Chapter 3062: Emilia Under the Moon
Considering that it was very cold on the deck, Xia De walked from the cabin corridor to the deck using Lagley's Jump after leaving the banquet hall. As soon as he appeared, the cold night wind made him shiver, even though he was only wearing a shirt and formal wear. But it was just a shiver.
Emilia was at the front of the highest deck, looking at the silver-white woodlands in the night view at this moment. She heard Xia De's quick footsteps, and then felt something placed on her shoulder. Turning her head to look at her shoulder, she found it was a white fur cloak with a velvet collar.
Xia De stood side by side with her, looking at the night view under the starlight together. The snow had stopped long ago, and there were only a few sparse clouds under the starry sky, so the starry sea looked so brilliant at this moment that it was hard for people to believe that a thrilling war was still going on here a day ago.
"Although this dress is very beautiful and suits you, it is not suitable for you to stay on the deck for a long time, especially since we are in the air now."
Xia De warned, and Emilia, who was pulling the right collar of the cloak with her left hand across her chest, nodded gently. She had thought of many words before waiting for Xia De to come over, but at this moment, she couldn't say a word.
She wanted to recall the "love advice" given to her by the dragon maids, and then found that it seemed to have reached this step, those dragon witches with big tails were more inclined to kiss directly, rather than chatting about the scenery and weather like Emilia herself thought:
"I said in the summer that summer passed very quickly, but this autumn felt too long for me."
She said in a low voice, moving closer to Xia De, but in fact, the two were almost shoulder to shoulder.
Xia De originally wanted to say "as long as you think about the exam week being only a month and a half away, you will feel that winter will also pass very quickly," but he immediately rejected this kind of bullying little elf words:
"But in any case, the autumn of 1854 has passed. Many years later, we will definitely miss this special autumn, miss us standing together looking at the forest under the moonlight."
Emilia whispered her agreement, thinking of what the unknowable lady summoned by Xia De did, so she hooked Xia De's little finger with her little finger:
"Miss Danister said she would take me back to the academy tomorrow. We have many things to handle later, so you and I probably won't be able to stand together and talk like this for a long time... When the next Chosen One appears, remember to call me, okay? Although most of my power was left on the Crystal Wang Zuo, I am still a Chosen One."
Xia De nodded:
"I promise you, but the premise is that the professors at the academy agree to you going out."
"I am an adult elf now, and I don't need to be subject to so many constraints."
Emilia said quite proudly, and wanted to tell Xia De what adulthood meant for academy students, but the Outsider shook his head:
"Emilia, growing up doesn't mean freedom, but rather more shackles... sorry, it doesn't seem appropriate to say this now."
He turned slightly:
"How about this, let's celebrate your adulthood alone. I don't know the specific process of the adult ceremony of modern elves, but I know that inviting a girl to dance under the moon is definitely no problem."
Saying this, he made a lifting action with his right palm, so he relied on the blessing of Eternal Light to control the starlight and moonlight sprinkled on the deck to become brighter.
Then he reached out to Emilia to make an invitation, and the elf girl put her hand on his hand:
"It seems there is no music."
She said this deliberately, but let Xia De not worry:
"I will."
Concentrating slightly to merge himself with the forest, he then controlled the forest to play music. The howling night wind, the trembling branches, the animals stepping on the snow in the forest, even the owls taking off and flapping their wings, and even the sound made by the Radiant Messenger itself, all integrated into this natural "song."
Xia De then held Emilia's hand and danced on the wide deck. Although Emilia didn't have many opportunities to dance at school, she had lived for half a century after all, and had received professional training from the dragon maid miss at the Witch Academy, so her dancing skills were quite good.
The forest song was very soothing, so Emilia was almost leaning on Xia De's chest as he stepped. She felt her face getting redder and redder, but she liked it, so she wanted to bring up some "stimulating" topics:
"Do you know, Xia De, St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy strictly prohibits any form of love between students. Of course, Gao Huan students have privileges, but Gao Huan students who haven't graduated have their own academic pursuits, so they rarely fall in love at the academy."
She said in a low voice, and the voice seemed to be about to merge into this song.
"Why is love prohibited?"
"The surface reason is that the academy must ensure that the number of students at the end of each school year is less than or equal to the number at the beginning of the school year;
The fundamental reason is that the origin of St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy was a girls' school, so it was managed very strictly in this regard. I heard that Zalas Literature Academy and Serkeses Higher Medical Academy are the same."
Emilia felt that Xia De's heartbeat was so fast at this moment, and then after the reminder of the voice in her ear, she found that it was the sound of her own heartbeat:
"I... still remember you promised me that I could realize one of my wishes when the story of the Vesta Woodlands was about to end, right?"
Xia De was not ignorant of Emilia's thoughts:
"Of course I remember, Emilia. You put the crown on me, and I am willing to hold your hand and continue moving forward. This is a contract witnessed by time for you and for me."
"Yes, Xia De."
The elf with pointed ears, whose tips were already red, finally asked that question in the forest song:
"Then are you willing to kiss me? Xia De."
She looked up at the Outsider, and Xia De was also looking down at her. Under the starlight, although Emilia still looked immature, her eyes no longer had any softness; Xia De, illuminated by the moonlight, was still the Xia De that Emilia first met. He hadn't changed at all.
"I have... grown up."
"No, don't say this, you saying this will make me feel very guilty."
Xia De stopped her urgently. Emilia wanted to laugh but felt she couldn't break the atmosphere. Xia De was very reliable but became very strange only at such times.
So she maintained the posture of being held by Xia De, and her body glowed slightly. In the emerald light, the little elf turned into a big elf, with a taller height and a better figure—even the evening dress became bigger:
"Then is this okay?"
The blonde elf girl asked with a smile, actively hugged Xia De's neck, and kissed Xia De's lips, which were as fiery as his soul, with her lips that were a bit cold.
"Intense kiss! Intense kiss!"
Emilia, who looked calm but was actually very panicked in her heart, reminded herself, recalling the little knowledge she learned from Ajelina, and actively...
"Too impatient."
The ship girl in the banquet hall "saw" this scene and couldn't help shaking her head. So Xilis, who was standing beside her
"Did something happen?"
The Ship Girl, ever eager to share, leaned in to whisper the news in her ear, and so Siris also began to smile:
"Indeed, she was too impatient; I hope Xia De wasn't startled. But such green, girlish feelings are truly interesting. Perhaps I can ask Amelia for this memory; a physical object solidified from this memory would surely become the best of collectibles."
"And what about you?"
The Ship Girl asked the blonde Siris:
"The relationship between that Earth Witch and Xia De has already reached this point; why do you still keep your relationship just one step away from the final one? You aren't a witch, so you shouldn't have the same reservations they do."
The girl from the "Forgotten Sect" shook her head gently:
"I only hope to leave behind the most beautiful memory as we advance our relationship. Just like Vanessa's dance under the moon or Amelia's coronation on the throne. I do not wish to be forgotten; Father forgot me for the sake of the earth, and once is enough for such things... I will wait for the opportunity."
The girls seemed to love kissing, and even the elf was no exception. Xia De did not know if it was the moonlight tonight that made Amelia a bit muddled, or if it was because this was the first banquet she had been allowed to drink at since coming of age, leading her to be a bit indulgent. In any case, the girl who kissed him on the deck did many things the Outsider would never have expected her to do.
This kiss lasted a long time. When Xia De let go of Amelia, the elf girl under the moonlight was panting heavily, her emerald green eyes appearing slightly flushed.
Her cheeks were also flushed, and she stared at Xia De with an expression he was very familiar with—a look that often appeared on the faces of the girls in Xia De's bedroom at night:
"Angelina and Iluna didn't lie to me..."
"Sorry, what?"
"I feel like my heart is about to jump out of my throat."
Xia De knew very well she wasn't lying, because her breathing frequency was truly alarmingly high at that moment:
"If you don't believe me, you can try touching it."
"What?"
"I..."
Amelia realized she had said something abnormal while her emotions were abnormal, but unlike the reserved Iluna or Angelina, who always thought things through, the free-spirited elf decided to go along with her abnormal emotions at that moment.
She caught Xia De's hand and pulled it to her chest, asking in the midst of his astonishment:
"Can you feel my heartbeat?"
"... Of course."
Strong and powerful.
"Also, don't laugh."
【Gentle moonlight, a bold girl, a green elf, and an astonished you.】
"She" described the scene. Amelia wanted to continue, but her limited knowledge and experience had brought her to the end of her actions. The books Angelina shared did not include what should be done after this; although Amelia understood the peak of male-female relationships, there were still steps missing between her current state and the final step.
