[Nightmare]
Chapter 90 [I’ll Show You Mine…]

"Oh~Hellie~" Charlotte chimed.

Helix had just woken up from getting knocked out.

Tilo studied the magic circles on his hands to get the answers he was looking for.

So he returned to his new temporary residence on the other end of town to recover.

"Hmmm?" Helix replied with a groggy voice.

"You~won~" She sang.

Marie and Riley giggled.

He realized that they had cuddled up against them in their underwear.

It was just more comfortable for them.

They weren't trying to tease him.

Maybe.

"I won?" Helix asked while trying to think back.

"You won." Marie giggled.

"The reason that Tilo discovered your body was because you hit him in the face."

The women started giggling.

"Once you hit him, he didn't have to find you.

That's how he knocked you out." Riley explained with a gentle smile.

"Haaaaaah." Helix chuckled bitterly.

"I'm glad. That fight was brutal."

"You're saying that? We were all sick!" Charlotte cried.

The women giggled again.

"I'm sorry about that." He replied with a gentle smile.

"Any~way. We told you we wouldn't share our stats temporarily." Charlotte began.

"We wanted to show you our progress.

However~"

"Now we want to see yours!" Marie laughed.

The women started giggling again.

"Hah. I see…" He chuckled.

"Soooooooo, we'll show you~ours if you show us~yours." Charlotte chimed coquettishly.

"Of course." He laughed.

"Well, I'll share first. So I'll touch you." Charlotte announced.

She ran her hand across his thigh.

"I… feel like this could get very messy, and we'll get sidetracked with the sharing." Helix laughed.

"But if you want to do that to me afterward, I won't complain."

Marie and Riley started giggling.

"Okay… Here you go…." Charlotte pouted.

"This Nightmare… is seriously devastating." Helix sighed.

"I'm jealous. However, you're my girlfriend, and I love this for you."

Charlotte's face heated up partially.

"Well, take out your jealousy lay~ter." She chimed.

"I~will." Helix sang playfully.

Marie puffed out her cheeks and jumped onto Helix's chest.

"Me next!" She requested playfully.

"Hah. I can't wait.

—

"Wow…. This Nightmare…." Helix began in a daze.

The women studied his facial expressions hoping they could discern his thoughts.

"Can make music." Helix burst into laughter.

"Of course—wait, what!?" Marie cried.

"It creates vibrations. It can shake someone's fibula like a guitar string! Hahaha." Helix cried while wiping slight tears from his eyes.

The women looked at him with shocked expressions.

"I'm joking about using bones like instruments." He chuckled.

"However, you can recreate a human voice with this by copying sound wave oscillations from someone's voice and bending the sounds in the area to recreate it."

Everyone was stunned-silent.

"I'll look this up with you later." He offered.

"I will do the same with everyone individually.

And… we can cuddle if you want." Helix added with an embarrassed expression.

"It's a date!" Marie cried.

"Me first!" Charlotte exclaimed.

"I'll just be happy to do it." Riley replied with a sweet voice.

Every day, he fell in love with Riley more for her genuine, easy-to-please personality.

She wasn't self-conscious.

Riley was just… happy.

It was shocking to the persistently melancholy young man.

He envied that trait and was grateful to have her around.

"Okay, Riley. Can I see yours?" He asked.

She nodded and snuggled up against his shoulder.

"Haaaaaah. I feel like I'm walking around with natural disasters." Helix laughed.

All of the women started giggling.

"Speak for yourself. You brought a kingdom down one day after being Level 1." Charlotte quipped.

Helix gave her a wry smile, and then they all started laughing again.

"Well, I suppose it's my turn, yeah?" He chuckled.

"Snuggle close. You've already seen my Nightmare, so I'll just show you my stats." Helix announced.

All of the women obeyed with pleasure.

They snuggled against him to the maximum extent possible.

[Name: Helix Hellsgate Margrave]

[Age: 18]

[Level: 44]

[Defense: 300]

[Strength: 650]

[Stamina: 800]

[Agility: 1,500]

[SP: 10,000]

"W-Wait… What!?" Charlotte cried.

The other women erupted into a panic.

"Y-Your stats…." Marie exclaimed.

"They're… broken… in… not a very good way."

"Yeah. Aside from SP, my stats are probably half of what yours will be at level 47.

Especially defense." Helix chuckled bitterly.

"Why!? Is this a punishment for not playing that witch's game?" Marie cried indignantly.

"Oh… I get it…." Charlotte commented with a wry smile.

Marie and Riley turned to her.

"What is it, Charlotte?" Riley asked.

"This Nightmare is designed to eventually create an army, yeah?" Charlotte asked.

"If that's the case, it's telling Helix that he needs to be a leader and use his mind instead of being a meathead that fights through life easily."

"Exactly." Helix chuckled.

"However, my agility is on par with Riley on the plus side.

That is the most important aspect to me.

Also, with defense treasures, I can improve my defense exorbitantly anyway."

The women nodded in agreement.

"Plus, now that you've been able to train it, your Nightmare is basically designed for you." Marie remarked.

"Hmmm?" Helix asked.

"Even if I got that Nightmare and trained it, it would be practically useless." Marie explained.

"I second that." Charlotte affirmed.

"Me third." Riley chimed in.

"I think everyone agrees that we'd never consider creating clones that alter only a centimeter of motion to make people sick." Marie continued.

"That's a concept that's shockingly lethal and no one can explain why."

All of the women nodded in agreement.

"Thank you. It… is meant for me.

Now that I've had the fortune of training it with Tilo and Tyrene, it's extremely powerful.

I'd love it if [Nightmare] only created illusions and that giggle-witch weren't hunting me down." He confessed with a wry smile.

Anyway, that's that." He chuckled.

"Now… does anyone want to demonstrate their stamina stat?"

The room devolved into chaos not a minute later.

—

[A/N: Finally, the reveal chapter I'm sure many wanted. Remember that Marie, Charlotte, and Riley had two months' head start and the travel month and were the strongest Earthians in Alzeria.

Moreover, Helix isn't overpowered due to stats. He toasted a Markov at Marie's level because of his intelligence, not raw power.]
