As for Enigma, he thought this was the best way for him to not ruin his first impression. These girls barely wore anything, they were basically 90% naked. If he looked at them, he didn't know where his eyes would focus on more.
Hence it was better he just watched the ground. 'Oh? Would you look at that, the soil looks fresh from this perspective.' He thought, trying his best to not lose any focus.
And just like that, the group walked a couple of kilometers into the forest, all the way until they reached the settlement. And within the settlement, he had it even worse.
All the ladies basically covered their chests, their waists and nothing else. Regardless of where he looked, he'd find a beauty just like that. And worst of all, his charm was definitely problematic in this place.
It would attract trouble regardless if whether he tried to stand out or not. Hence it was useless even if he forced himself to not look at them. They would attract his attention one way or another.
"Sou, you are back. How was the scouting today?" Another dark elf, or rather, nether elf walked over enthusiastically and striked up a conversation with the leader of the scouts that captured him.
Her figure was perfect, her proportions were of course abundant and her beauty was one of a kind as well. Just the act of licking her lower lip could stimulate any man out there.
Her purple hair and cheeky expression just increased her charm even more. As if she was inviting the opposite sex towards herself. Like a seductress naturally doing her job without even trying to.
"It was fine. Managed to find some prey as well." The one called Sou shrugged her shoulders and responded. Enigma blinked his eyes as he saw no prey all the way here. 'They can't be referring to me... right?'
"Hmm? Oh my, he really looks... gosh!! He's handsome..." Silico fluttered her eyes in disbelief when she saw Enigma. Sou felt the same. The more she tried to ensnare Enigma, it felt like she was the one who fell for him instead.
"I know right? Such a premium valued prey should be given to the elders to judge." Sou responded as she looked at Enigma once again. By now, a lot of young girls had sorounded him, making him feel uncomfortable.
'Ladies, I am a married man.' Enigma thought to himself as the fleeting image of Louise flashed by his mind. Honestly speaking, Louise was way better looking than these girls. Or any girl he ever saw.
"...."
"Such a handsome man."
"Are the white elves this handsome?"
"He's a moon elf. Look at his silver hair and complexion."
"Wao~"
"Are they breedable? I wonder what comes out of a nether and moon elf."
"Dont even entertain that idea."
"...."
The girls made a gallery around him and began observing him like an exotic specie. Their barely covered bodies were rubbing against each other so erotically that, any man would want to be at his position.
But Enigma thought otherwise. He hadn't met Louise that much, and he didn't know what type of a girl she was. But he was sure that indulging in this girls would be an act of betrayal to her feelings... right?
The other male nether elves looked at him in pity and shook their heads in sympathy. They knew how he felt like. This was not a place of woman supremacy, but it was still a place of women above men, both in talent and status.
Then suddenly, out of the blue, a powerful wave of oppression spread out and covered the whole village. Everyone was terrified, and were almost forced to go down on their knees.
"What are you lot doing over there lazing around for? Immediately disperse and go do your bidding. As for that... man, let him come over to have a talk with us." A beautiful and serene voice reverberated throughout the tribe at low frequency.
Everyone who heard it was immediately jolted up and then scattered throughout the tribe like frightened mice. Enigma was finally left alone, but he wasn't happy. That was because, 'A deity is in this place, no, a couple of them even.'
Meanwhile the guys looked on as the ladies ran away in fright to do their own part of the work. The system here was matriarchal, but that didn't mean that women did not work and men were slaves. It just meant that those in the upper management were mostly, or were only women.
"The elders..."
"Ah, the elders are interested him too?"
"It's to be expected, he looks like a moon elf."
ƥαṇdαηθνε| "Come to think of it... was there ever a male moon elf?"
"...."
"...."
The conversation ended there and Enigma was escorted all the way towards the central building. The building was large and unique, and looked like a big baobab tree with black leaves and a purple bark.
Sou and Silicon that escorted him bowed before the large building and awaited orders. Besides them, there were two other nether elven girls and one nether elven boy bowing as well. All with the same power levels.
"Enter." The previous voice sounded once again and the fifteen nether elves stood up respectfully and led him inside. Enigma all the while, kept quiet.
To be honest, he got lost along the way. The World Forest Region alone was the size of a small planet, divided into five hemispheres which were the size of a plane (Large Continent) each.
But even then, it would take a lesser deity less than ten days to cross one hemisphere. Let alone him, who strolled for months. With that time, he could cross the world, and possibly multiple regions, so why did he take so long?
He didn't know as well. Maybe because he had to go back and look for little En, who he presumably lost. Or sometimes he just found himself forgetting the purpose of his journey and finding himself lost.
Like now, if he wanted, he could probably break free using force and run away. But he chose not to. One, there could be a stronger deity in here. Two, he needed a map. Three, this was the first sentient specie aside from the four sisters, that he met ever since descending.
Added together, it was all the more for him to stay here for a while. It might be interesting after all. And as soon as he got the map, he was going to leave this place and look for Lulu's village.
Within the baobab-like building, Enigma looked up and saw five thrones. One on the center, and two on either side. And an exotic beauty on each throne, their different gazes directed at him.
Interest, apathy, indifference, scorn and playfulness. Different kinds of mature beautiful faces stared at him at the same time. No man would be able to easily bare with it.
The five nether elves each bowed before the thrones and lowered their heads. Sou saw that Enigma wasn't bowing or lowering his head at all. It was also the first time she saw him looking straight at someone, face to face.
But that was not important. She hurriedly grabbed his hand and wanted to drag him down as she whispered to him, "Hurry up and get down. As an elf, even if you're a rival tribe, you're to lower your head before a Deity." And warned.
"That's enough." The mature lady on the central throne finally opened her mouth, her tone was serene and mystical, enough to sing lullabies to even grown up men.
She then crossed one leg over the other and her lips curled up slightly. Her eyes playfully squinted as she opened her mouth once again, not giving Sou a chance to speak, "I'm quite baffled as to how a fine, young Deity such as yourself, found this god forsaken place."
"Ah..."
"A god?"
Sou and Silico gasped in shock as they looked at Enigma in fear. Regardless of what, they disrespected a 'god'. If the deities of the white elves were moon elves or light elves, then the deities of the dark elves were nether elves.
The five of them were half deities, while the five above were four lesser deities and one greater deity. The remaining population composed of Epics, Legends and Saints. The weakest being Great and Grand masters.
But even then, as a deity, the only equal Enigma had were the five on the thrones. And the two of them dared to command him around not long ago? Haha, were they tired of living? They thought to themselves.
"Hehe, beautiful miss, if you know about that, how about untying me first?" Enigma smiled bitterly as he sensed no goodwill from the five female deities. Even as they spoke with smiles.
"And why should I?" And she smiled as she questioned back. Purple aura slowly drifting out of her being, pressurizing the four lesser deities and the five half deities.
"...."
'Haah~ I should normalize using force beforehand, shouldn't I?' Enigma's bitter smile grew bigger as auspicious and colorful aura slowly crept out of his being.
