The following day.
Early morning.
With the sky growing brighter, golden rays started lighting up the green earth. The light also brought vitality and cool air, adding to the palette of the world.
The air's still cool. The city is not that hot during dawn. However, the coolness will be gradually replaced by the heat of the baking sun.
The city's climate is a torment for those who can't tolerate heat.
In a certain house, Alex's new house.
From the outside, this house looks gorgeous. It has been built with white bricks and has mahogany wooden decorations. Tall, large windows brighten up the house and have been added to the house in a fairly symmetrical pattern.
The house is equipped with a large kitchen and one average bathroom, it also has a fairly small living room, three bedrooms, a modest dining area, a study, and a small garage.
The building is shaped like an L. The extension extends into a patio reaching the end of that side of the house.
The second floor is smaller than the first, which, in combination with its placement, creates an original look. This floor has a different style than the floor below.
The roof is high, triangular, and layered and is covered with grey roof tiles. Two large chimneys poke out of the center of the roof. Several long, thin windows let in plenty of light to the rooms below the roof.
The house itself is surrounded by a gorgeous garden, including various trees, bushes, flowers, and a large pond.
Incursio woke up while it was still not that hot yet. She slapped her cheeks and stretched her back before getting out of bed.
She kept rubbing her eyes to perk up her foggy mind. She was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts. She walked out of her room without changing.
This had become her daily life since entering the Infinity Maze and she didn't mind as this lifestyle isn't bad hopefully this could continue.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUnlike her brother what most people would have thought, Incursio woke up on time. She's a bit of a neat freak so she made sure to clean their home up as part of her morning routine. After that, she would change her clothes and wake Alex up if he was still sleeping, maybe because they're together Alex who had the habit of waking up faster stopped constantly doing so since their arrival here.
Incursio yawned after complaining a bit. She entered the living room. She felt like the nagging wife.
After grumbling about the sleepy Alex, she entered the living room only to see a shocking scene. Her jaw almost dropped to the ground.
"Yo, good morning, Incursio!"
His energetic voice came from the dining table set in the living room. She returned to her senses as she called out the identity of the person greeting her in her home.
"Alexander!"
"As expected, you're an early bird, aren't you?…"
Alex chuckled.
"Luckily, I woke up before the sun even broke the horizon. Otherwise, I am afraid I might not have made it in time…"
"Alex… Y-you…"
Incursio stuttered. She looked down and she was still in her sleepwear so she blushed furiously.
"Eh?!"
Alex's warm smile petrified her, making her feel warm all over her body.
For Incursio, seeing the person she loves first thing in the morning probably came as a pleasant surprise, right?
Alex also planned to give her all the celebration she wants.
His mood improved after seeing the positive vibes Incursio's giving off. He grabbed her hand and sat her down at the dining table.
"Well, a change of pace is good sometimes…"
Alex looked into her eyes with a cheeky smile.
"For example, you can make a love-filled breakfast for your girlfriend…"
"Eh?!"
Incursio finally noticed the delicious food laid out on the table.
When she thought about what Alex's said, why wouldn't she get the hint in Alex's words?
She started blushing and she averted her gaze, looking at the food on the table. Her heart filled up with saccharine goodness and she leaked a tiny voice. It was like she had become a teenager who had just discovered love, not the cold bloodthirsty demon she previously was.
"Th-thank you… Alex…"
"No need to thank me, this was long overdue…"
Alex said with an ambiguous tone. It looks like Incursio's glad so he sighed in relief.
Before leaving for that place she ought to do.
Improve his relationship with Incursio by doing normal things a normal couple would do. It wouldn't be easy to convince her knowing her desire to explore the unknown and have fun.
In other words, he needs to up his game with Incursio.
This was why Alex got out of bed early and made a scrumptious breakfast feast.
It's working well if her reaction is any indication.
While the iron's hot, Alex kept pounding the iron piece. He presented his food to Incursio.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe was stunned by the feast spread out before her. Her face gained a red shade because of the food.
Forget about the taste, for now, the presentation of the food is…
Heart
They were all made in heart shapes for some reason.
"Alex!"
She started pouting in bashful anger.
"Why did you make the food look like this?! This is so embarrassing!"
"Hmm?"
Alex looked down in a "disappointed" manner.
"You don't like it?"
"N-no, it's not like that…"
She shook her head and hands in panic. With a face as red as a tomato, she continued.
''So what is the problem? Perhaps our feeling embarrassed?'' Alex asked with a mysterious smile. Incursio felt like she would lose if she were to continue playing this game w therefore she simply answered.
"I-it's nothing…"
Alex nodded asking her to taste the food.
"Come, taste it. I am going to take you out for a fun stroll later…"
Incursio's eyes lit up.
"Okay.''
Incursio started enjoying the feast prepared "lovingly" by Alex.
After breakfast, the duo departed from their house, everyone bowed upon seeing them because while they got a new Lord, the status of these two was undoubtedly higher. Nobody would dare to underestimate them. Alex and Incursio ignored them as they continued to enjoy their date which would be probably their last Incursio believed.
