The Golden Lord has a perverted SSS-rank summoning system!-Chapter 42: I don’t want to put you in danger

Wiping her face and breasts with a handkerchief, Alice turned her back to Ethan and sat on his lap, his cock immediately finding its way into the tightness of her soft thighs.

During the time she had been absorbing the mana core, her mind had been in a trance, so, to her, it seemed like only a few minutes had passed.

Even so, she was already dying of longing for Ethan.

"Don’t you think you should take a shower first?" Ethan asked, hugging her from behind and gripping her huge, pale milk jugs tightly.

Alice looked confused at first, but then sniffed herself, her face distorting.

"H-how long did it take me to absorb the mana core?" She asked with a trembling voice, jumping off his lap in embarrassment.

"Hm... about eight days." Ethan answered honestly, watching her expression change.

Eight days without a shower.

For a woman like her, who washed religiously every day and loved always being clean, this brought deep terror.

With a flushed face, she ran towards the bathroom, thanking the gods that there was water ready there.

With a sigh, Ethan followed her, his clothes falling to the floor.

"I’m going to wash your back." He said, picking up a jug of water and pouring it over her body, his hands tracing Alice’s perfect curves, his fingers gliding over the creamy, milky skin.

As they both showered, he glanced at her status screen, his face lit up with an intense glow.

[Alice

Age: 22

Level: 32/60

Class: Mage

Talent: S

Opinion of you: 100

Loyalty: 100%]

She had gained five whole levels with a single mana core, not to mention her mana reserves, which had certainly increased a lot too.

"How did it go?" Ethan asked, since he couldn’t check her complete status.

"Well... I’m stronger and my mana reserves have almost doubled." Alice whispered, her back to him.

Raising a finger, she created a small fireball, hot and powerful, despite its size.

"Hm... efficiency has improved a lot too." Ethan’s lips curved and he gently patted her ass.

After he washed her back, it was Alice’s turn to wash his. Clean, they both left the bathroom.

She had regained her sweet floral fragrance, her golden hair neatly combed into a ponytail.

Clinging to Ethan’s side, she pulled his arm into the valley formed by her ample cleavage, her huge tits engulfing it in a tight, warm and soft embrace.

Together, they decided to take a walk around the settlement, and Alice’s face was soon filled with surprise.

Not much had changed since the day she left, except for two things.

The guard barracks on the horizon were much larger than before and their decaying appearance had completely disappeared, with the training area expanded considerably.

But that wasn’t all.

The population of the settlement had almost doubled, reaching one hundred and seventeen people after the last wave of new arrivals.

The number of abandoned houses had also fallen considerably. Of the ninety-seven houses in Goldenveil, forty-two were now occupied.

There were still many empty houses, but that would soon change. It wouldn’t be long before the settlement had to be expanded, but Ethan was in no hurry.

As they walked side by side, many excited eyes fell on the young couple.

Although nothing official had been made, everyone knew that Alice slept in the same room as Ethan and that, while she meditated, their lord also slept with Evelyn.

A gentle Lord, who had brought prosperity to the settlement and was working tirelessly to give them a young heir.

Normally, a Lord having relations with two women he wasn’t even married to could be considered indecent, but the people of Goldenveil didn’t think much of it.

All they did was pray that the goddess of fertility would bless them with many strong and healthy heirs.

Alice blushed at those looks and clung to Ethan a little tighter.

"It’s two weeks until you go and attack the goblin camp, isn’t it?" Alice asked as they walked away from the center of the settlement. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

They sat on the soft grass beneath an apple tree, a few meters from the lord’s mansion.

Ethan reached out, picked an apple and handed it to Alice, whose only meal, after eight days without food, had been his cum.

Naturally, she needed something more substantial.

"Yes, we’re leaving in two weeks. I’ve already spoken to Alaric to prepare the necessary supplies." He replied as she took excited bites of her apple.

"You’re not going to let me accompany you..." Alice exhaled against the fruit, her heart heavy.

It sounded like a question, but it was a statement.

"I don’t want to put you in danger." Ethan sighed before continuing. "You’re strong, but you’re a mage without any defensive spells... what if a goblin gets too close to you and I can’t get there in time?"

That was the truth.

If Alice were a third-stage mage, she would already be able to protect her own body with mana barriers, and even without protective spells, she would have enough brute strength to crush any warrior below level two who got close.

But in the current situation, with her at stage two and only twelve of them facing one hundred and fifty goblins...

He didn’t want to take her. Not at all.

"Someone also needs to stay to protect this place while I’m gone, right? It’s only a hundred and fifty goblins, if we ambush them properly, we can deal with them easily." He said it confidently, words that didn’t help ease the weight on her chest.

In the end, Alice didn’t want to get in Ethan’s way.

Even if her fireballs and healing abilities were useful, by being there she would end up dividing his attention.

On a battlefield, divided attention often meant death.

Although she was unhappy with his decision, she didn’t let herself get down.

Among her mother’s books, there were many on magic and spells.

There must have been at least one defensive spell among them, right?

Slowly, she turned towards him, and their lips met in a long, passionate kiss. "I’m going to train hard, to be useful to you."
