nWhile Julian went to the living area to wait until his drinking buddy, in other words, Tomas, woke up or until Vivian did it as he had some things to discuss with her, Agnes didn’t immediately leave Aster’s side.
nIn comparison Lilia was nowhere to be seen after they returned to the mansion, of course that was just on the surface as Aster could tell she was hiding somewhere observing him, but he didn’t mind.
nBesides, Agnes seemed to be really eager to say something, so he turned to see the Fey girl whose eyes were sparkling, though it was Sarina’s day, it’s not like he couldn’t give some attention to the other girls, especially when Agnes obviously vouched for him earlier.
nOf course, Aster didn’t need it, since Lilia is not only as strong as the Ancestors but also technically has the same authority, but Agnes doesn’t know it, well, she doesn’t know about her real identity and status, but she is aware that Lilia is quite strong as she has seen her using her Transcending Gate before.
nThe point is that regardless of how talented one might be, for Agnes who comes from a ruler level family, anyone who isn’t in the Heavenly Realms can’t really impose its will in the cultivation world.
nAnd as far as she knows Aster doesn’t have a Heavenly Realm cultivator backing him, yet he totally defied the Supreme elder that was sent by the Stall family, again and again, the thing with their young miss who was driven out of the sect was different, she made the bet and there were no real victims as Melisa only came to the sect to fool around.
nBut this time it was different, the Supreme elder had already informed the Stall family about Edward, and he was being prepared to be incorporated to their files, if it wasn’t for the fact that they wanted Edward to gain fame and glory for them within the sect to increase their presence, they would have taken him to their Heavenly Quadrant and put him under the direct supervision of a Heavenly Realm instructor.
nThat’s how “talented” he was, after all, his body constitution figured in the list that was compiled by strong forces, holding the 26th place in general, but for a family whose specialty was Spirit Blacksmithing, he was easily in the top five, meaning that he was a really rare find, akin to a diamond among a bunch of quartz.
nUnfortunately, he had no time to awaken nor exploit even the initial potential of his constitution, before Aster beheaded him, so the enmity now wasn’t limited to the Blacksmith Peak of the Myriad Occupation sect, but it extended to the Stall family.
nWhich is why even before Salazar was informed by the Battle Peak’s Ancestor about the fact that Aster will be receiving full support from Battle Peak, she had already announced that she will back him… in all the meaning of the word.
nBut what she wanted to say wasn’t even remotely related to all the previous, still it didn’t go unnoticed by Aster that she didn’t hesitate to remain at his side, not only when things looked sunny, but even when troubles were prompt to appear.
n“There is a place I want to go for our date, William owed me one so we’ll be having some fun at his expense~”, she said with a pretty smile on her face.
n“Sure, I’ll look up for it”, answered Aster as he saw Agnes happily leaving the kitchen to go back to her room to sleep, a bit more.
n‘She looked really eager for her date, as it should be’, thought Aster as he softly laughed before he focused on the task in hand, of course he noticed that curious dragon mother of his observing him from the entrance of the kitchen, which made Aster chuckle.
n“I’m preparing everyone’s breakfast mom, but I’ll only bring it to the bed for Sarina, you and the others will have to eat it at the table like normal”.
nLilia’s pout deepened as she flashed until she was standing behind Aster to hug him from behind.
n“No fair darling, I was also there to support you so where is my “reward”, I also want you to give me breakfast at the bed~”, she said as she cutely rubbed her face against Aster’s.
nAster couldn’t help but softly smile as he enjoyed the smoothness of Lilia’s skin rubbing against his, still he kept firm in his decision, since he knew the two mothers had become competitive lately.
nThankfully he knew how to make Lilia concede.
n“Will you be okay if I divert my eyes from you when it is time for our date?”, he asked, which immediately made Lilia pout knowing her beloved son wasn’t succumbing to her charm.
n“Fine, I’ll wait for my date, you’ll be exclusively mine for a whole day~”, mumbled Lilia as she disappeared in a flash of black light, making Aster sigh.
n‘Like mother, like daughter I guess’, he thought as he took out the ingredients and cookware he was going to need for today’s breakfast.
n“Even someone like me who ate the simplest staple foods for a create the pancake batter, Aster placed a couple of pans as well as a single man, can make a decent breakfast with some effort”, said Aster as he placed, flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, milk, eggs, butter and a few drops of extract of vanilla into a large bowl.
nWhile he used his soul energy to perfectly mix the ingredients to create the pancake batter, Aster placed a couple of pans as well as a large wok, on the stove which he already turned on earlier, with a snap of his fingers, he broke a few dozens of eggs and put their content into another bowl, to then add salt as he mixed it.
nFollowing that, he waved his hand and used his sword intent to skillfully peel and cut some fruits into dices that he placed on a large plate, now he just needed two more things, meat and something to drink.
nFor the meat, bacon was the perfect answer, as he doesn’t have to add any seasoning, so he dropped some oil onto one of the two pans and applied butter to the other, guided by his soul energy, pieces of bacon were placed on the pan with oil, while the bowl with the pancake batter was raised to let a certain amount of its content to be poured on the pan with butter.
nAs for the large wok, he added oil and then the eggs which he had mixed with salt, it was a though simple, decent breakfast, pancakes, bacon, scrambled eggs and fruits, and for the finishing touch, he made a large quantity of oranges float on top of a metal tub and then closed his fist, using his soul energy to squeeze the juice out of them.
n‘Ah, the marvels of telekinesis’, thought Aster, while soul energy as it is can be used to move objects in a certain direction, advanced or delicate processes required telekinesis to not make a damn mess, luckily Aster was skilled in almost all the aspects of soul cultivators, except probably illusions.
nBut he didn’t need that in this case, parallel thinking as well as telekinesis where more than enough, if a soul cultivator who has to put a lot of effort and training just to develop one of the previous and not be as skilled as Aster was from the very beginning, were to see him use such gifts for such mundane things, he will for sure curse Aster to death.
nAnyway, after repeating the previous a couple of times until he calculated it was enough for everyone to have their fill, and without forgetting to use Rigel’s flames to make the recently squeezed orange juice get cold enough to accentuate its freshness, everything was ready.
nAnd here is where things will split into two different ways, Aster snapped his fingers and all the large plates filled to the brim with food floated, following him to the dining room, needless to say but the others with the exception of Sarina, where already waiting, as cooking all of that took quite some time, despite how easy it was since Aster “cheated”.
n“Breakfast made by big brother~”, exclaimed Kana as she saw Aster arriving at the table with all the plates, which he placed at the table for everyone to take what they wanted.
nAster smiled and then patted the little girl’s head a couple of times, as he prepared a couple of plates, one for himself and another one for today’s star, in other words Sarina.
nThe others thanked Aster for the food as they saw him leaving towards his bedroom, leaving behind a clearly jealous couple of dragon mother and daughter, as well as a few curious people, namely Vivian and the chatterbox runic oak Nim who didn’t lose the time to ask what kind of “courting ritual” was that, making the Ligress girl Mira growl at it as she took a bite of a piece of bacon.
nLeaving aside the usual lively scene that Aster always enjoys at morning in the dining room, he walked towards his room with a couple of food trays, in which he had smaller version of the buffet he prepared for everyone, as in a lot of things in life, presentation made a huge difference.
nFor Sarina, Aster placed the diced fruit in a small bowl which he decorated with honey, he piled some pancakes and put a strawberry on to of them as well as a few pieces of bacon at the side, with small jade containers for jam, honey and soft butter, as well as big glass of cold orange juice, and for the finishing touch, a flower he just cut from the garden of the little girl, with her permission of course.
n‘Not bad if you ask me, but not really my thing’, thought Aster as he contemplated his creation, certainly he had it relatively easy as he used telekinesis and parallel thinking to make various things at the same time, but it still took him quite some time to prepare everything, and he didn’t do anything that required a proper seasoning, nor prepared the full course meals that Sarina does on a daily basis.
nBeing a spirit chef, which is what Sarina aims to become, isn’t easy at all, it can be compared to become an alchemist, with the difference that a chef has the extra requirement of only make the food nutritious for cultivators, but also tasty and not repetitive, naturally both occupations have their perks.
nOf course, no one forces Sarina to prepare food, it is something she willingly does and enjoys doing, not to mention she makes the three major meals as part of her daily routine, but anything in between is on each person as the kitchen is open for everyone, or they can simply order something or go to a restaurant like Alice who is a disaster at the kitchen does.
nAster casually opened the door of his room and then entered followed by the trays of food, he closed the door behind of him and then posed his eyes the beautiful woman, who was laying down on the bed with an expecting smiling expression on her pretty face.
nAster smiled and then he jumped onto the bed, landing next to Sarina to then bring her into his embrace.
n“We have a long day ahead of us, so I hope my Sarina is hungry”, said Aster as he kissed Sarina’s face a couple of times making her blush a bit.
n“Mm~”, she mumbled, Aster couldn’t help but find her honest reactions cute, the number of “mature” girls he knows is quite reduced and out of all of them, the one who actually acts as a mother by default is Sarina, despite she not being even close to be the oldest in terms of age, she just has that vibe one would expect from a mother with a young daughter.
nSo, the contrast of the motherly Sarina, with the obviously inexperienced in love Sarina, is something Aster truly enjoys to see, he isn’t a mother-con for nothing after all.
nAster smiled as he accommodated behind of Sarina to then drag her upwards until she was half sitting on the bed while resting the back of her head on his chest, the two food trays floated towards them and then Aster personally cut the food and fed her to Sarina, who happily accepted the offer.
n“Normally you are the one taking care of me, so today I will spoil my Sarina to the content of my heart”, said Aster as he took a bite of his pancake.
nNeedless to say, but Sarina enjoyed the cares of her lover, she personally likes to tend to Aster, like a young wife would do for her husband, but this isn’t bad for a change of pace, staying on the bed and being spoiled is a new experience for her and she was loving every second of it.
nOf course, all good things must come to an end, so before they both noticed they had finished their breakfast, Aster was careful so there wasn’t any mess left on the bed, luckily when one good thing ends, nothing prevents another one from taking over.
n“Mm?”, Sarina saw Aster leaning to place his left arm below her thighs, while his right arm firmly but gently held onto her upper body as he stood up while carrying her like a princess, and she gave him a confused gaze.
n“We’ll take a short bath and then we’ll leave, the next mission is for you, so we have some catch up to do”, said Aster with a smirk as he walked towards the bathroom with Sarina who was all smiles, in his arms.
nAs he previously stated, Aster planned to do what Sarina does for him on a daily basis, so after they entered the bathroom, he first closed the door and then gently undressed the blond motherly woman.
nShe was only wearing light clothe such as a nightgown as well as underwear to sleep, like all the girls do when there won’t be night activities, so Aster skillfully undid the laces on the backside, making the piece of fine silk graciously fall to the ground, revealing the soft, voluptuous body below of it.
nAster really wanted to jump and grab a bite of the beautiful woman in front of him, but there will be plenty of time for that later, for now he controlled his desires and instead removed that bra which held those glorious large pair of breasts, which were a pleasure to the touch.
nAster couldn’t help but gulp as his fingers gently traced their way back to her back, earning a few giggles from Sarina, she knew it was taking Aster a lot to restrain herself, and she loved the feeling of her beloved being head over heels for her.
nListening to Sarina’s giggles, Aster cleared his throat and then used his thumbs to loosen the sides of her panties to then crouch down to lower them all the way to her feet, while resisting the urge to raise his head to get a look at that beautiful piece of paradise, which was not too far from him, Aster waited for Sarina to raise her feet so he could completely remove the last piece of clothing that covered her body.
nHaving had her fun, Sarina raised her feet and Aster swiftly took her panties and put them into the laundry basket, he then took off his clothes and did the same, though he hadn’t done that much, he was in the kitchen and the smell of food slightly stayed on them, he will be going on a date with his Sarina, so it was of utmost importance to be as presentable as possible.
nAster then grabbed Sarina’s hand and dragged her under the shower, the fresh water rained upon them, getting them wet in a matter of seconds, luckily Aster took pride in never letting his impulses rule his actions, because Sarina’s naked body was too charming to not have any sort of reaction after having the privilege to see it.
nSarina smiled seeing the big thing between Aster’s legs, enthusiastically raising, while Aster did his best to not turn this into a lovemaking session as to not reduce the time of the date.
nThat being said and with a raging boner, Aster properly applied shampoo to Sarina’s long silky blond hair and then washed it, to repeat the process this time by soaping her whole body, to then help her cleanse it to perfection, he did the same for himself and then they were both fresh and nice, ready for their date. 𝑜𝒱𝓵xt.𝒞𝑜𝗆
n“I’ll put on some clothes, while you fix that~”, jokingly said Sarina as she pointed at Aster’s thing.
n“Ahem, yeah, thanks”, mumbled Aster as he took a deep breath to then put his clothes on, only then he managed to completely calm down, luckily at this point, Sarina had already put on new underwear, so Aster didn’t have it as hard to look at her, putting on the clothes she chose for her date.
nAster had told her that they will be going out so she chose a short white dress that reached a bit down her knees, it had some green flowery details at its borders that made a great contrast with her beautiful light green eyes, as well as a short neckless dark gray vest to accentuate her upper body, she looked gorgeous.
n“I’m ready”, said Sarina as she did a little turn to enjoy the eyes of eyes of Aster being glued at her.
nShe then playfully held onto Aster’s right arm, so that Aster could use his authority to transport the two of then out of the castle.
n…
nUnlike normal, this time a formation came out of Aster’s ring, before they were transported through a much more complex dimensional tunnel, also the travel actually took around ten minutes before the scenery changed from Aster’s bathroom to a completely unknown place, where neither of them has been to before.
nIt was an open landscape with large rock formations as well as mountains that reached as far as the eye could see, the temperature was also rather high, but not to the point of it being uncomfortable, at least not for Aster and Sarina, they appeared on top of a large rock as well, it wasn’t exactly a romantic place, but Sarina didn’t seem to mind, as long as she was with Aster, the place didn’t matter.
n“This is Randar a planet that belongs to the Battle Peak, it characterizes due to it being a heaven for earth-oriented attribute cultivators, it’s still within Galatia so this can be considered a little walk in the park”, said Aster with a casual smile, which gave Sarina a strange premonition, which became true the next second as Aster said.
n“Now, it’s time for you to choose what will your second path will be and based on that we’ll continue with our date”, he said as he kissed her right cheek.
