BXBX NOVEL Chapter 25 - Chi Part 2
"Well, Chi, it\'s nice to meet you. But umm… Can you let go of my hand?" Yuki\'s hand was being gripped tightly by Chi\'s hand, causing her to feel slightly awkward.
"Ahh! Sorry..." Chi blushed as she lowered her head. In her mind, she was looking for a place to dig a hole and climb into. She never acted this way before! But at the same time, she was cursing Yuki\'s character for being too handsome.
"It\'s fine. Anyway, with your level, you will not be able to move around easily. So why don\'t you team with me for a while? I am making my way north to do a quest, but you can tag along and gain some experience and level up. By the time I am done, you should be plenty high enough for the area. Also, take these." Yuki opened a trade window with Chi. She put all the items that she looted from the man and then 10 gold on top of it to help Chi out. "The items are from the guy just now, and the gold is so you can get some equipment to match your level as you level up."
"This…. I can\'t..." Chi was hesitant to accept anything. She felt flattered that the man in front of her was willing to give her anything. But she also felt bad since 10 gold was not something easy to come by this early in the game, not to mention the items belonged to him for killing the man.
"You can. Trust me, I got plenty." Yuki smiled and reassured Chi, who finally accepted the items and gold. Yuki then sent her a party invite allowing the two to talk in a special party chat where only they could hear each other. "Before we go, let\'s sit here for a bit."
"Huh, why?" Chi was confused as to why they would be waiting around.
"Come with me and watch." Yuki said as she grabbed Chi\'s hand and pulled her behind some bushes. Chi became nervous and was wondering if Yuki was about to make a move on her, but when she saw Yuki squat behind a bush and turn around waving for her to sit with her, she knew that Yuki had no such intentions allowing her to feel relieved. "Don\'t make a sound. We will wait here for a while and see if he returns to his corpse."
Only now did Chi understand. "Do you plan to kill him again?"
Yuki gave a cheeky smile as she nodded her head: "I mean he tried to molest you, which means he must be punished. How could one time be enough? Plus, wouldn\'t you like to beat him for a while?"
Chi gave a faint smile and nodded her head. She did want to beat that asshole! "Yes, I do."
"Then, I will hold him down while you beat on him. You can take your time as you do it." Yuki could tell Chi really wanted revenge. She could understand this very much. No one would want such a thing to happen to them and not be able to get revenge for themselves after.
"Meow!" Nergal, who had been sleeping this entire time, stood up and stretched its little legs. It somehow did not fall the entire time Yuki was jumping around and beating that man just now.
"Aw, a cute kitty!" Chi was instantly dawn towards Nergal and reached her hand out to pat it, only for Nergal to wave its tail, smacking her hand away.
"Pfft!" Yuki couldn\'t hold back her laughter. She found it highly amusing, especially with Chi\'s expression just now that looked half heartbroken and stunned at the same time.
Chi lowered her head in embarrassment as she puffed out her cheeks. \'He doesn\'t need to laugh, does he?\'
"Nergal, be nice, let her pet you." Yuki said, pulling Nergal off the top of her head. Nergal let out a meow and looked at Yuki before looking back at Chi before finally meowing again in submission.
Yuki then handed Nergal over to Chi, whose eyes glowed in excitement as she cuddled Nergal in her arms. "It\'s so cute!"
Yuki saw that Chi\'s eyes were of a blue azurite color. She found them to be very pretty. Chi noticed Yuki looking at her and asked: "Is something wrong?"
"No, I just felt your character had very pretty eyes." Yuki answered nonchalantly. She completely forgot she was a man right now and did not realize her words could be taken as her flirting with Chi.
Chi blushed and lowered her head, smiling as she said: "Thank you."
The two talked about this and that for a while when Yuki finally noticed someone coming over. "He\'s here, I think."
Chi instantly went quiet. She had completely forgotten about the man from before since she was so caught up in talking with Yuki. In real life, she could not talk like this with others so freely because she had no real friends. Talking with Yuki just now felt like she could finally be herself, even if it was only in game.
The man from before walked into view from a small path and looked around a bit before running over to his corpse and picking up the brown sack next to it. "That fucker! He really took my items!?"
"And you really came back?" The man froze when he heard a voice coming from behind him. Before he could even turn around, a sword was pressed up against his throat.
"Wha-What do you want!? You already killed me and took my items!" The man yelled.
"What do I want? Do you think after assaulting a girl, you would be able to just do whatever you want? Sorry, unlike the real world, this world is not as forgiving. Now then Chi, the vines we cut." The man had a bad feeling and wanted to kill himself, but Yuki swatted his sword away. Chi handed Yuki the vines and watched as Yuki tied the man up.
The man looked at Yuki then at Chi and sneered: "So you used your body to get revenge on me, yeah?"
Chi frowned as she walked over and stomped on the man\'s face. "Not everyone is a scumbag like you." After saying this, she went to town, kicking the man in the face and body over and over. Her footprint could be seen all over the man\'s body. The man\'s Health slowly lowered, and when he was just about to die, Yuki force fed him a potion causing him to regain 70% of his health once more.
"You!" The man was so angry that he wasn\'t able to die and get things over with. He never thought that Yuki would force feed him a potion! Although this was a VR game, he still felt a bit of pain. It was nothing like what one would feel in real life, but it still gave the sensation of pain when hit or stabbed to add some realism.
Yuki formed a big smile on her face as she knelt down next to the man. "Why did you think I would let you die that easily? My new friend here has yet to vent her frustrations. If we let you die, you wouldn\'t come back. So sit here like a good boy and let her beat on you for a while. Don\'t worry, I got plenty of potions to keep you alive. Maybe this will be a lesson for you so that from now on you will not try to take advantage of girls."
