YM778.TV Chapter 561 Talk Between Women
~~~(POV: Saliandra Orvello)~~~
~~~(Location: The Jungles of Nae\'mor, The City of Armezix, The Continent of Alforza)~~~
~~~(Time: 3:04 PM)~~~
Cera is off talking with some guys at the billboard. He said he wanted to check out what kind of quests are actually posted, which is strange since we\'re already a good distance into Armezix. I\'m curious as to what\'s on that board too, but I\'m sitting here with Jaeemara instead.
My attention is taken from Cera as I look toward Jaeemara, and she\'s watching me with a smile. It\'s a little weird being smiled at by someone I don\'t know a lot about. But she\'s a good person.
"You have that look in your eyes."
I have a lot of looks for a bunch of different ways I\'m feeling. It\'s not hard to tell when something is going through my head. But I shouldn\'t be so pessimistic about it. She\'s trying to start a conversation, and here I am, being mean with my thoughts.
"What look do I have?"
She\'s a Mother and a Wife. I doubt I have as much experience in the department of love as she does. I want to be those things someday, but it\'ll be after Cera and I are done with this life. At least, for a while.
"The look someone has when they\'re conflicted. Especially about someone they love. You\'re worried about Angel Zern and what he did, right?"
She\'s nailed it on the head. I said that I wouldn\'t think about it for a while, but I\'ve found myself back in the same headspace as before. I don\'t want to leave Cera. On the other hand, he worries me with some of the choices he makes.
His preference for violence seems to come at the forefront of his choices. And I know why. It\'s because he\'s got dark tendencies.
Not the type to make someone scream in horror, but to look at him in a light that shows another part of him. The part that could be considered a psychopath. There are many times when he\'s shown no regard for life or consequences.
That\'s one of the largest qualities of a psychopath. But I know he\'s not one. Because he\'s capable of great love and affection. He can understand and connect with others when he wants to.
I guess it\'s better to call him a sociopath. But that isn\'t a perfect fit, either.
"Yeah, he\'s been on my mind since before the threats to your Father. I\'ve noticed he acts in certain ways in different situations. Ways that many would consider... Evil... I just wish he\'d talk to me about what\'s going on in his head..."
That\'s always one of the biggest hurdles in any relationship. Cera has already opened up a great deal to me, and I can\'t complain. But I wish he\'d tell me what\'s going on in his head right now. The things that are bothering him in his life at this moment.
"Pazemad is similar to Angel Zern in a lot of ways. He\'s a warrior, protective, and he\'s got a violent streak in him too. Those are qualities you should love in a man. For if a man isn\'t capable of being a monster, he\'ll always be a victim."
Nothing truer has been said. If you\'re not capable of cruelty, hatred, and violence. If it\'s not a part of you. The people that do have it will victimize you for the rest of your life.
I do love every part of Cera, and I know I shouldn\'t dig where he doesn\'t want me to. It\'s just me wanting to be close to him. I can\'t help it.
"You have two beautiful children and a loving Husband at home. Was the only reason you agreed to help us in hopes that we solve your problem too?"
Eldinemara is a real piece of work, but you can\'t expect more or less from a powerful and wealthy man like Eldinemara. He\'s used to getting his way, and there is nothing that can stop that from happening.
"It was half the reason. The other half is this."
Way to keep it vague, Jaeemara.
She sees my slightly confused look and chuckles to herself.
"To show Princess Saliandra Orvello and Angel Zern around Armezix. You can only do that once, and I\'m the one who has the honor of doing it. Angel Zern is a legend and icon to many people. I couldn\'t pass up that opportunity."
She\'s not wrong about that. He\'s saved two entire races and has influenced the world in more ways than one. The Church is one of the most influential organizations in the world, and they don\'t bother Angel Zern. You could say it has to do with faith, but there is fear and respect there.
"Those are the things the public knows about him... They don\'t know the things I know about him... If they did, they wouldn\'t treat him the way they do, Jaeemara... Trust me..."
That\'s all I\'m saying in regard to this.
She nods her head in agreement and leans back in her chair, and looks over toward Cera, and I do the same. But she asks a question that makes me choke on my own air.
"How is he in bed?"
Never would I have thought I\'d be asked that by another woman, but I suppose she\'d be curious after hearing what we did. It\'s embarrassing, but those are the consequences.
"I don\'t think I should talk about that..."
I should give an effort to get out of this. Jaeemara rolls her eyes and stands up from her seat, and sits down even closer to me. Making sure that I\'m able to whisper to her.
"This is what girls talk about. We share things about our men and lives. Don\'t you want to brag about your man?"
Well... I do... But I\'m not sure if Cera would want that... He already works hard to keep attention off him, and talking about our... Sex life... Isn\'t the best way to respect that?
"Don\'t worry about him. What he doesn\'t know won\'t hurt him."
That\'s the worse excuse I\'ve ever heard when rationalizing.
"Okay, if you won\'t go first, I\'ll start. Pazemad does this really amazing thing with his fingers when he\'s inside me, and I end up go-!"
I place my hand over her mouth before she continues any further. The blush on my face is enough to light up a dark room. I didn\'t realize having a girl talk could be so embarrassing.
I remove my hand, and she releases a small sigh.
"Well, now it\'s your turn. Just one detail."
~~~(POV Cera Adamo)~~~
~~~(Location: The Jungles of Nae\'mor, The City of Armezix, The Continent of Alforza)~~~
~~~(Time: 3:20 PM)~~~
There is chilling energy crawling up my spine. One that I\'ve never felt before. It\'s weird and foreign to me. Whatever the source of it is, I can\'t lock it down. My eyes land on Jaeemara and Sally, and they look to be having a conversation.
Sally\'s face is redder than a ruby, and Jaeemara has an amused smile on her face.
"Are they talking about me..."
You can\'t help wondering that when you leave your girlfriend alone with another girl. I\'ve heard about the conversations women have in private. They\'re more than open to talking about personal details.
I shake my head free of those thoughts and focus back on the board. The Magical Translator has helped me read the languages on the board\'s pages.
There isn\'t anything of great interest, and there isn\'t much to talk about in terms of reward. But there seems to be a lot of thievery going on in Armezix. Criminal organizations. Most of the posted quests are about finding and putting an end to these groups.
That\'s not interesting enough for me. But our food is almost done, so I should get back to the table. Sally might eat mine before I get there if I\'m late.
