Nineteen minutes after Mikhail and Aika had sex twice, they were both a little breathless and sweaty.
Aika was sitting with her panties back in place, securing Mikhail's seeds inside her, while Mikhail was lying on top of her thighs.
Mikhail ran his finger along Aika's right thigh with his left hand and said, "Lying here, looking at these plump thighs so close and covered in these white stockings, makes me want to do it again."
Aika widened her eyes and flicked Mikhail's head, saying, "No, no, no. If we do it again, I definitely won't be able to handle it."
"Really? I thought you were a strong warrior," Mikhail said, trying to recreate the same situation where he convinced her to have sex without removing her clothes.
Looking at Mikhail with puppy eyes, Aika blushed and said, "No... I don't want you to see me in such a miserable state. Three times is my limit, but we can do it again some other time."
She put her finger to Mikhail's lips, smiled, and gave him a peck on the lips, radiating a joyful glow. "Just know that you can always come to me when you want to do it. But for today, I've reached my limit, and doing it more might drive me crazy."
She started stroking Mikhail's cheeks, maintaining a playful smile. "In the end, it's your fault and that little monster of yours." Aika glanced at Mikhail's groin after saying that.
"Alright... Alright... It's my fault, not yours, for repressing your desires all these years, right, Miss Pervert?" Mikhail said, pinching Aika's nipple, to which she immediately reacted and slapped his forehead.
"Stop it, you monster!"
Aika crossed her arms in front of her breasts, protecting them as she spoke with an embarrassed expression, "You know I'm very sensitive. It's not fair to do that after taking advantage of my body so much."
'Hmm? Did I go too far?' Mikhail thought, concerned, as he looked into Aika's teary eyes.
Mikhail quickly got up and crouched in front of Aika, placing his hands on her face to clean and caress it. "Don't be like that, I didn't mean any harm. I just wanted to continue the playful banter."
Aika's eyes met Mikhail's, and seeing the signs of concern on his face, she smiled and pulled him closer, pressing his face against her breasts.
"Okay, I forgive you, but don't do it again, okay? If you do, you might get into trouble in the future."
"Huh? What do you mean by that?" Mikhail asked.
"What else could it be? You fool? Soon, you'll have to go on a journey, right?" Aika spoke, and at the end of her sentence, a brief sad expression formed on her face but quickly disappeared.
"Yes... But why did you say that? Are the women from other villages going to try to kill me?" Mikhail asked, concerned about this possibility.
'No, that can't be, right? They wouldn't try to kill me, right? They wouldn't be crazy enough for that.'
"Kill? No one would be crazy enough to do that, but ultimately, my dear Mikhail, all they need is for your seeds to be healthy. So don't dare to do whatever you want without thinking, okay? This village is different from the others because it's where you grew up. So, no one can harm you here."
Aika placed her hand on Mikhail's chin, lifting his face, and said, "You met the leader, right? You saw her power, so there are people stronger than her outside. Be careful and come back in one piece for us." Aika gave a gentle smile.
"Hehehe, you shouldn't say those things with a smile," Mikhail said with a trembling voice, thinking about how the hell he's going to fulfill requirements like capturing all the imperial dragons.
'I urgently need to level up and copy some skills.' This thought kept running through Mikhail's head.
Seeing this happen, Aika put her hand in front of her mouth and said, "I think, in the end, I broke him, not the other way around."
Aika placed both hands on Mikhail's face, pressing his cheeks to make him pout. "Mikhail, listen to me."
"Huh?" Mikhail turned his full attention to Aika. "Wait... What are you doing?"
"Hehehe, just trying to get your attention," Aika released Mikhail's face and said, "Look at me, okay? You don't need to be desperate. Just act like you normally have been so far, but avoid making comments like that. It depends on your partner, so think before you speak, okay? That's all, and everything will be fine."
"And besides, if it's about the confrontation ritual, you don't need to be so desperate. When you were nine, you were already amazing, keeping up with the leader's daughter, which is impressive," Aika concluded, flicking Mikhail's nose.
"And another thing, your fight with Praia is coming up, right? Are you excited for it?"
Mikhail sighed, moving his head on Aika's chest and turning to the side with a smile. He said, "Yes, I can't wait to see how she is. And you're right, I shouldn't be so paranoid right from the start. Thanks for letting me know, Aika."
"That's right, my boy. You will accomplish great things in the future, and you've already worked hard during all these years. So just relax and enjoy your little paradise," Aika spoke, her voice seeming to completely envelop Mikhail as if he were lying in a cozy bed.
But after a few seconds, breaking his moment of rest, the system popped up, rubbing its interface on Mikhail's face.
'Okay, okay, what do you want that's so important?'
[Your first target has returned to the village]
As soon as Mikhail saw this message, a second system window appeared, showing a map of the village with a small red dot labeled ' Praia ' entering the village.
'So, you're back. It's been so long since I last saw you. I wonder how you've become. I hope you've grown into a great woman.'
