Chapter 42 - Alise in a Mess

Lyra turned to the two of them and complained, "It turns out that we spoil him too much usually. He can even do such a thing."

Akira said, "How dare you you slander me so casually? I will punish you by unleashing a curse upon you that you never get to marry Finn for the rest of your life! You will become a lonely old woman."

Several people chuckled.

"What a vicious punishment! For Finn's sake, Lyra, use the secret bomb on him!" Kaguya smiled and patted Lyra's shoulder.

Lyra rolled up her sleeves with a smile and walked towards Akira.

Akira pulled Ryuu's arm and said to Lyra in a terrified manner, "Protect the emperor, protect the emperor. General Ryuu, why don't you step forward to fight against the cunning rat Lyra?"

"Oh?" Ryuu stood in front of Lyra, confused.

"I never thought that a righteous man like you would submit to that evil king?" Lyra went along with the play.

"Ah, what king? Are you referring to Akira?" Ryuu and Lyra wrestled with their fingers intertwined, while Ryuu expressed her confusion.

"As expected, have you also been bewitched by Akira's beauty?" Seeing that she couldn't break free from Ryuu's fingers, Lyra could only speak out Ryuu's current weakness.

Ryuu immediately let go of Lyra, waving her hands in front of her face, and said anxiously, "Hey, no! Lyra, what are you talking about?"

"A flaw."

Lyra quickly bypassed Ryuu and reached out to grab Akira, but missed.

Akira teleported and suddenly appeared in front of Alise and Kaguya.

He made a face at Lyra and said, "Hahaha, you didn't expect that, did you?"

"Damn it!" Lyra said unwillingly.

Kaguya gently stretched out her hands from behind Akira, twisted his neck, and made a "click" sound.

Akira lay softly in Kaguya's arms and closed his eyes.

"Just like that, the Blood Hell Lord Akira was defeated by the brave and fearless spirit of the heroes. This is a cause for celebration." After saying this, Akira continued to sing the ending song.

Astraea, who was sitting on the sofa, covered her mouth and laughed sweetly.

Kaguya lowered her head and whispered to Akira in her arms, "You are really getting more and more wanton. You even dare to touch Astraea-sama."

After the farce ended, Astraea asked the five people to sit back on the sofa.

"Then let's hand in Akira's level up report to the guild tomorrow. Alise, can I give it to you?"

"No problem, just leave it to me, the perfect captain!" Alise patted her chest and promised.

"Alise, remember to change my level up time to three months. This will at least reduce some trouble. At the same time, I only fought the black Wyvern." Akira stated his request.

"I see. Even though it's shocking that it took three months to level up, it's much more easy to handle than one month." Alise leaned on Akira's lap and said.

Lyra said with a look of disappointment, "Akira is really timid. If it were me, I would brag about this kind of thing every day like Alise."

With Lyra's intelligence, she actually understood Akira's worries, but she also hoped that he would become everyone's pride.

Akira understood that everyone wanted him to accept the honor openly, but it was not yet time for that. His strength was not yet at the point where he could handle everything, so he needed to make some preparations.

Now is still an age of chaos. If it were seven years later, it wouldn't matter how fast he leveled up, but it's not possible now because Evilus is still eyeing the Astraea and other familias.

Therefore, Akira had no choice but to stroke Alise's hair and said, "When I rank up to LV 3, you can do whatever you want. Just listen to me now."

"It turns out that our familia is too weak. If I had the strength of Finn or Ottar, Akira would not have to do this." Alise was in a low mood for once.

Kaguya and Ryuu looked at each other and decided to train harder.

Astraea and Lyra looked at Akira, signaling with their eyes that he should comfort Alise.

Akira showed a helpless expression, but...

Since they had asked him to comfort her, he won't be responsible if anything happens.

"Captain."

Alise turned around and looked at Akira with her dashing and heroic face. Her face, which was usually full of energy, now looked a little depressed and made her look more charming.

Is this the contrast of cuteness?

"What's wrong, Akira? Any other requests?" Alise's slightly low voice reached Akira's ears.

'Alise, you really don't suit this posture, so let me restore you to your original state.' Akira thought as he looked at Alise.

Akira gently brushed back Alise's bangs, revealing her smooth forehead.

In Alise's slightly widened eyes, Akira's face was reflected, and the distance between them was getting closer and closer.

She felt a gentle and delicate touch on her forehead. Although she had been kissed on the forehead lovingly by her relatives when she was a child, she had never felt such a heart-pounding feeling.

When Alise realized that she was kissed on the forehead, she felt as if her magic had been activated and her whole body became hot.

"Wow wow wow—"

Alise let out a cry of surprise, climbed up from Akira's lap, and quickly ran across the table to a corner to calm down.

Without looking in the mirror, Alise knew that her face must be blushing with shame.

Seeing this, not only the three girls, but even Astraea was frightened by Akira's actions.

"Haa... Haa... Haa..."

After taking a few deep breaths, Alise finally calmed down a little. She turned around and looked a little more normal, but her face was still slightly red.

"This meeting is now over, and I, the captain, declare the group disbanded!"

With a trembling voice, Alise rushed to the door immediately after she finished speaking.

Kaguya punched Akira on the head and left in silence, while Ryuu followed closely with a red face.

Lyra patted Akira's head and comforted him, "It's okay, Kaguya won't be angry with you, she's probably just jealous. Make it up to her next time."

Then, she waved to Akira and Astraea and left the room.

Watching the three of them leave, Akira asked Astraea, "Astraea-sama, am I really too greedy? Is it bad that I don't want to give up anyone?"

Astraea hugged Akira and comforted him, "Who can know about this kind of thing?"

"But, tonight, Akira plans to sleep with me for the first time in a long time?"

"Um."
