Chapter 15: Pathetic Virgin
Chapter 15: Pathetic Virgin
--- Chapter 15 ---
Baek Ain dipped his entire body up to his chin under the water and released a frustrated sigh, creating bubbles.
"Aih, this world is more dangerous than I expected now."
"Before, I only had to worry about Xiao Yan and Hall of Souls, but with this world being an alternative universe. I couldn't 100% rely on my future knowledge."
Alicia also explained her function in more detail, but Baek Ain focused more on another thing.
This world is still Battle Through the Heaven, but with some missing pieces and characters. These missing pieces are replaced with new ones, filling the gap in the world. Outside there, something changed this world, and he was appointed to fix it.
[Ding! You have finished the tutorial]
[Rewarding a Random Skill]
[Please open the reward to get it]
[The "Goddess of Opportunity." have issued another quest]
[Name: 1st Irregularity]
[Objective: Find the "Irregularity." and eliminate it]
[Penalty: Alternative BTTH World's Erasure]
[Reward: Alternative BTTH World's Transmigration Set Point and 5 Seeds of General Candidate]
"You can't blame me for being mad now, Alicia."
"No matter how I see it, this is a scam..."
[Bear with it for a while, host]
[Being "Heavenly Constelation's Champion." brings you some benefit that others couldn't obtain]
[Even though you're still far from it, You are walking on the path of Dimensional Conqueror]
Baek Ain rolled his eyes because the "Goddess of Opportunity." is a constellation from a faraway universe. Alicia doesn't share much info about her besides that choosing him as a champion was a tough decision.
[I advised you to become 5-Star Dou Grandmasters quickly to get more information]
"No shit, Sherlock."
[...]
"Fine, I'll listen to you."
[host...]
"Don't get the wrong idea, Alicia. You're the only source of information and power I could depend on in this messy situation]
"We have to gain a common ground first]
"I trusted you after nearly eight months of denial, so now I believe you'll be more attentive to warn/inform me."
[Yes]
[I won't let you down, host] Alicia sounds determined in his head.
Baek Ain closed his eyes and fell asleep in the bathtub, waking up at the sight of half-dressed Lan Rou.
Lan Rou is wearing nothing but a white towel around her well-endowed body. Baek Ain could see her v-line and faint abs through the towel, gulping nervously.
"I-Instructor, what are you doing?"
Lan Rou smiled and commented, "I saw you enjoying the cold bath, so I decided to go in as well."
"Don't worry. I've seen your naked body countless times when training you."
Baek Ain has never felt so embarrassed and instinctively covered his raising younger brother. 'God damn teenager's libido.' He thought to himself.
Unknown to Baek Ain, Lan Rou is ashamed of this situation too. She has never shown anyone her bare body, especially the opposite gender.
She was jealous when Baek Ain hugged Yafei an hour ago, so she harshly tried to become closer to him. Meanwhile, Baek Ain is too panicked about his hardened member to realize Lan Rou's blush.
[This host...]
[I've never seen such a bad case of a virgin before...]
'I can hear you, Alicia!' Baek Ain shouted internally.
[Do you want some clues?]
"..."
'Y-Yes, please.'
[First, look at her eyes]
Baek Ain breathed in and lifted his gaze, seeing Lan Rou's beautiful rosy face. She was also embarrassed, just like him.
[Second, Hold her hand]
[Gently]
"Instructor." He gently grabbed Lan Rou's hand and stunned her for a second.
Lan Rou looked at him and replied, "Y-Yes?"
[Almost there, host]
[Now, Compliment her]
"Instructor, you look beautiful."
"I-Is that so?"
"Mm, I'm lucky to have someone as beautiful as you to like me."
"I-I see... Hehe."
Lan Rou giggled and became less nervous, leaning on Baek Ain's side and touching his shoulder. They could feel the heat of each other's bodies, staring at the opposite's lips for some reason.
[Finally, leave everything to your instinct]
Baek Ain leaned to Lan Rou's side and kissed her lips, bringing her closer to him. He doesn't give her a way to escape even if she is more powerful than him.
And Lan Rou didn't fight back because she was also a virgin.
Their heavy breathing echoed all over the bathroom.
Yet, the world suddenly became black for Baek Ain.
...
...
The next day, Baek Ain opened his eyes awkwardly and saw Lan Rou sleeping on his bed. She snored slightly and laid down her head on the pillow beside him.
He could smell the floral scent of her silky bluish-silver hair.
'What happened?'
[You're too excited and fainted due to high blood pressure]
[Quite pathetic, I would say] Alicia commented with her somewhat disappointed voice.
'Fuck!' Baek Ain wanted to bury his head in the ground. But can you blame him for being too excited? That was the farthest experience he had with an actual woman.
For a virgin, that was admirable.
[Ding! You have triggered a quest]
[Name: Get rid of your virginity]
[Objective: Have sex with your beloved ones(0/1)]
[Penalty: Forever Virgin's Achievement]
[Time Limit: 30 Days]
[Reward: 2x Skill Upgrade Token(B) and 1x Random Item]
[You'll accept the quest, right?]
[Unless you're a coward-]
'Okay, okay. Shut up, Alicia.' Baek Ain accepted the quest, feeling a sting sensation in his pride. 'I might be a virgin, but I'm no coward.'
"Mm~!" Lan Rou's eyes fluttered as Baek Ain moved too much in the morning. She stretched her body and said, "Morning."
"Morning." Baek Ain responded as calmly as possible.
A silence happened between them until Lan Rou opened her mouth. "L-Let's pretend nothing happened yesterday." She said bashfully.
"Will you?"
Baek Ain was surprised and replied firmly instead, "No."
"Eh?"
"No, I won't pretend nothing happened yesterday. We are so close already, and I don't want our relationship to become awkward because of my incompetence."
"You're not..."
"Yes, I am. Instructor..."
Baek Ain grabbed Lan Rou's hand and promised, "Next time, I won't let you down."
Hearing such confidence from Baek Ain, Lan Rou unknowingly smiled and nodded in admiration. "I'll wait then." She responded with expectation.
"Here."
She handed Xiao Che's spatial ring to Baek Ain and added, "This is your reward from the mission. We have checked the content and discovered some rare herbs, weapons, and pills useful for the growth of your cultivation."
"You said a few weeks ago that you wanted to learn Alchemy, Right? Lady Feo also added some books about alchemy to help you learn it."
"Of course, we didn't give you all the content... We took some pill recipes as we must check them first, especially the one Xiao Che was about to use to defame our Auction House."
"Wow..." Baek Ain mumbled while taking the spatial ring.
"Also, this." Lan Rou gave him a grand-looking black card.
"This card is exclusive for VVIP Members of the Miteer Family. You can purchase anything under 150 million gold in the Jia Ma Empire."
Baek Ain took the black card and commented, "Money is like water for the Miteer Family, huh?"
"Pfft... It's a small sum of money compared to the damage Xiao Che could inflict on us." Lan Rou laughed in amusement.
"He's that dangerous?" He asked solemnly.
"He's that dangerous, yes."
'This world is starting to become more confusing than it should have been,' Baek Ain seemed to underestimate how critical the pill recipe in the spatial ring was.
He thought about Yao Men's pill recipes and couldn't contain his excitement. He wanted to try making pills himself.
'I wonder how this empire's economy will react if I drop high-tiered pills on the market? I mean, there is only one 6-Tier Alchemist named Gu He in this empire, no? It would cause chaos, hehe...'
