It was dark out and Damon had come outside the cavern to look up at the sea of stars, of the night sky. The constellations looked even more beautiful and mesmerising than they were at daylight. It was too bad, he wouldn't be able enjoy this picturesque view for long.
Damon sat down crossed legged, and started thinking about his conversation with Isolyn after he asked her to become his wife. He had asked her to runaway with him, but she refused, telling him she had things to do in this world.
She didn't want to tell him, what those things were, but after enough persistence, she tolf him everything. She told him it was because even though she doesn't want anything to do with this people, she still wants to save this world from the Dragons.
Even though it didn't look like it, the way she had said it hinted at her asking for help, which placed Damon in a tight spot. Damon knew although Isolyn has immense potential, she has only unlocked at least about 10 percent of it.
And Damon didn't know how he was going to help her unlock more of it, let alone get himself to become strong enough to fight alongside Isolyn.

[Ding! Mission Alert, Choose between having sex with Isolyn in doing so you're taming her and awakening her Dragon bloodline that even the Mistress Of Pain hasn't been able to awaken, yet.

Your rewards for the second choice are as follows:
- A-rank Tear Of Knowledge (When consumed a third eye temporarily awakens and will show the host the partial truth about the origin of everything)
- SSS-rank Lotus Of Eternal Life (An important ingredient for both alchemy and blacksmithing)]
Both rewards for both choices intrigued Damon, especially the triple S rank alchemy ingredient. Damon had a feeling when he completes the mission, and unlocks the system functions, he might get the possibility of becoming an alchemist and be able to create potions to help him advance and become even stronger.
But at the end of the day, he was a man of culture, and after having not used his little friend for five years, he missed the feeling of his dick being wrapped tightly inside the walls of a pussy.
"It seems, I've become a degenerate."
Damon shook his head, and closed his eyes, and controlled mana throughout his body, but mostly his mind, then he activated the clairvoyance skill.
A second after doing so, he was massacred by an overload of information of possible futures based on his decision. He groaned and clenched his teeth and tried to focus on a single future image, but it was like trying to hold onto anything with buttery hands. The images kept escaping his grasp.
He immediately cancelled his skill when the overload of information was increasingly becoming unbearable. With a frustrated look, he took a deep breath and started coming up with ideas to work around this hurdle, but nothing held up.
He commanded the system to show him his status and he started studying each of his skills with great level of detail, and he came up with a ridiculous idea, which he ran with the system to see if it was feasible, and the system said it was, but at the cost of a large amount of mana.
'Well... this will help me in the long run, so why not use this chance to muster clairvoyance until it feels natural.'
From what Damon learned, as his skills have advance to E-rank the same time as he ranked up, he was now able to see into the future for at five minutes as opposed to the full minute he had when he was an F-ranker.
He took another deep breath, and became serious and tried his best to ignore the nervous energy radiating from him. He first control his mana to his mind, but this time he changed its form to protect his brain from the overload of information. As he created a mana aegis.
He then moved on to creating a Mana Projection outside his body, with semi-tangible energy to help him deal and process the excess of information that come with tapping into his future.
When he was finished, he looked at the perfect astral image of himself, made entirely of his mana, seating in the same position as himself and nodded to himself with a proud smile.
He proceeded to activate his clairvoyance skill and he was immediately overloaded with information, but this time he didn't cringe in pain, as he was able to calmly absorb it.
Even so, the information was still a lot, because he didn't simply see possible futures of a single scenario, he saw possible future of every scenario real or imagined.
For example from simply standing up, he saw hundreds of possible futures of him standing up, in different ways, leading to possible futures of him going somewhere instead of going back to the cavern that led to thousands of possible future of encountering all sorts of things, and those encounters lead to even more strenuous possible futures of something else.
It was an exhausting amount of information that couldn't all be handled by a single person and his mana projection. But the projection was helping him be able to focus on the future of him trying to convince Isolyn to have sex with him.
When he was able to do that, he created a flame wall infused with spirit essence of his dragon soul to create an intangible wall that was able to filter out the unnecessary information he had no use for, and be able to focus on the current one's.
Damon smiled, when the overload of information stopped and his thoughts became clear. But now he had to deal with the most difficult path, finding a successful possible future of Isolyn accepting the advances of someone she just met. And agreeing to have sex with said person.
But as one could imagine it wasn't easy, because Isolyn is a traumatized woman who has a certain level of fear of being touched. How was Damon able to convince such a woman to have sex with him?
Damon did a process of elimination of not just failed possible future advances, but successful one's, like the one future he used his mind infiltration to take away Isolyn's choice entirely.
But there were successful one's he wondered if they were in a sense technically morally wrong, such as using his Empath skill to guide her to that decision on her own, while pretending he wasn't the one who manipulated her towards that outcome.
After going through every possible futures of his advances, he came to a single one, which done wrong could explode to his face, and not in a good way. But if he done correctly it might succeed. The conclusion he came to without comprising his moral compass was to be forth right with Isolyn, but not in a way that comes across as him wanting to have sex with her, but actually wanting to help her.
"It basically means I will have to add a bunch of harmless white lies and probably half truths to convince her," Damon muttered to himself with an uncomfortable expression.
