3117 Building Up (Part 1)

"It is a big deal to me to me." Kamila nuzzled her face on his shoulder. "Thank you. Do you have any other surprise up your sleeve?"

"Just one." Lith took the Tuner he had given her as a betrothal gift out of his pocket dimension.

Unlike the other Tuners he had crafted, the betrothal gift had several empty slots for songs that he would add as their relationship progressed.

"I know this isn't a romantic song, but this is how you make me feel." Lith conjured a Hush zone to not bother people and activated it.

The notes of Unbeatable by Skillset broke the silence of the night, making Kamila's eyes go wide in stunned surprise. It was clearly a rock song and she found it hard to believe Lith would play something like that on a date.

'It doesn't matter. As he always says, when you're happy you enjoy the music, but when you are sad, you understand the lyrics.' She thought, taking his hand and using a mind link to make up for her limited grasp on the nuances of the English language. Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com

Once the song was over and she understood its meaning, she went from confused to flattered.

"Really? This is how I make you feel?" She giggled.

"Yes. When I'm facing a tough opponent or some shit happens because of my undead nature, just reminding myself about you gives me strength." Lith was referring to the accident with the blue flames and the attack he had suffered from the wandering souls.

"I know that I can still die like anyone else, but you do make me feel invincible."

Kamila said nothing, just hugging him tight and emitting a purring sound. Sure, Unbeatable wasn't a love song, but it was his love song to her.

It made even noisy music a priceless gift and the highlight of their date to her.

"I'm a bit tired." She said after cuddling for a while. "If we don't get back to the hotel now, I'm afraid you'll have to carry me in my sleep."

"Steps or flight?"

"Steps, please. I don't want the wind to dispel this warmth." She buried her face in his chest to emphasize the concept.

She held one of Lith's old Orichalcum hammer as a prop.

"Well, who's predictable now, mister smarty pants?" She said with a giggle while noticing his shocked, surprised, and absolutely aroused expression.

Lith's knees started to wobble and he needed to sit down, holding the sides of his nose with his hands to keep his bottled emotions from ruining the mood.

"What's wrong, babe?" She held his face, forcing him to look her in the eyes. "Don't you like my costume? I thought the sexy Forgemaster was-"

"Thank you, Kami." Lith hugged her close, forcing her to sit on his lap.

"For what?" She asked in confusion.

"For building me up every day instead of tearing me down, even when we fight." He replied. "For caring so much about what I like and for making even the silly dreams I've forgotten about come true.

"I wish I could talk with my teenage self and tell him that it was worth it. Enduring all that shit was worth it."

"It's okay, baby." She sniffled, feeling him quiver under her touch. "You can cry if you want."

"Crying?" Now it was Lith's turn to be confused. "I'm not going to cry. I'm just having a really hard time not tearing your clothes off and ruining your hard work. Also, I can't find a way to go on with the roleplay without talking to your breasts the whole time."

The well-placed makeup, the lack of a shirt, and her bountiful chest that seemed to be about to pop out of the shortalls at any second, glued his eyes to her cleavage.

"That was the plan, boss." She chuckled, getting back into character. "Don't worry about the details. Just focus on teaching me how to handle and wield your hammer."

Free country of Lamarth. Beyond the eastern borders of the Gorgon Empire, in the Headquarters of the Master, that same day.

Bytra sighed in relief as the red lights on the Madness turned green one after the other. Zoreth's vitals were stronger than ever and the system revealed no anomalies in her physiology, yet that just meant the experiment hadn't worsened her condition.

Only when the final red light turned green and the nutrient liquid started to be flushed out of the gene tank did half of the Raiju's worries disappear. The other half would have to wait for Vastor's examination.
