Chapter 390: Allies Of The Past

"Was this your intention from the start? Making me stay behind while my comrades returned to the Eastern Kingdom?"

Emilia had been I were walking together one fateful day, so I asked.

It had been almost two weeks since my allies left for the Eastern Kingdom, and we got news that they would be arriving here today.

That was the reason I even remembered how we separated, in the first place.

"Maybe…" Emilia smiled, and then licked her lips in a dangerously seductive way.

My crotch tingled, and the memory of the kiss we shared the previous night appeared in my head.

'Nngh!' I fought to regain control.

Emilia was a great manipulator of emotions, far more skilled than me.

I wasn't even in her league.

We kept discussing as we awaited the arrival of our comrades, holding hands every step of the way.

Fun, casual moments like these soon became a rarity as time went on.

After all, thanks to being sheltered by the Elf Kingdom, I was able to escape all the horrid hardships of the war.
