Chapter 158: Training Program-5 [Run, Run....]
"~mmff~"
"....Could you please moan? I might push you down" Eli stated as he applied an antidote to her skin where swelling occurred.
"W-What? Pe--"
"What?"
Luna wanted to curse at him however seeing his blank look she shut her mouth.
Her face was beet-red, and she was breathing heavily as her lower body started to feel tingly.
Eli observed for a second and glanced at the place where a little wet patch appeared.
He sighed and continued to apply the antidote to her legs and hands then when he looked,
"Swan?" Eli could see a beautiful Swan tattoo etched on her back.
Hearing his mutter, she snapped and a glint passed through her eyes before saying,
"...It's my blessing"
Eli slowly nodded and continued his treatment like a professional.
"Finally, face" Eli said as he applied on her face and....he got a glimpse of something that no girl wished any man to see.
'Life is truly cruel' Eli muttered inwardly and continued without glancing at it anymore.
Feeling a chill, Luna trembled a bit before calming down.
After finishing everything,
"Drink this and Stay like that for 10 minutes"
"...Okay" Luna nodded her head. She was still standing as it was easy to apply medicine and asked nervously,
"What is this?" as she looked at the dark grey liquid in the small bottle.
"It's medicine to clear your mind"
Eli went a little far then sat down and started to prepare more medicine.
She looked back and forth and then had some doubts but after realizing warm hands protected her, she gulped it down without a second thought.
It tasted the same as water....and soon she felt her mind a little clear.
"hmmm?" Luna suddenly called who was looked at curiously, 'I thought he would touch me more, seems like I judge him wrong....maybe he is a good guy, but.....'.
"Yes?" Eli said without turning his head.
"I-Its just...you know, you seem like a good guy but my eyes never lied-"
"I think you should not speak about it" Eli's words cut her off.
"...hmph, It's not like I wanted to know more about or anything" She pouted as her eyes shone, 'I still could see it'.
"....If you wanted to know, Why don't you answer my questions first?"
"...." Luna pondered a bit before saying, "Okay".
"Do you need help?"
It was a blunt and irrelevant question.
Eli wasn't an idiot when he saw her sudden frightened face after she slapped him.
From what he deduced, It was either she was being abused or traumatized by something.
However, after checking her body, he didn't find anything and thought maybe she healed herself.
"...I-I don't know what you are t-talking a-about?" It took a moment to understand as she answered stuttering.
Eli stopped whatever he was doing and glanced at her for a second, 'Whatever' he shrugged his shoulder and returned to his work.
After that only silence prevailed.
The nasty smell disappeared.
"Let's wipe it" Eli said as he walked towards her after 10 minutes.
"Hmm" Luna only nodded.
Eli slowly wiped her face, hands, legs and back.
"Everything is fine?" Feeling a strong gaze on her back, Luna asked.
"...Yeah, The swelling is reduced" Forcibly tore his eyes away from the swan.
Hearing that, Luna suddenly jogged towards the pond and saw her reflection.
Her face almost returned to normal, 'Seems like he was saying true' she muttered and said,
"Thank you, Eli"
Hearing her heartfelt words, Eli raised his one eyebrow as if he was surprised.
Seeing this, an annoyance appeared on her face,
"What?"
"Well...I thought you would say, 'You should be grateful for seeing my body, Commoner' or something" Eli mimicked her style.
An embarrassment washed over me.
"I am not that low to not thank my benefactor" She said while maintaining the annoyance.
"Yeah, Yeah" Eli waved his hand.
'grrr' She gritted her teeth and was about to dress up when,
"I don't think, I helped for free though"
As soon as those words came out of his mouth, Eli caught her hands and cornered on the wall.
"Huh? W-Wai-What you w-Want?" She was struggling to escape, 'Damn it, I should have at least trained my body'.
Eli stared at her sapphire eyes that showed hatred.
"Mind if I eat you?" Eli said seriously.
"..." Luna startled for a second and blushed to see his confession then, "grrrr....I have someone in my heart" said sternly.
"Are you sure?" Eli simply asked as closed their distance.
"Y-Yes, I am" Luna stuttered as she tried to lean back despite knowing she was already cornered.
Hearing that, Eli leaned towards her, Luna suddenly closed her eyes, her heart was beating faster, and she was almost naked, she wondered whether to use the bracelets or not.
And just about to break the bracelet when,
"Your dead eyes show everything, Luna Dawn" Eli whispered in her ear and left her alone.
It took a moment to realize, Luna's body trembled, 'D-Did he k-now?' numerous thoughts were running through her mind.
Her body was trembling as she glanced at his back before dressing up.
After that, They didn't speak much, they silently walked up the stairs which spiralled around 3 times, and it finally ended.
"Looks like these stairs are the entrance to the Overlord" Eli mumbled as he saw the same structure when he entered the dungeon.
The place they were standing was seemed to the end of the path.
Luna glanced at Eli, her nervous expression was obvious to anyone, however, Eli decided not to delve.
"Let's wait here" Eli suddenly said as he sat down at the corner and shone emerald green before taking a breath.
"Why?" Luna doubted, 'Isn't it best to search them?'.
"I think they are almost here"
"How did you know?" Luna squinted her eyes.
"Well, my wifely tingly picking something" Eli said with amusement, 'I am sure, Scylla would be fuming'.
"..." Luna made a weird face then she silently walked near and sat near him....almost their shoulder touched.
Seeing this, Eli raised his eyebrows.
As if she read his mind, Luna answered,
"Hmph, I am just keeping you company, don't mistake me that I trust you or anything....that far from the truth"
'....then what about before?' Eli really wanted to shout however, he shut his mouth.
Feeling her gaze, Eli asked, "What?"
"W-Well, I wondered what you meant before?"
Clearly, her eyes were shaking.
"...That's what it means.
If I hadn't seen your dead eyes and frightened reaction, I would have thought you really liked him" Eli said seriously while glancing at her.
"H-Hahah" Luna awkwardly laughed and thought, 'Looks like he didn't know anything'.
"Did he blackmailing you?" Eli questioned seriously.
Luna was suddenly panicked and said,
"N-No, he is not"
Seeing her panicked expression, Eli's face turned grimace because he thought of another girl who was close to Alexander, 'Did he also....?' a dangerous glint passed through his eyes.
"You know..."
"Hmm?"
Eli snapped out and glanced at her.
"Why didn't you touch me or force me to do 'it'?" Her eyes dropped down with a gloomy expression.
This question swirled around her mind when Eli said he wanted her.
From the very moment they met, she said she wanted to kill him then she used the duel to lure him to the kingdom... no matter what, shouldn't he be supposed to kill her or hurt her? And they were all alone, what's more, if he decided to take her virginity she would have no obligation to oppose him....heck, even Nex wouldn't oppose him all because of her single mistake.
Anyone in his place would surely use any means to bed with her....even if Alex had the chance, he would go for it without guilt.
She was not discriminating against her boyfriend or anything it's just how this world works and there were times he tried to use force.
She knew more than anyone...to wear a perfect mask.
A Mask that has no flaws and would go to any length in order to get what she needs to do.
However unlike others, Eli didn't show any lust towards her....even when she was only in underwear...his eyes never showed any lust....only a soft smile and professional face however she did sense something like pity but she decided to forget about it.
Though he tried to do something to her the moment she rejected, he didn't use force.
Why he was still kind to her....this made her think a lot of things.
Hearing her question,
"That's, there is someone who said to me...'Don't ever touch a girl who says 'no''"
"..." Hearing that Luna totally lowered her guard and leaned on his shoulder.
"That's why I going to you snatch you from your 'boyfriend'"
Luna's body stiffened, she moved her head like a robot and saw predatory eyes.
'gulp'
Her throat turned dried as she was about to move,
"Kyaa!!"
Eli wrapped his hands around her waist then pulled her close and seductively said,
"I am not particularly interested in snatching another person's lover....however, you are really making me do something immoral, Luna"
Luna's face turned beet red, she blinked as if she couldn't understand what was going on.
'sniff'
"Your flower-like smell is also enticing me more, Luna" Eli teased her more seeing the bright red face.
Just about to say something when,
"!!!!!!!"
'spark, spark'
Eli disappeared and ran as fast as he could,
"Huh?"
It happened so fast Luna couldn't see but felt she was being carried like a sack bag again.
She snapped out of her thoughts. She tried to stabilize herself and saw....
The monster they escaped from suddenly broke the ground and emerged from it.
However what's more important was the place where they sat, an enormous stinger stabbed on the ground as some kind of fluid leaked.
Thinking about it, if not Eli, She would have turned into minced paste....she was now really grateful you know.
Eli didn't care to look because the moment he slowed down, the pain in his legs would cause a hell of pain.
After a few turns they thought they escaped, however,
'sssusshhhyy'
Using its eight legs it moved like a cockroach.
Luna's face turned pale.
"Fuck, Run faster!! That fucker keeps coming"
"..." Eli raised eyebrows at her foul mouth but later he shrugged it off.
"Shit!!"
/Holy Barrier/
Fortunately, this time it stopped the incoming stinger....however,
'crack, crack'
Barrier broke.
Despite that Luna shouted,
"Spirnt Left"
Hearing that Eli suddenly twisted his body to the left, however, his instincts screamed to the right,
"W-What?"
'chuck'
Eli was slightly hit however, it was the stinger end.
"What the fuck?"
Luna screamed and said furiously,
"Don't you have a brain, idiot, I said Left idiot, Left!!!"
'slap'
"HIII!!"
"You flaty, four padded flaty....say in my perceptive, idiot" Eli slapped her butt and said with annoyance....If not for his instincts he would pierced by that monster.
"..." Luna's face turned pale as her heartbeat stopped for a second.
"Y-Yoou Sa--rrrrrhhhhh----D-Damn you C-commoner, How dare you hit my b-butt? a-nd I am not fla-shit"
She again saw an incoming attack.
"Let's break the bracelet"
However to her dismay,
"No, not now"
"W-What?---"
Just about to curse him when,
"OOIII, VICE-PRES.....I GOT YOU A PRESENT!!!"
Eli saw a group of people walking in their line of running, so he simply used them.
'Giving me a punishment...We sure are lucky to run into her...hahahaha' he was really a petty person.
"HUH!!!!"
