292 Second Servant
Nevertheless, it wasn’t just Aeliana who felt inferior upon seeing Eniwse’s true appearance. Even Hester’s lip twitched upon gazing at her huge rack.
She was curious to see what kind of beauty Eniwse was to make Vaan risk his life to enter the Thousand Fog Mountains to save her.
Although she didn’t know what kind of person Eniwse was to Vaan that made her so important, she felt like she had found her answer simply by looking at the person’s ungodly endowment.
“Those… aren’t real, right?” Hester whispered to Aeliana with a blank look.
“I’m not sure… I’ve never seen them so big,” Aeliana replied dumbfoundedly without shifting her gaze, “I wonder what she’s been eating to grow them to such a size…”
…
Meanwhile, Vaan welcomed Eniwse back with a fresh set of clothes to cover her bare, weakened body. She only took a few steps forward before falling into them.
“Welcome back,” Vaan whispered as he wrapped her body up.
“Is this a dream?” Eniwse asked in a weak voice.
At the same time, she stared up at his familiar and handsome face without blinking, wanting to engrave his image into her memory for eternity.
She didn’t think they would be able to meet again.
“No,” Vaan calmly said.
“Prove that it’s not,” Eniwse doubted, but her trembling eyelashes showed clear signs of accepting the reality of their situation.
Vaan thought about giving her a slap of pain to awaken her to the ‘reality,’ but he ultimately smiled and gave her what she wanted: a kiss to reconfirm their bond.
Eniwse closed her eyes and savored the moment.
Time seemed to have frozen at that moment for Eniwse, but she knew they couldn’t keep it up with so many eyes watching.
Nevertheless, after their lips parted, Eniwse made him a promise with conviction.
“You braved the dangers of the Thousand Fog Mountains to find me. And although I don’t know what you have sacrificed and suffered to gain your present abilities, I know you did everything to save me, which isn’t easy. So in this life, I dedicate myself to you.”
Along with Eniwse’s promise, Vaan received the system’s notification.

Nevertheless, Vaan didn’t pay too much attention to the system’s notification and simply held Eniwse in his arms, feeling the warmth emanating from her body.
Her smooth skin was cool to the touch, but her internal body temperature was burning high due to the remnant effects of his blood.
“Don’t think too much, and just focus on recovering your strength,” Vaan said to Eniwse.
Shortly after, he brought her over to meet the dragon lord and the others, who had thoughtfully waited for them to finish their touching reunion.
“Hello, Eniwse,” Lord Narvim took the initiative to greet her and said with a hint of sentimental emotion, “This Lord believes this is the first time we’ll be able to hold a proper conversation. Congratulations on your recovery.”
“Thank you, Your Excellency. I am indebted to you for the care you provided me,” Eniwse said.
“You were aware? Then do you remember… No, never mind,” Lord Narvim suddenly shook his head and said, “You’ve only just recovered, so you should rest. We can talk when you are better.”
“There’s a building to accommodate our human guests on the surface,” Lord Narvim mentioned before adding, “This Lord believes Young Lady Eniwse here would much prefer the comfort of a soft cotton bed than a hard stone bed in these caves, right?”
“Anywhere is fine. Someone like me won’t fuss over these things after coming back from hell, Your Excellency,” Eniwse said with a weak smile, but she couldn’t keep her gaze off the dragon lord.
She had this weird feeling that they had known each other for a long time, which was strange since she shouldn’t have met the dragon lord for longer than a few weeks.
“I’m sorry, have we met before?” Eniwse couldn’t help but ask.
“Have we?” Lord Narvim slightly smiled and said, “This Lord rarely leaves Ninth Peak, not to mention outside Thousand Fog Mountains. If we’ve met before, then perhaps you somehow stumbled into this land and saw this Lord when you were younger?”
“Is that so? Must have been my imagination then,” Eniwse shook her head and decided not to dwell on it. She didn’t have the energy to think.
At the same time, Vaan couldn’t help but glance at the dragon lord’s eyes.
There was a hint of sadness, warmth, and happiness in the dragon lord’s eyes, like a parent looking at their long-lost child.
‘It can’t be that, right? What are the odds?’ Vaan started to suspect.
After all, he himself was a transmigrator. Thus, there was no way that he would rule out the possibility of reincarnation.
Nevertheless, he chose to say nothing on the matter and simply introduced Astoria, Hester, and Aeliana to Eniwse.
But when it came to Aeliana’s turn, there was a lack of response from her.
Stare…
Aeliana’s mind was preoccupied as she clung to Vaan’s other arm with a hunched back while scrutinizing Eniwse’s chest area.
“Aeliana?”
“Ah? I wasn’t looking!”
After hearing Vaan’s call, Aeliana’s figure immediately straightened like a startled cat that had just been caught doing something she shouldn’t be doing.
“I didn’t say anything about that…”
“Oh…”
Aeliana scratched her head awkwardly.
