I maintain a defiant smile on my face as I hear the mermaid's words. The strength she displays is impressive, but I am not easily shaken. Curiosity consumes me, and I decide to challenge her fury with a question. "Beautiful princess, before we continue, could you grant me the privilege of knowing your name?"
The mermaid, named Malina, delivers a powerful blow to my barrier, causing a fresh wave of pain in her already injured hand. Her eyes burn with vengeful fire as she raises her feminine voice in response. "My name is Malina. I am the first Trident of Tetriz!"
The information penetrates my mind, awakening a mixture of fascination and respect. She is the leader of the tridents, a title of great prestige among the tritons. However, I am not a man easily intimidated. I lift my head, gazing at her with determination. "Malina, the first Trident of Tetriz... a powerful name for a formidable woman."
I stare at the beautiful mermaid princess, captivated by her graceful and exotic presence. My admiration escapes through my lips as I compliment her water-carved body. However, her heart is not touched by my sweet praise. She remains undeterred, stepping back a few paces and uttering her words filled with disdain.
"You are only delaying the inevitable, human," she says with a tone of determination. Her eyes overflow with the fury of a turbulent ocean. "Who are you? I'm certain forest elves are peaceful beings. What have you done to them?"
I stare back at her, maintaining my posture. "My name is Atreus. The Conqueror!" I respond confidently. I raise my hand and clench my fist, conveying the determination that burns within me. "The elves are peaceful and weak, so I have conquered them. I used to be someone else with a different personality, but now, in this world, everything will be mine."
Malina shows no sign of emotional distress in the face of my words. Her gaze remains cold and ruthless. "You are not from this forest, are you?" she asks with a hint of curiosity.
I breathe deeply, feeling the thirst for power that burns in my heart. "No, I am not from this forest," I reply with a touch of mystery.
In the instant my response leaves my mouth, Malina lunges towards me with a powerful kick, colliding with the barrier and causing cracks in its transparent dome of energy. I feel the pressure intensify, but I maintain my composure.
She snarls like an angry dog, brimming with fury. "You are an invader who has only brought chaos and destruction wherever you go. You are a creature of darkness unworthy of living."
Another broad smile forms on my lips as I stare back at her. "Malina, princess of the tridents, you are so naive. What I am is irrelevant. What matters is who will emerge victorious in this duel!"
Ding! Ding!
[Rape the mermaid princess!]
[Reward] : Randomly generated.
I quickly look at the system screen and realize that this system is crazy, I can barely see this monster woman's attacks, and he still dares to give me a mission in which I have to violate her.
I have to escape, if this continues, I will die.
I quickly holster my energy pistol, recognizing the overwhelming strength of the mermaid. Ignoring her defiant screams, I decide that my priority now is to escape alive. I open my inventory and retrieve an iron pickaxe, ready to help me dig a path away from the princess's fury.
With impressive speed, I begin to dig downwards, quickly disappearing from the mermaid's sight. Her cries of anger echo through the corridors as she throws herself against the barrier, trying in every possible way to break it. Her punches, kicks, headbutts, and bites are a display of uncontrollable rage, indifferent to the wounds she inflicts on her own body.
"Don't run away, coward! Fight like a warrior," she shouts furiously. But my mind is solely focused on escaping. I continue to dig frantically, covering my tracks with stone blocks to make her pursuit more difficult. The determination to survive guides my movements as I distance myself further and further from her.
However, suddenly I feel a powerful blow hitting my ribs. The barrier breaks, and my iron armor twists like paper. I glance sideways and see the mermaid's hand emerging from the wall. It's a relentless monster!
Without wasting time, I keep digging, now with more urgency. My life depends on it. After a few minutes of desperate fleeing, we find ourselves in a place too dark to see. The atmosphere is heavy, and both of us are sucked into an abyss, free-falling.
The princess's eyes glow intensely, illuminating the entire surroundings and revealing that we are falling into a seemingly bottomless place. A smile forms on her lips, her heart racing with excitement. "Mother Earth won't let a murderer like you live!" she exclaims disdainfully.
I stare back at her, my unwavering determination. "I don't think you know me, princess!" I retrieve a bucket of water from my inventory and say confidently, "I'm pretty sure it will be only you who dies in this fall."
As we continue to fall, the speed increases even more. The princess looks at the bucket of water in my hand with contempt and mocks in her voice, "Ahahah, do you think pouring that water on the ground seconds before hitting it will serve as a cushion?" I don't respond, focusing on keeping the barrier active as I observe the dizzying depth ahead of us.
We collide with the dark ground of the cave, and something extraordinary happens. With an unnatural motion, I quickly pour the water from the bucket onto the ground, creating a thin layer of moisture seconds before touching it. Surprisingly, the water acts as a cushion, drastically reducing the impact of the fall.
Despite the speed and violence of the descent, the water does its job, dissipating the energy of the impact. I feel my body being gently absorbed by the damp soil as the liquid spreads and mixes with the earth around me.
"BOOM!"
However, the mermaid wasn't as lucky. She crashes into the ground without the protection of water, resulting in a devastating scene. The impact is followed by a deafening explosion, a combination of the force of her fall and the powerful nature of her being.
The roar reverberates through the cavern corridors, shaking the surroundings. Rock fragments fly through the air as the energy released by the collision spreads. The force of the impact is so intense that the ground trembles, creating fissures and cracks on its surface.
I look in awe at the scene before me. The power that the mermaid possessed, the way she shattered and exploded in a destructive spectacle, is a testament to her fierce and relentless nature. As the dust begins to settle, my heart races, aware that, despite everything, I have survived the encounter with this formidable creature.
