Chapter 143: Bad Girl

The second day of joint training proceeded smoothly for Earl and Alea. After one day of training together the day before, their teamwork had improved by leaps and bounds and it would continue to improve.

Individually, the Grand Tower would be challenging to beat- nearing impossible. But together with the power of teamwork, their power is increased exponentially.

Earl was a workaholic who revolved most of his day around training. His thinking was unorthodox from his background on earth. This is further exemplified in the creation of his two original magics. With the upbringing of his Archmage mother, it was impossible for him to be weak with all the training and studying he has gone through.

Alea was a natural-born genius with rich battle experience. If someone could match Earl's work habits, it would be this princess. Her access to secret royal techniques and tutelage under Ari guaranteed her spot as one of the strongest within her generation.

Boom!

A minotaur was knocked back and slammed into a wall, causing spiderweb-like cracks to form.

"This is the end of this floor," Alea murmured.

They've reached the 14th floor. If they kept up this pace, they would be done with the joint training in a few days. However, that was unlikely as the difficulty spikes floor.

"Your stamina is impressive," Earl chuckled.

Yesterday, Alea was doing more work than Earl due to the lower difficulty. Now that the workload was split 50-50, Earl was suffering while Alea appeared to be breezing through the monsters.

"And I said it was fine to leave it to me."

"That would hurt my pride too terribly."

The rest area on this floor was the same as the other floor. An empty stone room with no furnishing. But this was nothing in the face of Alea who came prepared today.

In the corner of the room, she pulled out blankets and pillows from her storage device and laid them down. She casually took a seat before the awestruck Earl and gestured. "Come."

"O-Okay."

Needless to say, Earl was impressed. This level of thoughtfulness was on par with Aria and Lily. Indeed, he was fortunate to be surrounded by wonderful women.

The level of comfort from the blankets and pillows was akin to settling in an oasis after venturing in the desert for a whole day. He fully settled down and relaxed his mind with his back against the wall.

Alea was doing the same next to him. Their shoulders were briefly touching and they were accompanied by silence.

After a long while, she spoke. "Are you hungry?"

"What's available?"

"Me."

He has gotten used to her aggressive responses, quipping back lightheartedly. "How many steps did we skip this time?"

She smiled and looked at him. "I'm joking, of course."

"Getting my hopes up..."

"How much do I interest you?"

"Enough for me to marry you?"

"Good answer." Alea smiled wider and leaned in to kiss Earl. And Earl, being the pervert he was, took the chance to take things further.

Unlike their first kiss which was pure and innocent, this one became more erotic- involving their lips and tongues entangling together.

The taste of Alea's saliva was light and sweet, like the most freshly produced nectar. Her tongue was slow and clumsy from her lack of experience but under Earl's lead, she was following along well.

When they separated, there was a thin line of saliva connecting their lips. The princess was hooked. She drew her face closer to Earl's and pressed her forehead against his.

Her emerald green eyes were right in front of his face. The eyes were the window to the soul. While they were the exact same shade as her mother's, they were very much different. Alea's was energetic and playful. As if a shackle has been unleashed, her playful and animated nature has come forward.

"I liked that. More."

Their lips connected once again. This time, Alea tried to take the lead. Her tongue moved clumsily but she was a quick learner. Entangling their tongue together over and over again, she quickly became more proficient with kissing.

Time passed and all that remained was the soft sound of their breathing. Alea pinned Earl against the wall and sat on his lap. Her actions were straight to the point and aggressive which he did not mind.

Her beautiful doll-like face was blushed and her eyelashes fluttered. With gem-like eyes full of emotions, a slight smile was formed on her lips. They were wet, glossy, and plump from the kissing earlier which made her look alluring to the extreme.

Her body was toned and soft at the same time. From his experience with many women, the quality of Alea's skin stood out the most. They were so soft that it was almost like she was boneless. His touches were infused with Charm Magic, drawing her even closer and getting her addicted to his touches.

"What kind of girls do you like?" The princess softly asked.

"It's unlike you to ask something like that," He lightly replied.

Alea pinned him further into the wall, pressing her ample breasts tightly against his chest. "I'm a bad girl."

Earl lightly blew on her ear, giving her a jolt and whispered, "Why do you think so?"

"I'm not very gentle. I'm pushy and selfish. They are not good traits. Even now, I do not know how I should behave so I am letting out my desires on you."

"You should know how I am. I think the way you're acting right now is very... lovely."

His words were like honey to the princess in heat. It spiralled her further down her thoughts. If she was going to be his wife, he was going to develop her to her fullest potential.

"The books told me that men like their women submissive. This position is okay for you?"

"Don't think too much. I will be myself while remaining honest with you, so you should do the same."

"I see. I will be honest then." Alea came to a decision. A wider smile appeared on her noble as her mental shackles went away.
