Offering Herself
After dinner, Saine went straight back to the top floor of the Holy Tower to continue dealing with his Alien Plane Spoils of War and, incidentally, to help Serena organize her future study plans.
Although he and Serena are Cousin Serena, Saine often acts more like Serena's mentor.
For example, those learning plans—who would help a magic apprentice like that?
The fact that Saine often had Serena assist him in experiments is strikingly similar to the situation when Saine helped his first mentor Moxidu, with Alchemy Experiment.
Before she had been tidying up in the warehouse for long, Serena, who had finished preparing dinner, appeared in front of Saine once again.
Serena looked slightly different from before; she seemed to have changed her clothes and appeared to be wearing light makeup.
She had changed her dress to a lighter, thinner gauze. When Serena knelt down to help Saine organize the Alien Plane Spoils of War, Saine could see her excellent body shape from the side.
For a woman, this should be considered the final stage of the best years of Serena's life.
If Serena ultimately fails to advance a level, then the period between her thirties and forties will be the last peak of her beauty.
Even if female magic apprentices start using Alchemy Potion or magical cosmetics to nourish themselves after the age of forty, they will inevitably begin the slow aging process.
And this aging process will continue indefinitely.
Only by advancing one level can the Life Essence undergo a fundamental change, and the Life Source Power will also radiate brilliance. Only then can Mage regain their youth and return to the peak of their energy and physique.
The earlier someone is promoted, the more obvious this performance becomes.
If it's the kind of Mage lives to be over a hundred years old and, with the help of numerous potions and external forces, barely manages to reach the first level in the final moments of their life.
Even if they get promoted, they won't get much of their youth back.
Because their Life Essence has been severely damaged.
In the Wizard World, some Level-1 Magician, despite being only two or three hundred years old, appear to have white hair and are mostly white-haired, which is basically due to this reason.
Looking at Serena, who was squatting down to help him organize the warehouse, Saine inexplicably felt a surge of heat coming from his lower abdomen.
Saine is usually a Mage knows how to be moderate and is good at controlling himself.
However, it is precisely because of this restraint and self-control that when certain Desire suddenly arise, they are more intense than usual.
At this point, a reaction had clearly occurred in his lower abdomen, but Saine's mind was still relatively clear.
He could easily deduce that Serena had probably changed her clothes specifically, and that her current actions were likely intentional...
Saine even considered more possibilities. He thought that his body's honest and obvious reaction might mean he had returned to the Wizard World, and his subconscious relaxed. →
During the Battle of the Poison Fire Green Flame World, the union of Saine and Irene can largely be seen as a result of the pressure brought about by the intense war.
Both of them needed to release their pent-up stress.
In the Wizard World and in normal everyday interactions, it's possible that Saine would never develop such a close relationship with Irene; at most, they would become friends.
However, his reaction to Serena at this moment was entirely due to Saine relaxed state of mind, which allowed his desires to gradually take over.
He has fought in the Poison Fire Green Flame World for more than ten years, and has diligently studied magic and carried out combat missions.
Now that I'm finally back in the Wizard World, what's wrong with relaxing a bit?!
This kind of thinking is a normal psychological reflection of a sentient being with flesh and blood.
Saine possesses immense power, and his desire for his Cousin Serena, who is completely subservient to him, intensifies exponentially with her deliberate seduction.
Saine couldn't help but take a few steps forward and lean against Serena's back.
Feeling the heat and warmth emanating from Saine behind her, Serena blushed.
Saine's judgment was correct; Serena did indeed come over on her own initiative.
This is the answer Serena pondered for years, alone, on the top floor of the Holy Tower.
After spending her 30th birthday alone, Serena made up her mind that she had to give herself to Saine as soon as possible.
"You... you really didn't need to do this." Despite the allure of the person before him, Saine restrained his Desire and spoke in a low voice.
A tear rolled down Serena's cheek as Serena said, "I'm afraid I won't have the chance to give it to you again. I'm afraid I'll grow old and fail to live up to your expectations, cousin."
As she spoke, Serena's shoulders involuntarily twitched.
Saine didn't understand much about this woman's complex mentality, but he still hugged Serena and gave her the warmest embrace.
Serena then turned around and nestled into Saine's arms; she had been imagining this scene for over a decade.
Tears streamed down Serena's face; these were not just tears of sadness, but also tears of excitement.
Serena's behavior is actually quite understandable. She's afraid that she won't be able to advance to Level-1 Magician in the future, especially after her growth has hit a bottleneck in recent years.
The aging process, including changes in appearance, is also a major weakness for female Mage.
Compared to male Mage, female Mage in the Wizard World seem to care more about their appearance.
Of all the female Mage that Saine has encountered over the years, none seem to be particularly ugly.
Even if some female Mage ' appearances don't quite fit Saine's aesthetic standards, they at least look young and beautiful.
There were also Mage who looked like old women, but those female Mage were basically all very old and probably didn't care much about that anymore.
Serena's crying at this moment reveals her inner vulnerability.
If it were Saine, he would never have acted so out of control.
The other women Saine came into contact with, whether it was Irene or Sylph, were all much stronger than Serena.
If Serena were an unrelated person, why would Saine care so much about her?
But since the other party was his Cousin Serena, and they had spent so much time together, the emotions accumulated during their long-awaited reunion inevitably affected Saine's usually calm and collected mind.
"Cousin, will you take me?" Serena asked timidly, looking at Saine was a head taller than her.
She wanted to give her best self to Saine while she was young, so that she wouldn't have too many regrets when she got old.
Faced with Serena's pitiful question and seeing how afraid he would refuse, Saine sighed and then nodded.
For a moment, two dimples appeared on Serena's face, and her smiling face reminded Saine of flowers blooming in spring.
