Chapter 711: Focused Training


    "What do you think?" Ray inquired with a pensive expression. Yar was nowhere to be seen while Strange inspected a peculiar white-haired figure from a distance. "It''s true that Ms. Hardy had been enchanted slightly but the process is tooplicated and..."


    "And?" Ray inquired with a raised eyebrow, "She smells a bit like Nik. It''s the thing we both do nowadays. If I leave my scent on someone, he won''t act against them if it''s absolutely necessary and the same goes for me."


    "The process I mentioned is something I''m familiar with. This is what my order considers as dark magic but really, it''s just different and slightly more dangerous. But ites with benefits. For instance, Ms. Hardy''s existence is shifting the rules of casualty every now and then to suppress any being working against her and providing herself with a better advantage."


    Ray looked at Strange for a moment before a scowl appeared on his face. "So, you will not describe this situation as that she can make others unlucky but would rant about any and everything? Both of us need to have a ''chat'' with you more," Ray mumbled as Strange shivered. What he felt, excitement or fear, was unknown to anyone except Ray as he smirked.


    "Damn, a store of misfortune, huh," Ray shrugged before disappearing alongside Strange. Even though Felicia stole the artifact that housed the Time Stone, not a single thing could be found from Strange''s magic and even during the entire transaction, Nik was clean, something Strange was quite convinced of. ording to Strange, Time Stone would leave a very unique signature of energy that is hard to be removed even by the awe-inspiring gods!


    However, to relieve himself and not using the bathroom for that matter, Nik had simply grown ustomed to purifying himself constantly.


    ---


    "With the strengthened mental abilities of Mind Stone... I can still not invade Morgan''s mind. It is different from Garuk but quite simr, too. Her entire mind is a maze with so much unnecessary information that her core memories cannot be touched easily... and since she is just knocked out byck of time, I can''t enter her dreams, too," Nik held the golden gem in his fist and sighed. He could feel Mind Stone slowly nourishing his mental state. It was slow now, as if the gem itself was reluctant to share more than it already has but Nik did feel energy seeping from the gem eventually.


    The same thing happened with Time Stone. So, he decided to keep both the gems close to him whenever he''s inside the Dream Core. In fact, he had even brought the three spirit bones million-year silver dragon sword, the crown of skydream Iceworm, and Fenrir''s ribcage inside the dream core. Now that he had gained Time Stone, he intended to use its ability to finally infuse Dream Core with its river of time.


    "Onto more important things," Nik left Morgan''s body alone and gazed at the rows of bubbles ced neatly. A wisp of dark red me flickered within each bubble.


    [Phantom Bubble: C-


    Use: Brittle containers that are able to hold elements of a greater level than its own rank.]


    "Hmm, Ray has awesome goodies, too," Nik mumbled and popped one of the bubbles before letting the wisp of hellfire touch his palm. The thing about gaining affinity with a particr element of the world was that he either gains it by [Exotic Escort] or spends a lot of time staying close to such elements. That''s how he learned to quickly tame Life Energy, too.


    "Oh?" slightly startled, Nik''s senses retreated to his spiritual world. Although his palm was easily set on hellfire, it didn''t hurt as much as the palm of his spiritual avatar being set on fire.


    Simr to Hellfire, Eternal Ice happened to be able to affect the spiritual and physical aspects of the world, too. With a single thought, Nik''s right arm was encased in eternal ice and he promptly held his hands together, making the elements on both of his palms react to each other.


    As Nik began setting himself on fire constantly with the advantage of the world around him void of time, making it essentially yet another time-training zone, much to his reluctance, his partner, the notorious goddess of mischief slowly walked into a dark chamber. This time, she held a glimmering blue cube in her hands and she finally sat down in a rather e.r.o.t.i.c pose. It simply came naturally to her.


    "The teleportation mark is finally settled up there, I can just feel it," she chimed with an eager grin as she couldn''t help but recall the details of her n.


    "Mmmh... if he actually manages to do that... he''ll just be my greatest consort," biting her lips, she set the tesseract aside as the mere thought of Nik set her heart on debauched mes. The fact that Nik was only humanoid in appearance and not a true human only made the crazy goddess appreciate his existence further. As her fingers gingerly reached down, ready to provide a sense of substitution but fully knowing that she would need some further ''assistance'', a knock on the doors of the chamber instantly ruined her mood.


    "What is it?" Loki barked. Although the Chitauri Scepter provided more concrete mental control somehow, she herself was capable of expanding her ''loyal'' soldiers.


    "We have located Bruce Banner. He is currently with his Cousin in East Texas."


    "That monster has family?" genuinely surprised, Loki chortled.


    "Yes, his younger cousin is able to... change just like the Hulk. But she is renowned as awyer."


    "She?" Loki inquired with her gaze brightening as she found a new toy to herself.


    "Yes, Lord."


    "Hehe, we can finally pass the remaining weeks without getting bored!"


    ---


    Paradise or better known as Savage Ind, was still a ce full of mystery. Although Nik now controlled the most important location of the ind and even set-up a barrier to shun out the other forces from the nearbynd. So, for now, all that lived within the Paradise were spiritual beasts slowly raising the quality ofnd, the pre-historic lizards that can make any collector crave for even a single bloodied tooth, the tribal men, and a few trained officers sent to explore this mine of bountiful resources.


    "What is that?" Tigra inquired as Vertigo slowly drew the map.


    The Paradise itself had a small portion ofnd but with the way Vertigo was drawing on the ground, it looked like thisnd was far greater than the boundary the barrier protected.


    "This area is called Pangea... I don''t know how it came to be but Brainchild once told me that this entirendmass is artificial and has its own power supply."


    "Hmm..." Tigra nodded, "I''m bored... Nik iste already... he"


    "Oof, not even a patience for a single day, what a kitty you are," a male voice called out as Tigra''s tail stood straight with her fuzzy ears shivering in alertness.


    Vertigo craned her neck sideways, moving her vision past Tigra''s strangely luscious and furry thighs while gazing at a slightly tired Nik. His eyes were a bit swollen but overall, he gave off a feeling of need.


    "What... happened to you?" Vertigo inquired. They weren''t in the main control room and currently hunted on the third level of the temple. Unlike the reptilian beings filling the area, spiritual beasts were especially delicious.


    "Me?" Nik mumbled, still a bit dazed. "Ah, it''s bad," he continued as Tigra jumped for a hug as Nik thought hard. The past 2 months had been extremely harsh on him. The fact that he didn''t have a fetish for corpses made him reluctant to get on top of theatose bodies of his girls and since he didn''t have any outlet except for his trusty right hand, he soon focused on affinity training with extreme focus.


    "I think I overcooked my brain," Nik sighed as his slightly red gaze passed through Vertigo, making her shiver unknowingly.


    ''I''ve been in that Sin City for a while to know that he isn''t acting normally,'' Vertigo grew alert while Nik seemed to recall one particr event in his second adventure when Shizuka and Saeko rode him relentlessly, a rare moment of exhaustion as he finally drifted into a state of haziness.


    "Tigra, p him hard!" Vertigo instantly spoke up as Nik''s eyes grew more distant and doubtfully, Tigra controlled her tail akin a whip and smacked it across Nik''s cheeks knowing fully well that even her full strength won''t bring any extreme injury to Nik.


    *Pah*


    "Hmm?" Nik blinked.


    "Oh, sorry," hugging Tigra back, Nik smiled, "I shouldn''t ignore you," he chuckled while Tigra''s vertical pupils focused on his expression.


    "What happened to you?" She inquired, her furry paws growing firmer around his back.


    "This happens rarely," Nik admitted, "I guess I shouldn''t stay away from s.e.x.u.a.l experiences for too long after all... not when my mind is having its time of life. Anyway, even though I felt that I might not be able to make it here, I think, during that moment of stupor, I brought myself here to keep you both in apany."


    "Moment of stupor?" Vertigo inquired.


    "Yeah," Nik nodded as he slowly nudged Tigra back while a wisp of dark red ze sparked from the tip of his hair as if dripping from his body. Before long, Nik''s entire body was covered in mes however, he lookedpletely different.


    "You see," his slightly raspy voice echoed as Tigra''s and Vertigo''s gaze widened at the sight of Nik''s current appearance. Instead of a simple ming body, Nik now looked like a skeleton covered with ghastly red mes. From his corbone to his h.i.p.s, everything turned skeletal.


    "I managed to replicate the cosmic mutation with Hellfire but... this Hellfire is magical in nature and so is my transformation, too," Nik''s jaws parted with a cking sound as he raised his hand and gazed at his bony fingers.


    "But I have to say, even though I lost my d.i.c.k for a while... my bones look awesome. Vanish, Netherion, and now Bonestar... I think, I like my current Bonestar appearance the most!"


    "Oh..." Pickle''s depressing sigh echoed as Nik snickered inwardly at her rather simple thoughts.


    "Bonestar?" Vertigo inquired once again.


    Looking at her with an eager grin that only served to frighten the two women, Nik''s body reverted back to its humanoid form when he sensed arge predator pouncing towards him with what Nik can only consider as ill intentions.


    "Hell, no!" Nik sighed and quickly sidestepped as Ignit''s jaws barely missed Nik''s butt andnded face first.


    "Grrr!"


    "Sorry, sorry. I came now, didn''t I?" Nik smiled happily as he looked around for a bit, "Come, I''ll please the three of youpletely!"


    A smirk touched Vertigo''s and Tigra''s lips however, Ignit only followed with a snarl of indignation.
