Chapter 226: Truth.
''Please…'' Azura used her puppy eyes.
She and Ichiro were sitting on the bed in Ichiro's room. They were watching movies from Azura's laptop.
Ichiro sighed, ''No.''
''Pleaseeeeee…'' She lied down on the bed and put her head on Ichiro's lap, ''Pleaseeeee.''
''Nope,'' Ichiro replied and kept watching the laptop.
''I want to come with you!'' She hugged Ichiro's waist and inhaled his scent, ''I can only stay in the Fortress, I won't enter the Island!''
She couldn't see Ichiro's pained face.
He told her that he needed to return to the Fortress month later. Since then, Azura has begged him to take her with him.
But he isn't going to the Fortress. Instead, he must return to the sh*thole, where final matches will be held. Taking Azura with him would be the last thing he would do.
''Why not!'' She sat down on Ichiro's lap and looked at him with her bright blue eyes, ''Do you not want to be with me…''
''Silly.'' Ichiro flicked her forehead.
''Owie.'' She rubbed her painful forehead, ''Then, why?''
Ichiro sighed, ''You have school.''
''You have too.''
''I will graduate even if I won't enter any classes… But, you have to be there.''
Azura pouted and left his lap. She sat down on the bed and looked at the laptop in silence.
Ichiro was fine with silence, but after 10 minutes, it was too much.
''I can't take you there…'' He said, which caused Azura to turn her head away.
''But…''
Azura's ears perked up.
''In December, there is a gathering for the geniuses from all around the world, and I was invited.'' Ichiro put his hands on Azura's waist and put his head on her shoulder, ''Please, can you come with me?''
''Hmm, what is it called?'' Azura asked casually, but she was obviously interested.
Ichiro smiled and took a card from his pocket.
Azura looked at the text and frowned, ''The Test?''
Ichiro nodded and put it back in his pocket.
''Fine… I will come with one condition.'' Azura said with a smug smile.
''Oh, conditions?'' Ichiro looked amused and waited for her next words.
Azura didn't answer; instead, she sneakily moved her hand closer to his groin.
''Ah, wait!'' He grabbed her wrist.
''Shh…'' She put her finger on Ichiro's lips with a teasing smile. Her right arm was now completely fine after drinking the Healing Potion. It looked like a miracle that it healed overnight, but it was not the first time.
There have been miracles happening many times, like what happened to Sariel.
She finally got rid of her cast yesterday. She put her hand inside his pants and grabbed something inside his underwear.
''Damn…'' He closed his eyes as he felt something soft touching his manhood.
[For fucks sake]
'Sorry, I will upgrade the system as soon as possible…' Ichiro said with an apologetic face.
He didn't notice, but an illusionary figure left his body and went through the walls, leaving the two lovebirds alone.
Azura moved her body closer to Ichiro and whispered in his ear, ''Does it feel good…''
''Mm…'' He nodded while Azura increased the pace of her rubbing. A bulge was seen on his pants as Azura's hand went up and down.
A blush was visible on Azura's cheeks. She never thought of doing something so lewd before meeting with Ichiro! But, she has thought about it doing with Ichiro past few days… A lot.
Ichiro grabbed the blanket tightly as Azura increased the pace even more.
She felt incredible satisfaction after seeing her lover feeling good.
''Haah… Hahh…'' Ichiro's breathing was becoming rough as the soft and cold hand kept rubbing his manhood.
'This feels so much better than doing it by myself…' Ichiro bit his lips and felt his legs going jelly, and something was about to come.
''Cum… Cum… Cum…'' Azura whispered lustfully and increased the pace. She nibbled on Ichiro's ear, which was the climax.
Ichiro turned his head towards the ceiling and flinched.
Azura felt something sticky and warm covering her hand. She took the hand from his pants and looked at the white liquid. She licked it and grimaced, ''So sour!''
''Haaah…'' Ichiro looked exhausted but also relieved. He stood up with shaky legs and walked towards the bathroom.
He closed the door of the bathroom and started taking off his clothes, but then the door was opened, and Azura came with a blushing face.
''You alright?'' She asked with worry. She thought maybe Ichiro hated it.
Ichiro chuckled and nodded, ''I am fine… It just made me think about many things…'' He grabbed his pants and underwear and took them away.
He put them on the washing bin while Azura shyly looked at his naked athletic body.
''W-What did you think about?'' She asked, trying to get her attention distracted.
Ichiro turned the shower on, ''About you and me.''
''Eh?'' Azura looked confused and nervous.
His serious look made her silent.
'Is he… Talking about breaking up?' Her throat became parched, and she felt like crying if he even suggested it.
Ichiro sighed and covered his body with shampoo.
''I am done lying.'' Ichiro opened his mouth.
''Eh?''
''I have lied to you, Azura. I don't want to do that to you. Seeing you trusting me so much makes it more painful.''
''W-What are you saying?''
The shampoo and water trickled down his muscular body, ''I wasn't in Frozen Island.''
Azura widened her eyes in shock, ''W-Where have you been?'' Again tears were about to leave her eyes, 'No… H-He couldn't… W-Was the pictures real, d-did he cheat on me…'
Ichiro stopped showering and appeared in front of Azura whose eyes were brimmed with tears.
''I have actually been in an Underworld tournament.'' His calm voice echoed in the bathroom.
His heart beat rapidly, out of nervousness. He closed his eyes, and this might be the end of their relationship, 'Please… Don't hate me…' He hoped in his mind and waited for Azura's following words.
But… He heard something very unexpected.
Azura took a breath of relief, ''Oh, thank god!''
''Eh?''
