I and Vale went for another round before we finally dragged our exhausted bodies toward the room for so rest.
Just before I drifted off to sleep, I glanced at the system, noticing my ero points had increased by 120.
’A substantial increase,’ I muttered internally, noting that I just had to do this roughly two more tis and she’d be mine.
’Life is moving so smoothly...’ I exclaid internally, a faint smile playing on my lips as sleep slowly claid .
Ti flowed quietly, and before long, evening had arrived.
By the ti I woke up, the sun had long since dipped below the horizon.
Glancing around, I noticed once again that Vale was nowhere to be found.
Letting out a breath, I ran my hand through my hair and stood up.
Wearing a blue shirt I found nearby, I strode out of the room.
Passing by the silent corridors, I asked the maids I t for Vale’s location and learned she was attending a eting.
Soon, I arrived outside the eting room.
Deliberating for a few seconds, I decided not to knock.
Pushing the door open, my gaze landed on Vale seated opposite another lady who I assud to be a succubus.
Both of their gazes turned to the mont I stepped in.
"Aristarkh," Vale’s face, previously filled with seriousness, broke into a smile, "I was just about to send for you."
"Really?" I raised a brow in surprise and leaned forward to give her a kiss, which she quickly returned.
The succubus shifted her gaze slightly away from the two of us, and when we were done, she turned her eyes back to Vale and continued.
"In that case, I will assign the sisters to imdiately dispatch for the cursed gate."
"Wait," Vale suddenly interrupted her, "Aristarkh and I will go to the cursed gate to eliminate her."
The lady was slightly taken aback by her highness’ words. "But..." she said, her face filled with confusion, "the sisters and I are enough to take care of her."
Vale smiled gently and shook her head. "Don’t worry about it, we’ll handle it. Just assign two sisters to accompany us in the anti."
"Yes, your highness!" the succubus stood up and saluted.
Finally, with nothing further to discuss, she quickly excused herself, leaving Vale and alone in the room.
I stared at Vale in silence, waiting for her explanation.
Not wanting to keep in suspense for too long, Vale explained, "I sent a few subordinates to locate the queen in the north and received news that she has recently entered a cursed gate."
"A cursed gate?" my eyes widened slightly, taken aback by the news.
Cursed gates were separate dinsions filled with cursed creatures, cursed artifacts, and things far worse.
It was believed that cursed gates were ancient lands where cursed creatures had once lived... places abandoned by ti itself.
"Yes," Vale interrupted my thoughts, "we’ll get training gear and leave for the cursed gate tonight."
I pondered for a bit before nodding.
’This would be my first ti entering a cursed gate, so it’s best to be prepared before then...’
I pulled up my system and noticed that my cursed rank had increased slightly from what it was before.
’It seems Lydia has truly been trying as much as possible to increase her strength...’
I was impressed upon noticing that I’d gotten to the first stage of a cursed warrior, rank 8. I was just 2 ranks away from entering the second stage.
Suddenly, Vale’s movents drew my attention back to reality as she stood up.
She was dressed in a deep green shirt that caused her nipples to peek faintly from beneath the fabric. anwhile, she wore tight leather pants that outlined her slender legs, delicate feet, and perfectly proportioned curves.
I couldn’t help admiring her for a few seconds, and the urge to fuck her was becoming harder to resist.
Running my hand through my hair, I couldn’t help grumbling, "Why do you have to dress so provocatively? Want to fuck you before we leave?"
Vale giggled lightly and grinned. "Not now, handso. You know if we start, we’d end up not going to the cursed gate."
She leaned closer and said in a low voice, "Perhaps later you’d have the opportunity to destroy my pussy as much as you want..."
I couldn’t help groaning in frustration as I kissed her, our tongues quickly getting entangled.
Monts later, our lips parted and Vale stared into my eyes, letting the tension between us stretch for a few seconds before she chuckled.
"Let’s go and get dressed. We don’t have much ti left." With that, she began walking toward the door.
I quickly tagged along with her, and before long, we left the mansion.
Her carriage was already prepared, with the driver from the previous ti lightly caressing the horses.
"Take us to the tailor’s cabin."
"Yes, mistress." He replied with a respectful nod.
His gaze lingered on for a few seconds, but the mont my eyes t his, he quickly shifted his attention, his mind clearly replaying the scene from before.
"Is he your slave?" as we entered the carriage, I couldn’t help but ask.
"Why? Are you jealous?" Vale laughed lightly.
Finally, she shook her head after noticing the irritation in my eyes. I couldn’t possibly share my woman with soone else, and it seed she understood that.
As such, Vale quickly explained, "I have his parents as hostages, so he has no choice but to obey . Aside from him, there are a few others like that which I use to maintain my connection to the human world."
"I see..." I nodded in understanding, my eyes briefly gazing outward.
Silence descended between the two of us as the carriage rolled forward.
Vale glanced at through the corner of her eyes, wondering what was going through my mind.
Her thoughts continued playing out different scenarios as the urge to know more about kept surfacing.
"What do you think about this world? The conflict between cursed creatures and humans?"
"The conflict?" I mumbled, slightly stunned by the question.
In truth, I hadn’t thought much about it. After all, I couldn’t care less about the situation of the world.
As I wasn’t from this planet, I didn’t hold much emotional attachnt to it.
"Mmmhhh," Vale nodded, "if humans and cursed creatures enter into a war, which side would you stand on?"
"I don’t know for now." I finally replied truthfully. "Whichever side seems more beneficial," I added with a chuckle.
Vale laughed as well and lightly punched . "I didn’t expect you could be quite humorous."
"There are a lot of things you still don’t know about ."
"Mhhh?" Vale raised a brow in suspicion. "Like what?"
She narrowed her eyes slightly and added, "Aside from having a perfect body and being able to satisfy so well, what other secrets are you hiding, Aristarkh?"
I leaned closer toward her, closing the gap between us and asked, "Are you sure you want to know about it? You might not be able to handle it."
Vale chuckled. "Trust , there’s nothing I can’t handle."
"I’ll tell you after you beco my woman completely..." I replied, leaning back slightly onto the chair again.
"What do you an by that? Aren’t we together already?" Vale asked, her face filled with questions.
Just as I was about to reply, the voice of the driver drifted in from outside.
"We’ve arrived, your highness!"
