"Look! Young Master Clark and Lady Lin Che are fighting again!"
"Has wrinkles covered your olden eyes as well, Old Goat?"
"How can you call something like that as fighting? HAHAHA!"
"A lovely cat chasing a quick mouse would be the better term to this whole affair."
Countless Immortals talked amongst themselves and it could be seen that they were quite privy to the details of our bored gamer and the Primal Warden.
It did not need saying that they were indeed busy in prying what they could, especially when it came to these ominous personalities who just seemed to sprout from nowhere.
Since they were subtle in their means, these aged existences were also rewarded in what they sought. At least they knew the names of the most powerful figures in this part of creation.
These True Immortals continued to watch the events unfold in real time and some were even so bold enough to put a wager on who was going to rise up as the winner in this conflict.
"I bet one million high grade spirit stones on Lady Lin Che! Who dares face my gamble?!" One True Immortal started it all.
"HAH! I accept! Don't you dare go back on your words, Fellow Daoist!" Another answered. And from then on, a landslide of voices followed in full.
"Five million high grade spirit stones for..."
.
..
...
"These fucking old souls even dare to make fun of my plight! This is just sad. Very very sad indeed." Away from the ruckus, our bored gamer could only utter in lament.
He was doing the best he could in order to avoid the raging bull of a lady behind him and yet some people have made a sport of his misfortune.
"SIGH! I should not think of any thoughts of revenge. I know with absolute certainty that if the situation were reversed, I would have probably done the same exact thing also."
Clark smiled for a few breaths before a sword slash erased any signs of it thereafter. He dodged it easily and then the next one and the following attacks later on.
But with each fatal strike, our avid gamer noticed one very alarming thing.
'This is bad. I don't think i can evade getting hit any longer. I did not even have to kill her once and yet her momentum keeps ever increasing with every passing moment.
Lin Che is truly a very bad ass girl!' Our bored gamer shook his head at how terribly broken this NPC character really was.
If Primal Wardens were all like this, then no one in this universe could face them and live.
'How long before I take a hit, Nancy?' Clark asked his system and knew that Nancy also shared his thoughts at this moment.
No one could have known him better than his system cheat after all.
"You only have approximately 10 minutes of time, host.
The Primal Warden named Lin Che would continue to gain in power and speed and you will most probably get overtaken in that same amount of time also. Don't lose hope.
There's still a chance, host. You just need to find it." Nancy encouraged and did what she was supposed to do.
And indeed, our bored gamer appreciated this final act of kindness from his able helper in this alien world.
Though she was created by that fucking Elder God's will but Clark did not believe that Nancy was fake and had no real feelings of her own.
To this point, our bored gamer could only give his sincerest gratitude to Nancy. The best system cheat he has ever known to exist.
"Thank you, Nancy." Clark uttered these three words and took a deep breath to try and focus his attention on the matter at hand.
'I can't attack in fear that I might accidentally kill her and hasten my death in consequence and I also cannot run away and escape forever.
In fact, I have only less than 10 minutes left of spare time to think of a way around this. What should i do?"
Our good gamer asked himself and used more than five minutes in the silence of his thoughts.
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
In the distant parts of the universe, his agile form could be seen blinking in and out of reality in order to dodge the endless rain of sword lights that wanted to take his life in the aftermath.
"That's it! Maybe this would work or maybe not but since i really have no other choice in the matter, there's no point in hesitating anymore!"
Clark exclaimed and could only pray that this guess was true at this time. If this one failed him yet again then he might as well just lie down and wait for True Death to claim him.
"Here goes my last dance. And to think that i would have a beautiful lady to share it with. Ahhh... I wish i would have done something more epic in this life."
Our bored gamer whispered to himself as he stopped to face his demons. Lin Che was of course the first one to notice this curious plot.
She mirrored the actions of Clark and both looked at each other in silence.
"Are you finally done running, Foul Creature?" The Primal Warden asked after seven breaths.
"I am. Come take my life." Clark replied. Gone was the happy face and what replaced it was a countenance filled with all the seriousness he could muster.
The gravity of his situation dawned upon him. This was it. The end of the road for our very own protagonist.
"I shall gladly oblige. Fare thee well, Foul Creature. Remember to be a good man in your next life." Lin Che left one piece of advice before she acted as the able executioner that she was.
She raised the golden sword at her right hand and let fly another sword light that tore the very essence of time and space.
Our bored gamer dodged the first strike with ease but knew that there was still more to come. Still, he remained nearby and did not run away like last time.
Clark stood his ground and faced the onslaught of deadly attacks with an admirable heart. No one could say that our avid gamer was a coward at this time.
"Useless." Lin Che shook her head and was about to wave her sword anew. Alas, it was at this time that something felt horribly wrong in her body.
There was an unbearable itch down south. The Primal Warden tried to ignore it at first and tried not to think about it.
Unfortunately, even this little mind trick could not invalidate what was real right now.
"BANG!"
"BANG!" The golden shield and sword was dropped one after another.
"What have you done to me?!" Lin Che roared but the itch just kept on gaining force. It festered at the center of her body and it did not take long for it to lurk deeper into her.
"Foul! Creature! Answer! Me!" She added and tried killing this unnatural phenomena by keeping her legs tightly together.
There must have been some rubbing motions involved but she hid it as well as she could.
In the end, she could not help but curl in a fetal position and pressed her hands upon the infected part.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" Lin Che had tears in her eyes as she could not take the cruel punishment any longer. She had to find the cure for the itch. And she had to find it fast!
"Well, well, well. It seems like that situation has been reversed. Now what should i do about you?" Our bored gamer cheekily said and he was quite happy with himself.
If he had known that it would be this easy to dominate a Primal Warden then he would have done this the first chance that he got before.
'Hmmm... My assumption was correct. Hehehe.
Although I could use the power of cultivators and the Grand Dao to do whatever I wanted but this much was nothing in front of Primal Wardens like Lin Che.
It appears that they have a natural immunity for such things. But it's different when I use the abilities that my system cheat has given me. It could only be because of the origin of Nancy.
Since Nancy was made out of that fucking Elder God's Soul Fragment, i think that her power is way above and beyond that of the Grand Dao inside this fabric of reality.
At least the Grand Dao of this Mortal Realm. I don't know if the same is true in the Divine Realm though." Clark contemplated.
He had wielded the Dao of Curses to implicate the same result during the first sword attack of Lin Che. Sadly, she did not even feel anything at all.
But when he tried using the spell Curse: Itch from his bag of tricks in his Necromancer Class, the outcome was a whole nother matter entirely.
'Should i use Curse: Bewitch and permanently subdue this unstoppable tigress or should i employ a different approach?'
Clark rubbed his smooth chin as he tried to do what was right and proper. Lin Che was also a victim in this convoluted scheme after all.
The real culprit behind this misunderstanding was that fucking Elder God over their heads who had willfully twisted the facts and even the mind of this poor Primal Warden.
Our bored gamer paused for a full 2 minutes before he came upon a decision on how to proceed onward.
He looked at Lin Che in pity as she was madly scratching the itch from within. Alas, it was a futile exercise in the making.
"I understand that you were also used by that fucking Elder God. I can forgive you for that. But just like everything else in this world, there must be a price to pay for what you did."
Our bored gamer said to the Primal Warden.
'Nancy... i want to pick a particular class. Find me something that could...' Clark instructed and it was curious to see that there was an excited look on his face as he did so.

In myriad parts of the cosmos, countless hearts were breaking because of the money that they lost.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
"My high grade spirit stones!"
