The Sixth School Ch 080

Author's note.

IMPORTANT NOTICE.

Hi Everyone, hope you've been enjoying the story so far. I've put my heart into this story and every time you guys write to tell me how much you enjoy it, it really makes my day. So a big thanks to all of you, especially those who take the time to comment or email me.

Now, the thing I wish to announce both good news and bad news, in a sense.

The good news - I've just finished Book one of this series! Woohoo!!! Yes, After almost a year and a half, the first arc of this story is completed. Yay me! The total length is approximately 470K words long, which is way longer than I thought it'd be, but still, I've enjoyed every step of this journey.

The bad news - I will need to take time away from writing to edit this whole thing! The tentative schedule I have in mind is to edit three chapters a day. I might do more on some days, but a minimum of three chapters every single day is what I can currently promise. A total of eighty eight chapters divided by three comes to about 29 days of editing. So, for roughly a month, I will not be posting new chapters on here. Sorry for that.

Now, to address any concerns before they arise.

i). No, I will not be taking the story down off Literotica.

ii) Yes, I will still post chapters weekly after I am done editing.

III). Yes, I'll also post Book Two here on Literotica.

If you have any other questions or concerns, you can post them in the comments. I will answer everyone.

Every bit of support you guys give me will go a long way in helping me continue to pursue my passion for writing.

Thanks.

And as usual...

1). Feedback from my readers is my fuel to keep writing. If you enjoy my work, please take the time to let me know in the comments. It does wonders for my motivation to write.

2). If you read the chapter, please take the time to rate it. It's just a few clicks of the screen.

Chapter Eighty: Choices...

"Stop!" Came the stern order from Olivia.

Greg, who was already gritting his teeth in exertion, his face beaded with sweat, held the position he was in, barely getting the words out through the strain. "I can hold out a few breaths more," He declared. Despite his determination, however, a swift kick by Olivia to the back of the one leg he was standing on had him almost face-planting on the floor of the cave. Luckily for him, his hands reflexively shot out just in time to keep Greg from finding out if his nose could support his body weight. "What the hell do you think you are doing?" Greg couldn't help but growl at his familiar in anger.

"Keeping you from hurting yourself," Olivia answered him, not the least bit bothered by his flare-up. A sigh left the familiar as she crouched down to his level. "I understand your desire to become stronger, Master. Believe me, nothing would make me happier than to watch you grow more powerful than even your teacher. The harsh reality, however, is that it takes time to reach those heights, and injuring yourself by doing more than your body can handle isn't going to make the process any faster. What you are currently doing is like trying to help a seedling grow faster by pulling it up from the ground. Not only is it not helping you, but if you keep at it, it'll hurt you in the long run," she reasoned with him.

Greg's jaws clenched as he looked away from Olivia. Frustrating as it was to admit, she was right. Greg had advised Shalia not to be too hard on herself over her past mistakes. Instead, she was to learn from them and be better as a result. He, however, was having a hard time abiding by his own advice. Every time he thought to relax and take things easy, he'd remember what it felt like to turn around knowing that he was leaving his teacher for dead. Even now, the feeling left him with a deep hatred for his lack of power. Outside of the times when he was learning with the healer and when he engaged in his more lascivious pursuits, there was always a voice at the back of his mind reminding him that he wasn't yet strong in any real sense of the word. That if he was put back in the situation he'd been in, he'd still have to abandon her to die.

Frustrating as this feeling was, however, Greg wasn't so far gone that he couldn't hear the truth in his familiar's advice. Ardent as his desire to grow stronger was, if he just wrecked his own body in the process, it would be counterproductive. Besides, it wasn't like the familiar had taken it easy on him during this body conditioning session. His body was aching all over from the grueling exercise he'd been put through. Olivia may be asking him not to take it too far, but she hadn't been against upping the ante when Greg had made known his desire to grow stronger faster. Just a week after their fight with the abyssal creature, Greg had been forced to go up from the CONDITIONING BRACELET that made it twice as hard to move around to one that made it three times harder to move any of his muscles. And now, just three weeks later he was wearing one that made it four times harder. Greg had been forced to buy a charm from the Magic shop that would lower his body temperature to keep him from sweating all the time.

Greg shifted into a sitting position in the middle of the cave. This was the cave that belonged to his uncle. After a whole year, they had finally found a use for it. After putting the dark crawler's carapace in a storage ring and airing it out for a few days to rid it of the smell, the cave had become Greg's training ground. His image as the town hero made it impossible for him to train anywhere in town or around it. After all, if people saw just how inept he actually was at fighting, they'd raise questions that he wasn't that interested in answering. While Greg wasn't attached to the glory that this reputation gave him, he also wasn't blind to the benefits it afforded him. Greg didn't know what fantasies of him the women in town had come up with. But with how things had been going, Greg was certain he'd soon be able to clear the mission given by the system when he became an acolyte of lust. It had only been four weeks since the event and yet, the counter on his mission had gone from thirteen to sixty-nine.

His office had become the equivalent of a cheap porn production where everything seemed to be an excuse to get to the sex part of the interaction. Greg had gotten an exercise in seeing how straight a face he could keep when hit with all manner of ridiculous ailments from the women who visited him. The more tame of the women would pretend to feel some discomfort in their breasts and ask him to feel them up to see if he could find the problem. The more daring among them would find ways to draw his attention to their thighs, which they were all too happy to spread even when they were wearing nothing underneath. One bold girl had even complained of a 'fire' inside her pussy that she just couldn't quench. Greg had been all too happy to flood her womb with his seed to help her quench it. Most of these women had other women as their chaperones. In some cases, Greg had been forced to knock out the chaperones using the formations on the seats. But when most of the women chaperones were just as taken by him as the ones in their care, Greg had found himself in the middle of more than a few threesomes.

It took a few seconds for Greg to fully relax and settle his desire to go on training. When he did, he opened his eyes, a resolute look in them as he nodded to his familiar. Several formation plates were already spread out along the edges of the cave in a large circle. The purpose of these was simple, to keep contained any burst of mana or magical resonance that might be generated from what he was about to do. Taking the time to look at the small window at the edge of his vision Greg waited until it enlarged to cover most of his vision before once again looking at the very first page of the system.

It gave him a thrill of excitement just to look at the final number, seeing a months-long effort finally come to an end. In truth, Greg had attained his thirty million lust point target a little less than a fortnight before. It had thus taken a herculean amount of willpower and patience to heed his familiar's advice and not immediately cash it all in for rewards from the system. According to Olivia, while they might not know what rewards he would get from the system, they were certain to be powerful. With this in mind, it was therefore rather important that he be in the best possible condition to receive whatever it was. Two weeks ago Greg had still been recovering from the repercussions of handing control of his body over to Morpheus and still in a weakened state, hence the advice to wait. To have such tantalizing rewards dangled over him for almost two weeks straight had been absolute torture, but finally, Greg had managed to see it through.

With a smile Greg couldn't repress, he navigated through the system to the MISSIONS COMPLETED tab and looked at the long list of Feats Of Lust that he had managed to achieve over the last year. The list had grown steadily for most of that time and then rapidly over the last four weeks. After all, this was when Greg finally started to collect his 'payment' from his teacher for the Maelstrom Ascension manual. Also, while the individual women of the town didn't give feats of lust as a result of their low danger rating, the numbers achieved in one small location contributed to a few feats of lust. The last time he'd looked at the list, there had been twenty feats in total. Looking at it now, there were thirty-eight feats.

If Greg wanted, he could merge a list of ten feats involving the healer only. Three things, however, kept Greg from doing so. The first and most obvious was the fact that he didn't have anywhere near the number of lust points he'd need to merge ten of such feats. Just putting together three of her feats had necessitated that Greg save up for months trying to get thirty million lust points together. Ten such feats would require that he get over a hundred million lust points if he didn't want to turn green with regret at having to let go of the rewards that he couldn't purchase. Waiting for the months that it had taken to gather thirty million lust points had already been a trial in itself. Waiting for years to gather a hundred million lust points was just not something Greg could picture himself doing.

Secondly, was the threat to his life from Fate. The options before Greg were essentially two. Either to make do with weaker rewards that could arm him against whatever Fate was certain to throw at him next. Or two, to stay unarmed hoping for a much more powerful reward from the system. Had the recent events not taken place, Greg would have been tempted by the latter proposition. After being chased down and almost killed by an abyssal creature, the equivalent of a fifth-tier mage according to his teacher, Greg wasn't willing to be caught flatfooted again. He'd take what he can get now even if it was just a sword, rather than remain unarmed hoping for a bazooka in the future.

The final reason came from Olivia. In plain words, the reason she believed Greg shouldn't go for merging ten feats involving the healer was because Greg was weak. If the world's sharpest sword were to be placed in the hands of a toddler, it would be just as much a danger to the toddler as it would be to anyone the toddler swung it at. According to her, anything that would cost a hundred million lust points from the system was probably far too powerful for Greg to be able to handle, let alone control at his level of power. Thirty million lust points for a first-tier mage was already pushing it but still manageable. Perhaps later on when he was much more powerful, Greg could go for such powerful rewards. But as of now, whatever he got for a hundred million lust points was just as likely to harm him as it was to help him if he wasn't powerful enough to wield it properly.

Greg's eyes went down the list of feats as he ruminated on a rather important question, what theme did he want his rewards to take? This was something that Olivia explained to him months ago, right after his threesome with the now former Town-head's wife and his daughter. She'd told him that while he'd never be able to determine what rewards the system would give him, he could instead choose the theme that the rewards would take if seven of the ten feats had a common underlying theme.

From what Greg could see of the list there were two main themes he could focus on. One that appealed to him more directly and one that was more expedient. The first focus and the one that sparked the fires of his lust most, was taking other men's women. Several of the women that Greg had slept with were already married women. This was reflected in the fact that a good number of the feats listed, especially those involving the Town-head's wife, had this as the underlying theme. Greg wouldn't object to getting powerful rewards that would help him engage in more of this guilty pleasure of his.

On the other hand, several feats involved affecting large groups of people. Be it the feats that involved him bedding fifty women from the same locale, or the ones about arousing large crowds of women in one go. The latter of which had occurred as a result of appearing before the town as a warrior after Olivia had fought off the threat that the town faced, saving a lot of the men in the process. Greg hadn't even been thinking of arousing anyone at the time. Had Olivia not told him about it afterward, he wouldn't have even thought to check. While the first option would allow him to indulge more in his lustful desires, the second option would be a game changer. If Greg could affect large crowds at a time, then the speed with which he could accrue lust points would shoot through the roof.

"If you want to grow powerful faster, then it's not much of a choice, is it?" Olivia, who could feel the internal debate Greg was having with himself, chimed in with her thoughts.

Greg's lips pressed together, quietly acknowledging that she was probably right. The temptation to go with the option that would satisfy his lustful desires was very real. Greg, however, knew that he was a marked man. To indulge his desires only to end up dead at the hands of Fate would be Shortsightedness at its finest. Besides, it wasn't like the Feats of Lust were going anywhere. The longer he lived and survived, the more lust points he'd be able to accrue. He could still save up enough points to merge another set of ten feats with taking other men's women as the focus. Until then he'd just have to make the smart choice.

'Anything to add?' Sending mana to his eyes, Greg mentally asked Morpheus just in case the being had something that he hadn't considered. According to Morpheus, all communications between them were secured against any kind of prying even from his familiar Olivia. Greg therefore wasn't concerned that his action of seeking a second opinion would clue in his familiar that he didn't blindly trust her. Being able to crosscheck with Morpheus on any given topic was part of the reason Greg's slight mistrust of Olivia hadn't turned into full-on paranoia. Greg wasn't deluded into thinking that Morpheus cared about him all that much. Morpheus, however, needed Greg to survive and grow powerful if he was going to help the being gain a new body. Morpheus had thus more reason to see Greg survive than whatever nebulous reason Olivia's true self had for spreading the system she created.

'Only the powerful have the right to indulge their desires,' Came the simple reply from Morpheus.

A sigh left Greg. With Morpheus essentially reiterating what Olivia had just said, the issue was essentially settled. All that remained was for him to pick the right set of Feats to merge.

MERGE!

As soon as Greg clicked on the button to merge the ten feats, they turned a glowing bright gold color before vanishing from the list of feats accomplished. The first time Greg had cashed in a Feat of Lust, it had involved the healer, a seventh-tier mage. The result had been four reward cards placed as an option before him. The next time he'd done it, it had been a feat from arousing several mundane women at his father's send-off party. That time, he was only presented with two cards. This time, however, after merging a total of ten feats, three of which involved a seventh-tier mage, Greg was presented with a total of six cards with different rewards on them.

The first of the six cards had on it what looked like several arcane symbols arranged in the shape of an eye. Under it were the words, MANA SIGHT. Greg wasn't certain if it had any deeper implications, but taken at face value, it seemed that this card would give him the ability to directly see mana. From his year learning under the healer and the numerous conversations he'd had with Olivia in that time, Greg knew that different mages had varying sensitivity to mana. Some were so sensitive that they could pick up on the slightest fluctuations of mana while others wouldn't be able to pick up on any mana-related phenomenon if it wasn't already easily detectable. Greg, however, knew that in both groups, neither could actually see the mana itself. In a sense, Mana was a lot like wind. It could be felt and the effects could be seen, but ambient mana itself wasn't visible.
