Chereads / Death is not the end! / Chapter 16 - Worry

Chapter 16 - Worry

Lady Dionysus ordered a bunch of stuff from online. I was growing kind of worried because she almost never spent money like this. What worried me more was some of the things she ordered.

I could understand if it was elixirs or some kind of body enhancement potion. Except the things she ordered were rather... Deadly.

I unpacked another box and took out the bottle. It was labeled as Void Tears. I was pretty sure they were something expensive. I scratched my head should I be worried she's spending this money or the contains of spending?

I knocked on the door of my Lady's bedroom. "My lady? I have some more stuff for you."

"Set it on the counter Enna! Thank you!"

So I followed her direction and put it on the glass counter. I sighed, and cured my hesitation. "M-My lady, Are you alright? Some of this stuff is rather dangerous."

There was a pause before she answered. The door opened and her hair was dripping wet. I smelled strawberries and I felt my face go red. She gave her normal deadpan look that morphed into a smile. "You are so cute Enna. You don't have to worry." She rubbed my hair and I kept my eyes up at her face.

She moved her hand to my chin and I felt my face flush more. "You know Enna, you can just call me Dionysus, Dion, or like Dyn or something. You don't have to say 'My Lady' all the time."

I shook my head free and I backed up. "I can't! I mean, it makes me happy. Like I'm your knight and you are my princess I serve!" I locked my fingers together and rocked on my heels. "It also fits my class. So calling you My lady is special to me."

My Lady looked at me in thought and my eyes flicked to her body. She was n a bathrobe. One I think was a gift, I never actually seen her with one before. My eyes returned to her face and her eyes met mine.

"Let's compromise with calling me Lady Dyn then. I think it has a nice ring, Instead of Lady Dionysus."

I nodded and she patted my head before closing the door. I blinked as my eyes went past the glass counter. The stuff I had placed there before were gone. When did my lady grab them?

---------

This should be the last one. I held up the small bottle of Void Tears. After checking it out I put it with the others in a line. Looking down the line of my collection of mess. I went over each.

Roseweed Venom, Venom of a Quetzalcoatl, Gillfern Poison, Grifstock Mossballs. That was just the venom and poison I got though. Next were the three Toxins, A nuerotoxin from a quill of a Dartis. Next was a toxin called Morindius. Lastly was a second nuerotoxin from a snake like creature called a Shadow Palm Tree Dweller.

That one was cheap since the Shadow Palm Tree Dweller was common and didn't attack humans. So getting the stuff was easy as hell, in comparison to the Artic Phoenix Saliva and its follow up the liquid core of a Glacier Slime. Effective for the Frost resistance.

For Fire resistance, I got the magma gland of a well, magma salamander. I also got an Orb of Hellfire which will also boost fire resistance based on its output. Which is determined by how much mana you inject into it.

The rest was things like Liquid Decay, Miden Moss, and Void Tears. Along with the skill and technique material. I breathed in and sat down in crossed legs.

"This is gonna be stupid and painful."

I began drinking each bottle. After the first two begun taking effect I clutched my chest. I continued though drinking each one. I grabbed the squishy salamander organ, the Mossballs and Miden Moss and shoved them in my mouth.

I began chewing as quickly as I could before the neurotoxins started to effect me. My arms and legs felt like they were burning and my mouth felt like I had eaten liquid magma. Which I basically had, grabbing the liquid decay I emptied it like a shot glass. The taste was that of rotting meat.

Its taste overpowering everything else, I had hoped my tongue wouldn't be able to taste it. My vision was blurring, but I grabbed the bottle of void tears. I only needed a few drops, 4 drops for each of my eyes.

When the drops were done my vision was bad. Just bad. No words could describe the things I begun to see. However I still needed to use the two items I had for frost resistance. I mixed them together and began lathering up my bare skin.

The coldness made all the tiny hairs on my body stick up. Thank goodness I took a shower before this. I gritted my teeth as I closed my eyes. I fumbled to put my hand on the Orb of Hellfire.

I couldn't really feel it however I eventually found it with both my hands. I took a second to just breathe, I was in the most pain of my life, but it was only temporary pain. The type I could power through.

After the Hellfire though... At the point where I began to have my teeth chatter from the cold I was feeling I began pushing my mana forward into the orb.

I couldn't imagine many people would use the Orb of Hellfire like this. A few crazies like myself would, but those were too few to find. The intense cold begun mixing with the heat. As the amount of mana I put into the Orb increased the more the cold begun to fade. Replacing it with heat and fire.

I held on, but the pain was too much and I couldn't hold it anymore. "RRRRRGH! FFFUUUUUUUCK!"

-------

I heard Lady Dion-, Lady Dyn! I ran over to her door and was about to open it. However she called out, "I-I'M FFFINE! FUCK FUCK."

I paused and retracted my hand from the door knob. I breathed out, if she said she was fine. She was fine, after all she said she was planning on getting stronger. Whatever she was doing, it was a part of her plan.

I nodded and turned around, instead I should help her! She gave me some earrings. Apparently they were cursed and she wanted them purified.

"I'm going out my lady!" I didn't expect her to respond. So I left to get those earrings purified. I could also get some icecream!
