Chapter 99: The Coming Adventure
Chapter 99: The Coming AdventureSteve remained motionless, the dim light from the corner lamp casting shadows across the contours of his face as his thoughts swirled like a restless storm.
’She walked in willingly.’
His gaze drifted to the closed door, as if the memory of her entrance had somehow etched itself onto the very wood.
’No active spells. No illusions. No binding enchantments. Charm Master had already been used, and it wasn’t like it had a lingering effect... right?’ He clenched his jaw, the thought refusing to leave him alone.
"So why?"
Why had Dina—Dina of all people—walked into his room and offered herself to him? She hadn’t come to argue or train or test his limits. She had come to him. Voluntarily.
’Could it be that... she already loves me?’ he whispered inwardly.
It was a bold thought. Maybe foolish. But also—possible.
Charm Master was never meant to induce love. It manipulated attraction, yes, but love? That was far beyond its limited scope. So why did it feel like there was something real growing between them?
He stood up slowly and leaned towards her. She looked up as he approached, eyes flickering with remnants of desire. Her lips parted slightly, as if to say something, but nothing came out.
Steve dropped to his knees in front of her.

The boy, the outsider, the nobody—he was starting to make a name for himself.
But he didn’t care about the gossip.
He cared about the next training.
Although sometimes, between the grind, he indulged himself.
MILFs were everywhere, after all.
He smiled to himself, stretching as the morning sun broke across the horizon. His body ached. His mana was low. But his heart?
His heart was burning.
And this was just the beginning....but in due time, his success came.
