I felt like I had hurt her a lot by making her suck my cock, and played with her emotions.
Seeing her cry, I was tempted to manipulate her thoughts just like old tis, but doing so would be like lying to myself.
I wanted her to choose willingly, without any manipulation, or else it would make everything feels fake.
"I'm sorry," I repeated. "I didn't an it. I just wanted to cure you,"
She continued to cry, her shoulders shaking as she tried to catch her breath between sobs.
It was the first ti I had cared about a woman crying like that.
"I know," she finally managed to choke out between sniffles. "I know you didn't an it. It's just... it's just so hard."
'What was hard ? My cock or telling you to suck it ?' My mind wandered into forbidden territory, but I managed to calm my emotions down .
I remained silent, because I might say sothing inappropriate again, so I just allowed her to cry freely until her heart was satisfied.
After a few more seconds, she eventually stop crying, and pushed away slowly.
'Let's pretend this never happened,' she murmured, closing her eyes and attempting to regain her composure.
As she opened her eyes, her deanor returned to its previous state.
Composed and confident, the powerful woman from before had returned, but this ti, I could sense a colder shoulder as she looked at .
I didn't mind it much; I enjoyed the challenge.
With a snap of my fingers, I could have any girl I desired, including her.
But, I went on this long route deliberately, for I didn't want things to co too easily, or I might just die of boredom.
Besides, among all the won I've encountered, I still regarded Shao Mi as perfect woman to stay by my side.
Despite her sheltered upbringing leaving her naive to the world's ways, she possessed an innate innocence and principles.
So, in the end, I'm confident that all of this would be worth it.
"So…. what's your plan after this?" she inquired while using her power to cleanse herself.
Even her clothing underwent purification, and with her power restored, her charisma beca much higher.
She looked angelic in this mont, surrounded by swirling particles of light. They were like fireflies orbiting around her beauty.
'Stop staring,' she retorted after catching gazing at her body, 'I know you saved , but I've done enough to repay you.' Her tone shifted, firm and resolute. 'I won't allow you to toy with my emotions again.'
'Oh, she's really upset,' I sighed, realizing I needed to work harder to regain her favor.
Despite the urge to seize her and kiss her, I resisted.
"For now, my plan is to gather more information," I announced, raising my hands to retract the barrier I had created to conceal us from Zod's view.
Afterward, I gave him so instructions, and he exited the room to do his job.
He was rely one piece in my intricate plan, and once he set things in motion, a chain reaction would comnce.
'Can you send back to Earth?' Shao Mi's words echoed behind , leaving stunned by her request.
Is she planning to leave ? Have I really done sothing so cruel to anger her this much?
"Why do you want to go back?" I inquired, trying to figured out her motives without resorting to Mind Reading.
"I want to return ho. When I was attacked, I felt too weak to fight, so I fled. Padea told that my ho wasn't actually destroyed, so I'm certain soone betrayed ," she explained, there was so hint of frustration in her voice.
Hearing her explanation, I sighed in relief, knowing she wanted to return for a different reason.
However, I couldn't allow her to leave just yet.
Firstly, I still wanted her company, and at the sa ti, I was afraid she might act impulsively in my absence.
Despite regaining her powers, Earth still had more individuals more powerful than her.
And given my actions against Harvey's group, I was certain that every mber of the United Powers was on high alert.
I wouldn't even be surprised if they were currently on an ergency eting to uncover my identity and assess my threat level.
If Shao Mi were to reveal herself, she would be captured imdiately for interrogation.
"I can't do it," I lied, "Using the gate consus a huge amount of my powers. I need to wait for a certain period before I can open it again."
I knew she had no way of verifying my claim anyway, so this was the best course of action.
After hearing my explanation, she displayed no hint of disappointnt and just accepted my words.
"Alright, I'll just follow you," she spoke with a neutral tone. Continue your journey with My Virtual Library Empire
"Hey, do you hate ? If you do, then I won't impose myself on you anymore. You can stay in an Inn while I handle my affairs. After I send you back, we can part ways," I suggested.
She was stunned after hearing , taking a few monts before she could muster a reply.
'I— I don't hate you,' she said softly, 'I just don't know how to act towards you after what happened. Please, just give more ti to sort out my feelings.' Her eyes avoided mine this ti, showing her inner turmoil.
"Alright, take your ti," I replied, giving her space to process her thoughts.
After all the drama had subsided, we went out to search for Zayen.
It was odd; when I attempted to access Zod's mories, there was no trace of her whatsoever.
Not even her son, was present in his recollections.
That's why I decided to head straight to Zelly's room.
There were a lot of defense chanisms in place, but thanks to my abilities, bypassing them was a simple task.
However—
The mont we reached her room, I sensed sothing was amiss.
Suddenly, I felt weaker, and it wasn't just ; Shao Mi also experienced it, being forced to kneel on the floor.
'What's happening?' I murmured, closing my eyes and attempting to figure out the source of this constraint.
