Chapter Twenty-Four:
Yuri’s Wrath

************************************

To summarize Nolan started trouble. With Nicole and messed up my morning. I'd only just forgotten about it when he dared show his face to me. The nerve of him! I couldn't let this slide. I figured I'd beat Him up real good in hopes he'd avoid me from now on…

Unfortunately, I'd Forgotten a cruel fact…

After returning to the castle, Nicole was dragged away for an unclear reason. Moments after I was alone I found myself floating above the clouds in the sky.

Yuri's voice boomed in my head, “What do you think you're doing? I told you to befriend Him and guide Him not kill him!”

I groaned, “But it would be easier to just kill him and do it myself.”

Now standing in front of me she yelled in my face “That's not possible you're as clueless as him… if only I could contact him more directly” she said biting her thumb

Yuri looks like an elf? No, her eyes are that of a lizard… perhaps a Draconic type race? Her eyes are a golden color with a slight glow. Her skin is as white as paper with black hair. So dark it seems to suck in the light around it.

I gasped, “You're almost as cute as me!”

Yuri looked as if she might throw up. “Don't compare my godly appearance to yourself. Your form might have been crafted by these godly hands, but you're nowhere near my level of Beauty.” she scoffed.

I pouted, “I am too cuter”

Yuri groaned, “You impudent little brat what happened to the level-headed child I selected… Wait, no, I guess you were always this stubborn and bold… ”

After a moment she grinned, “Fine you wanna be the cutest? Let's see how long you can handle living with some of my godly aura.”

I spoke now frightened, “I'm confused… you can't change my face, I won't forgive you!”

She laughed like a mad woman, “oh no need for something so dramatic” she pinched my cheek.

In a soft voice, she said, “Since you desire to be the cutest. I'll give you this blessing as a gift. No mortal has ever appreciated it properly though...”

A warmth washed throughout my body. I became aware that I smelled… good? And my soft skin was noticeably softer… I didn't think my body could be improved so much. Though I can't decide what I smell like. I realized it's changing as I think of a better smell.

I began to sniff my hair trying to decide what the smell was… Mint… now it is something more tropical… hmm

Yuri sighed, “Aww that's such a precious reaction. Oh, My, my, you've blossomed flawlessly in your new life haven't you?” while she gently patted my head. After a moment it became awkward. She seemed to realize she was angry a moment before…

Regaining her composure with a sickening grin. she followed by saying “Now when you decide you want me to take back my blessing. My conditions are simple: Make Nolan fall deeply in love with you… then build your own harem of 5 or so love interests... I'm not picky so long as Nolan is one of them. I am the goddess of life. love is second nature to me… I'm sure if you're cuter it's the same for you.”

Wh- what wait I didn't agree to this! I screamed. But it was too late and I was once again in my room. “I'd rather die,” I thought to myself. Committing her words to memory. While hoping that I can find a loophole to dispel her curse, uh I mean blessing
