A Serpent's Tal Chapter 77: Date (2\/3)

Chapter 77: Date (2/3)

We ended up choosing to do one of the things Cythistia wanted to do first, which was take a romantic travel along the river which I didn’t know the city had.

We reached the ferryman who would take us on a tour through the city’s river. The ferryman was a bird-kin of so kind with brown feathers. He seed nice and complinted our love before taking us on our ride through the city’s river.

The gentle sounds of the water swashing as out boat caused it ripple combined with the faint sound of the bustling city was a relaxing experience. I leaned onto Cythistia’s shoulder as she rested her head atop my own.

We held hands as we made our way through the city, seeing various buildings with different purposes. We saw one building that seed to be an art gallery as they had open balcony’s that allowed us to see into them, showing us romantic works of art, which was probably a purposeful display.

Another building seed to be a restaurant that was perched up above the wall overlooking a garden on the opposite side of the river, which was actually one of the places I wanted to take Cythistia later, and I think she was planning on doing so as well judging by the slight smirk amidst her tender smile.

Soon we entered a dark tunnel that was quickly illuminated by bright blue crystalline dots from above. It illuminated the cave like the night sky. Though there were no moons like the actually night sky it was a beautiful sight nonetheless.

It was also apparently supposed to represent the constellations, sothing which Cythistia pointed out as she began naming so. So I started doing the sa.

We learned much about the constellations we didn’t know about from each other.

"Look there!" She cried out, pointing at a particular constellation that was glowing with a pink light. "That’s Aphrodite’s constellation. It’s said that the constellation only shows itself to those that the goddess herself approves of, even down here, certain constellations have magical powers, such as the sun and moon constellations which only appear at specific tis of day."

"Ooohh!" I understood her explanation, and in doing so felt a little embarrassed that the goddess would call us out like that.

"Haha."

*SMOOCH*

She giggled and gave

a kiss on my head, making

blush more, so I berried my face into her chest, making her giggle so more.

"You’re so cute you know?" She stated.

I just grumbled into her boobs, wanting to wash away this embarrassnt I felt.

Eventually I got over the embarrassnt and we went back to teaching each other about the various constellations until we ca out of the other side of the tunnel.

There we were greeted with a canopy of shimring blue leaves from so of the few functional branches that remained, which was actually enough to fill up the whole centre of the city but compared to what this place once was in ancient tis, it probably wasn’t considered a lot.

"Hey, you wanna see sothing cool?" My lover asked.

"Mmm!" I replied enthusiastically, because who wouldn’t want to see sothing cool?

"Okay, close your eyes, and don’t open them until I say so okay?"

I obliged to her request and closed my eyes. While I was waiting, I could hear her whispering so magic of so kind. I was very tempted to open my eyes but kept them shut so I wouldn’t spoil the surprise she was preparing.

A couple minutes went by and I could vaguely feel the shift in the surrounding mana. The curiosity was killing

but thankfully I didn’t have to wait any longer.

"Okay you can open your eyes now." She called out to .

I opened my eyes and saw that we had barely moved, and in Cythistia’s hand was a swirling vortex of magical energy. I was confused but she just told

to watch and blew of the vortex in her hands which then dissipated into floating particles that were quickly blown away.

A few seconds passed and I was about to say that nothing was happening, but that’s when the tree branches started dancing, literally, they started this mystical dance that released a special aura that washed outwards like a wave of serenity.

Soon I heard the sound of music playing.

"You hear that? That’s the song of nature, an extrely rare occurrence that hardly ever happens naturally, even this took a week of preparation and conversing with the city. I hope you enjoy it."

I couldn’t believe that she spent a whole week just preparing this magic scene for , and I didn’t even have the slightest chance to pull sothing like this off. I... I really want to, but I just don’t think I can.

I ignored the crushing feeling of inadequacy and just listened to the music that played as the branches swayed. I leaned into my love as she did the sa. We enjoyed each other’s warmth until we simultaneously looked at one another.

We stared into each other’s eyes for a while, seeing that passionate love, that caring smile, those luscious lips... I abruptly started kissing her lovingly. Not lewdly or sexually but I just had no other way to show my love for her at the mont. I cupped her face and she leaned into the kiss and cupped my face back.

We kept on kissing as the song played in the background, this mont slowly being etched into my heart forever.

Once the song ended, we finished our extrely passionate love filled kiss and realised that we had just gone past the canopy, hence why the song ended. Both of our faces were flushed red and we turned to look away from each other.

Soon though we reached the end of our journey on the river and got off. Since we were done, I asked where we were and it was quite close to one of the restaurants I’d marked as a go to for this date.

I led Cythistia over to a place called ’Succulent Service’ which was a place that primarily served at alongside a free blowjob for every item ordered. I wasn’t going to take the latter half though, as I wanted to finish lunch as soon as possible.

When we got there and were imdiately taken to the reservation I’d made for today.

"Oh wow, you went so far as to make a reservation, I’m impressed!" She was shocked at my foresight over this matter but it made sense wince she doesn’t know much about

or my upbringing. I was raised by Asmodeus himself so he taught

how to woo most girls, and I’m finally putting this knowledge to use.

When we arrived at our private booth, we were given a drinks nu and a food nu. We both chose very light drinks as we still had the rest of the day ahead of us. As for food, I chose an extra-large hotdog while Cythistia chose a small rabbit steak.

We spent our ti waiting for our food getting to know each other more and learning about the others past, of course I kept the conversation away from things that hurt.

By the ti our food had co out we’d learned a great deal about each other, such as our likes and dislikes as well as our life goals. Hers were just to start a family with soone she loved and protect her ho, very simple and she had apparently achieved that quite early on in her life thanks to .

We enjoyed our al as we chatted a bit more about more general things such as work since the mood for personal things had been set off a bit when the food arrived.

We finished our al and paid our bill before leaving. I wanted to foot the bill but she wouldn’t let , we had a little argunt about it before agreeing to pay half each and left.

Next up was a stroll through the park we saw earlier.
