Chapter 15 - The Second Knight

  Emilia didn’t know what she was doing or why she was acting like a little kid, but it just felt right! Most probably the smokey beast had messed with her mind or something, that had to be it! The cute tiger wouldn’t do anything to her! Why? She didn’t know but it wouldn’t!

  She stopped her hands from touching the tiger, after all, she didn’t want to make it dust! Well, she still had to try and see how it works with living beings, but not with a cute tiger!

  She nodded to herself before she felt something on her back, the tiger had moved so fast that she wasn’t behind it at all, now she was standing right in front of it.

  “Your name was… Iko right? It looks like she’s scared of you” said the tiger, but she wasn’t named Iko! Her name was Emilia!

  “I know, but I don’t know why, I think I'm more approachable than a big bag of fur” said the smokey figure, so its name was Iko? When she gets home, she’ll make sure she is hunted down for scaring her!

  She then falls unconscious after the smokey figure extended a tendril when she wasn’t looking, it grabbed her neck and throwed her to the floor face first.

  This annoying girl… is she a 12-year-old in the body of a 17-year-old?

  Iko turned her head over to Rakikas after sighing, just for the tiger to look at her weirdly.

  “What?”

  “Didn’t you say you wanted to use her to have revenge? Why do that then?” she said, lifting her corrupted paw pointing at the childish woman.

  “That isn’t enough to kill her, and she was annoying me” said Iko.

  “She didn’t do anything yet…” she said, but Iko didn’t answer, the silence was loud “Whatever, just take the corruption off of me so I can go back to my den”

  “Oh, about that… I don’t know how” Iko answered while looking away from the tiger “But before you go on a rampage and I become a puddle of blood let me try if this theory I have works!” she said while looking at the tiger again with an innocent smile on her face, she really hoped it looked innocent.

  “Fine just do it quickly, this thing still hurts, and a lot” Said Rakikas with a heave sigh, while lifting her paw.

  Iko then got near, but… “Can you put it a just a bit down? I can’t get over there…” the tiger was still massive, there was no way for her to get to her paw without flying, and she wouldn’t be able to concentrate if she was flying.

  “Oh, sure” said the tiger while putting her paw near the ground, enough for Iko to suddenly stab her with her tail.

  Ignoring defenses finally works! Bless whatever god fixed it.

  Iko started to absorb all the corrupted blood she found inside the tiger paw, after finding a lot of corrupted beings and herself as an example, she ended with the idea that it all starts with the blood that’s corrupted, so if she absorbed the blood, then the transformation should revert!

  When she moved her head to see the paw, she could see that she was correct, the corruption was indeed reverting, all being absorbed by her tail, more lunch for later and gaining a favor from the strongest in the jungle! Even if said strongest was looking at her with deadly eyes.

  This little piece of shit! Rakikas was about to kill the little lizard the moment she felt the sharp tail of the dragon stab her paw, but then the filthy energy started to disappear, so she could only eat her pride and resist the pain she felt from her blood being forcefully being absorbed out of her, it hurt when so big amounts of blood were forcefully directing into a specific place, not following their normal path, if it was someone lower level than 100, they would probably die because of the weird way their blood would start to flow, she was looking at the woman for is she tried to do anything funny, but she didn’t, her face was calm with a innocent smile, to innocent for her own good, she was defiantly hiding something, but what was it?

  So she kept looking at the woman, at her shining purple eyes that seemed to look like the stars in the night, her horns, that looked so well taken care of that even while covered in the filthy energy, they still looked pretty, and her-

  *Thump*

  She hit her head with a tree that was next to her, breaking not only the tree but also a couple more that were around.

  What was that…?

  Get the fuck out my sight, what even is a knight… and what do you mean I developed admiration towards her?! That is ridiculous, she is not even level 30! Could it be a side effect of her majesty taking care of my wounds? W-wait, did I just refer to her as “Majesty” …?

  She hit her head with another tree, also breaking the one's around, again.

  I just need to wait for her to finish this, and I just have to go back to sleep, I can forget about these embarrassing thoughts.

  Iko was scared, the tiger just broke at least 100 meters of trees with her head alone, twice.

  Had she done something wrong? Was she going to die when she finishes absorbing the blood? Those thoughts went through her mind, when she finished absorbing the blood, she took out her tail of the paw of the apparently angry tiger.

  “Uhm… I’m done in the paw, you don’t mind if I do your tail now right?”

  The tiger seemed to be lost in her thoughts as she suddenly started blinking as if she didn’t know where she was, and when her eyes landed on Iko, her fur seemed to become softer for some reason?

  “Uh sure go ahead” she said as she laid down so it would be easier for Iko to get to her tail.

  Iko jumped and landed on the back of the tiger, and indeed, the fur was soft, to soft for her to not just throw herself onto the tail, it had corruption, so it must feel even comfier! That action apparently got a little surprise from the tiger as her body suddenly stiffed.

  “D-don’t do that!” Screamed the tiger apparently ashamed.

  “S-sorry!” Said Iko as she let go of her tail and with her own tail stabbed down on it, she was ready to find lot’s of the delicious corrupted blood but there was nothing, nothing at all, not even normal blood.

  “Uh Rakikas…” Iko called.

  “What?” she answered while growling.

  “You have no blood on your tail” said Iko as if nothing.

  “Excuse me?” said Rakikas moving her head to see Iko.

  “There is nothing, no normal blood, no corrupted blood, there is nothing” Said Iko while looking for a place to hide if the beast decided to go on a rampage.

  “So, you are saying my tail is forever in that state?” asked the third strongest being she has ever meet, not counting the many eyed woman.

  “M-maybe not forever but for the time being” Said Iko, it hurt her pride to act like this, but she didn’t have much choose if she wanted to survive.

  The tiger stared at her, its deadly eyes watching her closely, it almost felt as if it was watching her soul.

  The tiger sighed “I guess there is no helping it, it doesn’t hurt anymore either way” said the tiger that for some reason was not mad at her “Get off my back” she growled.

  “Of course!” Iko jumped down faster than when she tried to go after Jaul.

  “So, you will return to your den or something?” Said Iko as she turned her body to look at the tiger, but there was only a blinding ball of light instead, and Iko only had a single thought.

  MY EYES!

  While Iko was trying to heal Rakikas tail

  Her feet are small, the way she walks is gentle and worthy of a princess, even the way she hugged my tail was gentle… WHAT AM I THINKING?! Nonononono… what is happening to my mind?! How can I be thinking that about a fucking mosquito?! Is not like she has a marvelous body, thought I don’t know the criteria to be beautiful as a human, but she most likely is taking in comparison the winged bitch and the child-woman, the child-woman was the worst… how dare she take the attention of her majesty?! Wait… FUCK NO, OH FUCK NO! WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME?!

  FUCK OFF!

  The mind of Rakikas was on shambles, how could she think so positively over a lizard? One not even level 30! And why does the system need to tell her whenever she developed any of those things!

  “Uh Rakikas…” she got caught by surprise by the woman, but she couldn’t let that show.

  “What?” she needed to remain calm… she couldn’t lose control over herself, she was the [King] of this jungle!

  “You have no blood in your tail” Said the cute lizard with concerned eyes. Wait what?

  “Excuse me?” had she heard right? No blood? Then how did she move her tail?!

  “There is nothing, no normal blood, no corrupted blood, there is nothing” Said the tiny lizard.

  “So, you are saying my tail is forever in that state?” Maybe I can have a piece of her majesty for eternity then! NONONO, Stop thinking that kind of things!

  “M-maybe not forever but for the time being” The cute lizard is having problem talking… how cute~ NONONO.

  She sighed “I guess there is no helping it, it doesn’t hurt anymore either way” It’s warm even…

  “Get off my back” The cute lizard said something, but she wasn’t paying attention, the same notification as before was resounding in her mind.

  I do want… but why… why do I want to serve her?! How did I learn what a knight is in half an hour?! But… protecting that small body covered in the filthy but somehow warm energy… and I can’t let her get her revenge alone, I also want to kill that man.

  With a mental nod, she accepted the offer the system gave her.

  As her body was devoured by a shining light, she only had 1 thought.

  Who was the bastard that took my place as the first knight of my mistress?! If I ever met him, or her, I’ll show the mistress I’m better, there is no way I’ll ever lose to anyone when following her majesty!

  Everything was dark for Emilia, she lost conscious when the mist monster, there was no way it wasn’t a monster, had thrown her face first to the ground, she was kind of glad because her mind stopped acting like a small kid, but she was still mad the method it used to do it, would her powers work on it either way? Like you can’t really touch mist… like what touches her hand would disappear, but the rest would stay?

  Good to know, I guess. She didn’t know how long more was she going to be trapped inside her own mind.

  Wait… THAT WAS THE HEIR OF WHATEVER YOU WERE SAYING?!

  How bad is my luck… she is probably going to kill me and eat me!

  She sighed in relief Thanks the gods…

  Fuck you.

  Emilia was about to answer but she felt her eyes opening, when she managed to open them, she was almost blinded by the sun, she looked around and the first thing she saw was a beast kin that had 2 small orange feline ears with orange hair with a little of black, her tail was white and black, not following the color pattern the rest of her body followed she was also completely naked, throwing herself onto another beast kin that had horns and wings, and even a tail! For some reason she shuddered when she saw the tail, and this one liked a lot purple and black, and a little white by the look of it.
