Chapter 722 Dating Life

The dating life of Michael and Alice wasn't as exhilarating as they'd expected. Both thought the period between getting to know each other romantically and starting to date would be different. Neither anticipated Alice would be pulled into a large-scale war in the Origin Expanse.

Alice was always prepared for war but didn't expect a war near her borders to break out so suddenly. She had been on her third date with Michael when she sensed something was wrong with her territory. Thousands of Links of Loyalty tensed up suddenly, informing Alice Zenovia that something was wrong.

Alice had to leave. She jumped from the chair and leaned forward to press her lips against his cheek before disappearing for a month. Michael was a bit stunned, but he didn't hold her accountable for disappearing all of a sudden. He would have done the same if his territory was in danger. As long as Alice was fine, Michael would be alright as well.

He chose to enter the Origin Expanse as well because he was also busy. His territory was not that easy to manage after all. He returned to check if his Mother or Alice had returned. Two months passed in the Origin Expanse—one month outside—before Alice returned.

She wasn't injured, but Michael could tell that Alice was exhausted. Alice Zenovia was dead tired after fighting almost every day for the two months she'd spent in the Origin Expanse.

The first thing Alice did was to drop Michael a message. Following that, she collapsed on her bed. Alice didn't wake up until two days later. She was still tired from using Frozen Kingdom way too often, to an extent her mind and soul could barely handle. However, that had been necessary to emerge victorious against her enemies.

Michael and Alice met not long after for their fourth date. Unfortunately, their situation changed a little bit. They were not yet together, but both showed romantic feelings toward each other. Nonetheless, spending two months in the Origin Expanse was a lot of time, and the time they didn't see each other affected their emotions.

It was not like they didn't like each other anymore, but the awkwardness from the first date had returned. It was almost like their dating progress reset straight to zero.

Fortunately, both knew that they liked each other romantically. That understanding made reaching the old level in the getting-to-know phase much more straightforward.

Meeting up with Michael after being tensed up and forced to fight dozens of bloody battles was relieving. Alice Zenovia didn't expect that she could relax this quickly after witnessing the death of millions, but meeting up with Michael once was enough to disperse the tension that had taken root inside her body.

On the second date after she returned from the Origin Expanse, Alice could talk to Michael openly about all kinds of things. Most of her stories were related to the large-scale war that had interrupted their date, but Alice Zenovia also talked about stuff she had never mentioned to others.

He appeared before her, smiling vibrantly, and his right hands reached out. Michael pulled Alice closer to him at her waist with his left hand while cupping her head gently with his right. He pressed his lips gently against her lips before pulling back.

Alice tensed up for a moment, but a smile blossomed on her face. Her arms coiled around his neck, and she pulled him closer.

Their lips collided once again.

However, this time, they didn't share a short peck. Michael and Alice didn't separate for a while. Their brains shut off, and they allowed their instincts to take over.

It was not until more than ten seconds passed before their lips separated once again.

Michael stared at Alice, who chuckled through embarrassment, her ears burning fiercely.

Neither knew what to say at this moment. The pair could only stare at each other, embarrassment flushing through them.

However, it did not feel too bad. They were embarrassed together.

It felt good. Unique.

[A/N: The time skip made it a bit difficult to include the changes in their relationship in separate chapters. Therefore, I decided it would be best to write a chapter specifically for the embarrassed couple. I hope everyone likes it. If you don't appreciate it....eh...oopsie heh]
