Aurora looked at the clock and saw that it was already afternoon. No wonder she was so hungry. She hadn't eaten anything since the morning. Unsure she'd find anything there, Aurora went to the dining room. Luckily for her, there was still food on the table. Mere seconds after she'd taken a seat, Juna appeared as if summoned.
"My lady, shall I heat up some food for you? I'm afraid it's already gone cold," Juna asked as she stood beside Aurora.
"No, it's fine. I can eat it cold. I'm just glad you haven't cleaned it up yet," Aurora replied.
"Members of the sect often cannot eat at the designated time, so we keep the food here until shortly before the next meal. But my lady, are you sure I should not heat the soup at least? It is very delicious but best enjoyed warm," Juna said. She spoke in a very refined manner, which was a bit jarring to Aurora. She'd grown up in a poor village, and even at her old sect, she didn't have personal servants. She'd lived in a dorm, albeit every inner sect dorm room was more like an apartment. Still, there had only been the servants assigned to the entire dormitory there. And they were much more like any ordinary commoner.
On the other hand, the servants of the Blossoming Rose sect were highly educated in their craft. Juna and the others were always exceedingly respectful to Aurora and Koren. During the last night Aurora spent with Koren, they had been nowhere to be seen, keeping to the shadows, so to speak.
"Well, if that's your recommendation, Juna, I'll have a bowl. But you don't need to bother with anything else," Aurora said.
"Of course, my lady. It will be only a moment," Juna said. She grabbed a bowl and filled it with soup before swiftly leaving the area. Mere minutes later, she returned with a steaming hot bowl of soup. It was a cream soup, and the smell of it made Aurora salivate. After spending a while enjoying her meal in silence, another familiar face appeared.
"There you are. I saw you had left your room, so I imagined this would be the most likely place to find you," Koren said as he took a seat next to Aurora.
"Girl's gotta eat," Aurora replied absentmindedly.
"You were cultivating, right? Did you have any success?" Koren asked. Aurora was a bit touched that he cared enough to ask her that.
"Yeah, I broke through two levels. I'm at the sixth level now," Aurora replied between mouthfuls.
"Sure. You don't have to be sarcastic about it," Koren snarked.
"I'm not. It's the whole losing my virginity thing. It gave me a huge boost. You can't imagine how amazing it was, cultivating at that speed. It's too bad you were so quick about having your first time. Imagine how strong you would be now if you just kept it in your pants? Speaking of, how strong are you, exactly? I know next to nothing about you," Aurora asked.
"How strong, you say. Well, I'm a martial specialist like you, and I'm at the seventh level. But I'm six years older than you, so I'm not sure how impressive that is," Koren explained.
"You're twenty-four? Then you must have spent, like, eight years in the sect, right? How come you weren't taken in the last sect selections?" Aurora asked.
"Ugh, don't remind me. I broke a rule and was sent on a mandatory mission outside the sect, so I missed it," Koren said with a sigh.
"Oh, sorry. But you're a martial cultivator? Then we should spar. See who has the upper hand," Aurora said, excited at the possibility of having a good sparring partner nearby. Back in the Mount Northpeak Sect, Aurora'd only had the chance to spar in class.
"I seem to remember you denying a certain service to me because it didn't benefit you, though. So tell me, Aurora, how exactly would our sparring be worth it to me? The way I see it, I have way more experience, so you might not even be a good enough partner," Koren said, a devious smirk on his lips.
"Well played, Koren, well played. Very well. If, and only if, you prove to be a good sparring partner to me, meaning that you're either my match or stronger than me, you get one free ride per week. Whenever and wherever you want, you can fuck me at your leisure once per week," Aurora said.
"Make that two times, and we have a deal," Koren negotiated.
"Fine. Two sex passes in exchange for regular sparring. And each pass is only worth an hour of my time unless I want to go for longer. So, shall we begin after I'm finished eating?" Aurora asked.
"Sure," Koren responded.
A few minutes later, the two were dressed in their training outfits, standing opposite each other in the training room.
"You ready? I'm not going to pull my punches," Aurora said as she took a fighting stance. Koren chuckled as he raised his hands.
"Come at me. I can't wait to fuck you tonight," Koren said. Aurora tensed up momentarily, then loosened her muscles.
"You asked for it," she said. Aurora leaped forward as if swimming in the air, then kicked off the ground with all her strength. Rushing forward, right into Koren's face, her long leg generated an intense wind as it cut through the air. Koren lifted his arm and caught her foot by his face. He pushed against it, transferring the impact into the ground. The force of her blow shook his arm and blasted his body backward, but he kept a firm hold on her leg, then pushed it into the ground as if he were slamming a door. Her momentum was broken, and she was thrown backward as Koren kicked her in the chest. She landed on the ground, rolled back, and jumped on her feet.
"You pack a mean kick, Aurora. Your thighs are thick and super soft, but I guess there's muscle in there after all," Koren said.
"Thanks, I guess. You've got a mean kick, too. But it's my fault for being overconfident with that flying kick. You won't get such an easy strike again," Aurora said.
With another step of her back leg, she charged in. She started with two swift punches before going into two low spinning kicks. But Koren was skilled in his own right and quickly backed away from the punches and jumped up, dodging the kicks. The moment Aurora stood up again, she had to struggle against a flurry of punches from Koren, but she managed to block or avoid them all.
As the last punch came in, Aurora grabbed his wrist, pulled him in, and did an elbow uppercut. Koren leaned back, but the elbow still graced his lip, cutting it up. Blood leaked from Koren's mouth, but his retaliation was swift and furious. His wrist locked in Aurora's hand, and he turned it around. He took hold of her hand, spun around, twisted his waist, sent Aurora tumbling over his back, and slammed her into the ground. All the breath in Aurora's lungs was forced out as she ended up flat on the floor. She even had to spend several seconds getting back up.
The two shared several rounds of fighting, neither getting the clear upper hand. Sometimes Aurora got a good strike in, and sometimes Koren got the better of her. After a few minutes, Aurora was already starting to sweat.
"This had been fun. But it's time for me to get serious. Prepare yourself," Aurora said. Without waiting for a reply, she did the same jumping kick as in the beginning. She spun in the air and shot her leg at Koren's head. But the kick missed by a large margin. Instead, her other leg pierced out as the first one fell, targeting Koren's face. Koren could tell that it was too far away to hit, so he didn't even move. Which turned out to be the wrong choice.
At first, nothing happened, as Koren watched the kick clearly miss. Then he felt a cold knife-like pain on his cheek, followed by a sharp pain that traveled across his face like a wave and then subsided. It was as if he'd been hit with a metal rod. Looking up from the ground, he could see Aurora staring at him with an expression of triumph. Aurora could create sharp blades of energy or blunt rods. Aurora wore a large smile as she landed on her feet and stared at the fallen Koren.
"Guess there won't be any sex for you, huh?" Aurora taunted, well aware of the man's perverse desires for her. Koren slowly stood up and even had to wipe blood away from his face.
"So you're this advanced? Then I suppose I should go all out, too," Koren said. In a sudden burst of speed, the young man leaped at her, his fist slamming into her gut faster than her eyes could even register. She puked right there as she collapsed into a heap on the floor. The pain was too much for her to handle. She knew that if he hit her again before she had time to recover and think straight, it would be all over. She couldn't take another one of those. Although to be fair, she had been caught off guard. If she had been ready for it, she wouldn't have ended up like this. But she could still clearly tell that Koren was superior to her. It wouldn't take too long for him to defeat her.
"You beat me," Aurora mumbled. She knew this meant Koren could fuck her whenever he wanted, twice a week, but her defeat was clear, and she'd just have to accept that.
"Don't feel bad. I'm at a higher cultivation stage and have several years on you. And liver punches are a real bitch. Here, get up," Koren said, handing Aurora his hand. Aurora took it, and Koren helped her stand. She didn't let go of him, though, using Koren as support.
"I don't feel bad about it. It just really, really hurts. Next time, please don't go for the liver. That was a dick move, man," Aurora said.
"Well, you kinda sucker punched me too. See, my nose is bleeding," Koren said, pointing at his bloody face.
"True. I just really wanted to beat you up a bit. It's different," Aurora spoke honestly.
"How about you make it up to me? Since this was my first time beating you in a spar, how about you give me more than just an hour today?" Koren asked.
"Okay. My body is yours for the rest of the day. Fuck me however much you want," Aurora replied, her bored tone not showing how much she was actually in the mood.
"Great. Then we'll begin right now. I'll fuck you until I cum on your face, then I'll fuck you in the shower, then in the hot springs, and I guess we'll see where it goes from there," Koren said as he pulled Aurora's very short shorts down. But Aurora stopped him.
"No, not yet. I still need some time to recover from that punch of yours. Just wait a few minutes, then you can do whatever you want to me, even cum on my face if that's what you really want," Aurora said.
Aurora spent a few minutes lying on the floor, recovering her energy. And then, the debauchery started. Much like the day before, Aurora was ravaged for hours in just about every room in the house.
