《Heretic King》Heretic King - Chapter 25
Advertisement
A/N Sorry I haven't posted in a while some stuff came up(It wasn't Pokemon Go as I don't even own a phone :( ) Anyway the vote ended with Kind and Ruthless pretty much neck and neck. The other poll on Chapter 24 ended with A majority vote for Yes on sex scenes(Ya perverts). If I ever decide to separate this into Books, Chapter 24 will be the end of Book 1 as it seems like a good conclusion. Lastly If anyone is decent at drawing on a computer could you draw a cover for this story? Thanks and onto Chapter 25!
From London we set off towards Paris. With the world one big continent now London is really close to Paris, about 120 Kilometers, after Paris it is a matter of deciding to go West, South or East as we came from the North. On our way towards Paris I asked Diana about her class and invited her into a party.
"My class is called Ice Queen, I can manipulate temperature and Ice and to a lesser extent water. What would you city folk call it? An Ice Mage? I am a super Ice mage with a bloodline skill. Here I will show you my status."

"Yandere? That's new...What's a Yandere?" Thank god she didn't know Weeb terms, I don't think she'd quite like what Yandere meant...
But besides Luck, Intelligence and a stat I don't even have, I beat her in everything even Wisdom which is usually a Mage stat. Speaking of Mages, Close Combat Mage? That was the name of two novels wasn't it?
Let's see one was just called Close Combat Mage and the other had Virtual World: Close Combat Mage as the title.
So is Diana the second coming of Suo Jia? If so I'm happy, the stronger she is, the less likely she is to get hurt.

"So dear what is your status like then?" I awkwardly laughed as I realized how absurd my status truly is.
"Don't be too shocked when you see it alright?"

"Darling, what is with all the dangerous sounding titles? And that Sub-Class? Also why are they coloured black?"
I inwardly thought you're one to talk about dangerous sounding titles! But I couldn't retort that aloud as it appeared as if a Hanya materialized behind Diana whose face was visibly twitching. What happened to my beautiful lover!?
"Uh...Well a lot of stuff happened after the System was invoked and It kinda um ended up like this....I guess?"
"Tell me everything that happened before I met you. It's only fair now isn't it?" The Hanya didn't seem to be leaving anytime soon.
"Uh, where to start..? Do you want to know everything before the System was invoked or just everything after it was?" "Everything."
*Gulp* "OK, well before this all happened I grew up in a housing estate in Dublin, It wasn't the worst but it wasn't the best. My family was lower middle class and both of my parents worked. I was the youngest of three siblings. I have two elder sisters, though it may be had by now. After finishing school with good grades in everything but languages I went to University. I was into my second year when the system was invoked. Nothing really big ever happened. Just your dull boring life."
After giving my brief rundown the Hanya was well and truly gone, while it somehow ended up with us both sitting down cuddling. How does she do this? Diana looked up at me.

"Your sisters. Do you love them?" That's a straight ball if I've ever seen one. "I dunno, they were a bit older than me, the younger of the two is 3 years older while the eldest is about 5 years older. They never really seemed interested in me. Of course we'd talk every now and then but besides a couple of video games and shows we never had much in common. I never went to check on them after the system hit, because honestly I thought If I could make it, then they'd be fine. I never could win in a fight with them."
"Where do you think they'd be? Were they in Ireland when the it happened?" "No the eldest was abroad in Germany for work, while the younger one was studying in Tokyo. So instead of rushing to Germany or Japan I thought that even If I did make it unless they were skilled enough to survive it would have been an empty effort."
"I see..." After saying that she snuggled closer into my chest. I looked around, and I saw vineyards all around, she really know how to pick nice spots to rest. As I thought that I kissed her forehead and began to relax on the ground.
Although this world is dangerous and I could die any minute, I really can't help but thank it. It may be dangerous but it is much more fulfilling compared to the monotonous daily life of before. In the previous world, Diana if she wanted to she could have been a model. Me? At best I could get a decent enough paycheck in some Software Engineering firm and contented myself to that dry life.
Those thoughts were what I remember last as I drifted off to sleep with a content smile with my arm snuggled around Diana.
Diana's POV
While I rested on Thomas' chest I thought of the account of his life he told me. Middle Class, sisters, boring life. I would make him happy and make sure he would never be bored. When I thought of his sisters, I felt that they couldn't be forgiven. They ignored Thomas and didn't even try and help him after the world changed. If they were still alive, I would make them pay for that. I looked up and saw a content smile on Thomas' face while he slept. I gave him a quick peck on the lips and slipped into a content sleep myself.
As I woke up and felt a familiar weight upon my chest I could help but flash a happy smile. Wanting to savour this feeling a little longer I relaxed and looked around. Same vineyards as last time but this time I noticed that there seemed to be a creature tending to them. Why would a creature from the system tend a vineyard? I quickly inspected them in case they were monsters.
SeilenoiLevel88Health12,000/12,000StatusIntoxicatedSeilenoi are one of the attendants to Dionysus, while they will not openly attack Humans, if you damage their plants then they will attack with reckless abandon
They sorta looked like grandpa Satyrs. I felt movement on my chest. I glanced and saw Diana groggily opening her eyes.
"Morning beautiful." As I said that I pecked her on her lips. She seemed content so she once again lay on my chest while watching the Seilenoi at work.
We lay there until the sun nearly reached it's zenith, we quickly got ready to move and continued on our way to Paris.
A/N So there is Chapter 25. Firstly thank you for 100 Favourites and 400 Followers! When I started this I never really expected it to be this popular. Secondly how do you feel about this chapter? Should I have instead made them reach Paris or anything else? Leave your opinion below. I will reply as soon as I see it. I will try my best to implement our MC's new personality and hopefully it will work out well. For now Ciaossu!
