"How tiresome," Garen got up and walked to Kong Xinxue.

Swoos.h.!.+

The eye-opening movement of this woman seemed to have some sort of a sound effect.

Her sense of alert was strong, startling Garen the moment he went near her.

Garen understood that everyone was focused on Yuria because he was the actual, main character. He had heard Nine-Tailed Fox mentioned once before. Even though it was not mentioned in detail but he knew more or less of it. The entire plot revolved around Yuria so following up on his movements was what they had to do.

Currently, Yuria has yet to awaken the ability that should be done so. It may be the effect brought about by them as transmigrators, hence they would have to make up for this.

And since Yuria discovered by chance the energy that Garen was looking for to help him grow strong, Garen went with the flow and agreed to it. 

"How is it?" He asked gently in the darkness.

"Quite alright. Seemed to have come to a realization," Kong Xinxue nodded and stretched her arm out to tidy her long hair. Her fiery red, long mane emitted a dark red glow under the moonlight. Paired with her bright eyes and alluring body figure, it boasted a sort of temptation filled with mystery and purity. 

"I heard from Nine-Tailed Fox that no matter how she tempted you, you were still adamant to choose me?" Kong Xinxue said calmly. "Is it true?"

"What do you think?" Garen replied rhetorically and smiled.

"I think it's very possible so I'm here to ask you," said Kong Xinxue. She had one arm akimbo as she continued. "Honestly speaking, I was really, really satisfied with my original brother, Kong Xiaofei. Too bad I found at the end it's been changed to you. Can you understand that contradicting feeling of dissatisfaction yet understanding?"

"I understand. Everyone's the same. The original Kong Xiaofei must have the same revelation of you occupying Kong Xinxue's body," Garen nodded.

"Yes," Kong Xinxue nodded. "That's why I probed into your att.i.tude. I did not think you were the gentle kind, and without realizing it myself, I have fallen deeply for you. I enjoy teasing you, watching your every smile, every gesture. Oh, right, it's not suitable to use every smile here. Of course, you could comprehend the sort of person I am. It's not in my nature to fall for a maniac but it is in my instinct to do so. It was when I found out about your perverted attribute, that I fell in love with you."

"..."

"Do you believe what I just said?"

"I don't..."

"I don't believe myself too actually. I'm only prying into your perverted side, that's all," Kong Xinxue's revealed her true personality again. "I thought that with the both of us alone in such a dangerous environment, all you had to do was make a move and a weak young lady like me wouldn't be able to fend off from being pushed to the gra.s.s and forced to ** and **. I honestly thought you'll get all riled up to take action but now it seems like you are a safe, harmless being. I am relieved, but also saddened by the defiance."

"So, are you saying this because you want me to do it, or you don't want me to do so?" Garen laughed. "To push you down on the gra.s.s, rip off your clothes and underwear before I ** you violently with my **, giving you absolute pain and pleasure. I feel that this is not a bad idea after all."

"What a vile nature. See, it's coming out..." Kong Xinxue made a tsk sound, took two steps backward and stared at Garen intently.

"Wasn't it you who tempted me? Xiao Xuexue..."

Swoos.h.!.+

Garen lurched forward suddenly and with one arm, grabbed Kong Xinxue by the waist.

It was obvious she went back and changed into a tight, black miniskirt and black, long stockings over her long, slender legs. She was taken aback by Garen's sudden movement and turned to run but was seized by her waist.

Ah.

Before her scream could make its way out, Garen covered her mouth with his other hand. Her white, t-s.h.i.+rt tightened with the movement, emphasizing the outline of her bountiful bosoms, making her more alluring under the moonlight.

Sniff...

Garen took a big whiff of her hair.

"You smell so good…" After coming to this world and deciding to completely relax here, he suddenly realized many of his suppressed urges were being aroused more and more. 

"What are you up to?" Kong Xinxue was tense. She might have a foul mouth and was constantly using filthy language, but it is the first time for her to have a guy to be in such close, physical contact with her. As Garen's muscular body hugged her, she was overpowered by the smell of his musky pheromone.

"What do you think I'm going to do?" Garen laughed. "Weren't you the one who told me that during the dead of night beneath the raven moon, I should push you onto the gra.s.s and do ** and ** to you? You are powerless to resist anyway," he leaned in and whispered into Kong Xinxue's ear.

"Shouldn't this kind of thing...be of mutual consent?" Kong Xinxue's body stiffened. "A pervert like you would act so common? Even before you are able to think of a more extreme and perverted act, such a common way is definitely an insult to your n.o.ble ident.i.ty!" She started to give in...

"Still acting tough?" Garen's wormed his finger into her mouth, stirring and playing with her silky saliva, emitting a squis.h.i.+ng sound.

"You uh..." Kong Xinxue could not say anything anymore.

"Relax," Garen beamed. His other arm moved up slowly, viciously grabbing her protruding bosoms made apparent by her tight s.h.i.+rt.

"Aiyaya... Am I seeing something that I'm not supposed to?" Suddenly, a listless, female voice came from the side of the forest.

It was Nine-Tailed Fox.

She was dressed in a tight, white leather suit, walking slowly out from deep within the forest.

Garen's actions halted, and he released Kong Xinxue gently.

"Did you record it?" He asked, smiling. "I displayed cla.s.sic moves which I thought of earlier!"

Nine-Tailed Fox smiled sneakily and devilishly and gave a thumbs up.

"Nice posture!!"

At the side, Kong Xinxue was gasping for breath. She felt sticky with her sweat. Seeing this, she knew she had been schemed by these two.

"You… You adulterous couple!!" She yelled in rage.

"Didn't I say before? No matter an extrovert or introvert, you can be defeated by a woman's body facing this sort of thing," Nine-Tailed Fox laughed with delight. She was truly a fox.

Garen walked over from the other side. Both of them took out a miniature compact camera, turning it on to view the recording while gasping with admiration.

"What are you up to?!" The camera was playing Kong Xinxue's voice. She looked like a poor little girl who was about to be **.

"Alright," Garen held the camera while smirking coldly at Kong Xinxue. "Hand over the remaining negatives. As an exchange, I can hand this to you."

Kong Xinxue had almost calmed down. She stood up.

"Such a despicable tactic..."

"But I am a pervert!" Garen said matter of factly, "shouldn't I resort to despicable tactics?"

"Yes, Garen is known to be the lowly lord. Who asked you to underestimate him? Nine-Tailed Fox exclaimed with her sweet voice.

"..."

"I found it..."

"Out of the blue, Yuria's voice came from afar.

"Oh?"

The trio immediately put away their joking mood and walked out of the dark forest.

From far, they could see Yuria standing alone in the middle of the lake. Half of his body was in the waters, there were groups of black leeches surrounding him.

"Leeches..." The leeches around Yuria suddenly plummeted down like raindrops. Each of them dried up as if something had sucked them dry.

Seeing Yuria's situation, Nine-Tailed Fox was dumbfounded.

"He's that powerful? It looks like he has gained something significant."

"Now onto the next event," Garen strode forward and stood by the lake to watch Yuria.

"Next event?"

******

On an empty field of green gra.s.s was a base surrounded by various monitoring and interference infrastructure.

There were two large dirt colored circles right in the center of the field, looking like two large pits.

Sunlight shone from above as Garen stood silently in the center of one of the pits, with a hand wielding a wooden blade. Dressed plainly in white t-s.h.i.+rt and jeans, his soft red hair fluttered with the wind.

"The main purpose of this training and your mission task is to use the blade in your hands to strike me," Garen looked at Yuria, who was getting into the pit slowly.

"Strike you..." Yuria looked at the wooden blade in his hand. It was a wooden knife over a meter long with a slight curve. It was fine and long. "Does touching your sleeve count?"

"Yes," Garen smiled. He didn't mind him being smarty pants.

He snapped his fingers and Kong Xinxue who was not far away appeared by the pit, gnas.h.i.+ng her teeth. She was holding a timer.

"Now, I will not move and stand here for two hours," Garen dully said. "You will use your sword to touch any areas of my body. It's considered a pa.s.s even if it's my hair."

"Isn't that very easy?" Yuria chuckled. He saw his sister, Yurijie, appearing by the pit. She looked worried.

"Brother, you have not fully recovered..."

"It's alright," Yuria waved his hand. "I'm almost completely healed." He turned to look at Garen. "Brother Saber, shall we begin?"

"Yes," Garen's lips curled. "Anytime."

Yurijie shook her head.

"Brother Saber is underestimating Brother. He could face off such a terrifying skilled guy earlier at the ocean... I hope Brother will be careful and not hurt Brother Saber."

"It's you who are looking down on your Head Minister," Nine-Tailed Fox smiled saying as she stood by the side. "Although I don't know what sort of a cruel battle you have experienced, but...you won't be able to fathom the true greatness of Kong Xiaofei..."

Clang!!

Just as she finished her words, Garen maintained his posture of holding his blade in reverse in the pit as if he never moved.

Yuria, who charged forward towards Garen earlier, was tossed high up and fell on the dirt ground not far away with a bang. His black, training tight suit was full of dirt and stained mustard yellow in color.

Cough cough...

He climbed up and stared at Garen who was still motionless. His earlier relaxed demeanor disappeared without a trace.
