Truthfully, Kanes looks and capability were quite exceptional. It was just that Estian had been crafted to be an overly incredible character. The saintess reached out towards the knight commanders disheveled hair, but rather than fixing it, she tousled it up even more.
I knew it,she thought, gulping dryly. Her thoughts bore out to be truethe more reginted soone was, the more striking they appeared when they finally let their hair down. There was sothing seductive about that stark contrast from their initial impressionlike the mont when a perfectly dressed man in a suit ripped off his necktie. Kanes current unkempt look was so perfectly suited to her taste. It was downright drool-inducing.
Ogling him for a long ti, she furtively leaned her face towards him.Im gonna do it this ti. Im gonna kiss him!Shed lost the opportunity twice already. This mont was her chance! From what Kane had said, shed apparently stolen his first kiss, but it could hardly count if she couldnt rember it. Hovering over his face, the saintess stuck out her lips and began to lean in, when
Whatre you doing?
Holy! The saintess lifted up and whipped her head around in surprise at Irenes cold voice. Mi-milady, when did you wake up?
Since you began smacking your lips while looking at Sir Kane.
You were watching from the start?!The saintess hemd and hawed a bit before offering up an excuse. Th-that was just checking to make sure Sir Kane was still breathing, just in case
And thats why you stuck out your lips?
You sure were looking closely,the saintess grumbled inwardly. Unable to think up another excuse, the saintess averted her gaze.
After a pause, Irene asked, Are you really interested in Sir Kane? Hes not just one-sidedly pushing his affection on to you?
Uh, about that
Seeing the saintess falter, Irene suddenly began to tear up. Dont like Sir Kane, she wailed.
Why not? the saintess asked suspiciously. Irene was speaking as if she fancied Kane herself.That cant be it, right?
If you marry Sir Kane, then who will be my maid?
Wait, that was her worry? The saintesss expression turned cold as she replied, Borrow so imperial attendants.
No! I cant badmouth the empress with them.
Oh, I see. So, that was her purpose after all. Sighing loudly, the saintess said, I dont know if youve already heard, but apparently I assaulted Sir Kane. Since I took his first ti, shouldnt I take responsibility?
What does that matter in this ti and age? Just chalk it up as a fling, Irene swiftly argued.
Excuse ? The saintesss mind blanked out for a mont. Say what? Chalk it up as what?
You may forget if you are unsatisfied, a voice suddenly interjected from behind the saintess.
Kane! The saintess swung around in surprise to find Kane, who had sat up after awakening, gazing at her. She blinked dumbly as she looked into his eyes. The aftereffects of the spell shed cast made the stars twinkle dreamily behind him.
The disheveled-looking Kane drew his face closer and he tilted himself so that his lips were near her ear. In a low, dangerous voice, he whispered, But why dont you give a taste before making a decision?
The saintess stiffened from shock. Who was this? The Kane that she knew, or rather the character she had created, wouldve never said sothing like this. How could the knight commander look so unrestrained while licking his lips as he asked her to taste him? Witnessing this side of him, the saintess felt out of sync with this world for the first ti. At the sa ti, her heart began to pound, louder and harder than shed ever experienced since coming to this world.

Elsewhere, Tania was wailing in front of a certain blond man.
