Chapter 22: Lance Gives Me a Hug

What's going on in his mind now?

She bore the brunt of his sudden appetite and still didn't know what triggered it.

"Oh, I thought a taste of my lips could increase your skills."

"Who told you that?"

"You slept around with the Guardians. With their mediocre arts, you still managed to close the barrier over the capital city. That's the power you accumulated from the times you spent in that esoteric practice, right?"

"Hmph."

It's weird. Why does System not blink to increase any intimacy bar? System?

No response.

"Look at you, being grumpy at me for merely stating a fact."

Have you been in a situation where you're actually not angry, but because the other person teases you so, you become angry eventually? That's my situation now, System.

"Lord Hua!"

"What? Or does it mean you need more from me to defeat me? Do we need to do it here, in front of the pyramid?"
