Hero of Harmony (Continued)

Chapter 351: Luring The Tiger Down The Mountain

'Ah, that feels good; I feel much stronger now.' Flexing my muscles with a smile, I slicked my hair back and looked in the mirror, only to feel a pair of squishy objects press against my back. "Are you ready, Alex?" Gently grabbing Jasmine's hands, I turned around and lightly kissed her head before nodding. "Yes." Putting my shirt on, I left the bathroom with Jasmine in tow as we walked down the stairs before exiting our house.

As we walked beside each other through Cassandra, I used [Heroes Gaze] to keep track of the several spies following us from a distance, though while doing so, Jasmine stealthily held my hand, causing me to glance at her with a raised eyebrow. "Nervous?" "Ah, a-a little." Gently rubbing Jasmine's head with a faint smile, she leaned her head into my embrace while we headed towards the entrance of Cassandra. "Don't worry, everything will be fine." "If you say so."

Descending into silence, several minutes later, we exited Cassandra, and the instant we did, a few of the spies following us melded into the shadows and quickly headed in the direction of their base, prompting me to communicate with Trina, who would do so with Zartha, and then she'd relay the information to Yuki. After walking a certain distance from Cassandra, we headed into the forest, heading toward a specific spot I'd already prepared for the confrontation with Sash and that bastard, Chad, or whatever his name was.

"Are they coming, Alex?" "No, it'll take some time for the spies to return to their base, and they probably won't arrive until midnight." "Urgh, that's a disadvantage for us." "True, but I expected it." Gently rubbing Jasmine's shoulder, we walked for half an hour before we arrived at the specific location deep within the forest, which was a small clearing, the size of a small house, big enough to serve as a camping site.

Sitting down, I leaned against a tree while Jasmine sat on my lap. I'm sure from an outsider's perspective, she was just being intimate, and while that wasn't wrong, I knew the real reason was that she didn't want to get her clothes dirty. 'Even after this long, her habits as a Princess are still strong.' "Are we just going to wait until they arrive?" "Yeah." Nodding, I affectionately stroked Jasmine's silky golden hair while she practically melted into my embrace.

The two of us stayed just like this for several hours, only moving about when Jasmine needed to use the bathroom, leaving her greatly embarrassed. "Why are you so weird, Alex? What kind of man gets aroused from drinking that?" Watching Jasmine pull her underpants up with a bashful expression, I awkwardly chuckled and averted my gaze while wiping my mouth. "S-Sorry. I-It's just a fetish of mine; I-I also don't drink it all the time, only when I'm feeling horny." "So all the time then?"

Offering Jasmine a charming smile, she grabbed the bridge of her nose and sighed before sitting on my lap while squeezing my erection between her plump thighs. "Ha, I guess everyone has weird fetishes. Just don't expect me to kiss you before you clean your mouth. Haa, why is my husband so freaky?" Chuckling lightly, I wrapped my arms around Jasmine's waist as we waited for night to arrive, which was still a while away, considering it was afternoon.

"Once this is over, I'm going to have my way with your ass." Whispering into Jasmine's ear, she squirmed slightly before squeezing my erection, causing me to laugh. 'Ah, so cute.'

Glancing up at the night sky, I let out a deep sigh and looked over at Jasmine, who was peacefully sleeping. However, her nap was short-lived, as I soon saw two shadows moving incredibly quickly and approaching us. Quickly standing up, waking Jasmine up in the process, I pulled her onto her feet while she rubbed her eyes and yawned. "W-What's happening, Alex?" "They're coming." 'Trina, tell Zartha that Sash is with us.' 'Aye, aye, Master!'

Almost instantly, Jasmine's drowsiness vanished as her expression hardened while she stood to my left, and I summoned Trina and stabbed her into the ground. With how fast the two shadows were moving, it wasn't even a minute after I first spotted them that they arrived in the clearing. Seeing the two land opposite of us, the shadows surrounding them slowly melded into the ground, revealing Sash and Chase, with the latter wearing different armor.
