Chapter 7 - 7 New Friends? (2/2)

He went from being just 5'10 to just over 6'0. His weight also decreased by several kilos despite the increase in height and his need for food rose with it. Needing more calories depending on how long he uses his Noble Phantasm for.

Taking another sip of his mixed alcoholic beverage, a sensual voice resounded in Gray's ear. Sending both shivers, and a dangerous feeling creeping up his spine.

”Don't you think it's a little early for that?”.

He suppressed his instincts and his ”want” to back away from the voice, and turned around. And expressionless look on his face.

”..... Is there a law against me drinking this early?”.

The woman in front of Gray was undoubtedly the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Barbara Gordon could match he level of beauty, but was like comparing a still developing rose to a completely mȧturė one. The latter was by far more ripe.

Smooth, unblemished tanned skin. Sinfully mȧturė body with ample curves in all the right places. An angelic face, completely contrasting her devilish body. Luscious red lips, which she licked as Gray observed her coming closer towards him.

She waved her arms disarmingly and leaned over the bar counter beside Gray. Pushing up her large bust by putting her arms beneath them.

Placing a single finger on the edge of her lip she spoke.

”I usually find that people that drink this early are about to do something either extremely stupid or extremely dangerous. Am I right?”.

Every action was aimed at drawing Gray's attention. The other men and women hanging around the poolside area all gazed at the beautiful woman's behind. Her skintight black dress emphasized all of her ȧssets. And she knew exactly wanted she wanted to do with them.

Every Heroic Spirit in Gray's soul gave him some sort of warning that almost made him want to leap back and manifest themselves.

Even Assassin, who normally even refused to be called out, wanted to be set free and installed. It seemed that he possessed the greatest connection to this woman that any of the other Servants in his possession.

”Both”.

The beautiful tanned woman smiled at Gray's response and nodded at the barkeep who passed her an unknown drink the same color as blood.

She raised the glass to Gray who, despite Assassins, incessant warnings not to, clinked his own glass against the beautiful tanned woman's.

He gazed straight into her gorgeous green eyes and the corner of his mouth raised slightly.

”The name's Gray. May I know the name of my new friend?”.

The Servant that walked the boundary between life and death tried its best to force Gray to resist the charm of this devilishly angelic woman. A loud ancient bell resounded throughout Gray's mind, snapping him out of the trance the woman had put him under and he leaped back several feat, a demonic blue flames covering most of his body.

The beautiful tanned woman smiled with a power that could cause the downfall of a nation. All the other people lounging around the pool area vanished and several dozen armed black clothed men took their places.

She stepped forward and her beautiful long legs crept through the slit in her dress.

”My name is Talia al Ghul. And I am here to offer you something Gray.... or should I say Rider?”.
