Chapter 127 - Deepening Our Connection, And Doing It

nAs the head disappeared into the forest, I turned around as I started to head back to the village. I think that I was almost ready to fight a Demon Lord, and Neft would be a good tester before I danced with Dao.

nStill, I needed to go and find Lani, there were other spots on the map, and Neft said he wouldn't be back till tomorrow. While he could be lying, I didn't think so, which meant that whatever was coming today would still come.

nI changed to my Wind Force Pact and Water Sphinx Totem and shrunk down as I ran but picked up speed fast. After getting out of the forest, I went for a jog around the village until I spotted Kali and whistled to her.

nThat got her attention, and I went to meet up with her. We were on the beachside of the village, and Kali confirmed that there were no other behemoths.

n

"Did you see Lani, the little old light blue lady running around?

" I asked after Kali reported to me, and she nodded her head yes.

n

"Yes, I talked to her and told her that the problem was dealt with, and she said to tell you she would be back at her house. Who is she?

" Kali asked, and I looked at her curiously.

n

"You don't know? Can't you see the things around me while you are inside of me?

" I asked.

nI had assumed that she was able to see the same as me, but I guess that wasn't the case.

n

"No, I can see if you are close to a Hissing Lily, but then only if Madam Clesh is looking there,

" Kali explained, and that made me feel horrible.

n

"Listen, Kali, I am really sorry. I thought that you could see out while you were inside of me. I will make sure that you get more time to come out and see people, or I can just keep you out permanently if you want,

" I said to Kali, but she shook her head.

n

"No, you need me with you, and it isn't that bad. I will enjoy getting to meet the girls and finally hug Madam Clesh!

" Kali said with girlish excitement as she hugged herself, and I patted her head and stroked her hair.

nKali was different from the other girls, and I felt like she was more of a sister. I really hoped that she didn't feel differently, but I think this girl would be better as my friend, rather than a lover.

nPlus, I didn't have siblings, so having a little sister might be fun and a good break from the other women.

n

"Good, maybe we can find a way to make it easier for you to talk to me. Then you can chat with me if you are lonely,

" I said, and Kali looked up at me with a warm smile and big eyes.

n

"Really? You don't mind? You just have to deepen the connection between us! Then we can talk whenever you want!

" Kali said with excitement, but red flags started to go up in my mind.

nThe term deepening the connection didn't sound sexual coming from her mouth. It was that my mind was having a hard time getting out of the gutter with how all the other girls talked and acted.

n

"What do you mean by deepening the connection?

" I asked hesitantly, and the reply set my nerve even more on edge.

n

"Well, we can't do it out in public! We need somewhere private to go, so maybe it would be better to do it when were are alone. I think it would be better if other people aren't watching, hee hee!

" Kali said in a shy voice that made my eyes big as I sucked in a deep breath I didn't need.

n

"What do you mean by

"do

" it?

" I asked, trying to keep my tone level, but I was struggling.

n

"Huh? Oh! Well, there are a bunch of people around, and umm….

" Kali said and then blushed and looked away.

nThe hammer pound in my chest, but I was not going to change my morals on this! Kali was my cute little sister! There had to be another way!

n

"Listen, Kali,

" I started to say, but the sound of my name being called made me stop and look around.

nI spotted Lani waving at me, and then I remembered the other time stamps on the map and slapped my forehead. This little thing would have to wait, but I was going to convince her that there had to be another way!

n

"Come, we can talk about this later, or when we are alone, like you said,

" I said to Kali, and she let out a relieved-sounding sigh.

nI think Kali thought I would make her say it out loud, but I wouldn't do that to her. What I would do was find another way to deepen our connection without burying myself deep inside of her.

nI turned back to Lani and then reached my hand out to the side to offer it to Kali to hold. I didn't really think much of it, but Kali gasped, and I looked down at her with a raised eyebrow, and now she was blushing furiously.

n

"W-What?! Y-You, w-want to d-do it with me n-now?!

" Kali asked in a cute and stuttering voice, and a mountain slid off my back.

nI smiled down at her and then took her small green hand that was shaking like a leaf into my own. Then, without a word, I turned and started to walk to where Lani was waiting.

nKali followed along, and soon I felt her hand grip my own more firmly.

nThis was good, and I felt a million times better because my misconception was now gone.

nIf this is what it took to deepen my bond with Kali, I will do it whenever she wanted! All that is well ends well, but now it was time to deal with the next problem on today's Asses To Kick List.
