Women and men alike fawned over them, their eyes sparkling with admiration.
A woman grabbed Jaja's arm, her voice breathless with excitement. "Can I take a selfie with you?"
"Sure," Jaja replied with a charming smile.
Another woman, her eyes wide with awe, reached out to touch Roxer's muscles. "Wow, they're even bigger than the ads! Can I blow you, hot stuff?" she asked, her voice dripping with desire.
Roxer, ever the charmer, grinned. "Of course you can. Put your number in my phone."
She eagerly complied, and before she could step away, another woman pushed forward. "Wait, I want to blow him too!"
Roxer held up his hands, a playful glint in his eye. "Calm down, ladies. You all can get a fair share of the Hammerian."
A younger man in his early twenties stepped forward, a hopeful look on his face. "What about me? Do you swing both ways?"
Roxer's expression darkened. "Hell no, I'm a man's man. I'm not some liberation cuck."
Jaja leaned in close, his voice a low whisper. "Maybe you shouldn't sleep with every woman you see?"
Roxer chuckled, his confidence unshaken. "Tomorrow is not promised, Jaja. A man's conquest is his body count, and destroying civilizations with a single strike of the hammer."
He slid the young man a small sheet of paper. "Let's book a hotel. I'm in the mood for conquering."
Inside a fancy hotel, the sounds of intimate lovemaking echoed through the halls. A woman's voice cried out, "Oh Roxer, dominate me!"
Meanwhile, in the room across the hall, Jaja sat in a chair, smoking a cigarette. A naked woman sat across from him, her eyes fixed on him with a mix of curiosity and desire.
"Jaja," she began, her voice soft, "you really don't want to do anything?"
She held a brick of cash in her hand, a tempting offer. Jaja shook his head, his gaze distant. "Na, I just want to feel close to someone, ya know. You don't have to say or do anything."
Elsa, the woman, was taken aback. "You sure? I can just give you head. I mean, you're really hot."

Jaja pulled away gently. "Thanks but na, I'll pass. What's head to a man or woman on an island like this? All I desire is somebody to hold me, ya know."
Elsa's expression softened. "Awe, that's so sweet."
She got on her knees and crawled to him, beginning to unbuckle his pants. Jaja pulled away, his voice firm. "I SAID NO!"
Elsa looked up at him, a mix of embarrassment and apology in her eyes. "I'm sorry."
Jaja felt bad he raised his voice "I'm sorry i shouldn't have yelled at you."
Jaja's voice was gentle but resolute. "I've done that a million times. I'm not like Roxer. I don't get off on sleeping around, it does nothing for me."
Elsa nodded, understanding. "Okay."
Back in Roxer's room, the door opened, and two women stepped out, their faces flushed with pleasure and satisfaction. "Wow, that was so much fun! You really are a freak honor boy," one of them gushed.
Roxer, ever the confident conqueror, replied with a smirk. "Well, what can I say? When you're the strongest on the island, ya gotta know how to please the ladies."
He handed each of them two bricks of cash. "This is a tip for your amazing skills."
Back in Jaja's room, he lay on the bed, Elsa beside him. Jaja's voice was soft, almost dreamlike. "I was just a boy, no older than 6 or 7, when me and my family arrived at Dragon Hive. We were living on a small island called Tandreth, it only housed about 2,000 people. It was like a little island full of evergreens and roses. I used to sit outside with my mother just to watch the wind blow over the roses."
Elsa listened intently, her heart aching for the young Jaja. "That sounds beautiful."
Jaja's eyes took on a distant, melancholic look. "It was."
Elsa prompted gently, "How did you get to Dragon Hive?"
Jaja's voice grew heavier with each word. "Bacteria monsters somehow made their way to Tandreth. All it took was one, and it planted itself into the ground. It took only months, wait no, it took days, before half of the island was corrupted by bacteria. Our leader contacted the United Skylands Federation, but at that time, they didn't have many transport vehicles to take people from one sky land to another. They prioritized bigger sky lands with bigger populations."
Elsa's eyes widened in horror. "Gosh, that's terrible."
Jaja's voice trembled slightly. "Yeah, Most of the island got sick, including my mother. They all died, and I was left alone. The bacteria monster began to attack the remaining population, and I almost died until he saved me?"
Elsa leaned in closer, her curiosity piqued. "Who?"
Jaja's voice held a note of reverence. "Roxer, the artist child in the Hammerian class. He taught me everything I know about combat, how to survive, and how to kill bacteria monsters. In only 3 months, the two of us managed to destroy half the bacteria monsters on the island. I awakened my art, the Herculean class. But of course, we were just kids. The bio-creatures were far superior at the time. Eventually, the transporters came to get us off the island. We had a choice to either go to the island Deer Point or Dragon Hive. Roxer chose Dragon Hive, so I followed him."
Elsa's eyes sparkled with newfound respect. "Wow, I was wondering why you hung out with such a scary man. I mean, the people love him, but idk, he seems like a bit much."
Jaja chuckled softly. "Yeah, he can be a handful. I don't agree with many of his views, but I will always consider him a bro for saving my life."
Elsa's voice was filled with empathy. "Your story is so sad, and yet you turned out so sexy-looking. Can I kiss you?"
Jaja nodded, a small smile playing on his lips. "Sure."
Elsa leaned in to kiss him, but their moment was abruptly interrupted by the sound of the door slamming open. Jaja and Elsa stared at Roxer, who stood in the doorway, a mischievous grin on his face.
"Bro, you still haven't conquered this one?" Roxer asked, his eyes twinkling with amusement.
Elsa, her voice firm, replied, "Excuse me, I am not someone to be conquered, Mr."
Roxer chuckled, undeterred. "Y'know, bro, if she's not your type, you can just pass her on to me."
Jaja laughed, but deep down, he wasn't happy. He thought to himself, "I just want to feel close to somebody. It's been a while since I felt loved."
A vision of his mother hugging him flashed through his mind. Jaja's voice was soft, almost a whisper. "One day, I will return back to you, Tandreth."
