After their battle, the two took a bath and lay on the bed with Sera nestled inside his arm like a weak kitten.
''Why did you do that?" Alex asked, and it went without saying that he was asking why she asked him to take her after the rescue. He had thought he would take his time with her, not rush things so she would see that he was not after her body but wanted the whole thing.
Sera chuckled.
''Well, it is because I felt it was the right time.''
She went silent for a while before saying something her grandmother, who died a few years ago, used to tell her when she hit puberty.
''Sex brings that special addiction to your one love, your true life partner. If you aren't careful, it becomes an addiction to the physical act and the fantasy rather than the person. And so, be good to yourself, love yourself by being sure that you've met your life partner before you have sex... then the relationship becomes all the deeper for you both... that's when humans mate for life instead of entering the carousel of pain that has become so normal in this toxic society.''
''She is not wrong but sometimes I believe that a relationship can start from sex; well, it might become. I came from a world where sex is open. You can encounter a woman today, not tonight, for the first time and sleep with her; it happens too often. My point is that when two people are in love, sex can bring them closer, like your grandma said. You will learn to know more about the other party through sex, exploring her body, what made her shiver, what made her come faster, everything to satisfy your partner. Sex is more than penetrating your partner; it's a science, how to make your partner satisfied while being satisfied simultaneously.''
Sera listened to Alex and couldn't help but ask him this question.
''You seemed like a love guru, no sex guru. Tell me, who many women have you conquered with this sweet tongue of yours?"
For his, safety, Alex chooses to remain silent.
''Shall we continue? I'm not satisfied, and I know you will be leaving soon to continue your mission, let's enjoy ourselves for the next hours.'' Alex licked his lips. As he had said, he didn't get enough of this beautiful woman; remembering her moans was enough to make his blood boil.
''Well, I'm not against it, but there was something I want to try, so let's postpone the fun for now.''
Alex's face became crestfallen, but its face shone like the morning sun after Sera told him what she had in mind.
He had never tried this before, not even when he was still on Earth, so this would be his first time trying; he couldn't stop the excitation he felt, his blood pressure skyrocketing but he calmed his raging hormones; there were still few minutes left.
Meanwhile, Sera secretly apologized to Sakuya; she was the one that suggested this idea; well, she told Sera that she would try this idea later. However, now she decided to try this idea because she wished to satisfy her man; she could only apologize later as she was borrowing her idea, using it before she could use it.

In another location, in an underground palace, Lilith was sitting on a throne.
''So you failed is what you mean to say?" She asked sternly, and Althea lowered her head; although she knew her enemy would die after getting poisoned, she knew she failed to kill the enemy on the spot.
Lilith smiled before saying.
''Don't worry, sister, I was messing with you. I caught the rat after he teleported away.''
Althea was shocked not because Lilith caught duke Eleanor but because of how Lilith called her. She referred to her as a sister, which means she had come to accept her apologies and was slowly accepting her.
Immediately after announcing that she had caught the runaway duke, Lilith snapped her fingers, and the bound duke appeared on his knees.
The once-mighty duke was shivering on his knees.
''W.. what you want to know?" He asked after stuttering for a while.
Lilith chuckled; she was happy that she didn't need to speak too much for the duke to immediately understood that she wanted an information; it was why he was kept alive.
''Pretty smart. I just want to know if Lucifer, your lord is still inside his quarter?" Lilith's question surprised many as none of them had expected this question.
Even her sister, Althea, was surprised; she wondered what kind of game her sister was playing because there was no way she would ask such a question, a meaningless question.
The duke was the most shocked; nevertheless, he still answered the question.
''Yes.''
A simple answer, but he didn't forget to add.
''You stand no chance; the emperor is stronger than anything you could have expected; he would easily crush you like a bug. No matter how many there are bugs are still bugs. You will die no matter what you do.''
To the duke's provocation, Lilith stood up and flicked her fingers again and the chains binding the duke were reduced to dust. The duke felt free, and he decided to try one last suicide mission; however, before he could circulate his mana to activate his skills, Lilith appeared in front of him from the other side of the room.
With a shrill shriek, her slender arm tore through the air and heavily slammed into the duke's chest, giving him no time to dodge.
BANG!
The impact sent him crashing to the lower floor. The floor caved in, and the glass panels exploded into tinkling shards.
SCREECH~
"Cough!"
The duke coughed up a mouthful of black blood. His chest and hands ripped open, and hot blood splashed out.
The duke ignored the pain as the impact sent him flying. He put his feet on the ground forcefully and stopped himself from dragging back any further.
However, soon his nose was broken as it got slammed into Lilith's knee, the last thing the duke heard before forever losing his consciousness was.
''The real battle had just begun.''
