Chapter 983 273: Starry Promise Under the Moon, Elanna’s Confession, and the Choice of Destiny (10K)_4
It might even make some people mistakenly think that he was already scared and had given up resisting.
Such behavior would not ensure his safety; instead, it would make those hidden enemies even more rampant, a result Kael absolutely could not tolerate.
…
It was night.
Under the lanterns of the Golden City, the two hide in a relatively deserted area, quietly looking up at the stars in the sky.
Kael held a lantern, the candlelight flickering within, its gentle glow casting on his and Elanna's faces, masking half the face with the shy moonlight.
"Speaking of which, I originally planned to hide in my room and sleep through the entire night but hearing that you were coming, I couldn't sleep after all."
Kael said, smiling.
Elanna turned to look at his face, her gaze seemingly carrying something indescribable, and after a moment, she smiled and said:
"Actually, going back to rest in the room isn't impossible, but I think considering how busy you've been lately, you probably can't truly rest."
Kael chuckled.
Indeed, that's right. After all, he had already tasted forbidden fruit with Elanna, and in this era with not many entertainment activities, that night awaiting him would probably not be spent resting well on the couch but rather trying to see if there's an opportunity to pull off a big transformation, right?
After all…
The taste of his beautiful knight girl was indeed nice.
For a moment, he thought of the charming knight girl that night, teasingly saying, "To be honest, my knight girl isn't repulsed by those things."
Elanna's face flushed, her hand gripping Kael's arm slightly stiffened.
Inexplicably, her eyebrows twitched as she recalled the night they embraced, the love unintentionally bursting forth from her body, and he could no longer control himself.
When she came to, she only felt her body light, and in a while, it became heavy again, pinned by that annoying Little Incubus.Then not long after... the ceiling started shaking.
Thinking back now, that really was an absurd night.
"It's only you I'm not repulsed by~" she murmured softly.
It seemed like the usual brave and forward attitude of the knight girl staggered at this moment.
She would say no more; she actually quite liked lying in Kael's arms.
Listening to his heartbeat, feeling the warmth of his body spread onto hers, there would always be an illusion of them being closer.
"There's no one here, Kael. It's okay to make some not-so-excessive requests."
Elanna whispered.
The words from Elanna's mouth were so faint they were almost inaudible, yet the thin moonlight spilled down, even bug chirps took on a dreamy hue.
Kael pondered for a moment, then asked softly, "Can I have a lap pillow?"
Elanna froze for a moment, her ears flushed slightly, and mumbled, "Could you change it?"
Kael tilted his head, looking at her saying, "Why? There's nobody here, and it's not excessive."
"Just… suddenly feeling shy. If you don't mind later~ No, absolutely cannot say excessive words! Otherwise~ Otherwise~"
Kael curiously replied instinctively, "Otherwise what will happen?"
"I'll hit you!"
Elanna swung her little fists, lightly tapping on Kael's upper body, yet it looked like venting punches transforming into flirting when they got near Kael.
When she lifted her head again, her eyes were shimmering.
Kael chuckled and said, "Feeling at ease?"
"Hmm, just a little."
Elanna whispered:"Later don't dismiss me…"
"Why would I dismiss?" Kael intentionally showed surprise, "That night, I almost devoured the Little Kitten sprawled on me."
"Ah~ No good, forget about it, lie down if you want to!"
Seeing Kael intentionally avoid directly responding, Elanna felt somewhat at a loss.
After a while, she hesitantly reached out to unfasten part of the half-body armor's restraints.
Perhaps just coming down from the tense border confrontation, she hadn't completely eased her state even now, wearing half armor for quick action tonight with Kael.
Especially for a spell swordsman's key vulnerable point—her long legs were still enveloped in full armor.
This too was an unavoidable choice.
Spell swordsmen, while fast in movement, lack defense power; if they haven't absorbed certain special Transcendent perks, they're even worse off than tough-skinned warriors.
Even when upgraded to a knight with grafting armor, this situation doesn't entirely improve, only slightly compensating for an inherently low disadvantage.
So most of the time to avoid being targeted by enemies, spell swordsmen prefer sacrificing most upper body armor to ensure their swift running long legs aren't harmed, avoiding their largest advantage being crippled.
Elanna was still like this, her feet wrapped in iron armor.
