An unknown amount of time had passed. When the sky outside was just turning slightly bright, Zeri also groggily opened her eyes.
Her head was somewhat chaotic; Zeri felt as if she had forgotten what happened yesterday, just like the legendary state of drunkenness. Climbing out of bed and freezing for a short while, Zeri seemed to remember something and couldn't help swallowing her saliva. But looking at the tidy bed and blanket, she began to doubt whether she had remembered wrong.
Simply, Zeri pulled back the blanket. Looking at her lower abdomen bulging in a small curve, her gaze showed a bit more complexity, intertwining unease and anticipation. Ever since returning home, because she constantly needed to test the stability of the equipment under her different emotional states, Zeri basically secretly did some shameful things with Faen every day.
But even so, the current Zeri still couldn't help swallowing... So this place can also be used to do it? Doesn't Faen find it dirty here?... Oh, Faen seemed to have helped her clean up a bit.
Pursing her lips, Zeri didn't continue thinking about it, but reached out and touched it nervously. This touch was no small matter; along with her body's movement, the things originally stored inside quickly flowed outward. This made Zeri slightly panicked, and she hurriedly used her hands to catch it. And the fresh milk, even after a night, still maintained an astonishing wetness and viscosity. This made Zeri quickly realize that the intermittent memories in her head were not fantasies, and also made Zeri feel her body inexplicably heating up slightly.
It was also in this process that the expression on Zeri's face began to change rapidly. Sometimes nervous, sometimes relaxed, sometimes uneasy, sometimes happy... In the end, it turned into a dissatisfied soft hum. She just silently clamped her perky buttocks tight, feeling the lingering aftertaste circulating in her body, and hummed softly: "Leaving just like this... Bastard Faen, stinky Faen, bad Faen."
"Uh..."
Accompanied by a slightly awkward voice coming from the side, Zeri's body suddenly stiffened on the bed. Realizing something, in just a few breaths, Zeri's body went from the sluggishness of just waking up to being filled with an unnatural blush. Even if he couldn't see Zeri's face clearly from the side, Faen, who had already finished washing up, could still see Zeri's red bean tips rapidly standing erect along with her shame.
"Good morning?" Faen greeted somewhat hesitantly.
And Zeri went whoosh! and drilled directly into the blanket. After being muffled for a good while, she finally revealed half of her small head with a face full of shame and anger.
"You... when did you come back?!"
"From when you pulled back the blanket." Faen shrugged. Meeting Zeri's flushed face and widened eyes, he came to the bedside, then naturally got into the covers, ignoring Zeri's symbolic resistance and struggle, and hugged her in his arms: "How do you feel? Are you okay?"
"Not good, not good at all! It's terrible!"
Zeri retorted angrily, but soon her voice faded away as Faen's hands wrapped around her. Panting for a while, Zeri also said softly: "The stuff inside... is going to flow out... be gentle."
"Don't worry."
Faen said while covering it with his hand. Through his manipulation of water, the liquid that was flowing out quickly drilled back into Zeri's belly, causing the small curve that had flattened out to rise again. And as the feeling of being filled struck once more, Zeri, who already had no strength to resist, immediately became even weaker, sprawling in Faen's arms like a boneless ball of flesh.
Faen's large hands restlessly slid all the way down Zeri's smooth back, kneading the firm and plump flesh of her buttocks. The finger marks and red impressions left after last night's crazy ravaging were exceptionally conspicuous on her fair skin. His fingers deliberately toyed gently at that slightly red, swollen, and not fully closed hole, bringing out a trace of viscous white turbidity.
"Ngh... stop it, it's still numb down there..." Zeri let out a sweet and sticky moan. Her legs subconsciously tried to close, but were forcefully wedged apart by one of Faen's thick thighs.
"But it looks like it hasn't eaten its fill yet." Faen's deep voice sounded in Zeri's ear. Along with his breathing, a scorching airflow sprayed onto her sensitive earlobe. That giant object, fully awakened, thick and hard like an iron pestle, was maliciously pressing against Zeri's cleavage through the thin fabric. She could even clearly feel the glans crushing back and forth at the muddy opening.
Zeri's breathing instantly became rapid; the aphrodisiac effect of the "joy factor" remaining in her body was ignited once again. Her flower hole contracted uncontrollably, secreting a large amount of clear love juices. Mixing with the thick semen left over from last night, it made the root of Faen's thigh soaking wet.
"Faen... no, Mom is still outside..." Zeri pushed against Faen's solid chest in a half-hearted refusal, but her watery eyes were filled with desire.
"As long as you keep your voice down, she won't hear." Faen chuckled, abruptly flipping Zeri over and pinning her beneath him. Without any extra nonsense, he roughly tore away the obstructive fabric, gripped that thick, massive meat stick bulging with veins, aimed at that tender flower heart that was already flooded, and thrust his hips violently. With a "squelch", he buried it all the way to the hilt without reservation.
"Aha——!" Stimulated by this sudden penetration, Zeri arched her snow-white neck. The extreme pleasure instantly drowned her reason, and her tight inner walls dead-locked onto the invading giant object. The room immediately echoed with the slapping sounds of flesh and lewd watery noises.
"Don't you think..." Zeri rubbed her belly and whispered: "It's dirty here...?"
To this, Faen also smiled and rubbed Zeri's head, explaining: "Didn't I help you clean it up a bit? So don't worry, right now there is no dirty stuff in your belly except for milk."
While speaking, Faen gently pressed on Zeri's lower abdomen. Although it was just a slight movement, Zeri could clearly feel the heavy vitality inside constantly sloshing around.
But hearing Faen's words, Zeri also blinked. After confirming that Faen was truly enjoying it, and not just forcing himself to choose that spot to take care of her, she felt relieved and also hummed softly: "Who says there are no dirty things? Isn't my belly full of it? But forget it, I forgive you... Hmm, how did you feel last night? Was it comfortable?"
"...Comfortable to death."
"Liar." Zeri lightly bit Faen's arm that was causing trouble in front of her: "If it was really that comfortable, how could you look like nothing happened... Hmph, you just wait, sooner or later, one day I'll make you beg for mercy!"
"Okay, okay, beg for mercy." Faen rubbed Zeri's head. Feeling the warm jade in his embrace, having tasted the sweetness, he raised his head once again.
And feeling the divine majesty between his thighs right behind her, a hint of nervousness appeared on Zeri's face. Although she already knew that Faen was deliberately loosening the gates to take care of her, yesterday it was done when she wasn't fully conscious, but now...
"Didn't we already do it twice last night?" Zeri's breathing was slightly rapid as she said: "How do you still have so much energy now..."
Sensing Zeri's nervousness, Faen didn't force it. He just rubbed quietly, waiting for Zeri's decision.
And sensing Faen's intention, Zeri also hummed, then swallowed her saliva to push down the panic in her heart. She broke free from Faen's embrace, lay face down on the bed, and used her hands to spread the roundness apart.
Feeling Faen's gaze, Zeri turned her head uneasily. Her mouth squirmed a few times before humming: "Seeing as you took decent care of me—Mmph!"
Before Zeri could finish speaking, Faen's grand army had already penetrated deep into the hinterland. Feeling this intense sensation while fully conscious, the words Zeri hadn't yet spoken were instantly stuck in her throat. She could only cling tightly to Faen's body amidst her body's intense trembling.
An hour later, Faen changed his clothes, feeling refreshed and invigorated. On the other side, having used water control to clean the sweat and stains off her body, the continuously dehydrated Zeri pointed at her mouth towards Faen.
Seeing this, Faen paused for a moment, then began to undo his belt again—this caused Zeri to panic, and she hurriedly shook her head, saying: "I'm just thirsty, I want to drink water!"
Faen shrugged and sent over a ball of clean water. After taking small sips to replenish her fluids, Zeri glared resentfully at Faen's bulge that had immediately swelled against his pants because of her request, and said full of unwillingness: "Are you an animal! The biology books didn't say it would be like this!"
How many times had it been, yet Faen still looked like nothing had happened. While feeling deeply struck, Zeri also felt a slight nervousness and unease in the bottom of her heart...
"There, there, when you slowly become stronger, you'll be able to understand this feeling."
Rubbing Zeri's head, Faen also said: "Alright, time to go eat breakfast, don't let Mom wait anxiously."
"Oh."
Zeri nodded, then tidied up her clothes and moved her body a bit. Immediately following, a hint of surprise was revealed in Zeri's gaze.
"Strange."
"What's wrong?" Faen looked at Zeri.
And Zeri moved her arms a couple of times, then hopped twice, and immediately said with radiant eyes: "I feel... I feel like I have endless energy in my body! Especially since you guy don't know how to show tender affection for a woman at all! Why do I feel no pain on my body whatsoever?"
"Because the nutrient fluid here is still being constantly absorbed, and the joy factor also has the effect of regulating the human body's condition and recovery." Faen tapped Zeri's little belly: "But when moving around, you must pay attention to clamping tight, otherwise it won't be good if it flows out~"
"As long as you don't play dirty tricks!" Zeri glared dissatisfiedly, but then she stood on her tiptoes and gave him a gentle kiss.
"Let's go, time to eat."
"Mmhmm."
By the dining table, Soona had already been waiting for some time. But looking at the prepared breakfast, the robust matriarch Soona felt she didn't have the slightest appetite.
During this period, because she had the joy factor acting as a mental pre-workout and a muscle growth promoter, Soona's muscles had uniquely ascended another level. She gave off the feeling of a mix between Ana from Overwatch and an oversized Reinhardt's body—now League of Legends truly had its own defensive wall.
But unlike Zeri, as an old-timer of Zaun, Soona was truly experienced and knowledgeable in every sense. Naturally, Soona was also very aware of Zaun's chaos.
Soona didn't want Zeri to repeat her mistakes and end up choosing a bastard who looked heroic but was actually weak. But during her observation, Soona also had to admit that she somewhat underestimated the impact the joy factor had on Zeri.
No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Soona knew very well that beneath her lively, straightforward, and enthusiastic exterior, Zeri possessed a delicate, meticulous, yet somewhat sensitive heart.
This made Zeri always very vigilant when dealing with relationships, which also made the past Soona very relieved.
But it was exactly this reassuring Zeri who was so proactive yesterday... Although there were no outsiders at the time, only herself and Faen present. But even so, Soona had to admit that some of Zeri's reactions were somewhat beyond Soona's expectations.
It was only because Soona knew that the joy factor's effect wasn't addiction, but rather making people clearer about their deepest desires and facing their inner hopes more directly. Otherwise, even if just for her daughter's sake, the current Soona would have fallen out with Faen long ago.
Just as Soona was still thinking somewhat complicatedly, accompanied by a cheerful "Mom~", Zeri came skipping over from the side of the house. Seeing Zeri's lively figure, and then seeing Faen walking unhurriedly behind Zeri, Soona also nodded and said: "Let's eat... Hmm?"
Just as she was speaking, Soona suddenly frowned,
Zeri had Faen's scent on her.
This scent wasn't a simple smell, but a mark of the spirit realm. Unless they were someone who had also taken Faen's joy factor, other people would be unable to perceive it. Because rather than a smell, it was more like a feeling... a feeling belonging to Faen.
Although it was there before, but now... it was a bit too rich.
Already having some experience, Soona also knew that between Zeri and Faen, there was really only the last layer of window paper left unpierced. This could be seen from the fact that every morning when Zeri woke up, her body was always filled with Faen's scent. But now, Soona could also be certain that the scent on Zeri was much richer than the past few days.
Moreover, the place with the richest scent wasn't the upper body like in the past, but...
In silence, Soona looked at Zeri's lower abdomen. Looking at the bulging curve of her little belly in that corresponding location, Soona couldn't help falling into self-doubt—I must have sensed it wrong, right? After all, how could anyone have such a huge volume?
"Mom, what are you thinking about?"
Looking at the suspicion on Soona's face, Zeri also blinked in confusion.
And glancing at Zeri, Soona didn't speak. She just waited until Faen also took a seat before saying calmly: "Nothing, it's just you two, did you cross the final step last night?"
Hearing this, Zeri froze for a moment, then shook her head and said: "No! Faen wouldn't be that bad!"
Hearing Zeri's words, Soona also breathed a sigh of relief—she didn't have too many suspicions, because the current Soona was just trying to ask.
After all, Faen's physical stamina was plain to see. And as a mother, Soona knew Zeri's physical quality inside out. Although compared to ordinary people, she was fairly healthy due to the nourishment of magic power. But she couldn't be compared at all with someone like Faen who had clearly put in hard work.
If Zeri had really crossed that final line with Faen... according to Soona's guess, even with the joy factor to accelerate recovery, the current Zeri would probably be lying in bed unable to get up.
Furthermore—
She knew Zeri's temperament. If Zeri had truly crossed the final line with Faen, then the current Zeri would probably have lowered her head in shame, blushing furiously while trying to cut vegetable roots with a spoon, thinking of how to fool her...
Rather than freezing for a moment like now, and then quickly denying it.
Thinking this, Soona looked at the two of them and said while dining with relief: "It's not that I'm unwilling for you two to be together, it's just that right now we still have many things to busy ourselves with. Moreover..."
Silenced for a moment, Soona also sighed: "Moreover, Zeri is still very young. There are some things I haven't taught her yet."
"I'm not young, I already know everything I should know! It says so in the books!" Zeri was dissatisfied.
But Soona didn't argue, she just cast a helpless gaze at Faen.
And Faen expressed understanding: "The hearts of parents everywhere are pitiable. I can understand your concerns, but I am also willing to assure you that we have not crossed the final line."
They indeed hadn't crossed it!
Faen's main focus was respecting women, never forcing them to do things they were unwilling to do. He would just make the girls face their inner feelings slightly when they were hesitating...
And having received Faen's response, Soona also nodded.
Based on their time together recently, she might not be certain about other things, but Faen's moral character seemed quite resilient in Soona's eyes—at least much better than the Zaunite locals.
