Chapter 184 Village

The human female flinched and backed away from Ragnar. She couldn't see him, or anything around him. It intrigued her. But she wouldn't fear her savior, she was above that.

"Uhm, sir, may I ask your name?" she asked.

Ragnar sighed and said. "The name's Ragnar!"

"Thank you for saving me Ragnar!" she said to him, her hand over her heart(breast).

"No need, I did it for a selfish reason! Don't you have a home to return to? You may go there now, sho sho!"

"Actually, I can't go home! It's to dangerous to walk alone in this forest. Can I accompany you to the nearest town." she told him. She was fidgeting with her fingers, glancing towards the dome of darkness Ragnar was in.

"Sigh" was heard from Ragnar. He stood up and turned of his aura. Finally allowing the women to see him again. "You really want to follow me? Can't you see? I'm a monster!" Ragnar said to her, a snarky smile was on his face. It was clear that he was mocking her. Yet she didn't flinch.

"Yeah, that's the plan, thank you for having me! The name's Faye, by the way." she said to him proudly.

Ragnar grimaced at her fearlessness and sat down again. Turning his aura on again.

"Sir, why do you use that aura? If you don't want people to see you, because they might get scared then its fine! I promise I'll never be scared!" she proclaimed proudly.

"No! I'm training! Let's go find your town then!"

Ragnar thought of this as a hassle, he didn't want to be with her. Even if she was a beautiful women. He acted like she was way beneath him with every word and action. He wanted to puke at everything he did. Yet it was only getting worse.

When dark consumed the world they moved. Ragnar turned of his aura and walked with Faye. She led him towards her home and Ragnar be damned if he let the opportunity to find a city slip out of his fin-gers. (Author here: you get it, lol, so fun).

They walked for hours in silence until they reached the end of the forest. A beautiful clearing, lit by the morning sun greeted the duo. Ragnar sighed and said. "This is where we part ways!" then he walked away. Letting his aura out again. It no longer had a five meter radius, but six. It showed his abilities growth and his own growth.

He felt his scales growing stronger by the second when the ability was on.

"Why don't you come with me? My village has several different species in it. We won't discriminate against a Scalerius!" she said to Ragnar.

~Pov Ragnar~ (First person)

I turned to her, feeling her voice coming from that direction. Rage filled me, why can't she understand? I want nothing to do with her, I saved her to go against my own feelings. It was a tantrum against myself!

I was fuming and rightfully so, who does she think she is?

A calming feeling took over me all of a sudden and I calmed down. What was I thinking, she was just trying to be nice. It's me who's an asshole.

"Fine I'll go with you for a bit. Sorry for being so distant, I'm going through some things!" I said. Wait why the fuck did I say that? No, I should say that, she deserves to know. What the hell, I'm in an internal battle with myself. What's happening to me?! I thought, yet the feeling returned and I followed the girl calmly. My aura was of and I was humming next to Faye.

"I'm glad you came with me Ragnar, I want to introduce you to my parents after all." she told me.

"That sounds wonderful! I've wanted to meet them ever since I met you!" I told her.

Like hell, what the fuck is happening. No, right, now I remember I've wanted to meet her parents. No who's telling me that? I only care about Alice, no wait I hate Alice. Wait, who is Alice? Who cares, I don't! I thought to myself and my internal battle was only getting worse. Yet my outside appearance remained the same.

"So, where's your family?" she asked me.

"They're dead and my tribe was half destroyed by pirates. My tribe, the one I left to come here is located close to the shore, next to the forest! I'm really sad and I'm in constant pain over the loss of my parents!" I told her. What the hell, I'm not sad they died, why did I say that? Oh right, now I remember I am sad over their death. No, why would I, I'm Ragnar the bloody aspect if Nightwater! No wait, what's Nightwater, oh right it's my power. I'm the aspect, no, no I'm just a user, right, a user! I thought to myself.

"That's, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring forth unpleasant memories!" she told me and grabbed my three limbed fin, like arm. She brought it closer to her, in a hug and leaned on me. What the hell is she doing, Alice is the only one who..l no who is Alice, this is nice. No wait, right Alice my girlfriend on earth. Why would I care about her, this is my new girlfriend, yes!

"It's not your fault, you didn't know!" I said to her.

Hundreds of houses were neatly lined up in a hexagon. With a small wooden wall protecting the town from the outside. The only entrance had two guards, with spears in their arsenal. They noticed me and Faye and pointed their spears, until they saw who Faye was and then they screamed.

"Faye's back, she's back, tell the lord!"

Faye blushed a bit and tugged herself closer to me. I had this odd impulse to cut her head of and place her on a pole, to display it to the village. Then I gained a fussy feeling of love and affection instead. Why would I want to do that?

"You're embarrassing me, please don't!" she told the guards, but they didn't relent. They screamed higher and higher. Not stopping until more guards had arrived. I sighed at the situation, but felt minor interest. What will these vermin show me, no, why am I calling them vermin. They're perfectly functional humans, who do everything in their power to help people. What am I thinking, I need to get my brain checked. I'm going crazy. I hope Faye doesn't start hating me.

I stopped in my tracks and Faye looked up at me. "What's wrong Ragnar, don't worry, they're friendly, despite their weird antics!" she told me. But why would I fear, I'm bloody Ragnar, for fuck sake. Right this is the trial thingy. Let's get the fuck out of here.

I started using my powers to engulf myself in Nightwater, to use it as my way out. But before I did that weird calmness from before took over my body. What am I doing? I'm just Ragnar, there's no future me, I'm not trapped in some alternate timeline where I didn't become a god. This is he real timeline, I'm so weird.

"Nothing honey pie, I was just admiring the beauty of this astonishing village. My tribe would be seen as a backwater village if it was compared to this architectural work of art, way ahead of its time!" I said to her, smearing a thick layer of cream on my words.

"Honey?" she said, grabbing her red cheeks. "No, no, it's to early, we need to be girlfriend and boyfriend first, what would father say?" she whispered. But I heard every word, how disgusting, I really want to grab her by the neck and twist it. No she's so cute, man I want to bed her and make her mine.

"Let's meet your father then!" I said and her face filled with horror.

"What a great idea, her father worried for her so!" one of the guards said and pushed us forward. How dare he touch me, I should destroy this village and slowly destroy this world, claiming the hopes and dreams of all beings. No what am I thinking. I need to buy a ring for Faye, gold or silver? Maybe purely made out of diamonds. How troublesome, maybe I should ask one of the guards.

Faye's face was pale like a ghost, she was so nervous to show me to her father. How cute she is. Or maybe she's being tortured by her family, abused and violated at night. Oh what a beautiful, marvelous turn on that would be. Her screams of pain at night... what am I thinking. She's obviously just scared to introduce me to her father.

We walked through the village, followed by guards all the way to a small mansion, much bigger then all the other houses. There was even guards guarding the entrance to the mansion. I could have sworn they were gazing me with hostility. Maybe I should butcher them and feed them to their wives and children. No, they were obviously just curious. I'm so naughty today, what a treat!

A scary smile formed at my face, when I saw a man gazing at us from a window. He slightly moved the curtain blocking the window to peek at us. I starred him in the eyes, making him close the curtain and come downstairs to greet his guest.

We walked through the door, where a man with a butler next to him stood.

"Faye, did you tru to escape?" the man asked, his tone was everything but nice. Faye flinched at his words and raised her head slightly. "No I didn't. I wanted to explore the woods, but goblins caught me." she started but was interrupted.

"You seriously think I would believe me? If goblins caught you, you'd either be dead, or a breeding toy. If you managed to escape you would kill yourself, like I ordered you to! If anyone touches you, you are no longer pure and shall therefore die!" the man said and Faye took a step back.

"What about you peasant? You brought my daughter back, congratulations, you get a gold coin now leave!" the man told me and I bursted. Me peasant? Me, me, me, me? I'm a fucking Sun dinosaur and a Time Raptor. I'm the bloody original timeline. How dare he, how dare he!

A black substance started to leak from my body, now I remember yes I'm Ragnar and he's a mortal, a fucking mortal!

"Do you have any idea how angry I was?! Your mother had to take your daily dose to and now she's on the brink of death! Are you happy, killing your mother?" the man said and punched Faye with the back of his hand.

"You can heal, what about your mother, she's laying in the cage, on the brink of death. Maybe that's for the best, we don't need there kind here anyways! Peasants should die, they're disposable after all. That includes your mother who had the guts to get pregnant. Just because she was a decent looking toy when she was younger. She's way beyond her expiring date! I should sell you to the slave market. Some freaks might actually want a half blood like you. Because I don't!" the man said, going on a rant. Each word made Faye tear up more and more. She was angry, so angry. Why was her mother treated this way. Why did her father so this ti her. It was so obvious to see and I love it!

Guess my second guess was right. Man this is amusing. What's more amusing is the fact that something is constantly being more and more persistent on making me forget myself again. Its growing restless and each attack against my mind is stronger then the other. Guess I have to kill the man quickly.

"You're the only peasant here young man. Your kind always intrigue me. The entertainment I get from watching your kind is so delicious. Some times I think I'm tricksters child, not Alice." I said and the man turned to me. Anger could be seen in his eyes and maybe the mind washed me would be scared. But this little boy is a mortal, he will die very easily.

I snapped my finger and a vortex of Nightwater appeared around him and poof. He was gone.
