Badr changed into a clean yukata and came to the courtyard feeling refreshed.
It was 9 PM, and night had fallen. Badr sat in the pavilion in the courtyard, gazing at the full moon hanging in the sky above. It was the night of the full moon, and the moonlight was quite beautiful.
Badr stretched lazily, propping his legs up on the stone bench. His posture was relaxed, exuding an air of carefree languidness. It seemed that one's state of mind could indeed influence their demeanor. After resolving Rias troubles, his stress had lessened considerably. His mood was particularly light and pleasant, so his whole being appeared more relaxed.
This rare moment of peace and tranquility...
A fragrant breeze wafted from behind as Rias emerged, having finished her bath. She wore a purple semi-transparent nightgown, light and gauzy. Her fiery red hair was still damp. She approached, blow-drying her hair.
Badr's gaze swept over Rias alluring figure a few times. Rias smiled confidently and did a little twirl.
"Do I look nice?" she asked.
"You look beautiful," Badr replied with a smile. He sat up a bit straighter and took the hair dryer from Rias. She sat down beside him.
As he dried Rias vibrant red hair, he could smell the refreshing fragrance emanating from it. The strands of hair scattered, revealing Rias snow-white back. Her pristine skin gleamed like jade in the moonlight, with a few water droplets still adorning it.
Long lanterns burned under the pavilion's lamp shades, casting a warm yellow glow that made the castle courtyard seem serene.
Devils have excellent night vision, so these lights were mainly for ambiance...
When her hair was dry and the battery conveniently ran out, Badr placed the hair dryer on the stone table.
Rias leaned closer, nestling into Badr's embrace. He naturally wrapped his arm around her waist. They reclined together on the pavilion's stone chair, perfectly positioned to view the bright moon in the sky.
"This feels so nice. I feel completely relaxed," Rias said, her voice filled with evident joy. "It's like all my burdens have been lifted," she added.
Badr smiled gently and asked, "Did your family and Riser really put that much pressure on you?"
"Yes... To be honest, right now it feels like I'm dreaming," Rias replied, resting in Badr's arms. She continued softly, "That was the Phoenix, you know. The legendary sacred beast of the human realm that governs life. Its tears can heal injuries, and those who drink its blood can achieve immortality. They are truly deathless beings."
"If you keep praising me like this, I might get conceited," Badr said with a light chuckle.
"Hehe, you absolutely deserve to be proud, really. I never imagined you could accomplish something like this. I had resigned myself to fighting Riser to the death..." Rias reclined a bit more, tilting her head to look directly at Badr's face.
Badr laughed, "You really do despise Riser, don't you? He is indeed an unpleasant person - arrogant, disrespectful to women, and a complete playboy. But when it comes to his family and kin...."
"You're defending him... Your heart is too generous. I personally can't see any redeeming qualities in that guy..." Rias replied.
"I'm just stating facts," Badr said with a smile. "Of course, I dislike him too. Just thinking about him being your nominal fiancé irritates me."
Hearing this, Rias couldn't help but laugh. "Did I hear that right? You're jealous?"
"Not at all."
"Really?"
"Really."
Seeing Badr's firm denial, Rias didn't press further. She just smiled and said, "Alright, let's say you're not."
She took Badr's hand, bringing it to her chest, and intertwined their fingers.
"To be honest, I don't particularly hate Riser. I just hate being arranged for. Because I'm a Gremory, no matter where I go, this surname will always cling to me."
Badr tilted his head slightly, seeming to understand.
"This name is both your brilliant halo and your endless pressure."
"Exactly," Rias said, appearing pleased that Badr understood her.
"I take pride in it, but it also stifles me as a person. Everyone knows me as Princess Rias of the Gremory family, but no one sees me as just Rias, the individual. That's why I was happiest during my time living in the human world."
Badr understood but didn't want to comment. From his perspective, Rias troubles seemed like the concerns of the wealthy...
In this world, there are always people scrambling for immense wealth, and there are always those at the top longing to shed their glory and experience an ordinary life. There's no need to debate right or wrong here, no need to despise the former for their love of material things, nor mock the latter for not appreciating their blessings. These are simply the troubles that arise from people in different environments.
Rias leaned into Badr's embrace, seeming quite content.
"I hope to be with someone who doesn't care about the Gremory family and loves me just for being Rias. Whether it's Riser or other nobles, they're all just after the Gremory name."
As Rias spoke, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. In her mind, she recalled Badr's earlier words.
"You were right... I really am just a helpless girl..."
The night breeze gently blew as Rias lay on the stone chair, her head resting on Badr's stomach as he reclined. Her long hair swayed softly in the wind.
Badr gently massaged Rias shoulders as they enjoyed their time alone together.
"Hehe, I've never felt this relaxed before. Since coming to the human world, this is the first time I've felt so at ease, like I don't have to think about anything," Rias mused, enjoying Badr's skillful massage with her eyes closed.
Badr's expression was serene as he carefully kneaded Rias shoulders and neck, showing no signs of impatience, but rather great attentiveness and care.
Hearing Rias reflections, he also smiled and spoke softly:
"In the adult world, apart from gaining weight and losing hair, everything else is quite challenging."
"..."
Rias couldn't help but find it amusing. "That sounds quite realistic."
She raised her hand to gently caress Badr's cheek. "I'm glad I met you."
After staring at Badr for a moment, she suddenly sat up and straddled him.
With her hands on the young man's shoulders, Rias leaned in and kissed him.
After a while, she reluctantly pulled away.
"That's your reward," she said.
"Are you rewarding me or yourself?" Badr asked jokingly.
His smiling expression made Rias feel a bit shy. She laughed softly, "Well, well, you dare to talk back to me now."
Badr's face wore a gentle smile as his hands rested lightly on Rias fair legs.
"Dressed so beautifully, it's only natural to want to admire you," he said.
"..."
Rias suddenly understood his meaning.
Without a trace of shyness, she smiled and said softly:
"Are you ready to take things further? It's okay, you know. I'm willing to do anything you like."
Badr looked around.
"Here or back in the room?" he asked.
"Whatever you prefer," she replied.
"Then let's go back to the room. I might get embarrassed out here," Badr said seriously, making Rias laugh.
"You? Embarrassed? I haven't noticed," she teased.
"I'm worried the moon might hide shyly behind the clouds, and the stars might blink bashfully," he replied.
Rias: "...??"
...That was quite a cold joke.
"Hehe, you really know how to ruin the mood," she said, caught between laughter and exasperation.
Badr stood up, simultaneously lifting Rias, who was still sitting on him, by supporting her legs.
"Let's go back to the room," he said.
Rias wrapped her arms around the young man's neck and her long legs around his waist, clinging to Badr entirely.
They arrived at Rias luxurious bedroom, where an enormous soft bed dominated the spacious room. It looked like it could easily accommodate ten people, let alone two...
Badr flicked his wrist, and the semi-transparent purple silk nightgown flew off, leaving Rias exposed under the soft moonlight. He pulled her closer, their bodies pressed together, and their lips met in a deep, passionate kiss. The heat between them intensified as Badr's hands roamed over her body, exploring every inch of her smooth, warm skin.
His lips trailed down her neck, leaving a trail of gentle kisses before finding her breasts. He took one into his mouth, sucking and teasing her nipple, eliciting a soft moan from Rias. Her fingers tangled in his hair, pulling him closer as the pleasure built within her.
Badr's touch was tender yet firm, his every movement filled with a deep desire to make her feel loved and cherished. He laid her down on the soft bed, his eyes locking with hers, filled with both affection and longing.
He kissed her again, their lips moving together with a rhythm that was both slow and passionate, savoring every moment of their connection. As they lost themselves in each other, Badr positioned himself over Rias, his body aligned with hers.
With a gentle yet deliberate thrust, he entered her, taking her virginity. Rias gasped, her body tensing at the new sensation, but Badr held her close, whispering soothing words in her ear as he moved within her. The initial discomfort quickly gave way to a wave of pleasure that washed over them both.
Their bodies moved in harmony, each thrust deepening the bond between them. Rias clung to Badr, her nails digging into his back as the intensity of their lovemaking grew. The room was filled with the sounds of their shared passion, the rhythmic beating of their hearts, and the soft moans that escaped their lips.
Time seemed to stand still as they continued to make love, their connection growing stronger with each passing moment. Badr's movements became more deliberate, his pace quickening as he brought them both closer to the edge.
Finally, they reached the peak together, their bodies trembling in unison as they were overwhelmed by a wave of ecstasy. Badr held Rias tightly, their breaths coming in ragged gasps as they rode out the aftershocks of their shared climax.
In the quiet that followed, Badr gently kissed Rias forehead, his arms still wrapped around her. She looked up at him, her eyes filled with love and contentment. No words were needed; the bond they had just formed spoke volumes.
...
The night passed.
Badr woke up early.
Beside him, Rias was still sleeping soundly. She was using the young man's arm as a pillow, a satisfied smile on her face as she slept deeply.
Looking at the bed, the once-tidy sheets were now in complete disarray.
Last night with Rias had indeed been quite intense...
Badr carefully extracted his arm and sat up, stretching as he prepared to get up for his morning exercise.
Although the pressure from Riser's side was gone, he hadn't let himself relax. His daily training couldn't be neglected; in fact, as his strength increased, the intensity of his training needed to increase as well.
However, despite his caution, Rias still woke up.
"Badr, you're up so early?" she asked.
"Mm, sorry for waking you."
"Hehe, it's fine," she said.
She sat up as well, the smooth silk sheets sliding off her body.
Badr glanced sideways and noticed that Rias fair skin was adorned with many small marks, scattered around her waist but mainly concentrated on her chest.
All were his handiwork from the previous night...
