After a short conversation with Arabel, Idan settled down comfortably, hugging her, feeling the coolness of her body. Arabel, on the other hand, enjoyed the pleasant warmth emanating from Idan due to the influence of their bloodlines. They didn’t notice how they both fell asleep.
The battle had exhausted them greatly, especially Idan. Although the Rank 4 pill helped him recover, being in such a comfortable environnt next to Arabel, Idan could not resist drowsiness. His mind surrendered without any resistance.
When they woke up, they saw the northern night sky and the bright lights of the distant city of Rumbus.
Ned approached the city without further ado and, at Idan’s direction, transford into Sierra in the air. Spreading her wings as dark as night, she caught Idan and Arabel and, applying disguise, flew swiftly towards the city.
"Huh?" — Arabel was surprised, looking at Ned’s transformation into a very familiar figure. She was speechless and looked questioningly at Idan, waiting for an explanation.
"Ah, Belle, the thing is..." Idan began, not hiding his thoughts. He talked about the abilities of the "Perfect Doppelgangers" and did not forget to ntion that both of them should co up with a rule for Ned and Bera.
"Yes, you’re right, Dan, we really need to work out the rules," Arabel agreed with Idan’s suggestion.
Arabel had almost the sa concerns as Idan. She couldn’t imagine how Ned, assuming the image of so beauty, would try to attract Idan’s attention. Especially if he takes the form of people close and familiar to her. Such an act could unknowingly ruin Idan’s and her opinion of them. Even imagining it made her feel bad.
As always, Sierra’s disguise was impeccable, and the couple returned to their luxurious hotel room without difficulty.
It was already close to morning, but the sunrise was not yet visible.
"Just in ti," Idan said with a smile, barely managing to enter his room when he received a response from Rizzy about the desire to drink his blood.
"Rizzy?" Arabel asked when she heard his words. Idan nodded and imdiately summoned the little baby.
"May I?" — Arabel asked hopefully, looking at Idan with pleading in her eyes.
"Of course. Here, try it." Idan pulled Rizzy towards Arabel, ignoring the way the little girl was searching for his finger.
Arabel gently touched Rizzy before picking her up, and the baby did not miss this mont. She caught Arabel’s finger, sniffed it, and her eyes lit up. Without hesitating for a second, she bit and began to greedily drink Arabel’s blood.
Delighted that Rizzy imdiately started drinking her blood and did not refuse the treat, Arabel carefully took her from Idan’s hands and began to feed her under his gaze.
"Heh, heh, heh." For so reason, since the last ti, Arabel had begun to like Rizzy very much, and she couldn’t help but smile as she looked at the baby, who was greedily drinking her blood.
"Take care of her, and I’ll go and tidy myself up," Idan said, having thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful picture he was watching in front of him.
"Good, — Arabel agreed happily.
"Ned, you go get so rest too," Idan added, summoning Ned back to his star.
Leaving Arabel with Rizzy in his arms, Idan quickly took a shower and changed his clothes. When he ca out of the bathroom, he saw that Arabel was still infatuated with Rizzy, and decided to cook sothing light for a snack.
Arabel couldn’t get enough of looking after Rizzy and didn’t notice how ti flew by. Rizzy got tired and started dozing in her arms.
"Dan..." she called out to Idan through a ntal connection, and only then did she discover that he had already washed himself, changed his clothes, and was almost done cooking.
"Is she asleep?" asked Idan, looking up from his cooking.
"Yes," Arabel replied.
"Hold her a little longer. As soon as I’m done, I’ll pick her up," Idan asked, returning to his business.
"Okay, take your ti," Arabel agreed, and gently cradling Rizzy, she began to whisper sothing gentle to her.
After finishing cooking, Idan picked up Rizzy and returned her back to the Star. Arabel hurried to the bathroom to clean up.
Soon she ca out of the bathroom, drying her long wet hair and wearing a bathrobe. Seeing her in a new image, Idan was a little confused and couldn’t look away. Arabel noticed his attention and smiled with satisfaction.
When she ca to the table and saw what Idan had prepared, she looked at him and happily sat down opposite.
Enjoying each other’s company, they ate leisurely and decided to spend the rest of the ti in complete relaxation before rolling back the ability. Without thinking about anything, they just enjoyed the mont watching movies on the big screen.
To their surprise, they hadn’t watched a movie in a long ti and enjoyed it imnsely.
Idan and Arabel were so engrossed in watching the movie that they didn’t notice the sun had risen.
During the next movie, Idan suddenly rembered that he had promised to bring Eulalia and the others so things from their world.
"Maybe we should go shopping before we leave? For the Master and the others?" suggested Idan, and Arabel’s eyes lit up at the idea.
"Why not?" she agreed.
As soon as the movie ended, they quickly cleaned themselves up, put on masks and, holding hands, left the hotel under the gaze of the staff.
After leaving the hotel and finding a secluded alley, they changed their appearance again to avoid possible problems. Idan used his Ethan Goldwing persona when he was defending the city, and many already knew him by sight.
After changing their appearance and so details of their clothes, they were relieved to go in search of working stores. Despite yesterday’s wave of beasts that threatened to destroy the city, so of the shops were already open.
Idan provided a selection of items for Arebel to buy, and he only accompanied her, from ti to ti sharing his opinion. The couple had enough money, so they had no problem making a choice. They bought everything that they thought others might like, and not even one copy at a ti, but several at once, without worrying about whether it would fit in their storage.
Towards the end of their walk, they received a notification from the System:
[Hosts, teleportation is available]
Without wasting any ti, they both agreed, and 10 minutes later, Idan and Arabel, who had just returned from Limbo yesterday, teleported back again.
