Demonic Dragon: Harem System Chapter 32: Are you afraid of something?

Strax barely felt his body, and Samira's magic was slowly fading. Unfortunately, they hadn't managed to find anything to make a fire, and Samira, being a body cultivator, had a really small Mana stock. Maybe she could last a few more hours with her fla, and that was alarming.

A shitty situation that Strax never thought he would encounter after just one day of travel. It's idiotic to think about it, but he had traveled for only one day, and he was already in a surreal and difficult situation.

"I don't know what to do," he thought. Of course, besides the negative thoughts, he saw those ssages in the system, and it seed like... the System wanted him to do sothing... Sothing he wanted to avoid now, but he went ahead.

By changing his thoughts, the notification changed, proving that what he was thinking was right... "Damn," he thought.

"How's your arm?" Strax asked, breaking the silence. Samira gave a crooked smile. "Wish it wasn't like this," she said and added, "But thanks for the bandaging... no one ever did this for ." She replied, that astute and wild woman had slightly dimd.

"You look different," Strax comnted with a smile. The woman gradually... was catching a glimpse of a future that for her would be impossible.

"I... I'm not good at dealing with these things," Samira comnted. Not even Strax knew exactly what she was thinking.

"Hm... I don't understand, but I can comprehend if you tell , how about that?" Strax comnted.

To improve the atmosphere of the place and at least reduce the emotional burden of the imminent end, it was the best solution now: to talk. That would calm both Strax and Samira, and maybe their thoughts would beco clearer... Of course, that's what Strax was thinking... As for Samira...

"I'm... afraid," Samira comnted as she looked at the small gap where the cold wind was coming from. Outside, a heavy snowstorm continued to roll, and slowly the snow was piling up near the cave entrance.

"Are you afraid of sothing?" Strax questioned. In fact, it was hard to tell if he believed Samira, since she had proven to be arrogant several tis and had boasted about her strength, saying she did it just for fun.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to prove I'm strong to them, and this just proves I'm weak," she said, referring to her injured arm, which was covered by Strax's shirt sleeve.

Strax sighed lightly, and Samira watched him. Then he said sothing that made her think. "I have fears too, many fears that I can't even summarize directly. I wish I were invincible, but fear is important."

"Fear is important?" Samira questioned, and Strax stared at her, looking into her eyes and smiling. "Wouldn't fear make you the person I know, right? I wouldn't be that person either, after all, our experiences create our personalities," Strax comnted as he smiled at her.

"I have many fears, losing my life, my wife, my friends, losing my life," Strax comnted, looking outside. "But you know... I think what I fear most is being weak forever," he comnted, and Samira rembered so mories that were not welco in her mind.

"You talk like my older sister," Samira comnted, and Strax looked at her. "Is she as beautiful as you?" With a joke and a smile, Samira couldn't help but laugh. "Hahaha no, she's very scary." The atmosphere... seed warr.

"She used to say that fear is like a shadow that follows us, always present, but never definitive. It's strange how sothing so intangible can have so much power over us."

Strax observed Samira with curiosity, noticing the change in her expression. "She's right, it seems to be interesting."

"Interesting? No, she's scary! My sister is a monster!" Samira said quickly. "Despite that... because of our family, we ended up drifting apart quite a bit, and I left." Samira said slowly, plunging into her own painful mories. She seed fine, but at the sa ti...

"I don't have any good mories with my siblings. It's complicated when you're the weakest, where strength is everything," Strax said and added, "That's why I want to be the strongest of all, to never depend on anyone to protect again." Strax said, clenching his fists...

'He's so... handso,' Samira thought, seeing his fla illuminating Strax's determined face as they talked. She hadn't noticed before, but... this man... was special in a way.

They were very close, basically leaning on each other's bodies while sharing the cloak as a blanket... Silence enveloped them, only the soft sounds of shared breathing breaking the stillness of the night.

Samira looked into Strax's eyes. She was thinking of various things, but sothing had slightly changed. Strax was the sa, he felt... attraction. Their hearts beat in unison as they both shared the complicated situation they found themselves in.

Without saying a word, seeing Samira staring at him, Strax slowly leaned in, his warm and familiar breath caressing Samira's face. She closed her eyes, surrendering to the mont, as the warmth of his body mingled with hers in a cold and uncertain atmosphere.

Their lips t in a gentle touch, as if confirming sothing they both already knew. It was a soft and delicate kiss.

Ti seed to disappear around them, leaving only the comforting sensation of each other's presence. The warmth of their bodies seed to dissipate the snowstorm and the cold weather. No intrusive thoughts disturbed that mont of pure intimacy, only the certainty that they were exactly where they should be.

When they finally parted, a tender smile played on both their lips, illuminating their faces with a unique glow.

Strax ignored the system ssages for a few minutes as he tried to understand what had just happened between him and this beautiful woman... In fact, he didn't even know why he did that. He just... felt it was his destiny.

It wasn't sothing the System programd. He had ignored the system and followed his heart in a complicated mont, and that had brought him a reward.
