Hero Of Harmony

"No signs of life. Enemy eliminated." Said Lazuli calmly as she eyed the tree, which had fallen over, while her arm returned to its normal appearance, causing Alexander to gaze at her curiously.

"H-How did you do that, Lazuli?" Asked Alexander curiously as he approached Lazuli and carefully held her arm while intently observing it.

"Hmm, what are you referring to?" Replied Lazuli as she glanced at Alexander with her emotionless eyes while he messed around with her arm.

"How did you morph your arm like that? Arms aren't supposed to do that." Said Alexander as he looked at Lazuli while attempting to pull her hand back as if it were a lid or cap, of course, without hurting her.

While I was checking Lazuli's arm out, she yanked it out of my hands before she morphed her arm once more, her arm turning into some weird sci-fi-looking arm cannon; it honestly looked pretty cool, but I'm pretty sure no creature should be able to do that.

"Yeah, how are you doing that, Lazuli?" Asked Alexander as he cautiously observed the futuristic-looking arm cannon.

"This is my attack mode; when in attack mod, my entire body becomes a weapon." Replied Lazuli calmly as she returned her arm to normal, only for her leg to transform into a sleek yet dangerously sharp blade.

Squatting down, I grabbed a leaf from the ground and placed it atop Lazuli's sword leg, yet with the slightest of force, she sliced right through the leaf, which was rather impressive.

"Fucking awesome." Muttered Alexander softly as he gazed at Lazuli's sword leg, which reflected his appearance before standing upright.

"Can you cut that tree?" Asked Alexander with an eager expression as he looked at Lazuli, who tilted her head in confusion before approaching said tree.

I don't know what I was expecting, but Lazuli managed to cut right through the trunk of that tree incredibly easily, and she did so with such technique that it didn't even fall over, which prompted me to approach the tree and gently push it, finally tipping it over.

When I looked back at Lazuli, her leg had returned to normal, looking slender and sleek like usual, and just when I was about to ask her something else, a large group of birds suddenly took to the skies, leaving their many nests within the canopy of the trees; following that came a distance and somewhat faint yell, causing me to sigh as that was Yuki calling us.

"Welp looks like we've got to return. Knowing Yuki, she is probably hungry or whatever." Said Alexander in slight annoyance as he shook his head and walked the way he initially came, causing Lazuli to follow him.

I had slowed down slightly so Lazuli and I could walk side-by-side, though as we headed back towards our camp spot, I couldn't help but ask some personal questions since without Soom here, I may actually learn more about her.

"So, Lazuli, what kind of childhood did you have?" Asked Alexander curiously as he placed his hands in his pockets while glancing at Lazuli.

"Childhood?" Asked Lazuli as she tilted her head in confusion while looking at Alexander, who nodded.

"Yeah, your childhood. Like, what did you do during your childhood? Did you play around a lot? Maybe you learned a lot? Did you have friends? Did you explore a lot? You know, things like that." Questioned Alexander lightly as he glanced at the sky while Lazuli lowered her head with a thoughtful expression.

"If you're curious, my childhood was me mainly being taught by my Master as I was her disciple; she taught me how to fight and how to use mana, though she did an incredibly poor job when it came to teaching me about the world and whatnot. She also loved using me as a guinea pig to test her freaking potions, and most of the time, they tasted absolutely disgusting and nearly made me vomit every time. You know, one time, I had even made her so mad she abandoned me inside her underground vault for two and a half months; worst of all, I had no food or water! If it weren't because I was unique and capable of surviving for quite some time without either of those, she would've returned only to see a corpse!" Remarked Alexander with an annoyed expression while recalling memorable events with Lavender, causing him to sport a lovely smile.

I had gotten so caught up talking about Master that it wasn't for another five minutes that I finally remembered what I had initially asked Lazuli.

"S-Sorry about that, Lazuli; I tend to talk quite a lot when my Master is the subject. So, what kind of childhood did you have?" Said Alexander with an awkward expression as he sheepishly rubbed his head while gazing at Lazuli, who had kept her head down the entire time.

"I-I didn't have a childhood." Replied Lazuli with furrowed brows while her words caused Alexander to frown before shaking his head.

"You must've had a childhood, Lazuli; it might not have been the most remarkable or memorable one, but you definitely had one. You know, with your Mom, your father, Soom, maybe a sibling you haven't mentioned." Remarked Alexander lightly as he looked at Lazuli, who suddenly stopped walking, causing him to do the same.

"Mom? Sibling?" Muttered Lazuli with a frown as she stared at the ground, only for her to wince while grabbing her head.

"Eh, are you okay, Lazuli?" Asked Alexander in concern as he rested his hand atop Lazuli's shoulder, prompting her to nod after a few moments.

"Yes, I'm fine." Said Lazuli softly as she shook her head before looking at Alexander with a faint smile, taking him aback as he blankly stared at her.

While Lazuli smiling was a beautiful sight, that didn't take me aback; I was taken aback by the fact she had smiled. I know I hadn't spent that long with her or Soom, but this was still the first time I'd seen her smile in the past three or four days, so I wasn't expecting to ever see her smile.

'Her voice also sounded much more lively than usual. Even when she shows some emotions, there is still an air of indifference around her, but right now, she looks like a normal young woman.' Thought Alexander lightly as he gazed at Lazuli, who was fixing her hair.

"Let us return." Said Lazuli lightly as she began walking first, causing Alexander to nod while he carefully observed her.

The walk back to our camp was completely silent as I observed Lazulis the entire way back, watching her lively self slowly regain her cold indifference as we arrived at our camp a few moments later.

"Hoho, I know my daughter is beautiful, but no need to stare at her like that, Alexander." Said Soom with a chuckle as he looked at Alexander, who nodded before looking away, though he still constantly glanced at Lazuli.

"So, how was the walk?" Asked Soom curiously as he and Lazuli headed towards the carriage, prompting her to glance at Alexander before replying.

Rubbing my head, I shook my head and decided to forget about what happened with Lazuli right now and approached Yuki, who was hauling a deer over her shoulders while standing right next to the fire, causing me to sigh as I rubbed my face.

'Why am I not surprised.' Mused Alexander blankly as he looked at Yuki, only to sigh in defeat.

"Hehe." "S-Stop laughing, it wasn't funny, Alex!" Said Alexander and Michelle, respectively, as they leaned against a boulder while the latter deeply blushed.

"I-It was quite funny, Michelle." Stated Alexander with a smile as he suppressed his laughter while looking at Michelle, who was deeply blushing from embarrassment and shame.

"It was embarrassing! I'm a grown woman with a child, yet I can't believe I did that." Remarked Michelle in embarrassment as she covered her face with his hands causing Alexander to laugh again.

Why was I laughing at Michelle? Well, after I cooked Yuki some food, I followed through with what I had whispered to Michelle earlier today, which was to take a bath together in the nearby lake, though, of course, our actual plan was to have some sex, in fact, we had just finished our second round, and we'd be doing the third right now, but someone wasn't able to hold themselves.

"Hmph! This is all your fault, Alex; I told you, yet you didn't listen!" Stated Michelle in slight anger as she lowered her hands and eyed Alexander, who raised his arms defensively.

"To be fair, Michelle, do you realize how sexy you look when we're doing missionary? There was no way I was going to stop over something small like that." Remarked Alexander with a faint smile as he glanced at Michelle, who simply huffed before folding her arms underneath her bare breasts and looking away.

While I was pounding Michelle in missionary, she needed to pee, and she warned me numerous times, but I, of course, didn't listen to her, so she ended up peeing on my crotch while having sex; though what I think she found the most embarrassing part was that she orgasmed mid-pee.

'Well, Master was also upset with me the first time that happened, but she quickly got used to it and begged me to help her relieve herself.' Mused Alexander with a small smile, only for him to suddenly grab Michelle's arms while gently pushing her onto the ground.

"Don't give me that look, I didn't get to cum last time." Said Alexander lightly while looking at Michelle before flipping her onto her stomach as he prepared to pound her thick, plump butt from above.
