Chapter 81 - Meeting Again Part Two
High above the sky, Creige looked down on a large mansion. The sun was already high in the sky. Creige was happy he made a teleport position near all the cities within both the Stone Hammer Kingdom and the Rural Kingdom. This allowed him to move around quickly within the two kingdoms.
He floated down to one of the second-floor patios where a young girl was leaning against the railing, looking out across the lawn, seemingly lost in thought. Her red dragon tail wagged back and forth. Creige landed behind her and walked over, and stood next to her. The girl didn't move in the slightest, even when she knew he was there. He reached his big hand and placed it on her head, patting it gently. "Have you been well?"
"Mmm… I will be going to the academy soon, and tomorrow I will be going out with Ceilie to begin leveling again. So things will be busy soon." Kana replied as she leaned into Creige, closing her eyes. His petting was very comfortable, allowing her to feel relaxed.
The two went quiet and just looked out over the landscape, lost in thought. "I'm sorry," Kana suddenly said, breaking the silence.
"What for?" Creige asked.
"Although I did not know what I was doing at the time, I did force you into marriage." Kana replied. Her voice going soft. She felt bad. She knew things like marriage were meant to be with the person you love, but Creige was forced into a marriage without even being given a choice. She herself only found Creige handsome, plus the fact that he saw her without clothes on, which was why she was fine with making him take responsibility. But she didn't know if Creige was fine with it. She didn't want to lock him down if he had someone else he had his heart set on. "If you wish to not be bound to me, I will understand…"
Creige's big hand shook Kana's head, causing her to feel dizzy and look up at him, pouting. "You may have forced it on me by accident, but it is fine. I do not mind at all. I said before that when you grow older and wish to actually be with me, then I will be waiting for you. I even said you are free to come and visit me anytime you please. We demons care for the one we marry. So the moment we became bound, my heart was already yours. You're still young and have plenty of time to think things out. Just know that I will always be there for you, and with the magic I cast on you before I can save you if the need arises.
"I can promise you I will always be there waiting." Creige smiled and hugged Kana.
Kana felt a warmth she never felt before begin to form inside her. She smiled and hugged Creige back as she said: "Then I guess my handsome husband will be stuck with me then."
"I guess so." Creige lips turned up. He looked down at the little girl showing her teeth to him as she grinned and pulled out the metal box he made to hold Kana's sword and handed it to her. "I made this for you. It will keep you safe."
Kana took the box and looked at it. She opened it up to reveal a shiny necklace that looked like glass. Her eyes lit up when she saw the necklace that had a small sword attached to it. "So pretty! Are you sure I can have it!?"
"Mhm… I forged this sword just for you. It is made out of a special ore called heavenly ore. This kind of ore allows for enchantments that can be used automatically or verbally. It has four spells chanted into it. A healing spell that will regenerate its owner's [HP] over time. A protection spell that will reduce the damage you take from physical attacks. A teleportation spell which will allow the owner to summon the sword from anywhere, and lastly, a transformation spell you can activate by saying "Change". In order for anyone to use it, it needs to be bound by the owner and can only have one owner for all eternity. Hold the necklace in your hand and drop a bit of your blood on it. This will form a bond with the sword making you its owner." Creige explained.
Kana did as she was told and bit the tip of her finger and dropped a drop of her blood onto the necklace. The necklace flew out of Kana's hand and hovered in the air in front of her before glowing brightly and slowly changing its size until the sword was just the right size for Kana to wield. "It is only this size now, but as you grow older and get taller, it will also grow in size to match its owner."
"This is amazing! I love it!" Kana said happily as she reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword. The long glass-like blade shimmered with a silver light. It had an intricate design of roses and thorns carved into the hilt and along the blade. Kana's eyes glowed as she traced her hand along the carvings. "It really is beautiful."
Kana giggled and pulled Creige's arm, making him kneel down next to her. "Thank you!" She said sweetly as she kissed his cheek. This kiss made Creige smile, knowing Kana liked the weapon he forged. He reached his hand up and patted Kana's head as she stared at the sword in her hands with a smile on her face.
"Ahem… It seems I have interrupted something… Mr. Lolicon."
