Chapter 95 Encouraging Touch

"I can't find the desirable fates but I can feel the fates that will about to happen." Amelia said with a flat voice and added with an eerily calm tone as if our lives didn't matter to her.

"For example, I can feel that all of us will die in minutes."

Silence descended into the cave as even Aria held her breath after hearing Amelia and snuggled to me subconsciously.

"Sigh…" A sigh of 'annoyance' came out from me and I harshly tapped Amelia's forehead.

"Don't try to act like mysterious prophets in the stories."

Some clarity came to Amelia's eyes and her breathing intensified as she began to sweat like she ran a marathon. The fear in her was too much than I wanted and the cause of this wasn't me as she said that all of us were going to die sometime later.

'According to what she said a moment ago, fate isn't absolute, just very hard to change. So if I try hard, I can live against this unknown danger.' I thought and looked at the walls.

'Are we going to die by the owner of this cave? Or are we going to die by something completely different, like a natural disaster?' I thought and looked at Aria and Amelia.

'Aria will probably die but she has a chance to live. And on the contrary, Amelia will definitely die as her body and mind are weaker than Aria's.'

I didn't know what was about to happen but I decided to go out of this cave. Fighting in a closed space was harder than outside, so it was an easy choice.

I patted Aria's head and moved my hand from her thigh to under her clothes, then lightly squeezed her small breasts to stimulate her and boost her morale.

"Get up and prepare for a fight." I whispered into her ear gently and firmly grabbed her ass, lifting it from my lap.

Then I dropped Amelia's head from my thigh without any caution or gentle movement.

"If you want to live, then follow me or you can just stay here to become food for monsters." I said to Amelia and made my way to the entrance of the cave.

I dissolved the ice wall and got out of the cave. After me was Aria, who was still shaking with fear but lesser than before. It was apparent that my encouraging touch did its magic, making her look forward to the future when our intimacy develops to the next level.

This wasn't impossible either as I knew that I would probably make her my girlfriend or something close to this without any hesitation if my emotions came back.

She was a great woman with good looks and did whatever I wanted without asking the reason for it. Who doesn't want a woman like her? My old self probably loved it but I still didn't know what I would do in the future when my emotions come back. Because emotional creatures were hard to predict, contrary to my current logical self.

Anyway, a minute later, Amelia came out with quick but unstable steps and fell to the ground. Though she got up without minding her bleeding knee and hid behind me.

'Hopeless.' I thought and shook my head at Amelia.

'She will definitely die with this behavior. It is best to focus on Aria instead of wasting my time on this garbage. Aria has some use while this woman can't even do something other than being an upgraded version of my intuition.'

While I was thinking like this, a loud and sharp noise came inside the cave, making my intuition ring loudly.

"Tsssssssss!"

'Is this weaker than I assumed?' I thought after feeling the degree of the alert I received. It was dangerous but wasn't enough to kill all of us.

'Hmm… This must be cannon fodder and after I kill this, I should be ready to kill the main threat.' I concluded and took out a knife from my storage artifact.

Then I slashed my wrist without any care, splashing my blood onto the hot ground.

I cast a magic spell that I didn't use until now, because my blood magic had been weaker than my ice magic. But after my transformation to the Saint of Ilelia, my affinity to Blood soared to the sky. So, it was a good time to use it.

The blood that fell to the floor gathered into a center and solidified, transforming into something.

I took the hardened blood and swung for a  few times, then I inspected my eyes.

This was the cause of the blood magic, [Blood weapon]. It was a completely red dagger made from my mana-rich blood. Its toughness was around [A] rank because of my mana and blood quality and its sharpness was roughly enough for [B] rank monsters.

It was a good weapon for the time being as the danger I felt was something powerful but not so much. Maybe [B] rank mana monster or [A] rank mana beast.

Anyway, after inspecting my dagger, I made another pair for Aria.

"Use this but don't get too close to the fiend." I said and gave these daggers to Aria, who received them with bright eyes.

She was loving me so much that, she was happy to get daggers from me that are made from my blood.

After that, I made ice armor around my body, not so light but not too heavy either. It was easy to move around in it but I didn't do it for Aria, as she didn't like to wear armor like this.

'I should get her tough cloth armor if we survive from this.' I thought and turned to Amelia.

"Go and hide in there. Don't hold me back." I said and shooed her away.

Then, I looked to the cave and took my stance, then waited for the unknown threat who was letting out 'Tssss!' noises.

Fortunately, my wait didn't last long as something huge came out of the cave...
