"Nessa do y~you understand what you're saying?" My eyes widened in shock as I realized what she was suggesting.

"Yes but as long as keep my chastity then it's worth it" Nessa blushed even more to the point her long hears turned pink and a look of shame filled her beautiful face.

My body was stiff and my heart seemed numb despite how hard it was pounding. I just couldn't believe that the innocent and sweet elf who blushed whenever we held hands was suggesting something so vulgar.

"I want to save my chasity.." Her words woke me up once more as she looked to the side tightening her grip around my hand.

"For someone special" My heart started to pound as I saw her cheeks flush red while she glanced at me from the side of her eye.

"I…understand" I hesitated filling warmth spreading through my body before finally speaking.

"But" I spoke drawing her attention trying to find the right words.

"I have to be there with you" My words were not only a shock to myself but also to Nessa whose eyes went wide.

"Y~you want to….watch?" Her face became even more red while she wore a shy yet shameful expression.

"N~no I just went to make sure your safe and comfortable" I quickly spoke feeling my own cheeks heat up while trying to avoid Nessa's gaze.

"Okay…we'll do it together" Nessa spoke softly and looked at me with a gaze as if she realized why I was saying such a thing.

'I have to be strong' I couldn't allow the sweet and innocent Nessa to go through such a thing alone.

"Thank you!" Soon a bright smile came to Nessa's face and I couldn't react as she quickly leaned down and pushed her face into my neck.

"I'll become someone you can lean on" Her hands unlatched from mine wrapping around me while the sweet scent of vanilla filled my nose.

'You already are' I didn't say the words out loud and just wrapped my arms around her as well trying to ignore her soft and large breasts that pressed against my chest.

My mind was a racing mess with one half telling me something and the other saying something different. It felt disgusting to even think such a thing and yet I was secretly glad that Nessa was going to go another path then Ella and the duchess, I tried not to think such a thing as I hugged her tighter enjoying her sweet scent.

Mana was an incredible thing

Every living being had at least a small amount of mana in their bodies from humans and elf's all the way animals and even insects. It was something even a commoner like me learned during the classes that took place in our village, And yet I only understand how satisfying and addictive mana truly was after I created my core and started training with the duchess.

'I'll hit the next level soon' I took deep breath's feeling the warmth of my mana traveling through my channels.

I sat completely still with my legs crossed and my hands on top of them, The room was peacefully silent with only a small candle sitting on the nightstand illuminating my surroundings.

'How far can I go' I sighed slowly opening my eyes as I looked down at my hands with a complicated expression.

The truth was that I used to hate meditating with a passion to the point that the duchess had to watch over me to make sure I was listening to my instructors. It was only recently that I had started to realize just how calming and enjoyable it could be to just clear your mind of all burdens and let loose.

'I've been meditating a lot recently' With my mind still digesting what had happened so far I seemed to have found solace escaping my own head.

'It's time' I titled my head looking at the celling with deep gaze letting all my emotions show before I closed my eyes.

"I'm the hero" I opened them and put a small smile on my face even if it was fake as I put my hands on the floor and pushed my self up.

'Let's go' I grabbed a regular black shirt and pulled it on hiding my toned body that I had started to grown proud of.

It had been four days since Nessa had came to my room and our uncomfortable conversation. After that night I waited before contacting Leon hoping deep in my body that Nessa would change her mind but after realizing she wouldn't I had set up the meeting despite every inch of my body being unwilling.

My mind was blank and I didn't speak anymore as I looked back at my small room one last time before opening my door and shutting it behind me. Walking down the hallway I glanced at Ella's and the Duchesses doors who were probably sound asleep. It was Nessa's request not to inform them of her decision yet wanting to surprise them after with her newfound boost in strength.

My legs took me to a room far down the hallway and I paused standing still not moving even an inch. It wasn't until I noticed that the door was cracked did I finally change my expression and narrow my eyes, Nessa had told me that she would meet me here but the open door made me wonder if she had showed up faster then I anticipated.
