Ch. 5 Under the Eyes of Many

  "Umm" she says "yes" I say "hmhmhmhm" she mumbles "what", speak up" I say. "I I said I don't know how to put it on m- myself" she says her cheeks flushing rapidly.

  My jaw drops as I realize what she was saying. As I looked at her, her face turned a deep shade of crimson."c- cou- could you help me" she says while staring at the floor. Realising what she was saying I cast a lingering gaze across her body before tearing my vision away from her. "Y- Yeah I can it's just that... it's just that it's soft armor and..." I say letting my voice fade away towards the end "and what" she asks while avoiding my gaze "and soft armor is skin-tight, it goes on under your clothes..." I say hesitantly while looking her in the eyes.

  Her face turns an even deeper shade of red than before. "ok" she whispers quietly, "what" I ask her not knowing what she said, "I said o- ok." My jaw drops even lower than before, she looks away. "So how do you wanna do this?" I ask her hesitantly. " undo the armor straps first pl- please." Reaching over I take the armor from her shivering hands, before unlatching the straps. "What now?" I ask her looking down "Turn around." she says with resolve in her voice. I turn my head and body away from her, before hearing her voice ask "Do I nee- need to take off my bra too?" Gulping silently I nod my head "yes." I reply with my heart beating faster and head pounding harder.

  "You can turn around now." she says quietly. I slowly turn towards her my eyes widening, although she has her arms crossed over her chest it still leaves little to the imagination, Turning my head to the side quickly the image of her beautiful partially nude body remains burned into my brain. Quickly stepping towards her I try to keep my eyes averted as I start to set the armor over her head before looking her in the eyes and saying "you have to lower your arms now" quietly. As she lowers her arms I try and fail to resist the temptation to glance down, to see her small, cherry red nipples and wide areola, before looking away quickly. Looking her in the eyes as I tighten the straps around her armpits, I start to lose myself within them.

  Without me noticing it our faces had grown closer together, as I unknowingly lean foward our lips meet, and time seems to stop as I stare into her eyes, once again losing myself within them. For what seemed like an eternity, but must've been no more then fifteen seconds our lips were pressed together as we stared into each others eyes. Grace broke away from the kiss while blushing and averting her eyes away from me before hugging me. "Can you finish strapping my armor on now please?" she whispers quietly into my ear. I nod my head silently before sliding my hands across her bare hips to strap the armor together as she shivers from my touch.

  "Are you ready?" I ask her having finished strapping the armor onto her already. "Yeah" she says quietly while nodding and clutching her spear in her hands. "Aren't you going to wear your t-shirt over your armor at least" I ask her trying hard to rip my gaze away from her delightfully accentuated curves. "No she says" it's not like there's any one else that we've seen here but us" she says grinning before her eyes seemingly cloud over in thought. Reaching over I squeeze her hand and pull her back to reality. "Thanks" she says a grateful smile plastered on her face. Resisting the urge to kiss her again, I quickly squeeze her hand one last time before letting it go.

  "Ok let's go then" I say as I reach torwards the door handle. Resting my hand on the handle I say to Grace "be careful, and stay behind me" as I pull out my new bow and sling the arrows across my back.

  Opening the door I scan my eyes back and forth across the hall searching for any recent signs of disturbance. Finding nothing before me I approach the door to the green room praying nothing will be inside. Prayers unanswered I enter the room seeing a group of five goblins before us, "Rooar" I shout out using "War Cry" before yelling at Grace to Use "Mist of Shadows", as I pull an arrow back on my bowstring.

  Ding!

  Level 4 goblin Archer is under "Confusion", Level 3 Goblin Swordsman is under "Confusion

  Level 5 Goblin Scout is "Hallucinating

  As I let my arrow lose towards the throat of the frontmost goblin, and the hallucinating goblin screams out in terror, I set another arrow to the string

  Ding!

  Level 2 Goblin Spearmen killed!

  As I let lose my second arrow the "Confused" Goblin Archer lets lose an arrow into it's fellow "Confused" Goblin Swordsman's leg. Although my second arrow misses it's target it manages to strike the shoulder of the "Hallucinating" goblin screaming behind it.

  Ding!

  Level 5 "Hallucinating" Goblin Scout has fallen unconcious!

  As the final untouched goblin leaps torwards me thrusting his sword torwards my chest, I crouch down while starting to panic hoping to avoid the goblins attack, before Grace's spear passes over my shoulder and embeds itself into the throat of the swordsman. As the goblin lay dying on the ground I approach it pulling out one of my daggers to finish it off.

  Ding!

  Level 3 Goblin Swordsman has died!

  As I turn to look at the the two remaining remaining awake goblins I see the swordsman cut off the head of the archer before succumbing to the arrow embedded in it's chest.

  Ding!

  Level 4 Goblin Archer has died!, Level 3 Goblin Swordsman has died!

  Finally strolling over to the unconcious goblin and making sure it was out I call Grace over to it. "Kill it" I tell her in a cold voice, Hesitantly she brings her spear up over her head before slamming it down into the base of it's skull killing it.

  Ding!

  Level 5 Goblin Scout has died!

  "Thank you" I say as I embrace her.

  Ding!

  Level Up! You are now level 5 +5 status points +1 skill point

  "Yes!" I say happily.

  "Unholy Shit, Blood contract?!" I say thinking of the dangers this skill and others of it's kind could pose in the wrong hands. Well I'd better hurry up and loot these goblins in case others were attracted by the noise.

  I store all of the items except 3 of the stamina potions and the bag in my inventory. Taking the stopper off of 2 of the citrus flavored stamina potions I down them in one gulp, before holding out the bag and the last potion to Grace. "Use them" I say to Grace handing her the items. She unstoppers the potion handing them downing it the same way I just had, before giving me an inquisitive look and asking "How do I use this?" holding up the bag. "Throw it into your inventory" I tell her. "How" she asks. "Like this" I say.

  "Inventory"

  While she was staring at her inventory screen I decide to check my status. "Status" I say

  "This says that I learned Spear Mastery and Illusion Mastery" Grace says quietly from behind me. "Can you try to show me your status?" I ask her as I turn torwards her. "Unh" she nods torwards me.

  "Come on let's go back, we can talk more when were back inside" I say grinning at her. "Unh" she nods her head, aknowledging what I said.
