Novel Bin Chapter 25 - 25 Potent Essence
Chapter 25: Chapter 25 Potent Essence
"So, I'm guessing mages above S-rank are a dime a dozen here?"
Crystal laid down on her side, and faced him;
"In every gathering of hundred thousand men, you will be lucky to come across one single mage above S-rank. They're so scarce that they're starting to become something of a myth to the younger generation."
Nexus already knew that from the popular fantasy novels he had read in his world. But he just had to be sure.
"That is one nasty skill to have. But I gotta say, it's going to come in handy when we get to the human realm."
A coppery taste snuck its way into Crystal's mouth. A shadow of despair flickered through her eyes. It was but for a second, but Nexus caught onto it.
"I know, you're worried aren't you?"
"Pardon me m'lord. But I haven't exactly had the best track record with humans. Either they're trying to eat me, or capture me, or trying to rape me."
Crystal averted her gaze, and redirected it upwards, towards the stars ahead.
"It's not my intention to make things difficult m'lord. I know you have your own stuff to deal with also." Again, she exhaled, sending wisps of condensed air into the cold night;
"But I will do everything I can to make you comfortable. I promise you that."
A quiet, comfortable silence followed.
Crystal fed the fire more logs of wood while Nexus stared absent mindedly into the dancing flames. In the background, the life sized silhouttes of the trees skulked in the shadows, hovering like ghosts.
Eyes squinted thinly, shoulders hunched, and arms clasped together over his knees, Nexus continued to stare.
One major problem had been solved. It was a huge relief that Crystal's looks would no longer be a problem. In fact, her solution had added a little bit of sauce to his adventure. There was nothing more invigorating than a clandestine cover up- in a mission.
But that was just one side of his multi-faceted problem.
"Crystal. . ." he looked up, directly at her; "It's good we have your looks figured out. But we need to talk about your feeding habits---"
His words carried a double meaning and Crystal picked up on his subtext.
"No need to say more m'lord. I understand."
Nexus squinted his eyes;
"I'm not sure you do. You see, humans see how we feed as perverse, and immoral. They get all kind of sick ideas, and delirious desires from just watching or even knowing a succubus wants to feed. I didn't understand it before. I thought they just hated us."
Her tone kicked up an octave;
"But I understand now! You don't need to worry about my feeding habits in town. Your semen is top notch stuff. So it kicks a little bit more."
"Uhh, thanks, I guess?"
"Pardon me m'lord. Perhaps I should explain. . ."
An owl, or was it something else, hooted in the dark, just as a large cloud drifted across, and covered the gibbous moon up above.
"The length of time a succubus can go without feeding, is largely dependent on the potency of the semen she ingests. Again, this was also why I was worried about you and other succubi. . ."
"How so?"
"My lord, your seed is potent. And not just because you can keep ejaculating in long stretches of time, neither is it because your thick cream tastes fucking good and can fill an entire gourd. It is densely rich, and highly nutritious."
Nexus did not know if there was a man on earth that had ever received such compliments. What was he supposed say?!
Thankfully she continued;
"Most men's semen are one hundred percent fluids, and about twelve to thirty percent nutrients. This is the regular ratio. However, when you shot your cum into my mouth, I was shocked to taste the quality. . ."
Laying down on her side, and facing him, Crystal's eyes literally glowed as she recalled;
"You were one hundred percent full cream, and one hundred percent nutrient! My lord, when you fucked your orgasm into my uterus and filled me with your seed, I could feel my whole being lighting up like mini candles on winter's solstice.
"I was so overwhelmed, my entire body had to shut down."
Nexus had to bite down on his lips to keep his head from bursting with pride.
"Crystal, what exactly does this mean?"
"Don't you see?" she sat up excitedly, "The potency of a man's semen, determines how long it can keep me going. For some, it barely carries me for a day. There are the few occasional stars that can sustain me for a few days. . .
"But yours? Fuck, it's going to take me at least a month to processing you! And that's even before I talk about full digestion. I can still feel you in me, gurgling in my stomach like a thick viscous pool, bouncing with every careless step I make."
Her voice came out in long rasps, reflecting her excitement;
"My lord, you do not need to worry about me feeding. Your cum is of the highest quality ever- definitely top tier. Trust me, I won't be eating for a while. And when I do, it will definitely sustain me for a little over four weeks- at least."
The knowledge hung between them, in the air, hovering in a formlessness, invoking dark clouds of lustful thoughts, and sensual innuendos.
In the distance, the faint crowing of a flightless bird strayed into his ears. He jerked his head up, and noted the moon's position in the sky above. They had been conversing for so long, Nexus was surprised when he heard that.
Unbelief dotted his eyes - there was barely two hours of darkness left!
Nonchalantly, she shrugged;
"Since we're both unable to sleep now, might I suggest we take advantage of the cool night weather and do something?"
Nexus' insides howled at the subtle underlying subtext;
"Oh yeah? What's on your mind. . ."
"I've been thinking a lot. . .about the future. . .about my place at your side. . .and how best I can serve you well. . .and make you happier. . ."
Pause.
"And, I've decided I don't want to be a burden to you anymore lord Nexus."
Nexus' jaw dropped in guilty confusion; "Huh?"
"I mean, I don't want to be your weakness anymore- like in battle. I would like to improve my fighting skills. Especially now that you might be dropping into the orbit of dangerous succubi, and vicious hunters. It's definitely time to level up."
Nexus cursed his perverted mind. The past few moments was an emotional roller coaster for him;
"Once again Crystal," he said; "I believe you're right. I mean, that wouldn't be the worst idea."
In an instant, she was up on her feet;
"Wonder ful!" she squealed.
"Oh," there was a faint trace of regret in his eyes; "You mean right now? Like straightaway?"
"Of course m'lord. The weather is cool as hell, definitely weather for practice. And besides, who knows how much longer we'll have in the woods? There won't be any disturbances from anymore hunters. Plus, there's currently no---"
Nexus held his palm up;
"It's okay Crystal. I get it. You don't need to sell me. Tell me, what do you know about combat?"
"Lord, I'm certainly no master. But I think I've got some pretty good moves of my own though."
Nexus reluctantly rose to his feet with a grumbling face. This was certainly not what he had in mind;
"Well, let's see these moves, shall we?"
She nodded something that could have easily been a salute. New n𝙤vel chapters are published on
Her arms began to move like a conjurer. Her wrists flicked through the air, working in tandem with her elbows, drawing in the air what looked like spiraling circles- the same pattern that had appeared on her pelvic region.
"This is the universal symbol of the succubi clan. It represent continuity. I can tap into the cosmic energy all around me, and cause some distortions like---"
She suddenly thrust her long slender arms forward, in two horizontal parallel lines.
A gust of wind came swooshing out from her palms, irritating the roaring fire. She muttered something, and slashed with her left arm- as though she were holiding an invisible sword.
The arc turned out to be a slash of dense air, and it snapped the small part of a branch on the tree right behind Nexus. He stared at her, his face betraying nothing.
