I could only stare in silence at the figure before me..

Black hair, pure white eyes, when I say white, I mean completely white, pupils and irises, everything was white, if I didn’t know better I’d have thought she was blind, but the light within those jewels suggested otherwise..

She was short, shorter than any of the women I know, probably at 5’5, no wonder I couldn’t see her, that was basically a dwarf before me..

But though she was short, her body was nothing to scoff at, I had yet to see anyone with a body that could compete with Aunt V, Clarissa was a close second but I think I’ll have to reshuffle that list..

Her pillowy breasts looked ready to spill out of the treacherous pale blue sundress she was putting on, her voluptuous behind made what should have been a floor length dress nothing but a thigh high top, her succulent thighs being on full display.

It was at times like these that I appreciated being taller than the general public, how else could I have enjoyed such a premium view..

"You know, you’ll make me self conscious if you keep staring like that." The lady spoke up once again, breaking me from my trance..

"Damn it.. I came here to seek out challenges to get stronger, but why the hell are the only challenges I’m getting those that test the wrong things.." I couldn’t help berating myself, once again I’d been drawn into a woman’s charms.

Once I can attribute to my natural love for beauties, twice I could put up with, but three times? Something was definitely wrong somewhere and the sooner I figure out what, the better it’ll be, I can’t be going around entranced by women.

Although, another look at the art before me and I couldn’t say I was purely at fault here because..

"Who’s idea was it to let such a woman go walk around in such a scandalous thing?". First it was Khalifa and her "outfit" now this..

What were the use of uniforms if the ones that were meant to put them on decided they’d rather tempt the world..

"Hello..... anyone up there?" The lady jumped, hands waving before my eyes, the fight I had to fight, to resist the urge to look down was harder than anything I’d faced so far..

"Ahem.. sorry about that, I was just a bit stumped.." I answered, finally regaining some sense of control..

"Hihihi.. it’s fine, so long as it’s someone like you that’s looking, then I don’t mind at all~~" she cooed..

"Umm, okay? I guess?" I scratched the back of my head, perplexed..

"So what are you doing at the instructors wing?" She asked cheerfully..

"Umm, sorry, but, I don’t think I know you?" I wasn’t about it start having conversations with random bombshell instructors, it was only the first day and I wasn’t ready for any curveballs today..

"Ohh... silly me, sorry, I’m Elizabeth, my friends just call Liz though.." she smiled, an expression too beautiful for words to describe..

"Hello there, instructor Elizabeth." I greeted respectfully, no need being stuck up when the lady has been nothing but nice..

"Pooh... I thought I told you to call me Liz?" She pouted, arms crossing over her chest.. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"Hmm? But you said only your friends call you that?"..

"Well, we’re friends now aren’t we?"

"We just met though?"

"Hmmm... hmmm.. doesn’t matter, I say we’re friends so we’re friends, right?" She shook her head stubbornly, her expression clearly saying she wasn’t going to take no for an answer..

"Sigh... fine, have it your way.." I gave up..

"Say it.."

"Say what?"

"My name.."

"Why??"

"Cause I want to hear you say it? Pleaseee....." even a stone would move when a 5’5 bombshell of a dame was making puppy eyes at you, with her arms folded on those massive breasts, what more mere flesh and blood like me?

I caved instantly "Fine... Nice to meet you, Liz.."

"Hehehehehe... you said it.. you said it.. so nice.. so nice... hehehehehehe..." she held her cheeks in her hands as she started swooning, her face turning red as she repeated words incoherently..

"Damn.. this lady has some screws loose huh?" Well, she was hot so I guess she was allowed to get away with it..

"Alright then, Liz, I’ll be seeing you I guess.." I decided to leave the swooning woman to her devices, making my way towards Valen’s place..

"Where the hell is his place anyway?" I just realized a troubling issue.

I had no idea where in hell that man stayed and trying to make heads or tails of anything here wasn’t in anyway in my list of things to do..

"Hey... don’t go yet.." Elizabeth’s soft voice sounded from behind me as she held me back..

"Hmm? You need something else?" I couldn’t help asking as my hands went to where her grip was..

"Uhhh.. you didn’t answer my question from earlier..." she answered as she let go, a blush painting her cheeks..

I couldn’t make sense of anything with this woman, but I answered regardless..

"I’m looking for instructor Valen’s place, he told me to come find him."

"Oh? What did you to upset that cranky old man?" She asked, as she turned her head cautiously..

"Hah.. it’s nothing serious, I’m here because he said he had something for me."

"Why would sir "gloomsalot" want to give you anything that isn’t a robotic death stare." She was still cautiously looking around as she answered, her name calling not stopping one bit..

"Why do you keep doing that?" I couldn’t help asking, she was acting like a criminal agreaid of being caught, an undeniably cute act..

"Shhh... that old man can hear your thoughts, I’m just making sure he doesn’t hear me calling him names."

"If you know you don’t want to be caught, then why do you keep calling the old man names."

"Hehehe.. because it’s fun, why else?"

"Are you really sure you’re an instructor here? You look and act more like someone I’d love to get dinner with sometime." I laughed..

"Don..don’t.. don’t.. say things like that, you’ll cause misunderstandings.." she was swooning again.

"Yea, definitely some screws loose"..

"So, you know where I can the old man?" I didn’t have time to let her settle down, so I held her shoulders as I asked, not forgetting that each time wasted mattered..

"Yea... yea..." I was honestly surprised there wasn’t steam blowing out the top of her head, what with how red her entire face was at the moment..

"Great... where is it?"

"Give.. give me your card.." she stuttered, still not looking at me..

I handed her the card and after some nervous tinkering, she returned it..

"I’ve added the coordinates of the place, just follow the indicator.." her voice was barely audible, but since it was just us two, it wasn’t that hard to hear her..

"Alright, thanks a lot Liz, maybe we’ll see each other again, that’ll probably be during class though hahahaha.." I laughed as I left I’m a hurry....

........

"He said it... we’re friends.. hehehe.. friends.. wait.. he wants to have dinner with me, is that what friends do? But, that’s what people do on, da..dates.. hehehe.. he wants to go out with me.. ahhh... I knew it... I knew it... he’s per~~~fect... just perfect..."

"Dante... Dante.... Hehehehe.... Class.. yes... class.. we’ll definitely be seeing each other soon.."...

...

Thanks to the bombshell instructor, it took me significantly less time to find my way..

The moment I arrived at the place indicated by the marker on the display my card had popped up, the environment changed, the same feeling I got whenever I was teleported washed over me once again..

"You’re here.." a cold, indifferent voice reached my ears before I could even get my bearings right..

I steadied myself in a hurry as I looked around..

What could I say? It was exactly what I’d expected from this robotic old man.

The place was a vast grassy forest, with large trees scattered across the landscape, a small cabin say just at the entrance to the forest, at the door stood Valen...

All his no-nonsense persona draped in a plain black robe, his hands clasped behind him as he regarded..

"That’s over 30 minutes it took you to get here, despite my many warnings..." I couldn’t help shivering slightly the moment I heard those words..

"Look... old man.. I can explain.. there was this woman.." I tried explaining myself..

"Ahh, Elizabeth? Right? Sir "gloomsalot" was it?"

"Pffft..." I couldn’t help it, hearing him say such a thing with that straight face, it was just too funny..

"So you find that funny..."

"No.. not at all, old man.. it’s just.."

"And you think I’m old as well.."

"This... I mean.." I scratched my head..

How do I answer such a thing? Of course I thought you were old, he had to be at least what? 50? Man’s ancient at this point..

"Ahh, so I’m so old I’m ancient huh? Good, very good, I hope you’re ready for the consequences of being a wise guy?" The moment I saw that robot smile, I knew it was over..

"Fuck my life.."
