"Good girl… good girl… you did such a good job tonight," She whispered into my ear, and as she cleaned me up with a towel and wrapped me in a warm blanket, I snuggled my face into her breasts before falling asleep.
"I love you…." I muttered under my breath.
"I love you too… now get a restful night,"
…
The next morning, I woke up to snow still falling down from the sky, but I was currently in the tight grasp of my knight.
"Good morning," She muttered while placing her hand on the back of my head and pushing me further into her embrace, which I eventually just sank into, not caring anymore about my pride or anything else.
"Good morning," I muttered as my hands wrapped around her back from the sleeping bag and pulled her tighter towards me.
I snuggled my face into her chest as she giggled slightly before eventually tearing me out of her embrace as I got a bit too comfortable.
"We have to continue traveling today. We can't just stay here," She muttered as we slipped out of the sleeping bag and began to pack up our things.
I was a bit embarrassed from all the things I had done last night, so I could only flicker my eyes towards her eyes as we passed by each other.
But, that only lasted for a few minutes as she dropped all our luggage while still in the tent and wrapped her arm around my waist.
"Babe… look me in the eyes,"
My body shivered, and I couldn't resist the feeling of my eyes dragging upwards and eventually locking with the woman in front of me.
"Would you like this to be a one-night stand, or do you want to try and have a serious relationship?" She asked, and I felt a bit offended as I thought we were on the same plane of thought.
But, I didn't pout as I instantly replied with,
"Of course… Let's try a relationship out," I replied, but before I could tilt my head down to avoid her gaze, she caught my chin with her fingers and pulled me in for a sweet and short kiss.
GRRRRRRRRRRR
Though, it seems we were interrupted by an intruder outside who detected us through their incredible smell.
"Want me to take care of it?" Quincy asked, but as I was feeling a bit restless and empowered by this new relationship, I excitedly stood up and exited the tent.
A massive twenty feet tall yeti greeted us, but a surge of power and excitement mingled with adrenaline rushing through my veins.

…
"[Smoke of a Blacksmith]," I muttered, and my body soon melted into gray ash with smoke rising from it and entering the gaping mouth of the yeti.
He attempted to tussle with the non-tangible material but eventually lost as I infiltrated his entire body, and he began to melt from the inside out.
His eyes, ears, nose, and mouth puffed smoke as it roared in pain, those organs eventually melting into orange goo.
"Wow… That was incredible," Quincy muttered in amazement as I reformed into my normal self right in front of the melted corpse.
The feeling of experience flowing into my body was intoxicating as always, but I didn't let time soak it up as I lunged into my girlfriend's embrace, which she happily accepted me with open arms.
Feeling her pat my head and scratch my scalp felt better than any kill with experience that I had ever gone through before.
"Can you… call me by name?" I asked while looking up at Quincy with puppy eyes that instantly made her heart melt.
She chuckled slightly upon seeing my pitiful expression before opening her mouth to grant my singular wish.
"Hepha… shall we get going now?"
"Let's go!" I shouted before helping her pack up the rest of our things with a smile so big that it pierced the clouds.
…
After another week of traveling and extremely steamy nights, we finally arrived at the kingdom of frost rabbits, who personally greeted us.
I didn't remember sending them a message that we would be coming, but it seemed my aunt took care of everything for me as a pair of royal knights and a beautiful rabbit woman greeted us at the gate.
"Welcome to my kingdom. Please allow us to escort you and introduce the entirety of the kingdom," The princess said before allowing us to enter her very own carriage that was decorated to the max.
We instantly stood out as we strolled through the streets, the princess introducing her favorite food vendors, people, stores, and all kinds of things… but once we arrived at her palace, which was probably just as big as mine, she turned all serious.
"Princess… I know this wasn't part of our deal, but may I ask you something?"
We were escorted into the palace and shown to our room, but during that short trip, my first intense business meeting happened.
"Princess, I need your help with my kingdom. It has become so corrupted that practically zero nobles listen to us and our already traitors to our alliance. Eventually, we'll be absorbed into the tyrannical rule of the ice drakes, so if I ever need assistance or manpower, will you help me out?"
"Then, what is it in for me? Is there something that I will get?"
"We will pay you hundreds of gold coins- no, thousands of gold coins per hundred soldiers."
"No can do. I already have too much money to count… give me something else… and I don't want a personal relationship with you. We aren't friends, just partners right now… got it?" I asked, and the woman seemed a bit surprised by my stern attitude.
I wasn't going to let her boss me around, and I certainly wasn't going to make a horrible decision for the sake of my kingdom.
"*sigh*... Alright, fine. I'll give you a share of my territory… and don't worry, it's the closest piece of land to your kingdom, so it shouldn't be too hard,"
I was shocked by the woman's bold deal as this just accentuated how desperate she truly was to save her kingdom… but that didn't mean it was guaranteed that this was for a good reason or purpose.
She could want absolute power in her kingdom, and once the deal is done, she can put all the dark secrets onto me and have my bounty plastered across the plane.
Of course, my kingdom will shelter me, but the sheeple will go with everything, forcing me to be sheltered for the rest of my life… so I needed some time to think about this deal.
The risks were too much for just a casual deal made while they were showing me around my small villa.
"And… that is it? Is the villa to your liking?" The knight asked, intercepting our little conversation, eventually gathering the glare of both the princess and me.
"Yes, it is to my liking. Now, you are excused," I said, waving the guy off before leaving just me, the princess, and Quincy standing in the middle of my beautiful garden.
"So… what is your answer?" The princess asked once again.
"I'll need some time to think about it. I hope that doesn't anger you," I replied, and the princess' expression twitched slightly.
It seemed she was hoping for an automatic answer, but as she didn't want to anger me, she just silently nodded before waving goodbye.
"Now~... Shall we try out this new bed of yours? It's impressively large," Quincy muttered as she wrapped both arms around my waist and pressed her waist against mine.
I looked back with an excited smile and said,
"Of course,"
…
The next few days were quite peaceful as I was strolling through the streets and gathering more information.
I noticed the corruption within this capital was quite heavy, just like the rabbit had explained, as not only were there multiple shops trying to scam me, but there were bandits and thieves at every corner of the city.
I had to keep all my belongings tightly close to me just so I wasn't robbed in dead daylight without me even knowing what was happening.
"Huh? Isn't that?"
All of a sudden, Quincy pointed out a carriage that began to stroll down the street, carried by very burly and muscular horses.
The carriage looked as if it was for nobles, and the woman sitting peacefully inside locked eyes with me.
"Mom?" I muttered, my entire being freezing in place as I stared into the singular glass pane.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Good girl… good girl… you did such a good job tonight," She whispered into my ear, and as she cleaned me up with a towel and wrapped me in a warm blanket, I snuggled my face into her breasts before falling asleep.
"I love you…." I muttered under my breath.
