Feisty One

“Aamhf~ P-Please don’t stop!” loud cries echoed across the Golu Amethyst mine as swirling masses of shadows were cast over the walls. Light glistened against the protruding violet crystals, sweat poured in excess, and muscles clashed with repeated motions.

Pluma seemed to be enjoying the demonstration Edrick had promised her. In fact, she was proving to be quite the feisty gal as Anoteros pinned her down against the sleeping mat, claiming her body in the ‘Breeding Press’ position... Which was just what Edrick would have formerly referred to as a ‘Mating Press’.

The name was not very different compared to his past world.

By deciding to go with such a position, he inadvertently allowed Pluma to truly show how passionate she could be…

Currently, her nails were digging into his back, and her legs were locked around him in a vice grip- She was even biting into his shoulder, and it was not the playful kind. She was full-on biting into his flesh, perhaps not at full force, but certainly far more fiercely than most would.

Right now, there were several bleeding bite marks on his left shoulder, and Pluma looked like a vampire that had just finished a most delectable meal.

“Oh gods… Keep pounding me… Keep doing it… Don’t stop!”

He hadn’t even used Magic Fingers yet. Still, she was just going crazy.

Though it might also in part be due to the fact that all that biting had led her to swallowing some of his sweat and blood, which was charged with Pixie Blessing and A Succubus’s Dream... That would explain a few things, but not why she started biting in the first place. No, the proper explanation was that the usually taciturn Pluma was actually a hidden freak, and that she had secretly been yearning for him this entire time.

“How long have you been thinking about it? How long have you been lusting after your friend’s husband?” he whispered in her ear, making her dig her nail deeper into his back.

“I… I don’t want to say…” she replied in between moans as Edrick began to thrust his hips faster.

“If you want to be my maid, you’ll have to learn to never lie to me, you know?”

“Aah~ I… Since the first time I met you…” she admitted.

“Is that so?” he continued teasing her until a crest manifested over her solar plexus, a purple circle surrounding a grey bell.

Once it was in place, he didn’t hold back, thrusting powerfully one last time. Going balls deep as he flooded her rosy interior with his powerful seed, unloading what felt like liters upon liters of the white goodness. Pluma’s face froze into an expression that could only be described as drunken ecstasy, her eyes rolled upward, and teeth gritted as her body simultaneously wanted to use that incoming energy, and also just wanted to fall asleep immediately.

Edrick held Pluma in his arms, sitting up with the girl pressed against his chest. His entire body was glistening with sweat, and a bit of blood due to the excessive biting.

The noble scion petted the tomboyish girl’s head as he held her close. Both hers and Lihua’s bodies were rather muscular. Of course, it did not feel like much since Edrick had experienced the body of Yin, whose muscles could probably give a plate armour a run for its money. In comparison, her friends had normal physiques. Their techniques did not alter their bodies, so theirs were the regular muscles of young women.

There was something quite attractive about that. Firm, but still retaining a certain softness.

“Try practising your technique, Pluma” he said. The girl nodded weakly, reluctantly getting away from his protective arms and reassuring muscular body to get into the proper position required to train her cultivation technique.

Pluma had picked Dual-Searing Ji Technique, which was more complex than Lihua's Dagger-Axe Mastery, as it did not sacrifice on the basics, whilst also adding a fire affinity. With swings of her Fangtian Ji, she could summon bursts of flames, as well as heat her weapon without damaging it in the least.

Since she had begun training at the same time as Lihua and was about on par in terms of talent, she had not reached any bottleneck yet. Still, she was undeniably close to complete mastery. With some luck, she wouldn’t encounter any bottleneck and would be able to earn perfect mastery of the technique right there and then.

After all, to beginner cultivators like Lihua or Pluma, Edrick’s elixir was an incredible resource. They couldn’t even process all of it, even with the buff they gained from being his maids.

Anoteros observed her for a bit, but upon noticing that she had genuinely begun meditating and had lost awareness of what was going on around her, he extinguished the lantern and slept through the rest of the night.

When he woke up, Pluma had fallen asleep, having sneakily nestled herself in between his arm and chest, her head resting against his shoulder.

Edrick used his ability to glean knowledge about those bearing his crest and discovered that she had indeed reached perfect mastery of her technique last night. But looking through her information, the reason was obvious: She had either been very lucky or something had drawn her to a fire technique in the first place, since it seemed like she had a certain affinity for fire.

That was most likely why she hadn’t encountered any bottleneck whatsoever. She had an advantage in learning that technique compared to Lihua.

Edrick tapped her head a few times.

“Wake up and get dressed”

Then, he went back to extracting pieces of Golu Amethyst. By the time he felt satisfied with his haul, it was already noon, and the sun stood high in the sky.

He retrieved some dried meat jerky Linmin had packed for him, passed some over to Pluma, and filled his stomach before making the journey back to the hollow hill.

Pluma was looking a little pale, however.

“Don’t tell me you are worrying about it now?”

“How could I not?! That’s… I lost my mind! How could I do this to Hui? And-”

“Shhh” he said. But instead of pressing his finger against his lips, he smacked and grabbed her backside, which was very efficient in making her stop talking.

“Hui is well aware of what maids do in my residence... By the way, Lihua was hired just before you, so you don’t have to worry”

“Hui wanted her friends to have a taste as well. She’s quite a great friend, isn’t she?”

He squeezed her buttocks harder.

“Stop worrying and focus on the realm. Also, shouldn’t you be more concerned with the new technique you’ll pick? Concentrate on that, it’s an order from your dear master…”

Pluma nodded. For some reason, she felt like everything he said could only be the truth, and that he could not possibly be lying to her. This was an advantage of the master-maid bond.

“I understand, M-Master…”

Though it would feel weird to call him Master from now on…
