Chereads / My Road to the Dark King / Chapter 50 - The Water Spirit

Chapter 50 - The Water Spirit

My school life was pretty basic. The boys loved the pretty new girl, the girls were all jealous. Even worse, I was smart and talented. Their lessons were nothing for me, the only one I held any true interest in was history... and it was probably skewed towards Rasswell.

Over the course a two months, I had been surpassing many of the honor students and making a name for myself. A few students even had the balls to ask me out... I was kind enough to say no and apologize. Don't wanna hurt them too badly.

In all my time here, I still hadn't been able to speak with the demon as well as any possibly assassin or the like. Evelyn was decently safe from all aspects... though I won't loosen my guard for a second. She's innocent and precious...

Watching her in classes, however, I could see the truth behind the ice queen. No one got close to her out of fear and respect. Very few could even look towards her without shying away soon after. I did shock them. My very first day I sat beside her and stared at her. She didn't budge until everyone looked away. The blush on her face was so cute that the teasing would never end.

That suitor of hers would appear every now and then, but I still didn't feel like he could have something against the king. So why the HELL would he force such a precious girl into something like this?

Doing my best here told me that knowledge is heavily important for mages in this kingdom... I was honored and respected everywhere I went since my knowledge surpassed many. That included the teachers that were now threatened by my mind.

Today was finally winding down, so I was lazing in bed... staring at Evelyn.

"Your boobs are perky."

"Yea yea. How many times are you gonna stare at me sexually without trying to take me?"

This was our usual routine. Evelyn felt safe enough to be around me, even naked, while I was checking her out. I made it clearly obvious that I was interested in her, but I wouldn't bite... but today I wanted to see something for myself.

"And if I did?"

Her cheeks flashed red.

"I'd let you... c-cause I want it too."

"What about that asshat?"

"What about him?"

She looked angry.

"Well... somethings gotta be up."

I rolled over, stretching my legs against the wall and staring at her upside down.

"Like, why would your father change his mind so suddenly? Why force you to marry? Especially him... he's so..."

"Eww."

"Mhmm. Massive eww."

She and I giggled for a moment before I slipped out of my bed.

"So?"

"His magic. He contracted a Divine Light Spirit."

Her arms were crossed and her eyes closed.

"Wait... seriously? That's all it takes to marry into the royal family? Divine Spirits?"

She nodded, looking pretty grumpy.

"My contracted spirit is strong, but she's not Divine or anything special. She's so apologetic it's adorable though."

"And why not sleep with her?"

"Dummy. We can't touch them, not physically."

I grabbed her wrists and pinned her to the bed, pushing my knee between her legs.

"You call her, and I'll call mine."

Her eyes were open now, filled with desire and not an ounce of fear. She really wants me.

"Mysti."

Behind me, I could hear water boiling... boiling?

"She's gonna attack me, isn't she?.. Efreeta, Umbra, Myria."

Evelyn's eyes went wide. Three spirits was a big deal I guess.

I could feel the wind pick up, heat spark, and the lights die down.

"Master... did you call us to watch you ravage this girl?"

"Watch what you say you firey nymph! I won't let this jerk touch my lady."

Releasing Evelyn, I spun on my heel. My girls were all relaxed on my bed. Umbra fanning herself while Myria helped with small gusts of wind, while Efreeta was just making it hotter. Water and fire really hate each other... she's glaring at Mysti... who just screamed innocent. Her hair was barely longer than Efreeta's, and her eyes just reminded me of pools of beautiful water. She was thin and rather tall, barely surpassing my height currently. Her breasts though... were roughly a handful. Though maybe the cute dress she wore made them squished?

"She's... actually incredibly cute. You weren't kidding Evee, but I'm not gonna touch Evee... yet, Mysti. I'll touch you though."

With a raised eyebrow, Mysti got in my face and looked down.

"Try it girlie."

I looked back at my girls, each and every one stifling laughter.

"Evee, can I do it? She's bullying me with her height!"

"Do what you want Sylv. Illusion magic or whatever else. She's tall, but innocent, so don't hurt her. Magic can hurt them."

I simply slid off my ring, hiding it in my palm. I grew taller than Mysti, her fearless face blushing in the face of me.

"Am I really that good looking? You're all red."

I cupped her face lightly. In that instant... tears streamed down her face as she hugged my arm.

"Y-you can actually touch me!? How?!"

I pressed my forehead against hers. Whispering...

"I'm not fully sure. It's in my blood, and cause of these three... or maybe it's because of my birthright as the King of Dark Elves. Don't tell her, yet."

Pulling away, she still hugged my arm. I slid my ring back on, and she still wouldn't let go. I looked back at Evee, her eyes even wider.

"M-Master..."

I turned quickly to see Umbra... holding herself in pain.
