Rank Up

Dex POV:

Lilia fell asleep during our long, quite hug. So I tucked her under the sheets and left the room quietly.

I didn't bother to change back to Clair.

I went down to the bar, ordered a drink and watched the scenery, Ilza was still fighting some poor souls. And it seems like Drull was the commentator and was also making bets on her.

She played with her opponent, however, she made it look like she was struggling to win.

"That is the fifth fight this girl won," the barkeeper said, as he noticed my gaze.

"Is that so, then why are there still people who want to fight her?" I asked.

"Well, she looks good, is strong and friendly," He said and gestured to Ilza who helped her opponent up.

"Why is there no discrimination against her? I mean, she's an elf," I asked.

"Adventurers aren't as simple minded as others, they would quickly die if they were. Elfs are good mages and become more fearsome the older they get. This girl looks not older than 18, however, she must be older," he said.

"Why?" Me

"She's too good to be so young, she must be older, that or she is a genius. Trust me, I've seen many adventurers," he said with a proud look.

"Is that so, let me see," I said with a smirk and strolled to the arena.

"Is there anyone else who wants to fight this elfen beauty? No weapons or lethal force allowed. A gold coin if you win, only 30 silver participation fee," Drull said to the crowd and looked around.

No one volunteered.

"She's strong, yes, however, you've seen that she struggled with the last fight. This might be your chance," He further said and the crowd started to murmur.

"I'd like to try!" I shouted and everyone looked at me.

"Ah..., someone brave. Do you have the silver?" Drull said, saw me, stopped shortly and then smirked. I gave him the silver before I stepped inside the ring.

"Dex?!" Ilza asked.

"Hi, I thought I might try to win," I said with an evil grin.

"He looks weak," a bystander said.

"Yeah, but hot," a woman next to the first one said.

"Why?" Ilza asked.

"I'm bored and Lilia is asleep. So I thought of having some fun with you. And what's that about winning and earning a gold coin?," I explained myself and asked her about the betting.

"Nothing much, Drull had the idea. He said it would be fun," She said and got in position, even though reluctantly.

"What is your name," Drull asked.

"Dex," I said shortly and also got in position.

"An applause for the brave Dex," the crowd cheered," Dex, these are the rules, no weapons, no magic and no lethal force." He further said and jumped out of the ring.

"GO!" He then shouted and Ilza sprung into motion.

She tried to hit me with a few fast jabs, all of them were with full force and active runes. I blocked them with my palms and loud °pengs° were audible. A small gust of wind also blew against my face.

"Do you want to destroy the inn?" I asked while blocking and occasionally evading her jabs.

"How else could I win?" She asked with a stern voice.

I blocked her next jab and looked around. The audience stood still, open mouthed and stunned by the change of Ilza.

"They might have noticed that you are stronger than you played it," I said and evaded an axe-kick by jumping back.

"Ooohhh, it seems like our champion held back in her earlier fights. Her jabs are remarkable, so fast and yet strong enough to produce loud sounds, by simple contact. I think I can even feel wind pressure from them. However, contestant Dex must also be strong, he's evading or blocking every incoming attack. Not once was he hit," Drull commented cheerfully and the audience came out of its stupor. Loud cheers could be heard from all around us.

"Stop evading me!" Ilza demanded and tried to hit me with a kick from the left side.

I ducked under her leg and used my own left leg to make a sweep. I planned to break her balance, sadly it didn't work, she jumped over my leg and then used both her feet to fall on my kneecap.

A crunch signalled the breaking of the bone.

"OUCH, that must've hurt. Is constants Dex able to continue?" Drull asked from the side.

Ilza didn't wait for a surrender and hit with her elbow downwards, aiming for my head. The elbow missed by a wide margin. I already made a back roll and pushed myself up with my hands. I was now standing on my hands, with a broken knee, which I'm not able to heal as of now and facing Ilza or more like looking up to Ilza?

"What is that? Is contestant Dex planning to fight while standing on his hands?" Drull asked, realizing my intentions.

"That was mean, why did you evade?" Ilza asked with a pout.

"Mean? You broke my knee and planned to smash my head into pieces. I think I'm allowed to evade that," I said and waggled in accusation with my broken leg.

"That looks disgusting," Ilza said with a from, not the least looking sorry for the reason of it.

"Not my fault," I said and closed in. She blocked my incoming right leg but wasn't fully ready for the whip-like, broken left one. I wasn't able to hit her head, she moved her head back in the last minute, only her shoulder was hit. However, the force was strong enough to send her flying into the ropes of the arena.

"Contestant Dex is even fast with a broken leg, it seems like our champion has a hard time against him," Drull commented and the cheers of the audience rose by a few more decibel.

"That hurt," Ilza said as she got up.

"Come, I'm ready anytime you want," I said and mimicked jabs with my right leg. It didn't look good, not even slightly like jabs, but I had too much fun to care.

She rushed back at me and tried to hit the oh so vulnerable spot between my legs. I didn't plan to let her, so I tried to grab her leg with my hands. Good for me, it worked, sad for me, she let herself fall down on my hand with both her knees.

"And that was his hand. Our champion is really cruel, first breaking his leg, then trying to smash his best friend and then breaking his right hand. It seems like someone will have problems to take care of himself tonight if you know what I mean," Drull said from the side and the audience laughed at his bad dirty joke.

I kicked Ilza off of my broken hand before she gets the idea to hit me from that position.

This time, I managed to hit her head, she fell back and an imprint of my shoe was visible on her face.

"Even in this predicament is contestant Dex able to get a hit on our champion. His will to fight is unbroken," Drull commented and Ilza stood back up.

"Hey, should I jump on one leg or should I walk on one arm?" I asked her playfully and switched rapidly between both of them.

She didn't give me her opinion. No, she just smirked and got nearer. I still switched between the hand and feet position, while she closed in on me. She was one metre away, as she suddenly rushed at me. She had the right timing and utilized the short moment I was in the air to kick me in my stomach.

I quickly grabbed her ankle, before I flew off, and took her with me. I then turned mid-air around and smashed her into the arena floor, effectively stopping our flight.

A small Ilza sized crater formed itself on the floor and I jumped back on my leg.

"And again, contestant Dex managed to turn the table around, is our champion able to get back up?" Drull asked.

"That hurt," Ilza said and stood up while dusting herself.

"I'm hungry, hey referee, I'll surrender," I said and hopped out of the arena.

"Wait what?" Ilza asked puzzled.

"Surprisingly contestant Dex surrendered. Did he realized that he's no match for our champion or is he truly too hungry to continue his fight? We will never know. We only know one thing, our champion won her sixth fight," Drull said loudly and then followed me to a desk, where I sat down.

Ilza sighed disappointingly and followed us. The audience stayed, again stunned and speechless from the unexpected turn of the fight.

"And it made so much fun," Ilza said as she sat down.

"Yeah fun," I said and activated the regeneration runes. The bones in my hand cracked and moved in the right position, where they then connected with each other.

A waitress came and took our orders.

"Where's Lilia? Drull asked.

"Sleeping. And we should do the same after eating. We're going to the adventurer guild tomorrow morning," I said.

"The fights were funny,"Ilza said and ordered something to drink.

"Yeah, the expressions these adventurers had as they realised their impending loose was priceless," Drull said and our food came.

We ate and then went up to our rooms.

I opened the door silently and stepped inside. I was greeted by an almost naked Lilia, in a more showing that hiding negligee, sitting on the bed.

"Looks nice," I said with a grin and closed the door, where I placed a silencing rune.

"Thanks, could you change into Clair?" She asked with a slightly red head.

"Are you sure?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes, I want to know how it feels and I know that you want to try it," she said with a smile.

"Okay, then here I come," I said, changed into Clair and took my clothes without the skill off.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I then walked up to Lilia and took her negligee off, followed by a long deep kiss.

She stopped the kiss and went down while pecking a few kisses on my neck.

She reached my breasts and began to suck on my left nipple while stroking the right breast.

"Normally you are mostly the acting part, let me this time," she said while looking up, but not stopping the fondling. I only smiled and stroked her hair.

She then began to nibble between the licking and sucking and I started to moan.

I reached down with my hand and started to massage her breast. The soft, plump form is truly addicting.

She stopped playing with my breasts and moved down between my legs.

"So this is yours? It's cute, the outer lips completely hide the insides," she mumbled and then began to touch the outer parts softly.

She then spread the lips with two fingers and gave the insides an almost shy lick. She stopped for a short moment, but then ran her tongue through the whole pussy, from bottom to the top, where she stopped at the clit. She then proceeded by licking around the clit.

"MMmmmm," a blissful moan was my reply.

"Tastes good,"she said and then sucked at my hole, which made me shudder in lust.

"I want to do something too," I said pleadingly.

She looked up, grinned and inserted a finger and moved it slowly in and out. She then said in a sexy voice, "Nope, today you'll enjoy and let me do the things."

"But do °moan°...you even know what..mmhmm... we can do?" I asked between my moans.

"Sure I do, do you think I didn't prepare? I read books about lesbian sex," she said and gave my right nipple a twist. It didn't hurt, on the contrary, it felt good and I got more horny.

"And I know that I'm doing it right," she then said and showed me her finger. It glistened from my own wetness. I bended my head forward and sucked on her finger. Moving my tongue around it, like it would play a game with her finger.

She pulled her finger out, looked at me and then said, "That, that was hot."

I grinned but then had to gasp in another moan as she put the finger back inside of me.

She continued to move the finger in and out, sometimes twisting or bending it. At the same time, she resumed at licking my clit and even used her other hand to play with my nipple. Multitasking.

I got nearer to my first climax and she must have felt it through the contractions in my vagina because her finger got faster.

"Any...hmmm...more and I'll °moan° come," I said but she didn't stop, no, she even started to nibble softly on my clit. This made me shudder and I came with a loud scream of pleasure and shuddering muscles.

"This is fun. Now I know why you like it so much," Lilia said while coming up with her face. She looked at the panting mess that I was and said,"Let's start round two."

"What?" I asked weakly but she already kissed me. She then lifted my pelvis up so that it was at the height of her chest. I looked up to her and the next thing I saw was her, burrowing her face inside my crotch, where she instantly began to lick and suck. I haven't managed the first one and now she's bringing me to the apex of the second.

My feet began to flail, but she coughed them with her arms and she even put her tongue inside and started to wiggle around with it.

This was too much and I came a second time. My muscles started to spasm and it was really hard not to scream out loud.

However, she didn't stop and even slapped me on my ass.

It pushed me one step further and a scream, full of lust and pleasure came out of my mouth. While my lower mouth shot a gush of juice in her mouth.

I don't know how long she continued, but she finally released me out of her grip. My twitching and panting body laid in front of her. She smirked, licked her lips and then said, "I should have done this sooner. It feels good to give the pleasure,"

She ran her finger over my still twitching stomach, through the valley of my breasts, higher to my head, where she softly stroked my hair.

She bent over and gave me a long lovingly kiss.

"haah...haah...haah, can I know?" I asked as she stopped the kiss. I was still out of breath, but I lusted to do something for her. Sex is only truly good when both sides feel pleasure.

"Only in things where I do something as well," was her reply and I quickly laid on top of her. Naturally in the legendary 69 position.

"Oh, this looks good," She said and raised her head to reach my crotch.

I quickly got to work and started to caress her inner tights with my hands, while my head bends down.

I started to lick her as well, she was already as wet as a creek. My hands moved away from her thighs, near her second hole, where I used a finger to run around the entrance in circular motions. I know that this place has a lot of nerves. We never had anal, but we might soon.

"HIII! That place is..." She started, but stopped mid-sentence, because I sucked sharply at her clit. This brought a moan over her lips. I inserted two fingers from my other hand in her pussy and she came shortly after.

Now it's payback time. I put a finger in her ass and used the other two in her pussy to push against her walls while continuously sucking and licking her clit. I was able to maintain her climax over 35 seconds and she was the same mess I was before when I finished.

I hugged her and let her calm down.

It took her a few minutes but she then said, "That was good, I didn't know that that hole can feel so good. What now?"

"Hehe, I know another position," I said and moved her in the scissor position.

It was obvious what to do, so she began to grind her crotch against mine.

Now I know why this position is so liked, it's the missionary position for women. You're able to look your partner directly into the eyes while feeling good.

I used my own nipples to circle around hers and nibbled on her earlobe. While she increased the phase of the grinding and caressed my neck with her fingers.

Our juices mixed together and I changed from her ear to her lips, where we kissed until we both reached the next climax. Thanks to the right use of [Libido] and [Petting].

Lilia fell on her back and I on her stomach, we stayed in this position and cuddled for the rest of the night.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next morning I woke up and was alone in my bed. This doesn't happen very often.

I got dressed and walked downstairs. Lilia and Ilza were sitting at a table and ate breakfast. Drull must be sleeping, as he's not with them.

I asked a waitress for the morning menu and sat down next to Lilia.

"Morning," I said and kissed Lilia. I was still in my Clair form.

"So Lilia finally had the courage to explain her feelings?" Ilza asked as she saw the kiss.

"Yes, and it felt really good," Lilia said with a happy smile.

"Good for you, I still want her once a week as my hug pillow" Ilza replied and ate a large piece of bread.

The waitress came with my food and we ate mostly in silence. Drull came half an hour later and didn't want to eat, so we paid and left.

The adventurer guild is the biggest building in the town and looked well maintained.

We stepped inside and the standard layout of the guild greeted us. A board with quests, a bar, a few tables and a lot of people. Only the counter was bigger it also had three employees.

We went to a counter with a young woman.

"Welcome to the adventurer guild of Hell Town, what can I do for you?" She asked with a business smile.

"We'd like to take Rank Ups and then need information about the Hell Dungeon," I said.

"What Rank are you currently?" She asked.

"We three," I pointed at Drull, Ilza and me," are G-Rank and the last one is an A-Rank. If possible we'd like to take the test up to S-Rank," I said and we showed our ID-Cards.

"The S-Rank test will cost 10 gold coins," She said, not really expecting for us to pay.

"Here," I said and gave her the money. At first, she didn't move, she only looked at the coin purse. It took her a few moments until it made click and she took the money.

"I'll call the guild master, please wait a moment," she then said and left through a door.

"You think, she thinks we're newbies?" Drull asked.

"Yeah, and she doesn't like us. She would have advised against the test if she would. No normal G-Rank is able to fight an S-Rank," Lilia added.

"It's more fun this way," I said and five minutes later the door was opened.

The woman and a middle-aged man with a large scar across his face came through it. The man had a longsword strapped on his back and wore a leather armour.

"So these are the three newbies who think they can beat an S-Rank?" He asked disdainfully.

"And the A-Rank," I added, but I think it made him angry.

"Then follow me, you've already paid, so no money back," He said and we followed him and the woman to an arena in the backside of the building.

"Marie will heal you up, she's able to cast Tier 7 light spells, so you don't have to worry about injuries. Who wants to be first?" He said and positioned himself in the middle of the arena.

"Me," Lilia said and stepped inside.

"Good, you'll have to hit me ten times to win," he said.

"Ready, set, GO!" Marie said from the side and the man sprung forward. His sword already drawn.

Lilia jumped to the side and shouted [Höllenfeuerpfeile] and nine blue arrows made out of fire appeared around the man. They began to spin and then shot at once in his direction.

He evaded the first two and sliced the third and fourth in half, the rest hit him in different places and his clothes started to burn. He started to run around while he conjured mud, that extinguished the fire.

However, Lilia didn't let him rest and continued to conjure more arrows. He tried to evade, but couldn't. The barrage was just too heavy. Lilia stopped after the tenth hit and he could stoop the fire on his clothes.

"Very good, I didn't think that you're able to cast such a high Tiered spell. An advice for the future, not everybody will try to extinguish the fire," He said, trying to look like he went easy on her.

Lilia just smiled wryly and I went into the arena.

"Is it okay to make you unable to fight or do I have to hit you ten times?" I asked.

"You can try. But I don't think you'll manage," he said arrogantly and got in position.

"Ready, set, GO!" Marie shouted and I vanished from their sight.

Not even a second later the man was lying on the ground. He looked up and didn't know what happened. He then tried to stand up, however, he noticed that he couldn't move his arms or legs. Then the pain started to hit him and he grunted with clenched teeth.

"I think I won," I said and looked down at him.

"What...ugh...what happened?" He asked.

"I broke your arms and legs," I simply said and left the ring.

Marie watched me with an open mouth and then realized that she has to heal the man. She rushed to him and used a healing spell.

The man stood up, tested his limbs and then said sincerely, " I'm sorry to have acted so arrogant."

"No problem," was my reply and Ilza stepped inside.

Her fight was not as fast but also impressive. She caught the wrists of the man and then gave him ten headbutts. His nose broke and his face was a mess.

She let him go after the tenth and he slumbered to the ground.

Marie's expression was the same and again, it took her a moment to run up to the man.

"Really, what are you guys? Your highest ranked member is so far the weakest," he said as he was healed and looked warily at Drull.

Drull just smirked, got into the ring and gave him a bitch slap as the fight started. The man flew out of the ring, through the walls of the building, into the next building, again through the walls and stopped at the third house.

"I think I broke him," Drull said with an evil smile. Marie, who finally got used to us, quickly run to the almost dead man and healed him up. It seems like she had to use a lot of mana because she sweated a lot as they came back.

"Ugh, this was one hell of a slap. Please don't do that never again. Well, you're clearly strong enough to be S-Rank, so congratulation. I have to go, I must get drunk enough to forget this day," he said and left while rubbing his temples.

"Ähm..., please follow me back," Marie said with a giant wry smile.

We followed her and she updated our ID-Cards.

"So the information about the Hell Dungeon," I then said.

"Ah yes, there is a map for the first ten floors and a book about the monster up to the twenty-fifth floor. There was once someone who reached a deeper floor, but we have no information about those. We would pay for any pieces of information regarding new monster and floors. The map costs 50 silver and the book one gold," Marie said and showed us both.

"We'll take the book," I said and paid.

"Thanks and have a safe hunt," She said as we left.

"Let's go dungeon diving!" I said enthusiastically and we walked to the Hell Dungeon entrance.
