Dawn- An age of Darkness

Chapter 234 - The Eve Of Bunnies Part 2



I sighed again. "I guess he had his reasons. Let's go." I for sure didn't want to get dragged into all this. 

But Lianne wasn't listening. She went closer to the sleeping Ven, and slapped him, rather her, awake. 

​​

"Whoa! What? Enemy attack?"

Honestly, I didn't know what to feel about that. 

She looked at Lianne first, then at Alisa, and then finally me. Her cheeks twitched a little until she finally realized her chest was bare. 

She cleared her throat. "Gentlemen, as you can see, I've been cursed. It happened quite some time ago, but ever since then I have to stay bare and bathe in the sun during the noon or my body starts to disintegrate." At first, when she woke up, her voice wasn't as forced and it was quite high pitched but as she gradually sobered up, her voice definitely turned manlier. 

 My eyes twitched a little but I smiled. "Yeah, I don't care. I'll call you a girl from now on, unless you happen to have a dick lying around between your legs. And do try to hide those things." Because those things were very distracting. 

Her cheeks flushed red as she covered her chest with her arms. "That's-that's injustice. I'm telling you, I'm a guy!" She sure didn't look like a girl. 

"Alright." I glared." Take off your pants." I was barely a meter away from the guy, so it shouldn't have been hard for me to spot certain things. 

"Daarc!" Lianne shouted in shock. 

Alisa just grimaced at the whole thing. I mean, there were only five of us here. If he was a guy, all was good. And if he was a she, and she was a girl, I was pretty sure, the bunny who lead us here, wouldn't have given a damn. 

I know, I didn't. 

I ignored Lianne. "If you're a guy, you should have that. You know what I mean."

"I do have one!" She was confident if nothing else. 

But, one?

"Alright then, show me!" I didn't know why, but I might have gotten a bit too absorbed in the whole thing. 

"Fine!" Well, she didn't have any shame, that much was clear. 

She slid her pants down along with her underwear. First, she didn't have family jewels, second, she had a hole where her rod should have been, and last, there were no lil-Ven. I did see a clit and some newly forming trees though. 

It took a lot of courage on her part to show us this, I guess, so I couldn't rebuke her. Instead, I just turned around and gave Lianne a side glance. No matter how much I claimed of my self-control, even I couldn't really stay still after seeing her bare. I mean, she was beautiful, there was no doubt. And the mere thought that I was about to be murdered by a certain elf, gave me anxiety and a lot of sweats. 

"I'll let you handle the rest. Sorry." I dumped all the responsibility on Lianne and just walked. 

As I and the bunny walked away from Ven, and Lianne went close to her, Ven shrieked. "What! But father said!"

I pretended not to hear anything and just ran away from there as fast as I could. I could see both the bunny and Alisa running along with me. 

Life really was full of mysteries. And I was probably going to die today.

By the afternoon, the whole place was like a festival. There were flowers, singing, and dancing everywhere. The bunnies were utilizing the mountain top amazingly and this was probably my first ever festival with bunnies. I wasn't a pedophile, but the bunny children sure were cute. At least they didn't have muscles like their parents. 

I sighed and turned to Alisa. "You're not going to turn out like that, right?" Obviously, I meant her growing muscles and all that. 

She raised a brow, debated whether she'd punch me or kick me, and in the end, just clicked her tongue and turned her head away from me. I didn't know why but looked awfully cute. Put a smile on my face. 

"So, forcing girls to get naked wasn't your only fetish?" Lianne was right next to me. I'd kind of forgot about that. 

I chuckled but chuckles sure weren't helping. "I was kind of heated up at the time. It's not like I enjoy watching naked women." I sure was glad Lianne couldn't get a hold of my browser history in this world. 

She glared at me, squinting her eyes a bit. "Well, I suppose during all your travels with me, you never attempted anything like that, so I can conclude you to be innocent." I was glad she thought of me that way. But then she had to open her mouth again. "Or, do I lack enough charm?" She observed her body. 

How the hell was I going to tell her that it was the exact opposite? 

Should I compliment her, right now?

I got a feeling things were getting more and more complicated by the second.

I didn't know the right answer but I took a gamble. "I'm pretty sure you're the most charming person I've ever met, so don't be like that." If I didn't know better she was also probably the most beautiful. 

"Hey…" Alisa mumbled. "That's like basically saying, I'm not charming enough."

The hell is wrong with you people?

I kind of really wanted to run away right now. 

And then I saw Dick just happily gobbling up food with Servesta. I really envied the guy. He had no worries and the strength to back up everything. The bunnies had actually secured a bunch of birds and roasted them. Didn't look that appetizing. 

I was being sandwiched by glares from both sides, while Dick was having the time of his life. 

Purr! And with that sound, Biteria jumped straight on my head and consequently on my shoulder. 

The bunnies gave all their attention to me now and sang praises and whatnot. Basically, I was being worshipped alive. 

The glares coming from both of my sides were getting more and more intense, but at least now I didn't have to worry about them all that much… kind of.

I'm definitely not getting out of this without scratches. 

***

By the time the sun was about to set, the festive atmosphere became more and more chaotic as the male bunnies tore open their shirts and just danced like crazy. Apparently, these guys had some strong type of fruit wine. 

I had no idea what to feel about this whole thing. 

Seriously, what was wrong with this whole place?

But even I had to admit, it was peaceful. 

"Do we have transport for tomorrow?" I chomped on a roasted bird. It looked terrible but the taste wasn't so bad, kind of like that bird we had with the pirates…nostalgic. 

The men were dancing while the girls were eating and chatting on the opposite direction. The kids were with the women. 

"Yes, Mig said the crows had escaped to safety and they can be recalled when it's time. And the rabbits have agreed to give us enough provisions for a day. So I don't think we'll have trouble leaving tomorrow."

Me and Lianne just stared at the crowd of bunnies dancing. Dick and Servesta were also dancing, shirtless. I guess Servesta just had a problem expressing himself, but at certain times, he was actually quite lively. 

I took a deep breath. "Think I'll join them." I finished my bird. 

Lianne sighed but giggled shortly afterward. "GO for it." She gave me a push too. 

I chuckled and removed my armor, throwing it into the ring. 

"Yo Daarc!" And Dick was already drunk. "Wunt sum?" He held a bottle of wine in my direction. 

"Unfortunately, I don't drink."

But it didn't bother me, and we all just laughed, danced, and made merry. 

***

By midnight the party ended and there were bunnies lying around everywhere. 

Some were even snoring. 

Alisa was asleep, and so were Servesta and Dick. Lianne and Biteria weren't here. And I hadn't seen Ven all day. 

So without much of a fuss, I went closer to a small tool and sat on it. I yawned and messaged my head. 

Maybe I should get some sleep too?

"I must Apologize, Daarc green."

I pretended like I knew nothing. "Just call me Daarc. And don't worry about it."

Ven had come out of nowhere: more like she dropped from the sky. She sighed and her breath fell on me. Her breath was at least ten degrees warmer than the air surrounding us. "Father did always say I was special but he raised me as a boy. I just never knew I was a woman." Her voice was strange. She was sad. I guess she didn't know the difference between guys and gals. 

I guess I didn't have any right to fault her.

"Does it matter? I mean at the end of the day, what matters most is that we're alive. So what if I'm a guy? And so what if you're a girl? We're alive and we're fighting to stay alive. Isn't that more important?"

She chuckled. "I suppose you are not wrong." She closed her eyes and thought for a second. "Now, who was this woman you wanted to be saved from the crystal?" I guess she was an expert on changing the subject too. 

"Oh right!" I'd almost forgotten about it due to all this commotion. 

I tried sending mana to the ring. But even now, it was hard. A big enough portal did open, enough for me and Ven to shove our heads in it. 

"Let's see, hmmm." She touched the crystal. "Not cold." She breathed a bit of fire and it didn't do anything to the crystal. Next, she touched it and a red glow covered her hands but nothing happened. "This can't be melted by fire. But-" Her glow turned white. This time the crystal reacted a bit but it wasn't enough. "We need strong holy powers. Why don't you have a try?" Her face was so close to mine that I could feel her breath on me.

And boy was her breath hot. I was already sweating a lot more than necessary. 

"Won't anything bad happen if I mess up?"

"She'd just die. Nothing serious."

"That is serious, you moron," I grumbled but did touch the crystal and imbued the crystal. 

Nothing happened just like last time.

"Are you not capable of infusing mana into your blood?"

"I mean, I've done it before but every time I almost died."

Ven sighed and came out. I came out too. 

"In that case, I think it'll be very hard."

Then why the hell did he send you?
