A Cliché Multiverse Story

"I…" Alise opened her mouth. "Let's give it a try…"

If her goddess was fine with the relationship, there was no reason for her to hold back.

['Alise Lovell' relationship changed to 'Her Lover']

Asahi grinned. With this, Alise had become his woman. Though it happened earlier than he expected. All because of Alise being honest with her feelings.

"This makes us… l-lovers?" she asked, blushing furiously. "Me and my perfect lover?"

"Heh. Let's celebrate the first day of our relationship," Asahi teased and caressed her cheeks. "With some sex."

"N-No… no sex before marriage."

She was going to abide by this vow. She won't fall for his seductions.

"You plan to stay virgin forever if we don't marry?"

"Yes. I will."

She seemed determined to remain virgin.

Asahi clicked his tongue. "I haven't married any of my women."

She narrowed her eyes. "Do you plan to?"

"Of course. But not now."

"Good."

"Now, let's finish what we started earlier."

Asahi threw off his blanket and slipped inside Alise's blanket. The redhead tried to resist, but he pushed her down. She gave him a teary-eyed glance. "Y-You… you wanna do it with me?"

She couldn't understand his choice. While she hailed herself as the most 'pure and beautiful', being close with girls like Saeko and Rini had turned down her confidence.

'Why is he so adamant on fucking me today!'

Asahi looked into her eyes. He was just joking about doing it right now, just to tease her a bit. But her cute expression melted his heart. Leaning down, he captured her lips before trying to invade her mouth with his tongue. Alise closed her eyes and awkwardly stuck out her tongue in response. Her inexperience was showing again and again, which Asahi found fitting of her 'pure' claims. He started a passionate kiss, intending to make it the best kiss of her life.

Alise slowly ran out of breath. Asahi took that as a cue to end the kiss and slowly untied her shirt's buttons, revealing her black bra. The black went incredibly well with her scarlet hair.

"They are not big like Astraea-sama..." Alise mumbled. "But they are perfect…"

Asahi chuckled and traced a finger on her toned midriff. Her job was reflected on those tight abdominal muscles. Although she wasn't tough to Rika's level, she ticked his 'Abs' fetish just fine.

Alise shivered as his finger teased its way up to her breasts. A heat surged in her core. She could feel the wet sensation growing between her legs.

Just as things heated up, Asahi heard a loud heartbeat coming from none other than Ryuu. Her breathing had risen as if she was excited. Asahi's lips curled up. The elf was staying silent, despite knowing what they were doing.

Asahi ended the kiss and glanced at the elf whose ears had long become scarlet in the embarrassment of this situation.

Breathing through her parting lips, Alise asked, "What happened?"

"Ryuu dear. It's not good to be sneaky."

Ryuu opened her eyes and got up. "It is not my fault…"

"Yes. I know. Then why are you silent?" Asahi asked and chuckled. "Getting excited to see your friend being devoured by a man. You are a peeping pervert, aren't you?"

"Liar. I didn't do it!"

Someone else was even more embarrassed at this moment. Alise felt like her head would explode from shame.

"Perverted Lion."

She accused her friend, despite giving in to her temptations so easily.

"You both…"

Ryuu got up, took her boots, and ran outside the tent without a word.

Asahi looked at Alise. "What was that?"

Alise coughed. "I don't know."

"Shall I continue eating you?"

"No. Don't seduce me until you marry me!"

She also grabbed her stuff and ran out of the tent.

Asahi scratched the back of his head. "She is shyer than Astraea."

(That, she is. A common problem for virgin girls. I was also shy the first time!)

'Not every girl. But I get your meaning. Well, no sexy redhead for me today.'

Asahi sighed and recalled Gabriel's innocent face. He usually trained with God at this time then headed to spoil the Seraph for hours.

'She will be pissed at me for sure.'

His avatar was working on the Life Vein concept of the Life Element in the Irregular world. Being with Saya made it easier to feel the vitality of any living thing. He had stopped everything to focus on Life Vein, partially because of his desire to help Hephaestus, partially to upkeep the promise he made to Astraea.

He wanted to meet Gabriel right now, but the difference in time flow made his head spin. He wouldn't be able to focus on anything no matter how much processing power his 'Multithreaded processing' skill provided him. His perception and instincts made him far too sensitive to any change in his surroundings.

(Just pat her head until she accepts your apology!)

'Stuck in the same place for hundreds of years… I feel bad for her. I'll show her around when I go. Sandalphon too while I'm at it.'

(Yes. Make her fall for you.)

'Why does that excite you, Klyscha?'

(Because my love will have more women to make him happy. My love's happiness is my happiness.)

Her words were too odd for an omnipotent goddess. He shook his head and followed Alise's footsteps out of the tent.

***

After an uneventful breakfast of meat soup, the group was ready to head down. Asahi browsed through the list of spears from Klyscha. The sight of Gae Bolg would terrify the adventurers. He didn't want a powerful spear since it wouldn't help him in raising his spear skill. It had to be durable enough to withstand at least level 7 monsters.

Thankfully, there was a spear available for that. He had seen it before when he was browsing for a godly weapon.

Spear of Leonidas (Rank S): The spear wielded by King Leonidas of Sparta. This artifact bestows supernatural powers to the wielder.

—Enhanced Physique (Passive Skill): The user's STR, END, VIT, DEX, and DEF are increased as long as they wield this spear.

Effects: STR +25, END +20, VIT +30, DEF +30

—Regeneration (Passive Skill): The wounds are passively regenerated.

—Adrenaline shot (Passive Skill): The user gains the ability to harness supernatural powers through their adrenaline.

—Limited Poison Manipulation (Active Skill): The user can bestow Poison Element to their weapon.

—Limited Fire Manipulation (Active Skill): The user can imbue the Fire Element to their weapon.

—Cloak of Eden (Passive/Active Skill): The user's presence when standing still is reduced. The level can be increased with the use of adrenaline.

Price — 39,999 KP

The Spear of Leonidas from Assassin's Creed Odyssey game. Asahi had played the game for a few hours. The Greek setting alone was enough to make him play.

This spear was a decent choice for increasing stats, and the spear was durable beyond the strongest metal in this world. It was made by an ancient civilization after all. He could always switch to his spells if too many monsters showed up.

Asahi held Alise's hand and traveled down the floor. Ryuu silently followed the couple.

"You noticed that?" Tiona said cheerfully. "Alise is different."

Tione nodded. "They were all huddled in the same tent… Must have done it."

"Stop chattering and follow Captain Finn," Riveria rebuked. Although she also was a little curious over Alise's bashful change.

'Ryuu Lion was also there. I don't believe it happened.'

An upright elf such as Ryuu wouldn't be watching an indecent act happening before her eyes. She would've changed tents, which didn't happen.. The thought of Ryuu joining the two didn't even enter her head.
