endless path, infinite cosmos

chapter 125

Vahn was very surprised by the sudden notification in his system. Not only had he completed the 'Heart's Desire' of Tiona, but he also unlocked a new parameter. According to the system, she now felt 'True Love' for Vahn, and it made him feel a happy and somewhat longing feeling as he looked at the peacefully sleeping young girl. He didn't care much about the quest, as it was already his intent to make her happy in the first place, but now he had a bit of extra incentive to do so.

Curious, Vahn began looking through his system, as he had received several notifications while he was having sex previously. His mind was so focused on the emotions and his interactions with the two girls that he hadn't paid them any attention at the time. Now that the two girls were sleeping at his sides, Vahn had the opportunity to review what he had previously overlooked.

Vahn wasn't too surprised by the fact that Ais's affection had reached the maximum. Though he could only vaguely recall, he seemed to remember that the notification had sounded when she started kissing him in their second bout of intercourse. Other than that, the other notifications were just showing various increases and decreases of her affection over the course of events.

He was happy to notice he had gotten a new skill, as well as a large increased to one he previously possessed. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that Ais was a prodigy when it came to the sword, and now Vahn seemed to benefit a bit from her potential. According to Sis, a B rank skill typically corresponded to a veteran, while A rank was expert. It was very difficult to develop a skill beyond A-rank and reach the pinnacle of S-rank, but it wasn't unheard of. If a person could push it even further beyond, the skill would even evolve into a higher tier ability, much like how [Blacksmith:S] turned into [Master Smith].

The thing that most concerned him about the current events was the new [Hearts Desire: Ais Wallenstein] that he had obtained. Vahn already had some expectations about what Ais sought, and he was a little hesitant to peak into the girl's memories. However, after he noticed her sleeping contentedly next to him, Vahn threw his inhibitions aside and activated the item. Just as before, the air seemed to freeze and time came to a stop for Vahn as the vision began flashing through his mind.

Since it was already his fourth time, Vahn understood that he was currently seeing things from Ais's perspective. Through her eyes, he could see what looked like a matured version of Ais sitting near a low table in a flower garden. Vahn felt very happy inside as he moved toward the beautiful girl and jumped into her arms. He felt very safe and happy as the woman gently stroked through his long golden hair and whispered kind words into his ear...

Ais had always felt happy when she was with her mother. Her mother, Aria Wallenstein, was always the kindest person to her and she taught her many things. She was very beautiful always treated her better than anyone else, even her own father who was always away on his adventures. Though Ais really loved her father, it was always her mother that made her feel happiest. She wished that they would be able to spend the rest of their lives together in the garden they had tended to since Ais first became aware of her surroundings.
