Chapter 213: A Hard-To-Refuse Offer (1/2)
Before Calvin could process the information contained within the system notifications, Grace forcefully dismissed them as she said.
”You can take a look at them later.
”Your formatting sure is confusing. Can you at least word these things carefully?” Calvin couldn't help but criticize.
”Sure, sure, I'll remember your feedback.” Grace dismissed his words with a nod as she dragged him into the room, ”What do you think?”
”What do I think of this room?”
”Yup!” Grace beamed with a smile.
”It's fantastic. I could live my entire life in this room, as long as I have internet, of course...” Calvin approved with a thumbs-up.
”I'm glad that it's to your liking. I wouldn't want my instructor to hate our place of learning.” Grace chuckled.
”Yeah, that makes sense... However, I don't think that I have received my reward for defeating you in Grand Turismo earlier.”
”Ah, yeah, about that... I still haven't thought of what kind of reward should I give you. I'm sure that you already know how sensitive the politics of the Seven Gods and Goddesses by now, right? I think you already know why I've given you that quest for the Village of Tulog.”
”It's to knock the Goddess of Pestilence and Famine down a notch, right?”
”Yup. That's the main goal.”
”Wait, so the main goal wasn't to cleanse and rescue the villagers of Tulog?”
”What?! Of course, that's the main goal! Pisti is just a side-chick! How could I possibly abandon my people? Yes, that's the reason why I sent you to the Village of Tulog.”
”You know what, Grace? You don't actually sound convincing...”
”...” Grace didn't know what to say.
”Ahem, anyway. I really have to go back now. I want to sleep for a few hours more.”
”So, that's why you were complaining when I dragged you here...” Grace raised smirked, ”I didn't expect for you to actually take that girl as your wife, are you that kind of a person who would do it with anyone if there's a hole?”
”Of course, not. I'm not that low...” Calvin chuckled.
”I see, I see...” Grace stared at him in a renewed light. ”So you also noticed the abnormality within that so-called wife of yours.”
”Yeah...” Calvin didn't deny it, ”Let's not talk about Charlotte, okay? Just give me my rewards, so I can get out of here and have some sleep.”
”What's the rush? I'll still give you what you deserve, no matter what.” Grace dismissed him as she continued, ”Are you going to take advantage of Charlotte's abnormality?”
”Is that why you pitied her and took her as your wife?”
”So you could absorb that thing from her and become even stronger. Seriously, Calvin... You really are someone that believes in 'the result justifies the means' eh?”
”What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I take advantage of h—”
”Oh, really I'm wrong?”
Grace interrupted his words, ”Then, in that case, will you have sex with me?”
”Yeah, you're wrong... She might ha—what?!” Calvin almost keeled over from shock.
”Are you serious?”
Calvin stared at Grace as if he was looking at a monster, ”Did I hear you correctly?”
”Yes, you did...” Grace playfully smiled, ”I knew that you were circulating a dual cultivation technique when you are doing it with that so-called wife of yours. Do you not feel guilty taking away something so precious from her?”
”I'm not taking it away from her!”
Calvin suddenly grew enraged, ”I am helping her suppress it!”
”Suppress it? What a joke...”
”It's her true nature! It's impossible for you to suppress it with your puny strength!”
”If one day—Charlotte becomes a monster and attacks Ashmelion—are you confident that you'll be able to stop her?” Grace asked.
”No...” Calvin shook his head, ”I am not that powerful, yet... But I'm slowly getting there.”
”It would be too late by then,” Grace shook her head, she clicked her tongue and asked, ”In your previous timeline, was there a mention of Ashmelion getting destroyed?”
Calvin's eyes repeatedly blinked, ”Nope...”
”There you go. That's the answer.”
”You're the one who started all of these, Calvin.”
”If you didn't save her that day, she would've died in the hands of those gangsters. If you didn't save her that day, then she would've been unable to nurture that nature that's inside of her into something even greater.”
”But since you made her avoid her fate of death, you are now handed over this hot potato that you must control and contain if you don't want to see the destruction of Ashmelion,” Grace revealed the worry lingering in the deep recesses of Calvin's mind that he always tried his best to hide whenever he was facing Charlotte.
”Fuck...” Calvin couldn't help but violently curse, ”Is this your payback? Are you trying to get back to me after I've stomped you down the ground in a game of Grand Turismo?”
”Of course not, I'm not that childish. I'm just trying to help you, Calvin...”
”You want to get stronger, right? Then, I shall give you a reward.”
”Since you know how to use a dual cultivation technique...”
”Why not use it with me?”
”Surely, you will be able to extract more power from a Goddess like me with that selfish dual cultivation technique of yours than from your wife who is currently nothing but a mortal?”
Grace moved closer to the bed and started to remove her clothes.
She removed her gloves, bent over, and then removed her heels...
She then sat on the bed with her legs crossed over each other. The stockings that she was wearing consumed the entirety of her thighs and legs as she sat there with her dark amethyst eyes looking amorously over to Calvin.
”Is this the reward that you're going to give me for the duel?” Calvin asked.
”Take a guess.” Grace winked at him and said, ”Will you come over here, or what?”
Calvin steeled his resolve.
He stared right into Grace's dark amethyst eyes and a smirk suddenly appeared on his face, ”It's an honor for a mortal to do it with the Goddess of Compassion and Light!” Calvin removed the clothes on his upper body and walked over to the bed.
He pushed Grace underneath him and raised his hand to hold her right thigh.
”Ah!” Grace let out a yelp.
The voice that came out from her mouth sounded so sexy that Calvin couldn't help but tickle her more.
”So, you like it here? Let me rub it more.”
”No... Stop it!” Grace protested as her cheeks became flushed red out of embarrassment.
She was the Goddess of Compassion and Light, the subject of worship in the eyes of countless mortals, but at this moment... She was being pinned down by a mortal. But not because she didn't want it, it was because she offered herself to Calvin on a silver platter.
And Calvin was definitely not a greenhorn when it comes to sex.
It wasn't his intention to do it with Grace, but since she gave the offer, how could he refuse?
Furthermore, Grace was right...
Using that dual cultivation technique with a Goddess like her would definitely give him more power than using it with Charlotte.
This was why...
”Don't mind me if I do...”
Calvin traced Grace's thigh as his hand slowly approached over to her upper thigh.
Grace tightly closed her eyes.
But before Calvin could touch her most precious place, he suddenly stopped and laughed.
