Chapter 62: Training Zone (4)
After leaving his house, Hunter was confused to see Seraphina squatting before the rails… not like he could complain as the view of her ass from above was just perfect, but as he soon loomed over her, he noticed that she was facing a little cat whose face was drowned in the bowl of milk.
She was warmly looking at this little creature, looking adorable!
There was no hint of her strength on her body, only softness and warmth.
Since Aimee was still in the house, checking if everything was off, Hunter sat down next to his future wife and gazed into her face with an unrestrained smile on his face.
Chuckling, he took in her the picture of her awkwardly looking at him.
Seraphina asked, "Want to tease me about my incompetence?"
"Why would I? It's an opportunity to me, so I'm fond of that instead," Hunter tilted his head with even more merriness lifting the ends of his lips, bemusing the crimson-haired huntress. "Flaws are charming, you know? I read in a book that flaws more often charm the opposite gender instead of the perfect side. It's hard to tell what is perfection, isn't it? But now that I'm more socially experienced and licked some of the relationship crafting, I believe that real perfection is a mix of flaws and good sides."
Having no comment to that yet, Seraphina just raised her finger and whispered, "Come out, Ni."
Following her finger, Hunter was pleasantly welcomed by another cat peeking off the thick tree. It mewled as its spot was exposed, then hopped off to share the bowl with the cat Seraphina named Ichi.
Soon, Seraphina stood up and came close to the rail, lifting up the third cat that had been hiding from them.
"San… come and share milk with your brothers. I don't want you to wake me up at night again," Seraphina warmly looked into the cat's eyes, who had just meowed at her.
Soon, three of them had their muzzles and whiskers stuffed in the milk bowl.
At last, Seraphina alluded to Hunter's words, "Just like I thought cats only needed milk to survive, I believed I only needed strength to fulfill my goal."
Which was wrong… but luckily, Seraphina understood it now as she entered the yearly exam in search of more experiences and teammates.
She would have never expected that a man would read her and know about some of her secrets and that he would turn out to be the best teammate she could pick.
Yes, he ended up rallying her alongside Aimee to his team.
The experiences in the demons' invasion were crucial in that, as Hunter fought alongside her against the monster, he showcased that his heart was on a similar page with hers, and then, he had managed to take her out of this hell!
By killing someone she couldn't easily deal with, at that…
Well, the secrets he knew about her were more intriguing….
"It's such a childish thought! Haha!" Hunter laughed, drawing a stabbing gaze from Seraphina. "But endearing, nonetheless… I might know some of your secrets, but I can say with my chest that I am unaware of your main goal. I'm not a person who can't feel bad when someone keeps their secrets away from him… well, secrets are secrets, but we're meant to be a couple! There's so much blessing on our shoulders! And I'll unveil those secrets in the best way possible!"
"What way?" Seraphina curiously asked.
Hunter chuckled, "I'll pound a little common sense and a little affection into you slowly to become the most important person in your life! Because your perfect side and flaws are so full of opportunities alongside the blessings we have received that I can't imagine staying still and just looking at you!" Hunter coughed and glanced at the doors of his house before leaning closer to Seraphina, "We know your flaws… so perfect side now! You were just so adorable taking care of cats! You have a very warm side within you that I want to become a target of, too! Who wouldn't want to teach a strong and kind woman some common sense? Only an idiot wouldn't! But if someone else tries, I'll punch them away and tell them that you are already taken!"
"Don't go ahead of yourself-" Seraphina rattled off, only to see Hunter peeking at the doors again.
Was he worried that Aimee would hear him?
Snickering, Seraphina gave him her ear to speak more! For some reason, it was quite amusing for her, which was a feeling she hadn't felt before.
It was like a battle… but quite a different battle!
Hunter noticed a change and smiled, "I see! We've become so close already!" Which was why Hunter felt like he could be as bold as to spit out all his impressions of Seraphina's perfect side. "You're so hot! Your dark eyes are often so sharp, yet they can become so beautiful that anyone would look precious in their reflection. I want to make your eyes be glazed with affection! And those curves, just now, as you squatted before the door, I couldn't take my eyes off your big ass-"
Hearing those words, Seraphina's hand instinctively rose to punch Hunter's face…
…but she stopped and turned her eyes away from him.
At last, she bit her lips and whispered, "I was holding myself back… but I really do hate being a target of lust craving. I find… sex… repulsive."
"I see…" Hunter seriously nodded as he sensed that Seraphina was sincere and even pained, "Well, I'm a virgin, so what can I know about that? I can tell that you're happy taking care of the cats, though! Let me help you! If one of them comes close to your window at night for milk, I'll be the one to help them!"
Even though she said that, Hunter still wanted to craft his relationship with her, and his interest in her didn't diminish a little!
Why was it so relieving and warming?
Seraphina didn't know and became mute as she stroked the mewling cats who were protesting against Hunter taking care of them.
Just look at his hands! So rough and full of callouses! What was he doing in his life so far?
Moreover, so big! So big hands! Dude, go hold melons or something!
Hunter squinted his eyes at the meowing cats… how could he understand them so well?
And… didn't Seraphina have callouses as well from practicing swordsmanship?
These fools!
"Idiots! I know a secret you three don't!" Hunter leaned down and announced, "She's a man-hater! She only likes me!"
Three cats mewled in shock before turning to the crimson-haired woman, their eyes asking for confirmation.
Which Seraphina did give them with a nod and explanation, "I hate men… because they're weak… but I can give it a chance for strong men like you four… uh, you came to me to ask for milk despite me being able to kill you with a flick of my fingers! You're strong cats!"
It was a joke… yet it was said so badly that the cats had their fur lifted up by a chill going down their spine…
…then three of them hid behind Hunter's back, mewling weakly.
"Ah, well, yeah… try to hide your killing intent when you make jokes! Especially with little cats free from Lucifer's curse!" Hunter did his best to hide his laughter while explaining the cause of Seraphina's failure.
Her cheeks lit up a little, and she awkwardly looked away, "Ok."
At last, Aimee left the house, closed the door, and looked at the two, "Time to for the last practice before a mission."
