"That bikini really suits you," Dorian said, blushing slightly as he admired Valeria in her blue swimsuit. Her athletic figure was perfectly highlighted, with a toned, warrior's physique—defined abs, strong legs, and arms that reflected her strength.
"Thank you," Valeria replied as she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and glanced downward shyly.
"It was my first time on a large battlefield, and I was pretty nervous. Thank you for helping me yesterday," Valeria admitted.
Dorian nodded. "It's normal to feel that way at first, but you get used to it over time. Honestly, I think you did great—you seemed to gain confidence with every passing minute."
"Heh, you sound like an old man advising a kid. But I was comfortable because you were there, helping me," Valeria replied with a warm smile.
Dorian blushed slightly but kept his composure. "Anytime you need help, I'll be there!"
