Chapter 159 A New Realm

"Aoif" I addressed, looking down at her from where she was laying on me. Her hands still fondled at my body, though after hearing me she stopped, her head tilted up from her position as she looked up to me.

"Yeah?" She asked as her body wiggled itself into my lap.

I smiled down at her but it wasn't just any smile, it was a bloodthirsty one. I think I was being influenced by Aoif a bit much as my smile wasn't a regular one. I was smiling a bloodthirsty smile, one that appeared at the thought of invading another realm.

"Wanna invade another realm?" I asked, my smile only widening at the voicing of my thoughts.

"Already? We haven't even consolidated this realm." There was no heat to her arguments, it seemed as if Aoif was just trying to find any counterpoints to my intentions judging by the same smile that appeared on her face.

"It'll be fine, only three of us can go anyways. If we leave either Tama or Delta behind they should be able to defend the territory in our absence. We even have Melia who can control the tree and surrounding nature."

"In that case yeah, of course." Aoif's bloodthirsty smile turned even more savage somehow at her agreement, "Let's take Delta, we can try some of her weaponry"

With that Aoif turned silent as her naked body moved from where it sat on me towards her clothes that were haphazardly thrown around the room.

I too got up, grabbing clothes myself while I watched Aoif clothe herself.

Once she was done we went to the bathroom that was adjacent to the room that we were sleeping in.

I turned on the shower, the sound of water hitting the ground soothed me as I went to freshen up. Aoif undressed herself again, her body entering the shower as she started to wash herself.

Soon after I joined in and started to help. Just as I helped soaping down her body, so did Aoif.

…

We got out of the shower, our bodies freshened up and new clothes were put on courtesy of Tamamo.

After that we went downstairs all the while a smell wafted through the house, breakfast being made.

When we entered the kitchen it was to the sight of Tamamo making breakfast, the sizzling of meat on the grill the source of the smell that we had smelled.

Plates were placed in front of us, the meat that Tama had been cooking plated and given to us. Utensils were placed out and soon enough the food was devoured.

"Tama" I called out, "we are going to invade another realm" I declared.

"Are you taking me, you can take three people, yes?"

"No," I shook my head, "I wanted you to stay here and protect my realm, I don't know if we'll be invaded while I leave so I'm trusting you to do this"

"Do you… do you not want me" her eyes dropped just as her ears and tail did. Tama gave me the most pitiful look that I had ever seen from her.

"No, it's just that Aoif wanted to take Delta so that she could test her weaponry."

"Ah… ok" Tama still looked down but not as pitiful as she did.

…

I found myself in the research hall again, a green eye staring into both Aoif's and mine

"Are you sure, Aoif?" Delta said, her impassive face staring down at Aoif as we proposed our plan.

"Yeah" Aoif responded, a shine in her eyes as she played with the dagger in her hand before she sheathed her dagger and looking back up with resolve and excitement in her eyes.

"Ok" was all the reply that we got from Delta, a confirmation.

'System, transport us to the nearest realm' I commanded.

[Designate companions(if any)]

'Delta and Aoif' I designated, almost surprised that I didn't need the permission of Delta seeing that she wasn't a subordinate of mine and to that why didn't I have to ask Aoif for permission.

Before I could ponder over that I was interrupted by the system, messages popping up in my view.

[Targets: Crown Darwin, Crown Aoif, Delta please standby as you are transported.]

As the messages dissipated from my view I felt myself being consumed by some sort of energy. When I looked around me I saw that both Aoif and Delta were both being consumed by the same light.

In just moments the world went dark as the research hall faded to black. It didn't last long though as soon after my eyes were blinded by light.

…

Ice, all around me was ice as the sun reflected upon it and shine its rays into my eyes.

I brought my hand up to my eyes, trying to block the sun from me. Aoif next to me was doing the same but Delta wasn't, she was scanning the surroundings for something. Most likely she was looking for the realm protectors or the owners.

I tried to find them too but I wasn't able to see anything, the only things in sight were glaciers of massive scale and snow.

"Hah" I sighed, my breath freezing immediately after leaving my mouth. If it weren't for my physique as a tier 3 I would have been freezing but as a perk for being this high in tier weather didn't much affect me.

"I see nothing for miles" I heard from Delta, her voice breaking me from my thoughts.

"What do you suggest we do then?" I ask, turning my head to look over to Delta.

"Shelter for now, we can look for the realm protectors or owners after we get a lay of the realm and a base of operations."

"Ok" I heard next to me, Aoif agreeing almost instantly.

Again I sighed, it was going to take forever before we found anything, I was confident in our speed but for this place to be totally deserted of life didn't bode well to our chances of finding anything.
