"You would rather live as a slave?" Lilith made sure she heard what the lady had said.
"Correct. I do not care to suck his dick for survival. If that makes me a slave, so be it." She replied.
The Spider Queen seemed to change her eye color to yellow. I felt a sense of searching going on. I was not about to specifically ask.
"You are telling the truth." The Spider Queen said.
"Of course I am. I have already been told by a friend of mine. That the iceberg floating down would choose my mate, that was from my father. I am glad to have found your husband." The woman bowed.
"We need to for the best with her." Lilith spoke with her head towards the Spider Queen.
"I need to head back to the others. Husband, if you feel lonely or just need someone close by. I will feel it through our Soul Mate process." Lilith said.
She then came and kissed me. She stepped off the deck and vanished. I knew she was not in any trouble. Watching her step off the deck was heartbreaking, to say the least.
"You should have landfall within a day or two continuing to follow the current route you are on." The woman said.
"Thanks." The Spider Queen said.
"No problem." The woman replied happily.
I took it as she also needed to leave to see her family.
"You need to leave as well." I asked.
She froze because I had already guessed what she wanted to do.
"I really want to tell my family what happened. I can't bring myself to actually see them." She frowned.
"Do I need to order my slave to see her family? Will she do it willing? What is your bet, my Queen?" I asked.
The Spider Queen looked at me and answered, "Of course, you will have to order her." She said in a sarcastic tone.
"I bet that she will leave on her own." The two of us shook.
She did not know how to watch a bet between her new master and some furious spider. In the end, she took the bet with her master.
"Alright, if my master bets that I need to leave willingly. Then I shall leave on my own. I promise to return once you have reached landfall." She waved and disappeared.
"She is going to be a handful." I said.
The Spider Queen did not answer.
"You okay? Earth to Spider Queen?" I said, waving in front of her.
She jumped backward and gave a scary look.
"Sorry, I did not mean to startle you." I apologized.
"My bad. I thought something else had happened. It is completely my fault, Rex. I will not ask for forgiveness because I desire to be punished." She said.
"Why do you need to be punished?" I worried about her.
"She has a special physique. It is a fairly common one for young girls. Once they become women or have sex for the first time. The physique disappears. I did not tell you sooner." She explained.
"I guess it was for the better. If I had known, then I would not have been harsh on her. She may not have liked me." I replied.
"She would have liked you either way. If you have sex with her, she may lose her physique." The Spider Queen quickly retorted.
"Why would she have liked me either way?" I frowned.
"Her physique was the Maiden's Heart. If a young girl keeps a clean heart, she will get an extraordinary upgrade to the physique itself. Most women can not keep a clean heart and lose the physique."
"What upgrade does the physique get?" I wanted to know more.
"Depends on the person. Some have gotten an extra element to the Qi, some have been able to become more beautiful, and some have gotten a blessing from a God or Goddess. It depends on the person and what they choose, I guess." The Spider Queen finished.
I never would have guessed that such a physique for a woman could be so beneficial. I did want to learn more.
"How many more physiques are there?"
"In total, most people say five. That is because everyone sees it and knows what they are. I am not sure about this, but I believe most scholars in the Heavenly Realm say there are a total of ten physiques."
I found this topic extremely satisfying.
"For the five that most people say there are. They only appear in the Heavenly Realm. The people who obtain them are from the Heavenly Realm."
This made me feel horrible. Why would such powerful assistances only be granted in the Heavenly Realms?
I asked the Spider Queen, and she could shake her head. I decided to continue listening to the rest of the current topic.
"The other five physiques that most scholars believe in. They are ones that come from the Mortal Realm and enter the Heavenly Realm."
I was getting excited just listening to her.
"No names have been given to these physiques. There have been about thirty people confirmed to enter the Heavenly Realm from the Mortal Realm. Two families, to be precise. The fathers, mothers, and eldest of the families had one different physique. The second and third children had a different physique. The last child of each family had a different physique. When one daughter and one son got together from the families. The two of them got different physiques."
This was quite a surprising turn of events. Not one that I did not expect in the least. It was still interesting.
"Here is where the story gets jacked up. The son who married the daughter, he ended up actually killing her. Using her heart as a medium, he became the first demon. As a first one, he gained more power quickly. He was eventually killed by cultivators. The damage was done. His own children became demons and ran through the Heavenly Realm, causing chaos."
"The physique that he had was subnamed Path Destroyer. Any path he took, it did not matter where if something could be considered a path, it was annihilated. This was before the first God who came into existence."
I looked over the edge. I could see something.
Once it became clearer, "We are about to have Landfall." I shouted.
She turned the ship sharply. This was quicker than what I expected. I jumped over the edge to see if we could land anywhere close.
It was just a cliff. I ran to see if any sandy beaches were close. It did not take me long, but it still would take another day for the ship.
I hopped back on board and directed the ship towards the same beach.
