What If I Was Reborn Into Another World - Chapter 23 The Prophecy
Kuro watched his wife with a contemplating look. The prophecy bother him more than the first one.
He is contemplating to kill the bard and storm into the holy sanctuary. But then, he is operating incognito right now
The jovial look from the bard was irritating enough, but the way the bard look at his wife with a knowing look now that pissed him off. Maybe, he ought to find that bard afterall and interrogate him
He followed his wife to where they had walk to. In the town square, a lot of people crowding the place. She levitate while holding on to him. We saw the green shirt among them, holding a guitar. And just before we reach them, the whole town square flashed with white.
They were blinded by the light for a second, and only to find the bard had gone leaving only his hat after that.
“That’s odd.. isn’t that a holy flash, a transport spell only can be activated by holy one?”
“Then the bard is one of the holy one?”
“Why did he disguise himself as bard?”
“Doesn’t that mean both of the songs were true??!!”
“A goddess!!!!” One by one exclaimed louder than before, not missing a beat to add the excitement within the crowd. Soon they dispersed, with a trail of murmuring whispers. As if they had just witness something epic and they felt like that had gave them some kind of a booster.
“Is it true? That only holy ones can use that?”
Kuro nodded.
“Man what a bummer. I had thought to get a location of that goddess but..” I sigh.
“Forget about that. You’ll have more chances in the future”
I pursed my lips and then shrugs. Well, I guess so. The revenge had to wait then.
“So, about the merchant and adventure guild, do they have it here?” Almost forgetting one of our main objectives to come here.
“They have but its smaller compare to the capital one. But I suggest against it. Don’t register too close where your home is, since if any problem arise in the future, they could easily find out your place.”
“Oh” I didn’t thought about that. Good call, Kuro.
“But we need money”
“I have-” I raised my hand to shut him up.
“No. We aren’t married yet, officially. Plus you helped us enough. I prefer getting my own money with my own ability.”
“And relying me isn’t an ability?” I rolled my eyes.
” but if you insist I guess we can just walk around and search for it.”
This time, instead of flying or sprinting back home, we opt for walking to integrate our new resolved of living a healthy life and of course collecting more loots along the way. I need more stuff to sell, since I got more mouth to feed.
It’s easy for me to depend on my new husband but being too much dependant on other will spoil yourself. And from there, you’ll become more lazy and lazier to do it all by yourself, then it’ll invite dissatisfaction. Dissatisfaction cause frustration. That frustration will lead to burden, burden lead to anger, anger lead to-
“Iiana? You there?” Someone tapped my shoulder lightly.
I snapped out from my reverie and look up.
“Sorry, I was spacing out..”
“Yeah, I can see that. You were out of it like.. six minutes..”
I bowed my head to hide my embarrassment.
“Sorry” I apologised again.
“It’s fine. Maybe my wife thinking how she can attack me tonight at our own room?” Asked Kuro slyly.
My head snapped up and I quickly lunged at him. It really frustrates me how easily he teased me and how that make my face red like a tomato!
I was straddling on top of him, and he look really tempting to ravish right there and then.
“Why should I wait tonight, when obviously I can attack you right now?” I asked, teasing him of course. I dont plan on doing the bunny business with him. Even if he is as tempting as a man could be.
“Uhm, because Our kids are here?” He tried to make his point but sadly
My lips curved upward.
“They are smart like me. They know when they should or shouldn’t interrupt adult business” I said and we can hear retreating footsteps not far from us. I gave him my smug look.
“They’re indeed smart. But you have forgotten something, wifey”
“What?”
In a blink of a second, our position was reversed and now he was straddling me.
“I can easily overpower you, my dear” although I cant see his face well, I am sure that he is flashing his smug look at me back.
Arggghhhh! Annoying!
“Kids! Come back here!”
He leaned forward and look at me straight. From that mask, I can see his green eyes that look like emerald stone. Polished and definitely clear.
“Hmm.. I always want to try this out in open nature”
“W-what you want to try??” I was panicking. I am so not going to do some sexercise out here, especially where anyone can find and see us easily.
Just before, I can push him away he raised his mask a little bit and kissed my lips. It was soft, tender and definitely definitely definitely make my brain not working..
Oh shit. How long since I had my kiss? Eight years? Yeah.. that’s about it. I was the one who teach my ex. He was a bad kisser, sorry to say, but its true. He either smack his teeth on mine, too sloppy and sometimes.. too rash..
But Kuro he make me relaxed and feel like home. I know it sound so, stupid and unreal but that’s how he make me feel. His kisses was deliberately done to make me weak, and crave for more.. no submission, no force.. a choice, he’s giving me a choice to accept him.
I open my mouth, and explore him languidly, uncaring where our limbs end and where its gone too. I was dazed by the surge of hormone inside of me, it came in waves.. pushing me for more.
We stopped at one point and I touched his mask. He had gone tensed and I know he was afraid that I might take it off. Yet, he didn’t fight it. Another choice.. another trust..
He must have his own reason not to show his face. That was what I always thought and I respect that which is why I slid it down in place so he can see me properly.
“Should we just be husband and wife with benefits only?” Because until now, I still couldn’t figure out why he would stay with us. Maybe it was food, maybe he was hiding.. either way, it wont be bad if he could help me get over with my fears. Yes, if it was him.. maybe this might work.
“What??” He look at me with incredulity.
“You know, like sex and this kisses is not so bad.. and you can stay with us.. I wont bug you about what you’re going to do and all..”
“What?” This time his tone was even sharper.
“Wait, you think I’m playing around with you? Playing house with the kids?”
I bite my lips.
“What else if its not that?”
” Iiana.. I just kissed you with my heart on it.. and you’re telling me I’m joking around?”
I couldn’t say anything back. So only silence greet him.
“It seems I had a big hurdle ahead of me to break that wall of yours. Let me tell you one thing, Iiana”
“I had vowed to never kiss a women, not unless I meant it. Not unless she is mine to touch and take. And you are mine, as much as I am yours”
He took my hand and kiss at the back of my hand.
“I never do something half heartedly. So be prepared, because this is just the beginning”
It was a lovely vow that would make women go googly eyes.. but for me, it’s a threat to abolished my stronghold that I had built for years
And strangely, It makes my heart skipped a beat.
