327 Chapter 327: Teasing his new girlfriend
Nanna and Loki were over the moon right now, their little hearts beating a mile a minute. Frost was about to unveil the gifts that he got them while on his trip.
“Since you’ve been so enthusiastic in your training and would soon grow out of those wooden weapons I had my friend fashion up some new weapons for you.” Frost then removed the specially ordered child’s Warhammer and dagger sets.
Nanna and Loki’s eyes were glued to the weapons, unable to look away from how beautiful they were. Their current training weapons were simply made of heavy dull wood without a single adornment. These weapons however were not bland in the slightest. Having an elegant blue and silver colour scheme as well as intricate details in the craftmanship. The smith clearly put a lot of effort into forging them.
“They’re both superior 2 star grade weapons with the primary focus being on defence and training applications but even so they’re a hell of a lot sharper that what you have currently, so you’ll need to promise me that you’ll be careful when using them.” Frost held onto the weapons until he saw Nanna and Loki both nod their heads in understanding.
Once they promised to be careful and not treat them as toys Frost handed the weapons to their new owners, much to their delight. Maya however gave him a judging look, questioning his idea of an appropriate child’s gift being a weapon plus there was the knowing that it was Daki who made them, it irked her slightly.
“Along with the weapons I got you each some special armour.” Not finished wowing them, Frost removed the adjustable wrist guards Daki made in the same style as his armour. “These wrist guards will not only protect your hands and forearms but they’re a matching set, see.” Frost pulled back his sleeve to show that his wrist guards followed the same colour scheme and design pattern. It was hard to spot much difference between the three wrist guards but of course Nanna and Loki’s were a grade lower.
As the kids took hold of their new wrist guards and could see they were a match for Frost’s their little hearts nearly exploded. This meant so much to them, matching equipment made them feel like a proper family. Nanna and Loki’s eyes grew red before they both rushed at Frost, wrapping him in a hug, a veritable waterfall of happy tears dripped onto his robes, bringing a warm smile to his face.
It took them a good minute or so to calm down, they wiped their tears on their clothes and held their new weapons and wrist guards close to their chests, treating them as supreme treasures.
“Thank you master.” They didn’t forget their manners, thanking Frost with a bow before rushing to their rooms to help one another put on their presents.
.....
Frost watched them scuttle off, full of energy before turning to Maya. “Now I guess it’s time for me to give you your presents.” He showed a flirtatious smile before skilfully taking Maya in his arms and kissing her deeply.
“I think you already gave me that present.” Maya showed a teasing smile once Frost pulled away, very much enjoying his gift.
“True but I’ve got you an unlimited supply.”
“...” Both of them looked at one another in silence for a few seconds before laughing.
“That was pretty cheesy young master heheheh.” Maya’s laugh was full of charm, delicate and reserved as opposed to Daki’s that was loud and unrestrained.
“Well, I heard cheese goes will with wine.” Completing the punchline he removed the high C-grade wine he bought in Beta camp causing Maya’s eyes to light up.
“C-grade wine, not bad, we can split this tonight in celebration.” Maya quickly retrieved the bottle from Frost’s clutches, examining it from every angle like a well-established master.
“If you want to drink that one then that’s fine, I did have another in mind but oh well.” Frost shrugged his shoulders and showed a playful expression. His words made Maya freeze in place before turning his way.
“What other one in mind?” Upper C-grade wine was already a pretty good wine and pretty much the limit of what she expected Frost to be able to purchase in the external regions of the Glacial mountains. However, it suddenly dawned on her that Frost had a super, duper, awesomely rare bottle sealed away in the dungeon’s spatial vault. Her mind couldn’t help but fantasise about drinking that fabled wine.
The family gathering was weeks ago yet they still hadn’t opened up Dark’s self-brewed masterpiece [wine of the abyss]. By far in Maya’s eyes this was the greatest reward Frost received. Even rarer than the high grade earth rank cold flame that was stored safely in the private space. Frost had yet to fully examine the flame since he and Maya in particular felt that his individual strength was not high enough to truly comprehend the flame’s properties and avoid backlash.
Frost could see the light of hope in Maya’s eyes, his urge to tease was stoked. “Well considering I’ve returned after a long journey and that we’ve now entered a romantic relationship I thought it’d be worthy of celebrating. Something requiring a far better bottle than that C-grade one.”
“....How much better?” Maya had wipe the drool that accumulated on her lips from picturing the [wine of the abyss].
“I think you know?” Frost showed an evil smile, tempting Maya with his words. The alcoholic practically broke down at that point, the temptation being too much to resist. She appeared instantly by Frost’s side, wrapping herself around his arm and cushioning it between her large breasts before looking up at him with eye’s filled with desire -mostly for the wine.
“We’re really going to open the wine of th...” Before she could answer with [wine of the abyss] however Frost removed another bottle of wine from his spatial ring. One that was as he said superior to the one still in Maya’s hands but not the [wine of the abyss] given by his father.
It was B-grade, the same wine he had at the mayor’s manor on the night of the family feast. Chia had given him a bottle of the stuff as a farewell present, to which he thanked her generously. After ordering the weapons and armour for Nanna and Loki he felt that his original gift for Maya was lacking but thanks to Chia that problem was solved.
“This wine was given to me by Chia, Lola’s mother as a farewell present. I had a small glass of the stuff back in Kranor and found it to be quite delightful, it should make for a perfect celebratory wine don’t you think?” He then looked down at his partner who sported a very confused expression. Maya’s mechanically looked towards the bottle of B-rank wine which under normal circumstances would have put a brilliant smile on her face before looking up at Frost. Then suddenly her eyes grew red and misty as tears threatened to pour down her cheeks.
“You big meanie!” She pouted feeling very aggrieved inside, was their relationship only worthy of a B-rank wine, what did she have to do to partake in his [wine of the abyss].
Frost felt a little guilty when her heard her tone but had to finish “What’s wrong don’t you want to drink a B-grade wine?”
“Jerk you led me on, on purpose you knew what wine you hinted at!” Maya’s teary expression suddenly turned into anger, she revealed her sharp fangs and bit Frost’s shoulder in an aggrieved manner.
“Oowwwww”
“What do I have to do for you to let me drink that wine, was us becoming a couple not enough of a special occasion. Do I have to drag you into that bedroom and allow you to graduate into a real man?” Maya spoke with an incensed tone before glaring at her partner.
Frost looked at her and was stunned by what he heard, his mind drifting to the image of becoming a true man with Maya. A perverted smile grew on his lips and a certain area hardened.
Maya who was already pissed off flew off the handle when she saw her young master’s perverted smile. “You asshole you’re really thinking about trading that wine for sex!!” She bit his shoulder for a second time, though with a much greater intensity. The problem in Maya’s heart was that she couldn’t trust herself to reject such an offer if Frost really made it, her love of wine knew no bounds.
“Oowowowowoo! Maya I’m kidding, I’m kidding please stop biting me!” The intense pain in his shoulder swiftly eliminated the provocative images that filled his head. He would never make such a suggestion; he wasn’t that much of an asshole.
Maya removed her teeth that had been deeply embedded into her young master’s flesh, her glare still quite pronounced. “You were kidding?” Her expression showed that she didn’t believe him in the slightest. Frost felt an invisible punch to the gut at seeing her unbelieving expression.
“I’m sorry, I just wanted to tease you a little. I fully intended in opening father’s wine in celebration, the other two bottles are just gifts.” Realising that he had gone a little overboard- even though it was Maya that brought up such a suggestion in the first place- he spoke honestly. He was saving that wine for a very special occasion and what was a better occasion than today, He and Maya had officially become a couple, opening a super rare bottle of wine was the least he could do.
