Chapter 24: Crystalline
"Well... shit..." His thoughts leaked out a little as he saw a sharp sword aimed right at his throat.
"I asked who you were?? And if you keep staring at me...-"
The nude girl\'s killing intent practically materialized as she stared daggers at Azmond before she continued, "You will lose your head..."
"Hah..." He let out an exasperated sigh.
\'Well... what do you expect from me when you let it all out in the open like that...?\' An awkward look appeared on his face as he thought to himself with a wry chuckle.
"What\'s so funny? Do you really not want your life anymore??" The nude beauty asked with a cold stare.
"I have been here cultivating for the last few years, girl." Azmond responded back with a gaze just as cold.
"You\'re lying... I surveyed this entire place with my divine sense and saw no signs of anyone else cultivating here..."
A gaze filled with even more killing intent appeared on the Nude Beauty\'s face as her large white rabbits bounced a little when she moved her long, slender legs a step toward Azmond, ready to strike him down, but before she could... His calm voice resounded across the small lake.
"You couldn\'t sense that I was here because..." Azmond was about to reveal that it was due to him getting another technique from the Divine Devil Arts Scripture\'s second section.
A technique called the Divine Godfiend\'s Concealing technique, but before he abruptly blurted out the truth, he changed his mind at the last second and decided to slightly alter the technique\'s name before he responded to the girl.
"It\'s because of an aura concealing technique that I cultivate. It allows my aura and cultivation base to be whatever I want people to see."
He finished his reply with a blank look as he waited to see the nude beauty\'s response.
Azmond was confident that even if this girl did decide to attack him for no reason, he would be able to handle her with no issue.
After all, the girl\'s aura as well as her body were out in the open for the whole world to see, and while her body was beyond alluring, her aura, on the other hand, belonged to someone in the Late-Golden Core realm.
\'Speaking of techniques that I acquired from the Divine Devil Arts Scripture, there was another one I got before I met Aqua,\' he thought.
\'It was a technique that allowed me to understand any language that the original creator of the Divine Devil Arts Scripture knew; it was called the Automatic Language Translations book. It was one of the few techniques that I automatically mastered upon obtaining the Divine Devil Arts Scripture.\'
A reminiscing look appeared on Azmond\'s well-sculpted face as he looked back at the Icy beauty, who was laying everything bare before him.
He was expecting a response, and response he got, as she replied, "I see..."
The ice beauty believed every word that he spoke without a second thought as she returned to her original position by turning around.
"..."
It was a view that Azmond didn\'t mind one bit as his eyes followed the two well-rounded mountains of jelly that seductively swayed left and right with every step she took.
\'...She must not get out much...\' He thought to himself with an apathetic outward appearance.
However, on the inside, he continued to appreciate the body of the voluptuous woman before him...
\'Beautiful women in this world sure on a different level than the ones back in my old world,\' he mused with a contemplative look on his face.
\'I have seen the most beautiful models in the world on the front pages of magazines and articles back when I was collecting martial arts literature in that library, and yet... None of them compare to even a tenth of the beauty of this woman before me.\'
After realizing that subjective yet objective fact, he thought, \'It must be some magical effect of cultivating...\'
\'Now that I think about it, my looks have increased to insane levels after increasing my cultivation. Is this girl\'s case similar to mine?\'
Little did Azmond know that it wasn\'t usually possible to increase your attractiveness through cultivation until you had achieved at least the Nascent Soul Realm.
Which went to say that the Icy beauty before him who was in the Late-Golden Core Realm was born this beautiful...
....
"So what is your name, girl?" Azmond asked the naked girl—a girl who still had water slowly falling down her well-developed mountain tops.
"..."
The Jade beauty finally reached her original position and turned back around to face him with a chilling gaze after she heard the unfamiliar man ask her a question.
"Stop calling me girl... My name is Crystalline..." She responded with a neutral voice.
\'...That is why I asked you for your name...\'
A helpless look appeared on Azmond\'s face as he just gazed into the mesmerizing emerald-like eyes of the nude beauty as those same eyes stared right back at him with a deathly stare.
*Sigh...* "...Ok, Crystalline. It has been my absolute pleasure meeting you, but I should really get back to cultivating... So this is where we part ways."
He sighed in exasperation as he bid his farewells to the Ice Beauty and started to turn around in an attempt to leave the shallow lake area.
But, before he could... The emotionless voice of Crystalline echoed across the lake\'s surface and made its way into Azmond\'s ears.
"Isn\'t it rude to leave after a lady tells you her name without telling her your own name as well? Not to mention that you thought you could leave after seeing my bare body..."
A small red blush almost formed on Crystalline\'s smooth face when she said the last part, but it disappeared as quickly as it appeared as her face returned to one without any emotions.
\'...So now this girl has common sense...\' Azmond thought to himself in utter disbelief as he turned back around and let his gaze wander right back to those two large white rabbits with their beautiful pink cherries perked up.
\'Why is this girl so seductive and yet... so naive?\' An awkward smile once again formed on his face as he forced his gaze upward toward Crystalline\'s beautiful yet dangerous green eyes.
"...My name is Azmond," he finally decided to reply after letting out another sigh.
"...Azmond... I see..."
A small smile emerged on Crystalline\'s pink lips for just a split second, but it once again disappeared as quickly as it appeared.
"...Are you going to keep staring at my body...?" Crystalline asked with a lifeless glare as she saw his gaze once again move right back to her two perk pillows.
A teasing smile appeared on Azmond\'s face as he replied, "I thought you were inviting my gaze since you\'ve made no attempt to put any clothes on during this entire interaction..."
"..." Crystalline was speechless at the shameless words that came out of this man\'s mouth.
"Don\'t go mute on me now... I was just kidding, haha~"
A rare laugh came out of him as he held his hand to his stomach when he saw the dumbfounded look she had on her face.
"...You are annoying..."
A small, untraceable smile emerged on the Ice Beauty\'s expression and stayed that way for a good few seconds as she saw the brilliant sight of Azmond laughing his heart out at the lake\'s shoreline.
It was a sight she thought was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen. That was when she took a moment to properly analyze the odd man who had been staring at her this entire time.
\'...So Handsome...\' She thought.
\'...Such a man has been staring at my nude body this entire time...\'
Crystalline\'s face once again took on a darker shade of red as her eyes scanned every inch of him, but she didn\'t turn her head away despite the slight embarrassment.
She was too proud to do something like that...
"You should really smile more," Azmond said as he suddenly appeared mere feet away from Crystalline.
\'So fast...\'
She was too surprised by his speed to comprehend what he said as she backed tens of meters away in a split second.
*Slap! Slap!*
Her two large marshmallows followed along with her as a heavenly sound was produced from them hitting the underpart of her breasts due to the sudden movements.
But, regardless of the distracting sounds, Azmond once again reappeared right in front of her without her even seeing him move.
"!!!"
\'I didn\'t even blink that time...\'
Crystalline\'s face showed a slight sign of surprise as she once again backed away tens of meters, but to no avail, as he was already right in front of her again with a teasing smile on his face.
She gave up on backing away and simply got into a fighting stance with her perky breasts staring straight at Azmond as her eyes glowed with a dangerous glare.
"There\'s no need to get into such a fighting stance... I was just trying to tell you that you should smile more.-" He tried to speak, but he was interrupted by Crystalline:
"..."
She gripped her blade even tighter as her death glare became even more intense, and she got ready to lunge at Azmond.
At least, that was until he continued to finish what he was saying:
"You look far more beautiful when those cute lips of yours are arched upwards~"
A small, radiant smile appeared on his face as he gazed directly into Crystalline\'s emerald eyes, with both of his index fingers pushing the edges of his smile up.
"..."
It was an action that made Crystalline abandon her fighting stance as a dark red blush appeared on her doll-like face before she turned her head away in embarrassment.
So much for her pride...
....
"..."
Azmond took one look at Crystalline\'s cute, embarrassed look as her voluptuous body was out in the open, and decided he would tease the girl a bit more as payback for backing away from him so many times... did she think he stunk or something?
\'Impossible! I may be focused on cultivating 99% of the time but I still keep up with my personal hygiene better than anybody else.\'
Following his disgruntled thoughts, he flashed away from his spot and reappeared mere inches away from Crystalline.
FWIP!
"This shy part of you is also beautiful, but more in a \'I just wanna cuddle with you\' type of way~," Azmond whispered into her reddened ears with a sly grin on his fox-like face.
"!!"
Crystalline was quick to react when she felt his presence so close to hers, but not fast enough, as he gently blew into her small left earlobe with a mischievous grin.
*Whoo~*
"Mhmm~!" Her body quickly got sensitive as a small feminine moan was heard.
She slightly convulsed as a slight pleasurable shiver ran up her sensual figure.
Crystalline quickly covered her mouth and backed up a few steps with an aggrieved look as she stared daggers at Azmond.
"That was a nice reaction you had there~"
His amused expression formed a playful grin that got even wider as he stared at the still nude Crystalline.
\'This man is so infuriating!\'
For the first time in what felt like forever for Crystalline... She showed so many different emotions to one person at a single time... and to make matters worse, that person was a man.
"Even your angry face is adorable Crystalline~ almost like a small cute cat baring its fangs... Although nothing about you is small..."
Azmond\'s eyes once again made their way back to the two large bunnies jiggling all over the place with every movement she made.
"???"
Crystalline looked at where he was staring and got even angrier as she stomped her foot down violently over and over as the ground cracked in a spider web shape beneath her.
She knew she couldn\'t beat Azmond with the insane speed he was showing earlier... so this was the only way she could vent.
.....
After abusing the ground a little bit, Crystalline turned her face away with a cute pout.
However, beneath that angry facade, there was a small, happy smile growing on her face.
For some reason unbeknownst to her, she kind of liked it when she heard Azmond say her name in that way...
....
\'Oh?... This girl is something else, alright~\'
A large, devious smile formed on his face as he walked over to Crystalline once more.
.....
Azmond himself might not know it just yet, but he has been showing far more emotions than usual, just like Crystalline.
It was a series of emotions that he hadn\'t shown to anyone for what felt like years as he slowly got more and more familiar with the mesmerizing Ice Beauty called Crystalline.
