gaze, signaling they knew what they were doing. It was obvious the queens had agreed to tease me, but I was the first player in this game!

As we ventured deeper into the pyramid, the atmosphere grew thicker with sexual tension. Each step down the dark corridors was fraught with suggestive remarks from the queens and double entendres that began as veiled riddles now unraveled into open flirtations.

Every riddle solved came with its own reward; fleeting but heated touches were lavished on me by the trio. A stolen kiss here, a wandering hand there. The tantalization was becoming unbearable.

Finally, we arrived at a grand chamber, ornately decorated and dimly lit by flickering torches. In the center lay an elaborate golden sarcophagus encrusted with jewels.

"This is your final riddle", Hatshepsut declared, her voice echoing off the stone walls, but something had changed about her voice, making her sound more sinister.

Before I could react, the three queens left the room, closing the door behind them as another much larger door opened. I could see massive blue lion's feet being revealed and I sighed with relief. I should have known that the women were leading me into a trap, but I would be lying if I said I still didn't want to fuck them all!

"So, the wretched queens have brought me another snack?" Veronica, the Sphinx asked with a dangerous purr, her massive form stepping out from the shadows. "Very well, let's play by their rules."

Despite my predicament, I swallowed my fear and prepared myself for whatever riddle Veronica was about to present. I had defeated her sister long ago but fell in love with Veronica after bringing them from the cave that Mex had placed them in. That reminded me of Clesh and Mex cheating on her with Veronica's sister. Bah! I had to get my head in the game!

"I suppose that you can't give me an easy riddle, right?" I asked, looking around the room to see if there might be traps anywhere.

Veronica, the Sphinx, snorted. "I'd almost feel insulted, except..." She trailed off suggestively as my eyes met hers over her protruding sphinx breasts.

"But alas, I must quench my master." She smiled, rubbing her hand through the sand erotically.

"Take heed brave one, for you embark on a perilous journey where even the smallest misstep could lead to your demise," she said while fluttering her long lashes at me over her golden eyes, adding an alluring heat under the danger.

"She lives in the house that light built, guided by tides yet knows no seasons. What is she?" The Sphinx threw out the final riddle, the intensity of her gaze boring into me like a heated brand.

I knew that look in Veronica's vibrant gold cat-like eyes. We faced monsters and battles that would make even Heracles quake. Sand molded to her legs revealing tiny gold panties that did nothing to hide her pussy from my view and a matching bra working its best to hold her massive gazongas. Her tail flicked about behind her as she watched me think with glee.

"She has made kings rise and fall, and empires crumble. People are drawn to her like moths to a flame but it's not her beauty, but rather what she embodies — change, mystery, power. She's seen ups and downs, waxing and waning over centuries," I dispatched the line of thought as my own memories were spiked-striking up an image of how wonderful they felt.

"And yet when people see her, they're comforted knowing that some things don't quite change. A constant among constants, even in shadow."

A pause as I gathered myself.

Pause wasn't necessary, I snapped my fingers with realization. Gazing up at Veronica, I declared, "The Moon."

Upon hearing the correct answer, Veronica gave a satisfying purr. She rose, standing tall and graceful before shrinking down to human size as she walked towards me acknowledging my victory. With the door to freedom wide open, and Vermillion waiting for me home, Zack realized his next task was going to be anything but simple.

"What do you think you notice first: my moons or yours?" She purred, signaling the beginning of the fourth round of best training ever!
