Rex was having the time of his life alongside his self-proclaimed lover.
After the Desert Queen agreed to the deal, a few minutes later, his system lit up with a notification to commemorate him getting his first ally.
Clearly, according to the system, his companions like Aragorn, Princess Elanor, and others were not worthy enough to be regarded as his allies, only someone of the Desert Queen\'s status was capable.
Rex still did not know the full benefits that he stood to gain by becoming this powerful Naga\'s ally, but he believed that there would be a lot of them.
After becoming allies, the Desert Queen threw a feast. Originally, she wanted the feast to last a month and Rex and his friends were required to stay throughout but Rex refused and pleaded with her to reduce the time.
In the end, she finally relented and reduced the time to 1 week.
The feast already started and the whole underground city was in a state of merry. John the sailor was still finding this situation quite unbelievable, he was still amazed by the incredible feat that was achieved by Rex.
He had never heard of the Ancient Desert Queen relenting once, now he saw this revered Naga relent to Rex not just once to become allies, but twice by reducing the timeframe of the feast that she started.
John felt like he was dreaming. "Is this real? Am I dead? Is the world coming to an end or it already ended?" His inner questions revealed how shocked he was.
Despite his surprise and shock, that did not stop him from joining in the celebration. Alongside Ambition, Storm, and Grey, a mountain of food was placed before them as they stuffed their stomachs to the brim.
As for Rex, he was seated in a VIP glass banquet table and chair alongside the Naga Queen and her group of attendants that also attended to him now.
For the Naga Queen\'s benefit, blood was the drink being distributed in this table. Through a complicated mechanism set by the Queen, Rex\'s blood was constantly sucked into a glass cup through which she sipped.
As for Rex, he enjoyed the same and replenished his blood reserves through the blood of the beautiful Naga attendants that attended to him.
Surprisingly, he got other benefits for drinking the beautiful Naga\'s bloods.
-----
[You have sucked and drank the blood of an ancient bloodline carrier]
[For drinking a rare ancient bloodline, you have received 200 free stat points!]
[You have developed a special affinity with Nagas!]
----
The more he spent time with them, the more he realized how crazily beautiful Nagas were. \'If not for the tail, man, they\'re really wife material\'.
Despite being centuries old already, the Naga Queen never acted like an old lady. She vibed and spoke like a young girl who was still in her early 20s.
She had no shame and openly flirted with Rex who didn\'t cower at her actions. Of course, her actions were arousing, but he already resigned himself to giving 100% focus to holding himself before he would do something regrettable.
When she was already drunk on his blood, Rex finally raised a conversation. "As allies, don\'t you think we should know more about ourselves?"
"I still don\'t know much about you; we barely know each other".
"Yes…, yes…, I really want to know you to the innermost parts of your body".
Rex smiled at her and gestured for them to go on a walk which she acquiesced to. As they walked, Rex started the conversation. "You know, I came from a prestigious vampire family".
"I didn\'t get to see it at its peak, but from what I know, at our peak, we were one of the strongest ancient mystic families".
"Unfortunately, though, there is always an end to everything. Our dynasty soon came to an end as we were betrayed and dethroned".
"Despite centuries having passed, our enemies still hunt my family".
"I am the last of my family and I am still being hunted".
"Funny but sorrowful, right?" Rex turned to look at the Naga Queen who reciprocated and followed his lead before starting to speak about herself.
"Your story is sorrowful I guess, but mine is much more eventful".
Drunk in his blood already, the Queen was more talkative than normal.
"Do you know what is called the Primordials?"
"No".
"The Primordials were the pure bloodline mystic beasts that led the invasion on earth. I was one of them, I am a Primordial, I was the 8th Primordial".
"We are 12 in number who came from other planets, and our mission was to take over earth and share the spoils equally".
"Well, what can we say, humans are some tenacious bastards!"
"Well, your tenacity played a minor role, the main reason behind why we did not yet overrun earth is because of the internal fighting between us".
"None of us wanted to take equal shares with the other, we wanted to receive the highest shares and was why we started fighting each other".
"I first fought with the Ironfoot Rabbit and I won after killing it".
"Alongside my Naga army, I integrated the Ironfoot Rabbit race who are now my loyal followers into my army, expanding my power, reach, and domain".
"My next target was supposed to be the Heavy-Scaled Hippopotamus but I became someone else\'s target, the 2nd primordial\'s target".
"Unexpectedly, the Ancient Basilisk already targeted me".
"As a master of ambushes, she ambushed me and severely injured me. I escaped by forsaking my mortal body and jumping into the reincarnation pool to reincarnate, I was reborn as an Advanced mystic beast".
"Once I was reborn, I took off to escape her pursuit till I arrived at the Great Desert. Due to my mystic affinity, the desert was like home to me".
"In the Great Desert, I am all powerful".
"Even with my current strength of only the pinnacle of the Super Grade, when push comes to shove, I can increase my strength through the resources of the desert to fight and even kill mythical mystic beasts".
Having been drunk by the sweet blood nectar already, the Desert Queen did not know as she continued rambling on and exposing information about herself.
By the time that she was done, Rex was wowed completely.
Without even needing to verify it, he knew that he just got a powerful ally.
For the remaining parts of the night till the next day, the celebration continued as some mystic beasts simply refused to sleep and rest.
…
The next day, the Desert Queen took Rex on a tour of her city.
The underground city was huge. Most of the structures and demarcations were made with glass, her sand that was personality heated by her.
She had mystic affinities for fire and sand, and other affinities that she had.
Another thing that Rex noticed about her was her inherent ability to read minds. The only thing that exposed her during her attempts was Rex\'s system.
-----
Warning! You are being subtly affected by a mind-reading ability…!
You are under the effects of mental fatigue!
----
Once Rex saw this notification, he would stop and take precautions.
Apart from the glass structures that were used to demarcate the underground city, Rex also learned that the solidified sand was another type of sand that was made by heating it with fire.
Not heating it to temperatures where it turns into glass, but to an acceptable temperature where the sand becomes congealed and cohesive enough.
As the days passed in the underground city, they grew closer as the Desert Queen tried more chances and opportunities to get into his heart but he fought it.
It got to an extent where she tried using other methods, this was when she finally used her hypnotic abilities on him but he resisted it.
-----
Warning! You have been hit by an ability: Hypnosis!
----
Rex may be cooperating with all her flirtatious and naughty actions now, but this was all in order for him to hold tight onto and leach this powerful existence.
He still loved his heart; he had no intentions of falling for a snake yet. Perhaps, if the Queen knew what he was thinking, she would kill him on the spot but Rex was extremely vigilant when he talked about her.
With the Naga Queen on his side, a large part of the world was on his side.
Till the 1 week elapsed, Rex, his transformed beasts, and John the sailor thoroughly enjoyed themselves in this underground city.
Finally, it was time to go home to the Gundam Shelter.
