(Artemis POV)
Well my little brother really is getting into the proper mindset for the new world. Hopefully after this he won't be able to stop his craving for blood and eventually this virtual violence won't be enough.
"Ah the beauty that is Artemis, what brings such a stunning smile to my goddess's face"
Piff
"Who is your goddess? You aren't even worthy of licking the bottom of my feet Damon."
"Ouch, my heart. Don't be like that my sweet. So your looking at your new toy huh, mine is also down there."
"Really? Which one was unlucky enough to get you."
"The one that likes to blow things up. Darren, Daniel, something with a d?"
"Derek?"
"That's the one. Man he's fun to watch. Awkward with girls, only hobbies are destroying things, and origami. I know big man like that enjoys his origami."
"Don't think I asked."
"So which one is yours?"
"The one killing off the type 4s."
"Wow he has some strong bloodthirsty, you lucked out their. He is sure to acumalte a lot of eco points. How many entertainment points have you got off him?"
"Ha he has already generated over twenty thousand."
Ha I enjoy looking at Damon's stupid face going into disbelief. He already looks like a moron but with that wide open mouth he looks mentally handicapped.
"The hell has your contestant been doing since the start of the game? Grinding goblins? Massacuring gnolls? He knock up a few elves?"
"Evolved bloodline, lesser dragon species."
"Fuck my life. Not only are you beautiful but also insanely lucky. Won't you marry me."
"Screw off."
"Fine, fine. How about just having a child than?"
My only response was to stick a certain finger towards him.
(Hunter POV)
Ah Choo, sniff sniff. Huh, who's talking about me?
(Artemis POV)
"You can go away now Damon."
"Fine but you better watch out for your toy. Lesser dragon bloodlines will drive most of the invading races crazy with desire. If you aren't careful that little golden egg laying hen is going to get cooked."
Sigh, he is such an annoying pest. Instead of a moderately handsome man, his avatar should be a fly. It would match him better.
Although I hate to admit it he is right. Get stronger little brother, this big sister hasn't got to play with you enough yet.
(Hunter POV)
Well that was fun. I look around me and admired my handiwork. Incomplete bodies, small streams of blood, scattered limbs all over the ground, I must admit this would be a great screen saver.
"Hey little guy, you still alive?"
"Huff, huff, don't, look down, on an, ant warrior."
"Awe, your so tired. Don't worry you did good."
I picked up the struggling ant and started to walk back towards the ant formation. It was hard because of all the piles of bodies surrounding them.
"Hey Ruby, my name is Hunter. Your ant warrior has gone through a tough battle and deserves praise. I admire the unyielding spirit of your warriors."
I could almost see the little ants puff out their chests and raise their heads a little higher. They are really susceptible to praise huh. Even the ant in my arms has stopped struggling and is trying to put on a dignified look. So cute.
"Thanks for bring Crixus back over. I watched the competition, you both deserve praise."
"Would it be alright if I stayed over here and get a closer look at your formations? I'm an ancient Rome fan myself."
"Of course, it would be an honor to fight alongside you."
Now the real test to see if we can cooperate together. The ant, Crixus was it? He impressed me that's for sure.
Wave 5 of one thousand type 4 goblins, five hundred type 4 gnolls, and five thousand type 3 cockroaches will commence in 5
4
3
Great cockroaches, so happy, not.
2
Thank god I'm in the ant formation, the others can have fun with that.
1
Wave 5 commence.
Looking at the doors the goblins came out from the door to the east, the gnolls from the one to the west and the cockroaches streamed out of the north and south doors.
It's my first time seeing gnolls and they really do look like hyenas that learned how to walk, ugly as shit too. Not nearly as ugly as the roaches though. Each one is about a meter long and looks like all kind of nasty, I can see that their bodies have some kind of slime coating. Ugh.
"Well your highness I will be in your care for a while."
I pull out my blade because just the thought of touching those roaches is making me want to hurl.
"Of course Hunter, I'm sure my legionaries are just dying to show you what they are made of. Lucius take over as commander until Crixus is rested."
"An honor my queen that will not end in disappointment, FOR THE QUEEN!"
HORAH!
"If you don't mind me asking why does Crixus call you your highness but Lucius was it call you queen?"
"My three main guards call me by different names, I believe it helps promote their individuality. There is Crixus who as you said calls me highness, Lucius who calls me queen, and my last guard who's name is Gaius and he calls me empress. I support them in trying to be different because it helps their intelligence grow."
"Interesting method, are you using any activities to help their intelligence?"
"Activities? Like what?"
"Well is humans have a few games that help develop intelligence. Such as chess, checkers, go, and many others. You could also have them just learn things, the more they learn the more they can develop."
Wow, her eyes are almost shining. Is she really interested in things like that.
"Would you like me to teach you a few of these games?"
"Yes! I mean if you could it would be much appreciated."
I'm gonna pretend I didn't notice how excited she got to save her some face. Is she getting redder? I guess ants get embarrassed as well. Let's change the subject.
"So you said you have three main guards, are they the only ones who have reached type 3?"
"No I have a few hundred but those three have the most potential and the greatest intelligence. I made them my main guards to give the others a goal to strive for."
"I see. That was a good idea."
"Thank you."
Huh seems Ruby is a little weak to flattery as well. I wonder if shes where the others got the trait from?
Ugh here comes the roaches. Awe man look at those yellow insides and the smell. I think I might be sick, ugh I have to turn my hyper senses off or this smell is gonna make me sick.
"Are you ok Hunter your color seems to be getting paler?"
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern. I just need to get used to the smell."
"Ah, I see. Well take your time, these pests are nothing to my guards."
"Again, I will be in your care."
"While you recover tell me more about these games."
Her eyes are shining again. So pure and innocent, it hurts my soul to be stared at by such a gaze. I could only nod while holding my nose.
