Chapter 117: Eros' here
At some point in your life, you learn about strong verbs.
It's pretty essential knowledge to express your feelings -- words mean a lot.
In her current state, Celes couldn't bother searching for a better word for 'confused', hovering her eyes on her master's side profile. She stood abreast and even embraced his arm, sinking him in her softness that he loved. Yet, she couldn't focus on making herself and him good and only stared at his new yet similar appearance.
Leon's golden eyes were like a mirror, where people he held dear could see themselves in a different light. Celes saw herself and her own feelings toward him, from her simple affection and her lazing in his arms to the craziness he induced within her heart after awakening her real self.
And when Leon shifted those eyes to her, the vampiress' heart jumped, and she blushed. She didn't know whether her master had seen through her or simply enjoyed her absent-minded expression.
It was crazy to think he could possibly know about her other side that absolutely went mad for him.
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
"Master... What just happened?" Celes didn't have the strength to think of her master's other changes and simply submersed herself in his golden eyes. "A second passed, right? Or did The Oracle do something?"
Leon understood that it'd take some time for everyone to get used to his new class and changes, and he also had a few things to fix in his appearance, so he allowed Celes to look at him as though he was a masterpiece and simply held her hand, answering all her questions.
Alexandra also listened from behind, bewildered.
"The Oracle stopped time." Leon's first reply made Celes narrow her eyes and glare back toward the temple. "I went through many changes and met a few people. A lot happened in that time, and I'll slowly introduce you to everything. But for now, I want to rest and wait for Louise. She'll be with us in two weeks."
"Oh, so I have only two weeks left... I can't ask for more." Celes naturally didn't like Louise returning back so fast because she was a woman in what seemed to be a harem. In this twisted relationship, girls were often enemies that fought for their sweetheart's attention -- to be selfish was a key to having their beloved for more.
Leon saw that Celes wanted more time for herself and patted her hair. He even wanted to say that Celes became ahead of Louise with everything that had happened in her absence but kept that for himself. He didn't want more competitiveness between them, but a part of him told him that Celes would leverage that.
Leon also believed that the world had way too much content for him and his beloveds. "We're just getting started... You'll find plenty of time to be with me... So much that you might get fed-up and bother Louise instead."
"I'll never have enough of master...." Celes sent a cute glance at her master and engulfed his arm deeper into her ample chest, trying to convince her master.
Leon wasn't a guy who would turn blind when a girl smiled at him. "Really now?"
Celes' smile remained unchanged. "Yes, Master. What could you possibly have in mind?"
"Who knows?" Leon didn't dare to start another argument, for he wanted to rest after events in the temple. "Have much have I changed?"
The vampiress looked directly at her master's smiling face. Though his eyes had a new charm, those only shone more and changed color! Her master kept looking at her in the same way. And that smile -- yes, it was her master's usual smile that he reserved for his dirty vampiress -- the smile with vampire fangs.
The sight of those teeth overjoyed Celes so much she jumped at her master, wrapped her arms around his neck, and tightly latched herself onto him. "Master... Your dragon maid will prepare a sleeping bag for you... and I'll become your pillow... You want me?"
"Yeah, couldn't ask for a better pillow." Leon would never refuse the vampiress whose body blushed with her heart burning with love and affection. He knew he would rest well on her soft and warm tits!
Celes happily purred into his neck and licked him there. "Mmm..."
Leon really felt back. He felt like he was back home and that Louise and Amaterasu were missing pieces... He inwardly laughed at himself, for after just one encounter, he was already into Amaterasu -- a second fox girl he had met in his new life... It was like he was one of those horny men from the Freya World that lusted after every beautiful flower.
Leon knew that she was a special case, though.
Not every girl could leave such a stamp on his heart -- Amaterasu was like an exquisite flower.
Leon couldn't help but take a look behind at Alexandra. This dragon maid had talked about exquisite flowers to him, and both of them realized that those would scream a lot. His strong will affected his new class and divinity, so Leon believed he wouldn't easily fall for those exquisite flowers as he did for Amaterasu... Well, with so many years ahead of himself and encounters with many flowers and people, it will come out in the wash, right?
He simply cast her a gentle smile, asked her to prepare a camp for them, and retracted his eyes to the ecstatic vampiress.
Alexandra bowed to him and secretly heeded his order.
In the blink of an eye, Leon found himself on a cushy pillow, which was nothing but Celes' soft flesh. Celes wore a simple and thin pajama, so Leon easily felt her nipples, which became erect owing to their mood. He didn't mind that and even used his cheek to rub them, faking fixing a comfortable sleeping position.
Leon closed his eyes and fell asleep relatively fast.
He had a lot to talk about with everyone, but he had been too tired, and Louise also needed to know about his changes and what had happened in their absence. Thus, Leon decided to focus on leveling up and his main quest.
And what was Leon's main quest?
"You're my successor." Eros' consciousness came out in Leon's dream.
Leon faced the man and nodded. "I expected you to come out and guide me for the last time."
