Nine Tailed System 21 Alice's definition of 'Fun'

They finally found an inn, it was completely different from the Sutherland Inn, well, that inn was a special case.

In their room they had a square table with two seats, a big bed with white blanket, and some wooden old furniture. Marco sat in a chair while Alice sat in the bed while turning back to her original form.

There was an awkward silence, Marco was bored while Alice couldn't just **** him when it was still day, since many would hear them, and doing it at night was more enjoyable. And then, she started the conversation...

Alice: So… How was Illias Village when you lived there?

Alice suddenly remembered that even if she visited so many places, she didn't seen anything about Illias Village, she immediately left with Marco to his journey for the coexistence.

Marco: 'There was everything… Everything to ask about, and she picked this... ' *Sigh* I lived good there…

Alice picked up his lie due to his unusual tone, and asked with a frown.

Alice: ...Why are you lying to me?

Marco flinched at her words, and turned towards her.

Alice: Do you really not trust me…?

Marco: *Sigh* ...It is for your own good…

Alice raised an eyebrow due to Marco's tired tone, and asked.

Alice: What do you mean?

Marco: You said you left from the castle for a journey less than 2 weeks ago, right?

Alice nodded, and Marco continued to talk.

Marco: Did you leave from the castle before that day?

Alice: No… I was busy with many things and Tamamo was teaching me about being a Monster Lord.

Marco: This is the reason that I don't want to say anything… The world can be a dangerous place…

Alice: I'm not a kid.

Marco shook his head and said.

Marco: I don't mean that, I only said the truth, I could name you some things that would even make you puke, and that would not be the 5% of how bad things are in the world… Do you remember the noble we encountered at Illiasburg?

Alice nodded, remembering the silhouette of the fat noble.

Marco: What would you do if I said that he ruined many families, killed many people and cheated some poor guys only to gain his money?

Alice's eyes widened from the words that Marco just said, and her hands tightened.

Alice: I would be angry…

Marco: Yes, and now let's go in a worse level… What do you think that some families and people that were ruined from him did?

Alice opened her mouth, before closing, not really knowing the answer of the question.

Marco: There are 3 outcomes… The first is that they are lucky and managed to save themselves or their family, the second is selling their bodies, both for sex or organs…

When Alice heard the second outcome, she froze on the spot, and stood silent.

Marco: And the third outcome is suicide, not being able to endure that torture anymore…

Alice took a sharp breath at the last outcome, and Marco nodded at her expression.

Marco: And that is only a part of what the noble could have done, then what do you think that he might have done with the monster girl he enslaved? Just taking her away from her daughter might have given her nightmares about how Papi would be without her.

Then she may have killed so many people, changing her personality a bit, he may have even raped her himself… This is the reason that I don't want to talk about my past, there are many bad things about it that I don't want to talk about.

Alice had a sad expression and nodded, not trying to ask about his past anymore, and changed subject. The moon was coming, it was night, and Alice suddenly smirked.

Alice: Marco, I'm hungry…

Marco: Oh hell n… Guh!

He was interrupted from Alice's tail that coiled around his body, he was trying to struggle out from her tail.

Alice brought Marco on the bed, still bound from her tail, and took off his clothes, leaving him naked while the end of her tail coiled around his dick, slowly stroking it.

Alice: I really missed this big stick of meat...

Marco smirked and said.

Marco: You want to stroke my ego too?

Alice: I heard that many men liked to have it stroked, and you seem one of them.

Marco: If it is to ease me about getting raped, that is not going to happen…

Alice: Don't worry, it is not **** if both of us enjoy it!

Then Alice put her body over Marco, his head between her breasts.

Alice: Hora, hora!

Marco: I want my restraining orde- Mhpf!!

Marco had some difficulty to breathe, and he struggled even more, trying to put himself in a comfortable position, but when he almost got in one, he suddenly felt a cold hand around his dick and a thumb over the tip, making him grit his teeth.

Marco: Goddammit, Alice…

Alice's upper body stood up for a moment before settling at Marco's side, softly biting his neck and giving him even more pleasure.

Alice: C'mon, if you can resist 2 more minutes then I will use my mouth… I heard from Alma Elma that your first choice would be a blowjob…

When she finished talking, time seemed to be stopped, and Marco thought.

Marco: '...She wants to challenge me?'

*Ding*

*Special Quest: Don't cum for 2 minutes*

Marco: 2 minutes, huh? ...I'll show you who is the man here!

Marco seemed to completely change personality, and used one hand to grab Alice's head and kissed her, surprising her from the sudden change, and the other took off her clothes that were covering her chest and then grabbing one of her boobs.

Alice: 'W-What happened to him?! I just challenged him in a little thing! How did he change so much?!'

And the night slowly passed, and for your information, Marco won his challenge.

But even if he won, he was still taken down after the 12th round, and started sleeping while Alice put him in the bed.

However, something happened before he fell unconscious…

*Ding*

*Host gained enough willpower and is able to use the 4th Gate without losing control*

[Dreamscape]

Marco was for the third or fourth time over the golden cloud, and sighed in exasperation, but he was not that annoyed due to him being able to use the 4th Gate now.

Illias: Marco… Oh brave Marco…

Marco: 'Alright, now what does this bitch want?'

If Illias would hear his thoughts, pawn or not, she would have thrown a lightning at him for not respecting her, but fortunately she can't hear minds, and even if she could, she would be blocked from the system.

Illias: Marco… You are an unblessed Hero…

Marco: 'And thanks god I am not blessed…Wait...' …Hero?

Illias nodded and said.

Illias: You are still the one who will kill the Monster Lord, if that isn't a hero then what should it be?

Marco: 'Mercenary, assassin, hitman, warrior, there are many things but a hero is not one of them…'

Illias: You must never forget your responsibility as a hero…

Then Marco woke up from his dream, Illias disappeared from his dreamscape, and he started the day with a yawn, which woke Alice up, too, she was sleeping beside Marco since there weren't any other places to sleep on.

Alice: Finally you woken up… I didn't expected that side of yours… A surprise, sure, but a welcomed one.

Marco: 'Did… Did she used a meme?' Those challenges are becoming bad for my health…

Alice smirked and said.

Alice: C'mon, you weren't bad back then, you were really good, who did taught you to please a woman?

Marco smiled and thought at Gabriel.

Marco: An old friend of mine… That guy is a fucking guide to get a woman at 100% of chances, even if you want 2 women or more…

Alice: He's so good on this?

Marco: Hah, that fucker got 9 different fiancees in less than 2 years…

Alice was surprised from the number, and said.

Alice: He's really impressive…

Marco: Yeah… He was…

Alice: What happened?

Marco: That fucker disappeared somewhere, and the moment I find him, I'll kick his ass…

Alice started to giggle and both of the prepared themselves to leave from Port Natalia.

[Later]

Marco bought a map of Natalia region and Sentora itself, then, under Alice's curiosity, he bought flour, eggs, tomatoes and some unusual ingredients. After that, they left and headed to San Ilia due to the famous library in the city.

They were going west along the beach.

Alice: So you said we were heading to San Ilia?

Marco: Yes… It's about a three day walk to the west of Port Natalia. I want to check the library for some things…

Alice: What things?

Marco: I am pretty interested in legends and myths… For example, how did Heinrich defeated the 8th Monster Lord? He is only an human, so it should not be possible… Unless you have special powers like mine… 'Let's see if she will talk about the four spirits…'

Then, is there any dangerous person decades or centuries ago?

Alice: Well, about the second part, I sincerely don't know myself, but about Heinrich's part, you were completely right, he had the powers of the four spirits… They were 4 spirits which wielded the powers of an elemental for each.

Sylph, the spirit of the wind; Gnome, the spirit of the earth; Undine, the spirit of the water; and Salamander, the spirit of the fire… Thanks to those four, Heinrich could defeat the 8th Alice.

Marco: ...I wonder if I could get them…

Alice: Huh?

Alice was surprised from what Marco just said, and Marco continued to talk.

Marco: I know, you might be asking why should I try to get them if I have already the Nine Tailed Gates, but I can't use only pure strength to create coexistence, otherwise Heinrich would have achieved world peace.

So either he didn't wanted that, or something stopped him, it is obvious that the first option is false, so there may be something that stopped him, the problem is exactly that 'something' that may interfere with my goal. 'Which is Illias…'

Alice was really interested from Marco's argument, since she knew only about 8th Alice's defeat from Heinrich, and absolutely nothing about what was next.

[Meanwhile]

At Illias Continent, precisely at the mountain range, there was a woman with long red hair, red eyes and a white long lab coat, she had a black medium-sized skirt and grey stockings, combined with a grey shirt.

She is Promestein, an angel which uses science and technology, she was looking around with a strange device in her hand, precisely where Marco's bijuudama exploded, in the middle of a giant crater, and suddenly, the device made a strange sound, surprising Promestein.

Promestein: ...So this is why Centuroid was eliminated despite her fighting capabilities… This place reeks of holy and dark attribute, whatever made both that and this crater must be a powerhouse… Whoever did this could go against us, better getting more informations…
