Gathering Husbands with a System in a Game Like World [BL]
Chapter 68: Sugar"Good morning, Sugar."
Elias stood near the window with the mission booklet in one hand, gazing at Kai with that lazy, hungry look that usually meant trouble. Kai smiled despite finding the nickname awkward and weird.
"Please don’t call me that," he said, chuckling.
Elias was already walking toward him with the expression of a man who had decided the morning was going to start a certain way. Kai sighed internally. He knew what this meant. With Elias, horniness had no schedule, it could literally come anytime. He sighed, he wasn’t exactly in the mood for any sexual act now.
The familiar chime of the System sounded in his mind, softer and clearer than before or maybe was it the fact that he had missed it so very much.
[Warning. Sexual intent has been detected emitting from Candidate 004.]
I know this by the way, i am not blind.
"Tell me," Elias growled in that low voice Kai hated loving, "aren’t you my sugar?"
The sound alone made Kai’s thoughts scatter for a second, all of a sudden he was in the mood for sexual acts and the nastiest of them too. Elias reached the bed, climbed over him without asking, and pinned his wrists lightly against the mattress.
"You’re really going to do this?," Kai muttered.
" you’re already hard. Don’t act brand new, this wouldn’t be our first time"
"Yes, but..." Kai couldn’t get his words out.
Elias kissed him roughly, all teeth and heat, then dragged his mouth down Kai’s throat. One hand shoved the blanket aside and went into Kai’s pants and then wrapped around Kai’s cock, stroking him with practiced, filthy confidence. Kai’s breath hitched. Elias didn’t waste time. He jerked him with firm, steady pulls while murmuring filthy praise against his skin.
"Look at you. Already leaking for me this early. Fucking perfect you make me want to do the nastiest things to you"
Kai bit back a sound as Elias went lower pulled off his pants, spreading his legs and licking a slow, wet stripe between his cheeks before circling his hole with his tongue. The sudden heat and pressure made Kai’s back arch. Elias ate him out with the same focused intensity he brought to everything else it was messy, it was thorough, and completely shameless all this while his hand kept working Kai’s cock in short, tight strokes.
It didn’t last long. Kai came with a choked curse,
"Fuck!" spilling over Elias’s fist while Elias’s tongue stayed pressed against him. Elias wiped his hand on the sheets like it was nothing and sat back with a satisfied smirk.
"There. Now you’re awake."
Kai glared at him, still catching his breath.
"Don’t you want me to get you off?"
"Nope, your satisfaction was my concern today"
Kai shrugged, he didn’t bother pushing it. He cleaned up, He dressed up in the exact same clothes Elias had taken off earlier.
They ate the ridiculous A-rank breakfast in relative quiet before Elias brought up the mission again. Kai listened, then shook his head as a random idea suddenly popped up in it. An idea so good he literally gasped.
Ofcourse!
Elias stared at him suspiciously.
"We’re not going to find anything useful just asking around. The Red Ledger as we know is too careful."
Elias raised an eyebrow.
"So what’s your genius plan then Sugar?"
Kai ignored the tacky nickname, now that the sex had happened, he discovered that he wasn’t feeling the name and wanted nothing associated with it. But he wasn’t about to tell Elias though.
"We make them come to us" he continued
"We take high-visibility missions. Build reputation fast. Make enough noise that they decide we’re worth recruiting... or eliminating."
Elias stared at him for a second, then grinned.
"That’s actually smart. Very smart. I like it so much that i could let you fuck me right now"
Kai’s eyes widened " really?" This was literally what he had been wanting for quite sometime. The urge to be the top, he had subconsciously taken the role of being submissive in this world that the had forgotten his roots.
Elias laughed loudly, ofcourse the scumbag was fucking with him. The thought of Elias bottoming was unheard of so why did Kai almost believe it.
"You should have seen your face just now, you really want to be ontop of me so bad?" He said and laughed the more.
Kai frowned and sighed loudly.
"BACK to our objective...we get famous enough to be approached that’s the plan"
The system chimed in agreement.
[Suggestion aligns with optimal approach. Probability of Red Ledger contact increases with elevated regional reputation.]
"Then we head to the Guild this afternoon and start stacking commissions."
Elias said and then leaned back in his chair.
"Those pricks should have damn near approached us already. We literally took down a world-ending entity that’s reason enough to be approached" he said.
"Maybe they’ve been trying to deduce our locations you could never know."
"Or maybe they’re afraid and keeping Thier distance knowing I’d snap their necks in an instant."
Kai gave him a flat look.
"You aren’t the only powerful person in the world, Elias. Stop overestimating yourself i am sure the red Ledgers of all organisations have people as powerful more powerful than you"
Elias frowned, then shook his head and chuckled with a sly expression on his face. A confident gesture which could only mean one thing.....
"You really underestimate me. I’m stronger than you know." he said finally.
"You are literally—"
The words died in Kai’s throat on his own will as he focused on Elias meaning to deduce his real strength.
System? Run Appraisal.
[Noted! Now beginning Appraisal sequence on the individual Elias Crowe also known as Candidate 004]
Yeah, yeah, do it quickly!
[Activating Arcane Eye – Expanded Parameters.]
Information unfolded in sharp, layered panels.
[Name: Elias Crowe]
[Race: Human (Advanced)]
[Rank: SSS]
[Aura Signature: Dense violet – high-density combat essence]
[Primary Combat Style: Adaptive assassination / close-quarters lethality with expertise in different forms of martial arts]
[Note: Target has also a notable proficiency in the mystic arts]
Wait, wait, he knows magic?
[Presumably]
He never used it or say anything about it before i wonder why.
Kai knew he would have to keep this crucial info to himself until Elias opened up about it or manifested it in any form he would feign ignorance.
[Notice! Additional Note: Power acquisition pattern has been deemed irregular awy Growth curve is inconsistent with standard training models.]
Huh?
[Speculative Analysis: Possible sexual cultivation pathway. Physical intimacy appears linked to strength accumulation.]
Kai’s mind went blank for a full second. Then he internally screamed, the concept of getting more powerful through sex! This wasn’t even a new concept to him, he had seen genuine games like that in his past life pre transmigration but witnessing a close one with that kind of power....
That explained the whole thing. The random SSS-rank even though it had been established that Elias was an S ranked assassin.
His manifesting aura so dense it almost felt heavy even through the appraisal.
When the hell had Elias gotten this strong?
Elias tilted his head, noticing the sudden silence.
"Why are you looking at me like I grew a second head?"
Kai forced his expression back to neutral.
"Just... thinking."
"About how hot I am? Flattering, but we already established that."
Kai didn’t answer. The System’s speculation sat uncomfortably in his chest. Sexual cultivation. The more Elias fucked, the stronger he became.
It explained the ridiculous growth perfectly. It also explained why the man was constantly horny. Kai yet again was going to feign ignorance, as far as he knew he didn’t know a thing, he was just your average clueless adventurer.... Some things were better left unconfirmed.
He stood and grabbed his coat.
"Come on. Guild we would be there by Afternoon
Elias rose with a lazy stretch.
"Lead the way, Sugar."
"Call me that in public and I’m leaving you exactly there and i mean for good too."
"Lies. You’d just get hard and pretend to be mad" Elias said smiling sheepishly but Kai was half serious about the whole thing. It all came down to his resolve at the moment.
Kai walked out without dignifying that with a response.
The Guild was packed by the time they arrived. Adventurers of every rank crowded the boards, argued over commissions, and compared monster parts. The noise was constant. Kai scanned the A-rank and higher postings while Elias leaned against a pillar looking bored.
They had just started discussing a multi-day subjugation request when a familiar voice cut through the noise.
"Kai?"
Kai’s eyes widened as he turned.
Lo it was Lucien stood a few meters away, satchel of reagents over one shoulder, green eyes wide with recognition. The half-elf looked exactly as he had in Emeraldwood — calm, slightly bookish, and genuinely surprised.
The System chimed at the same moment.
[Notice. The individual known as Candidate 002 has entered detection range.]
[Affinity residual: stable.]
[Recommendation: Re-establish contact.]
Kai’s breath caught for half a second.
Lucien took a step closer, a small, real smile forming.
"I didn’t expect to see you in Veyrhold."
