“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!” Terra cried out. Mirage had her pinned on her stomach and was fucking her from behind while holding her wrists. Mirage had a murderous look in her eyes as she pressed Terra’s face into the mattress and powerfully fucked her. “You’re going to break me.”
“Good,” Mirage said as she mercilessly fucked Terra. “You need to learn your place.”
“Fuck,” Terra whined ass Mirage continued to fuck her poor pussy.
“Master,” Ariel laughed as Jericho pulled his cock out. She gestured at Theia who was mercilessly licking her ass and fingering her pussy. “Make her stop…it’s too much…”
“Come here Theia,” Jericho laid back and gestured for the gorgeous white-haired angel to climb on. She obediently straddled him and began riding him as he closed his eyes and caught his breath. Jinx and Mai were curled up together and Ariel was rolling around laughing and would likely pass out after. He was certain that Mirage and Terra wouldn’t be finished until one either passed out or died. “Fuck that feels good.”
“Thank you master,” Theia leaned down and placed one of her nipples in Jericho’s mouth as she continued to ride him. She moaned in pleasure as she fucked him, “I’ll keep going for as long as you need.”
“You do that,” Jericho said happily as the angel did her best to please him.
Chapter 12
Allies and Enemies
Jericho scratched his neck nervously as the three guild masters sat across from him. It didn’t take long for news to spread about Castle Black having been cleared out and Grim were more than happy to report that they’d fought him and Terra in the area. Naturally, Raven, Diana, and Sapphire were suspicious.
So, they coordinated a visit to Jericho’s manor for him to explain what he was doing at Castle Black. The implication being that if they didn’t like the answer, he’d end up on several kill on sight lists. He could handle being number three on the bounty board but being on kill on sight lists was different. With bounties, players needed to weigh whether the thousand gold was worth the risk. Kill on sight lists, there was no weighing, it was simply attack.
“You I understand,” Jericho said to Sapphire before turning to Raven and Diana, “But you two? I can’t believe you don’t trust me.”
“I trust you!” Diana said while gesturing nervously with her red scaled claws. “But I have officers I need to answer to now. I can’t just run back and say it was a complete coincidence that less than a month after giving us all of your information you ended up clearing the hardest dungeon in the game. I’ll lose the respect of my officers. That’s why I need you to walk me through it. It’s not that I don’t trust you! I believe you gave me us all the information you had.”
“Really?” Sapphire rolled her eyes. “He obviously withheld something.”
“Hm,” Raven was somewhere between the two. Out of the three, she knew Jericho the best so it wouldn’t have surprised him if she figured something out. “Why didn’t you ask Diana to join you?”
“What?” Jericho hadn’t expected that question so early. It was difficult content and Diana was a content clearing monster. Her entire guild consisted of experienced raiders who would have been thrilled to help. The fact he didn’t ask for her assistance was insanely suspicious.
“Because then we’d have needed to split the drops,” Terra chimed in. She glared at him angrily for dropping the ball. “And we didn’t need the help.”
“Not even with Grim?” Raven asked suspiciously. “From what I heard the first fight with them was just a ranger and a monk. Where was Jericho? Why was he in the castle alone?”
“Because they couldn’t shapeshift,” Mirage answered for him.
“Oh?” Raven looked around the table at Ariel, Mirage, and Jinx sitting quietly. Theia and Mai were hiding upstairs in the bedroom with orders to be completely silent. She zeroed in on Ariel, “If the familiars want to answer questions…fuck…that’s it isn’t it?”
“What?” Sapphire asked. “Figure something out.”
“His familiars have knowledge of their own,” Raven said immediately piecing everything together. “I didn’t think about it before now. Jericho gave us all the information he had, but not all of the information they had.”
“I consider that knowledge we should have had,” Sapphire scowled. “My officers aren’t going to be happy about this.”
“Is this true Jericho?” Diana asked disappointed in him. “Did you hold information back?”
“I didn’t hold any information back,” Jericho answered. “At the meeting I gave every piece of information I had as agreed.”
“You know damn well that violates the spirit of the agreement,” Sapphire growled.
“I can’t fault you for it,” Raven sighed. “I should have clarified. But now that I know you’re capable of that type of deception I will adjust my expectations accordingly.”
“What do you mean by that?” Terra asked apprehensively.
“It means if you ever need help again, I’m getting payment up front,” Raven smiled. “It also means that if I agree to something you better be sure there aren’t any loopholes for me to exploit. But, at least for now, you won’t be placed on Endgame’s kill on sight list. But on a personal level, I’m both very impressed and very disappointed.”
“Impressed?” Diana buried her reptilian head in her claws. “I defended you to my officers and now I have to go back to them and tell them you used some stupid loophole? I’m going to look so stupid!”
“I wasn’t trying to make you look stupid,” Jericho looked away ashamed. Diana wasn’t like Raven or Sapphire. Her officers didn’t follow her because she was some cold calculating leader, they followed her because she was kind and fun. Losing their respect wasn’t something she could deal with easily.
“I know,” Diana said sadly. “But you did. You should have told me sooner. At least then I could have said I knew about what you did. I wouldn’t have been mad. But now if I don’t put you on our kill on sight list, I’ll lose guild members. I don’t want to but I have to.”
“You will regret that decision,” Mirage said emanating wrath. “If you believe…”
“Mirage,” Jericho placed his hand on her knee indicating for her to calm down. “Don’t be mean to Diana. It’s my fault, not hers.”
“Rough blow,” Sapphire said smugly. “Tiamat might be a young guild but they’re growing fast. As for Ambrosia, I’m somewhere between. If you make amends by giving us all the information you currently possess, including information your familiars may possess, we could forgive you.”
“I’m not telling you anything! Witch! Hag!” Jinx snapped.
“What do you think?” Jericho looked at Terra for advice. “You warned me this would happen. And you’re always complaining that I don’t check in with you.”
“Really?” Terra scoffed. “Now that everything’s gone to shit you want my opinion?”
“Yeah,” Jericho laughed. “Better late than never, right?”
“What do you say Terra?” Sapphire asked cockily. “Give up the information or end up on a kill on sight list?”
“About that,” Terra smiled wickedly while patting Jinx’s head. Her new spotter had made her cocky. “You understand it’s a two-way street, right?”
“Excuse me?” Sapphire chuckled.
“Ha!” Raven yipped and quickly covered her mouth.
“I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt,” Sapphire said crossly. “You understand that being on our kill on sight list doesn’t just extend to Jericho. It extends to all of you. Not only that, but every one of our allied guilds will put you on their kill on sight lists as well. There will be nowhere to hide.”
“You know,” Terra said. “Maybe it’s the fact I recently killed thirty members from a guild of hardcore player killers…”
“I think you’re giving Grim too much credit,” Raven interrupted.
“And you can’t take all the credit! Whore! Slut!” Jinx said pounding on the table.
“Really?” Sapphire waited for Jericho to object. “This is really what you want?”
“Want is a strong word,” Jericho shrugged. “But sure. As long as Terra’s on board.”
“Well,” Sapphire stood up from her seat. “As a courtesy, you have twenty-four hours to change your mind. After that, the cost will be much higher than some information.”
Sapphire stormed out and Jericho turned his attention toward Diana. He didn’t care as much about being on her kill on sight list as he did about her being put in a rough spot.
“Diana,” Jericho sighed at the red-scaled woman. “Let me make this up to you.”
“How?” Diana whined. “Even if you gave me the stupid information I’d look like an idiot! I’m sick of looking like an idiot because I trust people! I just want to have fun and play with everybody and be friends and this is what happens! Everybody takes advantage of me and laughs behind my back about how I’m so nice and believe everybody and how somebody else should be the guild leader.”
“How can I make it up to you?” Jericho asked. “You can keep me on the kill on sight list. I’m fine with that. But you’re my friend.”
“Friends don’t lie to friends!” Diana said sadly. “You should have been honest with me. You could have told me that you acquired information when you did so I could plan for it.”
“I’m really sorry,” Jericho said. Even if he did have good reasons for keeping the information secret, Diana was his friend and he knew he should have told her. “Just tell me how I can make it up to you. I’ll do anything.”
“Do you mean that?” Diana asked skeptically. “Anything?”
“Kind of, “Jericho immediately regretted not adding an almost. “Just ask.”
“Join Tiamat,” Diana said excitedly as every bit of disappointment washed away. “If you join Tiamat, I won’t look stupid. And you’ll have the power of my guild on your side. I’ll even make you an officer.”
“If you’re looking for a guild, Join Endgame instead,” Raven interrupted. “You have a knack for player killing. Also, I have a lot more resources and you could benefit from my structure.”
“I can’t join any guilds,” Jericho said nervously as the two glared at him.
“You said anything,” Diana objected. “Join Tiamat!”
“We’re starting our own,” Terra interrupted. “He’s already promised me.”
“Really?” Diana’s sadness returned. “Then there’s nothing you can do to cheer me up.”
“I have an idea,” Raven smiled. “An alliance.”
“What?” Jericho and Terra asked almost simultaneously.
“Operating as an alliance would give us the best of both worlds,” Raven offered. “Tiamat lacks military might and organization. It would greatly benefit from an alliance with Endgame which excels in those areas. Endgame would benefit as well by having access to hardcore raiders to party with. As for Jericho and Terra, their value is a little more ambiguous at this time.”
“I suppose it could work,” Diana said pensively. She turned to Jericho, “But I still want you to do something to cheer me up. And you’re still going to be on our kill on sight list until the alliance is finalized.”
“So,” Raven smiled. “I’ll flesh out the details of the agreement. In the meantime, I expect you to form and acquire some members. What are you going call yourselves?”
“Jinx! Idiots. Morons.” Jinx yelled.
“Mirage has a nice ring to it,” Mirage offered.
“Fairies!” Ariel chimed in.
“Seraphim!” Theia yelled from upstairs.
“Dancing Spiders!” Mai’s voice followed.
“Jericho?” Raven stared daggers at him. “Are you fucking kidding me?”
“Come on down idiots,” Terra yelled. “There’s no point hiding anymore.”
“Sorry,” Theia said shamefully as they both walked in. “I know you said we needed to stay out of sight.”
“It doesn’t matter,” Jericho sighed. He looked at Diana and Raven who were both fuming. He smiled roguishly at the two. “Fresh start starting now?”
“Fine,” Raven said staring at the ivory haired angel. Jericho knew from his visit at Raven’s home she had a taste for unique followers. Theia definitely fit that bill. “Anyway, what’s the name?”
“Sin,” Jericho answered. “It’s the only name Terra and I could agree on.”
“I still vote Jinx! Fools! Dunces!” Jinx yelled.
The End
...Do I need to say it? Not the end. Dark, Time, Space, Life, and Death are left. I kind of liked focusing on a dungeon climb. Down the road I may do a series that focuses entirely on dungeons. That could be fun. In the meantime, we're almost halfway! Thanks for making it this far!
