《One Look to Rule the Heavens》Chapter 23: Why Are You Allowed to Live!?
Advertisement
Ezra watched the entire scene with bated breath, stunned at how things happened. When she saw his weapon she was glad he didn't try to use that thing against her. Watching them lay down she continues to eat cores.
Marco continues to rub Milly’s hair until she falls asleep. He slowly climbs out of the bed as not to awake her. Grabbing a shirt from the pile of clothes he dips it in the water. Using the shirt he gently wipes the blood and semen off her vagina.
“I will take care of what's mine” cleaning her up, he throws the shirt to the side. A smile forms on his face as he looks at Ezra.
“But does that mean you can't take care of me?” He points to his penis as he looks at Ezra “Are you not going to clean me up?”
Ezra tilts her head as she looks at his blood and semen covered penis. Confused she looks at Marco’s face.
“Use your mouth”
Ezra's eyes go wide for a moment. She flies over to Marco and hovers next to his limp penis. Using her mouth she begins to lick it clean. She drinks blood so this is no problem for her.
Enjoying her tiny tongue, he watches her lick him clean. After she finishes he begins putting on his clothes. Looking at the sword slash on the back of his robe, and Milly’s robe that he personally tore he frowns.
“Guess I need to get new robes” walking over to Milly he nudges her shoulders.
She shifts about for a bit before opening her eyes. Her gaze lingers on Marco for a while, neither of them says anything. Looking at the gentle look on his face she begins to accept her fate, and it’s too late to turn back now as she's already killed Hilda and her body has been taken. Taking a breath she sits up on the bed.
“What now, what do you want me to do?”
Marco smiles as he rubs her cheeks. “Don't worry, I won't do anything to hurt you. For now, we need to get new clothes.”
Milly furrows her brows as she looks at her tattered robes on the floor. “I have extra robes in my room Demon, let's go there.”
“Ok, After that, I need more robes, where do I get them?”
“There’s a small store in this district that sells food, clothes, and living supplies.”
“Ok” Marco grabs his old solid black robes and hands it to her. “Put this on and let's go”
Looking at the long black robes in her hand she squints her eyes “If I wear this, and people see us together, what will they think??”
Marco shakes his head “It doesn't matter what they think, you are mine.”
Hearing his answer she's slightly stunned. Right, she's his now, why does it matter what other people think. Rising from the bed she immediately notices the changes in her body.
She is well aware of the damage to her knees and the rest of her body. Being this young and opening nine gates so fast, how could it not cause harm to her body, no wait…
Suddenly her eyes go wide “Ten gates?! Ten gates!! How?” a smile blooms on her face as Qi begins pouring into all ten gates.

Looking at her joyous expression while standing there in the nude causes him to chuckle “Being my woman isn't without benefits, right?”
She looks at Marco with the smile still present on her face “Demon, you did this?”
“No, we did this together by joining our bodies. I guess when we were connected we could use each other's Qi to break through our groin gates for some reason.”
“But wouldn't the massive amount of Qi shatter our bodies if we did that?” A questioning look appears on her face.
Waving his hand a blue flame appears “When our bodies were connected, your virgin Yin gave a temporary boost to my power, rapidly healing us.”
Her cheeks become rosy as she becomes super excited. For a martial fanatic like her, breaking through and having all her injuries healed, what can be better than that? Plus her body overall feels stronger.
“I don't mind if you stay naked forever, but I don't want other people seeing my woman's body, so if you don't put on some clothes we can't leave”
“Right!” She nods her head as she puts on her underwear and his robe.
The robe is so big on her, the collar hangs on one of her shoulders, the robe drapes to the floor, and her arms are completely hidden.
“Let's go!” He holds out his right hand, at the same time Ezra flies over and sits on his right shoulder.
Seeing his outstretched hand she pulls back her sleeves to reveal her small hand and puts it in his.
Interlocking their fingers he holds her small hand. Walking side by side he arrives at the door. Using his left hand he opens the door.
Walking up the stairs Milly looks around. “Demon, why do you live on the bottom floor?”
“Because the person who was supposed to give me a room attacked me for no reason when I went to get a room” looking at her the corner of his lips curls.
“You can’t blame me for that!” She squeezes his hand a little harder.
“Now that you have all ten gates open, what exactly is the next step?”
“I have to use my Qi to pressure parts of my body, but I have to be careful. If I start off with too much Qi my organs will be crushed before they can adapt and absorb Qi.”
“Ohh, sounds easy enough”
At this time, they start to see other people walking up and down the stairs. Looking at them holding hands, guys send Marco looks of jealousy and furry.
“Whos that guy holding Milly’s hand!?!”
“Noooo! Not my Milly!”
Even the girls send questioning looks.
“Does Milly finally have a Dao companion? Isn't it a bit too soon?”
Milly becomes slightly flustered from all the gazes, but Marco just pulls her along.
“Normally people just call me a martial freak, usually they don't gossip about me like this, this is all your fault Demon” at this time they arrive at the main hall of the dorm.
Marco is indifferent to their gazes and words, won't people always feel jealous of the king?
“Don’t mind the gazes of peasants, where is your room?” Truth be told, Marco’s eyes are constantly shifting about. According to all the novels in his memories, this is when someone will try to steal his woman.

“Down there” pointing at the middle staircase in the right. They begin moving towards the stairs, but at this time they hear a shriek.
“MILLY HOW DARE YOU SHOW YOUR FACE HERE!!” A high pitched howl comes from the front of the dorm building.
Marco’s brows furrow as he turns his head. In the front of the hall stands an older woman, around 20-23. She has long brown hair tied up in a messy bun. Her light green eyes stare daggers at Milly. She has a strong nose and thick lips. She is fairly tall, standing at 5’10’’ tall.
“BECAUSE OF YOU, JONATHAN IS DEAD!!” She begins storming through the dorm towards them.
Looking at Milly’s confused look, it suddenly dawns on Marco. She's been trapped in his Kamui dimension all night, so she doesn't know the elder killed hundreds of disciples. His face begins to crumble because he doesn't know if Hilda told her why she was in there to begin with. If she knew hundreds of disciples died because she didn't show up, how would she react?
Milly looks up at him and squints her eyes
Marco shrugs his shoulders “Elder Jun may or may not have killed a few hundred people last night because you didn’t show up, no big deal.”
Her mouth hangs open a bit, but before she can respond the girl arrives in front of them.
The female disciple immediately throws a punch, but how can Marco let it hit?
His left palm reaches out, intercepting the girl's fist. Drawing a circle with his palm he throws her fist to the side.
Seeing this causes Ezra to clap her hands, excited my Marco’s prowess
“Milly fight her!” He releases Milly’s hand, wanting to see if she will still listen to him, or if all his work was for nothing.
Milly takes a deep breath, her eyes burning with resolve. She's already given herself to him, so why care about what he did. Like he told her before, carry out his justice.
“If this is your justice, then so be it” all ten of her gates erupt with Qi as she throws out a kick.
The girl recovers from having her fist deflected in time to see the kick. Her forearms come together as she blocks, but the kick still causes her to take a few steps back. Looking at Milly she's shocked to see she's opened ten gates now. As she herself has only opened eight gates there is no way to win now that she's down two gates.
Milly charges at her and begins throwing out a series of punches. The girl maintains her guard but is unable to block them all and takes a few body shots.
“Fight! there's a fight!!” a few disciples scream and holler, some running out of the building as they scream.
Marco and Ezra watch from the side, with his eyes he observes the girls movements. after seeing a few exchanges he can tell she is nothing great.
landing a punch on the girl’s face Milly throws her off balance, giving her time to launch a kick around her guard.
taking the kick directly to her lower ribs she flies like a kite with its string cut. The girl tumbles on the ground a few feet, and when she finally stops she throws up a mouthful of blood.
After kicking the girl Milly doesn't rest. She chases after the girl and jumps through the air. She tucks in her knees and begins to flip in the air, as she rotates she picks up speed. Suddenly her foot extends as she drops rapidly to the ground “Guillotine Kick!” the heel of her foot chops down on the girl's torso, causing her breast deform from the impact.
An audible crunch is heard as the girl's ribs crack, causing many of the spectators to flinch.
Milly stands up and looks towards Marco.
Watching Milly perform another technique leaves Marco pleasantly surprised, as he thought her only move was the Hurricane Kick. With his eyes he was able to see every detail of the move and how to perform it, causing him to instantly understand. That move focuses all your Qi into the attacking leg, greatly increasing power but at the same time leaving you vulnerable to attacks. If you're not 100% sure you can land the move it's better not to use it.
Seeing Milly look over a smile forms on his face, his work wasn't for nothing. Watching her do battle in the large robe was a pleasant surprise. He beckons for her to come back over with his hand.
As she walks back over Marco suddenly pulls her into his embrace and kisses her. She doesn't resist but afterward glares at him “Why didn't you tell me hundreds of people died because you captured me” she mumbles to him.
Marco rubs the side of her face as he looks into her scowling eyes “Because they were insignificant, and their deaths benefited me. It’s not like I hid it from you, but it never crossed my mind nor did I regret it. All those were necessary because it gave me you.”
Milly looks at him, as she’s about to open her mouth a group of people rushes into the dorm.
“Wheres Milly!?!”
“I don't care what that bitch looks like! Because of her, my brother is dead so I’m going to fuck up her face!”
“My Dao companion is dead!! So why are you still alive!!”
Seeing this causes Marco to smile, while it wasn't exactly what he was expecting it's still something.
“Go to your room and get all your important stuff, do you have a bag?”
“I have spares in my room” Milly looks at the people storming into the dorm. “What about them?”
“You go, I’ll wait here for you to come back.” Marco grabs Ezra from his shoulder, and gently touches her cheek with his finger “Go with Milly”
“Chrim chim!” She flies out his hand and kisses his cheek, then flies over to Milly.
Milly grabs her out of the air and holds her to her chest.
Seeing this Marco begins walking towards the group of people.
Looking at his departing back she hugs Ezra to her chest.
“Let's go, Ezra.”
“Chrum”

The Dog with a Chair
As of now, this story is dropped. It was an excellent learning experience, but the quality suffered too much from me trying new things for me to continue in good concience. Thanks to anyone that read it. I'm leaving this story up as a record of my first ever attempt at publishing something I've wrote. To any new writers out there, remember that even if the stuff you write is trash, you can still learn a lot from writing it. - November 17th 2020 Guy gets involved in advocacy for civil engineering projects, then gets pulled into an interdimensional war. Third person with a focus on one main character (Stanley) with the occasional point of view from another character important to story progression. Writing style tends to shift early on as I figure out how to write (this is my first book). Still learning, hoping to improve. Current style choice is to have a focus on character dialogue/actions with interspersed internal monologue in italics. No current end is set for the story, with the primary goal of this project being to learn to express myself in a written format. Storyline is kept as consistent as practical while covering things I find interesting. Governmental systems are mentioned, but not explained in extreme detail. Sci fi elements are used to reinforce and guide plot progression as I'm able. Personal goals belonging to each character are in the process of being developed, with the hope that they will support or oppose each other in interesting ways later on. Hope you enjoy :)

A nation is just a means of survival. Metro Manila fell within 5 months of the first report of cannibalism.
