Chapter 775: Dragon Blood Enhancement Ritual (V.)
Seeing Roland's embarrassment, Valentina bit her lip and forced a smile, and her hands were not idle, gently and meticulously helping him apply magic essential oils all over her body. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info let out a sigh of relief and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Roland stiffened like a mummy, not daring to move, and stared at the mural in front of the basilica: the nebula shone brightly. However, the Holy Emblem of the Platinum Dragon God could not curb the physiological instinct, this was the first time in his life that he felt embarrassed that his male ** official was too strong, and he wanted to cut it with a knife, saving him from losing face in front of Sister Jinlong.
Valentina wiped the essential oil from her hands and looked up at Roland, her face flushing even thicker: "Next is the most critical part of the ceremony, I need your help to complete it." β
"Sister Valyusha, I'm willing to do anything for you."
Valentina took a deep breath, summoned all her courage, and said to him tremblingly, "So...... Please love me well, right here, right now. β
Roland had already had a premonition, but when he really heard this, he still felt as if there was a thunderbolt in his ears, and he was stunned for a while.
Valentina's demeanor relaxed, the most difficult hurdle to speak had passed, and now she had nothing to fear.
"Roland, you also know in your heart that I am not your ideal partner, race, age, personality, identity, all aspects are not suitable, but I still have to tell you that I like you."
"Sister Valyusha......"
Roland tried to say something to lighten the mood, but the negotiation skills he had always prided himself on were useless in the here and now. Fortunately, Valentina saved him, smiled and waved her hand, signaling him not to interrupt.
"Listen to me, I like you, it's not about you, it's just a kind of female creature when she faces a male who can communicate and has a similar aesthetic concept, it stands to reason that I shouldn't force you to respond to my impulse, because you really don't lack female partners, you have more and better choices, I am not a necessity for you, if you have sex with me out of sympathy or impulse, it may destroy our current friendship, which will do more good than harm to our future cooperation, Especially when there is a conflict of interest. β
Roland wanted to laugh but could only endure it, not knowing what to say about Valentina's remarks. She tried to explain her emotional impulses with logical and clear ideas, and the more rational and restrained she appeared in such a state of mind, the more her inner entanglements and contradictions were exposed.
Valentina was silent for a few seconds, as if adjusting her emotions, and then said to him: "The greatest pain of the higher intelligent beings lies in the contradiction between reason and emotion, frankly speaking, you and I are nothing more than two sides, although there are frequent correspondence during this period, but it is a business talk, there is no personal relationship between children and daughters, I am sure that I like you and appreciate you, but you have to ask me if I love you from the bottom of my heart and desire to marry you, I can't answer, because I can't deceive myself." β
"Sister Valyusha, I'm proud to be your friend, people have to be self-aware, I don't think that my talent or charm can make a mature and wise lady fall in love with the Golden Dragon, this in itself is illogical, I guess your pressure comes from other sources?"
"You're smart, it's not good to be too smart, don't belittle yourself too much, of course you can attract dragons of the opposite sex, if someone denies this, you don't care I'm going to be angry, but I don't allow you to verify this, I'm really going to be jealous!"
Roland didn't know how to respond, so he held her hand hard.
"Forgive me for nagging a few more words, I need to clear my mind in this way, and I also want you to understand my mood and next step." Valentina sighed.
Roland sat side by side on the altar with her, looked at Sister Jinlong's bright eyes, and asked cautiously, "When you are nagging, can I interject?" β
Valentina sneered, and looked at him helplessly and lovingly: "Little fart, don't be so cute, okay!" β
"Frankly, I've met some great males in my long life, including dragons and humans, and I've even had emotions and the idea that 'it would be nice to get along and choose that person as a partner'...... It's a pity that this kind of heartbeat is always instantaneous, and when the mood cools down, I can't get back the original feeling, those who once made my heart move will always make me find imperfections, either stop at friends, or part ways, never like at this moment, holding hands, putting aside all reserve, dissecting their inner world to a person of the opposite sex. β
"I think something must have happened in this, otherwise unless I pursue you stubbornly, our relationship will only stay at the level of sister and brother, and the impulse you once had towards me will also dissipate over time and transform into pure friendship or family affection."
"Will it be like that?"
"It must be so, you are not a naΓ―ve little girl, and I am also self-aware, far from the perfect partner in your mind, at least I am not even a real dragon, racial differences will bring about conflicts of ideas, and the difference in strength between us is too big, I can't understand what kind of realm a legend is, and I don't want to find a lover to be a teacher by the way, and it is inevitable that there will be conflicts over time."
"What you say makes sense, but how can you have such an idea, you are only nineteen years old, your thinking is too precocious, right?" Valentina scrutinized him.
Roland was silent for a long time, and finally spoke: "I have some knowledge, and I don't belong to this world, please forgive me for not saying more, if the actual environment allows me to explain one day, I will be the first to tell you." β
Valentina nodded thoughtfully, "I kind of get it, maybe life is more than a one-way trip for you...... No wonder I've always felt that you have a mysterious temperament, a youthful vigor and a maturity beyond age that exist in you at the same time, and I have to admit that this temperament fascinates me. β
Roland's heartstrings shuddered. Valentina is not another little girl, the knowledge and experience of this legendary golden dragon arcane high priest is beyond his imagination, the experience of the two lives is not worth making a fuss about in her eyes, and it is normal to guess some clues.
"Sister Valyusha, what changed your mind and reluctantly elevated me from a little brother worth cultivating, a like-minded business partner, to the status of a lover?"
"The situation is compelled on the one hand, and of course I can excuse myself by taking into account the overall situation, but the main thing is the calculation of my personal interests."
"Can you elaborate on that?" Roland stared into her eyes and asked softly.
