Chapter 3
Nakato awoke with her legs intertwined with Usagi and the sorcerer's delicate hand resting on her breast. A mix of emotions swelled within her. Frustration, from her loss to the sexy sorcerer the night prior. Lust, she couldn't help but admit to herself she wanted to be fucked and fuck Usagi more. Pride, although she had lost the match was close and Usagi had cum meer seconds after Nakato. Worry, what if Usagi no longer wanted to continue with these kinds of contests. Once was enough for Nakato to be hooked. Nakato slid out of bed and started to prepare for the day.
Usagi awoke to the mesmerizing sight of a nude Nakato gathering things for their adventure. Quite pleased with her success the previous night, Usagi admired the body of her defeated rival. How close she came to losing was deliciously intoxicating for the young sorcerer. Having proved her sexual dominance, she had taken the right to lead the mission to take out the trolls and hopefully fulfill the true desires of the academy. Usagi stretched and sauntered out of bed and made her way over to a bent over Nakato. Usagi grabbed the wizard's hips and thrust herself against the wizards' rear. The slap of skin on skin sent shivers down both of their spines. Nakato lightly gasped and rose from her bent over position.
Rising to her tiptoes Usagi whispered into her rival's ear. "It feels so good to know I'm better than you Nakato."
Nakato whipped around and pressed her forehead against the shorter Usagi's head.
"Just wait till next time." Nakato growled in a way that almost seemed like a purr.
"Oh I look forward to it." Usagi cooed as she pressed her nipples into Nakato's before sharply turning away.
"I suppose we shouldn't keep the guards waiting long. The earlier we leave the easier taking out the trolls.." Usagi trailed off as she started to get her own belongings in order.
The two women packed their bags and made the bed in silence. Usagi opened the window and nodded for Nakato to cast a spell of slow fall. Nakato, frustrated she would be using her energy casting, rolled her eyes and did the beckoning of the winner. The two floated gently out the window and to the ground. Avoiding the town elder was key. The mages made their way to the town gates meeting the captain of the guard. He passed Usagi the map replica and pointed to the northern marker representing the temple.
I imagine it will be a half day journey on foot. But at midday trolls are at their laziest. He saluted the woman.
Usagi rolled up the map and led the way out of the gates. Two guards were at work cleaning the carcass of the troll. Nakato walked over and instructed the guards to place some toxins from the troll claws into glass vials she handed over. She quickly explained this would provide future antidotes for the township and left them to their work.
The journey through the forest was quite easy. The trolls had cleared a path on their way to and from the town. Trolls were not the most intelligent of creatures and the ease of tracking them was clear proof. Most of the journey the women were quiet. Tension of a dangerous fight slowly built and the dynamics of the previous night's sexfight had both of them in very different moods.
Usagi was feeling at the top of her game. Not only had she dealt with the troll threatening the town, but she had put the annoying wizard in her place. The fact that the match was close was far from her mind and she was riding high. With a pep in her step she led the way through the forest. With the skills that Nakato offered, she began to plot a way to deal with the temple trolls.
Nakato held her tongue on the way through the forest. Patience would be key to enact a successful revenge plan. First they would deal with the trolls, but without knowing the layout and landscape Nakato saw no point in planning too far ahead. She began to think through her knowledge of spells and how it might help her in their next sexual encounter. Nakato knew that it would have to happen before the two made it back to the Academy. Otherwise the final months would be a living hell.
As they closed into the temple grove, they weaved through the forest and off the path.
The two crouched in the forest shrubbery and peered into the clearing housing the temple which found itself carved from a cliffside. Scattered around the exterior of the temple there were several trolls lounging about. Doors to the temple were clearly destroyed long ago rather than by the trolls. The rotting wood dangled from its hinges, but blocked their vantage point into the dark interior. The temple's exterior design was clear to Nakato, wispy marble decoration reached off the stone columns lining the entry. The wispy designs continued into the frieze with images of staffs and wands. The dedication for the temple was clearly to Kasra, goddess of magic and mysteries.
"A temple to Kasra, no wonder the school wanted us to investigate this problem." Nakato whispered.
"It must require some powerful magic to awaken the true worship areas." Usagi replied.
"I count 5 trolls out here, but there may be even more reinforcements within." Nakato remarks.
"Agreed. You have access to the invisibility spell written in that book don't you? Any wizard worth their salt does." Usagi responded, trying to gain control of the mission and conversation.
"Of course I do, but I know you've cast it before as well." Nakato hissed.
"I have to hold my concentration on flying, the best way not to make a sound while investigating the temple." Usagi taunted further.
"Oh so you expect me to stay here and wait?" Nakato growled. "Not a chance."
"You agreed to follow my lead when you lost last night." Usagi smirked.
Nakato flipped through the pages of her spellbook and began casting invisibility on Usagi without a verbal response. She knew the sorceress would hold the loss over her head during their quest and now she had evidence. Usagi smiled at the proof of her dominance. Even if the rival wizard wished to contest their fight from the previous fight, Usagi was confident a second win would solidify this new delicious dynamic.
Within ten minutes the invisibility spell had been cast on Usagi. She then drew from within her magical instinct and began to levitate over the camp. Nakato refrained from slumping over. She couldn't let her frustration show, it would just feed Usagi, she thought to herself. Usagi whizzed through the air, over the clearing and into the temple. She counted two trolls in the act of rutting. She quickly averted her eyes and returned to Nakato to relay the info.
The battle with the trolls was unsatisfyingly short and without tension for the two mages. Nakato cast a fiery wall in combination with Usagi's whipping winds which was able to form a serpentine flame which navigated across the clearing trapping the trolls and incinerating them with ease. The two trolls within the temple were unceremoniously killed as they charged out the doors to see the commotion only to be run down by the fiery spell. The two mages then doused the clearing to ensure the consequences of their high level magic did not continue as they investigated the temple.
It was immediately clear the temple needed to first be cleaned; the trolls' hygienic practices were atrocious. But within four hours the Nakato's water conjured the grime and refuse that had accumulated from the trolls and at least a hundred years a wild life had mostly been removed. Mysterious glyphs of all sorts littered the walls and floor of the sanctuary. Neither Nakato nor Usagi were able to interpret the glyph's meaning despite their many years of study. With the sun setting, Nakato began a messaging spell for the town guard.
"What are you doing?" Usagi asked, tired and frustrated.
"I'm informing the guard captain know the job is done, but we'll be staying at the temple tonight."
"Fine, good idea. We should stay until we figure out how to awaken the temple anyway." Usagi notes.
"Captain, the trolls have been defeated. We intend to stay investigating this temple and rest for the night."
Usagi cast the spell. A small orb grew as the words were spoken then rocketed off into the night. The two eat a small meal, build a fire and turn in for the night. They sleep along a cold hard wall resting against one another with a lit fire at their feet.
The next day was a test in patience and failure. The women continued and failed to decipher the glyphs and their meaning. Bits and pieces could be interpreted as long forgotten modes of spell incantation but no major headway had been made. Nakato had begun documenting the glyphs in a new notebook in an attempt to reorganize the information. Near the second nightfall, Usagi gave up.
"We can let the professors figure this out, we've documented all we can. We are wasting time."
"I can figure this out, I'm almost finished making notes. Just one more day I beg of you."
"If going the extra mile leads here to us ignoring the town, the academy will be furious, Nakato."
"You and I both know this was our true assignment. Even if they didn't speak it aloud."
Usagi sighed deeply and sat down. She knew to some extent the wizard was correct, but glyph research was terribly dull and never would be a sorcerer's strong suit. With another hour passing Usagi decided to amuse herself. She secretly cast an illusion spell on Nakato. The wizard now appeared in the nude, not that the woman was actually nude. Usagi held her breath waiting for Nakato to realize.
Nakato walked around flipping through the pages of her notes only to realize her breast in the nude from the corner of her vision. She looked down to see herself completely nude, but recognized the illusion quickly. She had enough of this teasing, this minor illusion of her nude form was too much. Nakato's magic hand whipped across the room with lightning speed and grabbed the neck of Usagi's robe and yanked it up over the sorcerer's head.
"What the hell do you think you are doing?" Usagi shouted.
As the sorcerer started to readjust her robes she yelped as the magic hand slapped her rear. Her concentration on nude illusion of Nakato fell in her frustration. Nakato swiftly moved closer to Usagi who pulled the robes back into place. The two young women were face to face as Usagi finished.
