Chereads / Ravenous Conqueror / Chapter 29 - Perfect Body

Chapter 29 - Perfect Body

After my morning activities, I soaked in the bath for a while. Hera's enthusiasm had woken me up quite a bit before I needed to, so I had enough time to be leisurely this morning. I checked my points, they had increased by a lot because of yesterday's events. It was finally time to get the thing that had caught my eye a while ago. I opened the 'Seducer's Shop' and scrolled down for a while. It was something I had seen near the bottom of the list, one of the most expensive things in the shop. After a moment of scrolling I finally saw it appear. I quickly selected it.

[Name: Perfect Body

Description: Shed your imperfect outer shell and don the Perfect Body. The transformation takes twenty-four hours. The Perfect Body changes both your inside and outside, creating flawless conditions.

Effect: Perfect Attractiveness, Perfect Muscularity, Perfect Mana, Perfect Senses.

Warning: This will hurt.]

The description was vague, including the effects, but the word 'Perfect' had caught my eye. Along with the high price, it was guaranteed to be a worthwhile purchase. Besides, I didn't need anything else from the shop right now, and I didn't want to just sit on my points, so I bought it. I was a little scared of the warning, but it couldn't be that bad, right?

I was wrong. The second after I bought it, I felt my body heat up. It was uncomfortable, but nothing I couldn't bear. However, that was just the beginning. The first wave struck after I had just finished eating the food Hera had prepared for me. It was a pain I had never experienced before, even counting all of the beatings Cameron had given me that left me in need of immediate healing.

I could feel my bones melting within my body, then slowly beginning to stretch out. The pain was so intense my vision began to fade to black, leaving only a small tunnel of light to see through. Hera rushed over as I collapsed onto the ground in pain.

"Don't worry." I barely managed to squeak out, "I'll be out for a day." That was the only thing I managed to say before I felt my consciousness fade. I heard Hera calling out to me, but it sounded far away, almost as if she was across the room from me. It was my first time passing out like this.

I woke up in between pain spikes, my eyes filled with tears as I opened them. Hera was standing flustered over me, having already moved me to the bed while I was unconscious. I quickly grasped her wrist and began to explain while I was still able to speak.

I told her that I would be in and out of it for the entirety of today, but after that I would be fine. I explained it as something relating to my skill, which wasn't wrong. She obviously had questions for me, but before she could ask the pain spiked once more, this time it felt like my veins were beginning to burst. The insides of my body, especially around my heart, felt like it was on fire. That heatwave continued to pass through me until I passed out once more.

This happened two more times, affecting both my muscles and my skin as it did so. The last one was especially difficult, as I began to excrete a black liquid through my pores. The black liquid was disgusting, assaulting my nose the second it started to come out while also bringing ungodly amounts of pain. Even Hera couldn't stand the stench, and she rapidly began casting 'Clean' as the liquid practically poured out of my every orifice.

I'm sure I only saw the beginning of her battle against the vile scent, as I quickly passed out fairly quickly afterwards. Finally, that proved to be the last time I would need to feel such pain. In total, it took roughly twenty hours to finish the worst of the transformation. I still felt a dull ache in my body, but it wasn't a terrible pain like before.

Hera had also covered for me in that time, saying that she had placed me under house arrest for a day in order to punish me for staying out the day before. It was good thinking on her part, as I didn't want to have to explain myself to everyone again. Seeing that I was finally done with the worst of the pain, Hera promptly passed out. She had been awake for twenty hours straight worrying about me so it was understandable.

I checked my notifications. There was something I had seen after my second time passing out, there was a progress bar in my notifications that updated in real time.

[Skill:Healing Magic Unlocked]

[Perfect Body Progress: 89%...]

[Skill:Healing Magic

Type:Magic

Activation: Spell Cast

Effect: Grants use of healing magic via mana.]

I also figured out what skill I had learned from Hera. 'Healing Magic' was a skill I had wanted for a while, it would help me in any situation where I would get injured. Which meant I would never end up sprawled on the floor in pain like when I got my ass beat by Cameron again.

Since twenty hours had passed, it was now in the wee hours of the morning. Today was Saturday, the day I had agreed to go out on a date with Mimi on. I was actually going to be out with her for today and tomorrow, since we had been granted permission to use the teleportation gate to the Haliborn Kingdom's biggest city. We were going to explore their night market, which stretches from nine o'clock at night to two in the morning. The teleportation gates close down at ten o'clock, so we would have to stay the night if we wanted to experience it.

Luckily, many students wanted to do the same, so there was already a precedent for it. We had decided to meet up at six o'clock today and explore the city for a few hours before entering the night market, which meant I still had a lot of time before I had to go meet up with her. And I wasn't one to waste time. I snuck out of bed, making sure not to awaken Hera, and grabbed the maid uniform that was in her room. I was going to grind some mastery before I left today.

Unfortunately, I wasn't ready for the changes in my body. When I grabbed the edge of my bed to swing myself out, I hit my legs against the side of the bed. My legs were longer than normal, by quite a bit. I wasn't short to begin with, I stood at a solidly average height, but now I was several inches taller. I must have increased to almost three inches past six feet. Not to mention, my muscles, which had always looked good, were phenomenal now. My chest was rippling with muscle, each of my abs and obliques were visible, and my legs nearly burst my shorts at the seams. I had practically zero body fat, a physique that was unattainable through normal means.

But I was still not used to my awkward body, I kept hitting against things as I began to walk through the dorm and tried to enter Hera's room for the maid uniform. It took an immense amount of focus to make sure I didn't bump into anything as I got the uniform and grabbed the baggiest clothes I owned from my own room to change into. They felt tight on me still, but it was the best I could do.

I tottered out of my dorm building, making my way shakily towards the girls dorm. It was still early so there weren't many people out, but luckily I found a girl who was going to be reentering her dorm. She looked like she had just come back from a run, sweat dripping down her bright red hair. Her sharp, fiery red eyes matched her hair perfectly, giving off the feeling that you would be burned if you tried to approach her.

I wasn't worried, I just needed her to knock on Jez's door for me. I walked up to her confidently, waving my hand in greeting. She looked me up and down, blinking in approval, before meeting my eyes and waiting for me to approach.

"Hello," I said, sticking my hand out for a handshake. "I'm Caesar." She smirked, taking my hand and squeezing sharply. She seemed confident in her strength, and for good reason. She was stronger than me, whose strength was well above forty. But she wasn't strong enough to fully overpower me, I felt a slight pain in my hand as she squeezed, but I didn't let it show. Instead I smiled as I happily shook her hand.

She smirked even deeper, obviously pleased with my performance. "I'm Abigail, 'Junior' level. Nice to meet you." I quickly activated my 'Eyes of A Pervert' curious as to her stats.

Name: Abigail

Class: Aura Knight

Level: 42

Strength: 53

Dexterity: 49

Constitution: 50

Intelligence: 25

Wisdom: 27

Charisma: 30

I blinked, struggling to contain my surprise. She was by far one of the strongest people I had ever seen. Far stronger than James and Hera, even almost on par with Oephilia, though she was a bit behind in stats compared to her. I struggled to see why she was still in the 'Junior' level class, with stats like these she would easily be able to be a 'Senior'.

However, if I asked about it, I would let it slip that I can see her stats which wasn't something I needed to advertise to the public. Instead I kept my happy facade and smiled towards her. "Nice to meet you too. But can I ask a favor?" I still needed her to call Jez down, so I quickly began to ask.

"Sure, but you'll owe me. And I always collect." Her words scared me slightly, as it was now she would absolutely destroy me in a fight. But I trusted that she wouldn't start beating me for no reason and instead agreed to her terms.

"Of course. There's a dorm with a girl named Jezabel in it, she's one of the 'Heroes', can you call her down? Tell her Caesar is looking for her." I quickly explained what I needed her to do. She looked down in thought for a moment before smirking at me once more.

"A 'Hero' huh? So you're also a 'Hero' then?" I nodded my head, affirming her deduction. I didn't mind people knowing I was a 'Hero', in fact it had worked in my favor more often than not after I had broken my Level Cap. "Good, then 'Hero' Caesar, I will come collect soon." She said, leaving through the doors of the girl's dorm.

Shortly after, Jez and Hannah both came down to sneak me up to their room. It went without a hitch thanks to Hannah's skills and I quickly arrived in Jez's dorm. Her guide, a female priest of lower position than Hera, looked shocked to see a boy in the room. However Jez quickly brought a finger to her lips to shush the priestess.

"Shhh, Lisa." She said, addressed towards the priestess. The priestess, Lisa, scrunched her clear yellow eyes in confusion. Her blonde hair neatly done up in a bun in order to not get in her way as she did the chores around the room. I briefly wondered for a moment why I kept meeting people who had eyes the same color as their hair, but dismissed it as a weird coincidence.

Jez must have absolute faith in her guide, as she dropped my pants as Lisa was watching and quickly went down on me. Lisa's eyes opened wide as she watched her master take my cock into her mouth.

Funnily enough, my cock had actually increased in size after I had purchased 'Perfect Body', meaning my already above average penis had become a monster. And that very monster was currently in her master's jaws.
