Chapter 125: Mission: The City That Never Sleeps

One night later...

The sun was already rising on the horizon, casting its first rays of light over the sleeping landscape. Inside a cozy room, a man and his wife lay surrounded by the gentle warmth of the morning. The sunlight radiated across the polished wooden floors, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere.

Strax lay comfortably in the King Size bed, with Samira nude on top of him, sleeping like an angel. He could feel her gentle breath, her chest rising and falling rhythmically, while an angelic smile adorned her face. The scene was so purely tranquil that, if a photo were taken now, with the white sheet softly covering her body, one might think, "Wow, an angel fell into this demon's lap!"

Strax observed Samira's serene face for a moment before glancing towards the window, where the sun was slowly rising, illuminating the room with a golden glow. Suddenly, a notification appeared in his mind, interrupting his contemplation.

Strax read the message, somewhat confused. He had never received specific numbers about his cultivation progress before. Usually, the system provided only a vague sense of advancement without precise details. Perhaps it was because he had never asked the system about it before? It couldn't be said that the system was hiding the information; he simply had never requested it.

"So... the more sex, the faster this should increase... but depending on the person in question... if it were with Xenovia, maybe I would advance faster?" He was reflecting on a few things, and when touching on this point...

As he read the System messages and pondered what could really happen if he focused solely on cultivating this way, Samira moved slightly, adjusting on his body, and he turned his attention back to her. Her beauty and purity were a striking contrast to the intensity of his own existence. Strax smiled softly, appreciating the moment of peace and Samira's company.

"I hope I can continue like this for a while longer... Before returning to my journey..." Strax murmured, already contemplating what he could do to become stronger, but... "I won't rely on dual cultivation... especially knowing this system may or may not be advantageous. Besides... I won't be with women to become strong...

only because I want them." He thought as he continued to stroke the woman's fiery hair, feeling the softness of the strands between his fingers.

He knew he needed to get up and start the day, but he wanted to savor every second of that peaceful moment. Slowly, he moved, taking care not to wake her. With gentle and precise movements, he slid out of bed, adjusting the sheet over her body to keep her warm. Despite the rising sun, it was still early, and the cold dew permeated the entire house.

He got up and walked to the bedroom door, casting one last affectionate glance at Samira before leaving. He silently descended the stairs, the wooden steps making no noise under his bare feet. When he reached the kitchen, he found Monica, as usual, already busy with the morning chores.

Monica had her back to him, focused on preparing breakfast. The delicious smell of freshly baked bread and fresh coffee filled the air. Strax smiled at the familiar scene. Every time he saw Monica preparing something, he fell more and more in love with her. Calmly, he approached her from behind and hugged her, which didn't surprise her.

Strax stood up. "Thank you, Aric. I will prepare immediately," he said in a serious tone, trying to show some respect for what had been said... but inwardly...

Aric knelt once more before standing and leaving the house. Strax stood there for a moment, absorbing the information... "What a bad joke..." he murmured as he saw Monica entering the room. "That was the so-called important mission? What nonsense was that," Monica said, having heard everything completely. Even Strax was surprised by that, as Monica wasn't usually...

aggressive like this. "You~" "I am like this... I just try to control myself, but even I know this is a big joke," she said, sitting down in the chair.

"And so..." she said, "We're going there, right?" Monica questioned, and Strax nodded, "Even though we have a map, first I'll ask Cristine for information about this city. By the geography, it seems like a merchant city since it's by the sea... Not to mention its size, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack... this is going to be difficult," Strax murmured.

"Not necessarily," Monica said, reminding him of something... "Samira had a guild, and she probably still has the access card of a guild master. We can access the internal information market; it will be easy to find famous merchants that way.

The more famous, the harder it is to buy information, and judging by the level of information, we already know it's something big," Monica said in a quick analysis.

She had always been quite intelligent and always remembered things, even knowing that sometimes she forgot one thing or another. Strax was impressed by how quickly she thought of such a... simple solution?

"I'm glad I love you so much and won't let you escape so easily. This time, I'm quite impressed," Strax said, pulling her from the chair for a hug. "Let's try that then," he said with a smile, giving her a calm kiss on the lips.

"If it works, I want a reward," she said with a mischievous smile.
