"Why do you want to delay? If it was other won, they would pester day and night to know about the n they love. For you, you want to delay as if you have all the patience in the world. I don't mind telling you everything. I have things to prepare before I tell you everything. But you seem more reluctant than I am. Why is that?"
She looked away. "I fear that you will lose interest in after every secret is revealed."
Arthur knew that he deserved it after playing with won but that was before they knew each other. He didn't have any interest in those annoying beings but she was different. He cared greatly about what she thought or did. If she was feeling insecure due to his action, he felt guilty.
"I'm sorry. Making you feel like this was never my intention. I never got close to other won after I t you, I promise." He was telling the truth at this point. After tasting her on the first night, he lost appetite for other won.
"That's not the only reason. I have secrets that I want to share with you but I need ti. So, I'm giving you ti as well. It's not fair if one has the upper hand in the relationship. Also, I don't mind if you talk to other won. As long as you don't betray , I'm fine with it. As you sit in a high position, you need to chat and et with several people. I cannot hinder your work."
"My princess is generous," he praised her. He was relieved with her consideration. He had subordinates who were female magicians. It would be awkward if he couldn't talk to them due to his work.
And then, she added, "You must also allow to talk to n and talk about them."
"That's…" Arthur couldn't say anything. Just imagining her talking to n with her usual innocent and alluring smile that drew n to her made him feel like want to gauge out all n's eyes.
Veronica realized that he was reluctant. She urged him, "You have to be generous for my sake too. You do realize 80% of people here are all n." The last ti when she talked about a tribal man, they almost did it in the forest, around her sleeping friend and his subordinate. She didn't want history to repeat itself.
Arthur confessed, "If you talk about other n, I will get jealous."
She suggested, "What if I talk about them behind your back?"
He instantly frowned. "That won't do."
She probed, "As long as you don't hear what I say, you won't get jealous."
Arthur shook his head. "That won't do. Now that you have told , I will constantly think you are talking and eyeing another man behind my back."
She argued, "Oh you! If I wanted to do sothing behind your back, I wouldn't have said it in the first place!"
"I know but I still get jealous. Love is unreasonable," saying that he pecked on her lips.
A kiss couldn't appease her. She declared, "I will do whatever I want. You can't stop . Hmph!"
"I won't stop you." Arthur wasn't planning to stop her in the first place. He got a better idea.
Veronica bead. "Really?!"
He said, "I'll punish you at night."
"What!" She exclaid. Her face flushed in embarrassnt. She thought of the night in the forest. Her mind was filled with dirty thoughts.
Arthur announced, "Every ti you talk about n, we will do it in a new position."
"Do what in what position?" Veronica was confused. Sotis, she had no idea what he was talking about.
Arthur stroked her head as though she was a child. He told her, "You will know soon enough."
To change the shaful subject, she said, "Wait, I want to see the crystal that showed you the darkness in the temple."
He replied, "It's in this room."
"In this room," Veronica looked around and gasped. She was amazed by the decoration of the room. "Oh my goodness! Arthur! This room is extraordinary! It's like sothing out of a fairy tale!"
Arthur looked pleased. "I'm glad that you finally noticed."
"How did I not notice before?" Veronica stood up. Her eyes were sparkling as she couldn't control her excitent. She looked like a child who was in the amusent park for the first ti. "Arthur, did you do this with your magic? You are the best magician I've ever seen!
Arthur chuckled. His mood improved quite a lot. "I'm feeling happier to know that when I'm around, your eyes are fixed on . Do you want to show you around?"
"Absolutely!" she vigorously nodded her head.
He showed her around the large room and told her about the magical artifacts. She couldn't understand most of them. However, she realized so of them were very dangerous. So magical artifacts could literally destroy the world in one blow.
"Is it okay to keep them here? What if soone stole it from here and used it just like the crystal magic ball?" she asked him worriedly.
"That won't happen." Arthur shook his head. "This is one of the safest rooms in the tower. Only Ovior and I can access this room. From now on, you can too."
She inquired, "Is it okay for to enter when you are not around?"
"Of course, if you miss , you can co here as you please. As for urgent matters, if I'm not present and so work has to be done, you can work at my place. However, you can never allow anyone other than Ovior. If sothing bad does happen, everyone will bla you. Most certainly, I will kill any magician who will bla you but I fear you can't get rid of the guilt. You are too soft." His hand rubbed her face.
Veronica touched his hand and glanced at him. "You thought everything through, didn't you? I wish I could think of you as much as you did. What do you want to do?"
