Chapter 146: Temptation
Though he was far from the level of being able to completely obliterate a 200m long, 140m wide superdense meteor using raw physical strength or something like a ki blast, Vahn had other means to honor his contract with Fubuki. He could only teleport her to the Crimson Palace due to her status as an Ascendee, but when it came to inorganic objects...
Seeing the meteor threatening City Z abruptly vanish on the holographic display Vahn had materialized to let her see what was transpiring back in her world, Fubuki, standing with arms crossed, blinked in surprise, asking, "That's it? I accrued a debt of one billion Tower Points for you to take less than ten seconds to resolve things?"
Shrugging, Vahn reasoned, "We could have destroyed it the old-fashioned way, but the risk of fiery shrapnel or debris raining down on the city is too high. Teleporting it elsewhere was the simplest solution."
"I suppose..." conceded Fubuki, exhaling from her nose. She would have preferred if Vahn or someone else intervened in a more direct manner so she could claim them as her allies, but she couldn't deny his solution was timely and efficient.
"Ahem..." coughed Venelana, drawing Vahn's and Fubuki's gazes as she met the latter's gaze and added, "Since we have fulfilled our end of the agreement, please remember to wear you're uniform while you're here..."
"Haaa...very well..." responded Fubuki, a faint blush tinting her cheeks as she opened her Inventory and equipped the outfit that had been provided to her, consisting of scant black panties, a black bustier that highlighted her cleavage and left much of her back and flat abdomen exposed, white cuffs and a choker with green buttons, black fishnet stockings, and black heels.
"Nice..." said Vahn, causing the blush on Fubuki's face to deepen before she snorted haughtily, turned her face, closed her eyes, and proclaimed, "Go ahead and look all you want, but unless I permit it, don't even think of touching me..."
"Obviously," responded Vahn, causing Fubuki to feel slightly annoyed as he quickly added, "Then, unless there's something else, I will return you to your world. If you need to return here in the future, you can use the key in your Inventory on any door with a keyhole or lock."
"You had me change, and now you're asking me to leave...?" asked Fubuki, meeting Vahn's gaze with an irritated look as she asserted, "I want to look around a bit before I go. Or does my presence here bother you?"
"Of course not," responded Vahn, waving his hand dismissively in front of his blank face as he added, "You're free to come and go from here as you please. Just remember that if you bring a guest, they can't access most of the facilities without you."
"Then I will excuse myself..." said Fubuki, sporting a proud, standoffish expression as she turned to depart without any particular destination in mind. Vahn allowed himself to check out her round and firm-looking butt as she departed, but as he wasn't particularly fond of Fubuki's personality and the choker and cuffs she was wearing signified that she wasn't open to accompanying him, he soon turned his attention to Venelana, mirroring the suggestive smile she was wearing with his own...
