Chapter 92 Indulgence Harms the Body, I Love You.
“Mr. Rabbit, don’t you have anything to say or ask?” Arip asked the silent Easter. He thought his darling would be unable to resist asking questions, as there were so many things to ask. However, Easter’s expression remained unchanged, and he couldn’t tell what Easter was thinking.
“No need,” Easter said. “My attitude is the same as Asan’s. Just ask me anytime you need help, and I’ll do whatever you want.”
As an outsider, he could be said to have no stance, but with the existence of Arebo, his stance became Arebo's.
Easter's wholehearted acceptance filled Arip with emotions he didn't know how to express. "Baby, Mr. Rabbit, Easter..." he called her one by one, "I love you."
The power of those three words is deadly to anyone, and East is no exception.
Before today, they had only ever told each other they liked each other. They both knew the weight of the word "love." For some casual and frivolous people, it may sound light and airy, but for those who are serious and demanding about relationships, this word is nothing less than the most solemn vow and the most sincere promise.
"What's wrong, are you stunned?" Aripel lifted Easter's chin, a suggestive smile playing on his lips. "Baby, you're wonderful. It's understandable that I fell in love with you. Why are you so surprised?"
Easter choked up. How could it be excusable? He was utterly awful. In terms of looks and family background, he was no match for Areper.
This wasn't because he was insecure or lacked confidence; it was simply the truth, and no one could refute it. He thought that for their relationship to deepen, they might need to spend more time together. He thought that it might be a long time before they uttered the word "love." He had imagined many scenarios—grand and magnificent, filled with the flames of war, or just a quiet afternoon—but he never expected it to happen now. It was too ordinary, too sudden, without any preparation, catching everyone off guard.
“Baby~ If you don’t even say you love me, you should at least say you like me~ Otherwise I’ll lose face~” Aribo said in an extremely affected tone, but it just seemed cute coming from him. His coquettishness and complaints sounded like teasing and flirting, but there was not much real complaint.
Easter leaned forward and kissed Arip's lips. "I like you, and I love you too." He said the last four words with some difficulty, but there was no doubt about his sincerity.
After saying it, he felt a sense of relief, as if the dust had settled. Saying "I love you" wasn't as difficult as he had imagined. He thought their relationship hadn't reached that point yet, and he thought he wasn't sure about their feelings for each other. But when he actually spoke it out, he realized that the weight of feelings isn't determined by time. There's no fixed standard for measuring it. It's all about the heart. If you feel it's enough, then it's enough.
Arip's eyes lit up, the light spreading from his eyes to his face, bright and radiant. He rarely lost his composure; he was glowing with excitement. Overwhelmed with emotion, he hugged Easter tightly, repeating "Baby, I love you, I love you, I love you..." over and over again in Easter's ear.
Easter gently nibbled on Arip's ear and said, "I love you too, only you."
Aripor shut his mouth, showing a rare shyness in front of Easter. "Baby, now that we've finished talking about love, it's time to get down to business."
The atmosphere is just right; it would be a shame not to do something.
East remained silent for a moment, then cautiously asked, "Was the food we ate yesterday anything special?"
Arip slapped East on the head, lightly pressing his hand against his scalp, and said through gritted teeth, "Baby, can you stop being such a spoilsport?"
East, "..." This can't be blamed on him, can it? How long has it been? This seemingly limitless energy would make anyone suspicious.
"What a wonderful atmosphere!" Arip lamented, inwardly furious. Why did he choose such a blockhead? He couldn't understand romance, nor appreciate its boundless beauty.
Easter gently embraced Arip, placing a light kiss on his forehead, then moving down his face, from his eyebrows to the tip of his nose, and finally to his lips.
Gently sucking, slowly and tenderly lingering, warm and gentle yet brooking no resistance.
Aripor's body slowly softened, his thoughts drifting as if into warm water, leaving only comfort and ease, and he unconsciously let out soft moans.
Perhaps because the time was really too short, everything went very smoothly.
The sofa was too cramped, but thankfully there was a soft carpet on the floor, enough for people to stretch out.
The gray carpet darkened to a grayish-black color after sweat got in.
Arip, with hazy eyes, smiled dreamily, "Baby, you're too obedient, too self-restrained, that's not good."
East lowered his head, brushing his hand through Arip's hair. His long, golden curls, like the melting gold of the setting sun, spread out on the gray carpet, making them even more dazzling.
“Didn’t we say we’d make changes?” Arip continued, “Like last night was great, so comfortable, so wonderful.”
Easter reached out and covered Areper's outspoken mouth, her entire beautiful face flushing red. "You, you..."
“Alright, it seems I can’t change your composure, Mr. Rabbit, anytime soon,” Aripelone said, adjusting his position so that he was on top of East and below him. He looked down at the person beneath him with a squinty smile. “Remember the day we first met? It’s alright, you don’t need to move today.”
East didn't struggle much; he stumbled straight into a vast blue world, a world full of endless secrets, magnificent and dreamlike.
Aripel winked playfully, leaned down, and breathed softly, “Baby, I was thinking that I didn’t want to hear you apologize, I just wanted to hear something nice, otherwise it would be a waste of your beautiful voice.”
“I don’t know,” Easter said, putting his arm around Arip’s waist, looking directly into his eyes, and smiling. “Can you teach me?”
“Of course, no problem,” Arip said, his mouth dry with desire. “I don’t think you can be as shameless as me, so I’ll just teach you a few simple things.” He leaned close to Easter’s ear and whispered a few unspeakable words.
Easter's entire body grew increasingly flushed, her eyes darted around, and her red lips parted slightly, making her look exceptionally alluring.
After Arribel finished speaking, he straightened up and touched East's lips with his fingertip. "Your flustered little look is really charming, just like when we first met."
Easton had once again experienced Arip's shamelessness; the things he taught were utterly shameless and would surely be censored if spoken aloud.
Arip began his actions seriously, but he managed to speak while maintaining steady breathing, "Baby, you can't even handle this? What are you going to do later? I know you're shy and won't say those things, so I'll have to take over. And if I take over, it definitely won't just be like this, for example..."
Combined with facial expressions and gestures, the resulting lethality is on a completely different level.
Easton was almost as red as a shrimp. "No, no...stop."
"Don't stop." Aripelago misinterpreted the meaning of Easter's words and instead of restraining himself, he became even more reckless.
A drop of sweat clung to Arriber's chin, an ordinary drop of sweat that, with his movement, landed on his fair chest, mingling with countless other water droplets.
"Do you want me to teach you how to shut me up?" Arip slowed his movements, wiping away what he couldn't tell was either sweat or tears from the corner of East's eye. "Like this."
Their lips met, the kiss making a loud "tsk tsk" sound. A kiss controlled by Arip is usually not gentle; it's plundering and biting, leaving no chance to breathe, yet it doesn't really hurt anyone—a kind of ferocious tenderness.
"There's more like this." While East was still confused, Areper quickened his pace, and all he could make out were muffled groans he couldn't suppress.
This was absolutely terrible. Easter was dragged into a vortex of desire, sinking into depravity with the person on top of him, indulging in fleeting pleasure.
...
They fussed around until almost lunchtime. After they had both finished washing up, Easter said seriously to Aripelago, "Indulgence is harmful to health."
Aripor used magic to dry their hair, then lazily lay down on the sofa, like a big cat basking in the sun after a good meal. Hearing Esther's words, he merely lifted his eyelids and said, "Baby, is that for normal people, or do you really want me to find some special ingredients to nourish you?"
East's facial expressions were quite fascinating.
“Okay, okay, I know what you mean, baby,” Arip said, having already stirred up the fire, only to give in the next moment. His tactics were truly something else. “It’s not that this is a rare opportunity, but if I don’t do it a few more times, what a waste for me! After we part ways in a couple of days, who knows when we’ll see each other again? You can’t blame me for being ungrateful; it’s all because of time. Did I not make you feel good enough? It’s fun for me to lie there properly, but it’s also a different kind of pleasure for me to be on top. Wouldn’t it be better to explore a couple more positions?”
Arip's rapid-fire speech didn't give Easter a chance to speak. Only after Arip stopped did Easter manage to interject, "I understand," he said, "normal people have needs, and I'm no exception, but too frequent use is ultimately harmful to the body. It will be fine after this period."
Aripor stopped his rambling and looked at East with a thoughtful expression. "Mr. Rabbit," he called out once, his expression becoming lazy again, "aren't you afraid that we'll become enemies later and meet on the battlefield?"
This is a serious topic that requires careful consideration, but it's clearly not what Areper initially wanted to ask.
Easter's heart skipped a beat, and he replied, "They are in dire straits themselves now, so they can't possibly not value the role my summoned creatures can play."
If we don't kill East at the beginning, and wait until he grows up, then at this moment when the continent is in turmoil, no one, not even a god, can touch him.
Aripor let out a light and unrestrained laugh, "As expected of my darling."
“If you do anything dangerous, you must tell me.” Easter stared intently at Areber. Based on the devil’s conversation earlier that day, it wasn’t hard to see what would happen next.
"Don't worry, baby, I'm not the type to put on a brave face." Arip could see the ulterior motive between the demon and his baby, but he only needed to know that there was no danger and that the demon wouldn't pose a threat to his baby. He would naturally find out more when the time was right.
A knock came at the door.
"It must be my summoned creature bringing lunch." East went to open the door.
Arriber lay on the sofa with his eyes half-closed, seemingly boneless, offering no comment.
The people outside were indeed players, but they weren't there to deliver lunch.
Meimei didn't pry too much into the room, only explaining the reason for her arrival: "His Highness the Crown Prince of the Sinclair Empire sent an invitation to discuss the specifics of the cooperation this afternoon."
Easter nodded his thanks, almost forgetting that he hadn't come here for romance, but to discuss business cooperation.
The players had their own guesses about Ister's mysterious actions, and their guesses were close to the truth. With a little observation, it wasn't hard to see that their king wasn't the only one in his room. But so what? They were the king's summoned creatures, and their stance, the direction of their swords, was all for their king.
East walked into the room with the invitation, looking at the rules listed by the system in his mind. They were all very lenient for both parties, and it was just an exchange of benefits. Both he and the other party had a lot of freedom.
“Mr. Rabbit, do you need my help?” Arip asked bluntly, not pretending that he hadn’t heard the conversation outside.
Easter shook his head and said, "I can handle this."
"My baby is so amazing." Arriber's praise sounded like he was teasing a child.
East disagreed. He had already figured out how to get along with Arip. He didn't need to be eloquent or perfect in every way. He just needed to be himself in front of Arip. Arip wouldn't hate or despise him for it. On the contrary, deception would make him unhappy.
“This situation…” Areber’s gaze drifted into the distance, “It’s time for a change, it should have been changed long ago.”
Easter ran a hand through Areper's hair, her smile tender and gentle. "It will be alright, everything will be alright."
Arip held East's hand. He never thought he would find someone to walk with on this lonely road. He had no shortage of friends to walk alongside him. They were like brothers who would die for each other and would entrust their lives to each other. But love came unexpectedly, leaving him unable to resist or fight back. He could only accept it calmly. Fortunately, although this road was full of thorns, neither of them were weaklings who would hide behind their lovers. They could walk together.
