+200 to relationship with Queen Bestris / Queen Bee.
+200 to your relationship with Pamela Eisley / Poison Ivy.
A hangover is evil. I think if I leave the police, I can safely get a job as a narcologist. I will cure everyone!
- Always happy to help. - I smile as if nothing had happened and sat down next to Pam, she immediately hugged me - And do not tell me why you two naked lay here all night and even half a day? A?!
Look how you blushed. HM. Did they just sleep together?
- I messed up the rooms. - muttered Beatrice and got to her feet. - I beg your pardon for disturbing me. I still have a lot of state affairs that do not require delay.
And she left ... without fully putting on her dress. That will be joy for the male part of the palace when they see their queen in this form.
- Pam? - I hugged her.
- Heh. There was nothing. This is true. It's just that she decided on a drunken head ... to seduce you. - and why is she smiling? - But you were not there. As a result, we had a nice conversation and did not notice how we went to bed.
- It's clear. But now I am concerned about another question. You are not at all upset that you have such a rival and that they tried to seduce me under your nose. Really stopped loving me.
With these words, she threw me onto the bed and washed herself on top. Covering my lips with yours. Our kiss lasted for several minutes. And then it turned into wild sex, after two hours and + 2 to endurance and + 1 to dexterity from the System, we rested. Ivy was lying on top of me with a contented and tortured pug in my chest.
- Now ... heh did I answer your question?
- Let's assume we postponed a long conversation for later, since your "theses" (theses) satisfied me? ... for now.
I basked in her arms and was about to fall asleep. But I was not condemned to sleep that day. A rather unexpected question from Pamela brought me out of my slumber:
- Isaac why did you do that massacre?
- I probably miscalculated a little ...
- Miscalculated?
- Yes. I thought that you would talk about it as soon as we were on the plane or on the last day of rest. Well, and also as an option upon arrival in Gotham. But in other respects I do not mind and now explain everything to you. Ask questions. I have no secrets from you about the latest events.
"Then tell me why you agreed to that ... assignment from Harton and Queen Beatrice?" Are you flattered by the money or by her face. - it seems to me or am I just a little touched by her nails on the chest? - Or I missed something.
"Beatrice is a really pretty young lady. And her salvation from shelling really has a certain share of this point in its motivation. But he is by no means the first or even the second place. It's more of an aesthetic feature of my brain. In fact, I wanted to get the whole queen of a sovereign state as a debtor. Yes, and I have some sense of justice. I am certainly not an angel, as you already understood, but I have my own principles and goals from which I will not give up.
- Well, with her rescue, I think we can close the topic. - Pam nodded - It (salvation) doesn't interest me too much.
- Yes, that's my decision because of which I killed ten thousand people. In principle, I do not need money. My business with Lyuts went up, by the end of the year I will have a couple of million greens on my accounts. And this is not to consider the fact that I will publish one book, which I think will be popular not only in the USA, but in the world too. Nobility? For the most part, the duties and privileges of this estate in Bealia are really small. Indeed, the nobles decide something only if there is capital behind them, or if they are close to the dynasty. And in fact, in most of the monarchical system of countries in the world it is. I don't really need it either.
- But then why? - Pamela did not calm down.
- In the name of the future. Mine and yours and the whole planet the same. - I feel she is ready to interrupt me again. "I could just stop this division, beat up or even cripple most of them before the forces arrive that Beatrice is loyal. But I did not do this because in that case it would be disastrous and unreasonable for both Bealia and the world, and even in my particular case. I understand it sounds crazy, but all my actions ... well, almost all of them were thought out and justified by pure logic and strategy.
- I believe you. It's just ... I'm afraid you will be branded a "criminal", a "monster" and a "psychopath." I will not leave you, but I am afraid for your feelings. After all, I know what it is from my own experience.
"Don't worry, my dear. - I hugged her tighter. - Even if the whole world tunes in to me, I will not be surprised. People are people they are inherently afraid of, if they do not understand something. The main thing is that those who are dear to me do not really renounce me.
- I will not deny you. - instantly jumped on me Pam. - Even if the whole world is against us, I ...
- Will you stand behind and feed me cartridges while I shoot these gray masses of "dissent"? Hee hee.
- No. I will put their decrepit fat asses on my creepers, and when the ends come out of their mouths, I will give a command to my "kids" to let the thorns go.
This is why I love this woman so it is for her ingenuity and that pretty face with which she says this. Divine woman. And where else can I find this?
- OK then. Let's go back to our "rams". As I said, I could have kept the soldiers and even the colonel alive by handing him over to Beatrice. But do you know what would have happened then?
- Some kind of nuisance?
- To put it mildly. She could have spared both the ringleaders and the uncle. After that, I would get a completely dangerous enemy at large with connections. Which would have brought to naught all my efforts and sooner or later would still have seized power in this country by eliminating Beatrice and establishing, to put it mildly, not the best regime. After all, before that he was restrained only by the presence of Beatrice at the "helm of power". But if Beatrice would have executed only her uncle and the commanding staff of his guard, then in theory this postponed new problems for a certain period. For the most part, these ten thousand consisted of all kinds of rabble like cruel mercenaries, the lower poor nobility, and others who were loyal to the colonel on a number of points. But they were of almost no value to the state. Vice versa. Even in the first days of my stay here, I heard a story that the guards are very fond of "fooling around" with civilians. As a rule, these data did not reach Beatrice. Colonel Marak covered it all. And the guard was openly disliked both among the people and among the usual "army" of Bealia. Although there were (I think) quite normal people among them, they fell under the meat grinder, which is called politics. And if they had stayed alive, they would not have liked that now no one additionally sponsored them or covered their "jambs". And the attitude towards them from other fellow citizens would be even worse. After all, now there would be no one to protect them. As a result, in a few years we would have already got real rebels and terrorists in Bealia, which would have staged a massacre. This would give the United States, NATO or someone else a reason to invade here under the pretext of a "Peacekeeping Mission". And it would drag on for several decades. They would not solve problems, but, on the contrary, fanned the flames of war even more.
- This is terrible.
- And that is not all. After all, come here Americans, there is a high probability that a bunch of my colleagues with whom I - the "past-me" amendment - sipped from the same pot. These are additional sacrifices among our fellow citizens, which the common people do not need for nothing. Only politicians. That is, as a result, all this will result in a new terrorist organization and civil war in this region. That will shake not only this country, but also I think the neighboring countries. The whole region would be at risk.
- For some reason it seems to me that you will not stop in the story even now.
- Yes you are right. This is just the tip of the iceberg. After all, these actions are local in nature ... relatively local. After all, if I had not done all this personally, I would not have received some forces, which in turn would greatly help me in the coming ... world level. I will tell you a secret that there are creatures in space and even in parallel worlds that will soon attack us and I need to be ready to protect what is dear to me.
- Who exactly? And how do you know that.
- We will fly to Gotham and I will tell you about such a "System" and one "God" that he imposed his own rules of the game on me. I didn't want to tell anyone about it. But now you will know about it on a par with Lucifer and Meisekin.
- As you wish. I will accept whatever you choose.
- Wonderful. And again, back to Bealia. By killing them all, I got more strength and a certain authority in the eyes of Beatrice. In the future, I think it will help me in the chess game that I have in mind. Rather, it will be one of the threads in the big web that I should lay around the world.
- You're just Napoleon. - she grinned - It does not even occur to me that you could think it over in a matter of seconds of that conversation.
- I thought about it even then when I heard the "conspiracy" of those two idiots in the garden. Of course, not everything went according to my script, in some places I do not like how it went. But in general. This is a much better result than it could have been. And I have not abandoned my old ideas. I just had to choose between momentary weakness in front of ephemeral "humanity" and future problems that they can cause. A striking example of such a choice is Superman and, surprisingly, Batman. And other "super-heroes" suffer the same crap, and then peaceful people suffer, who are again attacked by freaks and criminals who fled after their "defeat". And it is quite possible that even after I receive one rather useful fuinjutsu, which will allow me to "close my mouth" to all those who "know" the real background of events, the information will sooner or later reach the ears of Batman or the US government. And then I will need to hide somewhere.
"And Bealia is perfect for that!
- It's like one of the best options. I will not limit myself to just one emergency exit. Besides, I will not let myself be tied up in shackles so easily. I'm not that person. In general, if you are not enough, I can still paint a dozen reasons and options for you no less "good" future, if you do not believe me.
"As I said, I don't care about the others. Only you matter to me. I have long ago chosen the fate to walk by your side. And I will be with you, no matter what happens.
After that, we chatted a little more about a lot, and Pam fell asleep. But not me. As a result, I thought over the scenario for tomorrow's training and was pleasantly surprised when I realized that sex with Pam helped me restore much more chakra than usual. Although, after the "mission", the level of restoration of the enchantment has already grown. And right now I already have half the volume.
Therefore, I think that in the evening it will be possible to send the clones to train again, and to stay in the palace to "continue the banquet".
By the way, it would be time to return my "other half" to me in the evening and learn about the results of his ... work. (Clone?)
And in the evening I did just that. As a result, I received the following messages from the System:
Attention! You have acquired the new skill "Mad Scientist"
Attention! You have increased the skill "Aura of Fear"
Attention! You have increased the skill "Aura of Fear"
+ 5 to Intellect.
+ 5 to Luck.
+ 5 to Intuition.
+ 2 to Charisma.
+ 1 to Will.
In addition, my double also came up with a way, after these ... studies, how, with the help of chakra and experiments, to create a semblance of, if not a call, then a ninken for sure. And judging by his preliminary calculations and my knowledge of this world, where magicians have a similar thing. Then it is quite possible to implement. The main thing is time and practice. So that soon there will be a trapping of stray animals in Gotham. At the same time, I will help the authorities with this little problem.
And after that we headed for another dinner. Where were just the three of us with Pam and Beatrice. And there we had a rather interesting conversation.
To be continued...
