Chereads / One Box Man / Chapter 2 - Endless Witch

Chapter 2 - Endless Witch

About fifteen minutes had passed before he left the scene.

Steve was shadowboxing in the street, and at the same time, he felt regret. 

Like he could not live to do it.

"I can't do it!"

He said.

However, he is still moving forward while shadowboxing.

Usually, he gets paid by the people he saved whenever he kills something like this werewolf creature.

However, now the client died from a werewolf's hand and didn't have an income.

He thought since she was already dead, why not take her money too?

Soon, Steve's feet refused to move. 

Like the veins from his brain connected to his feet were tingling and telling him not to do it or move forward with him.

His eyes landed on the purse of the girl.

Steve tried to touch it softly with his fingers.

His hands touched it, and the memory of the deceased head of the lady surfaced in his mind.

Then Steve gripped the purse tightly.

"I'll give it back."

He said.

His eyes are a little teary.

Taking money from a corpse is so shameful that he thought he could. 

However, he could not.

On his way, he felt like a string was pulling him on where the lady's corpse was.

After a few more minutes, he came back to his destination.

His eyes wandered to the familiar street. The lady's corpse took him aback, and the feet left by the werewolf disappeared.

"Where are they?"

Steve said.

He has a foreboding feeling.

However, he shook his head and thought maybe he was just hallucinating.

The corpses indeed had a problem: even the blood they left behind was missing.

When he scanned and looked for every canny on the street, he still could not find them.

"Where are they?"

Steve asked.

Before he gained the system, he had a job, a girlfriend, and a family; however, they all disappeared when the system came into his life.

It's like they are there, yet they can't remember him.

When he is with them, they can remember him. They don't know if he even exists when he is far away.

The werewolf and the others he killed earlier were like that, too. The people would see it with their own eyes and get eaten by those things.  

Yet when those creatures would leave, the people would come to their senses and act like nothing happened, like a person is not killed by it.

"Don't tell me!?"

Steve became a little tense.

He felt like his shoulder and the hair on his body was moving incoherently, like it was telling him that someone was watching him.

"Who are you!?"

He shouted.

Steve's nose picked up something sweet and flowery. His gut feeling could have been better.

Woosh!

He is right.

Woosh!

The hair on his body felt a gust of wind.

"Is it you?"

A soft voice resounded in the quiet alley.

He could not distinguish it from a woman or a man.

It's blurry, and it is weak in one's hearing.

Steve's hands were on his boxing gloves, ready to put them on and throw a punch if something came up.

Preparing himself to blast it all that will get in his way!

Suddenly, his eyes constricted.

In a split second, without him noticing it.

Someone was hugging him, caressing his body like a trophy.

The nose was also on his neck, and Steve could even feel a warm breath and hear breathing in his ear.

"You don't look and smell dangerous like I sensed earlier."

The feminine female voice said.

At this moment, Steve's six senses, sight, smell, hearing, taste, vision, and proprioception, exploded simultaneously.

They are the same as penetrating a virgin Mary, shoving it all simultaneously.

"Is it you?"

The female voice asked.

Steve's eyes felt like he was seeing something beyond this world.

A woman was looking straight at his face while sticking to him.

Black hair, white skin, black eyes shining in different colours every millisecond, smoking hot chest, and a simultaneously intimidating and seductive smell.

Steve can feel it in his feet, back, arms, shoulders, and neck.

This woman was all over him.

Tsk!

Steve bit his tongue.

He could've been relaxed in a normal situation or conversing with a girl.

However, this is another matter, so he opened his mouth and asked.

"What do you want?"

As soon as he asked that, the scenery suddenly changed!

He didn't even sense and see that space and time were manipulated in a split second.

He was just sent somewhere.

The surrounding became stars and space. Steve was not mistaking or hallucinating.

He is in outer space.

Steve pinched his nose so he wouldn't experience suffocation.

Then his eye landed on his boxing gloves, ready to wear them anytime and punch this bitch.

"Don't worry. You can still breathe here."

The woman said.

Steve saw her floating upside down, swimming on it.

"So, tell me, are you that guy who killed that butt-smelling dog?"

She asked.

Her senses were tingling that this was the guy she was looking for.

Inside her head, she was blushing hard and sweating so much.

'Ahh!!! The danger I smelled earlier turns me on so much! Let me find him! Let me find that man that even the current strongest of this planet cannot make me…."

Such a rare occasion after coming back to her birthplace planet.

Her hands were on her face and chest while she was upside down, floating above Steve. 

'The man who made me sense danger earlier, where are you?'

She wanted to know, and she won't let it pass.

"So what!?"

Steve answered.

Voice with conviction.

He is wearing a serious look on his face.

Slowly, his hands slithered to the boxing gloves, casually taking off the one holding on to it together. 

He hoped to wear it.

However, the woman sensed and somewhat predicted what he was planning.

Steve's hand froze.

He suddenly felt like it was not there anymore, missing.

When his eyes landed on it, all the hair on his back stood up.

His hands were gone.

"Don't worry, it's still there."

The woman said.

It attracted Steve's attention.

When Steve's eyes landed on her, she smiled.

"I am Teressa, the endless witch. Nice to meet you."

She said,

Suddenly, she pointed her finger at Steve.

Steve couldn't control his body.

He wanted to stop, he tried to move on his terms, and he wanted to punch a hole through the stomach of this bitch.

However, for now, he could only open his mouth.

"I am Steve, I don't know how strong I am, but I can obliterate you once I put my boxing gloves in my hands, you filthy bitch!"

The sound was like a steering wheel in one's ear. 

"Also, nice to meet you too."

It could be because Steve was angry that his inner thoughts affected how he delivered them.

Angry at the witch in front of him.

After saying those words, his muddle head became a little relaxed.

Only to the endless witch on the side, the things he said made her chest tighten, tighten in pleasure.

She could feel every intent on it.

As the endless witch who roamed to the multiverse, becoming strongest in the dimensions she owned, she, without a doubt, has various abilities.

Like this one, controlling Steve and forcing him to voice out his inner thoughts.

'Such a thought. It means he is not lying.'

She said in her head.

To Steve's surprise, the witch suddenly smiled even more, as if her smile was reaching her ear.

It makes Steve's skin crawl just by looking at her.

To him, the more gorgeous she is, the more dangerous she is.

Black hair and eyes that change colours in every millisecond like it was a thing that humanities shouldn't take a good look at of their soul would be consumed.

"Interesting."

She said,

Soon her body divided into two, and then to four, up to a thousand copies of her surrounded Steve.

An accelerated breathing rate made Steve's breath incoherent.

The feeling of being in a container for her to play with, and there's a lot of this crazy woman, owning him, like a spider pet.

Suddenly, all of them turned to look at Steve.

"I, Teressa Endless, I am amazed."

All of her said at the same time.

"If I manipulate the time to back the times I will meet you in another timeline, I can see myself being stuck in there and killed by you in those timelines."

She explained.

She is showcasing her various abilities just by saying those words to Steve.

"Amazing, you are right. You are the strongest."

She acknowledged.

The other copies of her also stopped.

Suddenly all of her raised their hands on Steve and opened their mouths.

"However…"

They said,

"I can read your weakness."

Hearing this, Steve froze.

However, the woman still needs to be finished.

"Don't worry. I won't pry on it."

She said,

All of a sudden, her clones disappeared. 

"It's a pity that I won't be able to see how your power works. Someday maybe I'll find out."

She said as she held Steve on his face.

"You owe me now since none of these lower-level species can stop my spell unless they are stronger than me."

She said,

Her voice was confident and relaxed.

What she is saying is not a joke. Just being calm is enough proof of it.

What did she do?

Steve has no idea.

Endless witch tone felt like she already had everything on Steve's head.

"Don't worry. I won't give you any more. It's just a simple spell where your mind would be protected whenever you are in your weak form."

She said,

Then she caresses her face gently.

"No matter how strong your other mysterious half is, do not underestimate the coming game."

She kissed him on his lips. Steve was even more in distress because of it. After that, the witch pulled her lips away and continued.

"As you reach the 10th order, you'll be invited to that game whether you like it. However, never worry. The game won't know your ability. It's only there to read it for you so you can use it in the best way."

Soon, Steve's vision changed.

He was sent back to where he came from.

Seeing the familiar bricks, shine, walls, etc.

He heaved a sigh of relief.

In the sky, the woman had her brow furrowed.

"He is wise. He knew that someone might read his mind, so he used all his thinking thoroughly in the strongest version of himself, the one that's making my feet quiver."

She said,

However, she might sound like she is worried, but her face says something else.

"Scary… terrifying…"

She said as she hugged herself, caressing herself.

"If I read his mind on the other side, I'm afraid that my mind would be murdered too, and I, the Endless witch, would perish right there."

After that, the Endless Witch rolled over up in the sky while she was blushing hard.

"The danger, this danger, I love this. A pity, if I read his mind, he would feel it and would murder me with the cost of his life, yet we'll, I still have time on my side."

She spoke.

After taking another good look at where Steve was, her body became transparent with a smile.
