Chapter 859 Chapter 858: 'Healer'; Chat
Releasing the spell holding up the Goblin's right arm, I watched and observed the monster try to claw at me again with its now free hand, its digits extending and contracting as it utilized the now healed appendage to try and attack me, much to my amusement.
It tried to snarl and snarl at me, but the chunk of ice lodged between its jaws prevented it from doing anything besides releasing a guttural, deep throated growl that barely made any noise, all while its beady little eyes were filled with so many succulent, delicious emotions...
Pain, fear, despair, and rage to name a few, all of which made me shiver as I sat atop the Goblin's chest, my dagger still firmly lodged in its shoulder.
I grabbed it and twisted it some more, snapping the upper ends of the humorous and the furthest side of the shoulder blade, causing the Goblin to twitch beneath me as the pain only grew stronger with that simple motion.
"Shh... quiet, quiet... If you would stop trying to attack me, perhaps we wouldn't be in so much pain, now would we..? Shh..."
Soothingly stroking its cheek, I wiped away its tears with a gently smile before I grew curious, my thumb trailing closer to one of its eyes, which only made it shiver and thrash around violently as it tried to escape from its bindings.
Its hand tried to claw at me again, but sadly for it I was quicker, so I pinned its arm and shackled it?again, before returning my hand to its cheek.
Shushing it, I tilted my head as I stared down at its tear stained face before grinning as I plunged my thumb straight into the fleshy, jelly like orb resting in its skull, causing the Goblin to thrash around in blazing agony as it was robbed of one of its eyes.
My grin widened as I slowly extracted my thumb, the mixture of red and yellowish white liquids making me happy as I wiped off the gore on the Goblin's brow, before tracing out the runes again for a healing spell as I tested more of my abilities.
If I could reattach a limb and get it working just fine, could I do the same for organs and other body parts?
This was something I needed to test, and Mister Goblin version two was the one to help me... perhaps junior would be a better name for him, or perhaps Cousin Goblin..?
Humming to myself, I debated what I should call this unfortunate Goblin as I continued to experiment on him, healing his wound and ensuring his life continued on for as long as I needed it as I learned whatever I could from him.
My attention was stolen from the issue of not knowing what to call this Goblin when I noticed that the tissues of the eye were actually regrowing, which only made me wonder how I could test this Goblin's sight without being able to communicate... before shrugging as I glanced at the dagger again.
Seeing the fleshy orb slowly regenerating inside the socket was interesting, and considering the Goblin was still trembling and thrashing around beneath me, it was likely an extremely uncomfortable experience feeling something as sensitive as an eye regrowing inside the socket, though I couldn't care about the Goblin's experience since I only cared about the results.
When it finally was fully regenerated, I clamped my hand over the Goblin's other eye and yanked out the dagger, staring closely at the newly healed eye and studying its surface, before shrugging as I brought the dagger down towards the Goblin's face, watching as it blinked multiple times, only to begin shaking its head and trying to shy away from the dagger.
"Alright... so you can~ see again... interesting... Though, whether or not this eye is as strong as the original is unknown, and the lasting effects are also unknown. Same with the hands... Perhaps Lady D'Arcon will have some insights on this subject..? Hmm... Well... now that this is all done..."
My grin returned, and for the next few minutes I lost myself to the desire to draw and shed blood as I carved away at the Goblin, enjoying myself immensely as I treated its skin like a canvas and its flesh like a lump of clay; I carved, I etched, I shaped and I molded this Goblin into something new as I did as I pleased, only stopping after my healing spells could no longer offset the damage I was dealing, causing the Goblin to die...
Letting out a sigh, I summoned a sphere of water and washed off my blood soaked arms, sheathing my dagger and cleansing my body of the red liquid before standing up, finally feeling somewhat satiated.
Glancing back at Leraie, I saw the Demoness shaking her head again as she stood up as well, joining me as we began to walk back to the base to get some rest for the night, and soon enough she said "Y'know, Katherine, I have to admit..."
She looked at me, her lips pursed as she stared me in the eye, saying "Any and all lust I felt for you has thoroughly dissipated."
That made me smile and raise a brow, and she continued to speak, uncaring of the things she was admitting as well as how empty my smile likely was.
"You are certainly a sexy woman, and I have to admit I was curious about what it would be like to bed you, but after watching that... all of that curiosity and potential desire I had to sleep with you is sufficiently gone."
"Oh~? And why's that~?"
"I don't mind crazy, and to some degree I think good looks can make someone ignore crazy, but... I have to wonder how Lady Jahi keeps a woman like you... 'in line', I guess, and how she hasn't had to either protect herself or attempt to change you..."
Chuckling, I looked away from Leraie and let go of the slight anger I felt at her words, instead replying "I might be crazy, but I am also the only one who can quench Jahi's thirst as deeply and as easily as she wants in bed~! She needs my 'crazy' to get off properly, and I need her to bring me in line through sex. Besides, Leraie, you don't think my looks give me a pass with what just happened~?"
She looked down at me and snorted, shaking her head as she answered my question swiftly and without any hesitation or uncertainty.
"No, no it doesn't. Respectfully, that level of crazy is something almost everyone would be too off put by, but..."
"Good thing I'm not looking for just any futanari to fill me up then, hm~? Besides, you knew I was Jahi's; don't tell me you thought you had a chance?"
She snorted again, the Demoness grinning as she said "No, no I didn't. Doesn't mean I couldn't lust for you, Katherine. I knew I had no chance, and now I know that if I was stupid enough to even try, I'd have lost not my life, but my loins... Besides, appreciating and imagining you without acting on it is harmless enough, and I know to keep fictions different from reality."
I grinned back at the Demoness as she added "Either way, the other reason most of us think of you that way is how often Jahi so blatantly goes after you. That was why on the first night, most of us did the same; lust is a popular vice for Demons, and the two of you ignited it."
"Or you were all just horny anyways?"
"That too. Anyways, I just felt like chatting to make this walk less boring, and that felt like a good topic."
"What? That you wanted to fuck me for the last few weeks, but now that you know what I'm actually like, you lost that desire~?"
Rubbing the back of her neck, Leraie smiled wryly as she looked away from me, the Demoness muttering "Well, when you put it like that..."
