Chapter 860 – Meeting the beauty

'She... feels like me.' Witch Aiko stared at the beauty in front of her. This would be the first time that she was made speechless by someone's beauty.

'I see...' It all made sense, all the things she said, the both of them.

The Ancestral Nightmare Owl was exceptionally beautiful.

Her body was slender, with just the right amount of curves, easily rivalling Aiko's and at certain parts even exceeding them. Her legs were on the longer side, while her arms and hands were exceptionally small and delicate. However, even with all that, nothing felt strange or out of place.

Her face was picturesque, with what seemed like black makeup, but Aiko knew that this was not makeup, but it was something similar to what she had too.

Her eyes were dark, but when you focused your eyes, you could see that her eyes were closer to dark brown. Yet a moment later, they had this vivid green colour, which startled her.

Her eyebrows were thin, but not like sword's, but like a gentle brush. They felt melancholic, like she suffered her whole life, a fragile beauty that would stir many emotions in anyone who saw her.

Her nose was small, smaller than anyone she saw, but still obvious enough that it attracted attention. Her lips were of similar size, but Aiko felt like she could expand them at will.

She had a veil that covered her face, but her beauty was still obvious even through it.

Her peach skin was glistening under the sun, yet it felt unnatural that she was so out in the open.

Her ears were hidden somewhere under her hair, but her slender neck was exposed.

"I want to take a bite." Witch Aiko blurted out.

"... What?" The Ancestral Nightmare Owl seemed taken aback.

"Nothing." Witch Aiko shamelessly blurted out as she scanned her whole body again. 'Can't mix my thoughts. Can't mix my thoughts.'

The Ancestral Nightmare Owl's hair was long, but puffed up. It felt like part of her hair were actually feathers, so it gave her this unique and wild feeling. She had several hairpins, all of them were dark, but with different designs, all relating to different kinds of owls. The hair was not messy, but there were many bundles of strands 'tangled' into the hairpins, giving her a noble air.

In the middle of her eyebrows was a mark. It felt like a Moon shrouded by endless nightmares, with dream-like fog, but the corners felt like they were tainted by something green.

She had some kind of ornament on her forehead, kind of like a necklace, but for the top of the head.

Her nails were all black, but not pointy at all. They felt more human and less like claws. Her feet were bare, without any shoes or anything covering them. Her toes were especially small and cute with the same nails as her hands.

As for her clothes... Witch Aiko wouldn't want to wear them as they were pretty complex.

Her top part was a simple off-shoulder piece, revealing her upper chest and anything above it, including shoulders.

This part was met with several layers, like feathers on a bird.

The first and see-through layer was a gentle, starry white. It gave her a gentle temperament, but the layer below it was dark, like it was trying to swallow the upper layer. It also had the star-sky feel like the previous one, but this time the stars were not gentle, but chaotic and brute.

Another layer below, it felt like it was supposed to be the colour of the morning sky, but it was hard to say as the black see-through layer swallowed most of the 'light'.

Going just below the chest, there was a large silk belt, it was made mostly out of evening sky colour, with grey 'dust' sprinkled on top. The belt was not ornamental at all, just a simple design, but thanks to her other part of clothes it had depth like never seen before.

Her sides were exposed, but at the same time covered. Every layer other than the white one was removed, giving Aiko a glimpse of her sides and part of the stomach.

Part of her stomach was exposed completely, especially her belly button. She had some kind of ornament piercing her skin with black marks around it.

Aiko didn't like that part at all.

Her hips were covered by a soft silk, but there were parts where you could slip your hands through the fabric and greet her bare skin. This piece was free-flowing, so it was up to the user to conceal everything even when they were moving.

The sides of her legs were exposed, probably because she was sitting, but if she stood up, she would be able to easily conceal them.

Aiko was reminded of the design that she took from Yue when they met.

The Ancestral Nightmare Owl was leaning back against a tree, where she was mostly shaded, but her face was being highlighted by the sun.

"I want to have sex with you." Witch Aiko blurted out. 'Whoa?! You are so pretty! Pretty, pretty!! Can we be friends?'

"???" The Ancestral Nightmare Owl was even more taken aback since the first impression was...

"..." Witch Aiko realised what she did. "Ahem. I have come because of-"

"Sex." The Ancestral Nightmare Owl smiled, amused by this friend.

"Yes- No- I mean yes, but no." Witch Aiko blundered. 'I mean, Mei is cute, while Danji is exactly my type, but why do I feel like she is a bigger vixen than a Vixen?!'

"I'm here because of the Contract!" Witch Aiko proclaimed while beating her sizeable chest.

"Pffft." The Ancestral Nightmare Owl almost giggled out loud. "Welcome to my abode. Where the poison garden lies."

"Thank you, it's my pleasure." Witch Aiko smiled. 'Phew, that was weird.' She never knew that she liked overly beautiful things.

"Come here." The Ancestral Nightmare Owl beckoned 'Aiko'.

"Wait, this is progressing too quickly." Witch Aiko tried to stop her, but the Ancestral Beast just tilted her head.

"You don't want to sit?" It was obvious she was mischievous and also very eccentric.

"I can do it while standing." Witch Aiko nodded her head proudly.

"?" The Ancestral Beast was momentarily confused.

"Ahem." Witch Aiko just couldn't help herself. 'Wait, does that mean that once Mei becomes more beautiful I will just jump her...?' She now felt like some kind of horny Fox.

'Wait, how was the original Fox Village?' Witch Aiko felt like she was missing quite a few things.

"Would you like to do the Contract now, or later?" Witch Aiko smiled at her.

"We are talking about removing it, right?" The Ancestral Beast teased her even more.

"O-obviously." Witch Aiko whistled innocently. She definitely didn't plan to contract her and bring this sexy cutie with her!

"Good." The Ancestral Beast suddenly stopped joking around. "You would've regretted it."

"Oh, don't threaten me with a good time." Witch Aiko stiffened. 'My damned mouth.'

"..." The Ancestral Beast was even more amused. There were a few horny dogs following her everywhere, but they would always try to mask her intentions, so having it up her face all the time felt strange.

But not unpleasant.

"Let's go inside." The Ancestral Beast felt like she might tease her forever at this rate, so she just guided her inside without asking her anything.

It was a simple house, overly simple. Just a log house with a spacious interior, which was unlike any Cultivators abode.

"This is new..." Witch Aiko felt this place was unfamiliar, like it was a completely different world.

"Every Cultivator is used to certain things..." It felt like the Ancestral Beast was hinting at something.

"Do you like it here?" Witch Aiko believed that her thoughts were more important than that horndog.

"No..." The garden was beautiful, the house was mesmerising, but she hated it all.

She grasped a nearby cup. Seeing the cupholders behind her, there were many and many of the same cups. It seems like she used them to vent her stress.

"Would you like to come with me?" Witch Aiko smiled at her gently.

"I'm unable to." The Ancestral Beast shook her head.

"I'm not asking you that. Do you want to?" Witch Aiko smiled, but her eyes were definitely different, so much so that even the Ancestral Beast couldn't help but shudder.

"... What would happen to me?" The Ancestral Beast asked softly. She was a beauty beyond imagination, so she would rather not become a toy.

"Adventures, growing, evolutions, that kind of thing." Witch Aiko smacked her lips. Having aerial support would be incredible.

"And sex." The Ancestral Beast said seriously.

"Yes- No, only if you agree- Ahem." Witch Aiko couldn't help herself. "I want to bite those thighs..." She hit her own fist while murmuring that.

"..." The Ancestral Beast found this situation very amusing. She spoke about sex, and biting, yet she couldn't feel any inherent lust from her.

Attention? Yes. Attentiveness? Of course. Affection? Probably not. Love? No, that was not it either.

Observing 'Aiko' for a long time, the Ancestral Beast believed that she already knew her temperament, but it turned out that was not the case.

'This is... fun...' The Ancestral Beast smiled discreetly.

"Can I... take any path I want?" The Ancestral Beast hesitated asking that question. It felt like she might lose all hope if she heard an answer for it.

"No." Witch Aiko was honest, making the Ancestral Beast sigh.

It was only natural. If others chose her path, they would make her as beautif-

"I don't want you to self-destruct or limit your potential." Witch Aiko was as honest as possible. She would be picking the Bloodlines and everything, but she would give them as much freedom as possible.

'I want... for them to keep me company until the peak.' Witch Aiko already understood that not everyone would be able to follow her, but she still didn't come to terms with this.

She would want to defy this, but she didn't know how much energy she would have to spend on this. Was it even possible?

"..." The Ancestral Beast pursed her lips. She didn't expect this kind of answer. It was definitely... heart-warming.

"Oh, and I don't mind threesomes, as long as he doesn't stick anything into me." Witch Aiko had to add that part, just in case she had some kind of misunderstanding.

"She doesn't have anything like that." The Ancestral Beast tilted her head.

"Sis-?!" The Nightmare Owl seemed startled.

"Ah, yes, she..." Witch Aiko suddenly computed what she just heard. Her head snapped almost 180 degrees to look at the Nightmare Owl. "Wait, she?!"

That was-

"En. We can't accompany you." The Ancestral Beast said seriously.

"Whoa. I can get twins for the price of one." Witch Aiko giggled like a horny geezer.

"..." The Ancestral Beast didn't know what to say. She knew that she wouldn't be bored with Aiko around, but she didn't want to subject her benefactor to bad fate. 'Honestly, she isn't too bad looking either...'
