Chapter 257 Shocking Revelation
Chapter 257 Shocking Revelation?
At the end of their carnal reunion, Vicente and Nova were lying on her bed, both extremely sweaty, heavily breathing as they stared at the ceiling.
Vicente had a satisfied expression on his face and could easily fall asleep now that he felt very relaxed.
On the other hand, Nova had an uncertain expression on her face, not knowing whether to focus on how good it felt to have done everything intimate one could do with someone of the opposite gender or how worried she was about what she had done.
That was a traditional society, and she herself had the goal of giving herself to the man she loved and with whom she would one day have a family!
But without thinking, she had gone to bed with Vicente and done things that couldn\'t be undone!
That was frightening, and she couldn\'t help but stare at the lamp on her bedroom ceiling, confused to the core.
Her heart was pounding while her mind was racing. Unlike Vicente, even if she wanted or tried to sleep, she couldn\'t.
\'What have I done?\' She thought, wondering if she had taken the right \'step\' in her relationship with Vicente. \'I think I love him, but does he feel the same way about me? Or have I wasted my purity?\'
It scared her, but she didn\'t dare to ask Vicente such a question.
Vice didn\'t have much on his mind at the moment. After having fun, pleasuring his companion, and finally finishing his carnal moment with Nova, he wanted to rest and sleep. Unfortunately, he couldn\'t do that now because he had business to attend to.
"Nova, this was all fantastic. I don\'t know what you have in mind, but this was no casual moment for me. You\'re not only someone I trust, even with my sister, but you\'re also someone I feel very comfortable with. I\'d like to continue what we have here." He calmly said, knowing how Nova was.
During their many conversations, Vicente discovered how traditional Nova was and that she wouldn\'t pursue a relationship like theirs without a future between them.
There was no such thing as casual sex in Nova\'s world.
She might have made a mistake today, but if Vice didn\'t show interest in a more formal relationship with her, he was sure she would move away from him to avoid making any more \'mistakes.\'
Vicente wanted to stay by her side, and not just for his personal goals, so even though it was still early, he showed Nova that his interests weren\'t superficial.
"Do you really want it?" She looked at him, a discreet smile forming on her lips.
"Yes, you\'re important to me." He smiled back at her, making her feel perfect.
"I feel the same way about you. I\'m glad we think alike, Vice." She hugged him and smiled in a way that made Vicente happy, as if her smile was everything to him, able to erase all problems from his mind.
"About what we did today, I didn\'t want to, but it was the best thing I\'ve ever done!" She murmured to him, wanting to do more, much more.
"But you have your obligations, and I have mine." Vicente smiled at her, seeing that they that they thought the same.
"Yes, I have to leave Millfall for The Rocky Gorge in less than two hours..." Nova lamented, aware it would be an important opportunity for her but still a little annoyed that she wouldn\'t be able to do more \'things\' with Vice.
She longed for more after uniquely discovering herself!
Vicente laughed and said. "Don\'t worry, we\'ll see each other again soon. Then we\'ll have some privacy."
"Oh? That makes me nervous." She laughed back.
"How about we meet when you get back from your hunt? I\'ll take care of some problems while you\'re gone, and when you get back, maybe we\'ll have a few days together." He suggested.
"That\'s good for me."
The two of them got up, finding it difficult to shower together and do nothing else. But their wills were strong, and with appointments to keep, they did nothing more than exchange a few kisses until they got dressed and said goodbye.
...
After leaving Nova in front of the royal army headquarters in Millfall, Vicente went to the Benson residence, taking advantage of the fact that it was still daylight to continue with his real identity.
At night, he intended to return to his identity as Cesar Mazzanti to care for Jasmine and his family\'s affairs.
However, he wanted to talk to Benson about his options now that he was a level 2 Acolyte. In addition, before returning to his identity as Cesar, Vice also wanted to stop by the local blacksmith\'s association and try to contact Lukas.
Before approaching him as Cesar, he wanted to bring the blond guy closer to the Fuller family.
With these plans in mind, Vicente soon found himself outside the Benson estate, where his master\'s metal dummy soon granted him access.
Arriving at Benson\'s door, Vicente was greeted by the man with a cry of surprise.
"Vicente? You\'re back?" The old man with short white hair approached him with a smile, expecting his student to be stronger due to the pentagram hunt.
"I\'m fine, master." Vicente laughed, not expecting such a warm response from Benson. "I was very lucky. After almost dying, I accomplished something incredible."
"Oh? That\'s good. Then let me see your second ability. I want to know how it will affect your path in the forge." He said, eager to see Vicente\'s second pentagram.
Upon hearing it, Vice took a deep breath. \'If I show it to him, and well, I have no choice but to, he\'ll connect the dots and discover that I\'m Cesar Mazzanti.\'
"First of all, master, I have something important to discuss with you about myself. It concerns my second pentagram, so we need to talk about it." He solemnly said, causing Benson to take a step back as he saw that his excitement over the forge had to be put aside for the moment.
"What is it? As your master, you can tell me anything, Vicente. I\'ll do my best to help you as long as it\'s within my abilities." He said as he positioned himself like a de facto master, with his hands behind his back and a thoughtful look on his face.
"Well, there\'s no other way to put it... I\'m Cesar Mazzanti, and Cesar Mazzanti is me."
