"So Brother what's your type?"
"Ha?!"
"Come on you know what I'm talking about, I'm talking about what kind of girls you are into, do you like them small, do you like them big, do you like them wild, do you like them with a big ass, or boobs."
Alexander commented, in an attempt to make conversation with me.
Meanwhile, I look at him and asked.
"Where did this come from all of a sudden?"
He grins mischievously, as he began to further explain what he meant.
"I mean come on Sherlock you're an adult now, you became a man after the age of fifteen, and you are well beyond the age of consent."
"..."
"I see maybe you are embarrassed to talk about these things, well what can I expect from a virgin, my poor docile introverted little brother, maybe I should take you to a brothel for your eighteen birthday to celebrate your enrollment at Merlins academy for the gifted."
But to Alexander's surprise, my answer shocks him.
"What makes you think I'm a virgin?"
"Ha?!"
"I mean you are always with us, I have never seen you around any girl."
Alexander backfired as he states the obvious.
"Oh. Are you sure, to be honest, I lost my virginity years ago, she was my first and last encounter, to be honest."
I shot back, not wanting to have the title of a virgin stick on me.
But my brother is the playful, annoying, and embarrassing, older brother who shot back immediately at me, saying this as a comeback.
"I mean virgins do tend to not admit they are a virgin you know, come on little bro nothing wrong in being a virgin either way you know."
Alexander said, with great confidence, but now that I think about it, how many times has Alexander avoided possible child support, I'm sure he has four sons already which he abandoned because he doesn't want to take responsibility.
Then and again Alexander is a legend, the guy has boasted to have conquered over seventy different brothels across the world.
"Well believe it if you want to, I honestly don't care, but between me and you; I don't consider myself a virgin."
"Then who was your first-time little brother of mine, enlightened this older brother of yours?"
"Her name was Maria."
I answer his question immediately, to which he had a confused look on his face while saying.
"Maria?!"
'Have we ever come across a girl name Maria before in our adventures, hmmm... Damn, I can't tell if Sherlock lying or not, especially with his natural expressionless demeanor.'
Alexander said to himself, however, he shook it off and began asking more questions.
"So where is this Maria girl now then, and what does she look like?"
Of course, it was only natural to ask these questions at the very least, but the answer I gave Alexander was something that would forever wander in his thoughts.
"To be honest I already forgot what she looks like, what her voice sounds like, and as far as I can recall I only remember her name, it's been so long since I last saw her, but I do know she had some huge pair of soft bosoms, overall she was balanced in other areas as well, but as for where she is well I can say she is in a better place than this God-forsaken world."
At the thought, Alexander's eyes opened in shock as he said to himself.
'Wait, could it be, no way, the little fuck, did he by chance sleep with a ghost, now that I think about it, Sherlock can interact with ghosts even on a physical level if he so desires, then that means, no I'm not going crazy right, does Sherlock by chance has a thing for necrophilia play.'
'... Well, I'm not going to judge, but I have to admit that his taste is rather unique, to say the least, but dating a ghost I wonder if it's even possible, and is it even healthy, well as long as he is happy I guess, that's the only way I can acknowledge that Sherlock is not a virgin, but does that even count?'
This shocking revelation truly hit Alexander badly, it made him a felt a series of emotions that he never thought was possible for him, a literal chick magnet like him to feel like this was quite odd indeed.
Alexander felt a sense of weirdness, confusion, curiosity, and envy, the result of such thought made him truly wonder how it would feel to sleep with a ghost.
However, he soon eliminates the idea from his head, as he was stepping into a dark realm.
'Awh. My head hurts, let's move on to another topic.'
And like that Alexander and I began to talk about other things such as memories of the past, iconic moments in history, and many other things.
Eventually, both Alexander and I reach deep into the woods of Hale, trees surround us in every direction, as much as an endless sea of greenery, and the sound of breeze swaying through the trees, and twigs falling or breaking beneath our feet could be heard as clearly as day.
"This place looks like a decent place to dispose of the bodies, help me out here little brother."
Alexander said to me, as he tossed a shovel in my direction, I respond immediately to this, as I caught it with my hands.
"Alright I will dig a grave for the bandit, and you dig a grave for yourself."
Alexander laugh at my comment, as he said while nodding his head in defeated agreement.
"Understandable."
With this said we wasted no time as we both began to dig the graves for both the bodies, eventually, Alexander and I got hot seeing, the sun was out at blazing, so we both decide to take off our shirts to cool down if only a little.
The required task didn't make the heat any better at all either, as such Alexander hang his shirt on a nearby tree, meanwhile, I tied my normal-looking work shirt around my head like a kaffiyeh.
About another hour passed by and at this time I made a perfect square shape grave about three feet deep in the ground, meanwhile Alexander had an odd shape grave, but then and again, I was an undertaker in my previous life so I know how to properly dig a hole and bury a person.
The legal depth at which a person should be buried is three to four feet deep after all, with this said and done, I began to take Tifas body, and dump it into the grave, from there I started the burial, slowly covering up the gravesite with dirt once more.
Of course, burying was way easier than digging as it requires less effort, and in no time I finish my part, from the I stuck the shovel in the ground as I wipe the sweat off my forehead, and said.
"Alright, I'm finished."
I said out loud, but at the same time a natural urge hit me, so much so, I hold my groin in discomfort as I called out to Alexander.
"Hey bro, I'm going to take a leak, be back soon."
"Yeah! Yeah! No problem."
Moments after I began to walk away from the place where my brother was disposing of the body, it wasn't too far, a mere twenty meters away to be precise.
"This tree should do it."
I said to myself as I whip out my little brother to relieve myself.
CRACKKK!
"Ha. Is it me or do I hear some cracking noise somewhere?"
But after I look around I didn't hear anything else, as result I just ignore it, but at the same time, Alexander ask me from afar.
"By the way brother, do you have any black shoe polish remaining?"
"Yeah, I have a whole can of it left under my bed, why?... are you going somewhere tonight?"
"Yeah, I have some work to do for Lady Hale tonight, although I want to look my best."
"You mean the village's number-one hottie, honestly are you not afraid of her husband?"
I ask jokingly, to which Alexander replied.
"I mean what can her cripple husband even do, the worse he can do is kill me, but as you should already know that's impossible."
"Hahaha, I guess you're right?"
"Hahaha. Men you can be cruel with your jokes sometimes little bro, however, let's head back if you're finished."
"Yeah just let me zip my pants up."
I responded to Alexander, however at that same time and moment I turn to meet him, I suddenly began to hear a cracking sound beneath me, and at that moment, I lost sight and feeling of solid ground, Alexander looked at me in panic as he attempts to rush to me.
But it was already too late because, at that moment, the ground gave way, and a huge crack emerge creating a giant hole beneath me, and as quickly as it happen, I began to fall inside of it.
"¡¡¡AhhwwwWWWW!!!"
The sound of the ruble of the collapsed earth and dirt could be heard, dropping into the hole below, meanwhile as I fall I soon became unconscious, as I hit my head on a rock.
...
...
...
...
...
[Sometime later]
"Ha. Where am I?"
"Wait. Yeah. I Fall, shit I fall!"
I said to myself as I emerge from the ground, the first thing that I do is touch my head because the last thing I felt was a horrible pain coming from that direction.
However, upon doing this I felt no pain at all.
"Strange I could swear I hit my head coming down here."
But at the same time, I heard a voice.
"Thou art a fine specimen indeed, a rare sort I must say, is thee naught of thy world?"
"Ha?!"
I said to myself in wonder, immediately after though, I turn to my right, however upon doing that I was met with an unforgettable sight.
Because before I came the image of the most beautiful but also the most morbid-looking woman I have ever seen in my life.
Before me, was the unconscious body of a woman shackled in black chains, she was a very tall woman at least over ten feet, her skin was a dark purple, and seem tender to the touch, she have six eyes, although all of them were closed.
She was also naked, but her breast was covered by her straight black and blue hair that runs down her shoulders like a waterfall, and both her hands were chained to the walls above, but her most notable feature, was probably her lack of legs, instead, she had an octopus half with a countless amount of giant black tendrils giving her a morbid but ethereal beauty.
Of course, each of her tentacles was nailed by these mysterious grey and pink cross-like nails that were radiating a light green aura.
But when I look at her I couldn't move an inch, as a fear like no other overtake my being as I watch something unheard of, and unseen before my eyes.
However, she seem to notice my fears as she said to me.
"Is thou art afraid of me, well... I can't blame thee, this form is a form I also share the sentiment of loathing as well, but either way, mortal, let me get straight to the point, thy name is Kthilla, the witch of secrets, and since you are here, may I offer you an accord, for a price of course."
