Chapter 45 — Rank 2: Adept Mage, R18 ( Part 3 )
Ren lowered his hand.
There was an important distinction between destructive power and the size of an attack.
A spell didn't need to destroy a huge area to be powerful.
There were single-target spells designed to concentrate enormous amounts of power on one opponent, while large-scale destruction spells spread that power across a massive area.
Most Rank 2 mages possessed enough power to destroy a mountain if they used a sufficiently powerful large-area spell.
Rank 3 mages stood on an entirely different level. Their large-area spells possessed enough destructive power to raze a large town or even a small city.
The problem was the mana cost.
Such spells consumed an absurd amount of mana.
A normal mage might only be able to use one or two before becoming exhausted.
That was why mages generally relied on smaller, single-target spells during actual combat.
Ren was different.
His mana regeneration was so absurd that he could continuously recover the mana required for such spells.
And with his SSS-grade Magic Talent, he could stack hundreds of lower-rank spell formations together.
That allowed him to reproduce the destructive power normally associated with higher-ranked mages.
Lyra looked at him with undisguised admiration.
"You have become so strong, Sir Hero Ren."
Ren smiled.
"Of course."
He pulled her firmly against his chest and leaned down, capturing her lips in a deep, wet kiss. Their tongues tangled passionately while his hand slid down, greedily cupping and fondling her large, firm backside through her robes. He completely ignored the apocalyptic smoking crater and the towering mushroom cloud dissipating in the sky behind them.
A short while later, he broke the kiss, grabbed her waist, and used Blink to teleport them back inside the Adventurers Guild branch.
When they returned to the adventurer's guild, the receptionist was still at his counter.
Ren approached him.
"We completed the mission."
The receptionist froze.
He looked at Ren.
Then at Lyra.
Then back at Ren.
"...What?"
"We completed the mission."
"But you only left a few minutes ago."
"Yeah."
The receptionist stared at him in disbelief.
He couldn't understand how someone could travel to the mission location, kill a giant monster of that size, and return in such a short amount of time.
Still, the guild had its procedures.
The receptionist checked the mission details and accepted the proof of completion.
After confirming everything, he marked the mission as completed and handed Ren his reward.
Ren accepted it and stored it inside his Storage Mark.
There was no reason to stay any longer.
He took Lyra's hand.
Blink.
They disappeared from the guild.
After teleporting outside the town, Ren summoned his magical carriage.
They climbed inside and continued traveling.
A few hours later, they stopped at another town.
They ate at a restaurant before finding a comfortable inn for the night.
That night, Ren and Lyra lay together in bed.
Stripped of their clothes, both lay completely naked in each other's warm embrace. Ren pulled her close against his chest.
"Ahhh-!" Lyra gasped loudly, a sharp moan escaping her lips as she felt two of his thick fingers press directly against her tight, unlubricated rear entrance.
Without hesitation, Ren pushed them firmly inside, driving his fingers all the way to the base and overriding the immediate, tight resistance of her backdoor. He held them buried deep inside her, letting her body stretch around his grip.
"S-Sir Hero Ren?" she panted softly, looking back at him in confusion, as they usually reserved their physical intimacy for the morning hours.
Ren leaned forward, capturing her lips in another deep, tongue-tangling kiss. When he finally pulled back, his eyes gleamed with calm dominance.
"I need your asshole to get used to my fingers, Lyra."
Lyra flushed, resting her head against his chest as she felt the full depth of his intrusion. "That's fine... honestly, I feel like my rear is far too sensitive as it is, and I want to be able to please you properly."
She relaxed her muscles, adjusting to the intense, filling sensation of his two fingers stretching her tight ring. At first, the novel sensation and lingering arousal kept her mind racing, preventing her from drifting off. Reaching out with her magic, Lyra softly cast a light sleep spell on herself, feeling a soothing warmth wash over her brain as her eyelids grew heavy.
Ren smiled, wrapping his free arm around her waist as he pulled her flush against his body. He closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep as well, leaving his fingers buried deep inside her snug warmth throughout the entire night.
