Chapter 68: Meeting the Snake again.
Chapter 68: Meeting the Snake again.
Rael had just come out from the virtual pod, stretching his hands and leg. It was very stuffy and suffocating being in the pod.
"I don't think I am going to come back here again" Rael muttered, feeling nauseous.
After logging out from the virtual platform, it felt as if his mind was in deep confusion, because of the sudden ejection.
It wasn't safe.
It was naive to trust a device that can make you take you to an altogether different world. What if there was some bug in the platform not letting anyone log out.
Wouldn't that become a Sao story?
Maybe he could make a nice harem in the virtual platform.
"..."
He was able to feel it, others couldn't but he could. He could feel some blocks which gave a little bit of strain to his mind.
As much beneficial it was, it was just as much detrimental to the mind and body both.
After the light exercises were done, he sat in a meditative position near his pod. Only concentrating his spiritual energy to slowly remove the blocks with care.
Making sure that the blocks were getting removed not cultivating his energy as it could result in unprepared tribulations.
After a few minutes, he opened his eyes and noticed that Eddie had already left him behind.
He shook his head with pity, he had thought of gifting Eddie a position of servant.
Walking back to his dormitory, he couldn't help but feel calm.
The night sky gave a serene feeling, the dim light of the moon which fell upon the ground and the chirping of the nightly insects and birds made him feel at peace.
Reaching his dorm room, he noticed that his two dorm mates had already gone to sleep.
'It has gotten late I should also sleep..' Rael yawned as he went for a shower.
This time entering the bathroom, he felt like wanting to try the bathtub of the dorm.
Sitting inside the tub, he could feel the hot soapy water clashing against his body. In one hand was his favorite rubber duck and in the other hand was a glass of low quality wine.
Heaven! That's what he felt like at the moment. If there was paradise then that was it.
He closed his eyes while yawning, unbeknownst to him, the day had been so hectic that his fatigue caught up to him.
First was the Entrance Ceremony listening to the stupid speech of the Bumblebore, then he had to run for the entire evening. Lastly, he played some serious mind-straining virtual games in which he won every time.
It was indeed quite a tiresome day, his eyes closed and blank, he had already fallen asleep never to wake up again.
Lies.
He opened his eyes, just to find himself in his dreamland.
He was on a riverbank. Cool water flowed by, eddying around the twigs of a fallen tree branch. Behind him was a willow tree, mesmerizing as it was.
He cast his eyes up to find the sun but it wasn't there.
'Deja Vu'
He could feel it. It was a nostalgic vibe, observing his surroundings he realized where he was. He would never forget this place.
It was the place where he met the fucking snake woman!
The woman who didn't have the decency to kiss him properly!
"Snakey?Where are you?". He shouted in the distance, annoyed by the idea of meeting her once again.
Unbeknownst to him, a slimy stuffy fell from the tree right onto his arms. He literally freaked out as he jumped up.
The slimy slithering snake then started to morph into her humanoid figure. Seeing her morph he sighed as his calmness came back to him, sitting again with his back touching the willow tree.
"So why have you called me this time?" He asked with a stoic expression.
The snake giggled as she hugged him from behind, putting her arms against his neck as she whispered in her ears.
"Did you miss me because I did?" Her hit breath tingling his ears.
He rolled his eyes as he pushed her away.
"You know I really wanted to sleep properly..."
"Well, I have a gift for you..." She giggled again to let the awkwardness flow out.
"Don't tell me you are going to give me something yet again girly..." He said as a fire lit up in his eyes.
"Oh, how did you know?" She spoke feigning ignorance.
Rael was at a loss, an estranged smile came over his face, "Aren't you getting more daring now?"
She ignored his remark and spoke up.
"You know I also have a name so you don't have to keep calling me snakey..."
"Oh is that so?" Rael looked at her innocently.
"Yes it is Daeneri, you should actually respect me which you clearly don't." She pouted at the last.
"Snakey it is then.."
"Y-you...." She rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Anyway this is what I wanted to gift you."
She removed a necklace out of nowhere as she passed it to Rael.
Horror struck his face as he looked at it.
Earring- Check
Ring- Check
Pretty boy face-Check
Delicate looking body- Check
"You need some good touches then only I can imagine you in a Yayoi doujinshi..." She muttered the last part in low words not letting Rael hear.
"Why?! Why are you trying to make me look like a gigolo? It is already bad that I can't remove my earring and ring." He spoke trying his best to not cry.
"No! I refuse to wear them!" He yelled as he put his hands over his ears running away from her.
"Hey~! Stop running!" She cried.
Running for a while Rael thought he finally left the bitch behind.
He looked behind just to see a horrendous-looking snake after him, he stumbled looking at the snake. It was truly horrifying.
"M-monster stay away!!!!" Rael cried, tears coming from his eyes.
The large snakes then polymorphed into the young girl who smirked looking at Rael who had closed his eyes, scared like a child.
'He looks cute like this..'
"You know calling me a monster is very rude..." She mumbled feeling wronged.
Hearing the voice, Rael shamelessly snapped out from his acting.
"Oh, it's you snakey..."
"Yes, and I am going to put this necklace on because it is very important." She said smiling innocently with her eyes closed
Seeing her smile, Rael calmed down as imaginary sweat trickled down... he had seen that smile before.
Where?
When Puck would force something on him.
He sighed and asked in a gloomy tone, "Why is it so important anyway??!"
"It has an absorption ability and I have heard that there is a system holder in your proximity." She reprimanded him.
He looked at her straight, gazing into her golden-snake eyes. Those eyes were deep and enchanting, he felt like sleeping in his sleep.
She blushed seeing him stare.
*Ahem* *Ahem*
Clearing her throat as she looked at him as if trying to scold him.
"You know you can be hypnotized by my eyes right?"
She was like a child with a noble ladylike demeanor.
He snapped out of his gaze as he looked at her, "Didn't know that...." He blurted out.
"Anyway... I am going to put this on you.." She glared at him as she pointed at the necklace.
Rael simply sighed in defeat, sizing the snake woman from top to bottom.

Rael had a little tint of red around his cheeks as he recalled Daeneri tying the necklace around his neck, normally how boys would do it to girls, here the situation was the opposite.
Even if he had seen and done the deed with millions of jade beauties that didn't mean that he was completely shameless, he could feel a bit of embarrassment.
"Why are you doing this?" He couldn't help but ask.
Her expression darkened as a bitter smile came upon her face.
"Lilith, the mother of demons and wife of Yahweh, was originally my daughter. We snakes give birth through eggs so I have never had sex..." She said making it clear that she didn't have a partner.
Rael's expression became that of an 'O',
"So indirectly you are saying that you are my grandmother?"
She bit her lips as she glared at him before harrumphing. Deep within she knew that he was making jokes to make the situation less awkward.
"With the help of the necklace, you will be able to absorb divine or chaotic energy." She explained to Rael.
He nodded as both of them simply stared at each other's lips passionately.
"Okay, off you go darling!" She crept closer to him, holding him by the collar and pecked him on his lips forcing her tongue to enter in, then she suddenly she pushed him.
Rael who was falling onto the ground in midair touched his lips, he smiled a bit. Her lips were tasteless but surprisingly he didn't hate it.
She snapped her fingers with which he disappeared from the dream world pocket space returning to his normal dreams.
"If I had been with him for more time then I would have wanted to be with him forever... I should simply go back to stalking him like I used to do in his past life." She sighed as she looked at the sleeping Rael longingly from her domain.
Here comes another crazy member in the harem, God bless, Amen.
