Chapter 582 - 558: Before Departure 2
Air moves in blossoming brilliant arcs within the sun rays of a new day.
Alex woke up and sat up, glancing sideways; a beautiful sight greeted him.
Before him was a pair of breasts, rising and falling in a gentle, constant rhythm. The pajamas covering them were open slightly, giving Alex a peek of the purple underwear hidden beneath. Swallowing despite himself, Alex looked up only to be confronted by the beautiful face of a sleeping girl. Her black hair shone in the golden rays of the morning. The girl's pink lips were parted as light; adorable breaths slipped from between them. Lovely eyelashes quivered as she slept, though her smooth, white skin remained undisturbed, her cheeks were a little bit rosy.
Alex enjoyed Sakuya's sleeping face for five minutes before deciding to quit. He went out to freshen up, and after finishing, he sat on the chair. It was time to check his status, to check what he had gained after completing that hidden quest.

''Well, not bad,'' Alex mumbled upon checking his status; apart from getting three levels, he gained a considerable amount of Fame points which was sufficient to challenge the Tower at the capital.
?Indeed, your gains are not bad; it was thanks to that hidden quest you managed to cumulates so many Fame points, and your level increased. Normal quests wouldn't have given you so much, only if you selected ten hard mode quests or five Hell mode quests only that you will have the chance to get what you have acquired.?Silveria said to Alex and he couldn't help but nod.
''I need a few more things before departing. Thankfully I got something special that would help us not waste any gold coins or Fame points to travel to the capital.''
?Ah! I remember you must be talking about that golden key.?Silveria said upon hearing Alex's words, the latter nodded before taking out a small golden key. After playing with it for a moment, he stored it away and stood up; coincidentally, Sakuya happened to have woken up at that time.
''Good morning, Mio.'' Alex greeted Sakuya, who was still rubbing her eyes as though she had not gotten enough sleep.
''Yawn! Good morning Alex.'' Sakuya yawned as she responded to Alex.
Alex chuckled, seeing Sakuya, who seemed like she would fall back to sleep at any moment, he got the perfect solution to dispel her drowsiness, but first, he must tease her.
Opening his mouth, Alex spat, ''Well, normal considered what happened last night.''
Sakuya lowered her head thinking about some scenes; she blushed like an innocent maiden; however, Alex's following words made her aware that she had misunderstood what he meant.
''Venturing out late in the night to satisfy your urges can be pretty tired.''
Sakuya flinched upon hearing Alex's words; although she had thought that she perfectly slipped away, she guessed it was the case.
Before she could say anything, Alex shrugged his shoulders as if it to say it was not a big deal; then, he opened his mouth to say what he had meant to say since the beginning.
''I'm waiting for you in the mountain for a quick sparring match. Don't take too much time, by the way; I have prepared breakfast for you.'' Saying this, Alex brought the breakfast he had secretly prepared and placed it in front of Sakuya, who was surprised; however, apart from the initial feeling of surprise, there was a subtle smile formed on her face, she felt sweet feeling building up inside her chest, she gave Alex a beautiful smile disappeared like a wind to brush her teeth before coming back to dig in.
Alex watched her devour the foot on the plate in no time.
''It's truly delicious. Next time I will make you some specialties from my hometown, I'm sure you will like them.'' She said, and Alex nodded.
''Sure, I'm looking forward to it.''
The two left Sakuya's mansion and went into the mountain behind her mansion. Sakuya stood before Alex's hand over her katana, her body slightly tilted forward.
Clangs!
Suddenly, the coin Alex had tossed into the sky reached the ground, producing a sound; this marked the beginning of the match.
Almost faster as the light itself, Sakuya unsheathed her katana and arrived before Alex; the speed with which she moved was godly; she was not holding back, not in the slightest.
Swoosh!
Alex calmly leaned to the side, letting the katana swept past him; suddenly, Sakuya's katana moved in reverse and struck Alex.
But, before the katana could land, he bent his posture so close to the ground and ducked.
The swift movement, at first glance, seemed to appear as Alex had no room for error and placed immense strain on his joints; however, Sakuya knew it was not the case, wind gathered under her feet to propel her into the sky, she succeeded in dodging Alex cross leg counter.
As the two descended to the ground, they unleashed their power; wind covered Sakuya's body, increasing her speed while Alex used one of his Tempus Infinitum abilities.
Flurries of blows were exchanged at close range.
Both passed each other after these exchanges, with Sakuya falling onto the ground, puking blood; Alex tasted blood in his mouth due to having received an unexpected sword strike. From Nyx's words, Sakuya would open a new element as soon as she used it with her strongest attack.
''Let's end it, for now; we will continue next time. By the way, nice progression. I'm proud of you; you have become a bit stronger; keep up..'' Alex complimented as his butt landed on the ground; Sakuya nodded but was unable to lift her head as she was too tired; however, she was happy even though she had lost, she succeeded in leaving an injury on him, it's an accomplishment.
