Ares remained relatively unaffected by the gas, thanks to the protection of his sword heart. However, Frost was already overcome by its effects. Her hands clenched tightly, her eyes turned a fiery red, and sweat drenched her body. She stared at Ares with a hunger that could consume him whole. A chill ran down Ares' spine as he observed Frost staring at him and licking her lips, panting heavily, and succumbing to her desires. She slowly undressed and began pleasuring herself, moaning in ecstasy. She was panting hard and started moaning, after a while she started to approach Ares.
Ares was sweating so hard and hiding in a corner, closing his eyes. Then slowly a hand started to stroke his face and then it started to make its way throughout his body. He couldn't help but open his eyes, only to find himself confronted with an alluring sight of Frost naked body that left him speechless which made him gulped; all his will, he was using to suppress the urge was starting to wane.
In that moment of weakness, Frost kissed him passionately, her hands exploring every inch of his body. Ares' arousal was undeniable, and Frost took hold of him, intensifying his longing. His little brother was already poking its head and standing straight, frost grabbed hold of it and started to stroke it. A mix of fear and desire overwhelmed him, as his willpower to resist waned. Simultaneously, his hands explored her curves, one gripping her breast while the other ventured towards the private area between her legs., as Frost tried to remove his pants, he was reminded that they were still in a game; " FUCK!! I am not going to let my first time be in some virtual game"
With a deep breath, he summoned the strength to regain control of his desires. Determined not to let his first intimate experience be in a virtual world, he refocused his mind and took hold of Frost, swiftly binding her hands and feet with a rope he found nearby. Using a robe, he wrapped her tightly, concealing her entire body from view. If anyone stumbled upon them, they would assume Ares was not rescuing her from danger but kidnapping a helpless girl.
Carrying Frost, Ares hurriedly made his way out of the peculiar cave. Once he felt they were safe, he gently laid her down and unraveled the robe, exposing her face. Upon seeing her tear-streaked, reddened face, Ares didn't know what to do. She covered her face with her hands, unable to meet Ares' gaze as she remembered all the things she did. She began to cry uncontrollably. Ares attempted to comfort her, assuring her that it was not her fault and that their actions were a result of the aphrodisiac gas in the cave. He said that it was his mistake to lose his self-control. He also emphasized that nothing had truly transpired between them, urging her not to worry.
Amidst her sobs, Frost's voice choked out, "So, it was all just a mistake... wahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Her cries grew louder, and Ares felt helpless in the face of her distress. He remained silent, unsure of what to do or say. After a while, Frost's wail subsided, and she looked at Ares with puffy eyes. Her voice trembled as she warned, "If you dare breathe a word of this to anyone, I will track you down, even if it means traversing to the ends of the planet, and I will kill you."
Ares gulped, fully understanding the seriousness of her threat.
As they ventured through the cave, Frost and Ares came face to face with an unimaginable horror—a fully alive and breathing dragon. The enormous creature lay in a deep slumber, guarding a colossal egg in its nest. Despite the danger, Frost was tempted to take the egg. However, as she took a step forward, an overwhelming pressure emanated from the dragon, threatening to crush her. Frightened, she quickly retreated. Ares, observing the situation, decided to try his luck. He, too, experienced oppressive pressure but countered with an angry roar and lightning surging across his body. Surprisingly, the pressure subsided, allowing him to boldly approach the egg, which he promptly handed to Frost. Overwhelmed with surprise, Frost never expected Ares to part with the legendary-level pet so easily. Grateful and elated, she accepted the precious egg, and together, they hastened their exit from the slumbering dragon's domain.
As they emerged from the cave, a carriage came into view. Locking eyes, Frost and Ares exchanged glances and rushed towards it, obstructing its path. The carriage was guarded by two formidable assassins, with the horse on the brink of exhaustion. Frost and Ares hesitated for a moment, considering the possibility of taking on the skilled adversaries. However, their options were limited, and they had no choice but to face them head-on.
In the blink of an eye, the assassins disappeared from sight, only to reappear before Frost and Ares, swiftly swinging their daggers. Ares' heightened sword sense allowed him to perceive the approaching attack, although he was still momentarily pushed back, even while parrying the strike. Undeterred, he swiftly regained his stance and engaged in combat with the level 60 assassin. Frost and the level 50 assassin locked eyes, ready to strike at any given moment.
Growing impatient, Frost launched her assault, casting a relentless barrage of fire and ice spells at astonishing speed. With her triple-speed casting, she kept the level 50 assassin at bay, preventing them from closing in. Despite the significant level difference, the assassin dared not approach Frost, as her Eternal Frost Fire ability incinerated anything that came near her. The assassin knew that getting closer would result in being frozen and burnt to ashes simultaneously, rendering them unable to make a move.
Meanwhile, Ares faced off against the level 60 assassins, depleting the bear shield attached to his armor. He relied on his regular sword skills such as slash and cross cut, taking advantage of their minimal cooldown. Moreover, thanks to his sword heart, the cooldown of all sword-related skills was halved, practically rendering them negligible. Ares continuously unleashed these skills, while his released sword aura and sword intent allowed him to deal some damage to the assassins. However, as the assassins released their martial souls, the situation took a turn for the worse. The assassins, already barely holding back, unleashed their full power, instilling a sense of despair in Ares.
Realizing the dire circumstances, Frost also released her martial soul—the Twin Vermilion Birds. The twin birds took flight, leaving a trail of freezing and melting phenomena in their wake. One side froze everything it touched, while the other side melted everything within its path. The enchanting scene divided the area, with half frozen and the other half melted. With the difference in rank between their martial souls, Frost's Epic-rank martial soul easily suppressed the masked man's Gold-rank shadow demon, giving her a significant advantage.
Witnessing Frost gain the upper hand, Ares decided to release his martial soul for the first time. Instantly, a colossal sheathed sword and a multitude of beasts materialized in the sky, enveloped in a surge of sword chi. The overwhelming presence of the sword chi caused even the Epic-rank Vermilion Birds to tremble in fear. As the sword chi dissipated, a majestic Azure Thunder Dragon emerged, crackling with lightning and exuding an awe-inspiring dragon force. As a Legendary-rank martial soul, Ares effortlessly suppressed the level 60 assassin's phantom martial sword, tearing it apart. The assassins suffered a backlash from their failed attack. Seizing the opportunity, Ares unleashed his newly acquired sword move, Blazing Fury Slash, bolstered by his power-boosting skills.
Epowered by his various power-boosting skills, each slash from Ares' Blazing Fury Slash struck with devastating force, inflicting a substantial amount of damage. The slashes carried both the scorching power of flames and the electrifying force of lightning. Furthermore, thanks to the cumulative effect of his skills, each slash dealt an additional 10% damage, compounding the destructive potential. Compelled by the overwhelming suppression of Ares' martial soul, the assassins found themselves unable to evade the onslaught, becoming victims of the relentless barrage of Blazing Fury Slash.
Without relenting, Ares seamlessly transitioned into his follow-up move, Heavenly Slash. The power of this skill had vastly surpassed its previous incarnation, as Ares' overall damage output had significantly increased. With each strike, it seemed as if his attacks could cleave through the heavens themselves, leaving a profound impact on his targets.
As Ares unleashed the devastating power of Heavenly Slash, the combination of his martial soul's suppression, his honed skills, and his amplified damage output left the assassins defenseless. The force of his strikes overwhelmed them, leaving them with no means of dodging or countering. The skillful execution and sheer power behind Ares' attacks assured their swift defeat.
