CRIMSON OVERLORD - Season 2 Episode 93

Awakening 2

Night fell.

The last radiance of the sun vanished underneath the horizon, only to be replaced by the darkness that enfolded the world inside the ruin. The clouds drifting in the air were also smeared in a dark hue. Lily went to sleep alone in her special tent. Orpheus was sleeping in his tent as well, the same for Illya and Hellion. Deep in the middle of her sleep, Lily found herself in a situation like a spectator watching a play. A woman and a man seemingly on a date.

Since she was always casual with her dress and appearance, he now felt that her beauty was even more spellbinding when she cared about her appearance.

He was sure that if he walked outside now with her arms tucked in his, it would surely carry away the breath of both men and women of any age. She gave off the feeling that no men were worthy enough to lay eyes upon her. But he knew that no matter who or what she was, whether he was worthy or not, he would never let go of her.
“You are so beautiful Emea.”
The woman felt over the moon hearing his loving and sweet compliment. Her eyebrows which seemed as if they were brushed on a canvas, raised as her eyes smiled in happiness. She hugged him intimately and felt how warm his chest was. A strange feeling of absolute safety and warmth always filled her body whenever she was in his embrace.
The first time she felt this was when she asked to let him sleep with her for the first time, and since then, strangely, she couldn’t sleep without him.
Her attachment to him developed at an abnormal speed, and it increased even more, especially after seeing he didn’t back down knowing who she was. No matter how short or long the time she spent with him, she felt as if she had been with him for years, and a strange void in her heart would always be filled whenever he was near her. She wouldn’t feel complete without him, and his existence gave meaning to her life. The black-haired man kissed the woman’s forehead and smiled as he pointed towards one of the chairs put out near the table he had prepared, “Now, let’s take a seat and have dinner. I have something special to give you. Otherwise, this dinner wouldn’t be special:’ Her eyes sparkled, hearing that the man wanted to give her a gift. She happily nodded and quickly took a seat and looked at him in anticipation of what he was going to give her.
She turned her head when the delectable aroma of the food he prepared wafted through her nose. It was something she loved. Mushroom soup, bitter greens with tomatoes the size of peas, rare roast beef slices as thin as paper, noodles in a green sauce, cheese that melts on one’s tongue served with sweet blue grapes. The vivid colors of the food spoke to its freshness and the bold flavors to come and she knew she was going to enjoy it. Moving her eyes around the woman was greatly impressed with how warm and beautiful the garden looked now with all the string lights and candles, highlighting the beautiful flowers and plants even more.
The man sat opposite her and asked with a charming smile, it seems like you love what I have done with the place:’ Upon hearing his words she gave a bright smile as she said, ‘Yes. It looks so beautiful, especially with the surrounding view. I feel very fresh and happy sitting here and having dinner like this. This is way better than going to those luxurious restaurants:’ The two happily ate their food while lovingly gazing into each other’s eyes, while at times they would look at the scenic view outside and enjoy it. However, the woman couldn’t stop wondering what the man was going to give her, especially her first gift from him. He finished his meal, and after drinking some wine, he asked her, “You are curious about why I have set up all of this right?” Naturally, the woman nodded, saying she was not curious would be an understatement, so she was waiting for him to tell her everything and the man knew this. He stood up and gestured towards him to take his hand. The woman slowly got up and placed her hand on his palm while maintaining her gaze on his eyes. He pulled her towards the balustrade while facing the full moon, hanging up in the skies right above the waterfall. As he gazed at the beautiful view in front of him, he asked her, You remember asking me about love, right? You now know how to love someone, but still, there is more to it that you don’t know yet. Love is not just about living together but a promise we fulfill for the rest of our lives, even after our deaths! He looked into her eyes, “And want us to make this promise by marrying each other” An exquisite ring with two pear-shaped diamonds placed on either side of a brilliant cushion-cut white floated from above and hovered before the woman’s eyes against the backdrop of the full
