Chapter 86 86: To You Who Seeks My Return
Raven\'s body moved towards the back of the office; inside the black safe with a digital lock was the dungeon\'s completion reward.
"Haha, it\'s interesting that it\'s not a chest but a safe."
"Did we get anything cute?"
There was something that troubled Raven since they entered this dungeon; even after killing so many zombies and the boss, there was no notification for experience gain or credits; he wanted to check if there was some information on the bureau\'s datapad.
But nothing...
\'I don\'t understand... in the lower floors, we got to experience, but once they became more human-like... It stopped coming, like some bug in the system.\'
"That doesn\'t make sense..." He whispered.
Suddenly, he felt Lilith\'s soft body pressed against him before wrapping around his arm, her warm breath tickling his forearm.
"Lilith, did you get any experience for the last floor and the boss?"
Her cute eye peeked towards him before tilting her head, shaking it before pulling her tongue at him.
"Nope, I got no pennies, no experience, only a wet.."
"Okay, okay..."
Raven interrupted her as he stepped towards the chest, wondering if he would need to enter a code before it popped open the moment he approached, with two strange crystals inside.
One Blue
One Purple
"Which colour do you want?"
"Purple.. it feels like it\'s calling to me. Can I have it, Raven?"
"Ah, I felt the same towards the blue one."
It was strange because he couldn\'t analyse the strange crystal with his current datapad, only showing the words [No Data] when he scanned the item like others they found.
However, the moment he picked up the blue crystal as if it had been waiting for him, the blue began to shimmer before melting into his hands, permeating his skin.
"Argh!"
"Ugh!"
Both of them began to convulse, blue veins protruding and writhing under their skin, as countless snippets of memories and thoughts began to fuse with their minds.
Raven had no idea what Lilith saw, only noticing that her level skyrocketed as she muttered the names, Althea and Samantha.
When he tried to overcome the pain, a strange couple appeared in his mind, a male with a huge sword, walking towards a mass of disgusting creatures, undead, mutants, demons and other horrifying creatures, his left hand an Eastern-style sword, with a red and black glow, his right hand a Blue Western sword, with a white glow, his back was broad, tall with pointed ears and long white hear.
Yet Raven couldn\'t see his face; only the sheer regal aura from his body caused him to freeze on the spot, even in this strange dream-like memory.
"Sarah, you said you were pregnant?"
The man\'s voice was nostalgic, similar to Raven\'s most dear family.
He began to erupt with a bloody aura, steps hastening as he rushed towards the endless horde of undead; behind him was an army of beautiful females armed with thick steel armour, strange weapons and shields as they held a line on a beautiful silver coloured stone wall, rather than the wall it was like a bastion.
A woman with blazing red hair stood atop the wall; her eyes were beautiful and alluring as she fluttered her succubus wings, howling orders as the handsome males and beautiful females like a commander.
Before he could take in the magnificent sight of the white city, Raven\'s vision snapped towards the man again, his eyes widening as a beautiful sight greeted him.
Her ears furry and silver, long black hair glossy and wondrous like the night sky, she looked towards him as if able to see him, a faint smile on her lips, before her neon-blue eyes turned back to the white-haired male.
"Alexander... How about Sylvester?"
"Sylvester? For what?"
The male was extremely handsome, or rather beautiful, but his confused face was a little amusing for Raven, watching as he turned around, the horde of monsters now rushing towards the two people.
·ƈθm "For our future son, of course, ~ idiot."
"What!? It\'s a boy!"
Instantly the bloody aura around Alex exploded, his back seeming to grow bloody wings and a halo of blood; before the vision began to fade, the last sight in Raven\'s eyes was that impressive man\'s dash into the countless undead, his twin swords slicing through them like butter.
While the beautiful woman transformed into a hulking female wolf with silver hair, dashing to his aid, her fangs ripping any monsters that tried to attack him apart.
In the final moments, as the vision became darkness, there was a strange mixture of voices.
"Kayne, can you send him somewhere safe? Until the time is right, can he help us win this war?"
"Are you sure... Alexander... my dear friend, you might never meet him... for thousands of years... the time difference between two worlds in different universes is too complex... he could be born before you even existed..."
"Please..."
"You make this old mad sad... Looking so serious... It was his son, not him, that was in the prophecy... It\'s cruel to make our grandchildren fight..."
"Kayne..."
"Old friend..."
The next moments were filled with a gentle lullaby of a beautiful woman\'s husky, deep voice and a feeling of relaxation and movement, as if his body was floating in the sea, slowly but gradually in the cool water.
-
Lilith watched Raven\'s body gently glowing with a silver and blue light, while sometimes a small blood mist would dance around his body like invisible fairies were rejoicing at his current state.
"Raven...?"
She didn\'t understand why his eyes showed slight streams of tears, only leaning over him, her soft fingers wiping them away, stroking along his cheeks.
"Are you in pain?"
\'Why is he so different? I only felt a strange crack and boom! My level reached 12...\'
Her body covered his, the blue and silver aura seeming soothed as she approached; her eyes couldn\'t see the visible changes.
However, if Raven were awake, he would see his purple energy glint with small silvery blue crystals, like stars shimmering in the purple liquid as they gently refined Lilith\'s body.
A much more gradual and soft process, no longer making the woman\'s body suffer as she slowly became more powerful.
Not only then, but the small ball in his abdomen was now like a little sphere; it seemed like a moon as it rotated and orbited around a red dot in his core.
"Sarah..." His hoarse voice sounded, causing Lilith\'s concerned face to look a little angry as she looked at him with narrowed eyes.
"Who is Sarah!?" She gasped, her tail swaying in the air, both hands placed on his chest as she mounted him, looking slightly strange with an obsessive look in her eyes.
"Another girl... There\'s another woman. I have to mark him... then other women won\'t approach, like how male cats spray their piss... I\'ll fill his body with my love..."
"Don\'t blame me, baby~ blame yourself for being too sexy!"
Lilith\'s mouth opened wide, her sharp teeth showing as she leaned down, starting with his neck, and began to bite down on his almond flesh, sucking and piercing into his flesh, the delicious flavour of his blood causing her to swoon.
The way she bit him was like a ferocious beast, tearing and clawing at him, making sure it would leave a mark, her mark as her tail wrapped around his lower body, extracting all his excess essence so there was no more to give to anyone else.
She was rampant and wild but suddenly stopped after he began to stir after almost an hour, ensuring she cleaned up any mess or bodily fluids.
As he began to stir completely, his eyes flickering open.
"Ugh... Damn, my body feels like wolves chewed on it..."
Raven\'s mind was foggy, but he remembered the strange vision completely.
The moment he was going to go over the memories and ask Lilith what she saw when she touched her\'s, an immense pain began to fill his body as he watched Lilith collapse, her body shuddering on the ground too.
[You have Gained Enough Experience To Level!]
[You have Gained Enough Experience To Level!]
[You have Gained Enough Experience To Level!]
[You have Gained Enough Experience To Level!]
[Commensing Level Up!]
"Argh! Nggh...Raven...!" Lilith cried out, her tail bending and twisting as her face filled with blood and mucus and her veins pulsing and writhing with a black bulge.
His muscles began to bulge, the veins writhing and pulsing under his skin, as he tried to crawl closer to Lilith, her mouth wide open as she let out strange cries of pain, he wanted to help her endure the pain with his purple essence.
Yet, he couldn\'t!
The moment his body turned onto its side, like lightning, a pain like his spine assaulted him and was torn out, then his legs and arms, before being twisted and replaced over and over, as only drool and groans left his mouth.
[You have reached level 21! New Talent slot unlocked!]
\'Fuck the talent.... it hurts!\' Raven thought as he felt himself being pushed into darkness.
Who knows how long since they killed the boss? There was no sun or moonlight in this world, only a broken and lonely place, now completely silent after they killed the boss.
Raven coughed violently, spitting up blood and phlegm as he rose. He had no idea how long he\'d been unconscious, but now that he was awake, he could tell why.
He opened his eyes, seeing the sky above him stretching east to west; Raven was filled with great shock.
Because...
The white city, the silver walls... were not in ruins... outside the dungeon walls, the ruined city...
It was the city from his vision.
His grandparent\'s city.
