Chapter 2 - Eyes secured?

Daimos 'looked' at the woman still strugling in his tentacles and felt like sighing.

'She is not powerful enough.' He thought.

As much as he hated to say it, he was really desperate for her ability, so he didn't have the time luxury to talk peacefully. Also he was a bit pissed that she wanted to suddenly run away from him.

'is she racist? Or am I that scary?' He thought, but just shook his head. Even he found it a bit ubsurd but not wrong, in this age, things like racism was pretty common. Hating another race was common place for other people or other race, even he could be considered racist, but not to point of killing a whole race because of his hatred, his own racism was more focused on the upper class of the society of the race he hated. A very confused individual, or he did not understand what racism ment?.

"Uhh, can you at least listen to me and stop struggling? i know you are sacred of me, but i haven't hurt you at all right? and for someone like me, that is a big deal you know."

Daimos said, crouching to meet her eye level, or rather for her to see him clearly without strainning her neck upwards."My name is Daimos, former prince of the cthulhu race and also the current preorginator..and uhh...i need your help?"

Likyl stopped struggling when she heard his introduction and stared at him with confusion and fear being reflected in her ember eyes. If Daimos saw her look, he would feel like a complete idiot, but who cares, sometimes ignorance is bliss?.

As for Likyl, she was expecting something more like.

[I am a member/ Prince of the cthulhu race, and i want you to be my breeding mare to prolong my bloodline, rejoice!! for i have chosen you] Followed by some dramatic laughter and her wriggling more feverently, or was it more like

[I am Daimos, Prince of the Chuthulu race, I need your help peasent]. With him looking at her with his nose in the air.

...But she felt like something about him was off, aside his story of not being able to see.Cthulhu descendants or star spawns can regenerate any part of their body, and their minds eye were not ment for seeing. She knew this much, since she had to know every detail about the other races, so that her ability will work even better. The information the Cthulhu race gave to the public was that their minds eye was thier only source of sight.

Unless...

"uuhh... are you still awake?" His next question made her come out of her thoughts.

'huh...Was he expecting me to fall asleep? or did his tentacles have some kind of paralysinig effect?' Different thought's went through her head, but she did not ask, as she could not even move her mouth right now anyways, so she just wiggled her body as a sign.

"Okay, it seems you are awake, because of my lack sight, I can't control the amount of force I exhert with my tentacles when I wrap something and I also can't see if you are uncomfortable or not, so can you wiggle a bit to say yes? I don't want to risk releasing your mouth free." Likyl who did not understand what was going on at all.

'Those he think i don't about him lyinig about his sight? but I don't think I have heard of a prince Daimos before? .' She thouhght and just wiggled her body and almost instantly, the suffocating feeling subsided and she could breath a bit more comfortably, though she kept inhaling the scent coming of Daimos's tentacles and started feeling light headed and drowsy.

'I guess his tentacles did have a pheromone...but not the one i expected though.'

That was her last thought before falling asleep.

"I guess it finaly kicked in, but she lasted longer than others, and she was really... thinking a lot." Daimos said, slowly retracting his tentacles as they slithered on the floor and into his lower back, leaving a bucket sized hole in his shirt."I still need one to pretend I can't 'see.'" He thought, as tentacle slowly came out of his lower back and started feeling around him. If he wished, he could cover the hole building with his tentacles, but right now he was supposed to be in the alliance academy, getting ready for his first planet exploration test, according to the academy, this was a way to allow him get his 'eyes'. He was in his third year in the academy. The academy also served as his protector and his prison.

'I just need time...' He thought 'looking' at Likyl.'and she is just the first pawn on my chess board, the enemy already have their pawns ready.'

He shook his head and slowly made his way to the pickup truck as he dragged Likyl on the ground. Yes that was not how to treat a lady, but carring her would put him at a disadvantage of being easily attacked(since he was pretending ), and carrying her in the air with his tentacles was also a bad idea, as he could not 'see', he would not know how high or how low he was supposed to raise her and he could not split his mind at this moment, due to his minds eye being severed.

Daimos's predicament was like this, his minds eye was severed by the enemies of his race, the Dragon race, as the next preorginator and emperor of his race, they could not kill him as it would attract the ire of the other races to them so they opted to rendering him disabled.

It was a dirty act frowned upon by the other races, but as the shameless race they were, the dragons said it was an accident and even went on to justify their act. This rendered Daimos unable to see anything, even with his tentacles. For a Cthulhu descendant, this was basically killing them, that was what they belived.

The dragons also knew about the false information that the Cthulhu race have been spreading, but they had no choice and took a bet.And after finding out that the princee couldn't see after that, they realised that the Cthulhu race was actually lying. Their minds eye was really their weakness.

'Stupid dragons, cannot believe that they fell for it, but now the problem is in the next mission.' Daimos thought.

The academy where keeping a very close eye on him. He did not need to 'see' to know that the academy had already infiltrated the Elven teams sent to harvest z-viruses from their 'ripening crops'. The cthulhu race were able to create a false tablet that said. [A serverd minds eye can be replaced by a seer].

So in other words, he needed someone to be his eyes, or rather his minds eye.

But that was not what the seer was meant for.

"I hope she will be strong enough to handle it." Daimos thought.

He felt around the car with his tentacles and and entered the drivers seat after placing Likyl in the passengers seat.

"Am ready." Was all he said and the car instantly disappeared from the building.

Several minutes later.

"Are you sure her tracker's location is here?"

"Y-y-yes sir!".

An old looking Elf of about sixty years old, and six other Elves appeared on the floor Likyl and Daimos were a few minutes ago.

"*sigh*, I do not think she is here anymore, damn it! the dragons are going to kill us! who gave you the right to use her like some cheap slut!? tell me!?" The old elf roared at the other six elves who were already petrified in fear.

"I... no...it was squad leader Evelyn, sir!" One of the elves spoke, fidgeting behind one of the other elves.

"Evelyn Rose, of the new 32 man Z-virus squad!!?" The old elf asked, looking at the fidgeting elf, with his gray eyes that held a lot of wisdom and knowledge in them.

"Eep!! yes sir!" The elf said, as she almost fell to the ground, only to be caught by a strong but lean hand.

"When we get back to the galaxy jumper, summon Evelyn Rose of the new 32 man Z-virus squad." The old elf said to one of the elves."She has doomed us all."
