Chapter 8 - Venture into the Radiated Past

    {[The word ‘meek’ comes from the old Norse word mjukr, meaning ''gentle, controlled strength.'' The meek will inherit the world. It is not through weakness or raw violence but through the means to fight for what''s right and protect those who can''t protect themselves.]}


    This isn’t just a hug to comfort me…


    A tactic for more slaves. But they should know if the demi''s come from the north. Eventually, the monsters will too.


    Her ears shot up. "Four thousand, three hundred and fifty. I can promise you that if you take us as your slaves and give us a good life in your world, we will serve you and your children. We will care for you."


    Usually, Luna doesn''t openly admit what she wants, but she''s desperate about this. Even so.


    Hundreds of years of hatred won’t fade away in a day, even if my ancestors did nothing.


    She wants me to freshen up… Well, Risa is onto something. Suppose I meet those CEO vultures. Then I need to at least look like an up-and-coming CEO.


    "You''re perfect. From your body to your voice and your purple eyes." The guards focused on the buff man. Gio stopped talking, catching that he might''ve opened up too much. He kept his gaze on the queen. "I’d do anything for a girl like you.”


    "Even so," Luna pushed against the wall. "We serve the same Master. By the time the Dead God devours the world, we''ll be on Earth. Far away from the desolation of our world… I’m not against the idea of finding more demi allies… But I’m not making that my objective…”


    Risa shook her head. "You learned how to use that sidearm." She referred to Alex''s handgun. "If other demi''s learn how to use one and add magic on top of that. Then humans will be obliterated by demi''s… Our kind will enslave humanity, and once again, we''ll turn into the very thing we hate."


    The morning was filled with the laughter of children. Ashner woke up, Risa was cuddled up against a wooden seat next to him. She was petite and slept holding her sword. Elven kids ran into the room.


    It’s milk.


    Oh, oh no… She wouldn’t… Would she?


    Wait, don''t overthink this… I might be diving into unknown territory here.


    Oh, thank God!


    She''s lying. Luna isn''t the kind of girl who does something like this out of curiosity. She has some plans up her sleeve.

    It’s been a week. Menu, spin.


    (Rare) Restore


    Level 1 – (Bought) – By touching metal and using your mana, you can remove rust and restore the item back to its former glory.


    Level 2 – 10 XP – By touching an item, you can restore any metal mixed with plastic back to its former glory.

    Level 4 – 1,000 XP – By touching an item, you can completely restore it, regardless of its materials. The larger the item, the more mana you will require.


    Level 5 – 10,000 XP – You can restore destroyed items lost to time and enchanted weapons and gear. This also allows you to swap out the metal inside of items.


    Useful, but I don''t have mana… Or maybe I do?


    I wonder what goes through their heads when they see something they can’t comprehend.


    The enormous floating city parted clouds in the sky. It had no propellant or any type of flame under it. The technology for the cities was a complete mystery. Some speculated it was using some type of dark or anti-matter technology. And some conspiracy theorists claimed it was alien tech. Either way, the cities hadn''t gone down in years and it was normal to occasionally sight one floating in the sky.


    At the same time, the demi’s found clothes they liked and bought them. Risa kept to a tomboy-ish style while Luna chose summer dresses. Alex opted for black and white clothes.


    Ashner bought spare ammo. He wasn’t allowed to buy guns but ammo was readily available for anyone with money.


    XP:315 > XP:225


    “The others reacted, guess it’s different with humans… None of us will die or get sick if we go into the city.” Ashner reassured them.


    “The bomb that was launched this way missed and hit the outskirts of the city, so most of it is still intact. But the radiation still lingers." Gio explained to the otherworlders. "The radiation is supposed to clear out in about three thousand or so years."


    "The material used to be hard to make. But Raven Corp found a way to produce it on a large scale. Before that, it was built atom by atom." Ashner interrupted. "That company ended up leading the world in technological advancement, but the war started, and the remaining world governments focused on making more floating cities and keeping the wealthy away from the ground.”


    Ashner dabbled with the machinery until he found the right switches. The lights below turned on, revealing enormous graphite bowls and thousands of casts to create ingots, along with robots that ran out of energy, forklifts, and packaging materials.


    “You just need to use your mana.” Wong pointed at the building. "Does Restore mean it can restore rotten items? If that''s the case, then we can reuse this building without spending a fortune buying equipment, and we can also smelt the materials here and now."


    “I’m starting to believe those rumors of you writing fan-fiction are actually true.”


    Maybe it has something to do with their affinity levels… What if I level that up? How will that affect their mana?


    XP:225 > XP:115


    Level 2 – (Bought) – By touching an item, you can restore any metal mixed with plastic back to its former glory.


    Level 3 – (Bought) – By touching an item made of metal, you can completely restore it. This includes liquids and rubbers that may have dried up.


    Free Gotcha Spin?


    (Common) Anal Lubrication


    Level 1 – (Bought) – By spending 25XP, you can purposely lube a target''s butthole for as long as you desire… For reasons of your desire…


    “What… The fuck…" Ashner stood there for a few seconds, reading and re-reading his new power. "That''s something I doubt I''ll ever use."


    Spin?


    Sure, spin.


    The menu spun.


    (Common) Resist Illusion Attacks


    Level 1 – (Bought) – Your body naturally resists illusion attacks.


    That’ll be useful… But what if I want to be charmed?


    Three years? That''s phenomenal. It''s amazing how far technology advances once humanity is on the brink of extinction.


    We fucked up our planet, why not look for another to destroy?


    Oh fuck.


    So this is high society… They treat crimes as a convenient way to punish an employee…


    Luna smirked as she sat down. Even the most beautiful women barely held a candle to an elf. The businesswomen compared themselves to the girls even if they didn''t scope out their ears. Luna found it laughable.


    From the right sat a young blonde with curly hair and blue eyes. Chloe, CEO of Cleveland Inc. She always adorned herself in silver jewelry.


    “Nobody gives away gold… But your invitation intrigued all of us…" The redhead added. "I had this analyzed, no traces of radiation… But all gold reserves in radiation-free sections are already owned, and frankly, they''re running dry… So how?"


    Good job. These women are so turned on they''ll listen to any ridiculous offer I give just to rush into the nearest bathroom to get off.


    I’m aiming for much more than one percent.


    That''s not true, but my power does allow me to remove all radioactive material from everything. That''s why none of my group has radiation on their body or clothes.


    “Longevity," Ashner answered with confidence. "I''m not looking to make a quick buck and bail. My aspirations shine beyond just one payday… I want to rival those two companies and crush them… With my offer, we can become the dominating corporations… And if I sell the radiation-removing technology, we will only have more competition in our future."


    “You’ll be cutting out a huge portion of our profits with this ridiculous offer.” The CEO of Monarch still had some fight in her, the most beautiful of the five. She was also sitting in the center of all the CEOs. Establishing that she held the most influence. According to research Ashner had done on her, Monica had several companies that focused on purifying water. Even if she sold it cheaply, she was easily the wealthiest of all the women. She also had her hands dipped in metal production, food production, and other more secretive things. “You found a gold mine that no one will risk entering… This all sounds like a fairy tale… How about you allow our robots to mine and smelt the gold, and you just remove the radiation? That way, none of your employees are at risk of getting sick.”


    She’s trying to get the most profit with the least amount of risk… Commendable, but you don''t have the power of an incubus on your side. Plus, I intend to become richer than all of you.


    Risa leered at the woman as she orgasmed, and her eyes met Ashner''s, then she quickly shot them away. Luna smiled. She was curious how those women would react if it had been her who slid her fingers under the desk and had her fun. Luna''s own lust rose. It had been far too long since she had slept with a woman. After decades of fearing humans, a part of her was curious. What would it be like if she dominated one? The sight before her turned the elf on.


    Now you''re negotiating with me. I have this contract in the bag.


    “Wait! Wait!” The redhead lost what remained of her composure. She removed her leather coat, revealing her assets a little more. “Don''t report us… Let us have time alone with him twice a month… I’ll even throw in a mansion for you and your closest employees in the floating city… And, and, we’ll train him personally since you want to make him a CEO… Who else is better suited than us?”


    Training him is just a ploy to fuck him, but it’s beneficial regardless… And it’s not like Alex is suffering…


    Monica digested every word, but her lust was overwhelming. She undid the first buttons of her dress, revealing her blood red bra to Ashner and the girls. She was sweating, and the gags of the blowjob were turning her on.


    You were a total Chad right until that moment. Regardless, you deserve this.


    Menu buy Racial Traits Romance, bring it up to level three.


    XP:115 > XP:90


    Romance – Level 2 > 3


    I’m not sure how this will play out, but if they fall in love with him, it will only benefit us in the long run. While I''m at it… Menu, from now on, none of my slaves require my permission to have sex.
