章 371: To the Fortress

Since the place was inappropriate, we didn't get lost too much in passion. As soon as we felt the surrounding energy calming down due to the successful closing of the Portal, I lifted my body off Irja and helped her get up.

However, looking at her mesmerized expression from what happened between us within these few minutes, I couldn't help but tease her again which earned me another bite mark on my neck.

Well, it's worth it anyway. We now had one more memory to remember by. Although we didn't go all the way, I properly conveyed my gratitude for her. With my time in the Dark World, I thought I would go home alone just like how it was when I impulsively jumped to the Portal. But here she was, leaving behind even those she spent years with in the same dark prison.

My way of conveying my gratitude might've been somewhat unconventional, nonetheless, I conveyed it properly through it and she accepted it.
