Chapter 172: Lilith's Prep Work
"It's better to let him get his targets and suck them dry. Sure, if we encounter any nasty bitches, he can nail them forcefully."
"Sounds good," Lily smiled while she felt a bit antsy, "It felt so good…I can't wait to do with him again."
Lilith poked Lily's stomach while laughing sweetly, "Little rascal, haha…"
"You just had the taste, so I can understand your craving. Whenever you recover, you can do it with him, and he'll ride you to heaven," Lilith chuckled.
Lily's cheeks turned rosy. "Alright, I'll also go and train now."
"How's your progress towards Prana Palace going?"
"It's around seventy percent done."
"Hmm, alright. You also need to break through to Royal order soon, so you'll speed up your training with resources we'll get on the way."
Lily nodded.
…
An hour later, Rin and Erix were kicked out of Limitless Plane during their training as they opened their eyes.
"I feel like I am close," Rin mumbled. She looked at the atmosphere of the Nether Region and felt the nether wind better than before.
"Then continue," Erix grinned. "This region is perfect if you feel like you can awaken Wind affinity."
"Yep. I'll enter meditation for it. Kiss you later," Rin pecked on his lips and went back to meditation.
She closed her eyes and entered deep focus while spreading her spirit sense outside and interacting with the nether wind in the atmosphere.
Lily was also beside them with her eyes closed while Lilith was on the upper deck, sitting at a table.
'What are you doing?' Erix sent a thought message as he turned to her.
'Creating a Dark Blood Seal for that dragon lady,' Lilith smiled at Erix upon seeing him turning around.
'Oh? What does it do?'
'So you can suck her dry without getting burned by her.'
'Phew…so that was your card. You said you would handle her, but I still couldn't figure out how I would actually suck dry a Royal-order woman of that caliber and power,' Erix wryly smiled.
'Of course, I have everything set up,' Lilith smirked. 'I don't make plans without preparations.'
'Fantastic. Alright, I'll go back to comprehending space.'
'Good luck, haha. You might get a flash of inspiration and enlightenment, which can increase your progress by a lot.'
'If only it was that easy,' Erix helplessly smiled. 'Thanks for everything.'
Lilith rolled her eyes and chuckled. 'No need to thank me. Instead, you can just give me a wilder ride next time.'
'For sure, hahaha!'
…
Afterward, everyone went back to their work.
Lilith was done with her Dark Blood Seal in two hours, and she was free afterward.
To relieve her boredom, she hunted down flying monsters that were anywhere within a kilometers radius of the ship while sitting leisurely on the deck.
From her fingers, tiny dark red strings that were micro-thin spread around and could attack anything within ten kilometers.
As she was a Royal-order powerhouse, normal monsters were like flies to her.
Even normal Royal-order monsters were nothing but akin to mosquitoes.
'Finally, a Royal-order monster,' Lilith thought as she sensed a powerful presence. 'Although it's a weaker than, it should help.'
It was a red and furry ten-legged horse with four large feathered wings. The monster was thirty meters tall and exuded a powerful aura of Flame, Earth, and a mixed element of Wood and Water.
Its speed was fast, and it appeared beside the ship in a second from ten kilometers away while Prana potently whirled around it in the form of a red, brown, and sparkling green aura.
Alas, it only stayed alive for one second before hundreds of faint dark red flashes appeared around it.
*Chree….*
Half a second later, the huge level 218 Royal-order monster was finely cut into a hundred pieces.
In the next second, another batch of dark red flashes appeared as Lilith separated its organs and bones while keeping the vitality-filled meat cubes aside.
"Good. This will be our dinner."
Lilith stood up while humming a tune and stored everything in the storage ring before she walked towards the kitchen table behind her and started preparing other ingredients and exotic spice mixes.
…
After fourteen hours, Lily took a deep breath and opened her eyes.
"Aaah, that was a good session," Lily stretched her limbs and stood up.
She turned to her side and saw that Rin and Erix were still meditating with their eyes closed.
Erix had his Babin Maw Hook in his hand and was currently experiencing its curse.
"Come up, honey. You're done for today, right?" Lilith called out from above.
"Yep," Lily smiled and nodded at Lilith as she flew up and arrived on the top deck.
The big dining table in the middle was already filled with many big plates covered with lids, but Lily felt hungry just looking at them.
"Lady Lilith, is this a special meal?"
"Yep. Your stats have reached the maximum or Noble order, but Erix and Rin are far from it. I'll cook daily to increase their physical parameters and also improve my Mystic Chef realm."
"Two birds with one stone," Lily nodded before she turned around and leaned at the fence while looking at the horizon.
"We are already deeper in the Inner Region. How many Royal order monsters did you encounter?"
Lilith sat down at the table as she answered, "Three only. But the food I cooked from them will boost Rin's and Erix's physical stats by over fifty."
"As for their Magic Flower boost…" Lilith smiled and waved her hand as a bunch of cores floated in the air before Lily. Three of them were particularly bright and big, with unique patterns on them.
"Wah, hahaha, this is perfect," Lilith chuckled.
Lilith shrugged. "It's fine if they increase their stats faster because those two are combat freaks and wouldn't settle for less when it comes to fighting."
"That's good," Lily nodded and grabbed the three cores of Royal order monsters. "Do I filter these three for them?"
"Once you are done, let's wake up Erix first," Lilith said before she looked at Rin, "Rin seems to be deep in an insight, so we'll wait for her to naturally wake up."
"I am awake," Erix said as he opened his eyes and exhaled slowly.
Rubbing his temples, he vanished and appeared on the top deck before stretching his limbs.
"How did the session go?" Lily curiously asked.
"I made progress is all I can state," Erix thoughtfully said. "Which means that I can't say for sure when I will reach the second realm of space. I'll just have to train daily."
"But for now… ahem," Erix scratched his head, a helpless smile on his face. "I need to release…"
Lily's cheeks flushed while Lilith mischievously chuckled.
"The bedroom below is empty, and our Lily is craving her second experience. Go and have fun until she lasts."
"Lady Lilith!" Lily stomped her feet, her face red. Why did she have to say it like that?
"Why are you being shy when you've already done it?" Lilith rolled her eyes.
Erix laughed and pulled her pressed her towards him after pushing her back. "Don't you want it?" he whispered.
Lily's ears were also red now, but her voice still rang slowly and faintly, "I want…"
Erix kissed her and gently smiled before he teleported them to the king-sized bedroom below.
