Power stones☺�☺�☺�☺�

As she conversed with Orcus, Anne struggled to find a way to continue the discussion, but she didn't have to worry as Orcus responded with gratitude to her compliment.
"Th-Thank you for your compliment, though you also fought marvellously. I was one of the top warriors among my people, at least according to them, and my confidence didn't allow me to believe I could be bested. Yet here I am, speaking to the one who did."
He acknowledged her prowess in battle and confessed that he was considered one of the top warriors among his people, which had given him the confidence to believe that he couldn't be bested. However, his defeat at her hands proved otherwise.
The conversation had taken a pleasant turn, and Anne felt a sense of comfort in speaking to Orcus. She wondered if it was because of their shared experience in battle that they had managed to find some common ground.
Anne believed that through fighting, one could even gain insight into their opponent's character and motivations. Despite feeling defeated, Anne found that her encounter with Orcus was insightful and interesting.
Orcus had an unusual feeling of wanting to spend more time with Anne and get to know her better, beyond the bounds of just this night.
He knew that he was craving something from within him, which was his desire to become closer to other people and satisfy his Sin.
Despite being an incubus, Orcus had never been promiscuous and had always maintained his purity, which was a rare feat for demons like him.
However, he felt that he was ready to take the next step, especially with someone like Anne, whom he found intriguing.
Orcus believed that the fight had allowed him to understand Anne better, which was why he was so drawn to her.
It was unusual for demons like him to connect with others on an emotional level, but he felt that there was something about Anne that made him want to be closer to her.
He couldn't explain it, but he felt that spending more time with her would help him discover what it was that drew him to her.
However, Orcus knew that his desire to get to know Anne better would not be an easy feat, especially given that they came from vastly different worlds.
Nevertheless, he was willing to take the risk, as he had the impression that Anne was different from any other opponent he had ever faced.
Anne was taken aback by Orcus's statement that he believed in getting to know someone through fighting.
However, she was pleasantly surprised by his response that he could understand her through their fight.
She thought to herself that it was a unique way of knowing someone, but there were surely other ways to get to know someone as well.
She felt grateful that Orcus was taking the initiative in the conversation, as she had put herself in an awkward position earlier. Anne responded, "I agree with you that a duel can be an interesting way to get to know someone, but I believe there are many other ways to do so."
Orcus nodded thoughtfully. "I can see your point. What are some of the ways that you believe we can get to know each other better?" he asked, genuinely interested in what she had to say.
Anne paused for a moment to gather her thoughts. "Well, I believe that spending time together in non-combat situations can help us understand each other better. For example, we could have a conversation over a meal, or we could go for a walk and talk about our interests and hobbies. Or perhaps we could attend a cultural event together, like a concert or a play. What do you think?" she suggested.
Orcus smiled. "Those are all excellent suggestions. I would love to spend more time getting to know you in those ways," he replied.
Orcus couldn't help but notice Anne's beauty as they continued to talk, feeling drawn to her more and more with each passing moment.
Despite this strong desire, he tried his best to maintain his composure and keep his impulses in check, reminding himself of his vow to make any sexual encounter meaningful and worthwhile for both parties involved.
To distract himself, Orcus offered Anne a drink, but only those that would not impair his senses or cloud his judgment. He wasn't a fan of strong alcoholic beverages, preferring to stay clear-headed and alert at all times.
"May I offer you something to drink?" he asked Anne politely, gesturing towards the assortment of non-alcoholic beverages he had available. "I don't partake in many spirits, as I find them too intoxicating." He wanted to make sure he remained in control of his actions and to prevent anyone else from becoming vulnerable to harm or exploitation, especially Asmodea, who tended to drink heavily.
Orcus hoped that his actions would demonstrate his responsible nature and prove to Anne that he was a reliable and trustworthy person.
Despite his desire for her, he didn't want to take advantage of her or make her uncomfortable in any way.
He simply wanted to get to know her better and establish a meaningful connection that would satisfy both of their desires in a respectful and dignified manner.
Anne expressed her willingness to try any kind of drink, regardless of its strength or taste. The Sands of Sloth, where she worked, didn't offer many options in terms of beverages.
Orcus, on the other hand, was known for his selective approach to drinking, and he usually avoided strong spirits that could cloud his perception of reality. This was partly due to his responsibilities towards Asmodea, whom he needed to keep safe and sound.
