Cecilia remained silent for a long time before pulling her head out slightly from Zen's chest.

"You don't want to embrace any longer?" Zen asked cheekily and showed a bright smile at Cecilia.

"What? You want to take advantage of this beauty longer?" Cecilia pouted slightly.

However, she didn't push him aside and allowed his hand to remain on her back.

Sometime later, Cecilia took a deep breath as she asked, "Do you want to hear a story of mine?"

Zen was surprised by her attitude. She was always cold and demanding toward him but today, it seemed like regaining a new physical body made her warm and gentle.

Zen embraced her closer and said, "I'm always here to listen to a story of yours."

Cecilia smiled briefly as she nodded her head and began a little story- or more specifically, her childhood.

"There was a time when the prominent Von Henning family patriarch's wife was giving birth to a daughter. It was a massive event where everyone became tense as they witnessed the heir being born…"

"That daughter was none other than I, Cecilia Von Henning. The moment I was born, I was blessed with many talents, and cultivating was as easy as breathing."

"There was no difficulty or challenge at all and I have gotten bored with cultivating without a sense of direction. Hence, there was a day when I witnessed our family alchemist refining a miracle pill that has an unimaginable effect."

Cecilia paused here briefly as she glanced at Zen. 

"It's a bit boring right?" Cecilia then asked him.

Zen smiled and shook his head. "How is something about my woman's life boring? I'm more than eager to know everything about you- especially your childhood and how it made you become the best alchemist I know in my life."

Cecilia pouted and punched his chest slightly. "When did I become your woman? I-I have never agreed nor did any intimate action with you."

"Did you focus so much on storytelling that you forgot your current position?" Zen chuckled softly as he rubbed her back slowly to remind her position.

Cecilia realized her current ambiguous position and her chest was almost in full view for Zen to leer at.

Embarrassed, she quickly tried to struggle off of him to cover herself. 

Alas, it was only a futile attempt since Zen has no intention of letting go of this warmth feeling emitting from her.

"Stop trying to struggle since I have already seen everything so there's no point in trying to cover it at all," Zen smiles cheekily.

"Please continue on with the story… I want to know what happened next." Zen then said.

Cecilia pouted slightly before taking a deep breath to recall where she left off.

"It's the alchemist part that you took an interest in," Zen reminded where she left off with a bit of teasing tone.

Cecilia scoffed slightly before continuing, "After I learned about the miracle that an alchemist can do… I became obsessed with it and started refining pills without rest."

"My father and mother didn't want me to shut my door all the time since I was always closed-door to refine the pills but I didn't want to listen. Soon, I became irritated by their pestering and decided to sneak out of the house and explore outside."

Cecilia's expression turned bitter as she found herself unable to continue when she remembered her immature action that hurt her parent's feelings.

Zen held her hand at this time and said, "Everything is alright now… everyone makes mistakes, including me. You have already learned to become better so those bitter memories should be deleted and replaced with happy memories instead."

Cecilia nodded her head.

Afterward, she continued her story about how she partakes in an alchemist competition without realizing how big the event was.

"I didn't know it was a large-scale alchemist competition but I somehow won the entire thing and soon, I became well-known in the higher world with everyone admiring me."

"However, that was when everything went downhill since multiple empyrean families wished to arrange a marriage, asking for me to marry their son. Of course, I refuse to marry any of them since I have heard rumors about those so-called heirs."

"Because of my impulsive behavior, I have caused my family to become an outcast since I refused to budge an inch and they felt humiliated. Afterward, I explored the cave left by the supreme being and you already know the rest."

When Cecilia finished, she breathed a sigh of relief for finally being able to share her story with someone else and no longer have to keep it hidden in her heart.

Meanwhile, Zen hugged Cecilia as he said, "Those so-called empyreans that tried to force marriage upon you… I promise you that they will have a life worse than death."

"Heh, you're still weak as hell so what can you do to them?" Cecilia smirked as she teased him.

Zen was rendered speechless as he kissed her on the cheek, shocking her deeply for the sudden kiss.

"W-Why did you peck my cheek just now?" Cecilia touched her cheek that had been kissed by him in confusion.

"Because you're really cute right now," Zen replied swiftly before reaching for her lips.

Afterward, he started kissing Cecilia without caring if she was ready or not.

Cecilia had her eyes wide open as she clenched onto his clothes before closing her eyes and allowed his tongue to roam around her.

Sometime later, Cecilia pushed Zen slightly away and said, "T-That's as far as you can go… for now."

"Oh my- our Sovereign and alchemist queen is embarrassed by a kiss?" Zen teased Cecilia and started laughing loudly.

"S-Shut up, you womanizer," Cecilia pouted in anger as she stood up.

Zen followed her movement and got up as well. His eyesight was on her rosy and seductive lips as he tried to lean closer for another round of passionate kisses.

However, Cecilia stopped his movement and said, "N-Not now, Zen. There are more important things you must do besides trying to be intimate with me."

Zen was confused by her meaning. There was nothing more important than getting cozy with Cecilia since this was one in a million chance he would ever get.

He would be a fool to give up his opportunity now to make Cecilia his woman completely.

Cecilia saw through his intention as she smacked his head slightly to prevent his perverted thought from overcoming his rational mind.

"Stop trying to be lustful," Cecilia said as she reminded him about Evie.

She explained how she was suddenly restricted from her movement by Evie despite being in the mysterious space.

She was the boss of this mysterious space that belonged to the supreme being but Evie seemingly pierced through her space without any effort and even managed to transmit her voice here.

Cecilia couldn't imagine anyone being capable of doing such a feat. Thus, she was frightened by Evie's true identity and Evie's cultivation base that is still unknown to her.

She didn't even fear the empyrean that was targeting her but she felt threatened for the first time by someone in a tiny world no less.

"Evie- she seemed to know you fully as she treated you differently," Cecilia suddenly said.

And she continued, "However, I have been with you ever since you were born and I have never felt her aura anywhere on Earth."

Although she was still unconscious at that time, she could still sense the aura that Zen has interacted with and Evie showed no sign of interacting with Zen previously.

Hence, she was confused about why Evie would act so intimately toward Zen, almost like she has been with him before.

Zen also nodded his head as he has been trying to figure out who Evie is.

"Seems like I must solve this mystery today or I might never be able to sleep comfortably." Zen then said as he kissed Cecilia's lip when she was distracted.

Cecilia gave in and allowed him one last passionate kiss before kicking him out of the mysterious space.

Zen didn't resist the force and closed his eyes to leave the mysterious space.

"Seems like the Sacred Pill works fine since your lips seemed to be coated with Cecilia's saliva." 

The moment Zen left the mysterious space and reappeared in Evie's office, he heard the teasing tone already.

"Well, it was the first time I was able to embrace her physically so of course, I will not let that opportunity slip," Zen said and grabbed a chair to sit down.

Afterward, he stared at Evie with a solemn expression. "Although I can never repay you for what you did to help Cecilia… I still wished to know something about you. Just why did you help me and not have me killed the first time you met me?"

And he continued, "I was audacious and even flirted with you. Now that I know how strong you are, you could have easily destroyed me."

Evie remained silent for a moment before asking him, "Do you really want to know the reason?"
