Chapter 2: New Century (Epilogue)
Chapter 542: Early Morning at Winter Fort
Winter Fort.
Early morning.
The moment the mountain finches in front of the window were chased away by a pair of small, plain white hands, the sound of their flapping wings caused Xi Wei to open his eyes.
Loli, in his arms, was still fast asleep, her slender, warm arms wrapped around his neck. Shifting his gaze slightly, Xi Wei saw a pair of fair, smooth, long legs.
“Master, good morning~”
He looked up and saw Sakura.
Her voice was very soft, as if afraid of waking Loli.
At this moment, she was wearing a somewhat indiscreet maid costume. The main reason was that her succubus form was too voluptuous, so even a not-so-tight maid dress appeared to be a tight-fitting garment on her.
Beneath her delicate collarbone was a gorge that resembled a deep bay, seemingly capable of dragging any man to his doom.
Morning was inherently a time when people’s energy was at its peak.
What’s more, Xi Wei was a Dragon Blood Warrior.
He directly unleashed his pent-up energy, vast and boundless like the land. His “hoe” was already buried in the garden’s soil.
Now, it was buried even deeper.
Fortunately, the soil was moist after the rain, so even though the hoe suddenly dug deeper, there was no sense of resistance.
In her sleep, Loli’s fingers twitched slightly.
Two alluring blushes involuntarily appeared on her pretty face. Her lips parted slightly, emitting cute breathing sounds. The hand around Xi Wei’s neck tightened unconsciously, and the small foot exposed from beneath the covers tensed its arch, its tender toes gradually curling up.
Xi Wei’s lips twitched.
If this continued, he wouldn’t be able to get out of bed.
Calm down…
Don’t let desire break your will!!
“Pop!”
He gently moved Loli, who was in his arms, aside.
Then, he lifted a corner of the blanket and rolled out of bed.
“Good morning~”
He smiled at Sakura, mouthing the words without making a sound. He didn’t avoid Sakura’s gaze as he walked directly to the clothes rack to get dressed.
Sakura had never seen such a situation before.
For a moment, she stood there, stunned, not knowing what to do.
She had voluntarily chosen to become a maid. After reporting to Ruo Yi that morning, she was assigned to clean Xi Wei’s room. In the afternoon, she was scheduled to learn maid etiquette from Mrs. Chris.
When she first entered the room, she was startled. Seeing Loli and Xi Wei’s intimate display made her feel like ants were crawling on her skin, and now, it was even more unbearable.
She had succubus blood flowing in her veins.
Xi Wei’s body held an intense temptation for her, a dual test of her physiology and psychology.
Soon, Xi Wei had put on his pants and turned around. He saw Sakura standing there blankly, lowering her head, her two small hands, which had nowhere to go, fidgeting with the edge of her maid dress, lost in thought.
Although in this era, dressing could be entirely entrusted to a maid, he had already gotten used to handling it himself.
Even if Loli were awake, he would still dress himself. If Loli helped him, just getting dressed might take two or three hours. Waking up was already a difficult task, so there was no need to add more difficulty to the process of getting dressed.
“M-Master, let me help you put it on…”
Sakura finally seemed to react.
She tilted her head, closed her eyes, and fumbled her way towards Xi Wei. She naively believed that by not looking, she could control the succubus power that was gradually raging within her. Unfortunately, by the time she got within two meters of Xi Wei, she couldn’t hold back anymore.
Her clear eyes were gradually replaced by a hazy pinkness. She swayed and crashed into Xi Wei’s embrace. First, she took a deep breath, then opened her mouth and bit down on Xi Wei’s chest.
“Ah~ Master smells so good, I really want to eat you up… I really want you to fill my empty and lonely heart…”
“Bang!”
There was a sound from the window.
Xi Wei turned his head and saw Connie peeking sneakily from the window. Her pair of blue eyes were staring intently inside, her face soft and slightly deformed from being pressed against the glass.
Xi Wei: “…”
It was time for the milk delivery.
Every morning, his bedroom always became very lively.
Helpless, Xi Wei had to take out the Holy Spirit Horn and press it against Sakura’s forehead. Although this method was a bit crude, it was able to resolve the problem more quickly.
After a dull groan.
Sakura finally returned to normal.
…
…
“Please sit.”
In the office, Xi Wei pulled a chair over and gestured for Sakura to sit down.
The bunny-eared girl was clearly still bothered by what had happened earlier. Even though he had comforted her many times, she still looked dejected and shy, her head lowered, staring at her toes, her small hands clenching and unclenching.
Xi Wei didn’t know Sakura’s specific thoughts. But he imagined she was so embarrassed that she could dig a castle out of the ground with her toes.
“Alright, don’t think about what happened earlier anymore. It wasn’t your fault.”
Xi Wei sat in the chair opposite Sakura, hugging Connie like a bolster, resting his chin lightly on Connie’s head. This posture was very comfortable and could effectively prevent cervical spondylosis.
“Master, I’m sorry…”
This was Sakura’s 36th apology.
“Sigh, I said, it’s not your fault. There’s no need to apologize to me.” Xi Wei shook his head helplessly and said patiently, “The succubus problem is not something you can control. It’s an irresistible instinct, just like a dog can’t stop eating its own feces.”
Sakura: “…”
Connie: “(*σ´∀`)σ6!”
Although the analogy was very strange, it was quite effective. Sakura clearly felt less conflicted.
Xi Wei also breathed a sigh of relief. He reached out to pick up the teacup next to him; he hadn’t had any water since morning… However, the next moment, a bottle filled with Dragon Milk was in his hand.
He glanced down. Connie, whose hand had not yet retracted, was looking at him innocently. It was as if she was telling him: What are you looking at? Drink it while it’s hot!
“Cough cough…”
Xi Wei cleared his throat awkwardly. Now that he had Dragon Milk in his hand, he couldn’t possibly reach for the cup again. Not only would it seem deliberate, but it would also make Connie lose face. It was just a bottle of Dragon Milk, after all. Sakura didn’t know! So, he simply pretended to be calm, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip. The familiar taste… It was delicious!
“Since you’re here this morning, I have some questions for you as well.” When it came to business, Xi Wei became serious. He clasped his hands together on the table and asked earnestly, “Sakura, do you have any concept of the first and second stages of demi-human awakening? As far as I know, you seem to have awakened your own unique abilities. Can you describe them to me?”
When it came to her abilities, a shadow flickered in Sakura’s eyes. The inevitable had finally arrived. The maids of Winter Fort all possessed formidable abilities; some had great combat power, while others could turn decay into miracles. However, her own ability was of no use to Xi Wei, nor to the Winter Empire. So, what fate awaited her in the future?
