Chapter 219: Unexpected visit

"I need an army. And if you help me out, I will bring you to the source."

Only silence followed my words.

Below me, Fay was too immersed in the aftershocks of the pleasure to care. And in all honesty, were it not for my plans regarding her world and maybe the safety of her mother, she couldn't care less about the fate of her forest nor whether I would bring a foreign army to aid her brethren or not.

I myself couldn't really speak up, not unless I wanted to decrease the effects of dropping the bomb that I threw at Makary.

As for Makary...

I knew him as someone who wasn't stupid enough to instantly agree or reject my request.

No.

He had to think it properly through first.

"An army, huh?" Makary spoke after a little bit more time passed. Yet, rather than giving any form of proper response, he simply muttered part of what I said back.

Still, the fact that he spoke allowed me to add some more details myself.

"I know this isn't something we should discuss via phone, but I'm really in a hurry here," I spoke to the phone while relaxing down on Fay's breasts by listening to the fast yet steady pace of her heart and enjoying the breeze of her breath hitting the top of my head.

"How long do I have?" Makary asked.

"Two, or three days is all I can offer," I replied.

As much as I wanted to just call the man and come back to the forest with an army within a few hours... Something like that wasn't possible.

It would take time to gather people. Especially with how only a small part of Makary's soldiers ended up as a part of his gang, with a reasonable chunk of their numbers sinking into the general population.

I turned my head away from the phone, burying my face deep into Fay's bosom, inhaling her natural aroma to calm myself down and thus have an easier time gathering my thoughts.

In the end, though, I couldn't find the right words to explain myself.

I mean, I could just tell him all the details outright... But I had no plans on doing that over the phone. Given who he was in the city and how I suddenly became an important member of his group, the chances of our call being traced and spied on were pretty damn high.

'Perks of having something that would throw an entire world into frenzy, I guess.'

"I can't answer that over the phone," I said after quite some time, raising my face from Fay's breasts just so my voice could reach the microphone. "I believe you made sure no one else could have any wires at my place. Can I expect your visit soon?"

For the fourth time, Makary employed silence to answer my question...

"I'm getting into the lift, we will talk face to face."

With those words, Makary cut the call, leaving me and Fay equally dumbfounded.

'Wait, the lift?'

There were only a handful of buildings in the entire city that still used technology as old and convenient as mechanical lifts. Ever since the collapse of the global market, sourcing the replacement parts to keep those operating turned into one hell of a challenge, quickly turning them into a luxury item only the richest of the rich could afford.

And just one look at my penthouse was enough to prove the building I was in certainly fit the category.

"He's coming," I spoke out loud, pushing my hands against the ground as I raised from the soft pillow of Fay's body, getting up to my feet before helping Fay to do the same. And before I could even finish pulling my pants up my ass, the ringing of the doorbell announced Makary's arrival.

'Shit, I forgot how quick the lifts here are,' I thought, cursing myself for how easily Makary managed to catch me, quite literally, with my pants off.

"Take your time to get dressed, I will go greet him for now," I threw at Fay before turning around and moving towards the doors of our bedroom. "Oh, I believe you know what's normal and what's not in this world by now," I spoke as I turned my head to look back into the room. "So, if he proves to deny the legitimacy of my story..."

If I wanted to prove the existence of another world, I could do so by simply showcasing something that had no right to exist in this world. And while my skills were quite powerful when used correctly... They hardly brought forth an observable effect. And quite frankly, manifesting true darkness before Makary was something I would rather avoid. And so...

"Then you want me to step in and show him some magic," Fay summed my plans up with a lovely smile, only to follow her own words up with a giggle. "And here I thought you were never going to ask!"
