After teasing the guy till he's beet-red, I decided to say my goodbyes since I was actually supposed to be doing my alchemy gig before he called out. As I stood up, he stood up as well and asked if he could accompany to the forest. It was a total red flag, right? Going to the forest with a man that isn't that close to you may be a red flag back on earth but here, that is a total invitation to do naughty stuff in the forest, not that I'll jump on him the first ti I get. I really don't know what this guy is thinking, getting himself willingly into that situation. I sighed and let him follow since he was totally my type anyways.
As I was walking out of the territory gates, I made sure to be alert at all tis. I am already used to people watching my every move and I have a tail from Noir right now but still, new tails may suddenly appear all of a sudden whoch may not be here simply for observing. As for this guy who is openly following around, I knew what he was the first ti I saw him. He maybe trying to hide it by acting as humanly as possible or by hiding his scent but I am different. I am on disguise too so it takes one to know one, right? It is already a common thing to see tall, tanned and muscular n at the port since the jobs in there require such physiques so working there gave him the perfect cover, I guess. He is definitely a mystique from the giant race, and one at that is in heat too. I don't know how he can keep his cool and his sanity since other races definitely don't have such ability based on the information I am getting from my various sources. Don't get wrong. I am not complaining about him following or him being on a disguise or anything. The giant race are known for their tall and muscular physiques, as well their higher stamina and strength compared to most of the other races. You then add the fact that their body parts are bigger compared to others too if you know what I an. (Author's Note: Yes, we know what you an about what's big. *winks*) Is my mont of appreciation (gave him a tip at Bliss and then walked away) gave him a wild idea that I may be interested in helping him deal with his heat? What in the damn world is this event again? Why am I eting another NPL? Yes, it is not at NPC but an NPL which ans New Potential Lover. Is it the ti again for the gods of this world to send a parcel and this ti, this man is inside? I could only sigh at the situation I am in.
I decided to just look for things to bring my mind away from the fact that my companion is a giant who is in heat trying to get his chance with . I kept myself busy thinking about how to deal with this situation I am in when the guy suddenly spoke, "I know your na was Selene but you may have not known mine. I am not stalking you or anything. I just heard so of the guys at the port call your na out loud. My na is Makisig, by the way." I looked back at him and smiled. I simply replied, "It was nice to et you." After my short response, I placed my attention back to mapping the whole area like I always did with forests and places I have visited the first ti. I also made sure to look into the rich variety of flora and fauna of this forest. I checked it out and compared it to the knowledge I have read in all the books I have read since I ca to this world and that from my inherited mories as well. As for Makisig, he kept quiet most of the ti but was very observant with the plants that I was picking and he even volunteered to carry so of my stuff. He also helped hunt and butcher so of he animals we caught. I taught him here and there on which parts van be sold at the alchemy shop if he's interested in joining the sa gig I do. He seems to be taking note of the things I have been teaching him like the nas of the plants and animals, their dofferent parts and their uses. He also asks questions about more specific iformation once in a while. I am kind of a workaholic when it cos to being a chef and an alchemist so I couldn't help but be extra energetic when soone asks to explain the plants and their uses in cooking, dicine and alchemy. I admitted to him that I am currently an interdiate alchemist and I have a fascination with plants or what you call botany. The guy also looks like he's a very curious child as well. I even offered him if he wanted to be my apprentice and he readily agreed with his head bobbing up and down cutely. Since he was very interested in learning about the things found in the wild, I gave my new apprentice a copy of the book of flora and fauna I created during my outing in eastern forest since that is the forest nearest the sanctuary of the giants and should be the most useful for him. I don't want him to notice I knew of his origins so I also gave him a copy of another flora and fauna book which was about from the northern forest this ti. I also promised to give him a copy of the one from here, the south forest, once I am done organizing all the information into a book.
We used about two hours to go around the area. I saw him furrowing his brows quite a number of tis maybe because he is wondering why we never stopped to have a breather and kept going around the forest in a quick pace at that too. I ate food and drank while walking as well as if I have been doing these things like it was an everyday activity. As a human, even if I am a woman who is of the stronger gender in this world, I was supposed to still feel a bit tired after about an hour of quick walking, right? Well, if he doesn't ask anything about why I am not getting tired, I would pretend that I don't notice his confusion. Let's see how much weird things about can he take before his curiousity forces him to ask the questions that must be piling up in his head right now.
After two hours of non-stop walking, we finally finished what we ca in the forest for. We saw a small clear lake along the way and decided to go back there to have a little dip. That lake seems to be enveloped with mystique mana for so reason so I was really curious and wanted to have a look. The other guy just followed along just like he always did. Once we are in the like, I removed my outer clothing and left only my underwear. Makisig just stared at looking dumbstruck. He's definitely a virgin. I rolled my eyes and told him to have a dip as well. He seed to have gotten his gears back and he removed his clothes as well until only his loincloth was left. I thank the gods for this latest parcel.
As I dipped one of my feet on the lake, I felt like I was struck by lightning and imdiately brought it out. This lake as for the mories that flooded in my head, had a peculiar use. It expedites heat (if you aren't yet) or enhances it (if you are already in heat) and increases fertility within 3 days from the ti a mystique bathes here. If a human bathes here, they will simply enjoying so healing and rejuvenating effects. How amusing and coincidental that I have soone with here that fits the bill. I don't think most of the people in this area notice these effects though. I felt soone underwater, he must be a guardian of so sort. As for that did not need any of the effects, I jumped right in just to enjoy the cool water on my skin.
The other guy seed to be wondering why I suddenly took my foot back and stopped for a few seconds. He curiously looked at the water then almost stopped when I suddenly jumped in with a splash. I swam a bit and looked down and saw what seems like a huge fish. I couldn't see it that clearly since it was too deep and was in the dark part of the lake. As for my companion, he jumped in too and that was when the effects of the lake rushed into his body all at the sa ti. Yeah, berate . It was a trap I set up for the guy who went to the forest with a stranger (). Let's wait and see what happens next.
