Sariah had left us after a few minutes of staring. It seemed that what she had come to see had not happened at all.
It was clear from a glance that she was expecting some kind of reaction from Morgana toward me, something related to Romie.
There was only one possible reason for that: she had been following me.
I knew that she didn't like me particularly or… at all, for that matter. But for her to follow me in hopes that Morgana would come to hate me or do something of the sort was crazy. It was a good thing that I had tamed her already, or things could have actually taken a wrong turn here.
But luckily, Morgana was mine, and there was nothing she could do about it. The moment I had her in my embrace, all that tension disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Don't worry. I would never leave you behind…" I muttered in her ear as I saw her visibly blush once again.
Ever since that night we had spent together, we had gotten much closer. The awkwardness between us had disappeared right away and had given way to something much greater.
In fact, now that we were in each other's arms, my hands had naturally moved over her breasts, teasing her a little, playing with them without any shame.
"S-Stop… not that early."
I smirked and continued without a care in the world. Her body relaxed almost instantly as her breathing became more ragged by the minute. With only some slight touching, I could feel her whole body giving out.
And I wasn't sure if it was the Taming's effect or me.
But, truth be told, I didn't care.
I pushed her against the bed, her face as red as a tomato, and grabbed both her wrists, holding onto them tightly.
After all, I hadn't forgotten about her strange personality of being a masochist.
"From now on, when we're alone, our roles will be reversed. You will be my slave, and I will be your Master. Understood?" I asked with a very serious look on my face.
Her hot breath brushed against my face, and I noticed her panties becoming wet by the second.
'Seems like this is working wonders.'
"Y-Yes, M…M-Master."
I smirked and began undressing.
It was time to reward her for the good work.
"Mhm~!"
Already, moans were slipping out of her mouth.
I could only hope that she wouldn't be too loud; otherwise, others would hear us.
[You have unlocked Dirty Talk I.]
[Dirty Talk I - When dirty talking Morgana Vera, her libido and obedience increase significantly.]
[Emotional Anchor I is now Emotional Anchor II.]
[Intimate Presence I is now Intimate Presence II.]
Morgana was now sleeping. The fun we had… had been a bit too much for her from the looks of it, and the system seemed to recognize that as I got a bunch of new rewards.
Not only that, but I finally got a new Perk from her Taming Tree—a Perk that also unlocked new ones. One of which seemed to be a major one, as it had a skill attached to it.
[Skill Sharing: By having intimate moments with all your tamed targets, you will be able to comprehend some of their skills and use them as your own.]
[Cost: 3 Affection Hearts.]
[Current Number of Affection Hearts: 1]
My eyes widened.
This Perk was totally overpowered.
What was so great about it was that it would be applicable to all tamed targets. All of them. I would be able to have the skills of all the heroines by having intimate moments with them. If I were to combine all of their skills with mine, then I would be totally unstoppable. There was no one who would be able to stop me.
There was only one problem: I needed to obtain two Affection Hearts as quickly as possible.
There were only two targets that I could use at the moment, one easier to charm than the other.
There was Sariah, which was basically a lost cause at this point since she hated me, and then there was Romie.
Though it wouldn't be easy. She's not the easiest to charm. It definitely won't be as smooth as with Morgana. After all, Morgana could almost be considered a tutorial based on how easy it was to tame her. There was no difficulty at all.
But with the heroines, it wouldn't be the same at all. I could already feel it.
The key with Romie would be the Awakening Ceremony; she had told me last time that she would be watching it with attention.
I could only pray that whatever class I would awaken would impress her and interest her in me. Because if it didn't, the path to gaining two Affection Hearts would be much harder than anticipated.
Still, it was either that, or I would have to wait a long time, maybe until the Entrance of the Royal Academy to unlock those skills.
I got quite lucky to meet two heroines. However, it shouldn't happen again. The remaining heroines would never go to the Vera Estate. At least, not that I know of. Most of them are much too preoccupied with preparing for the Entrance of the Royal Academy.
And so would I, as soon as I awakened my class; my training would begin. After all, I couldn't forget about my goal here. I needed to enroll in the Royal Academy and begin taming the heroines.
Because if I didn't, then this character, Zale Alaric, would be dying in the very first arc of the game's story. My fate was doomed, and I needed to make sure that I could change it.
