Chapter 1251: Chapter 1250: Revelation

    ?

    "Where do you think it manages to help achieve? I have to admit I am curious as to what you think of this niche power..."

    My eyes continued to alternate between icy and hot while my brain decided it wanted to wiggle around like an actual noodle as the effects of this ''niche power'' she just taught to me showed their aftereffects.

    "Uh... Gods this hurts... I guess maybe it lets you see... someone''s power level or something..? Help see if they have enchanted items on them or how tattooed they might be?"@@@@

    Rubbing my temples, I groaned again before sending a gentle wave of cool air across my face as I tried to get rid of my pain as best I could, and as I was soothing myself Lilith said "Technically you aren''t wrong, Katherine, but there was something else I was going to say... though perhaps you''ve never come across one yourself..? They are rather rare..."

    She had reached over and was stroking my ears to comfort me, the Demoness bringing out her motherly side as she idly stood beside me, staring out into the infested forest while various thoughts fluttered around inside her head.

    "Have you ever come across a Gate, Katherine? Those... portals that lead directly into the Labyrinthian?"

    "That''s..."

    It was a lot of information that was dumped on me, all in a somewhat jumbled yet understandable mess as the Demoness took one last look at the forest before turning away and walking down the hill, leaving me with that as I wondered if it had anything to do with her reason for bringing us here.

    She seemed adamant that the Labyrinthian was a puzzle and not random; that meant set pieces that got shuffled around to new places instead of new biomes sprouting up whenever they felt like it, and that meant that there was definitely something at work here that wasn''t what it seemed.

    On top of that, there was a clear use of this skill that she bestowed upon me, something that she wanted me to do going forwards with it that the others couldn''t manage... though Leone had just as much control as I did, so why me..?

    Nothing that this Demoness did ever made sense, and the more information she gave the less I understood about everything, though I suppose that was par for the course considering more knowledge only ever meant more questions...

    "Fascinating stuff, hm? I might not be the brightest in the world, Kitty~ Kat~, but I definitely~ can tell you that this Demoness is holding back a whole lot of even more fascinating things from you. But hey, she surely has a purpose behind it, no~?"

    Cali appeared beside me and gave me a peck on the cheek, and after a moment of floating she leaned closer and whispered "But let''s ignore that for now, hm-? How are you going to deal with this arousal that''s bubbling within you~? And how are you going to fulfill our deal, my sexy~ puppy~?"

    Her hand landed on my waist as she asked that, and my breath hitched as I kept my eyes on the forest, the warmth spilling out of her palm turning me on so much as I was forced to acknowledge the thing that was making me so worried about our time here; I was horny, and I had a very large bane to my plentiful boons alongside a contract I needed to fulfill...
