‘So this is what life is all about. This is what it feels like to feel.’
Vik commented to himself as he relished the moment. Relished in the company of someone who he thought he knew from childhood. It was as if he had lived his life as Eren and could finally do what he had been anticipating for a long time.
At this very moment, Vik accepted his other identity as Eren. He also felt that all his thoughts and emotions had been mixed into him, making him see himself as a reborn Vik with Eren’s emotions added to his psyche.
There were various reasons for Vik to accept his other identity as Eren. One dominant reason was that he didn’t have a choice.
But apart from that and various other reasons he could possibly come up with, there was one reason he had come to realize was as dominant as the first one. He liked the feeling that he could care for someone other than himself or Tory.
All these thoughts were swirling inside Vik’s head and they felt like he was processing them in a near-stagnant world. But they were concluded within a moment in real-time, allowing him to respond to Reece’s advances.
The young girl had taken matters into her own hands in the drunken-like haze of her desires. She pressed onto Eren’s body with hers while responding to his French kiss in a wild manner. It was clear that she was acting on her instincts.
“Ummmm.”
Reece moaned while his lips were locked. Her tongue was wantonly dueling against Vik’s. Her moan reverberated into Eren’s ears with a bit of vibration, making him process it more clearly than what he could have only heard with his ears.
Vik tasted Reece’s lips. He liked their flavor on his tongue. He also found out that Reece had started manifesting her elemental affinity on her body subconsciously.
Her body was on fire. Metaphorical and literal.
Reece was wearing a white night top and white pants, her usual outfit for sleeping at home. Vik had only worn his black sweatpants, leaving his torso completely exposed. It was Reece who had removed his tee earlier while he was sleeping. To make him comfortable. The guy was sweating because of his condition after all.
When Vik saw that a green fire had been manifested on the exposed parts of her arms, he wasn’t surprised. He also felt that the flames weren’t harmful to him or their surroundings. The flames just burned silently, as if they were not real.
Vik immediately understood that there was a difference between his elemental manifestation and Reece’s.
His elemental manifestation was wild and could affect the surroundings even when he didn’t want to. That’s because he didn’t make the mana his own before manifesting it due to the lack of a mana core. Basically, his body was just a conduit for the mana to manifest into his element.
‘The lack of mana core is my biggest weakness at this point.’
Vik didn’t stop thinking about his plans even while he was busy sharing an intimate moment with Reece. The Vik-part of him was allowed to think these thoughts as the Eren-part of him indulged in Reece’s company.
The lust could be clearly seen in Reece’s eyes right now. The mini green flames on her exposed skin were getting brighter. She gripped Vik’s hand and guided it to where her lady part was between them. She kissed him passionately as she did that.
Vik could only comply with Reece’s advances. As his other hand pressed his partner’s buns more, he gave his fingers a workout.
Explore. Rub. Press.
Vik’s fingers worked like they were playing Moonlight Sonata on a piano that only had two keys. After a while, he could also notice a certain musky aroma lingering in the room.
Vik realized that it was Reece. Her love juices were overflowing. He wasn’t surprised by that fact. What surprised me more was the fact that he could catch a whiff as if he was staring right at the source. Even as a false Rank 1, his body stats were above normal humans.
Just when Vik thought he should take things to the next stage, Reece’s expressions changed and her body froze. She gulped and looked in the direction of the door before quickly jumping away from Vik’s bed.
‘What the…’
Vik was confused by Reece’s sudden actions. Just when he was about to ask her why she was giving me blue balls, he saw the reason for which Reece had done what she had done.
Knock. Creak. Open.

Morning 7 AM.
“Reecy dear. Eren, I am sorry. I was just checking up on you. I didn’t know you guys were…”
A young-looking mature woman was seen chatting with two teens at the breakfast table. The white-haired young man and the green-eyed girl seemed to be busy eating their fill as they concentrated on what was on their platter entirely. They seemed to be on the clock.
But if one looked close enough they would find that the teens were trying to look away from the interrogative gazes of the woman who was sitting on the other side of the table, having the same breakfast as them– Waffles.
“Mom, there’s no need to be sorry. We weren’t doing anything. I was just helping Vik stretch a bit before his morning routine exercise. Unlike you, I actually care about us. Hmph!”
This attractive woman was Rumi Green. She was Reece’s mother. She was a very attractive brunette with pretty facial features, a sharp jawline, and dark green eyes. She was taller than even Vik and her curves were prominent.
Even when tied, her long hair reached her posterior. And she gave off a very caring aura. Yet Vik could feel that her existence was on a higher pedestal than him or even Reece who was Rank 1.
Rumi chuckled when she heard her daughter’s answer. She focused her gaze on Reece before commenting in a taunting manner.
“Oh yeah? You were conceived because of the same stretching exercise, sweetie. So make sure you take precautions. Hehe.”
Rumi couldn’t control her laughter as she looked at both Reece and Vik. She then focused on Vik AKA Eren who didn’t utter a word the whole time.
The guy looked at those waffles as if he had found something mysterious hidden in them. He was devouring them like this was his last meal of life.
