After the meeting,
Zakiel led Greed and Luna into the arena; his mission was to care for them and prevent them from committing irreparable.
Darka left the original planet with his subordinates and met Reha, as his lord had assigned him.
Tifania and Shadow did not delay in their intelligence mission.
As for the others, they assisted Alvine with other secondary tasks, such as raising awareness among citizens who have lost relatives, families, or friends in chaos, surveillance, and assistance in their training.
Alvine's goal was simple; he did not intend to ally with anyone. As he used to say, an ally is more dangerous than an enemy insofar as they will have ulterior motives against him or his entourage. And the problem was that an ally must be treated as equal, which also meant that he would not have the chance to monitor their actions through the enslavement collar tattoo he put around Tifania's neck.
As for Zakiel, the latter had received other more important tasks than monitoring the two battle fanatics who just wanted to test the power of their new weapons.
This task was to investigate the supposed order led by one of his monarchs.
Thanks to his ability to be everywhere at once, he was the only one Alvine could rely on.
No matter how the enemy falls on him, he will not be able to control him, at least to have the power to control Alvine himself since Zakiel's spirit was the most connected to Alvine's.
No matter how far away he was, the two could communicate without obstruction.
The only one who was dissatisfied with Alvine's strategy was Fy.
Her reasons were simplistic; Alvine was too careful and lenient. She wanted him to let her take care of Zakiel's mission.
But Alvine gave it a categorical refusal.
"Why!?"
"Because you are still immature." It was the answer that Alvine had given to one of the oldest creatures in the universe.
He didn't talk about her age, nor about the maturity of her mind, but about her cynical temperament. Fy is a narcissistic girl; she is not different from Greed when it comes to bypassing Alvine's orders without disobeying him.
Knowing her strange temperament, Alvine had seen fit to let her protect the residents on the planet, which is her physical body.
She is strong, stronger than Tifania, and even stronger when she is on the planet, just like Reha next to the supreme tree.
It is partly because of this assurance that Alvine did not care to see Tifania. Appear in the middle of the throne room.
After settling trivial matters, Alvine returned to see Sylvia and Linn, who had not yet woken up.
He had seen fit to let Fy take care of Lilliana after careful consideration.
(The power of hatred and revenge is an unpleasant power, but its effectiveness is incomparable.) that was his conclusion. Especially knowing that a fierce battle was waiting for him, he knew he would not have the power to protect everyone.
Both (Sylvia & Linn) were in their evolutionary black cocoons, as when his subordinates evolved to another stage.
"They're going to wake up soon, aren't they?" Sabrina's voice sounds behind him. Since her friendly duel against Alvine no longer sealed her primordial powers, she no longer felt the need.
And just like the others, she only used her wings during the battle to increase her speed to another level; outside a battlefield, her wings remain engraved on her back in a whimsical red tattoo.
"Of course, they will wake up." He looks at Sabrina with soft eyes that he only showed in front of her since he regained his memories.
"...It's reassuring." Sabrina's expression improves as a relieved smile blooms on her lips, embellishing her beauty to another level.
"...No matter how many times we lose our loved ones in wars, it's impossible for us to get used to this feeling of sadness that gnaws at our hearts slowly." Alvine unconsciously whispers these words with eyes that seem to look further than what he saw in front of him.
Realizing the relevant sadness in his eyes, Sabrina, who always had trouble getting rid of her role as a guardian, could not help his her cheek as she looked straight into his.
"Don't worry; I wouldn't go anywhere." She said with a tender smile.
Alvine could not help but marvel at seeing Sabrina become the woman he had known in the past. He places his hand on hers,
"I know, I've already made sure of it. Not only for you but also for all those who have followed me so far." He seemed to think out loud as he placed a small kiss on Sabrina's hand he was holding.
"..." The latter was always more inexpressive than usual, but Alvine knew that he should not rely solely on her facial expression to decipher what she felt.
"Are you sure everything is fine?" Having no choice, she forced him to go out of his thoughts before asking him with inquisitive eyes.
"...Sigh, will you allow me to make an admission to you?"
"Since when did you need my consent for these kinds of things?" Sabrina's smile became ironic when she noticed some significant changes in Alvine's behavior.
She knew that he wanted to act as he did with her, but unfortunately, Alvine's efforts could not bear fruit in the face of Sabrina, who knew him better than anyone.
"Hahaha, it's true; I feel a little stupid to ask this question." He laughs softly, noticing his mistake himself.
Seeing Alvine trying to make up for it, Sabrina's eyes seemed to get a little sad as she walked away from him after turning her back.
"You know, you don't need to hide from me who you are now. No matter who you were before we met, it doesn't matter to me. The important thing is the person you have currently become." She speaks monotonously than usual while watching the two cocoons floating before her.
"...I'm afraid, but what you're asking me is...-
She interrupts Alvine. "Do you think that by acting normally, I would be afraid of you?"
"..."
"Sigh, it's ironic to see how much you don't know so much about me despite the fifty years spent together." She continues to see Alvine silent.
"I'm not going to lie to you; I was caught off guard when I saw your murderous intention towards me when we met this woman. But what scared me at that time, more than anything, was that another spirit had replaced yours."
"Huh?" Alvine's eyes could no longer keep their nonchalance when he heard Sabrina's unexpected words.
But the latter did not consider this since she had her back turned. "I had refused you to touch my cheek because I don't like that other people pretend to be you to pamper me; no, I hate that.
-Everything happened so quickly in its last days that I no longer knew where I was.
-First, the existence of this alter ego I had met several times had led me to believe that he had taken over you definitively." She continued in a trembling voice as if she remembered her worst nightmare.
"But you know what the worst was!? It was to learn that I no longer had the power to fight against this other you if ever it was he who had taken control of your body." (Impotence)
In Miss Heepha’s shadow, I thought about all possible strategies to help you if you were no longer yourself. But all I found was to learn my helplessness; knowing I could do nothing to help you made me realize that even I, who lived in bloody battles without respite, was not without fear. (Fear of the worst)
Fear is normal; that's what drives us to move forward and helps us protect ourselves from what we are afraid of. Without fear, I can't see anyone succeeding in progressing in their lives."
'And finally...know how to overcome them.' Concludes Alvine in his mind as he looks at Sabrina as if he has just discovered her new side he does not yet know.
'She is fascinating! Although I have lived a life that others will call immortality, I have never looked at understanding my emotions. Who would have thought that she could always help me without even realizing it herself?' Alvine's smile became ironic by guessing his ignorance.
At the same time, Sabrina finally focuses on him. "Are you always afraid that I will parade or distance myself just because you have become strong and more incredible than I hope?"
"...No, I no longer have any doubt about this fact." Alvine had the impression that a weight had just risen from his heart when he heard Sabrina's statements.
"I see. But just in case, know that I'm happy to be able to rely on you finally. I don't have better words to say it, but I think...?
She was interrupted in her mid-sentence when she noticed Alvine seizing her hand and pulling it towards him.
Confused by Alvine's actions, she looks up toward Alvine's eyes.
But when she noticed Alvine's fancy man smile that she knew well, her cheeks suddenly turned red, unable to remain indifferent, guessing his intentions.
"Decidedly, it's in your nature, this perversion," she whispers this sentence while keeping eye contact, despite her embarrassment.
ƥandasnovel.com Alvine's smile grows in the face of Sabrina's sarcastic remarks. "Tss~, Thank you for the compliments." He whispers in her ear.
Sabrina's eyes widen with disbelief when she hears Alvine's senseless thanks. "...It wasn't a compliment. But rather...!?
But Alvine didn't let her finish her sentence; he put aside all the problems he had in mind and seized her lips with his own!
At the same time, he could feel Sabrina's body shivering with surprise and her temperature skyrocketing.
He would even have sworn to see hot smoke rise out of her hair because of her embarrassment.
'As far as I can remember, she had only given free rein to her feelings once when she saw Lilliana threaten her place as queen. Finally, no matter who I'd be with, I'm no different from the other Alvine who could not forget his first love even when he was on his deathbed.' While he had his thoughts, he noticed Sabrina taking charge after her emotional shock.
Feeling the latter give him back his kiss,
A small vicious smile stands on his lips as he becomes active in his actions.
He wraps his hand on her curved waist and squeezes it against him, and sends his tongue into her mouth, transforming their kiss into a lustful kiss.
One thing he realized when he conquered Fraydja's planet was that Sabrina was not as sweet as she let it seem.
Behind her shell is the ferocious woman who had torn his clothes and almost made him lose control of the situation. This woman, always dressed in sexy lace underwear, could never be sweet in these kinds of situations!
-Crack!
Both were disconcerted when they heard the crackling from two cocoons.
But before Sabrina said anything, Alvine snapped his hand, followed by the appearance of a shadow clone in his image.
"It's too late to escape." His smile was worrying, a level of lust.
But Sabrina was no different from him. She did not comment when she guessed Alvine's intentions.
The next moment, the two vanished into the room where the two survivors were and reappeared in one of the royal chambers belonging to Alvine, even if he had never used them for rest.
The room became silent again, only producing crackling from two cocoons while Alvine's clone watched both, waiting for their hatching.
