Everyone woke up early, we packed our things and started to head to our destination. Ritsu and Riza were a bit sleepy but Youko made them lay on her lap, the carriage I made had springs that caused the carriage to not bounce around whenever it stumbles on stones. The seats were stuffed with cotton covered by leather.

The carriage was modified to hold more than 10 people, I made sure that the interior was comfortable while the exterior was strong enough to handle attacks. Due to heavy modifications, the carriage was now being carried by 4 ox-horses, a crossbreed of an ox and a horse, it looked like a regular horse only it that it had two horns protruding from its head.

Clai and I were the coachmen while the women all had their fun inside the carriage, I occasionally heard some giggling and some shrieking... what are they talking about? I wondered as I enjoyed the view and soon enough

"WHAT?! you did WHAT?!" I heard Riviera scream so I peeked inside

I saw Riviera inquiring Mira who was expressionless like a stone while Blue, Arachne, and Talia's faces were flushed meanwhile Youko covered the two kids' ears and finally Mizu and Valeria, well, they were in their own world

I was kinda curious, I wanted to know what these guys... uhm gals were talking about so I perked my ears up and listened

"Lyan did that to you?" Riviera asked, her voice much quieter

"Yes" Mira replied

"I wish Clay would do that to me" Riviera spoke out

I wonder what they meant by that

"L-Let's not talk about Cap's s-s-sexual life" Talia voiced out

"Oh come on Talia, you like Cap'n no?" Riviera cheekily replied

"I respect him as a person!" Talia stated with conviction, I'm flattered

"Yes, I agree with Talia, let's not talk about this anymore" Blue as the more mature one, tried to control them

"Come on now, ate-Blue you've probably done more erotic things with Cap'n right?" Riviera didn't back down and kept nudging Blue with her elbow

"W-W-W-We" Blue kept stuttering before pausing for a second and stating with a flushed face and a loud voice

"Didn't!"

"Judging by that reaction, he did!" Arachne chuckled and kept poking Blue's beet red cheeks

"I mean... he caressed me so much! that doesn't count as erotic right?" Blue stated like an innocent maiden

"It's different to me, he's very aggressive when it comes to me but don't get me wrong, I like it that way" Arachne stated without a hint of embarrassment

"I see, well we both take turns on who's aggressive and who's passive" Mira chimed in

"But he's so gentle with me" Blue muttered

"For someone older, you're surprisingly innocent and inexperienced" Riviera said those words and I imagined it pierce right through Blue

Riviera really went ahead and said it, huh, I chuckled

"Uhm, did I say too much?" Riviera said so as she checked on Blue, Riviera was ready to apologize when Blue opened the door, pulled me inside and in front Riviera, kissed me with the tongue action

I was so surprised but seeing everyone's eyes on me...

"P-Please don't stare too hard, I'm embarrassed " I said so as I hid my chest and my private area with my hands

"I-I'm not inexperienced!" Blue pointed out as her face was beet red and her eyes turning in circles

"Blue, shhh, the kids are still sleeping" I whispered as I pointed at Youko who was covering the Ritsu and Riza's ears

"I-I'm sorry" Blue mumbled

"I'm sorry too Cap'n, I teased ate-Blue too much" Riviera also apologized

"It's fine" I stated before peeking out and calling out to Clay

Clay and Blue switched places for a bit, I did it so that Blue can cool herself down a bit.

Blue and I were now sitting together, basking in the warm sun, the scenery around us was serene and peaceful, the trees with withering brown leaves that fall and dance to the wind. We were passing through a forest that is headed for Timberland castle, the path may not be paved and is only a dirt road but it fits the scenery. I looked at Blue, she was hiding her ears and tails at the moment.

"It's really peaceful isn't it?" I spoke out

"Yeah... I wish it was like this forever" She leaned her head on my shoulder

"You can't truly appreciate peace without first going to war" I said those words that popped out of my head

"Indeed" She closed her eyes as she sucked in the cold air

We stayed like that for an hour until she finally broke away, which surprised me

"I'm switching back with Clay" She smiled

"Really?" I asked

"Yes, I don't want to steal a march ahead of Mira and Arachne" She chuckled

"I see" I nodded

I stopped the carriage and allowed the switch to happen before carrying on, I saw Clay blushing red when he sat beside me

"What happened to you?" I asked

"Sexual harassment" Clay looked at me, pain clear in his eyes

"How do you even sexually harass a guy?" I asked

"Riviera kept hinting at me to kiss her at first and then she started to touch and caress my legs"

"You knew she was hinting at you yet you didn't go for it?" I asked astonished

"I can't do that in front of everyone Cap" Clay stated

"You're surprisingly innocent for a guy" I chuckled

"It's who I am" Clay didn't deny it

Hi there guys, It's me, Grimm. I know you guys want to read more based on Lyan's perspective but right now he's asleep along with his maiden that shoots out web. Today you'll be joining me in reaping souls, 13 souls are about to leave their bodies and luckily, they're just around where Lyan is so let's go!

Let me just open a rift and we're good to go

Here we see bandits in their natural habitats, hiding under a bush and no I'm not talking about some NiteFor players here, their appearances seem like that of a war veteran, scars everywhere. We can see them closing in on the group's luxurious and ridiculously large carriage

Little do they know that two women have already noticed them and are just waiting for their next move

Oh? what's this? a burly man stepped forward, he seems to be leading the group since unlike the other bandits, he seems to be wearing better gear, he had two swords on his waist and large axe on his back, the signature bandit weapon

He ordered 6 of them to surround the carriage while the other 6 were to use their bows in order to shoot down anyone who tries to resist, the burly man walked out of the forest and revealed himself, quite arrogant if I do say so myself

"This is a stick up! come out with- urgh!" Oh lol, he couldn't even finish his sentence since a knife was lodged on his cheek

Good job Mira, let's see what she's up to. Ah, she's on top of a tree where she can see every last bandit as for her partner, zombie girl, she's hidden amongst the bandits amidst the bushes, she's getting close to the burly bandit, watch out, watch out! ohhh! RKO from behind, she popped from the bushes and grabbed the neck of the bandit before smashing down on the cold hard dirt.

She immediately stands up runs towards the other bandits, with her steelish claw hands, she left deep marks on her foes. One bandit, in particular, tried to stab her from behind but she reacts on time and dodges by rolling forward, her foe was using a two-handed sword so without even thinking, she grabs a severed arm beside her and threw it to distract the guy

I guess we can say that she was "armed" haha, bad puns are always good

How about Mira, how's she doing? she seems to be throwing poisoned knives toward her enemies, well, that's one way of killing

These ladies are doing their job so I guess I should also start

I approached the burly man, he seems to be in disbelief, he kept staring at his lifeless corpse. He seems to have sensed my approach and turned back, his fear apparent in his eyes, he kept crawling back while saying no no no

I raised my scythe and stabbed him on his back, I raised him before slamming him on the ground but the ground opened up and allowed his soul to be swallowed deep into the pits of hell. The ground closed as I hear his screams echoing. I continued doing it until all 13 souls have been dragged down to hell, I wish I could stay and comment some more but I am a busy man

Until next time
