《Heretic King》Heretic King - Chapter 24
Advertisement
Well this is probably gonna be the most challenging thing since the Proficio system was invoked.
How do I escape from this crazy woman? Like I'm all for sex, but those eyes honestly creep me out. She seems way too Yan for me, I quickly tidied myself up while hoping I could get out of dodge before she could focus.
No such luck.
As I stood up she quickly followed suit, while also grasping onto my arm. As she stared at my face I once again confirmed she is without a doubt a beauty. Truly a shame.
"Eh, could you by any c-chance...let go? I stuttered mid-sentence as when I began my sentence she seemed to shudder in delight, which by the end of my words changed to an aura which made me break out in a cold sweat. I quickly used Golden Fiery Eyes on the aura.
'Yan' AuraAn aura projected by one who would fit the description of Yandere.
(System advice: If you are her target of affection, run.)
As the system reaffirmed my original thoughts and gave helpful advice; which I inwardly gave a thumbs up to, I quickly looked at her to see what was wrong with her.
"Oh, so I am gross to darling...he doesn't want me anymore...if that's the case I guess it is time..."
As I heard that the cold sweat only increased, proportional to the aura which was gradually getting stronger.
"Ah, No that's not it...um?" Now that I realized I don't even know her name, well this is awkward.
"Diana, dear. My name is Diana Stepanov." I'm gonna ignore what I heard after that
"...soon to be...Diana Crowe..."
I am gradually thinking the system is more and more of a bro for warning me from this.
"Well Diana, all I wanted you to do was let go of my arm, I can't very well clean myself off with you attached to me like this."
"Really? You're not gonna run away?"
As she said that I felt her nails dig into my arm, although I know I am stronger than her, but as most men would agree with me, Women can be very scary when they want to be.
"Haha...*gulp*...of course not, I just want to clean off the dirt and blood."
I remembered a quote from a show that had a yandere in it that could maybe apply now.
Think of your shivers as excitement rather than fear. Cover the anxiety on your face with a smile. - Kurusu Keigo

Though it gives me even more shivers of "excitement" thinking anyone could ever enjoy this.
"OK I'll help clean you..."
As I prepared to deny her, I seen the look she gave her and quickly swallowed my words.
"By the way who's the wall of meat over there?" As she said that she gave a cold look of utter disgust towards him.
"Ah, him. A couple years ago he was my brother, then he was my unwilling master. And now to me, he is just a piece of thrash."
As there seemed to be more to this than I first thought I quickly tried to get out of this conversation. Using scan I looked for anything with a semblance to a shower or bath. Quickly enough I found a large bath inside what would appear to be the former leaders residence.
As we made our way towards the bath, Diana on her own volition began to tell me about her and her past.
"Nikolai and I lived in a house in the woods with our father and mother, north east of Magadan by about 30 kilometers, up until I was 14 we were happy. Then mother and father came down with an illness. As we were poor and hunted for food mostly we couldn't afford the medicine to cure them. Then it was just Nikolai and I. It was fine at first, it began with just lecherous gazes, the occasional remark. It then began to escalate, he began slapping my ass when I passed by and groping me whenever he could. Until one day, it seems his resistance reached his limits. On the day of my 18th birthday, that bastard raped me. He took my virginity that I was saving...that should have been yours...
After that he no longer put on airs, and just treated me as if I was his woman. Once the system was invoked as we had already hunted wild animals we quickly adapted. Though the system only seemed to fuel Nikolai's arrogance. He quickly began to rape even more women, he even did androgynous men. There was no end to his depravity. Once he heard the announcement of your bounty, he began to rape even more, seemingly in irritation that a man besides him was the first system announcement. Although he seemed to hide it underneath a veil of indifference, I could tell that he really desired to kill you so as to regain his pride. Just look at him now, crying and snivelling like a little girl. Now enough about that, I will tell you about myself; my likes, hobbies and such.

In regards to food my favourite is hot pot, while for hobbies all I could do was read and hunt. Nikolai took to hunting while I took to reading. For likes, that would be...you." As she said that I got a shiver once again. Although I can sorta understand what would turn you into that. After she said that she continued to drone on about herself that before we knew it we had arrived at the for our purposes, bathhouse.
Diana's POV
As I told him my story I made sure to judge his reactions, once I had reached the bit of Nikolai raping me, I could feel him tremble in what seemed to be rage and sympathy. I felt my heart throb once more, and continued telling my story. Once we reached the bath, Thomas seemed to become very awkward, when I asked him why he told me that I was his first time. I couldn't help feel a surge of joy and a surge of something else when I was told that. 'I was Thomas' first and only woman. And it will stay that way. I'm selfish, I know. But to keep you only mine, I will do everything I need to do, even if it's crazy.'
I quickly stripped naked in front of him, wanting to assure him he didn't need to be embarrassed around me, and that I was all his.
He quickly reacted. Seeing that I quickly got in the mood, and our actions quickly deviated from bathing.
When we were finally done, I helped wash his back which he seemed to really enjoy, soon enough we were clean.
As we were leaving, unexpectedly he drew me in for a deep kiss. As I was disorientated by that he quickly led me away from the settlement. Quickly we arrived at a secluded area nearby he sat me down and then began to talk.
"I'm gonna be honest here. You creep me out. Although I say that you also turn me on, you also make me feel odd inside. Although I don't believe It's love, but I don't hate you, but I feel that where I am going, that you shouldn't tag along, although I don't know how strong you are, but in any case I don't want my issues to get you into danger."
I was surprised as I heard him say all that. First things first...I'm creepy? In what way? How could he call the cute me creepy? Though at least he said I excite him, and he might even like me. Ooh I just felt a gush of warmth both in my chest and down below. He is even worrying for me. Ah Thomas you gonna make me fall deeper and deeper.
He seemed confused as to why I suddenly started to squirm in my spot. I quickly wanted to ease his worries. So I did the only thing I could think of. I french kissed him while pulling him into my embrace. As I quickly whispered my answer in his ear.
"You can't get rid of me that easily, lover boy. You're gonna be stuck with me as long as we both live." Different to earlier instead of shuddering or flinching he instead began to return the kiss and embrace. And it once again devolved into something entirely different to what it was meant to be.
We quickly decided our next course of action, I say 'we' but I mean me. Thomas already told me after dealing with the Survivor camp he had no other immediate plans. So I made the decision. Instead of focusing on getting stronger why not travel the world, and treat the getting strong as a secondary objective. God knows that we won't be able to find peace in this world for long so 9 times out of 10 while we explore we will naturally get stronger, so why not visit places like the Eifell Tower and the Great Wall? More than likely they have become dungeons knowing this systems love of landmarks.
And so we set off on our journey of the world.
A/N So there is chapter number 24. How do you feel about everything? Especially the MC. One of the reviews pointed out about the MC's character or specifically his lack of one. Sadly that was not intentional, it just ended up that way. I have to be somewhere in 3 hours so once I get back I will put up a poll regarding our MC's character development. Also Poll on this chapter as I didn't put in a warning at the beginning of this story of sex being a part of it as it was never intended. Once again leave your thoughts below.
For now, Ciaossu!
EDIT: Whoops forgot to post the poll on this chapter... Teehee

HEIMDALLR
After his first life, Heimdallr felt he had lived a decent way; he wrote stories and lived a simple life, avoiding publicity and focused on promoting growth to the few who cherished his works. But after being reborn as Heimdallr Dagrsson, one of the many sons of Daesal's greatest warrior Dagr, he was put into a world devoid of wide-spread access to reading and writing. Instead, he was dropped into a world where fighting and death commonly reared their heads. Now, faced between his unsupported passion and his new life's innate talent and upbringing, he will have to find his new path. He will forge a new story that would make even himself dubious of whether or not it's fact or fable. HEIMDALLR is a story taking place in the setting created for another previous work of mine called KOBOLD. It follows a reincarnated person trying to wrestle between their old life and new life's wants and needs, all the while adapting to the situations that arise out of his control. Heimdallr starts out trying to survive and live a new life, all the while facing challenges and growth both fantastical and painfully real. Loosely inspired by Norse mythology and histories (names and some themes), spun into a fantasy, grit-rooted world. Skål! All content warning tags are applied so as to allow freedom of writing but there is no intent of excess or even regular use of these themes. Regardless of this, any and all uses will have dedicated warnings presented in the chapter whenever they are present! Reader beware!
