So.. running around with a strange demon guy named Sever, in a place that could totally be a dark alleyway.. and stuff.. I know I know.. you think I'm an idiot right?
But come on, in my defense, I do happen to wield a giant death axe capable of cleaving a house in half.
Anyways, there was actually nothing wrong with Sever. Nevermind he seemed to be one of those cliche badboys who tried to pick up girls with rogueish charms and good looks. Trust me, I don't fall for that stuff. Being a guy before I was a girl, men have different criteria for who they are attracted to.
From what I understand, girls like to feel protected.. big strong guys who wrap their arms around them and make them feel safe. Above all else.. protective trust is what a girl likes, or so that's what my sister told me back when our relationship wasn't too iffy..
But we guys.. well being protected by big strong girls? Um.. seems weird. I mean some guys can get into it.. I could maybe back when I was a guy, I did like strong female characters in games.. but I didn't want to be that guy who was a withering tulip either who melted into my romantic interest's arms.
Some guys like the cute girls who are cheery and rely on us and make us feel manly. Some guys like the independent girls who are tough and maybe can be.. what is the Japanese term... oh right.. Tsundere.. which pretty much in my book, means tough and cute at the same time if you put it in tamer terms.
What did I like when I was a guy? Fact is I don't know. I was attracted to all types of girls without really choosing one as my preference. I believe choosing a preference turns you biased and can make you miss out on whoever your true love turns out to be in the world.. I know I know... it sound like I'm an unrealistic romantic right? Well sue me, I don't care.
As a girl I'm no different. I won't lie.. Medi seems cool. And I do acknowledge the fact that now my plans for dating would have to change with this new permanent gender swap. But considering my past... cliche macho man things are just not going to do it for me..
"You can stop that now." I said as me and Sever walked into a dark alleyway near the corner of the north edge of the city.
"Stop what?" said Sever.
"Flexing your arms in such a way so that you can casually show off your muscles." said Melia. "We're not stupid you know.. we're know you're trying to flirt."
"Even the Kaiju notices.." muttered Sever, rubbing the back of his head sheepishly "Jeez.. I've never met a weapon with an attitude like yours."
Heehee... I'm more than just cute you know!" said Melia. "I'm constantly looking out for Master's well being.. and that includes watching out for overambitious men trying to get into her pants!"
"Can we please not talk about men getting into my pants?" I muttered. "Let's focus on the goal here... so what is this place?"
"It's like a secret village for our kind." said Sever. "Where Demons can go about life business and stuff without having to deal with the racist end of the population. People know how it exists.. but only demons know where to find it.."
"How come? With such a large demonic population, somebody's bound to notice it." I said.
"Well you have to have these see?" said Sever with a grin, pointing to his eyes with a thumb. "It's what makes demons unique above all else. While yeah, we've got other traits, such as long lives, and enhanced strength, that would just make us like elves overall.. "
"Other than the fact we get stronger in complete darkness." I said.
"Well that's the thing, it's only cause of our eyes that we're strong.. it's where all our immense mana charges into.. and then spreads out from." said Sever. "One way to rob a demon of it's power is to destroy their eyes... and there are certain magic potions that call for our eyes.. heck gouging out demon eyes is a Black Market trade. "
