Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

[Eon’s POV: ]

“Sleeping is so fun for some reason…” Rein mumbled under her breath as she played with my hair. Her eyes were closed, but she was undoubtedly awake right now.

“You should be sleeping then, my lady. Why are you still up?” Tucking the hair covering her ear behind, I give her a small kiss.

“Mmm…” The kiss was pretty effective as it spread a sweet smile across her face.

She seemed so pretty right now, haaaa. There’s so much we could be doing right now and yet, here we were, simply laying in the bed together, simply sleeping without doing anything.

It pains me sometimes. I question why we have to be restricted, why we have to care about anything at all to share love with one another.

Holding back is always more difficult for her and yet she does it for me. I just don’t like how she has to do such things just because of me.

“You should be sleeping right now as well. Was what we were doing the whole evening not enough?” she opened her eyes when she said that. Her shining, smirking eyes were pretty and seeing them was delightful as well.

She’s so pretty… How many times have I said this already?

Ughhh. Something’s definitely happening to me.

“You do a lot of things to me, you know?” caressing her cheeks made me want more of what we have already done.

It wasn’t enough, but we can do what we could at least. Seeing her all aroused was always fun anyways.

“I know… of course I know. That’s why I do it, don’t you think? Besides, do you know how many things you do to me-. Oh of course you know, you damned human.”

She knew what I was trying to do right now: first some sweet talk, followed by some not-so-appropriate talk, and before she knew it… she would be sleeping.

It was like magic. Every time we followed a certain kind of dialogue course, she would get tired naturally.

Over the years, I’ve learned this pretty well and I’ve pretty much weaponised this to be used to my advantage.

“You want me to sleep so you can work by yourself again, don’t you?”

At first, it used to be pretty easy. She wouldn’t suspect anything and just think that she fell asleep on her own while we were talking and I took care of her.

But, she quickly figured out it wasn’t so simple.

Call it hypnosis or whatever you want, but this special method to put her to sleep was something that only worked when I was the one doing it.

‘I’ve done my research so I know how effective it becomes against her when I’m allowed.’

She still doesn’t know everything about it, but she surely knows how I’ve made her conditioned to a few things to how she tends to do certain things in the presence of certain stimuli.

‘It’s kind of fun, but then again, she’s not that easy of a target.’

She’s sharp and knows when and what you’re doing to her. With her improved eyes, she even knows when I’m trying to do something she doesn’t want.

“Hmph. You’re being arrogant if you think it’ll work every time. Even I know it’s not going to work so easily.”

The combination of physical touches and voice tones, the vibrations produced at these moments to the certain, calm environment that we create.

It’s a pretty difficult process, but if it means helping her go to sleep peacefully, I don’t mind doing it.

I’d sleep more if I could as well, but with this body that doesn’t get tired easily and all these energies filling up inside of me, it’s pretty difficult for me to fall asleep.

“If you want to work, just tell me. What is this, darling? You know I don’t like this.” She was going to turn her head to the other side now, I knew that much so before she could, I grabbed her face with my hands.

“Would you sleep if you knew I was the only one working?” It was a rhetorical question.

We both knew she would just stay awake the whole time while I was working and she also knew whenever I was doing something like this, it would mean I was going to be working late by myself.

There were many things that I did on my own, but I do tell her about it later so she doesn’t ask me much when I don’t tell her myself.

“I still don’t like it, mmm…” she was speaking a little too much so I just kissed her. She thought a lot of unnecessary things all the time.

She already knew I wasn’t doing this for myself or because I preferred it. I did not like forcing her to do anything unless necessary.

Even doing these manipulative things was something I didn’t resort to too much. She was someone I cared deeply about, so she deserved her freedom.

But then, there were times when we needed restrictions… restrictions beyond the incentives of Our coins.

“I’ll be working late, and you’re tired after all that we did today, right? You should go have some sleep. I’ll join you back as soon as I’m done.”

There were some people causing trouble around the world and things that I could not keep a track of during the time we were away to the forbidden area.

The fact that the first prince had entered that forest was being kept a top secret right now aside from his top score.

***

Elio’s mom was a simple person.

They had a big house but they did not have that many servants since she liked working and doing most of the things by herself.

There surely were people around to keep things in place, but most of them had been a part of this house for over a decade now.

They were no less than a family to the people that lived here. They were special and so were their roles.

“You all seem tired. Will you be resting or shall we make something to eat together?”

She might not be as good at cooking as the two young girls she was sitting with, but there were a few things that she simply made better than anyone else here.

There were things that she simply had mastered. There was no one in this house, perhaps in this entire neighborhood that could match her when it came to those things.

And one of those things, one of those simple yet essential things was Coffee.

“I think we should have dinner and then rest instead of waiting for now or waking up later on.”

“Right~? We can go for a walk after we eat as well~.”

They were tired already but they knew as long as they were in this house, they didn’t have any choice but to do as his mom said.

They could not possibly say no to most of the things that she said, and anything related to exercise was one of them.

“Sure…”

“We don’t have any choice anyway-.”

“Oh~. Would you look at the time~. It seems like I’ll have to go back now. I had this thing to do-.”

“Do you really think that works, Olive dear?”

Olive was here right now, and she had just heard what his mom said. There was no way she was skipping this anymore.

“There are things that one should not skip. Walking, exercising and reading are one of those things.”

In her prime, she was a renowned archer. But then she met someone that changed her life in many ways..

“Oh. Are we going to make something? Should I bring some fresh things?”

Elio’s father. The man whose Green eyes Elio and his sister had inherited.

He was someone of high position, someone who dealt with people, products, and things related to the industries and organizations on daily bases.

He was a busy person that had given his all to support his family.

Elio had learned hard work from him, he had obtained his tenacity, and at the same time, he had his mother’s stubbornness.

“Oh, that wouldn’t be necessary, dear. I already asked uncle Liem to bring groceries.”

He had learned a lot of things from these two, however, there was still one thing that he had still not completely understood… a topic that was so simple at the first glance that it seemed minuscule, and yet was so important that even after being with Alex for all these years, he had not really understood it…

“Alright then. I’ll be reading by myself. Or is there anyone who wants to join me?”

“Oh! Oh! Can I come with you uncle Fin?”

Be it Olive or someone else in their house, they all looked up to this simple looking person who was wearing a simple t-shirt with no shoes.

He was like Alex when it came to fashion, but unlike her minimalist nature, he simply didn’t have to care about his attire when he was in his personal space.

“Olive? Won’t you help us? We are going to make cookies as well so…”

“Hmm? Why are you making cookies at night?”

“For night snacks?”

“…weren’t you going to sleep? Why do you want snacks?”

“Of course we are going to sleep today, dummy. These will be for tomorrow.”

“You want to make cookies for tomorrow…?”

Olive couldn’t understand what Alex was saying or why she wanted to do something so strange.

There was no need to make cookie dough a night before if they weren’t going to use it anyway. Keeping it will overnight won’t really be effective.
