《Ancient Cultivator in Modern World》Chapter 30: Muspelheim[17]

The two woke up to find that the sun had already shone its heat, judging from the orange hue of the sunlight, and the commotion of hawkers outside the inn, it could be deduced that they woke up in the afternoon.
"Damn, it's already this late." Khan tapped on his User Interface and found that he had already spent a day and a half in game time. Lily's sleeping figure shook, apparently disturbed by Khan's sudden exclamation.
She groggily raised her lower body. The sheets covering her slid down, revealing the contour of her skin, and the mountainous dumplings on her chest.
Khan's eyes immediately snapped towards it and his lower body conceived a reaction. Lily noticed his gaze and looked down, she startled and pulled the sheets to cover herself.
"Ermm... that was an accident right now...No punch-" Before he could finish, a fist had already struck him on the face, but because they were inside a safe zone, Khan didn't receive any damage, he only smiled towards Lily before tapping on his User Interface
Because of the Lover's Perk, Lily was able to see what Khan was about to do, that he was about to tap on the Lover's Special Settings.
Noticing her gaze, he looked towards her and said, "I'm just gonna check its effects."
A system prompt materialized in the air, and the two focused their gazes.
"Hoooh..." Khan cheekily smiled.
[Effect: Increases the User and the Partner's nerve sensitivity, unlocks the use of nether regions for copulation; Can only be activated once a week; lasts for three days; Status: Activated; Remaining Time: 36hrs]
"So that's the reason why it felt quite different from normal..." Khan's eyes flashed, but before he could transform into a big bad wolf, Lily interrupted him with a glare.
"Don't even think about it..." She rolled her eyes and didn't bother with Khan anymore as she turned over and tried to sleep.
According to the information they gathered, although normal people wouldn't feel rested when playing the virtual game while sleeping, the two were clearly far from normal people. One was a member of the noblest race while the other was a hundred thousand years old, ancestor.
"Hey, Lily, can you show me your User Interface? I'm gonna take a look at how many levels you received." Khan tapped her on the shoulders and spoke. Lily turned her body over and opened her Interface.
[Khan Liverto; Class; Vagrant; Level: 10; Stats; Str: 15, Agi: 15, Int: 15, Dex: 15, Charm: 50, Luck: 10; Unassigned Skill Points: 18; Unassigned Stat Points: 18 ]
[Lily Liverto; Class; Vagrant; Level: 12; Stats; Str: 15, Agi: 15, Int: 15, Dex: 15, Charm: 25, Luck: 8; Unassigned Skill Points: 22; Unassigned Stat Points: 22]
"Why is your level higher than mine?" Khan frowned asking the already smugly smiling Lily.
"Well, that's because you left those beasts for me... Thanks for the exp!" Lily teasingly winked, she even revealed her cute little tongue.
"Hoooh, at least I have a higher charm than you," Khan replied.
"Charm? That sounds like a stat that a pervert like you would like." Lily retorted, but her face stiffened, and it gradually became reddish as if she remembered something.
"Pervert...? If my memory serves me right, who was the one who kept moaning and asking for more earlier...?" Khan retorted with a teasing of his own, prompting Lily to slap him with a pillow to the head.
"Shut up! You're the one who made me this way!" Lily hugged her pillow and covered her face with it.

"Hahaha, setting the jokes aside, those guys really gave us quite the huge present. When I see him I shall make him a friend of mine... " Khan wore a meaningful smile as he played with his stats, his eyes glittered when he saw the stat charm that was higher than Lily.
"Woah, look at this, my charm stat really is higher than yours, damn, this game really captured my greatest trait."
'What greatest trait.' Lily rolled her eyes in annoyance, she tapped on the Charm stat and an explanation of the stat appeared.
[Charm Stat: Increases the User's Amity when talking to NPC, the player will become more likable, especially to the opposite gender]
"Hoooh..." Khan's eyes glittered in approval, his head repeatedly bobbed as he nodded, Lily's eyes became a fierce light as it pierced towards him.
"Hmmph, you're not even letting the NPC's go... What a pervert!"
"Well, that's because I'm interested, about how it feels like to do i-" Khan's figures stiffened in horror, his eyes constricted as he felt Lily's hand clutching his lance with a death grip.
"If you dare to do that, I'll just cut this thing off..." Lily's eyes emanated a might that didn't look like she was joking around.
Khan felt a shiver down his spine, his face became filled with anxiousness as he stared at Lily and spoke.
"Stop... Are you trying to make me a eunuch?!" But Lily's grip became even harder, prompting Khan to pant in pain.
"Do you want me to let go?" Khan repeatedly nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice.
"Are you going to pick up some beautiful NPCs to hook up with?" Lily enunciated and her tone became as cold as ice.
"No, I won't', I swear, stop, no, release it!" Khan's eyes became moisty, Lily's grip became even harder than before.
"Okay, then, I'll let you off for now..." Lily removed her hand and wiped it with a tissue, however, she stiffened as she noticed that Khan's lance formed a tent with the sheets.
"Look at what you did, you better take responsibility." Khan looked like he was wronged and he spoke in a pitiful tone.
"Hmmmph, do it yourself!" Lily crossed her arms together and turned to the other side.
"How? I don't know how to do that, can you demonstrate?" Khan's face became filled with pain as if the protruding lance on his lower body tortured him. Lily looked at him with confusion.
"Seriously, I thought all men knew how to do it themselves..." Her eyes became filled with suspicion, however, upon seeing his pained look, her eyes softened as she resolved herself.
Her hand moved under and held the raging lance, she stared blankly for a moment upon feeling the strange hot sensation that pierced her palm.
'I read in a book that men would feel good if I..." Her hand moved upwards and looked at Khan, upon noticing his reddened expression, she continued her attack, eventually, she took a huge breath and dived under the covers.
Khan laid there with his eyes closed, enjoying the increased sensitivity that the system gave.
The calming light of the moonlight appeared in the skies, the cold wind that swirled in the air brought a serene atmosphere in the air. Inside the inn, the figures of Khan and Lily could be seen, the former had an apologetic expression while the latter continuously gargled mouthfuls of water.
"Sorry, about that..." Khan's tone expressed his deep repentance, however, Lily only gave him a glare filled with annoyance.

"Why do you have to do that in my mouth? Disgusting..." Lily washed her mouth and was only satisfied after she took a toothbrush.
"I'm really sorry, it just felt too good that I was unable to control myself." Khan lowered his head for he didn't really have an argument for the matter.
"Is that so... It felt good?" Lily's face became filled with a crimson blush as she remembered the bold actions that she took earlier, she shook her head to calm her nerves and said while walking towards the door.
"You better repay the favor..." Leaving these words, Lily ran towards the ground floor, leaving the dumbfounded Khan behind.
The two ordered some meals and looked at the time and found that they were already in the game for about four hours, they ate and waited for about thirty minutes when the sun rose.
They earned a total of a hundred and fifty thousand silvers, enough for them to buy some supplies, but instead of buying what they needed, as repentance for earlier, Khan was forced to buy some clothes for Lily, although their balance became zero, Khan couldn't say that he regretted it.
Lily wore a green colored military jacker, desert-colored bulletproof vest, and a jet-black military vest. Khan stared at her for a moment before nodding in approval.
The only difference was, Khan still wore the beginner's outfit which was composed of an ash colored t-shirt and black jeans, he wasn't even able to buy any basic protective gear, but oh well, for as long as she's happy, then that's fine. Khan thought with a smile.
The two entered the Forest of Seclusion, Khan scanned the area and found that Bartholomeo and Brandio weren't spying them anymore. But before he could sigh in relief, he found that Lily had withdrawn her Karabiner98k and scoped towards the distance.
Khan frowned, how could something escape his perception? However, he had a huge amount of trust towards Lily and so, he just stared at her curiously.
"Steady..." Lily murmured before pulling the trigger.
A fierce sound echoed followed by a mournful cry that pierced through the skies, The two saw a crow falling from a distant tree towards the ground.
"A crow?" Khan confusedly asked.
"Yeah, but it's not a normal crow, that's a crow created by a surveillance spell." Lily rechambered her Karabiner98k, the crow who got fatally injured became innumerable motes of light, not even leaving any loot.
Khan found it strange because in each time a monster was slain, a loot would surely be left, but in this case, the crow didn't leave anything, confirming Lily's theory.
He looked towards his little wife and said.
"How did you know that that crow was controlled by somebody?"
"Earlier when we went out of the gates, the crow was already there and maintained a constant distance from us, and although it looked like a normal crow, its eyes had a blank look and its movements looked mechanical."
She then smugly smiled and looked towards Khan.
"Although you're better at me when detecting people, I'm much better than you when it comes to animals, after all, I came from the strongest Race."
Khan smiled, this attitude of hers indicated that she wanted something. Khan moved his hand towards her head, patted it and murmured.
"Little wife really is good..."
"Who's your wife!"
She touched his hand and found that her resistance to him calling her a wife seemed to have diminished as if she was starting to accept it as something normal.
'No I mustn't, this guy clearly is a huge pervert, If I this continues, I might fall for his schemes...' She shook her head as a huge mental struggle appeared in her mind, however, in contrast to what she thought, she also understood that she was becoming even more fond of the existence called Khan.
After two hours of painstakingly searching, the two finally found the so-called Rainbow Mushrooms, because of Lily's ruthless attitude of shooting any beasts that go near, the beasts around the area seemed to have remembered her and avoided her like the plague, towards this Khan continuously nodded in approval.
The two reported back at the Virtuous Inn and passed the quest items to the bartender, in the end, they received an ample amount of experience and silvers, walking down the street, they decided to thoroughly explore the city before logging out.
There they found that it didn't really differ much from Muspelheim, aside from the strong smell of gunpowder and grime that enveloped the city, crowds could be seen almost everywhere and it was composed of mostly NPCs bickering to each other or players bargaining towards the NPCs.
As they walked together, hand in hand, their interest got piqued by a huge commotion ahead, they walked towards it and saw a landing strip, apparently they arrived inside a military base, their turn their heads behind in confusion and found that they seemed to have teleported.
[The system has assessed that the user has met the minimum requirements to participate in the beginner's Last Man Standing Event]
[You've arrived in the Calpheon Military Base]
They looked around and frowned, every other player in the vicinity wore a military hood, Khan focused on their figures and found that he was unable to discern their identities.
"Judging from how you guys look, you must be beginners, right?" A middle-aged man appeared beside them with a gentle smile.
Khan and Lily turned at the old man, Khan replied with a smile.
"Yes, we're complete beginners, mind if Elder teaches us a thing or two?" Khan clasped his hands together and acted in accordance with the beginner's manual on how to interact with NPCs to extract information.
"Hahaha, you need not do that to me, kid, since I'm not an NPC." Khan froze, he gave an awkward laugh before looking at the Lily who looked at him with a face that was about to burst and laugh.
"But don't worry, since you guys are interesting, I'll tell you a thing or two." The middle-aged man who wore a military hood of his own continued.
"Since you were able to enter here, you must've received a system notification right?" Khan nodded in return, he then opened his User Interface and found a system message.
the Last Man Standing Registration: In Progress; Remaining Time: 4:43]
[User has been assessed as qualified, do you want to register? Y/N]
Khan tapped on the Y and a prompt asking for his thumbprint appeared in the air. Khan placed his thumb on the prompt and a new form materialized.
[User is registered as a solo, do you want to continue? Y/N Note: Registration cannot be changed nor canceled, the user will be forced to participate.]
Khan pressed the Y button and a congratulatory messaged replied.
[Congratulations, your participant number is #92!]
[Event Information: Event will occur inside an 8x8 island, players will skydive towards their destination and loot for items that will aid them in their survival, every fifteen minutes, the play area will continuously reduce until it disappears, the goal of the game is to be the last man standing!]
Khan's eyes glittered with excitement as he looked at the notification. The middle-aged man's gaze turned towards the Lily who looked in the air before Khan, his eyes flickered as he realized something.
"Hoooh, so you guys are in a relationship?" He asked towards the two, Lily's figure startled, even though she was aware of it, she still felt embarrassed if someone other than Khan pointed it out.
Khan looked at the old man with a smile and hugged his fidgety little girl and replied.
"We're husband and wi-" Before he could finish, Lily mercilessly rammed her fist towards Khan's side, prompting Khan to retort with a bicker.
The middle-aged man looked at the two with an entertained smile, his gaze particularly focused on Khan, especially at his arms and legs. His smile became filled with a hint of interest and excitement.
Khan felt a shiver down his spine, he, of course, noticed the man's weird gaze but was only able to confirm it now, he immediately made an excuse to ran away, Lily chased after him in anger and the two left the man on his own.
"Oh well, I'll be able to see his performance then."
"Wait, Lily, you still haven't registered yourself, right?" Lily's figure halted when she heard Khan, she immediately opened her User Interface and registered.
[Last Man Standing Registration: Over]
[Transitioning near the spawn point]
A strange sensation swallowed their bodies as they reappeared inside a plane, a furious wind and a weird floating sensation enveloped their bodies.
[In a minute, you will now commence teleporting towards your chosen location]
[Please open the map by saying "Map" and point at the place where you want to land]
[If the user doesn't choose a place to land, the user will be dropped at the farthest point]
Khan looked at Lily who sat beside him and asked.
"Where will you dropping?"
"Hmm, I'll just drop to a place where there are many houses since I think that's the place with the highest loot." Khan nodded in approval, however, he also knew that the place with the highest loot would also be highly contested, he tapped Lily's shoulder but before he could speak, he was shouted at by another player.
"Hey, kid! Teaming is not allowed here in solo!" A hooded man with a loud grating voice shouted Khan, frowned before replying.
"What are you talking about, we're a team, she's my wife!" Khan pointed at Lily as he looked at the hooded man, the atmosphere became strange for a moment before almost everyone exploded in laughter.
"Kid, you're hilarious, if you want to team up with your little wife, you should've registered as a duo! Also, even if you team up here, it won't do anything good since at the end you will still kill each other to win!" He laughed even more before a system prompt interrupted him, he tapped in the air and looked at Khan.
"Kid, I'll remember your face, I'll make sure that I will be the one to kill you." He venomously spat, Khan frowned. 'What's wrong with this guy? Did I do something like murder his family member or something?' Lily also frowned in displeasure.
"Hahaha, look, even your little wife is angry, don't be worried, little miss, I'll also make sure to send you off together after I'm done with him." His eyes became filled with a bloodthirsty light, Khan who was about to retort was interrupted by a system prompt.
Lily looked at the prompt and said.
"You didn't pick a location?" Her words rang inside the airplane like an explosion in a silent night, everyone wore an interested smile on their face as they looked at Khan, for them, Khan looked like a little lamb, ready to be slaughtered.
Lily covered her mouth in shock, apparently recognizing her mistake, she looked towards Khan before leaning towards his ear and whispering.
"There you go, I made sure to let them know about where you're going to drop since you're just going to kill them anyway, why not lure them all?" She gave a mischevious smile that only Khan recognized, Khan, smiled in return, murmured towards her ear as the latter's body shook and exploded in a furious blush.
"Hmmph, you jerk, you better not die..." Lily replied with a whisper, Khan only smiled towards this murmur that only he had heard.
[Time's up! Teleportation Commencing!]
A white light engulfed everyone onboard, when their eyes opened, they found themselves on the location that they indicated. Khan's eyes opened and he was greeted by a scene of several wooden houses scattered in the area.
Khan's eyes glittered with excitement as he moved towards a nearby house, his mind only had one thought and that was.
'Let the slaughter, begin!'
