FVN Rumour
Rumour
When Linfeng truly woke up, he found himself lying with his back against the grass wearing nought but his birthday suit. Mala was sleeping not too far to the young cultivator’s right–And Yen'mila… She was busying herself gobbling down Linfeng’s rod. Said rod had long since lost any form of hardness, but the female cultivator did not seem to mind playing with the limp equipment.She soon noticed that Linfeng had awoken.
“Oh, hello there!”
“What the hell…”
Linfeng was torn between asking what had happened or what was happening, but ended up saying nothing as Yen'mila stood up.
“You have my thanks, Linfeng. Thanks to your valiant efforts, I am finally free to leave this place. This tree, which I have been bound to for so long… It is time to say goodbye to it. I have successfully become half-dryad, possessing the advantages without the downsides… I have truly become an elite cultivator!”
She laughed with her hands on her hips as Linfeng struggled to sit up. His entire body was aching for some reason. He hadn’t felt so beaten up since he had had the misfortune of meeting Anoteros.
‘System… What the hell happened? I barely remember anything after I first arrived here…’
‘...Why… Why the hell did you feel the need to use my body to do it with this woman?!’
‘Right… I hear you, but what does Yin crossed with nature energy do for me, exactly?’
‘Right… But she still Viotted Mala, and made me participate in it!’
Linfeng wanted to sigh very loudly, but expanding his lungs too much hurt his ribs right now.
‘You want me to keep her around? But she seems a bit… Unstable’
‘Where the hell did you get this idea from?’
‘I doubt things work like this…’
‘Right…’
He was seeking strength to free Fingmi from the grasp of Edrick Lucien Anoteros. Indeed, the completion of his goal was too important for him to hesitate on such a matter. Even if Yen'mila was a despicable person, she did have value to him…
“Say… What is your name?”
Linfeng might have heard it during the whole debacle, but if he did, he had forgotten it.
“My name is Yen'mila, darling~”
Linfeng coughed into his fist.
“You want to explore the world, right? What do you say about joining Mala and me? We’ll be moving around a fair bit, and we could use some help”
“Ooh~ Are you…? Heheh… Sure! But I hope that the three of us will be enjoying a… Close relationship”
Yen'mila licked her teeth and lips as she said this.
“I don’t have any objections to that”
‘That’s what I want too anyway’
“Alright then! Let’s get the hell out of this place. Is the twinkish cutie awake?”
Mala was only barely waking up, and he was still covered in gunk.
The former bandit looked around, his eyes blinked more often than normal.
“...Uuh… Where the hell are we, Linfeng? And why do I look like thirty men performed a Lagneiefest on me?!”
At the moment, Mala was remembering what had happened clearly.
“It’s a bit of a long story… Let’s get you cleaned up and dressed, alright?”
The group exited the underground, one member stronger than when they came in.
“Yen'mila, is there a miraculous healing herb in this forest?”
“No, why do you ask?”
“That’s the reason so many bandits were here to begin with. I thought you were the one who had started the rumour to bring them to you”
“I wish! But I couldn’t do anything but wait for suitable sources of nourishment to show up on my doorstep. I have been controlling some native plant creatures to bring me things, but even then, it would have taken me much longer to wrap things up if not for so many people showing up”
“I see”
‘Who the hell started this rumour then, and why?’
