Chapter 165: Stop Ogling Us Already!

Seeing how cute and embarrassed she was acting, Asher smiled and pulled her close enough so he could kiss her forehead lightly, which startled Scarlet at first before leaving her in a daze afterward.

"Don't worry, Scarlet. I was just teasing you. It's alright if you don't want to do something that makes you uncomfortable." He whispered in a gentle tone before giving her another small kiss on the cheek.

This sudden display of affection shocked Scarlet, and her face turned crimson as she gazed into his kind blue eyes while listening to his comforting words, realizing that he truly cared for her happiness and feelings. She felt her heart flutter at this realization, and a strong urge to hug Asher overwhelmed her, so she did just that.

Meanwhile, a sweet smile formed on Cecil's lips as she watched them hug each other before she realized that she was still caressing Asher's cock underwater, which made her retract her hands as if she had burned them and place them over her thighs to keep from doing anything improper again.

Her face soon turned red from embarrassment, and she glanced sideways at the hot spring's water. She wanted nothing more than to disappear from there and hide somewhere in shame, as she couldn't believe her shameless behavior in front of Scarlet.

Shortly, she felt someone touching her shoulder, causing Cecil to jerk her head towards the source and come face to face with Asher.

His handsome features made Cecil feel as if she were floating in the sky, and his charming smile was capable of melting away all worries, stress, or anxiety from anyone who laid their eyes on it. But, for some reason, Cecil's heart beat faster than ever as she gazed deep into his blue eyes.

"Hey, why are you suddenly becoming shy and avoiding my eyes? Is this because of what you did before? Don't worry too much about it. We were just fooling around and having fun after a tough situation. There is no need to feel awkward about this."

Hearing his reassuring words helped calm Cecil's nerves a bit, as she gave him a shy smile. "Hmmm..."

At that moment, Scarlet looked at Cecil with an amused expression on her face and teased, "Oh, Cecil... You became quite daring today. To think that you would play such games with Asher, I never expected this from you, considering your usual shy behavior."

"Ahh... Scarlet! Please don't say that... I just got swept up by the moment, that's all."

Cecil covered her flushed cheeks in embarrassment as she listened to Scarlet's teasing remarks and struggled to explain her actions.

She didn't know why, but touching Asher made her feel excited and happy deep down, although it also made her nervous that he might think less of her. She didn't want to appear promiscuous or slutty in any way because of this, so she looked at Asher with worried eyes.

"Scarlet, stop teasing her, or I'll start teasing you instead, alright?" He warned Scarlet with a wry smile and wrapped an arm around both girls.

Scarlet puffed her cheeks in annoyance but didn't refute his words since she didn't feel up for doing anything naughty yet.

She then remembered something important and asked, "Hey, wait a moment. We can't waste time here. We have to return to the Twilight Mist Sect and explain the situation to my mother! I don't want that Rick guy causing any more problems."

Asher furrowed his brows as he thought about the problem at hand.

It was true that they needed to handle this issue as soon as possible. He nodded and sighed, "Indeed, I can't let that asshole get away with this. However, it will take us time to reach the sect."

Scarlet took out a red set of silk bra and panties, which had intricate patterns embroidered on them, and wore them. Then she donned a red cheongsam with golden patterns that hugged her curves and accentuated her hourglass figure. At last, she tied her long crimson hair into a ponytail, exposing her beautiful face, which had delicate facial features.

On the other side, Cecil took out a white bra and panties, which were decorated with cute ribbons and small flowers. She then put on a short green dress that complimented her figure and left her long black hair unbound, letting it flow freely behind her back. To put a final touch on her beauty, she wore black stockings that went up to her upper thighs.

All the while, Asher looked at them with an appreciative gaze, drinking in their exquisite forms.

Their attire not only complemented their looks but also revealed some parts of their skin, giving him an eyeful view of their voluptuous chests and curvaceous asses.

'These girls are truly dangerous. With such attractive figures, there would be many young men desiring them. However, since I got to know them, I won't allow them to go to another man.' He thought.

Soon, the girls finished changing their clothes and turned their heads to Asher to see whether he was ready to go.

However, they couldn't help but stop their movements and stare at him with flushed cheeks, as he still remained naked, with his glorious manhood standing tall and proud for everyone to see.

After a moment, Scarlet gathered her wits and screamed, "Stop ogling us already! Hurry up and put on some clothes."

"Haha. I was just enjoying the sight of the two of you. How could I ignore such beauty?" Asher grinned as he began dressing himself, putting on his usual attire consisting of a black coat over a white shirt, dark pants, and black shoes.

The girls' faces reddened further upon hearing his teasing comments, and they turned their heads away from him.

Asher laughed when he saw them react in such cute ways and waited for them to compose themselves before speaking once more.

"Okay, Girls. I am ready. Come, let's leave this realm now."

Both girls nodded and activated their respective soul marks to transfer them back to the outside world.

The next moment, a white light enveloped the three of them, and they vanished from the secret realm.

Soon after, they arrived in the very same place in the Black Forest and saw the destroyed forest and ground, covered in burn marks and destruction.

The earth and trees were burned in large areas, creating a blackened field of ash, dust, and rubble. The whole scene made them shudder in fear, thinking that they could have died in such a terrible explosion.

Cecil's expression turned sad once again when she remembered how she had betrayed her best friend, Scarlet, and was forced to fight her.

However, she resolved herself that she would protect Scarlet at all costs from now on and support her with everything she had.

Scarlet also recalled how much she had suffered due to Rick's schemes and was determined to make him pay for everything he had done.
