Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System-Novel

Chapter 182: Love Confession

-----

[Day 109]

Yesterday was sure a long day… We did a lot, from buying stuff, making an alliance with the sect, and rescuing a lot of slaves. We also got a big loot of items, equipment, and money.

There are literally thousands of Mana Stones, used as currency here, so we are literally rich already. Huh, and it only took assaulting these bastards, killing them, and getting all their loot!

Eh? Giving back what they stole? No thanks, we'll take it as compensation for our hard work.

The slaves felt mostly sickly, tired, and although they were very surprised and some had even fallen unconscious out of surprise and fear, they were all alive inside the castle.

Fuyu had been increasing her size for a long time, so much that she ended gaining the Space Expansion Ability, which multiplied the space inside of her by x10 compared to what it seemed outside… suddenly, everything just got super wide, there were several new rooms, halls, and more.

The number of slaves we rescued amounted to 47, I calculated them myself. So yeah, 47 new people out of nowhere… Haha… Well, Fuyu is as enormous as a city, well, she might be bigger than the actual city down below now at this point, so everyone fits inside quite nicely.

The interior of Fuyu also extends to the garden that extends around the tower-like building, so there is a lot of dirt we had begun to put there, which we plan to fill with plants for some self-sustenance.

However, for now, we'll use the money we got to buy a lot of food, simply by hunting we won't be able to supply food to all of them.

It has only been a day so I don't know how they might feel, there were some strong warriors around there, but I doubt they'll be ready to go hunt right away.

There were also the newly raised Ice Mannequin Golems and Snow Beast Golems, which were the souls of… the unfortunate that died there, who wanted to accompany me willingly.

Usually, wandering souls don't obey me, so I couldn't waste this opportunity to get Undead that could actually become loyal servants.

After they were raised, they became automatically "tamed" too, and became very devoted and nice.

And they didn't have to sleep either, so they tried to get into our room and just watch over us as we slept, thankfully, I stopped them and just asked them to stand by as guards outside or to roam inside of Fuyu.

And well, after finally waking up, Benladann was tightly hugging me, but she seemed to be also awake.

"Hello… Good morning…" she said.

She looks so pretty in the mornings…

"Good morning," I said.

"Uwah… I don't want to wake up… There's so much to do with the people…" she sighed.

"Indeed, there is… But don't worry, we also got friends at our side, some people can aid us a bit, Draugann and Gaston's family," I said.

"Right… I guess… I just… Wanna take a break…" she sighed.

"Hm… Well, you don't have to work, stay here, I can bring you breakfast if you want," I said, as I was about to leave the bed.

"Nuuu! Don't leave me…" she cried, stopping me from getting away, she covered me once more with the bedsheets and rubbed her legs on mine.

"Let's cuddle together…" she said.

"Sigh… I think I've spoiled you a lot…" I sighed.

"Hehe, I like to be spoiled by you… You're the only one that I let spoil me…" said Benladann smiling warmly, as she rubbed her face over mine.

"You're like a puppy or something… There's a lot of things to do!" I said.

"But let's slack off for some time!" she said.

She's really into it huh? She just wants to slack off.

Maybe what happened yesterday left her rather sorrowful, so she wants to stay in bed… well, with me.

Being with me in bed might bring her a lot of happiness and comfort…

Her hand suddenly holds mine tightly, as she rests her head over my chest.

"I just want to be with you…"

"I understand, we can be together… In fact, we are always together," I sighed.

"I know… I just like to be with you… more closely…" she said.

"I-Is that so?" I asked.

Benladann nodded cutely, as her eyes seemed shiny.

God, my heart is pumping so fast. She's really killing me.

"I don't want to be… with anyone else than you…" she said.

"Eh? I-I think the same…" I said.

"R-Really? You don't look at other girls…?" she asked.

"Eh? Other girls? No?" I asked.

"Not… even the daughters of Gaston? T-They're very pretty… prettier than me… and younger too… Or all the girls we got now with us…" she said

"Eh? No? I don't… Actually, now that I think about it, I haven't feel attracted by any girl," I said.

"No? Y-You like men?!" she asked.

"Eh?! No! Wait, I guess I didn't word that correctly… I mean, I don't find any other girl… Erm, attractive… Just… y-you…" I said.

As I said those words, Benladann's eyes opened wide open in surprise.

What's so surprising about that?! I thought it was already clear I liked her…

"J-Just me? Really? Y-You don't look at other girls…?" she asked.

"I don't… I only have eyes for you," I said.

"D-Drake… D-Do you like me?" she asked.

"I… do," I said.

Benladann was left even more surprised, as I could feel her heart beating as fast as possible.

Damn… So, I ended confessing myself in bed. Well, this is awkward.

"Drake… I also like you! Why didn't you tell me before? In fact, I love you a lot!" she said, hugging me tightly.

"I was just nervous… I-I… Well, sorry… I have just never been good with any of these things," I sighed.

"W-Well, me neither…"

We looked at each other for a bit… as our faces slowly began to get closer.

Both of us were embarrassed and as red as tomatoes, but we kept getting closer…

Our lips were just half an inch closer from one another. I could feel her warm breath on my lips…

"Mwah!"

And Benladann just closed her eyes and kissed me.
