Chapter 552 : Aftermath.

"Brother Felyn, open your mouth, ah..."

Felyn's lips were slowly parted, and something carrying a girlish scent rubbed against them.

A moist, warm sensation touched his face, tinged with a hint of sweetness.

Under the girl's expectant gaze, Felyn had no choice but to open his mouth and respond to her actions.

"Ya~"

Dorothy's eyelashes trembled slightly. Her knees pressed tightly together, and a flush crept up her cheeks.

A seductive gasp escaped from her slightly parted lips, dyeing the entire room pink.

"Is it good, Brother Felyn...?"

"Mmm... Mmm..."

Dorothy opened her moist eyes and realized Felyn's mouth was currently full. She quickly pulled her hand away.

"Dorothy, you're just feeding me bread, what's with the weird noises?! People will get the wrong idea!"

Felyn was speechless. He chewed the jam-filled bread in his mouth and looked at Dorothy, who was now kneeling on the bed.

"I'm sorry, Brother Felyn... I just thought you looked so cute when you were eating, I couldn't help but go 'ya'." Dorothy cupped her face with her hands, love practically overflowing from her eyes.

"Am I some kind of hamster? How can I be called cute just for eating?" Felyn protested.

The bread in his mouth was personally baked by Dorothy, paired with her special jam. It was actually quite delicious.

Dorothy took the bread and brought the part Felyn had just bitten to her own lips.

Her red tongue slowly extended, first licking the bread, then opening her mouth and eating the entire part Felyn had bitten, bit by bit.

"Brother Felyn, I ate it all, you know."

"Just eat it, can you please not emphasize it so much?!" Felyn struggled, but he couldn't escape Dorothy's grasp no matter what.

Seeing Felyn's embarrassment, Dorothy smiled triumphantly.

Hehe, teasing Brother Felyn is so much fun.

She stood on the carpet and lifted her skirt.

"Brother Felyn... is the dress Dorothy is wearing today cute?"

The floral slip dress had a youthful air, but Dorothy's hazy purple eyes at this moment dyed the dress with the scent of desire.

"Cute, cute."

"Then will Brother Felyn fall in love with me?" Her hand rested on her chest. "Brother Felyn should like it a lot, right? Being in a relationship with an underage child, this forbidden feeling will make Brother Felyn unable to stop, right?"

Felyn quickly shook his head in denial. "Dorothy, am I that much of a pervert in your eyes? No matter what, I wouldn't date a child."

"But I'm not a child anymore. I'm already an adult." Dorothy's voice gradually rose, and the moonlight hung on the tip of her nose. "But I will always maintain the appearance of a 14 or 15-year-old, I will never grow old. Brother Felyn, you can enjoy a child's appearance and body without taking any responsibility. Isn't that good?"

Before Felyn could answer, Dorothy had already moved in front of him. "Brother Felyn, speaking of which, you haven't given Dorothy her reward yet."

"Reward?"

Dorothy nodded. "Back in Varir Village, I risked everything to save Brother Felyn. Shouldn't you give me a little... reward?"

In Varir Village, Dorothy had directly led the Fifth Knight Order and charged into the beast tide.

Without Dorothy, Felyn would have been unable to withstand the beast tide's assault no matter what.

"Then what do you want?"

Dorothy giggled, lifted Felyn's hands, and placed them on her head.

Her purple eyes were no longer hazy but had become incredibly bright.

"Just pat my head, Brother Felyn, and tell me I've been a good girl."

"That's way too cheesy." Felyn patted Dorothy's head, feeling like he couldn't quite say the words.

Dorothy's cheeks immediately puffed up. She pouted, crossed her arms, turned her head away, and huffed lightly.

Her Highness the Princess was displeased.

"Alright, alright." Felyn's hand ruffled Dorothy's hair, smoothing out the strands that had curled up.

"Dorothy, thank you for coming to save me."

Felyn's hand smoothed Dorothy's ruffled feathers, and also smoothed her heart.

"Then does Brother Felyn love me a little more?"

As soon as she spoke, the room suddenly became very quiet.

The curtains hung beside the window, silently guarding everything within the room.

The moonlight solidified on the carpet, no longer moving.

Dorothy's voice was no longer lively, no longer syrupy sweet.

She lay quietly in Felyn's arms, her eyelashes drooping slightly.

"Brother Felyn, today... do you love me a little more? Today... can you start to like Dorothy?"

"Even the Felyn outside the contract, even the real Felyn, I like him very, very much. So... Brother Felyn... can you please not reject me?"

Felyn was silent for a long time, listening to the sound of Dorothy's heartbeat against his chest.

"If we're calculating by affection points, you saving me gets plus 50 points, and feeding me gets plus 20 points."

Dorothy tilted her face up, her lips slightly parted, a hint of joy in her eyes. "Then doesn't that mean... doesn't that mean I already have 70 points?"

Felyn's hand rested on Dorothy's head. "But kidnapping me gets a 50-point deduction, so right now it's still only 20 points."

"Aww~" Dorothy let out a long, regretful sigh. "How could this be? Then I only have 20 points."

But at least it wasn't a negative number, at least it wasn't zero.

As long as it increases little by little, it will reach 100 one day.

Right?

Dorothy nuzzled her head against Felyn's body, a series of coquettish whimpers coming from her throat.

"Brother Felyn, the night isn't over yet. There are still so many things Dorothy wants to do with Brother Felyn."

Felyn suddenly had a very bad feeling. "What do you want to do?"

"Hehe, to increase Brother Felyn's affection for me, of course!"

"D-Dorothy?! N-No--!!!"

Felyn pressed his hand against Dorothy's forehead, desperately trying to think of a way out.

If he didn't do something, he was really going to be forced by Dorothy.

"Dorothy, why don't... why don't we play a game?"

"A game? Brother Felyn, I don't want to play a game. Games aren't fun, Dorothy is fun."

Dorothy's eyes and her tender body, which looked like you could squeeze water from it, were telling Felyn: Don't play games, play with me!

"G-Games aren't fun, but if the winner can make one request..."

"Really? Any request at all?"

"But it can't be too excessive!" Felyn emphasized.

"Alright, alright." Dorothy reluctantly agreed. She also wanted to play a happy game with Brother Felyn. "Then how about we see who can slide the farthest on the floor? Brother Felyn, if you lose..."

"I won't lose!"

For the sake of little Felyn, Felyn was going all out!

Capital District, Royal Academy.

In Viloti and Zervanie's dormitory, Zervanie stood with her hands on her hips, looking at the new pink caterpillar plushie on the living room sofa.

"Viloti, did you go on a date with Felyn today?"

"Mhm."

"Y-You two didn't do anything, did you?"

Viloti didn't answer.

But the shy blush that gradually appeared on her face had already answered for her.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!!!" Zervanie stomped her foot, extremely vexed.

She shouldn't have gone to that event.

The moment she leaves for a bit, those two get to have their sweet world for two!

"Knock, knock."

A knock on the door interrupted Zervanie's questioning.

After opening the door, Zervanie looked at the two people outside with some surprise.

"Sorry to bother you so late." The one who spoke was Felyn's roommate, the Empire's fourth "Prince," Sylvain.

"Excuse me, is Felyn in your dorm tonight? I sent him a message but got no reply. I'm a little worried something might have happened to him."

Standing behind Sylvain was the Empire's third Princess with short, ice-blue hair, Her Highness Lecia.
