885 Who“s the Prey?

“What do you want to bet on?” Beto was very talented in magic and had always been his teacher’s favorite. However, he was also snarky and competitive for the same reason, and his social skills were no better than those of Antec, who only liked to hide in dark corners and manipulate dreams. So, he asked Furan, showing no lack of confidence.

Furan touched the sapphire brooch on her chest, and her white dress was dyed in dreamy colors by the hazy brightness. “Don’t you always like my ‘Mermaid’s Tear’? If I lose the bet, it will be yours.”

It was a level-eight senior-rank item. Even though Beto was a legend’s student, he couldn’t help but swallow hard. “Really?”

His teacher, the Lord of Elements, was good at alchemy, but he certainly did not create items for the students often.

Beto indeed had several senior-rank items, but none of them could compare to the brooch, Mermaid’s Tear. Not only did it boast powerful spells, but it could also significantly improve the effects of meditation and the performance of water element users. Beto had been yearning for the brooch for a long time!

However, Furan’s teacher was the famous “Stellar Mentor”. It was barely possible for him to steal it.

“Have I ever not fulfilled my words?” Furan was peaceful and beautiful, but she talked like a man.

“What if I lose?” Although he was delighted, as a sorcerer, Beto still asked cautiously.

Furan snorted. “You’re like a chick. So petty.”

“You!” Because of an accident in body modification, Beto’s voice was high and did not sound like a regular male. There was no way to heal it for now. So, he hated it most when other people mocked him for not being a man.

Furan combed her hair. She couldn’t have been more beautiful and charming when her ice fingers brushed on her soft black hair. She looked at the front and said, “If you lose, you will announce in the next meeting of our teachers that you love me.”

The legendary sorcerers who were close to each other had been meeting often to discuss the situation and exchange magic knowledge. Sometimes, they also brought their favorite students, both to show off and to broaden the students’ horizons.

Beto gasped hard. It would be very humiliating to announce that he loved Furan in front of so many legends. All of them were aware of Furan’s sexual orientation, but they did not really care about it.

“Then, I will decline you brutally.” Furan smiled brilliantly. “How about it? Do you want a bet? You should be better than the coward Antec, shouldn’t you?”

Stimulated by Furan, Beto snorted. “My humiliation in exchange for a level-eight item. The bet seems in my favor. Furan, are you so confident in yourself?”

“It’s just a countryside chick who hasn’t seen anything. She’s easy to be captured.” Furan sipped the strange beverage. She was glowing now that she found a target.

Dewey, a student of the Lord of Abyss, who had a crush on Furan, turned around and talked to a pair of twins, turning a blind eye to his two self-willed companions.

At this moment, the gate was opened, and Fernando walked in holding Antec’s arm.

Antec’s face was red, and his back was straight, perhaps due to his excitement, or maybe because it had been rigidified. In Beto’s eyes, he was just being cocky.

For the first time, Antec enjoyed the introduction part. “This is Beto, you’ve already met him. This is Furan. She’s the Stellar Mentor’s student, and she’s good at divinity.”

He was hinting Fernando to not cross the line in case Furan noticed anything.

“This is Dewey, the Lord of Abyss’ student. His body has been completely modified into an amalgamation of demons. Johnny and Kavins are twins. They are both the Demigod-lich’s students.” Antec introduced the central persons in the group.

Johnny and Kavins looked very familiar. They seemed to be only teenagers. Black-haired and black-eyed, they couldn’t have looked more innocent.

Fernando secretly crossed the names that Antec just introduced in his heart. They were all legends’ students. It was unlikely that they would leave their teachers for Holm at such a moment. Therefore, he might as well pay attention to the sorcerers around who were talented but did not have a great background.

As the student of a legend, Antec only introduced the people who deserved his introduction. In the end, he pointed at Fernando and said, “This is Nando from Holm. She’s a senior-rank sorcerer good at elemental spells.”

“Is this your date or fiancée-to-be?” Furan suddenly interjected. Her voice was crisp and sweet, but her tone was not exactly expected of a lady.

Antec choked on his own saliva. Coughing for a moment, he said, “We grew up together…”

The indirect answer fitted his usual image very well, so nobody was suspicious. Johnny chuckled. “What a beautiful lady.”

He appeared to be a boy, but his voice was old and coarse. A rotten soul seemed to be residing inside the elven body.

“Thank you.” Fernando bowed with a brilliant smile intentionally, and as he expected, he caught Furan’s glittering eyes.

After some chit chat, Fernando brought up a new topic. “I’m told that your teachers were all involved in the two battles of legends. I wonder, how is ‘God’s Guard’ like exactly?”

As unworldly as I thought… Beto mocked in his heart and said, “God’s Guard should be a space-time defensive spell. By twisting space and time, the target to be protected is placed in an intangible place. If the attacker does not understand the mystery of space and time, they cannot hit the target however powerful the attack is. At that time, my teacher…”

The intelligence of such an extent was not anything confidential in their circle. So, Beto, Johnny, and Furan added the things they learned from their respective teachers.

Fernando, on the other hand, listened so attentively that his red eyes glittered.

“Look, it’s just a countryside chick. Innocent, naive, enthusiastic, and simple,” Furan said to Beto in the telepathic bond with a smile.

Beto snorted. “However, it also means that she is conservative and not easy to seduce. Don’t play tough.”

“I always know how to deal with such inexperienced countryside chicks. All I need to do is to let her feel the strange happiness before she realizes it.” Furan moved her fingers, as if she were in a great appetite.

“Don’t lose your reputation,” Beto said and thought that he could mock Antec even if he lost the bet.

Under Fernando’s intentional direction, the details of the two legendary battles were extracted and saved in his head. Suddenly, Furan rose and stretched her arms gracefully and charmingly. “It’s not fun to discuss those things at all. This is a party. We need to dance.”

The moment she said that, the other female sorcerers who had been watching her immediately created warm melodies with magic.

She walked to Fernando with a smile, and with her eyes glittering, she said, “Nando, don’t hang around those boring men. Let’s go dance, shall we?”

Huh? Fernando did not expect Furan to be so active. He looked at Antec next to him subconsciously, which further convinced Furan, Beto, and the rest of them that he was a countryside chick who had never experienced anything before.

“I would like to invite your date to dance. I’m sure you are okay with that, aren’t you?” Furan looked at Antec with a faint smile.

Antec seemed scared of her. He nodded. “Of course.”

“Then, beautiful lady, let’s dance.” Furan took Fernando’s hand and ran to the center, bold and straightforwardly, not asking for Fernando’s permission at all.

Then, she grabbed Fernando’s waist, forcing him to dance right next to her.

“Are you not scared that Furan will steal your date?” Beto asked, grimacing.

Antec smiled in embarrassment. “Nando is not that kind of girl.”

The song was hot, and the two bodies that were next to each other were even hotter. Fernando had never experienced a female body in such a way before. His clumsiness made Furan giggle nonstop. Then, her mouth stopped next to Fernando’s ear, and she said in a low voice, “You are really beautiful!”

“So are you…” Fernando replied sincerely.

Then, he sensed a shivering ecstasy from his ear, as if he had been electrified. After that, his mouth was sealed by the pink lips.

Hehe. Very fresh, pure, and easy to provoke! Furan kissed and thought gloatingly.

Then, she sensed that Nando’s hands were holding her tightly and responded passionately.

I won!

She thought delightedly at first, but her libido was immediately ignited by the passionate beauty in her arms. She tried very hard to calm down and say, “Let’s go to my room.”

“Look at that!” Beto almost whistled. “Nando is not that kind of girl.”

He quoted Antec’s words to mock the guy.

Blushing, Antec was more than angry. “Furan is also a girl. What’s to be scared of?”

It remained to be seen who would suffer losses in this one!

“Haha.” Beto laughed and thought that Antec had found the most terrible excuse. When was Furan a girl in their eyes?

“You’d better stay in your dreams as you usually do. You can always find a date there!” Beto scorned blatantly.

…

In the room, the dresses were all over the ground, and a weird smell occupied every inch of space.

On the bed, two naked bodies were entangled. One session was just over.

Furan touched Fernando’s back and giggled. “I can sense your lack of experience. Is the euphoria unique and strange like you never had before?”

She was referring to Fernando’s pureness.

“Yes, I did not expect it to feel like this,” Fernando admitted honestly. That was what a girl’s body felt like! It was truly different from a guy’s!

Furan smiled in satisfaction. The ecstasy of victory filled her with desires again. “Nando, did you mention that you came to Aalto to look for talented sorcerers?”

“Yes.” Fernando’s hands began to move subconsciously too.

“Haha. It’s useless. If we fail here, Holm will not end well either. Why bother taking risks there?” Furan said ambiguously. “Let’s continue our happiness!”

……

On their way back, Antec looked at Fernando angrily. “Didn’t you score a bit too easily?”

It was a great humiliation for him!

“The feeling was great and fresh. I couldn’t stop.” Fernando had no intention to apologize. “She’ll come again tomorrow. She said that she would introduce to me a few sorcerers whose lives here haven’t been very good.”

“Furan is only into girls. If she learns of your real identity…” Antec tried to scare him.

Before he finished his sentence, he suddenly raised his head, sensing that Furan was approaching quickly. “Are you serious?! I was only talking!”

Furan stopped by the window. There was no lust on her innocent face anymore. She looked at Fernando very solemnly. “Has the Liege of Death recovered his capabilities?”

“Huh?” Fernando did not understand what she meant at all.
