Chapter 35

After Hiro announced it, silence reigned between them. Even though Liberty has no idea where he came from, the word ‘murder’ attached to the name of a relative certainly sounds dark,

“Yuujin, did someone really try to kill you?”

Meanwhile, Hiro was conflicted, and his mind was in chaos. He could not believe it, he refused to believe it. However, no matter how hard he tried to deny it, the evidence points to the fact that the murder of his sibling really did happen.

He saw how Yuujin became such a frightening, saddening presence in his dream. It was so scary that even his skin prickled at the thought. That dream was scary enough to carve itself as a trauma in his mind.

His body trembled, and cold sweat ran down all over his face and body. His eyes were as wide as saucers, but there was no spark of light in his eyes.

Liberty could not do anything except hug him and try to soothe him in a warm hug.

“Hiro, what happened? Are you okay?”

Hiro snapped out of it and heard the question, but he gave no answer. He was clamping on his bottom lip while trembling. It was clear that he was shaken.

Once again, he imagined someone out there, walking freely with no care in the world even after doing something as heinous as murdering Yuujin. There was no way Hiro could stay silent and accept it.

There was no proof, but this nightmare felt more like a sign.

“Yuujin…” Hiro spoke softly, as if he had lost control of his own voice.

Liberty lifted Hiro’s face and tried to check out his condition. However, all Liberty could see was Hiro’s despondent gaze. His lips kept muttering the name ‘Yuujin’ in despair.

“Hey, Hiro, I cannot say I understand what happened to you, but I am here for you. You can tell me anything you want, okay?”

Hiro stared at Liberty’s beautiful ocean eyes for a moment, and his lips stopped trembling.

“Libe?”

Seeing that Hiro had come to his senses, Liberty flashed him a sweet smile. The problem hasn’t been solved yet, but at least Hiro realized that he was not alone.

“Hiro, look at me. I am here for you.”

Liberty was close, so close, so that he could bask in her perfection. When she smiled, Hiro felt as if he had won the lottery twice a day.

“I am here.”

All of a sudden, Liberty touched the back of his head and kissed him with her plump, pink lips.

A heated dance occured between them. She hoped that a warm touch would help soothe his pain.

Hiro’s eyes shot open in shock, but he did not budge. Hiro had never kissed a girl before, especially one as beautiful as Liberty. In reflex, he pulled on her nightgown and dragged her closer.

Everything felt like a dream, while the previous one was a nightmare, this one was a truly fantastic dream.

Comfort wrapped all over his body in a warm embrace, and he could feel butterflies all over his stomach.

The sudden, tender, and loving kiss from Liberty pulled Hiro back to his senses, and now he has sort of regained his footing. The terror of the nightmare has been dispelled, all disappearing under Liberty’s beautiful face.

A red blush made her look even more radiant, and she sighed in contentment with closed eyes.

“So warm… ” Hiro thought. He was getting calmer and calmer.

After a few moments, Liberty separated herself from Hiro. With half-lidded eyes, she met Hiro’s sharp gaze and smiled. She was truly beautiful, like an angel descended from up above.

Hiro’s brain couldn’t work like normal. It was instantly frozen because of a surprised kiss from the beautiful figure in front of him.

He blinked many times because he still could not believe that was even real.

It felt like he was just daydreaming.

‘Did this beautiful princess just kiss me?’

Hiro’s fingers moved to his own lips, trying to feel the traces of a kiss from Liberty’s lips which were soft and warm. His face had turned red like a ripe tomato. It was the first kiss for Hiro. And he never expected that his first kiss would be stolen by a beautiful girl like this.

He didn’t regret it a bit. I mean, why should he regret it? He just won a kiss from Liberty!

Even though Hiro got a meaningful kiss in the virtual world, the high-quality sensitivity level in the VRMMORPG of Last Shelter Online felt real because every single touch the player got in the game would directly send virtual signals that are transmitted to the nerves of his brain.

So every kind of touch he got felt real.

Seeing Hiro’s reaction and his face still stunned from the kiss she gave, Liberty couldn’t help but chuckle in amusement.

She was very adorable.

Hiro had regained his senses and looked at Liberty in front of him.

The girl’s face had turned bright red. The surprising kiss that had just happened suddenly turned out to also make her blush.

That unforgettable moment made Liberty’s pretty face look even more like a beautiful living doll.

Hiro moved his hands to touch Liberty’s face. His action surprised Liberty a bit, but the girl placed her palms on the back of Hiro’s hands that were touching her cheeks.

“It’s so warm,” said Hiro, reflexively giving a comment. He could feel his heartbeat speeding up until he could hear the heartbeat through his own ears.

While Hiro was grabbing her face with his bare hands, Liberty suddenly closed her beautiful eyes. And her pink-plump lips curved into a smile. Very sweet one.

Hiro was suddenly addicted to that smile.

‘She really is a princess.’

Hiro pulled Liberty’s face closer due to the overwhelming urge in his heart.

Liberty had kissed him first, so it wouldn’t be wrong if he returned the kiss with a second one, right?

As the girl’s face got very close to his, Hiro could feel Liberty holding her breath.

‘Is she as nervous as I am?’

Realizing this only made Hiro even more furious and his heart raced. It was like his heart would jump out of his body pretty soon.

The scent of lavender in the room and the sweet scent of Liberty’s natural smell, both blended and kept inviting him.

“You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen, Libe.”

“Eh—?” Liberty reflexively opened her eyes when she heard Hiro’s praise in a whisper. ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣o𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

Just as the girl opened her beautiful eyes, Hiro pulled Liberty’s face and kissed her gently.

And now, Liberty was the one who received a surprising kiss.
