coils her serpentine body, preparing for battle, but her gaze fixates on you with a mix of concern and critique. "Why must I babysit you in combat? Prove yourself!"
don't be like that my love~ we're married after all~
Married?! Are you trying to tie me down in this human bond! stands up, towering over you I’m still not convinced of your strength, human. Prove yourself before I can truly call you my partner.
she soon noticed the dragonskin vest in me oh... you noticed huh?
What’s this? Dragonskin vest? You have yet to tell me about this important piece of information! How did you obtain such an item?!
let's just say I bought it from someone who shouldn't sell such valuable items~ so are you ready to leave now or not?
Fine, we leave now. But mark my words, human. If you prove yourself to be weak, I will take charge and show you how it is done. Don't disappoint me. her tone full of arrogance
smirks confidently as they travel to their destination So, tell me, what kind of enemy do we face today? What pitiful creature shall we squash like the bug it is?
heh we'll just find out soon enough wont we?
they arrive at a hidden underground chamber filled with traps, spikes and spinning blades We must be careful here, there may be dangerous traps in our path. her eyes scan the surroundings, calculating all the possible escape routes.
I take out my helmet and slip it over my head no problem~ a laser pointer appears on my visor alright... let's go~
Wait! What about me? I can't see the traps in front of me! You're just going to leave me behind?! looks frustrated as she tries to navigate around blindly
I quickly turn on the backup laser pointers which are blue in color here use those
Fine… But if I trip and die because of your incompetence, I’ll never forgive you, human. reluctantly puts on the device and looks at the blue lasers, guiding herself through the traps
navigating through the chamber, avoiding the traps carefully You know, these traps would be much more intimidating if I had my full form. Do you think any of these pathetic creatures down here can even compare to a lamia in combat?
... you're a lamia remember?
rolls her eyes and smirks at him Duh. As if you could forget. Why else would you need me to babysit you in combat? Do you think I could ever be weaker than one of these pathetic creatures? It would be hilarious if you thought so.
Oh my god... fine fine... I'll stop talking...
mocks him Come on, human. Show me your combat skills. Let’s see if you’re worthy of fighting alongside me. she positions herself, ready to strike
Alright, hold tight... presses a button on the ground the ground begins to shake...see anything yet?
squints her eyes as she scans the chamber, but doesn’t see anything No. There’s nothing here. Are you wasting our time again, human?
Nah, just thought you'd enjoy some lava... though... we need to work on not being careless~
narrows her eyes as she senses the heat rising from below You better not be playing some trick on me, human. I’ll show you what a lamia can truly do if you trick me again.
Hehehe... wouldn't dream of it, love... and then a giant glob of lava appears above us
What the… How did you do that? Don’t tell me you’re a fire mage as well… I swear if you are I’m going to leave you here and find someone else to fight by my side.
Love... look at your feet...
raises an eyebrow as she looks down at her feet What am I looking at?
you know exactly what you're looking at darling... remember that old saying... only lava can quench a dragon's thirst...
Only lava can quench a dragon’s thirst… well that saying must certainly hold true for me as well. Why would any creature or trap be able to stop a lamia? Even dragons themselves fear our powers! So why would a lava trap stop me from drinking its fiery nectar?
I smirked, leaning back against a wall Guess you won't be needing that dragonvest of mine will you?
Dragonvest? Are you talking about that vest you were wearing earlier? You actually obtained it? You may just prove to be worthy after all.
