The Anime Trope System: Stone vs. Viper #2 a LitRPG. (ATS) Page 3

  "If you can’t kill, blow em up, blow em up. If your wife bakes a human pie, kiss her then eat the pie, la la la la blow em up, blow em up."

  "Crock’s toe! Shut the fuck up ya dumb gecko," one of the other Lizard guards snarled.

  "Oh you know you like the song. Blow em up, blow em up."

  Chika deactivated Peek and Eavesdrop, pale. Zeth sat on his high horse as if he was some honorable warrior, meanwhile planning to just bomb them and half of the city. Strange…she didn’t feel like this was an order he’d make. Why would his troops put their master in this kind of danger? They were pretty far to give a fair warning—not to mention the demon lord’s daughter being among the chaos.

  Chika didn’t have time to play detective with a bunch of scummy monsters. She burst through the door, armed with a dagger.

  The first Lizard guard looked at her as he fell backward, the blade poking out of his skull, blood spraying from the wound like a crimson fountain.

  "Crock’s ass! Kill her," yelled an unseen voice.

  The two remaining guards obeyed the overseer, rushing the silver-haired girl. She leapt and landed on top of the closest monster with a single-handed handstand. A quick twist of its head downed it.

  The other guard paled, backing way.

  "Crock’s ass, crock’s toe, she’s a monster."

  Chika grinned, pink aura radiating around her like the aura of the su. Before the monster could take his next break, she had a second dagger, well a large kitchen knife, plunged into its throat.

  A forth lizard guard wearing a red robe appeared. The overseer. He spoke with a voice that sounded like a man struggling with a heavy weight.

  "Crock’s toe, worm, I’ll toast ya. You won’t be stopping this operation."

  Chika allowed her foresight to reveal the lizardman’s nature. It showed a little information, but enough for her to keep in mind in case she needed answers later.

  Lizard Wizard

  Level: 26

  Gist: lizard sorcerer monster that specializes in fire.

  Chika pulled out her last hidden dagger, sending it flying. The wizard thrusted a hand forward. A fireball leapt from its scaly palm, confronting the weapon, melting it. Exactly what the young woman wanted.

  [Chika activated Source hunter.]

  The lizard could only scream when she simply appeared in front of him, midair, her hands on his head. A hard twist instantly killed the pest.

  [Achievement earned: Defeat two or more enemies in a row using head twists! You go girl!]

  Source hunter was the young woman’s newest skill, learned from raising her power level. Within a certain range, she could instantly teleport in front of anyone that used a weapon or casted magic. Source hunter also gave her a fifty percent boost for the next attack.

  After making sure there were no hidden guards, she left, deciding it was best not to disturb the bombs, just in case they were sensitive. Some powders reacted badly to air, according to a TV show she once watched. If the dimensional door didn’t vanish, she’d simply call the cops.

  Present at Clyde’s apartment….

  All mouths were agape, eyes staring at the silver-haired young woman in wonder. Clyde feared and respected her.

  "Thanks for saving our lives," he said, honestly. "But…who could’ve set this up? Any idea, Alice?"

  The demoness was frowning, eyes flashing with indignation. Chika nestled next to Clyde.

  "I’m not sure," Alice said, "but I have a suspicion."

  "A suspicion? Who?" Harumi said.

  "I think my cousin knows who." She stood. "I…" She looked at the cake. "Well, after we finish eating—then I’ll go."

  Everyone burst into laughter.

  [Volume 2.] Episode 12 (Part 1): A Mystic is Born! Finally! Card Contract.

  Tuesday. Week 2. Year 1.

  Clyde jerked awake after a dreamless slumber. A system prompt filled the young man’s mind before the first line of complaint could flow from his mouth.

  [Engaging the reading of Path of the Mystic.]

  The book leapt out of the inventory and into his arms. Clyde sat up and focused on it. Like the prior books, it shimmered, but instead of golden sparkles, a pillar of sky-blue light struck the young man. He not only knew but felt as if he transcended. For just a moment, he was connected with nature, spirits, energy and even the universe. Power coursed through his veins, shaping his DNA, his magic, spirit energy, enhancing his life force. He rose more than a foot into the air, electricity pulsing around, eyes shining like lamps.

  Then just as quickly as the event happened, it stopped. Ashes of the book floated off into nothingness. Prompts filled his mind’s vision as Clyde fell back to the bed. The first was his stat page.

  Main story.

  Investigate the mysterious cards. (MS).

  Meet with Selkie on Tuesday. (MS).

  Clyde took a moment to process everything. His new skills, a FORM, the trust bond. Even next to his name was Mystic. Did this book truly change his being, deeper than what he felt.

  His senses felt different. He could sense everything, including the spiritual energy of the person sleeping underneath his blankets, next to him.

  That made him flinch. He didn’t drink anything, and everyone left around seven. Who or what…He thought he’d panic, but a strange calm took over. This didn’t mean he couldn’t panic, enough fear could take any man, but…this, whatever it was wouldn’t make him so much as flinch.

  He pulled back the blankets to see…Neko sleeping soundly, dressed in a tank top and panties. She opened her eyes, smiling at him.

  "Nya." She licked her lips, invoking the rise of a dormant horn.

  "Neko, a nice surprise, but didn’t you go back to your homeland?" Clyde said.

  "Yep, then I came back," she said, sitting up. "Nya, you know why I’m here. Don’t make me spell it for you. A cat in heat spares no patience."

  She pounced Clyde, beginning an assault of kisses, while massaging his horn. Clyde decided the meeting with Selkie could wait.

  Neko barely allowed him to breathe. Her panties were soaked—the edge of his leg felt as if it was dipped slightly into a lake.

  Suddenly, Neko’s tail pulled off his clothes so fast, he barely had time to realize his nakedness. She joined him, their clothes scattered about the room.

  Clyde almost laughed as he let the thought of choosing sex over his "destiny" slip into his mind. What’s that, getting back to your own dimension, He thought. No, let’s play the game of bed wrestle instead.

  And indeed, he did. Neko’s tail wrapped around his erection and massaged. She licked his neck, returned to kissing, licked his chest, return to the kiss assault, then purred.

  He used that to take control, laying the catgirl on her back, gently entering her. She let a song slip from her mouth before covering it. And she was tight.

  Blushing furiously, she said under her breath, "I’ve never done this before."

  Clyde wanted to call bullshit, but the tightness, her embarrassed face, and sudden shyness made it hard to argue.

  He began a slow thrust which she tightened, breathing huskily, holding onto the young man. As they neared climax, Neko pounced Clyde, mounting and riding. Sometimes she stroked with her tail or nearly choked Clyde.

  When he grabbed it to pull it away from his neck out of frustration, Neko let out a moan that indicated raw ecstasy. Clyde almost forgot to pull out before unleashing a load that flicked onto the catgirl’s breasts. She laid back, quivering, breathing hard. They both panted.

  "Nya, not enough," Neko said five minutes later.

  "Look, I’m not complaining but I’ve got a pretty important meeting," Clyde said as he crawled out of the bed. She gave him a pouty face as he dodged her tail.

  "You sure she can’t wait for just one more hour," the catgirl said.

  Clyde almost considered it and felt a fool for not going again, but his long list of objectives today needed to be addressed. The meeting, Clare, dojo and crafting before the night’s grind. If he expected to stand a chance against the demon lord, his eyes, or even Melody, he couldn’t toss aside his training. A trip to the grasslands for the first time didn’t sound like a bad idea. After being forced to buy an expensive magical printer, it was time to put the map to use. As if agreeing with him, a prompt revealed itself.

  [Quest: train in the Libado Grasslands. Accept: yes or no?]

  He accepted. Before he closed out the prompt, another one appeared right in front of it.

  [Your stats have been temporarily boosted by 2% for having sex. 1% bonus for demon compatibility with Neko.]

  [Let it be known that you CAN impregnate women from this dimension. Always practice responsible sex!]

  Clyde facepalmed, dismissing the messages from his mind. He wouldn’t be surprised if they started giving him a talk about the birds and the bees.

  "Nya, let’s shower together."

  Clyde gave the horny beast kin a soft skeptical look, barely hiding the hint of a smile. She was funny and carried on a lightheartedness he wished was allowed to have.

  "Sure, but try not to tempt me," Clyde said. "Selkie’s an entity. I’d rather not make her wait. Especially since she has answers I need."

  "You know, you could ask me," Neko said. "Did that not occur to you?"

  "It did, but the entity knows otherworldly things," Clyde said. He couldn’t forget her ridiculous stats. Twenty thousand percent for both HP and MP…the impossibilities.

  Neko shrugged.

  "Are you sure about that?" She stood up and licked Clyde’s cheek slowly, massaging his horn. The erection punched back into existence. Neko grinned.

  [Your relationship with Neko has changed from Very Curious to Frantically sexually interested. Warning, if you do not keep control of the situation, Neko’s heat may cause her to strongly push for sex. Very strongly.]

  "Nya, come on," she said, stroking the young man. She pinned him against the wall and drew herself against the young man. The cat girl pulled his horn into her, kissing him, longing on her face. He almost gave in but decided to be responsible. Even if Neko could give him answers, this arrangement with the entity was on his quest log. Unknown rewards too.
