The Anime Trope System: Stone vs. Viper, #3 a LitRPG (ATS) Read online

  "Ah, you mean boring and human? Nope, it’s not in our blood," said the hornet guide. "Our queen should be out in a bit. Please wait patiently at the table. If you want to talk about being civil, then have honey tea with us and chat. We can work something out." She entered another set of doors.

  "Toru, you really are unlucky," Clyde said.

  "Tell me about it," Toru said, his voice resigned.

  "We’ll go ahead and get you down," Clyde said. "Kil—"

  A hornet that was clearly the queen walked in followed by two servants. She sat at the table and gestured for the others to take a seat. They didn’t.

  She was a curvy woman with long blonde hair and large red eyes. Eyes that were part human, part hornet. Large breasts and a hell of a lot of cleavage set the tone of the large room. Her silky see-through dress drew Clyde’s eyes for a least a few seconds. Enough to glance at the lingerie underneath. Yep, it was time for him to get out of here.

  "Let’s get to the point," Clyde said, annoyed at the cliché, "release my friend there and I won’t have to burn down this place."

  The queen smiled.

  "Manly bravado, oh how I missed that," she said. "Would you like to visit the insides of me? I haven’t had proper sex in years and our hive is dwindling. We need men to inject their seeds into us. Well, I do."

  "Then why don’t you go to the city and ask for volunteers?" Clyde said. "Set up advertisements or something for massaging services."

  "You know we can’t do that and especially not in a forest that belongs to…her," the queen said. "Don’t try to shove your human logic onto us. But…you know what you can shove into me." She stood. "So enough of the pretenses. You can join your friend or trade spaces with him. One of you will be staying. I’m looking for a husband." She smiled, fondly. "Of course, we are hornets. And do things differently from our honeybee cousins, but you’d enjoy every moment of it."

  "You’re mistaking if you think we’re going to stand by and let you make demands," Yuki said. Purple aura blasted around her. "You have no idea who you’re dealing with."

  The queen snarled.

  "You don’t scare me, demoness. I carve up your kind for breakfast."

  She stepped forward. Her guards ran in front of her.

  "Kill them. And detain the man. I will be violating him, a lot. We’ll see which will make the better husband."

  Clyde equipped the wind blade. Three-day training camp my ass, he thought. Fuck this. Day one and he was already face to face with a dungeon boss.

  [Volume 3.] Episode 18 (Part 2)

  Queen Hornet- Liana

  Level: 67

  Type: Monster

  Worships: Forest Deity Ai Tel Nekta

  Special: Queen Lustful Sting [Great chance to paralyze. Hornet has a GREAT chance to lose control and vigorously super-rape victims. Only works on males. The venom heightens the erection to the max.]

  Weakness: Fire and lust.

  Resistances: Earth, nature, forest.

  Secret: cannot stop thinking about sex. Every moment of the day, it’s about sex with a man. Despite being a queen, she doesn’t like women at all.

  [Your party has entered a Boss fight!]

  Level sixty-seven. Clyde switched from his wind blade to his newly acquired beauty. A sword with a gold handle and a crystal-like blade. It nearly glowed.

  [Legendary Sword: Ludacris (Ashfall family loom)- +30 to attack. Fallen Angel element. Can fire raw magic from the weapon. Does magic damage. Lv. 1]

  This was his prize for destroying the Ashfall family. A legendary scaling sword. He dashed toward the queen, intending to end the fight as quickly possible. Both of her guards dove in the way. Clyde slashed through them like butter. They despawned into purple flames. Holy shit, they were both level thirty-nine, but that was still an insta-kill.

  [Liana activated Ai’s might.]

  The queen of the hornets aimed one hand at the young man and unleashed a green beam of magic. Clyde blocked it with a Spirit shield, though he was annoyed that he had to waste it for the short cooldown—but the queen moved fast.

  [Neko used Yun Sek Tekko.]

  [Kitome used Heart arrow.]

  Millions of bolts of lightning struck the hornet, too fast for her to dodge. Following the electricity were Kitome’s hearts.

  [Liana used Tier 2 skill: All mighty shield.]

  Somehow, just in the nick of time, the hornet saved herself from major damage. Chika used that opportunity to come out of her stealth to cutdown Toru. Clyde decided that she had more brains than all of them—and not because she was the top student at the academy. Flinging magic around while the monster girl magnet was tied up put his life in unnecessary danger. Then again, he was the team lead. He can’t do everything himself.

  "Toru either fight bare-assed or go hide somewhere," Chika said.

  "Go hide," Clyde said. "Be a reserve until this is over or something."

  Toru obliged to the team lead’s relief, ducking behind sturdy furniture. It’d be really annoying to see his junk swing around, Clyde thought.

  "Oh no you don’t!" Liana snarled then flew with all of her might toward Toru. She met Yuki’s foot on that side of the room. The demoness kicked the hornet right into Clyde. He caught the airflow too late, right before he got the chance to use another skill.

  "Hey, what the fuck—agh!"

  [Liana had used Queen Lustful Sting.]

  [You have been paralyzed.]

  The hornet giggled as the lust clouded her eyes. She almost ripped the shirt off Clyde, but Chika had no intention of just standing there while he got super-raped.

  [Chika used Stealth Bash]

  The rogue came out of her stealth to kick the shit out of the horny hornet. The force of the blow spiraled the insect queen twenty feet away.

  [Liana’s HP has dropped to 125%]

  No matter how much Clyde tried, he couldn’t move. And his erection stood straight up.

  "Here, let me," Yuki said. "He’s temporary paralyzed, but we don’t have the luxury of waiting."

  "No, he’s mine!" Liana yelled.

  "We’ll go hold her off," Chika said then motioned for Neko and Kitome to follow.

  Clyde knew it was the venom, but he just wanted to have wild sex. So much of it. Fuck, he felt like he could go at it for an eternity.

  Yuki placed one hand on his chest and with the other, grabbed his erection. His eyes widened.

  "You may as well feel good for the few seconds it’d take to remove the paralysis."

  [Yuki activated Refresher!]

  She did that and stoked vigorously and with so much skill. She switched to using her large breasts. The woman was so hot that Clyde unleashed his load, right onto her face.

  "There, better now?" She wiped it off with the side of her shirt

  Clyde felt amazing, although a little embarrassed. How did they get away with this in the middle of battle?

  Everyone else had their focus on the queen, even Toru. Yuki winked.

  "Let’s finish this, Young Master Clyde."

  Clyde gave her a sideways glance that was too comedic to be taken seriously. Yuki giggled.

  [Liana’s HP has dropped to 70%]

  Liana snarled then dropped to her knees, holding both hands into the air.

  "Oh great Forest Deity—please take me over. Please, I beg you to punish the fools who dare step defile your great presence. I am yours, my goddess."

  The voice of a perfect woman answered.

  "Your call has been heard, my loyal servant. I will use your body."

  Liana glowed until she was as bright as the sun. The orange hornet features turned snow white. Same for her hair. Her eyes switched from the red hue to a purple color and more human-like. Insect wings became angel wings.

  "I am Ai Tel Nekta, the ruler of this forest and the one who will make you suffer for interfering with those who pledged themselves to me. Kneel!"

  The compulsion was sudden, but had no effect on Clyde whatsoever. Unfortunately, the same couldn
’t be said for Chika, Neko, Yuki, Kitome, or even Toru. He analyzed the creature before him.

  Liana (Possessed by Forest Deity Ai Tel Nekta)

  Level: 426

  Type: Minor Deity.

  Works under: N/A

  Special: ???

  Weakness: taint. Metal.

  Resistances: dark, fire, evil, lust, demon, devil, miasma, moon, dark arc.

  Secret: wishes she could fall in love like any normal woman or girl. She bares the heart of a woman that simply wants to be loved.

  Clyde hefted his sword, nervous. Level four hundred fucking twenty-six. Very hard? What an understatement.

  "Perish."

  [Your party has entered a Death Sentence!]

  Ai Tel Nekta teleported beside Clyde so fast, the man could only Flash step to avoid the possible one-hit kill from her touch. Nekta allowed her hardened expression to drop to a motherly smile.

  [Ai Tel Nekta used Alpha and Omega Tier spell: The Sorrowful Last Breath of the Dying Warrior. Warning, this is an unblockable attack.]

  Clyde was about to Flash step until he realized where she aimed. The kneeling women. They were about to die. Eyes glazed, tears oozed from Chika’s eyes as she helplessly watched Nekta’s hand glow brighter and brighter. Yuki and Neko trembled but could do nothing against the compulsion. They were good as dead if Clyde did nothing.

  He pulled out an item he held into his inventory for a long time. Often forgot it was there, but knew that he’d eventually find a good use for it.

  [Natzo hand bomb. (Does Fire and Metal damage on enemies caught within the blast. 40% chance to cause burns, 20% chance to deafen. 30% chance to stun.)]

  [You invoked Mystic wrath!]

  It was a perfect throw. The deity stood maybe thirty yards from everyone. Clyde Flash stepped over to Toru, grabbed him then let out another flash step to the women. With the last of his magic, well, until it regenerated, he put up a spirit shield. The deity was confused, unfamiliar with the object. It exploded in her face.

  [Weakness exploited! Too bad that’s not even close to enough.]

  The explosion of whites and reds and oranges passed right over the spirit shield then snuffed out like a candle. Clyde realized for some reason he held onto Chika in an embrace–when that wasn’t necessary. The shield was large enough to cover an entire party. He let go, a little embarrassed.

  Fire surged in all directions, hungry, eager to burn down the hive and their deity looked as if she had no fucks to give.

  "An interesting diversion, mortal man, but I’m afraid it won’t do you any good." Nekta stood in front of them stark naked, but completely unharmed. "Well, time to die."

  Clyde racked his brain for ideas but decided it was now or never. Reach out to the power that was always just out of his reach, risking the strain or let everyone die.

  "No don’t!"

  [Alice activated Slip-Distraction!]

  [Nekta is distracted for 1 second.]

  Alice, Tear, and Natalia burst through the doors. "Tear, get us out of here, now. She can’t do anything outside of her forest."

  [Tear activated Jump!]

  Barely evading a green blast of death, the party found themselves back in front of the inn. A robe awaited Toru on a bench. Alice angrily shoved it at Toru then grabbed Clyde, hauling off to the side.

  The young man expected a slap, as he knew he’d deserve one for leaving her of all people behind, but it never came. Instead, she looked worried. That worry turned into anger.

  "That was stupid. Admirable for not hesitating to save your friend. Smart for bringing very strong party members with you—but stupid none the less." She hugged him. "You’re already fated to be ripped away from me one day. Don’t speed that up. It didn’t hit me until mid-rest, an old legend about a forest. She’s a minor deity that rules over the plants and insects, but overtime became an angry mess."

  "Would you believe me if it was something as simple as wanting to be loved?" Clyde said.

  Alice let out a breath then spoke in a lower voice. Not that it escaped Neko’s ears.

  "Tonight, I’ll show you what it means to want love." She stormed off, leaving Clyde standing there, mouth agape.

  "Nya!"

  Somehow, he foresaw Neko’s pounce and stepped to the side, but caught the back of her shirt with one hand so that she didn’t hit the ground.

  The cool evening air put the party at ease, despite the feeling of the forest.

  "We’ll spend the night, but fuck three days," Clyde said. "Think that was training enough. Melody’s going to be pissed though."

  "Melody’s coming?" Tear asked.

  "In the morning," Clyde said. "But after today with the monster girl interruptions, fuck this."

  "I’m with you there," Toru said. "I just want to get back home to Fumi."

  Clyde shook his head then went inside the inn. The sounds of intense moaning and Seth’s grunting filled the air. Topping it off was Alice’s shout.

  "Natalia, where’d you put the clamps?"

  He grabbed the loli with both hands.

  "No, you don’t. I’ll buy you five large cupcakes. Your favorite kind."

  Stars seemingly glistened into the loli-witch’s eyes.

  "Pervy-monster you have a deal," she said. Tear facepalmed. Kitome gave Clyde an unreadable gaze before she left.

  [Volume 3.] Episode 18 (Part 3)

  While everyone else played cards, as it was only eight, the exhausted Clyde went to bed. He closed his eyes, content from the shower. Tomorrow, he’d soak one more time in the hot spring to get rid of the last of the strain. He’d continue to let small amounts of the power enter his daily life in hopes of getting used to it. He didn’t gain much from the quest of rescuing Toru, but was just glad his friend made it out whole.

  Suddenly, the door slowly opened. Someone snuck in then quietly closed it. Within seconds, she crawled into his bed.

  "You took your time Al—"

  He froze to see a blue-haired beauty staring back at him, longing in her eyes. She playfully stuck her tongue out at him.

  "Kitome?" he hissed. She kissed him, a little awkwardly.

  "I—I’ve never done this before," she said, flushed.

  The cuteness was just too much for Clyde. His erection maxed out so fast he thought he’d release right then and there. Kitome undid her robe.

  "Please be gentle."

  Clyde forced himself not to nut—the hotheaded brutal girl was now sweet and vulnerable and adorable. He almost thought it’d be a waste for him to violate her purity, not that he’d turn her away. He wasn’t that stupid. Kitome was so cute, that he found himself kissing her just for a taste. Her soft lips met his and soon he stuck two fingers inside. She let out a cute yelp that made Clyde grin.

  The violent girl was now candy. Maybe cotton candy or flowers or anything sweet and cute. He almost wondered if he actually deserved to be the one taking her virginity.

  Unlike Alice, who is undoubtedly his other half if he had to be honest, Kitome felt too good for him. And that just made Clyde want to ravish her more.

  He gently entered tightness that threatened to make him fill her up. She held him with her arms and legs, squeezing tightly, breathing heavily, moaning softly. He kissed as he thrusted gently at first then sped up. The girl was an ocean of wetness and warmness. And she looked to be enjoying it even more than him.

  "Faster," she whispered. "It feels so good. I could do this every day."

  Clyde became a train and the bed rocked. Fifteen minutes later, Kitome climaxed a second ahead of Clyde. She frowned when he unloaded on her face. Some got in her mouth while she panted to catch her breath.

  "You…" She wiped with her robe. Kitome kissed Clyde once more.

  "I’m not sure how I feel about this," she said, "Alice owning you and all, but…sex is fun."

  Before Clyde could say anything, the blue-haired young woman snuck out of his room, mischievous smile on her face. He had to shower again due to the juices. Eventually, he managed
to fall asleep.

  It wasn’t until midnight when his door opened again, but not sneakily. Whoever was there didn’t care who saw. She crawled next to him in a cuddle. He peered into pink eyes. Eyes with love in them. He was more than glad she was there—his blood pulsed—and his kissed first. Alice melted into him, pulling away his robe, wiggling out of hers.

  Then she had him against the wall mounted and riding Clyde, grin on her face. The young man was only caught off guard for a moment before he overpowered her and took control of the ride.

  "That’s right," Alice said. "Not hard enough, not deep enough—faster! Yes! Perfect!"

  The two rolled into an hour of bliss, switching from wild to passionate to wild again. They went at it again and again until a close call, consisting of Clyde missing by a half a second. He needed to stop forgetting to buy condoms. The pullout game was fun until one lost. Not that he wouldn’t take responsibility if he did slip up. He had a lot of Ashfall money to start spending.

  "You can release inside me you know," Alice said as she snuggled closer. He said nothing. She fixed him with a half-glare. "You are my life mate, even if you don’t want to say it aloud. I belong to you and you to me. You said it even before I did, even if not by voice." She huffed. "Humans may have annoying mating rituals, but not even that can get in the way."

  "Alice…"

  "Don’t say anything," she said. "You’re about to ask what I will do if the stone-viper games whisk you away. It’s why you made no move to be devoted to anyone—although only humans take a single mate. Not that I’m any different. I will have no other, but you."
