*9Ether World*
*Hollie Continent*
*Demon Forest*
*Next Day*(Morning)
Racing through the forest becoming no more than a dark blurry shadow Navir was trying to reach the Ogre Clan as quickly as possible, he knew that news travels fast so he wanted to get there before the word.
Even he knew that demons were not exactly trustworthy beings, Bors might try to kill Nancy once he knows that he is now useless, that why he must hurry, though he can't beat Bors or Due he could at least escape.
So with extraordinary speed Navir made it back in record breaking time just after the sun rose up through the forest tree, seeing the Ogre Clan he smile sneaking in, obviously he wasn't stupid enough to use the entrance.
He went around the back and dug a hole through the cave system entering the throne room, inside he saw Nancy sitting in a corner alone appearing to be traumatized.
Draw circles on the ground she had a dark cloud hovering above her."I'm so dead, I've been abandoned, their going to eat me, I'll see mama and papa soon, *sob* I hope there is a heaven, will the God's forgive my selfish ways."She said with a dull expression as she sniffled some snot.
Navir slowly creeped up behind her silently, he reached toward her and touched her shoulder."Nancy, I've come back for you."He whispered by her ear.
Nancy's body froze up like ice, she gently rocked with a passing breeze that came from who knows where and fell on the floor like a solid rock.
She was so scared she was frightened stiff, only when she noticed it was Navir she hoped up with a new warm glow."Sir, you're alive?!."She exclaimed with excitement and relief.
."Shhh, not so loud rude bunny girl, we are escaping into the sunrise."Navir said calmly trying to be stealthy and cool but failing miserably as he stared at a dull dirt wall
Nancy's eyes started to water realizing he came all the way back for her, she covered her mouth overflowing with emotion."You came back for me, I'm so grat-Kya!."She said but was yanked up and thrown over Navir's shoulder like a bag of sand.
."Shh, you're going kill us, now, we're off."Navir said with a tranquil smile as he crawled through the hole, luckily he made it big so he and Nancy can both fit.
Nancy clung to him tightly ducking several pointy rocks that poked through the dirt."Hey watch it, I'm delicate you know, Ahh!."She said before being bonked by the back of Navir's head when he jerked up.
.""You're doing this on purpose aren't you!"".
.""No I'm not.."".
.""Yes you are, you tried to do it again just now!"".
.""No I'm not"".
""Don't you know any other words!?"".
.""No I didn't"".
.""..."".
Nancy pouted as Navir continued crawling through the tunnel, it was harder with extra baggage but with his increased in stats it was still manageable.
Soon he could see the light at the end of the tunnel calling out to him so he smiled, they're going to escape at long last."We're almost at the end rude bunny girl."He said reassuring Nancy.
."Oh yeah, you're right....*sniffle* I never knew light could be so beautiful, even with the coming of night....wait a minute, didn't you say it was sunrise?."Nancy asked as she squint tilting her head, her long sensitive bunny ears twitched.
Navir nodded confidently."Mmh, on my way back it was becoming morning, so the sun is rising..."He said looking at the end also seeing what she meant.
."Oh...."Navir said calmly, he continued on eventually reaching the end and looked up with serenity."I am stupefied."
Nancy on his back gave herself a pinch to see if maybe she was dreaming, but feeling the reminiscent stinging pain snot hung down from her nose and her eyes welled up with tears, she could punch something right now.
.""Human and bunny, what a welcomed surprise, what up, Heheheheh"".
Standing infront of them and blocking their exit was Bors with an ugly grin on his face, behind him was Commander Duel calmly watching with his arms fold.
."Better days I guess."Navir said still remaining calm, he might as well finish crawling out, he did and stood up with Nancy still hooked to his back trembling gently.
Navir now stood face to face with the Ogre Prince, one of the legendary monsters of the world, even for an ordinary level 20 Demon it would take at least a level 40 human to beat it single handedly.
But Bors was on an entirely different level than that, with his unique abilities as a royal of his race, even a level 50 human might not be his match in single combat.
Now on top of that by his side is an even greater monster, Commander Duel, a demon that has lived for a thousand years, having fought in the war against the human and demi-human heroes alongside Demon Lord's and the Demon King.
."Hate to admit it, but I must go back on my word."Bors said with a tinge of regret, he held up a pyramid like device."It's amazing how quickly information spreads with telepathic servants at one's disposal, honestly I never expected you to succeed."
Navir shrugged."I know my abilities, but I also expected to be betrayed by a demon, even so, I have something to live for so I will fight till my end."He said decisively as he clenched his fist.
."*Sigh* you're making me look like the bad guy, enlighten me bunny, what price must a demon pay for aiding a human."Bors asked the bunny girl on Navir's shoulder.
Nancy looked down as her body twitched, her heart feels like it would explode."T-t-the d-demon would b-be hunted down by all n-nine Demon L-lords."She responded with clattering teeth.
."See human, it's not that I don't want to fulfill our deal but I can't, you are simply not worth the hassle."Bors said casually as he shook his head going into a battle stance.
Navir also assumed his fighting stance, he attempted to set Nancy down, however before he could react Bors was already standing infront of him like the story of the weeping ghost.
His eyes widened, Bors smiled at this."Tighten your core human, this is going to hurt, alot."He said with a sadistic grin, his eyes then flickered with an unsettling light.
*BAM*!!!!
.""AgGg!!!"".
*Whooshhh*!!!!
With an explosive force Bors unleashed a devastating punch that resonated with a deafening sonic boom.
The sheer power lifted Navir off his feet sending him hurtling through the air in a chaotic whirlwind as his body spun uncontrollably
.""Kyaaaa!"".
Nancy who was still holding onto him and screaming into his ear disappeared into the forest along with him replicating his shooting star scene when they first met.
The last thing Navir saw was a few black spots in his vision and a screen materializing infront his face as if mocking him.
[*Pingu* You Have Received 1000 Points Of Damage, 965 Hp Remaining]
."Oops, it seems I hit the human too hard didn't I Commander Duel, he's definitely dead for sure."Bors said in mock surprise as he placed his hand on his forehead looking into the distance.
Commander Duel gazed at prince Bors for a moment before sighing."Yes your highness, you indeed killed the human, now unfortunately you won't be able to find his body."He said with a tinge of amusement.
."Heh, I guess so, I hope he doesn't survive less I'll have to kill him next time I see him, Hehehehe."Bors said as he turned around walking back to his clan.
Commander Duel shook his head looking at Bors then he frowned noticing something."Huh, Prince Bors, what's that on your back?."He ask him curiously.
."What, on my back?."Bors raised an eyebrow, he glanced back and frowned seeing a piece of paper, he took it off seeing words.
Bors read the paper and he stopped walking, but not long after a wider grin appeared on his face as he balled up the paper as he continued walking.
*
Hello Prince Bors, this is human speak, ah, my name is Navir, thank you for keeping your promise, see you next time.
Oh, someone name General Morjs is running to the Demon Lord's palace to find his king.
Bye (Smily face)
*
Commander Duel looked at Bors walking away in confusion, he shook his head and followed behind him.
~~
*Few Km's Away*
After having the lights knocked out of his soul Navir flew for almost a mile, blood followed him as a wale of terror followed closely behind with Nancy screeching like a Goblin.
Eventually he violently hit a tree and fell to the ground like a bag of rocks meanwhile and somehow still protecting Nancy as she didn't sustain a single injury.
Navir was completely unconscious by this point and was badly bleeding from head to toe, his internal organs were a mess, his right arm was not in the angle it was supposed to be, his ribs were broken and rest of him was torn up and bruised.
Nancy held up rubbing her head."Ow that hurt tss tss tss, but woah I'm alive, sir we're alive!."She said touching her body happily, however her joy was short lived as she noticed Navir laying on the ground unmoving.
."Sir?."Nancy called out with concern coating her voice but received no response, she suddenly felt an awful feeling in her heart, she tried to stand but the striking pain in her foot reminded her of her earlier injury.
However she didn't have time to dwell on it too long, she crawled on her hands and knees going over to Navir."Sir, sir are you ok, talk to me, please don't die on me!."She said shaking him, he literally fell from the sky how can he die so easily, he was her secret angel.
.""Woooooo!"".
.""Wooo Wooo Woo!"".
Echoing out in the forest were the haunting hungry howls of a demon wolf, its chilling cry piercing the air and sending shivers down Nancy's spine, panic gripped her heart as she realized the danger drawing near.
."What should I do, what should i do!."Nancy said panicking, she couldn't walk and Navir was unconscious, she glanced back hearing the demon wolf's drawing closer.
Her mind raced fighting with the decision of what to do next, she couldn't walk, Navir remained unconscious and with every passing second, the demon wolf's presence grew stronger its predatory aura closing in.
Though fear strangled her mind she grit her teeth in determination, grabbing Navir by his shirt collar she began pulling him along with her as she crawled on her hands and knees, tears clouded her vision feeling her knees being dug out by the hurtful rocks below.
Every fiber and instinct of her being as a Bunny wanted her to abandon him and make it easy for herself, but still she continued on, how could she just leave her savior behind, she would never be able to go on living with herself if she did that.
Plus he did the same for her, he didn't have to return yet he did it anyway almost getting himself killed for her, she couldn't be more grateful and warm.
That's why she made a promise, to this human who saved her life, if by some miracle they make it out of this forest alive, she would follow him to the ends of the world and offer herself to him as per the laws of the bunny race.
And so, driven by loyalty and a resolute spirit, she fought through the pain and continued their treacherous journey, refusing to abandon Navir to his fate.
."Don't worry sir, I promise I will give it my best, till my small body fails me, I promise."Nancy said with an unwavering spirit unwilling to give up.
And finally after pulling Navir's heavy body for over half a mile Nancy's own body finally gave out on her, breathing heavily and her eyes dulled she looked up to the sky with a smile on her face.
."There, I give it my best, everything I had, I hope it's enough."Nancy said with satisfaction, she slide up the back of a tree and pulled Navir between her legs to rest his head on her thigh.
Rubbing his head gently Nancy's eyes became heavy and soon she had fallen into a deep slumber with her arms around Navir's head to protect him.
Just like that there was silence again, only the chirping of the tiny insects of the night echoed in the day and could be faintly heard, even the trees weren't swaying as the wind stilled.
Suddenly on Navir's forehead a mysterious symbol appeared it was an Ø symbol with nine points of violet flames numbering the pattern.
[*Pingu* The Overlord Is Angry, Under The Effects Of The Overlord, Overlord Overwrite, A New Racial Ability Is Forcibly Unsealed]
[Racial Ability:9 Fires Of The Violet Overlord]
[9 Fires Of The Violet Overlord:First Fire Of Regeneration]
*Crackle*
With a gentle spark a single violet flame flickered from his forehead and swallowed up his entire body, he glowed like a light bug.
The gentle flame almost with intelligence also crawled over to Nancy's body and began healing her as well as if saying a thank you for protecting the Overlord.
~~
As they layed there bathing in fire five days quickly passed and it was morning once again, the birds sung beautiful hymns and the gentle glow of the sun shun down on the two.
Slowly opening his eyes was Navir, familiar to his vision he saw trees filled with broken specks of light shining through its leaves like tiny stars.
He layed comfortably on his back in puzzlement as an influx of memories surged back into his mind, he then smiled."I lived, nice."He said calmly squinting his eyes from the sun.
As his consciousness fully returned he realized where his head was, he was gently nestled between Nancy's legs, her feet was wrapped around his stomach and her arms shielded his head.
Navir looked up at the sleeping Nancy in wonder, did she protect him the entire night, gazing at her for a bit, he reached up slowly and brushed her hair out of her face, her chest gently rose and fell meaning she was sleeping.
."Computer, how long was I sleeping for exactly, how many hours?."Navir asked curiously just hoping in his mind that an error doesn't occur like usual, but atleast expected a few hours to have passed.
[*Pingu* By Processing And Calculating The Rising And Setting Of The Sun, You Have Been In A Coma For Five Days]
Navir's eyes widened.'A coma, Five days, ah I see, that's why.'He thought glancing down at his stomach that seemed to be eating at itself, then he heard an angry growl coming from it.
He blinked a few times, then looked back up at Nancy."Computer, how long has rude bunny been awake?."He asked curiously.
[*Pingu* Bunny Girl Nancy Has Woken Up From Her Sleep A Total Of 4 Times, But She Never Moved From Her Position Afraid To Hurt You]
."Really now, she did that."Navir said looking up at her, even he could feel appreciation and warmth, especially knowing that she did it all for him judging by there position.
As Navir stared at Nancy's face her eyelashes twitched cutely, her back arched gently as she stretched, she brought one of her arms up to her eyes and rubbed them both.
.""AhMmm"".
Opening her eyes she yawned strongly as a somehow sexy moaned let loose from her lips then she froze up like ice glancing down.
Nancy blinked at Navir, Navir blinked back at her, she blinked back at him with her mouth still hung open, then instantaneous her face combusted into a fury of burning hot flames shading red.
."S-s-s-sir, you're awake, Kyaaa I'm so embarrassed, don't looking at me."Nancy stuttered in surprise and embarrassment as she turned his head away from her almost breaking his neck as a cracking sound ensued.
Chibi Navir simply burped as he closed his eyes again, smoke poofed from Nancy's head."Oh no I'm sorry, are you ok."She asked in worry touching his body but then blushed bright red again feeling his muscles.
."You're welcome."Navir said after being molested by a Bunny demi-human.
