Chapter 106 - Acquiring the Blind Bandit (2/2)
A sharp voice giggled at her own insider joke while Nik slowly stood up with a frustrated groan. He was barely scratched, but still, the feeling was comfortable. The Earth Bender— he presumed— definitely had a delicate control, unlike the brutes that loved to throw boulders. To soften the ground to shatter his momentum before pushing him 'up' through the ground itself, the only thing Nik could utter was— formidable.
'But... it's not all that bad.' Nik's smile threatened to split his face in half, this time, unknown to Nik, the smile was especially malevolent. His mind immediately formed countless plans to counter an Earth Bender when suddenly a small figure zoomed towards his direction.
Even in the darkest hours, that particular figure seemed to be immune to darkness as her body glowed unnaturally. Even with the mind-numbing speed, the girl's hair remained still and her pure white robes failed to flutter.
”Virya?”
Nik blurted unconsciously before Virya stopped in front of Nik in her tiny pixie form and nodded at him gratefully.
”I think that experience is called— napping— right?”
She grinned, for the first time in forever and immediately floated next to Nik's cheek and let her especially tiny lips peck his cheek.
”Thank you for letting me experience such a feeling.”
'That wasn't my intention... but whatever.'
Nik sighed as he mentally made a note to never underestimate non-human lifeforms and never operate under the delusion that the method applied on humans could also work on non-humans. But, Virya wasn't even finished yet.
”Now! What was that earlier feeling, Nik!” She spoke hastily as her body grew into its original size while her soft cheeks seemed to be flushed in excitement.
”I never kissed... but that was amazing! I felt warm in my chest and lower useless regions and that moist sensation....
Does Pavāka feel the same way?”
She questioned hastily while Nik understood that without any living beings capable of ploughing a spirit, her nether regions were indeed useless. Without replying, Nik placed his hands on her cheeks and smiled.
”Maybe she does. But believe me, I'll demonstrate that your lower region is one of the most important treasures in the world.”
He spoke before jumping without any thoughts, a wise decision for a spike immediately emerged from his previous location.
Since Nik's assaulter could attack him even in the dark, Nik never considered himself hidden. While Virya's appearance took him. y surprise, it would have been foolish to lower his guard.
”Tch!”
A soft, irritated snort echoed from the surrounding region while Nik kept observing the region while stabilising himself on a branch.
”Why is that girl interrupting us? Is she another bandit?”
Nik shook his head and pointed at the top of his head. Letting Virya fight an Earth Bender would seal— her— fate. But that would be counterproductive. He simply wished to enter the city as stealthily as possible and an Earth Bender would get the job done.
Now that Virya had confirmed the gender of the assaulter, Nik didn't think much before mentally adding another partner while grinning.
With Virya and this newcomer, Nik only had one more to go. Surprisingly, he had always counted Katara as his partner.
Although Nik wasn't a fan of blind dates, the newcomer had definitely piqued his interest. The only thing that remained was to check the 'assets' before transferring them under his name.
”Where is she?”
If given a chance, Nik would always love to reduce his own workload. So, without much thought, he whispered to Virya.
”There!”
Virya pointed at a particular location, a little far from Nik's earlier estimates, somewhat near the camp as Nik grinned maliciously.
Without waiting any longer, he shot towards the sneaky assaulter.

A/N: Previously, I had planned almost 30+ chapters for the avatar world, but then I thought, that no sane person would actually wait for the unknown heroines while completing missions.
After all, If I were in Nik's place, I would have already taken 10 women and returned.
Now, in almost 13 chapters, Nik would return back to the system space.
The confirmed partner list is:
Pavāka, Azula, Mai, Karna, Yue, June, Virya, Katara, Toph and Ty Lee
I apologise to all the Suki fans.
