Chapter 177: Into a {Kismet} [2/2]
Aki then smiled lovingly as she stole a quick kiss on my cheeks.
"Master, I am fine. {Replace} healed me of all my injuries. I was lucky I already had {Auto}, otherwise I would have died."
The woman then took my right arm and wrapped her arms around it in an intimate embrace. It was an affectionate gesture usually shared between lovers or spouses.
"Aki, didn't you say you wouldn't seduce me?"
"Ara, this is nothing master."
She then pressed my arm into her chest and licked my right earlobe. A pleasant scent remained after she pulled her face away. It had a flowery scent that wasn't too overpowering and gave a fresh impression.
"I am confident in my seduction techniques, Master. I can play any role or participate in any fetish you may desire. None of my targets could ever resist me when I got serious."
Aki's attack stimulated everything from my skin, eyes, ears, and even my nose. Like a succubus, she smiled as her doe-like eyes drew me in. Then she rested her head on my shoulder and whispered seductively.
"But I remain a chaste woman and have yet to be touched by anyone. I offer everything only to you. The one who I adore with all my heart."
The woman giggled like a child as we walked like lovers in a romantic evening. Surprised by Aki's sultry performance, I found it difficult to keep my focus on her words.
How long has it been since I had an intimate relationship? Walking through the familiar landscape with a breathtaking Phantom on my arm made everything surreal.
I tried desperately to think of something to talk about as we walked arm in arm.
"What are you going to do with Haru, Aki?"
Immediately, her mood soured as she frowned.
"I do not know yet, master.We have no relatives left, and as a Phantom, I will soon have to choose a base to defend. I have already managed to leave the Asian battlefront, but I cannot guarantee his safety."
Although I regretted killing her joyful mood, getting her to stop seducing me was a worthy trade-off.
Aki now had a choice: care for Haru but never see him, or take him under her wing and worry every night about how to defend her precious brother.
Truly, I had the same problem as I had to relocate Earl's family. But unless I could drag them away, it was impossible to uproot their lives just for my affairs.
I put my hand over Aki's as I reassured her.
"Don't worry Aki, we may not know what to do, but if we all help out, I'm sure it will be okay."
The Japanese beauty smiled at my comment and hugged my arm tighter.
"Yes, Master. As long as you are with me. I will manage somehow."
"You give me too much credit. By the way, can you call me Smith-san or just John like before?"
"That is impossible, Master. Didn't you command me to become yours? I am your slave now, in every sense of the word. So I cannot call you so casually."
"But you are not my slave Aki, you are my friend."
Aki stopped and stared into my eyes. Then she had a moment of thought before answering.
"Then I will only call you master when there are other people around. In private it will be anata, because you are going to be my husband."
Although I knew very little Japanese, anata was one of the words I understood. It was widely used in anime and hentai. It was the equivalent of dear, used only for one's spouse.
As I heard the original Japanese instead of dear. It may mean that the {Interpret} will only work for words that I do not know.
Usually, I hear phrases that make no sense from the girls, so like machine-translated novels, I would lose braincells if I took everything literally.
I swallowed audibly at her fierce declaration. There was no if, or maybe it was a firm declaration. As if she would accept no other outcome.
"Ah, that reminds me, how long will your sleeping agent last on my family? I leave in less than an hour," I tried to change the topic.
"Don't worry anata, Phantoms will no longer be summoned to Hellsgate by force. We can wait for them to wake up if you like."
Not having to worry about being called back was a good thing, but I didn't want to slack off just because I could.
"I don't think I will wait, it would be embarrassing to explain anyway. I will report to Hellsgate and just talk to them tomorrow morning."
"I see, then I will explain to father and mother-in-law once they wake up in your stead. As soon as I am done, I will come find you, anata."
"Uhm. Aki, can you just call me Master, it makes me uncomfortable to hear your voice say anata."
"Ara, is that so? Does my voice remind you of those perverted videos you used to watch? The Japanese are especially talented at making porn. Should I try to say a few lines?"
"Ugh. Please spare me, Aki, I have enough problems as it is."
The woman moved away from me and wrapped her arms around my neck.
Probably because she was Asian, she was petite like Bella or Robyn. Maybe 5'6", she felt fragile when she flirted with me like this.
"Fufu, you don't have to suppress your desires, Master. I am yours. Only you have the right to ravage my body. Please use me as much you wish."
Seeing my discomfort, Aki gave me a quick peck on the lips while biting her lower lip.
"I shouldn't go beyond that, after all, I gave Bella my word."
The bladed kitsune abruptly separated from me and knelt before me.
"I wish you victory, my master. May your fate end the darkness."
A little disappointed, I wished to travel to Hellsgate in my mind and felt a familiar pull on my soul.
"See you later, Aki."
I gave in to the feeling and teleported to Hellsgate for the third time.
