"Oi! Wait up! Don't just leave me behind! Oi!" As Queen Mother quickly trudged away from her allies, someone's voice started to disturb her. "Oi! Will you really just walk away without me?"
Queen Mother, who was already some distance away from the shack that she and allies had stayed in, could only shake her head as continued walking.
"Oi tree girl, please listen to me! If you don't, I will continue shouting at you!"
"Why are you following me?" In the end, Queen Mother was left with no choice but to look behind her, giving the person following her a stern gaze. "Frances, what do you want? Can't you see that I want to be alone first?"
Professor Frances, who was wearing her signature lab gown, coupled with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, gave Queen Mother a rueful smile as she said,
"Oh, since you said that you want to take a walk, I decided to join you. After all, it will be better if we walk together, since you know, we're both experts at life creation."
"Didn't you get the hint that I want to be alone for a second?" Queen Mother shot back as she glared at Professor Frances. As she glared at the professor, Queen Mother's eyes wandered as she checked out the professor's body.
Queen Mother was definitely sure that Professor Frances will be a beauty, only if she could maintain a proper hygiene, which the professor had been failing to do so.
Queen Mother looked at the professor's hair, taking note of the dirt and grime stuck in it.
"If she could just clean her hair, it will surely look great on her…" Queen Mother thought to herself as her eyes landed on the professor's modest bosom and long legs.
"And if she just wore some good clothes, I am sure she could look just as good as Alina…"
After this thought suddenly appeared in her mind, Queen Mother started to frown as she seemed to have remembered something unpleasant.
"Nah uh uh. Don't go thinking that way to this woman." Queen Mother immediately backtracked her improper thoughts towards Professor Frances as she remembered what kind of woman the professor was. "This woman was someone who was willing to kill herself just to have a shot of revenge against the Endless Monarch. Getting too close with her will surely backfire on me."
"You want to be alone? Really? If you really want that, then you should have chased me away by now." Professor Frances said as she did not budge under Queen Mother's glare. "But look, you are still talking to me…"
"I could just be trying to be diplomatic here." Queen Mother replied in exasperation as she averted her gaze away from the professor's body. "Besides, I don't even need to fight you. Part of my aura was inside your body, so I basically have control over your life. I don't need to raise my hand against you. You will always have to follow my will."
"Hmph, since that was the case, then there should be no problem if I join you, right?" Professor Frances said as she seemed unfazed with Queen Mother's words. "You said it yourself. My life is under your control. That means that you are perfectly safe with me. And what if you suddenly face danger later? You cannot just deal with that alone. With me here, your safety will be assured too."
"…"
Queen Mother realized that she was unable to say anything, as she knew that Professor Frances' logic was impeccable here.
But even with that, Queen Mother could not help but feel suspicious of the professor.
"You don't want to just join me. You want to talk about something that you don't want Alina and Alex to hear." Queen Mother briskly said as she continued walking. "That is reason why you want to join me."
"Oh, I always thought that sentient plant creatures are dumb. My experiments before had shown that. But here you are, managing to deduce my intentions. You really are a great specimen!" Professor Frances replied gleefully as her smile turned predatory.
The professor then followed the walking Queen Mother, and this time around, Queen Mother did nothing to stop her.
Both of them walked quietly on their path, which was a dirt trail meandering through a large forest.
With the perceptions of the two, they knew that the forest they were in was extremely large, and walking at their current pace will not be enough to leave the forest.
But these two were not planning to leave the forest at all.
A few minutes later, and the silent walk between the two were broken as Professor Frances spoke up.
"Tree girl, why are you holding back?"
"What?" Queen Mother replied in confusion as she gave the professor a bewildered gaze. "Why would you say that?"
"Oh please, it was so f**king obvious to me that you are holding back!" Professor Frances said as she started giggling like a maniac. "Just looking at you right now makes me both angry and happy!"
Her unkempt hair shook behind her as the predatory smile on her face widened. Her breathing began to quicken too as her skin flushed in excitement.
"…" Queen Mother could not help but tremble as she saw the professor's current appearance, which made her inwardly regret bringing her here.
"Tree girl, do you know what one of my goals as a bio-sculptor was?" Professor Frances said as she looked at Queen Mother's body greedily. "Do you know what it was?"
"…What is it?" Queen Mother replied, as she did her best to not get creeped out by the professor's intense gaze.
"It's just simple… One of my goals was the creation of a perfect living being!" Professor Frances replied as drool began to leak out of her mouth. "Ohh… Just thinking about that is already making me hot!"
The professor then began to pant as her hands slowly approached Queen Mother.
"Oi, Frances! What the hell are you trying to do now!" Queen Mother panickedly said as the professor took some steps towards her. "Oi! Take a hold of yourself!"
"Even with my talent, I was still unable to create a perfect living being." The professor said as her hands landed on top of Queen Mother's shoulder.
She then started massaging Queen Mother's shoulder in a way that is similar to the way that she had treated her experimental subjects.
Queen Mother started to shiver as this happened, and it made her suspicions towards the professor higher.
But even with what, Queen Mother did not remove the professor's hand off her shoulder, as she realized that she could fish more information from the professor this way.
"Do you know how much I am frustrated by that? I am so angry at myself for failing to create a perfect living being!" Professor Frances started shouting out as she increased the intensity of her massage. "I thought I was just a s**tstain that doesn't deserve to live because of my failures!"
"…."
"After countless failed experiments, I came to the conclusion that maybe a perfect living being is not possible. But then, you appeared." At this point, the professor's hands stopped moving as her eyes stared at Queen Mother directly.
The professor's cold, calculating gaze pierced at Queen Mother's eyes as she slowly said,
"At the moment that I saw you, I realized that you are a perfect living being. The powerful life force that you are letting out, and the way that your body worked made me sure that you are a perfect living being!" The professor said these words with so much glee that she almost literally sparkled. "Do you know how excited I was when I first saw you? I was on cloud nine, and I could only force myself to not salivate on you at that time!"
"What are you talking about? Are you high at that-"
"Don't you say that I am high. I never get high." Professor Frances said, interrupting Queen Mother's hasty reply. "And don't you dare lie to me. Even if I do not have Alina's eyes, I already knew your body language enough. Lie, and I will see it.
"…"
After hearing the professor saying these words, Queen Mother did his best to stay quiet as she hid her panic.
"Bad. This is bad." Queen Mother thought to herself as she tried to avoid the professor's stare. "That is the secret that I haven't told anyone yet, including Alex and Alina! Why, why of all the people who could know it, this woman was the first one?"
"I already heard your story from Alina. A World Tree who spawned a powerful race, and someone who took a humanoid form? Hmph, that is already enough to confirm that you are a perfect living being!" Professor Frances continued talking as Queen Mother stayed silent.
At this point, Professor' Frances eyes suddenly narrowed as she gave the Professor an irritated glare.
"With your status as a perfect living being, you should be powerful enough to beat up the enemies that we had at the Four Moons World!" Professor Frances said as she shook her head. "And yet, instead of showing off your full capabilities, you still went on with your normal form. Why the hell would you hold back that way?"
"…"
"What's the matter tree girl? Did you lose the ability to speak? Come on! I want you to talk more about yourself!"
"…I have my reasons for not talking about it." In the end, Queen Mother was forced to reply as Professor Frances did not stop on pestering her. "It's just as simple as that."
"Hmph, you dare keep secrets from Alina and Alex, and yet you say that you are being alienated by them?" Professor Frances mockingly said as she shook her head. "How ridiculous!"
"You-"
Queen Mother could have continued on arguing with Professor Frances, but she was forced to stop talking as she suddenly felt the arrival of multiple presences.
"Frances, I feel some people approaching this place!" Queen Mother said as she placed the matter of her talk with the professor at the back of her mind. "With the speed that they are going, it will be impossible for us to hide. We have no choice… but to interact with them!"
"Hahaha! Such optimistic words! Interact? Are you thinking that this will not devolve into a fight?" Professor Frances said as she suppressed her chortles.
"If they try to attack us, then I will make sure to pay them back." Queen Mother said as her eyes narrowed.
"Oh! You will fight? Will you then show your power as a perfect living being?"
"Shut your mouth Frances. I don't need distractions like that now."
"….You are just like Alex. You both change the topics when you don't want to talk about it. You two are no fun at all."
"…" Queen Mother chose to not reply to that as she waited for the people that she detected to arrive.
Queen Mother only had to wait for a few seconds before she had a visual cue on the newcomers.
It was a group of 5 people, who were all wearing gray robes coupled with jewelries that were pulsing with power.
These people were all flying in the sky, as if they had abilities that were allowing them to perform this feat.
All around their bodies, numerous objects floated, with each object emitting auras that were enough to make Queen Mother and Professor Frances wary.
"…"
As they approached Queen Mother, Queen Mother started to feel tense as she felt that these 5 people were no mere pushovers.
The 5 people started to look tense too, as they seemed to have sensed danger from both Queen Mother and Professor Frances.
"…" The two sides started at each other intently, with no one from them making a single move.
This state could have continued until the end of the day, until one of the newcomers started to talk.
"You two… what are you doing inside our territory? Do you know that this place is owned by the Covenant of Immortals? Are you here to join us? Or are you our enemies?"
"!!!"
Obviously, Queen Mother and Professor Frances had no idea on how to answer that question.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
