The Elemental Sword Demon King
Episode 169: Boring Story
Under ordinary circumstances, he would definitely start whipping her with his Fire Whip. However, this time it was not Kaizo's fault, and Victoria became panicked with a flushed expression.
"Achoo's." Victoria sneezing sweet.
"If you stay wet, you'll catch a cold."
"I-i know! Kaizo, turn around and face the other way!"
"A-ah, right." Kaizo turned around and faced the wall, closing her eyes.
Against the background sound of the torrential rain, the seductive sound of clothes sliding from the body appeared extremely loud.
(What's with this undressing voice now!?)
Keeping his eyes closed, Kaizo finds it harder to stop his imagination from going wild.
"Ti-it's okay now."
Receiving permission, Kaizo turned towards Victoria and asked, "I can open my eyes?"
No answer from Victoria, Kaizo asked once more, "Victoria?"
"You can."
The hesitant answer. Kaizo opened his eyes. Appearing before his eyes was an overly stimulating sight for a boy his age.
"What!?"
Stripped of her uniform, Victoria wore only one article of underwear. Furthermore, it was merely a pair of clothes in a very thin lace. She was almost completely naked.
Her delicate snow-white skin, adorned by the bright red hair covering her body, was an erotic enough sight to behold.
The only grace that saved was the fiery hell Salamander whom he hugged on his chest to hide his bare-chested state.
"Why, why do you look like that?!"
"I-This is a maneuver «Red» Guards!" Victoria averted her gaze as she showed a timid expression.
"Don't mind me, you should hurry up and get naked too!"
"Me?"
"Do you intend to leave me as the only one in this embarrassing state?"
Staring sharply, Kaizo had no choice but to nod and agree, "A-ah right, I understand."
Perhaps due to Victoria's seductive appearance, her mind might be completely shocked. As Kaizo took off her wet shirt, Victoria's cheeks instantly blushed bright red completely.
Just as he was about to take off his clothes, a light scream sounded. "Well!"
"You told me to be naked!"
"Eh, right, sorry..."
Underneath, Kaizo wore half a garment that could be used as a swimsuit. Since she was dressed in the same way for the purification ritual by the lake, the reason for being surprised should not be in theory.
Then for some time afterwards, the two were caught in silence. All that was left was the sound of a crackling bonfire.
(W-what-what-what's this. What is this shameful atmosphere?!)
Swallowing a mouthful of air, Kaizo silently glanced towards Victoria. With her untied ribbon and unraveling hair, Victoria seems to have a more mature charm than usual.
Light reflected off the delicate skin of his neck. As soft as fresh snow, her beautiful body looked like it would melt with just a touch of a finger.
After removing his knee-length socks, his dazzling thighs made Kaizo not dare to stare directly. The lingerie fabric is also quite thin and offers a slight glow of wet skin underneath.
Surprised, Kaizo intended to take his eyes off, but Victoria started the conversation first.
"Hey..."
"Hmm?"
"Say something, find something interesting to talk about."
"That really makes me out of sense. How could I find something interesting to talk about by being asked so suddenly?" Kaizo answered nervously.
For Kaizo who had dedicated his life to practicing combat since childhood, asking him to chat and comfort a girl was indeed a difficult matter.
"Speak about whatever you want. I'll decide whether it's interesting or not."
"Much easier said than done. All right, I get it. It was when I was patrolling the schoolyard with Eve..."
"Can't talk about another girl. That's not interesting at all."
Somehow displeasing him, Kaizo is interrupted once he restarts, "How troublesome young girl." Kaizo crossed his arms and racked his brain.
(A fascinating topic, ah?)
Then, he suddenly recalled in the past when Kaizo was a child. Every night, that person would tell a bedtime story.
Night after night, he would tell these stories to her. For Kaizo's days as a young boy, this could be considered his only joy.
Whenever Kaizo bullies her to tell her the stories she likes, she will patiently tell them to her. Even now, he could still recite some of its contents.
(That's all I can think of talking about.)
Kaizo coughed lightly and began to speak, "First, there was a spirit sealed within the lamp in a certain place..."
"Sorry, Kaizo."
"Yes?"
"Sorry, but I already know this story. It's very famous on the mainland, you know?"
"I understand."
Come to think of it, Victoria loves to read. It was natural for him to know his story. Finding his precious story rejected, Kaizo could think of no other story to tell.
Surely, Victoria would be interested in her experience with the girl after escaping from the Instructional School. But raising that subject will definitely lead to the incident three years ago.
"sorry. I'm out of ideas." Kaizo apologized honestly. However, Victoria did not seem too happy, but smiled gently.
"A man who is too boring in conversation is no good, you know? Next time, try harder to prepare before your next date."
"Dating?"
"Oh, mom-no, not that! I-I just said something wrong by accident!" Victoria hugged Salamander tightly, causing the Salamander to scream in shock.
"The rain hasn't stopped yet."
"Well..." Victoria breathed slowly.
"After the Rossvale Kingdom team left this place, where could they go?"
"Already knocked out by another team, maybe?"
"Given the strength level of those Rupture Division members, do you think they could be eliminated so quickly?"
"However, only if that happens, the alliance invitation will make sense. It might not be completely eliminated, but their team had to be half-destroyed, in a state where they had no choice but to ally with the others."
"It's impossible, right..."
Suddenly, what popped into Kaizo's mind was the figure of the black knight «Tim Inferno» mentioned in his group discussion this morning. Also, the dark spirit girl was in action along with the black knight.
(Allen.).
Seeing Kaizo's gaze falling on her left hand, Victoria asked carefully. "Say, Kaizo."
"What?"
"About the girl, can you tell me more?"
"That girl?"
"Your contracted ex-spirit, that dark spirit girl."
"Don't you say I shouldn't talk about other girls?"
"Now I'm allowing you."
Kaizo sighed softly. He averted his gaze slightly from Victoria's naked body illuminated by the bonfire.
"He, Alicia was responsible for teaching me back at Instructional School."
"Teaching, combat skills?"
"No, he taught me everything. Absolutely everything."
(That's right, what he taught me wasn't limited to combat-related skills. He also returned to me something precious that had been lost from within me.)
"Really, is that all? How was that time at the park?" Victoria looked at Kaizo pleading as she asked.
"How's what?"
Faced with Kaizo's counter question, Victoria stuttered as if she was at a loss for words, "Emm, that..."
Finishing himself, he spoke up, "I-it, kiss, you must have done it with the dark spirit girl."
"Huh?" Kaizo's face twitched. "Are you really, li-see that!?"
He recalled what happened on the night of the dance that was held in the castle at Wind Palace. In search of Victoria who disappeared after a fight, she meets Alicia who suddenly appears in the park.
