Chapter 55 - Maximo
Now that it had rested enough, the carabao stood up and kept on nudging its head towards Nile.
Now that it stood up, Nile realized that its height had almost reached Nile\'s shoulders. It was definitely a little \'massive\'.
Because of the reformation from before, his height had already reached above 6 foot.. With that, you can imagine just how tall this carabao is.
As the carabao still keeps on nudging itself on Nile, he himself also keeps on patting the carabao\'s head.
Of course, he did not keep on patting the carabao\'s head for half an hour; he took a break and only resumed when the carabao stood up and approached him.
"Okay, from now on, you will be called Maximo, and my name is Nile, understand?" Nile said while patting the carabao\'s head.
The carabao looked at Nile perplexed, it did not understand any words Nile uttered, but it did understand what Nile meant. The carabao soon nodded its head for confirmation.
"Maximo it is." Nile is quite happy with the name, although the name Maximo is only generated randomly by Nile on the spot and doesn\'t have any meaning. He still likes it as it seems cool.
\'Hmm, what if we put a metal piercing on its nose?\' Nile thought. For Nile who \'sometimes\' wants to act cool, having a cool mount or pet should be a given. If he doesn\'t have a cool pet or mount, then just decorate one to make it look cool.
Maximo saw the gaze shivered. It even stops nudging on Nile, as it prefers to make a retreat if ever something bad happens.
Seeing Maximo like that, Nile postponed the idea.
He then said, "Let\'s go, we still have a long way to go. Come on, let me hop on your back!" Nile pointed at Maximo\'s back at the latter part of the sentence.
Maximo understood it and complied. It lowered its body, letting Nile hop on its back.
Maximo did not mind it. The almighty god is using him as a mount. That alone is worth it.
"Go!" Nile said after he positioned himself on Maximo\'s back.
Maximo\'s back is broad enough for Nile to sit.
Maximo started to jog. And Nile on the back is having a little trouble.
He did not have anything to hold onto, his groin even suffered minor pains because of the way Maximo rans, it was bumpy.
"Stop! Stop!" Nile said frantically. He could not take it anymore.
Even with the defensive capability of the garments he wore, it could still not block the pain he felt on his groin, especially because it keeps on getting hit from Maximo\'s back.
Now, Nile is lying face down on Maximo\'s back while he assumes a hugging position.
Maximo, hearing Nile\'s frantic shout, stopped suddenly. It causes Nile who had nothing to hold on to to be flung forward with great momentum.
Nile\'s body had been thrown three meters away and because of the momentum, his body was dragged two meters further.
Nile is clutching his groin, his eyebrows are scrutinized because of the slight pain he felt in that area. Even with the increase of his Constitution, Level One° underwear and Level One° short, it could still not wholeheartedly protect a man\'s weak point.
Well, if a person who is not yet a Level One° tried to ride on Maximo\'s back, the organs on their genitals or groin area would surely burst and explode with the third hop.
Yes, Maximo is not doing a simple \'jog\'. It was hopping forward.
Can you imagine a cheetah running? Yes, Maximo\'s \'jog\' earlier is similar but with slow speed.
Every time Maximo landed from a hop, Nile would instinctively try to harder his groin. It was a surprise that Nile did not fall off from that.
A while later, Nile stood up and glared at Maximo, "Can\'t you be more gentle? It\'s my first time riding an animal."
Maximo\'s head dropped down. It will glance at Nile from time to time. It was clearly apologetic.
Nile could only smile wryly. It was his negligence as well, so it was not entirely Maximo\'s fault.
It was his first time riding an animal, so it was not a surprise that he ended up miserable.
He browses through the System Store and moves towards the Miscellaneous Items area.
There, he scrolled and finally found the thing he needed the most right now.
[Saddle and Bridle (Set)(Red and Black): Provides extreme comfort for the rider and for the mount. Have you experienced it? The pain of having your balls slamming into the back of your mount? Then this is what you need, substitute the pain with comfort. Can be used for any animal (Autofit).
/20 Apocalypse Points. ]
So what if he wasted his supposed savings of Apocalypse Point yet again? This is necessary, as without it, Nile will never ride on Maximo\'s back again.
Ignoring the description which clearly is picking on his experience earlier, Nile bought the Saddle and Bridle. Of course, he chooses the Black and Red variant as it fits with his current color of clothes.
After it was successfully bought, it was transferred to the Storage Space, making the space even more crowded.
Nile immediately retrieved his newly bought item, and it appeared in his hand.
The saddle is small, Nile doubts if this could even fit into Maximo\'s broad back, but remembering the description of the item, it clearly stated that it has an Autofit function.
The saddle\'s size right now could only fit into a dog\'s back. That is the reason why Nile could still hold it normally.
The saddle, as what he bought, had a unique black and red color. The saddle itself was red, black lines surrounded every corner.
Nile raised the saddle and put it on Maximo\'s broad back, and as if by magic, it slid down and fitted itself to Maximo\'s back.
The bridle is black with red lines on its corners and tips.
Nile loosened the bridle and wore it above Maximo\'s mouth or muzzle. It then automatically tightened to fit itself on Maximo\'s mouth.
Maximo\'s eyes brightened when he saw Nile materializing items out of the blue yet again. It just further increased Maximo\'s reverence towards the almighty god, Nile.
Even though Maximo saw the color red, it did not become enraged just like in the cartoons he saw in his previous life. In fact, Maximo did not even react at all.
Its eyes only flickered with surprise and reverence when it saw the sudden appearance of the objects out of thin air.
When Nile puts the saddle at Maximo\'s back, Maximo is startled as it sees the saddle hug his back. But after a while, Maximo realized that it did not feel uncomfortable at all, all Maximo felt was comfort, it was as if something or someone was massaging his back. Maximo even thought that it was nice having that item on its back.
During that time when Maximo is enjoying the comfort on its back, Nile had already fitted the bridle on Maximo\'s muzzle. Just like at the back, Maximo also only feels comfortable with that thing on its muzzle.
Nile steps on the safety stirrups and hop on the saddle as he said,
"Alright, let\'s redo the failed ride earlier."
