As the sun rises with birds chirping, the whistle of the wind, and the ray of the everlasting sun, Diana woke up with her surrounding a bit noisier than ever.
She got out of her cave to see what's making everyone noisy first thing in the morning. She saw a human surrounded by her friends, it was Rapier.
Even though her attitude and age are far older than what you think, she still acts like a child sometimes especially in front of Rapier.
In the past couple of years, they're working together, Sometimes she seduces him and when she can't take the embarrassment anymore she'll go full tsundere mode. Their everyday life was full of training and joy.
As Diana is walking towards where he is she kept on thinking how long this would last before they say goodbye to each other once again.
"Diana! Come here quick!" Amiera called her out
"Coming!" she shouted back
While on her way she saw how happy everyone is and thought why would she go through those lonely times when happiness is right in front of her.
"What is it that gets you all excited?", she leaned her face on Amiera shoulder while hugging her from behind.
"Look, Compare that to yesterday and now" she pointed at Rapier juggling the two black balls with his Mana and Qi.
"W-what the-...tell me that's the one I gave him yesterday right?", Diana couldn't believe what she just saw.
"Yeah, of course, do you think those odd balls grow in a tree?", Amiera replied
Still couldn't believe anything she saw and directly went to Rapier and asked what happened and how he did it.
"How did you do it?", Diana asked while placing her face close up from Rapier's face.
*gulp* Rapier felt a little embarrassed seeing Diana's face up close but he saw her face dead serious about the question so he cleared his funny thoughts.
"ehemm... to be honest just a few minutes I tried to carry just one ball using mana then when I lifted it, it's so light that I feel I can carry both so I ejected my Qi and formed an arm and lifted it, they both feel the same, light, so I tried juggling them and here I am."
While staring at Rapier, Diana thought, "From what I know back then, this type of having two power sources means slower in mastery since they both contradict each other. Is it because he's the King? or because he's an Irregular since back then?"
Diana kept on thinking until she can't find her answer in her head making her head explode.
"Something wrong?", Rapier reached out his hand to see what's wrong with her. He placed his palm on Diana's forehead and leaned his face at the back of his palm and closed his eyes.
Little by Little, Diana is getting hot by the second he touched her forehead with their face up close. "Umu...Umu...You have a fever haven't you?", He slowly opened his eyes and saw the beet-red face of Diana.
"I-Idiot!" she instantly slapped him making Rapier fall down to his butt and Diana immediately ran away while saying, "I hate you!".
Rapier who got stunned by the slap later realized what he had done and now he is in a state of confusion, Amiera walked to him and spoke, "How about chasing your 'wife' and apologize?", with a large grin on her face obviously teasing Rapier.
"Wha- It's not like ahh!", he blushed so much that he is smoking hot right now and quickly ran and chased Diana.
Amiera in her thoughts, "Why do you have to deny the truth so much?", even I feel uncomfortable but also happy for you to be growing up like a normal person now.
He ran and ran in the direction where Diana went, he cried out her name hoping for her to show up until he saw a pond beside it is a large rock where Diana can be seen leaning on her knees sulking while throwing stones at the pond.
"That Idiot even though he's the same person as 'that person' why does it feel like he's a lot more charming now?", she's in the middle of deep thought and about to throw a stone in the pond when suddenly,
Rapier suddenly showed up behind and shook Diana, "kyaaaa~!", she instinctively threw a stone at him in her full power, but luckily for Rapier who spent years dodging Diana's light-speed attacks, he managed to dodge it with no problem.
When she saw Rapier, she instantly felt sorry and apologized, "S-sorry... It seems I'm not in my right mind right now...", she looked down and hopes for an answer from Rapier.
Few minutes passed, and he is still completely silent making Diana spoke once again, "At least say someth-", before Diana finish what she was about to say, Rapier, pushed her down and kissed her, a French kiss at that, and took their time.
Diana pushed him a little, "W-wait, what happened?", Rapier leaned his head on Diana's chest and went silent for a few seconds then finally spoke,
"You know, I met this strange girl in my dreams when I passed out back then..."
"...she's like a living doll and around the same age as me back then when I was first summoned here..."
"she speaks in a totally soothing voice that I can't resist... Also, her immature yet alluring body that I can't take away my eyes off..."
"Apart from all of that... There is this Aura of her that is somewhat similar to the six of you, I can't see it on Sophia but I feel she's also important to me..."
"What do you feel when you take a good look at the aura your seeing?", Diana questioned him while caressing his head still leaned on her chest.
"I feel... Nostalgia...and Sorrow... I don't know what have I done but every time I see your faces I feel... Like crying, it reminds me of something messy I don't know"
"Hmmm... Is that so...since we're like this...wanna do it?", Rapier immediately looked at her if she's messing around with him again, he stared at her a while. Diana thought of this to lift his mood a little thinking that her loved one is sad and that's what she can do for now.
After realizing that she looked serious at what she just said, "If you don't mind me then I'm good", he said while blushing in front of Diana making her giggle, "mm", she nodded.
Rapier was the first one to move, he gave another passionate kiss to Diana while slowly stripping her down. They took their time without care for their surroundings.
On the mountain where the others are, "They've done it now huh?", Amiera said while smirking and licked her lips.
They mated for a couple of hours until it reached nighttime. They both laid down on the giant stone while holding hands and looked at the countless stars above them.
After some silence they talked while still looking at the stars, "Thank you", Rapier was the first one to talk. "For what?", she replied.
"When I came here I honestly thought I'll be alone again but in a different place... I was so scared...But when I met you guys something heavy from my chest was lifted it feels like I've met my long-lost friends, I felt glad that I've met you guys", he said while he held her hand tighter and Diana did the same.
"Then that's good, at first we were scared that you'd reject us but now that you said you're feeling glad when you met us makes me happy when others hear of that too I'm sure they'll be delighted.", Diana said while they look at each other.
Then Diana arranged Rapier's arm, Rapier just looked at her, then she placed her head on Rapier's arm. Rapier's face was like, "You could just tell me, dummy" while giggling.
They both slept while hugging each other. The night passes peacefully with the crickets chirping and its warm breeze.
The Morning sun came, Rapier wakes up seeing Diana's sleeping face first thing in the morning, he just thought of how beautiful she is even when sleeping while fixing her hair.
Then, Diana wakes up right after him, "Good morning", Rapier said with a large smile, "mmm...Good morning", she replied with a smile too.
When Rapier is about to get up, Diana immediately hugged him. "What's the problem?", he asked while still smiling at her but a little bit confused at the same time.
"Let's stay like this for a while," she said while snuggling Rapier. "Rapier's confusion got lifted and said, "Got it", while looking at Diana that looks like a kid that won't let go of her toy.
They took their time. After that, they washed themselves in the pond beside them. Then, returned to their place, near Diana's cave.
After they both reached their destination, and a loud voice greets them, "Ahhh~! What a great yesterday right guys?!", it's Amiera together with the others staring at both of them intensely.
Amiera quickly grabbed Rapier then led him far away from Diana, then while her arm is around Rapier's shoulder, "Sooo...how was yesterday? You did it right?", she said in a smug face.
"Yeah...It was pretty wild you know and she was veeery cute at that too, I can't forget that blushing face of hers", he said while recalling his moments with Diana.
"So what do you think of her?", this time Amiera asked with seriousness from her face which made Rapier getting serious too, and answered immediately.
"All I can say is I love her after all", he said with a gentle smile. Amiera lowered her arm and looked back, "So there you go, he said it himself".
Rapier got confused about who's Amiera was talking to then hurriedly looked at the back, it was Diana blushing and everyone with sparkling eyes, their reaction was from Rapier saying those lines.
Diana looked at him and their eyes met, making them look away in embarrassment. Amiera winked at the others on the back of Diana and they winked back to Amiera.
The Fairies, Eleianore, and Sophia pushed Diana towards Rapier and Amiera did the same to Rapier, until they both bumped into each other.
"Let's have our little marriage, shall we?", Amiera spoke making the couple look confused. The Fairies made a crown of flowers and a pink veil then made Diana wore it.
Then Amiera spoke once again but this time in a manly manner, "Rapier, Do you take Diana as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?"
"I do", Rapier confidently responded making Diana's eyes somewhat teary and about to cry.
Amiera smiled and continued, "Diana, Do you take Rapier as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?".
After she looked at Amiera speaking, She first looked at Rapier, "I do", Diana said in a very gentle voice together with her gentle smile.
"You may now kiss the bride!!!", Amiera shouted throwing her imaginary book away.
Diana immediately grabbed Rapier's cheeks and kissed him, at first Rapier was shocked at how aggressive she is, but then he accepted it.
"Okay! Now back to training you two!", After the couple took their time Amiera shouted once again and the couple realized that Rapier still have some training to do with Diana.
