《Rain Revert》Chapter 6: [ Relationship ]
Advertisement
[ Master you are going to regret this. She is a Monster… ]
“I’m from a peaceful world… so all this killing stuff is still new to me, Sylphy. Although I would appear to be somewhat naïve, however, I can’t muster any urge to kill, especially if it looked like a human like her. It might be good if it’s against those animals and beasts but if it looked human-ish, I don’t have the gall…” Rain bitterly said.
[ … … ]
“Give me some time to adjust… at least, until I would be able to have the courage to kill… even if I died because of this wimpy naivety, then that would only be my fault…”
Rain took the beautiful Lamia’s head which was leaning on her hand while sleeping and moved it on his lap. He leaned at the pedestal and started stroking her hair, gently.
Besides, he was a man. He was taught by Glen that men can’t hurt women, especially those who are defenseless… If he did, he wasn’t a man but a beast.
At least, he wants to believe that this monster girl would find some use for him and take him under her wing. In that case, he would be able to preserve his life, at least a bit longer and until he can find solutions to his current situation…
Sylphy didn’t say anything again and just simply kept her silence – though Rain seemed to hear someone sighing inside his mind.
Unbeknownst to him, this action actually saved his life.
The Lamia was not sleeping; after all, it didn’t trust Rain to begin with. How can she fall asleep defenselessly in front of an enemy? She just pretended to sleep while waiting for Rain’s actions and what he will the moment he thought he was already safe.
This was her own way of giving him a chance. If he was evil and wicked then he will certainly die.
If he tried something suspicious, his head will certainly roll…
However, even she never expected Rain’s affectionate actions. Her body couldn’t even help but turned stiff when he moved her head and placed it on his lap. Her face started burning but she didn’t move and instead let it be.

For some reason, she felt comfortable laying her head on his lap while her hair was gently stroked like a child.
After a few hours of being like that, the beautiful Lamia finally slowly opened her eyes.
She didn’t say anything and just treat as if nothing happened. Rain couldn’t help but smile bitterly but he didn’t mind.
He then noticed he wasn’t being bound… is she giving him freedom?
"I’m hungry…?" Rain subconsciously mumbled as he peered into the darkness. The moment he realized what he said, he instantly turned his head and found the beautiful Lamia, staring at him while frowning.
Fudge! Rain cursed inwardly. He was being casual for a slave… is that it?
But who had expected, the beautiful Lamia only frowned for a moment and then said with a cold voice.
“Stay here and if you run, I will kill you!”
Then she left.
Rain left tilting his head in confusion. She seemed to trust him somewhat… was it because she was satisfied by his service?
Left alone, Rain tried to think of what he would do from now on. Though the first priority for him right now is to become strong.
Should he ask that Lamia?
Well, that wouldn’t work… she would only garner doubt and suspicion. He should earn some points and trust for the time being…
After a few minutes of waiting, the familiar figure of the Lamia came to his view.
“Hey,” he called out but no answer came out.
The Lamia just tossed a Bone Eater’s corpse in front of him and ignored him, leaning at the stone pedestal.
Rain smiled bitterly but he didn’t mind and took the corpse. He tried cutting a piece of it with the sharpened rock he had made before, but it was actually harder to do it than he thought so he looked at the sword beside the Lamia.
“Ahm, can I borrow your sword for a second?” He asked.
“No.” The Lamia coldly responded.
“I won’t do anything bad; I just want to cut a piece of it… please.” He pleads.

The Lamia frowned in dissatisfaction and was going to refuse again but then she changed her mind.
Standing up, she cuts the Bone Eater, piece by piece since it was no big deal and returned to her former position.
Rain shrugs and then when he was about to eat it, he suddenly remembered about this world being a sword and magic world.
“Can you make fire? I want to cook it…”
Whether it was just his imagination or not but, Rain felt as he had heard something snapped.
“You’re too annoying.” The Lamia muttered. “Eat it if you want and not if you won’t…”
“I’m just asking… eating raw meat can give you e coli…” Rain’s face darkens as he braced himself and started eating it. At this moment, Rain really confirmed that his choice [ Predation ] wasn’t a mistake…
Seriously, with this skill, he can eat anything, even if it’s raw meat… Although the taste was somewhat bitter still, there are no chances of infection. And he would be safe to eat it, albeit it is really hard for a modern man to eat, unsanitized raw meat…
After almost eating almost half of the meat from the Bone Eater, in which Rain was quite surprised from his unexpected appetite, suddenly
[ Master, you have gained a skill [ Agility EX Lv1 ]. An active ability that would double your agility for 30 seconds. Cooldown: 1 hour. ]
“Status Open”

Rain looked at his status and was extremely satisfied. He turned his head and saw the Beautiful Lamia looking at him, no, monitoring his every action.
He smiled at her, causing the Lamia’s frown to become even deeper.
Rain walked over and sat beside her. “Hey, I couldn’t ask before but, what’s your name? I’m Rain, Rain Revert…”
Rain reached out his hand.
The Lamia looked at his extended hand, not understanding what he was doing. “… Lafetti.”
“Oh, nice to meet you.” Rain awkwardly pulled back his hand but he was satisfied that the Lamia, Lafette responded to him. And this made him happy.
For someone who never had a girlfriend, making love to this kind of beautiful woman was really his happiness – though there was some kind of extra tail but, human or non-human, doesn’t really matter as long it’s female.
“Lafetti… can we become, lovers?”
“What?” Lafetti’s ice cold expression suddenly showed a momentary loss. It seems she was really surprised by Rain’s sudden proposal.
“You know, you and me ‘done’ it already so,” Rain awkwardly scratch the back of his head. Twirling his fingers, he suddenly felt embarrassed. As someone who hasn’t had a girlfriend since birth, this was the first confession he will make.
So, he was a loss of words.
“Is, isn’t it normal for us… you know, to have that kind of relationship?”
Lafetti didn’t answer and instead averted her eyes, completely ignoring him…
Rain felt downcast… well, no response and no rejection mean still have a chance…
Rain scooted over and drops his head to her lap. He was expecting to be thrown over or slap, or anything violent but when he looked up, he only saw her staring at him while frowning.
Is that a habit of her? Rain couldn’t help but think like that as he noticed she always frowns…
Rain was extremely happy when Lafetti didn’t throw him away, or punches him, or hit him with her tail and instead ignored him.
She closed her eyes as if she was going to sleep.
Rain smiled. He took her hand and put it over him, gently locking her fingers with his.
The day ended with a warm atmosphere.
