Chapter 595: A Fun Beach Trip

(Alpha Star System- Planet Gaia)

(Rohsan Province- Private Beach)

“Any luck Cleo?” Sophie asked lazily as she leaned against a nearby tree and tugged at the fishing rod in her hand.

“Nope… nothing yet babe,” Cleo replied cheerfully as she reeled in her line and prepared to attach another piece of bait to the hook.

Rachel narrowed her eyes and focused on the waves that were gently crashing on the shore. She tentatively walked towards the water and dipped her toes.

It was a beautiful day.

The two suns of planet Gaia were shining brightly in the sky and a nice cool breeze brushed against the girls’ faces.

Small waves crashed against the sandy shoreline, and one could see marine life in the distance briefly surfacing to take in some air before diving back underwater.

One week had passed since the incidents in N’rean City and nothing had really happened.

Duke Peterlor was still investigating the mastermind behind the attacks, but it appeared as though the person or organization responsible for the attempts had gone quiet.

It was probably only a matter of time before they got caught so Sophie wasn’t feeling too worried.

Besides Rachel was only here for a few more weeks so it would be a shame to force her to stay in the Peterlor mansion for the entire vacation.

It would be too risky to return to public spaces so soon after the attacks, but private beaches and usually inaccessible locations should be fine.

Plus, Sophie was sure that her father had sent some guards to ensure their safety.

Those guards were nowhere in sight, but the hybrid girl could sense their presence nearby.

“Hmm… we really don’t seem to be getting any fish today…” Sophie whispered casually as she walked over to Cleo.

The hybrid girl glanced at Rachel and saw that she was playing in the water and not paying attention to the two of them.

A mischievous glint surfaced in Sophie’s eyes as she suddenly kneeled down and grabbed Cleo’s face to give her a passionate kiss.

“Mhmm…” Cleo groaned slightly as she felt a warm tongue enter her mouth while a hand pinched her backside.

Sophie quickly broke away from the kiss and stood up as if nothing had happened.

She smiled teasingly at her girlfriend and then returned to her fishing spot leaving Cleo with a face that was bright red.

It wasn’t often that she got the chance to be the one who did the teasing in their relationship, so Sophie cherished these moments.

Sophie sat back down under the shade of a large leafy tree with thick heavy branches that provided decent shade against the harsh sunlight.

“Enjoying the water, Rachel?” Sophie cupped her hands around her mouth and shouted. The saintess looked back and gave her a thumbs up.

Rachel walked a bit further into the ocean until the water reached her chest area. She closed her eyes and her cup size reduced from B to A.

In the ocean she preferred to have her body as slender as possible. Rachel took in a deep breath and then ducked her head underwater.

It wasn’t necessary for her to breathe, but Rachel had seen humans do it in the videos she had seen on the Virtual Net.

The saintess opened her eyes and stared in amazement at the beautiful sight. The floor of the ocean was made from white sand that felt soft to touch.

One could see small marine plants on the ocean floor with small fishes darting between them.

Rachel watched as one fish opened its mouth and a thin needle-like spear exited its orifice before stabbing a nearby fish of similar size.

The saintess gazed in wonder as she stretched out her arms and began to swim downwards to get a better look.

Rachel had always loved the ocean as a child.

She had never gotten the chance to visit one since she grew up in the city but something about the water had always fascinated her.

It was a completely different world underwater and most planets had the greatest biodiversity in their oceans.

Life could not survive without water.

While the saintess was enjoying herself, Sophie was roused from her lazy mood by two sharp tugs on her fishing line.

Holy shit she had gotten one!

“Cleo! Cleo! Cleo!” Sophie exclaimed excitedly as she grabbed the handle of her fishing rod and began to reel in the line.

“Got a bite?” Cleo asked curiously as she gently put down her fishing rod and walked over to her girlfriend.

Sophie gritted her teeth as the fishing rod trembled in her palm. This was clearly a big catch and whatever had bitten the bait was not going down without a fight.

The hybrid girl secretly channeled some qi to her palms and then yanked the fishing rod upwards with all of her strength.

Crack!

Cleo grabbed her sides and giggled uncontrollably at the look on Sophie’s face when her fishing rod snapped in half.

“Too much force babe,” Cleo smiled sweetly as she flicked her girlfriend on the forehead.

“Gee… you think?” Sophie replied sarcastically as she held one piece of the fishing rod in her hand because the other had been dragged into the water.

“Want to use mine?” Cleo suggested as she stretched out her hand. Sophie grabbed the princess’ palm and lifted herself up from the ground.

She walked over to Cleo’s fishing spot hand in hand with her girlfriend. Even after dating for several months… heck it was almost a year now…

Sophie still felt her heart race as she held her girlfriend’s hand. Cleo was the most beautiful girl in the universe.

The hybrid girl squeezed Cleo’s palm twice and a faint pinkish mist began to spread from the corner of her right eye.

No… calm down… calm down…

Sophie took in a few deep breaths and gently exhaled. It really was tough to have to dial it back sometimes when her love threatened to trigger her lust state.

The last thing she needed was to do was throw down Cleo and rip off her clothes right in front of an audience of all the hidden shadow guards and Rachel.

Cleo’s naked body could only be seen by her.

Possessiveness surfaced in Sophie’s eyes as she gently pressed her lips against the side of her girlfriend’s cheek.

Eventually the two arrived at Cleo’s fishing spot. There was a small stream only a few hundred feet away that flowed directly into the ocean.

A large furry brown animal was currently drinking from the water. Its three eyes glanced in the direction of Sophie and Cleo before deeming them not a threat.

It swayed its furry tail from side to side before vanishing into the nearby forest without a trace.

Sophie snapped a picture of the departing animal using her wrist communicator and stored it in her photo album.

She planned on occasionally taking pictures of their vacation and making a compilation to send to her friends.

“You know… fighting is good and all, but I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t enjoy peaceful days like this,” Sophie confessed quietly as she leaned against Cleo’s shoulder.

“Want to run away then?” Cleo replied in a semi-serious tone.

“Settle down on some far-away planet where no one knows us and live out the rest of our lives together…”

“Maybe one day… honestly that doesn’t sound too bad,” Sophie mused as she couldn’t resist the urge to kiss Cleo again.

These peaceful moments… she wished that they could last a lifetime.
