This choice: Just leave her tied up to a tree ! • Go Back...Chapter #4Just leave her tied up to a tree ! by: Sechs You dragged her inconscious body to a tree and tied her up good, you disliked killing, and you even knew of some adventurer´s that would take a monster girl as a servant since they tended to obey those who defeated then.
You weren´t interested in taking one as a slave, or atleast not one so weak, " It would be great if i could defeat a dragonkin, they are the strongest !", you thought with a smile, said to have the strenght of ten men, few were even brave enough to aproach one, least challenge one.

The next morning you released the imp and headed to town, she flashed her tongue at you and scampered off.
No other monster girl´s attacked you that day, so you managed to reach town, you money was short just enough to buy a steel weapon, or more precise a sword, there was a fisherman close by taking care of his catch of the day so you whet and asked, " Good morning sir, could you tell me the location of the weapons shop ? ", you asked in a cheerfull voice, the old fisherman turned arround to look at you, he said notting as he looked at you then smiled, " Ah !, a young adventurer looking for a good weapon ! ", he said more to confim than to ask.
" Indeed, i can´t go up against most of the monster girl´s out there with only a wooden sword ! ", you answered.
With his indications you found the only weapon store in town, there were adventures and normal people inside either looking to buy new weapons or to resharpen the ones they already possesed, you headed to the counter, the clerk at the table looked at you and smiled, " Good day young sir, is there something i can help you with ? ", he asked cheerfully.
You nodded and asked for a sword, his smile evaporated from his face, " My appologies but we are out of swords, since the mines are now filled with monster girl´s and for severall months now we add no ships coming to port ! ", he informed and your jaw droped , " Oh shit, now were am i going to get a weapon, i didn´t train with no other weapon ! ", you cursed.
With that you exited the store in a bad mood, a axe would look too big with you and you didn´t add enough money to buy a spear, and forget about a bow, it would take months to get used to it, wich left you with no other choice but find the remains of a unfortunate adventurer, the idea revolted you but you add no other choice.
You headed to the inn for the night, at the counter you asked for a drink, " If you don´t mind i will pay for it ! ", said a adventurer with only a eye that sited next to you, " You have the face of a person that wasn´t able to get what he wants ! " he said, you picked the drink and took a sip, " The weapon shop didn´t have sword´s, so now i´m stuck with this stick !, mister ... ? ", " Nick, just Nick will do ! " he answered.
" I´m Erik, a pleasure to meet you and thank you for the drink ! ", you thanked, " Don´t think me yeat, there his a interesting story that i would like to tell, you see there his a place in the deep woods where there his a very special type of monster girl ! ", he told while you listened wondering were that story would lead, " This monster girl as the power to grant any wish, but it his not as easy as it sounds, you have to resist her charm, because if you ask for a sexual wish, you ain´t coming back alive ! ", he finished, but you found the story interesting indead, " Sounds dangerous, but right now i would take anything to get a sword, can you tell me were i can find it ? ", you asked

You headed the next morning to the woods, the trees were dark and the vegetation was thick, Nick was nice enough to give you a old shortsword of his, when you tried to pay for it he refused saying that if you came back you could return it, and if you died atleast he add helped you as much as possible, the blade was somewhat blunt but it was easy enough to sharpen with your wedgestone.
A few hours passed and you add lunch on a small clearing hearing steps you turned arround while drawing the shortsword, you saw no one but the sound of steps was still heard, whatever it was aproaching was doing it steadly as it didn´t add a care in the world, a minute passed until it showed itself, you gasped as you faced a... | Members who added to this interactive story also contributed to these: |
