nWith no bodyguard, no servant, or anyone else around, Viktor became the only one who had to stand through the night while the girl rested.

nViktor anxiously peeked out of the window from time to time and frequently checked the Djinn’s sensor.

nEvery hour, the Djinn would remind him of the threats that passed the 3-mile radius. Sometimes, ghouls, critters, hellhounds, and even a group of flying gargoyles would pass, making his heart race.

nHe was a hundred percent sure that this place had a lot more creatures wandering around than all the places he had been to.

nHe could not help but constantly feel nervous with every hour that passed. Not to mention, his head was still spinning and his stats were still penalized from the facility’s radioactive air.

nYet despite his condition, Viktor had to stay awake the whole night while paying attention to the sick girl.

nTo keep his mind out of worries, Viktor decided to check the burn injury on his arm.

nHe expected it to have healed a little, but to his surprise, the blisters could hardly be seen anymore.

nThis was one great thing about the new world, the age where supernatural abilities existed.

nNevertheless, Viktor took out the medical kit he got and applied all of the medicine he had on the remaining blisters on his arm. He did not think that it was necessary to use so much, but it was better to be safe than sorry.

nThere was no way he would be able to accept it if his skin condition could not return to the way it was.

nAn hour later, he found that the toxication that affected his stats was finally gone. Without him noticing, his headache had disappeared and he had once again returned to being perfectly healthy.-.

nThings turned for the better when the morning sun finally rose, especially with the girl also finally awaking from her rest.

nAs Viktor checked up on her, he found that her fever was already gone.

nJessie began to sleepily look around the room. From her slightly dazed expression, it seemed that she did not remember anything about last night.

nWhen the girl finally looked toward Viktor, she realized that under the blanket that Viktor put on her, she had no pants on.

nShe suddenly looked at him with a weird suspicious gaze and screamed.

n“What did you do to me last night!!?”

nThe girl hurriedly covered her body with the blanket as tightly as she could. At this moment, the bold girl looked as if she was a victim of sexual assault.

n“What the hell!?”

nViktor was shocked. Such an accusation was beneath him!

nThis was the first time he got accused of such a thing. Before the apocalypse, no girl dared to reject him, the young master of the Romanov family. In fact, sleeping with him was considered a fortune that would allow them to brag about it for a lifetime.

n“I didn’t do anything, okay!?” Viktor hysterically complained.

nAll of a sudden, he felt the spinning sensation and throbbing pain he felt last night come back twofold. This caused him to almost stutter as he glared back at her.

n“Seriously!! Is this how you treat a guy who saved your life and guarded you the whole night!? Do you have any idea how tired I am right now!?”

nHowever, the girl ignored him.

nJessie was almost talking to herself trying to remember. After a while, it seemed that the memory was slowly coming back to her, and at that moment, her confusion was replaced by an apologetic smile.

n“Hahaha… I’m sorry, I’m sorry…” the girl awkwardly said while averting her gaze.

n“Huh! Not everything can be paid with an apology!” Viktor was really emotional right now.

n“I really am sorry… I’m usually a real sleepyhead in the morning… You’ll forgive me, right?” Jessie asked in a coquettish tone.

n“I am telling you, I will never touch a girl without consent,” Viktor retorted and took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

nThe girl, however, still acted as cheeky as always.

n“All right, all right, I get it… Don’t be mad, okay? Tell me… how should I make it up to you?”

nAs she said that last sentence, the girl’s tone once again became teasing. This caused Viktor to be conscious of the girl’s position. At this moment, Jessie spread out her unbuttoned jacket, stunningly showing her smooth skin and curves behind the bra.

nShe slowly moved toward him.

n“I think I really should… thank you for your help… I’m very… very… grateful.”

nThe girl was able to brilliantly change his mood.

nHer face was now less than a palm’s width away from his. Not only that, but now that she came out from the blanket, Viktor could see everything from her thighs to her bottom curves.

nWith such a confrontation, it would be impossible for a real man to not be affected, and he was no exception.

n“Yes… you really should…” Viktor unconsciously answered, his eyes wandering all over the girl.

nJessie’s body, added with her playful gesture and beautiful eyes staring at him, quickly awakened his little brother. Viktor was ready to devour her when he suddenly remembered.

nQuest objective – You shall purify your body from sex.

nViktor once again cursed loudly in his mind about the damn quest. Probably loud enough to make the Djinn turn deaf.

nReminded how important the quest reward was, Viktor hurriedly put both of his hands gently on Jessie’s shoulders, stopping the girl’s advance.

n“Stop teasing me, we’re still in danger,” he said with a smile on his face.

nJessie, however, became visibly shocked when she heard his words.

n“Wow, looks like you’re not the kind of person I assumed you to be!” the girl patted his shoulder and happily said.

n“Ermm… What… what kind of person did you think I am?”

n“You know, like those guys who only think about sex and have no self-control… I thought you were one of them, but you’re surprisingly different,” Jessie answered with a shrug. Despite that, the girl had a different kind of smile as she said those words.

nIt was as if she was ready to feast on him.

n“Mm, yeah… Don’t compare me to those guys… of course I can control myself.”

nViktor tried his best to control his expression. He managed to keep his cool when he spoke, but inside, he was crying in desperation.

nJessie once again thanked Viktor for his help. She stood up, took out a new set of clothes from her ring, and began changing her worn-out clothes in front of him.

nJust as she was just about to change her underwear, the girl turned to look at him and said with a little chuckle.

n“Well, as my hero, I’ll allow you to see… I don’t mind.”

nWith her eyes still looking straight at him, Jessie slowly began undressing. In front of him, the mountains’ curves and the purse between her thighs were clearly revealed as she took off her old clothing and put on a set of fresh ones.

nThe girl really was a master of tease. Viktor initially thought that this girl would be an easy one with her personality, but from her natural reaction this morning, there seemed to be something else behind all those flirty and teasing gestures.

nWell, it was not like he hated it. On the contrary, Viktor liked her even more this way. He could not wait to see the real Jessie.

nWhen Jessie finally finished changing, she quickly asked him about the fuel rod tubes she took from the radioactive pool. Viktor wanted to tease the girl back by telling her that he forgot about them, but remembering what she went through for those tubes, he ultimately decided not to.

nViktor carefully took out the tubes from his ring and laid them on the floor. In total, there were five of them, and each was about half a meter long.

n“Will these be enough?” Viktor asked.

n“I think so. I made sure to get extras to make yours, you know?”

nOnce again, Viktor was reminded of how Jessie was inside the radioactive pool for more than 10 minutes.

nWas it normal to recover from something like that this fast? It took him hours to only remove the toxicated effect from just being near the pool, yet it only took the girl a few hours more to fully recover from being submerged for that long.

nWhile Viktor was in thought, Jessie used the radio to check the others. Thankfully, Roman, Wade, and Bugs were all right, so after making sure that their surroundings were safe, the two quickly sneaked out and went to the designated meeting place.

nAlong the way, the two found a few stragglers of abyss creatures and ghouls. Having recovered, Jessie once again fought skillfully with her dual metal baton.

nUnwilling to let the girl take all the spotlight, Viktor joined the fight.

nAs they fought side-by-side, Viktor noticed that Jessie threw a shiny metal marble that gave electric shocks to nearby opponents. Not to mention, the metal baton she was holding also did not seem simple at all. She would sometimes use the batin to electrocute the creatures just like a taser.

nAdded with her lightning spell that engulfed her body in sparks of lightning, she once again took the lead.

nAn hour later, the team finally managed to get together. After they made sure that they did not leave anything, the group rushed back toward the icebreaker ship and got ready to return to Arkhangelsk City.

nHowever just as soon as they were about to reach the shore, thousands of the undead from the port city moved.. It was as if they were waiting all along.
