Huu…!
Max exhaled and opened his eyes. His Mana core was almost fully consolidated, and only some tiny improvements were needed.
‘I should be able to increase my Mana to the peak two-star realm before going on the mission.’ He thought, excited.
Creak~
Just as he was finished, the door was opened, and a beautiful figure covered in sweat appeared.
Shua!
Max appeared beside her and supported her. “Are you okay?” He asked worriedly.
“Hehe, I’m okay. I just fought many fights continuously and exhausted all of my stamina.” Anna giggled softly.
“Okay. Let me help you to the bed.” Max said and was about to pick her up.
Whoosh!
“No, I’m too sweaty right now. So, I’ll take a bath first.” Anna dodged and hurriedly said as her cheeks turned a faint crimson due to embarrassment.
Before Max could say anything, she had gone toward the bathroom.
Seeing this, Max shook his head and smiled.
He then lay on the bed and closed his eyes to rest for a while as he was also a bit tired due to cultivating for so many hours in a row.
…
After a while, Anna came out in a clean set of white clothes. Her golden hair was slightly damp. Noticing this, Max opened his eyes and stared at her without blinking.
Anna saw this, and her face started becoming red, and her heart thumped louder and faster.
“W-What are you looking at?” She asked as her voice stuttered.
“You, of course.” Max smiled.
“You… Humph!” Anna became embarrassed and pouted cutely.
Thump!
Max also felt his heart thump for a second, and he almost couldn’t control himself.
Right now, Anna looked like an innocent and beautiful angel in that white dress that was very unsuccessful in hiding her beautiful curves, and that slightly pouting expression was fatal.
Anna seemed to feel the change in the air around him. She panicked and quickly said, “I-I’ll prepare food. You w-wait there.”
Phew!
Max took a deep breath and calmed down. He could feel that his resistance toward her was becoming weak by the day.
He stood up and walked toward the door while saying, “Rest for a while before making the food. There’s still time until dinner. I’m going out for a while.”
“Oh? Okay. Come back quickly.” Anna dazedly responded.
After he had gone out, her body seemed to become soft, and she powerlessly laid on the bed, murmuring, “Why am I being like this in front of him? Why does my heart race like that?”
She didn’t seem to understand what was going on with her. She only knew that her heart rate would speed up when he looked at her with that somewhat different look in his eyes.
Thinking this and remembering how he kissed her before the outing, her eyes widened as she suddenly exclaimed in her heart, ‘Don’t tell me h-he likes me as a… a woman.’
As this thought appeared in her mind, she couldn’t calm down at all, and her heart and mind had become restless.
A lot of different kinds of emotions surged at the same time, making her heart a complete mess. However, unknown to her, a happy smile had formed on her face.
…
Max walked out and took deep breaths of the fresh air to calm his mind.
Although he wanted Anna to be his woman, he didn’t want to do something due to lust that he might regret for life.
After all, Anna was special and wasn’t like Belen and others whose feelings weren’t of his concern when he first made a move on them.
While lost in his thoughts, he walked toward where Rima and others lived.
‘She should be back by now.’ Max thought and knocked on Rima’s dorm room.
Knock! Knock!
Creak!
Just as he knocked, the door opened, and before he could react, he was pulled inside the room, and the door was shut right after.
All this happened in just an instant, and this left him dumbfounded. If he hadn’t smelt Rima’s intoxicating fragrance and hadn’t felt the familiar sensation of her body, he might have thought that he was being attacked.
As he opened his mouth to speak, his lips were sealed by a pair of soft and delicious lips as her hands tightly held his head so that he won’t move his head away.
“Mm…” Seeing this, Max threw away the thought of speaking, wrapped his hands around her curvy back, and started earnestly responding to her kisses.
Soon their tongues intertwined and started fighting for dominance without any result. All of a sudden, Max’s hand went down her back and tightly cupped her plump ass.
Mm~
Rima’s focus was momentarily diverted, and Max’s tongue became dominant in this short moment. He then kissed and sucked her juicy tongue and lips however he liked.
After more than ten minutes, Rima was out of breath. Noticing this, Max reluctantly stopped kissing her.
“Huff… huff…”
Rima moved her head back slightly, but her body remained glued to his, and her hands circling his neck as she heaved deep breaths.
She had a blissful expression as she looked into his eyes. She pouted slightly and said in a complaining tone, “Humph… you finally remembered me.”
Hearing this, Max smiled wryly and said, “I did come to find you in the morning, but you were out.” He then frowned, “But how did you know it was me and not someone else?”
He hadn’t made any sound and had noticed that she also hadn’t looked at him before pulling him inside.
“Well, I’m not sure why but somehow, I can feel your presence if you are within fifty meters from me.” She said in a confused tone.
She hurriedly added, thinking that he might not believe her, “I’m not the only one. Belen and Leticia can feel this too.”
Hearing this, Max frowned and thought, ‘Is it a side effect of the system?’
His first thought was that this must be because of them using the system indirectly by having sex with him and improving.
