Inscription

*Multiple POVs*

***

(MC POV)

The inscription light only required a single character before the most basic form was created. Any of the more complicated ones like the three I made before required multiple characters to be drawn onto a sheet of inscription paper.

Holding up the newly drawn inscription above my head a barely visible luster was seen on the paper.

If I was still in the first stage of cultivation I would of had to active the inscription through tearing in the paper a bit.

Now though by just inserting a strand of Qi into it, it would activate.

*Sss*

The paper slowly brightens in my hand as a strand is inserted. When it stops brightening up a low yellow light is seen emitted around the room.

"Wow, that's so impressive! Ip Cheng can you teach me as well?!"

"Of course Yao Ya, watch me and see how much you can recall. That was just one of the most simple inscriptions though, let me show you a better one."

Taking out another sheet I wonder which one I should draw for her.

'Well the realm exploration is just around the corner so I'll make an invisibility inscription for her. Just incase something happens she'll be able to escape.'

Picking up the brush and grabbing another sheet of paper to place in front of me I dip the bristles of the brush into the nearby ink container to prepare.

At the same time I see the little spider turn into a woman in the corner of my vision. Paying no mind to the scene I get focused into creating the inscription.

This one will take quite a while to create though. The paper will be filled with characters when I'm finished.

(Yao Ya POV)

'He's looks so determined, and for me no less! Oh how I wish to just take you at this moment! I'll wait though, for the perfect moment to take it.'

While lost in my thoughts staring at his back a voice appears in my mind.

[So, when are you two going to kiss, Hmm?]

The smile I had while in my own thoughts slowly disappear.

My body stiffens a bit as I slowly turn my head towards her. A shit eating grin was plastered on her face while facing me.

'Ugh, That face she makes irritates me! It seems like this is the only way greet me. Always bringing up how she stole his first kiss! If I never told you about him having no experience you wouldn't have anything to brag about!!

Besides that kiss wasn't even consensual, you took it while was paralyzed.'

[We another kiss yesterday as well. This time I even got some deep tongue action mixed into it! He didn't even struggle that time, so does that could as consent?]

'WHAT!!! I can't even bring anything to go against that! No, no, now it has to count. Damn it, she has a point against me! Now holding hands with him first doesn't seem impressive at all!!

I can't let her get anymore firsts! Ok, alright whenever the time even feels like its going well I'll have to take that chance no matter what!'

[Fufu~ I can see from your facial expressions that you're troubled from my statement. How about this, I'll stay back when it's time for the exploration of that small realm.]

Looking into her eyes with a bit of suspicion [Really? You would do that for me?]

[Well, it won't be free. I want a small favor one where you will do one thing of my choosing. Of course I won't say anything too unreasonable. What do you say?]

[Hmm.. Alright I accept!]

[Y-You don't want to think about it for a bit more? I can ask ANYTHING from you!]

[Nope, besides you said it wouldn't be too excessive so I believe you. Don't you remember what we discussed?]

[O-Ok then, so be it. You now owe me a small favor.]

'I have to do something within that realm. I don't know how long we will be in there so every second counts! It could be just a few hours to days or even weeks! Please be weeks! The longer he stays with me and away from her the better!

Enough of this, I'll worry about it later. For now let me focus on him, he's right in front of me. I'm so glad that his fat burned away after his cultivation started, he's so much more handsome now. Some of his previously hidden features have been exposed now that the fat has disappeared.

Just thinking about him like this is making me excited! Can time just speed up, I can't wait until we can go into that small realm.'

[I wonder what you're planning to do in the realm.]

Although a little angry from being disturbed again, realizing the question I quickly become embarrassed. I could feel the slight burning sensation on my cheeks as I tried avoiding eye contact with her.

(Li Lian POV)

'Hehehe she looks so cute being teased I just can't help myself. I wonder what should ask for using my favor, I guess I'll just have that on hand whenever I need something. What could she possibly do in that realm alone with him?

She's been with him longer than I have and I still took the first kiss from him. Will she take his virginity in there? No, of course not I don't know if she has enough courage to do so. Maybe she will just kiss him as well or something similar.

If she actually makes it past me into touching him I'll be impressed.'

Watching her as she avoids eye contact is a little amusing. Changing the target in my eyes onto him I see he's still working on an inscription.

Wait a minute, that invisibility inscription looks a little like the one he used before when we first met. The handwriting looks pretty similar.

Oh No! Don't tell me he made those inscriptions as well! Has he not been making anymore inscriptions since now because of what I said to him before? I have to make it up to him somehow. Maybe when He comes back I'll give him a surprise of some sort.

(MC POV)

With a final stroke of the brush I finalized it.

"There finished! Yao Ya this might help you stay hidden against others when we enter in the realm."

Carefully picking up the completed inscription with both hands I turned around to see both women staring at me with a slightly distracted looks.

"Hello? Yao Ya, Li Lian?"

Saying their names seemed to wake them up with a slight jolt.

"A-Ah Thank you!" Yao Ya smiled as she took the inscription from me.

"Oh You've finished? That's nice, it looks great!"

'I still remember when we first met, has she forgotten what she said? Well it doesn't really matter, it's all in the past. Maybe I should bring it up.'

"Li Lian didn't you say that 'Whoever made these shouldn't keep making them?' Can you please tell me how to improve them?"

She merely looked away practically admitting that what I said was true. Before I could continue Yao Ya spoke.

"*Gasp* How could you say that to him, Li Lian? It's a perfectly good inscription! He's just starting to make them as well it must be difficult to create one. You're such a bully!"

I just wanted to show her I was the one who made those inscriptions and tease her a little, why is Yao Ya saying this on my behalf. Those two shouldn't fight each other, instead they should get along.

"Yao Ya it's ok! You don't have to say those things. She was just being honest, besides I am just starting out. None of my inscriptions are really that good."

"But..."

"It's okay, now why don't you show me what you learned from watching me? Here you go."

Scooting over I gestured with an open palm towards where I sat to create an inscription. The materials were already in place, all she had to do was pick up the brush and begin drawing the characters.
