My Date

"Coachman, take us to the best restaurant in the capital," said Victor, holding Evelynn's hand.

"Okay, Heir of Time," said the coachman, and the carriage started moving.

"Evelynn.." said Victor while looking at her, but didn't get any response as she stared at their hands holding each other.

"Evelynn... Evelynn!"

"Uh?... Yes! What is it?"

"Let's have lunch first and then i will take you to travel across the nation's tourist spots, if you have any location in solaris that you want to visit, tell me alright?"

"How can we visit all those places when they are so far away from each other?", asked evelynn looking clearly confused.

"You will get to know first, let's eat something.." said Victor, opening the door other carriage and extending his hand again.

Evelynn gasped as she didn't even notice, and they arrived. After all this carriage walked very fast on land and with an AI coachman, there was no way of crashing or hitting, and even if hit, there would be no damage due to protection formations.

'Sunshine Restaurants'

'Even my family doesn't eat here until they have a special occasion,' when she heard Victor speak..

"If you ever marry me and come to my territory, I will let you taste the best food possible, not food from such a place," said Victor, feeling a bit disappointed. Being someone from the modern world, this restaurant was barely 1 1-star.

"Oh no no, it is a really good hotel, it is the best restaurant food chain on the continent," said Evelynnn.

"Oh... alright, let's go inside," they went inside.

"Welcom,e Sir, are you here foa lunch with your wife?" Said the receptionist. Making Evelynn become a pressure cooker.

"Yes, Ihave brought my 'wife' here for lunch, please book us a private dining room."

'Wife?!' She looked at him as if questioning why he said that.

Victo, ignoring her, continued smiling.

'Hmph! You always try to tease me! I am no longer gonna play along, let's see how long you will keep up! I am not as naive as I might seem.'

They went to their room, and Victor ordered the best dishes possible here for two.

Soon, the food came,

As they both started eating while chatting with each other.

Soon, Victor took a spoon and brought it towards her face,

"Quick! Open your mouth!" he said.

She opened her mouth to eat the curry he gave.

She ate everything and slightly nodded. But then she saw something and got a bit surprised.

Victor brought the spoon closer the his mouth and licked it.That might have had some of my saliva... isn't this an indirect k-', she thought, but then heard Victor speaking.

"Tell me something about yourself, your family, friends, likes, dislikes, goals, ambitions, etc, etc."

From what Victor got to know, she had a brother who had gone into isolation and was yet cultivating for a year now. She had her parents and only one friend,whoh was her attendant. Her cultivation was the same as Victor, First stage of the disciple realm.

"Evelyn. It is serious, so listen to me.", said Victor with a solemn look.

"What?" asked Evelynn, looking at his solemn face.

"Stop Cultivating.", said Victor.

"Huh? why? i have already reached 6th Star, why do you want me to stop?", said Evelynn.

"I cannot explain it to you right now, for that you will need to come to my home where I can explain to you everything properly, but let me make one thing clear for you... If you don't stop cultivating, it will be very harmful for your cultivation now."

[...]

Meanwhile, inside the new manor of victor, inside the gates, suddenly a spatial crack opened. from it a black carriage came out. this where victor's parents, which butler had brought.

"We have arrived at the current manor of the chronis family, elders.", said the butler, coming out, opening the gate, and slightly bowing his head. The Eclipse knights could teleport to each other using shadows, so they just came by teleporting home.

"Welcome to the Chronis Family Manor, Elders. I Am Oracle, Assistant of Heir Victor Chronis. I will explain to you both everything."

[...]

Time passed, and slowly it was evening.

Victor and Evelynn went shopping, circus, and travelling across the city since Evelynn didn't want to go anywhere else at the moment.

At the moment in the evening, they were walking around the park, still talking with each other.

"So you see, my mother always used to think that i would persue swordsmanship because my family used to be a lineage of swordsmanship, but when I saw how beautiful ice laws where, I knew that I just had to learn them." said evelynn.

"So Evelyn.. did you like this date of ours?" asked Victor

"Mhm, I did! It was very fun talking with you!" said Evelynn 'It's a pity that the date is coming to an end.'

"So next time, I will take you to my territory for a date. Will that be good?" said Victor with a smile.

'Next Time? Will we have a next date as well? Yes!!'

"Yes!" said Evelynn as if Victor might change his mind later.

"So you need to fulfill one wish of mine now.", said Victor.

"Hmmm, Yeah. What is it?" asked Evelynn.

"Nothing, just close your eyes...." said Victor with a playful smile pasted on his face.

Evelynn, clearly confused by what he planned to do, still reluctantly closed her eyes, after all, she promised.

Seeing her flushed face and trembling lips, Victor slowly closed his eyes, his heart pounding in sync with hers. He leaned in, his breath warm against her skin, each inch between them melting away in slow, agonizing anticipation.

Their lips drew closer—so close Evelynn could feel the soft brush of his breath, the faint scent of his skin. Her eyes fluttered open in surprise, but it was too late.

Victor's lips pressed gently against hers, soft at first, testing, savoring. Evelynn gasped, her body frozen, her mind ablaze.

'He... He kissed me! He kissed me!' her thoughts screamed, her heart a chaotic mess of shock and yearning.

But then something changed.

Victor deepened the kiss, his hand cradling the side of her face, fingers brushing against her skin like silk. His tongue slipped past her parted lips, teasing, tasting. It danced with hers—slow, exploratory, then more urgent, more desperate—as if they'd been aching for this moment forever.

Evelynn responded in kind, her tongue intertwining with his in a slow, sensual rhythm, their breaths mingling, their bodies drawing closer. Time vanished. There was no kingdom, no academy—only the fire igniting between their lips.

Victor's other hand found her waist, pulling her closer still, until not even air dared pass between them. Her fingers clutched at his shirt, grounding herself in the storm of sensation.

In that kiss, nothing else existed but them.

"Be my girlfriend.", said Victor, their lips gently parting with a stream of saliva connecting their tongue.

Y-Yess!", 'Yes! Yes! Yes!', responded Evelynn, nodding.

"Let me drop you home.", said Victor.

"Yes", said Evelynn, still absentminded due to the kiss.

They arrived at the Silverbane manor uninterrupted.

"We've Arrived, wifey," said Victor, trying to tease her.

"Yes.", said Evelynn absent-mindedly.

"I will come to pick you up tomorrow again for the academy."

"Yes."

"I will ask for your hand tomorrow as well."

"Yes.", said Evelynn, still absent-minded, but quickly snapped back.

"W- W- What? did you said something?" asked evelynn, clearly didn't hearing anything they talked about.

"Hahaha, nothing, nothing.. we have arrived. Ii will come to pick u up tomorrow, See you!" said Victor, gently kissing her on the lips again.

"wh- what? why did you do that?! What if someone saw us?", asked evelynn, way more flushed than when they kissed before.

"what? isn't it natural to kiss you whenever I part ways with you even if for a few hours? after all, you are my girlfriend now. and what if someone saw us! it doesn't matters." said victor, acting offended.

"Um, sorry..." Evelynn didn't see through the act.

"Hmph! you need to take the initiative for the kiss if you want to be sorry.", said victor demanding her.

Evelynn, surprised and equally embarrassed, still complied and gave him a peck. After that, she ran away from the carriage as if someone might catch her, directly to her room.
