Also before starting the chapter. A lot of you guys are saying that the chapters feel like AI slob.

I just corrected the spellings for this chapter so tell which one do you guys prefer.
Also if possible do drop some stones as well!!!!
Let's start now.
--------------------
After giving some pointers to Noelle and Lolopechka, Sekke was now out of the Royal Castle and was now on his date with Secre.
"It's been a long time since we went out like this. Just the two of us," said Secre.
"True, but before this you were a bird," replied Sekke.
"Which one do you like better? The bird form or this form?" asked Secre.
"Hmm... that might be tough. On one hand, both have their own types of cuteness. On the other, I have done stuff to you that I cannot do with the bird. This form, I guess. Looks sexy and cute at the same time," answered Sekke with a confident smile.
"Pervert. Such a pervert," replied Secre with a smirk but gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"Hm? Being a pervert has its advantages now?"
"That depends. Wait till night and you might get more advantages," replied Secre as she leaned in a bit closer to him.
"What if I get impatient and want to receive some advantages right now? You were teasing me quite a bit in there," said Sekke as he leaned in as well.
A faint blush appeared on Secre's cheeks.
"...What do you want?"
"You sure want to go that route this early?"
"...If that's what you want to do, then yes. You don't know how long I have waited for you," replied Secre with a smile.
Sekke smiled and pressed his lips on hers.
"I don't know how you felt while I was gone, but just know that I too felt lonely back there."
Secre nodded and kissed him once again before backing away from him.
"That's enough advantages for now. You owe me a date, so let's go," said Secre and gestured for him to take her hand.
"Let's get going then. Any recommendations you have, Lady Secre?" asked Sekke as he held her hand and planted a kiss on top of it.
"Hm? Acting like a noble now? I guess I will play along," replied Secre as she let Sekke escort her.
The two soon started wandering around the town, checking out how different the culture was here compared to the Clover Kingdom.
Sekke and Secre first decided to change into local clothing and went straight to a clothing store, much to Secre's enjoyment.
Sekke smiled as well; the clothes Secre chose looked quite good on her, and he thanked her for giving him some nice eye candy.
After that, they decided to go on an eating spree like they used to back in Clover Kingdom.
Even though Secre changed back to her human form, her hobby of trying and enjoying different foods was still present.
The two were enjoying their food when suddenly a huge commotion occurred.
Apparently, Charmy attacked a town along with some beasts from the nearby forest to steal the food from the town.
Secre sighed seeing that, thinking that their date was going to be interrupted once again.
However, contrary to her expectations, Sekke paid for the food, stored all the remaining dishes in his storage, and grabbed Secre and blinked away from the town.
The two soon appeared far away from the town near a riverbank.
Secre blinked in surprise.
"What? Can't have my long-awaited date with you get interrupted. Let the others deal with some issues too," said Sekke and took out a sheet from his storage and laid it on the ground.
"After you, my lady," gestured Sekke as Secre smiled and sat down on the sheet after taking off her shoes.
Sekke stared at her slender legs for a while, making Secre smirk and raise her skirt a bit, trying to tease Sekke.
"Your eyes can't help themselves, huh?" asked Secre with a mischievous tone.
"...Don't tempt me," said Sekke and reluctantly looked away.
"You sure you don't want to look? I will give you a special service," whispered Secre.
Hearing the devilish whisper, Sekke peeked a bit, only to find Secre tying her hair in a ponytail and being on her knees.
Gulp.
"What do you say, My Dark Lord? Shall I indulge you a bit?" asked Secre and smirked on noticing a sizable bulge in Sekke's pants.
--------------------
Later that night:
Sekke and Secre were done with their date and were now returning back to the Royal Palace, though a lot of noticeable marks were present around Secre's neck.
"You sure you don't want to cover those?" asked Sekke.
"I want to brag and warn the others who are eyeing you. Fortunately or unfortunately, you tempt a lot of women," said Secre.
"Well, I can't help it. The Dark Lord does have a lot of charm."
"Can't deny that, after all, I am one of those women — a bad one at that too," replied Secre and held his hand tightly.
"...Don't make it harder for me," replied Sekke.
"...You really lack self-control."
"I have endured a lot of loneliness, not to mention you act very seductively. Of course, I won't be able to hold back if the girl I like tempts me so much," replied Sekke.
"Later at night. We need to meet with others now," said Secre and pecked his cheek.
"...Food can wait."
"I am hungry. So no."
"You sure make the Dark Lord suffer, woman."
"I have the Dark Lord wrapped around my finger."
The two continued their pointless banter for a while and soon reached the palace.
The moment they noticed Sekke and Secre, the guards bowed politely and made way for Sekke. He was, after all, a very important guest of their Queen.
"Keep up the good work, guys," said Sekke, making the guards nod at him.
Sekke nodded back, and the two walked through the gate and soon reached the area where everyone gathered after their training.
"Sekke! You are back now! Let's go for a bath!!" exclaimed Asta.
"Let's go, my rival!!" exclaimed Leo.
"Sekke. When will you fight me?" asked Luck.
"Bath? Let's go. Luck, let's fight tomorrow."
The boys happily gathered together and headed to the bath.
"What are those marks?" asked Anna as she looked at Secre.
"What do you think?" asked Secre back with a smirk.
"All right, both of you, let us go for a bath as well. Don't fight," said Mimosa, mediating between the two of them.
She then looked at Noelle, who had no energy to move and was simply lying on the sofa with a lifeless look on her face. Undine roughed her up a bit too much.
Lolopechka was no better since she too decided to train the magic she learned from Sekke today and was totally drained as well.
Undine grabbed both of them in her watery arms and gestured for the other girls to head to the bath.
--------------------
Once done with their baths, all of them gathered in the dining hall once again and started their dinner.
"Why do you look like you are dying?" asked Sekke.
"Whose fault do you think it is?" asked Noelle without any energy behind her voice.
"Exodia, help them energize," ordered Sekke as the miniature Sun Spirit King floated up and used his magic once again.
[Sun Spirit Magic: Morning Glory — Dawn's Blessing]
The familiar golden dome appeared around them, and all of them immediately felt their fatigue wash away.
"Ah~ So refreshing~" muttered Lolopechka, enjoying the gentle heat from the magic.
"So soothing~" muttered Noelle, feeling alive once again.
"Amazing!!! My muscles are recovered!! I feel like I can do 10,000 push-ups right now!!" exclaimed Asta, feeling the muscle soreness washing away.
"Glad to be of service," replied Sekke and focused back on his dinner.
The others joined him as well, and the lively dinner began.
--------------------
Once dinner was over, Sekke was led by Undine to the room where he would be resting during his stay at the Heart Kingdom.
"I hope the room is to your liking, Lord Sekke. If you feel the need for anything, don't hesitate to call for me," said Undine and went back to Lolopechka.
Sekke looked around the room and nodded in satisfaction. It looked grand — fitting for the Dark Lord.
KnockKnock
Hearing the knocks behind him, Sekke opened the door and spotted Secre, Mimosa, and Anna standing there in their loungewear.
"Nighttime service," said Anna in her usual emotionless voice and entered the room.
"Take care of me, Sekke-san..." said Mimosa with reddened cheeks and walked in as well.
"Time for the pervert to receive his advantages," said Secre with a smirk as she got in and closed the door behind her, making sure to seal it with her magic.
No disturbance allowed.
Sekke looked towards the bed and spotted the three of them sitting there, inviting him with their defenseless looks.
"I will make sure none of you get any sleep tonight..." said Sekke and walked towards the three of them.
