Chapter 342 Harbored Feelings

Blood gushed out of the Owlursus's sliced body and made a pool of red on the ground. The dead Owlursus then slowly lost its balance and collapsed to the bloody earth. After killing the monster, Dane recalled her blades and surrounded her again. And it was the right time to show up. "You did great, Dane." "L-lord Raphael?!" Dane was startled by my sudden appearance, and her shoulders jumped up like a guilty kid caught doing something bad. But Dane was a mature adult, and she immediately struck her blades to the ground before she dropped her knee in my presence. "You may stand, Dane." "Thank you, sire." As per my words, Dane raised her knees. "But could I ask what Lord Raphael is doing here?" "I am here to see you." "Is that so?"

"That means..." Dane put on a sweet smile before she continued. "You may be younger and more superior than me, but I seem to start harboring feelings for you. It is not like I am obligated to do so as the prince's order or I am being ambitious, but no matter who you are, I am glad to be your lover, Lord Raphael." "Finally! Thank you so much, Dane!" "Whoa!" As soon as she accepted to be my lover, I did not hesitate to embrace her tightly and then lift her over the ground. I was so happy that I turned her around, and I even left a dent in her armor. After three rotations, I put her down and let go of my arms. "I'm sorry for damaging your armor, Dane. I think I was a bit excited. I could fix or replace it if you want." "It's fine, my lord. No need to do that." Soon after, she looked at the dent, and it started to plump back like a squeezed PET bottle. I totally forgot that she had a skill that could manipulate metals. In just a matter of seconds, the deep dent at the back of her cuirass disappeared as if it were not there in the first place. "It's done." "That's amazing, Dane." "Thank you." "Well, I know that it is too soon, but can I kiss you? You know, to seal our love?" "Eh?" Dane was surprised by my sudden request and stared at me blankly for a few seconds. "Right here, right now?" "Yeah. If you don't mind." "Um... I guess we could?" After that, I held her chin and moved her closer. She closed her eyes, and our lips met. Chuu. "Mmm..." At first, we did it lightly. "Ummh..."

Soon after, our kiss intensified and we started moving our tongues. While we were at it, I moved my other hand and placed it over the bustiest part of her cuirass. She seemed to acknowledge that I wanted to grope her breasts. "I want to do it with you, Dane." "...How about tonight, my lord?" "Very well. I am looking forward to that." In the middle of the forest, Dane and I kissed once more before I stored her loot, and then we went back to the palace.
