CH 209

Aria went back to the cave with Lloyd.

To the cave where God sleeps. They were bringing back the feelings that God had forgotten.

Just looking at the enormous scale of thorny vines that covered the walls of the cave seemed overwhelming.

Aria and Lloyd cut through it and headed inward.

God was asleep in the same form as before.

God lost the heart.

“We have come a long way.”

Aria placed her hand where God’s heart was supposed to be.

And Lloyd’s hand overlapped over Aria’s hand.

God’s goodwill, malice, and conscience.

When the two of them tried to give everything back.

Suddenly, someone grabbed Aria’s wrist with great force.

“Ah!”

Aria looked up in surprise.

“Lloyd?”

It’s not.

At first glance, she almost mistook him. But when she took a closer look, it was completely different.

The other person was so huge that she doubted if it was the same person.

‘But they look very similar.’

To some extent, the man resembles Tristan and Lloyd, comparable to the two father-and-son. Even the hair color and eye color are the same.

When Aria pursed her lips to ask who he was. The man spoke first to her.

“It is not yet time.”

Not yet time?

‘Then when should I return God’s feelings?’

Aria frowned slightly and twisted her wrist to free it from his grip.

The man looked so much like Lloyd that she couldn’t resist the rude touch.

“Then, when…”

“Shh. You’ll know when the time is right.”

After the man replied with a nonchalant face, he suddenly gave Aria a baby dragon she didn’t know where he had brought it from.

“Mya mya!”

“Until then, take good care of yourself.”

Aria looked down at the dragon in her arms with a blank face for a moment.

It was black, like the baby dragon Aria was currently raising, but the eyes were pinkish like petals.

She had seen these eyes before.

‘It has the same eye color as mine.’

She touched her eyes and lifted her head.

“Hey, you…”

She was going to ask who he was and why would he leave the baby dragon behind.

However, the man had disappeared without a trace before she knew it.

“…!”

Aria jumped up.

‘A dream?’

Her sense of reality returned slowly. She blinked her eyes slowly.

The summer sun filtering through the window blinded her eyes.

Aria frowned her eyes and stood firm for a moment before she let out a pained sound and put her hands on her waist.

She was tired. She seems to have closed her eyes for a moment, but she even has a strange dream…….

“Of course it’s not a nonsense dream.”

These vivid dreams usually hinted at the future.

“What kind of dream is this?”

Lloyd put his arms around her waist and pulled her.

Aria’s cheeks blushed as she unknowingly lay back on the bed and was pressed close to him.

Last night, both of them were busy gathering each other’s clothes.

“Umm…….”

Aria was lost in thoughts, wondering what she was dreaming of.

“I think I met Lloyd’s ancestor?”

“……My ancestor?”

“Yes, he looks just like Lloyd. He’s a lot taller and a lot bigger…”

She said while thinking about how to describe the man she had seen in her dream.

“He was like a hero from a myth.”

Then Lloyd was silent for a moment.

“So, did you like it?”

“What?”

She doesn’t know why the story was going that way. Did she like his big body?

“No, Lloyd is already big, but I can’t handle it if you’re bigger…”

Aria, intoxicated by slumber, seemed oblivious to the fact that what she had just said sounded very strange.

Lloyd laughed as Aria was cute when she was acting strangely.

“It must be my ancestor.”

“Who?”

“The demigod, Noah.”

Born between God and human, Noah.

‘That mythological figure is Lloyd’s ancestor?’

Aria didn’t expect more surprises here.

Noah was a legendary hero.

While Valentine’s first patriarch was disgraced of being cursed for life for violating God’s command.

But they are both actually the same person.

“Come to think of it, the head of Valentine’s family was also once revered as a hero.”

Aria finally understands how Lloyd has a body that transcends that of a human being.

In fact, it was because his ancestor transcended humans. So he could have accepted God’s malice.

“Pfft.”

She laughed unknowingly.

“Why are you laughing?”

“No, Garcia worshiped the demigod Noah, designating his birthday as a memorial day.”

But, in fact, Valentine was a descendant of Noah.

“That’s funny.”

Valentine, whom they insulted and pointed at as the sinful devil, was in fact the bloodline of the God whom they revered.

How can she not laugh? It was both embarrassing and outrageous.

“Did Lloyd know?”

“Yes.”

“Since when?”

“From the beginning.”

“What?!”

Aria looked at Lloyd in surprise.

Even though he could burst into resentment at the Holy Empire’s agitation and fabrication, he had a nonchalant face as if he didn’t care.

“Then why did you stay still?”

“I thought Noah betrayed and ruined my flesh and blood, until I knew the truth.”

Come to think of it.

Aria belatedly recalled her past memories.

Lloyd believed that his ancestor had sinned and that all his unhappiness was his ancestor’s karma. He, the descendant, had to pay for his ancestor’s sins.

‘Garcia, these guys are no good.’

She even thought it was foolish to just let them self-destruct because they would surely collapse on their own.

But she changed her mind.

She will thoroughly step on not only their faith, but also history and culture, so that not even anything remains.

“What did Noah say in your dream?”

Lloyd asked Aria again.

“He suddenly appeared when I was trying to return God’s feelings with Lloyd. He said it wasn’t the time yet and stopped me.”

“It’s not time?”

“Yes. I don’t know why he said that as he looked like he was in a hurry…”

Lloyd’s ancestor was vehemently against it. Besides, that ancestor is God’s son.

“I can’t help but listen to it…”

Is there something she needs to do before completely handing over the feelings to God? Of course, in order to completely crush Garcia, it was better to have God’s feelings.

As Aria was locked in deep thought for a while.

She felt something belatedly and muttered, stiffening her body.

“Something….. seems to touch me.”

Something hard and heavy.

“Why are you talking like you’re not familiar with it?”

Lloyd added playfully.

“Isn’t it about time you got used to it?”

Aria struggled to get out of his arms. Of course, it was to no avail.

“Is it not enough to do that yesterday?”

“It’s not enough…”

“You wouldn’t say it’s enough even if you do it until the sun comes up.”

Aria, of course, knew that Lloyd was not normal.

But, wasn’t he tired?

She was very upset. Why does she always have to open her eyes in the morning with her body and mind in tatters?

And she’s the only one like that.

“I won’t, so don’t worry.”

“Then why do you keep teasing me?”

Aria trembled at the touch as he brushed her with obvious intentions.

He would quick to notice everything about her, yet he only pretended not to know at times like this.

“Can I say something vulgar?”

Aria sighed. It was because his body wouldn’t budge no matter how much she pushed.

“Try it.”

“Are you in rut or something like that?”

Lloyd let out a low laugh at those words that came out without hesitation.

In front of him, Aria, who usually doesn’t say anything unpleasant, said that. It looked pretty vulgar.

“I suspect it.”

I can’t control it, and I don’t even know when I try…….

Lloyd muttered seriously.

Eventually, he admitted that he had been too much with her and let her go.

“Just kiss me.”

When Aria gave him a suspicious glance, Lloyd politely closed his eyes.

His eyes loosened slowly and the straight closed lips. His face, which had been shining since morning, even looked submissive, as if he had never harbored any infatuation.

It was ridiculous. She can’t believe it…….

Her hand went to him without her knowledge.

“……Lloyd, where did you learn such an innocent look?”

Aria felt the opposite.

When she was young, she was the one who used to provoke him and act innocent.

Of course, she didn’t do that on purpose, but to hide her identity……

‘Did Lloyd feel this way too?’

Aria cupped his pale cheeks.

Then, a light blush appeared on his cheeks and on the back of his ears, like paint spreading.

As she gently stroked it, he tilted his head to follow her touch, gently curling his eyes.

‘Cute.’

Aria thought that she was also quite seriously swayed, and she lightly kissed his tightly closed lips.

“Are you satisfied now… uhm!”

Lloyd grabbed her by the back of her head and pulled her.

And he showed through actions that he was not satisfied at all.

He swallowed her as if he had been waiting for her. Digging deep into her as if he was going to pull her out until he was out of breath.

Aria’s ears rang with the same thing she had heard the previous night.

“St, stop.”

It wasn’t until after a while that their lips parted with the sound of a rough breathing, and Aria realized that she was lying underneath him.

She felt like she was going to fall for his foolish temptation again.

Aria hurriedly slipped out from under her tight arms that held her.

“Hoo…….”

Lloyd let out a low sigh and ran his tongue over his wet lips.

The eyes that had been hidden behind his eyelids, pretending to be docile until now, shimmered like those of a beast.

Suddenly their eyes met.

“As you said, I think I’m in rut.”

She knew he was tricking her and he gained victory through it, so why does she still feel unfair?
