Chapter 257 Gift
"Goddess!" Ciel called out to the woman in a high tone.
"What?" The woman answered, but she was still the same, continuing to face the window.
"You're asking me to do something, but you're not even looking at me, don't you know what politeness is?" said Ciel.
He needed to ask for an explanation on this matter.
"I'm too lazy to look at a brat like you," replied the Ice Goddess.
Her answer made Ciel's face freeze, thinking that she was too harsh.
Only, he also thought that she was cute when she said those words.
This was because her tone of voice sounded like she was sulking.
After a pause, Ciel said, "I won't help you unless you give me a kiss on the lips after I complete your request."
Ice Goddess, "..."
Instantly, the woman finally turned towards Ciel.
Her eyes were cold but there was redness on her cheeks and neck.
"Ehhmm, are you embarrassed, Goddess?" asked Ciel, grabbing her delicate and soft wrist.
"What are you doing?" The woman tried to pull her hand away, even with her strength, but she found that the strength she used was not enough. It was too little, just enough if Ciel only a weak Demigod.
Ciel looked at the woman's face and said, "You are too beautiful for a woman, Goddess. The world would weep for all men if no one could have you."
When those words came out of Ciel's mouth, it became seemingly like a poem.
The Ice Goddess' breathing quickened when she heard that. Ciel could even feel her breath, warm and very fragrant.
In fact, a drop of air coming out of her nose was enough to make a person who was about to die from asphyxiation come back to life for up to a thousand years.
She was indeed that amazing and special.
Now, she seemed to be speechless.
However, Ciel also did not continue to force strange things on her.
He let go of her hand, and even took a step back so that she could calm herself down.
"So, what do you think, Goddess?"
"What?" The woman apparently asked back.
It was unknown whether she had completely forgotten or did not understand what Ciel meant. Probably both.
"I won't do anything for free. When I managed to get the Sword God to not interfere, you naturally had to give me a reward. And what I want is a kiss from you." Ciel explained, not bothering to say many words just so that the woman would understand what he meant.
This time, the Ice Goddess rolled her eyes and replied, "why are you asking for such nonsense? Who do you think I am?"
"I already think of you as my lover, so it's only natural that I ask for this," Ciel replied calmly so the Ice Goddess blushed again with her breathing once again becoming rapid.
"Who is your lover?" she said.
"We are destined. I'm sure you'll agree, you're just shy."
Ice Goddess, "..."
"You think I would agree to give you such a stupid gift?" The woman became angry.
"If you don't agree, I won't do what you ask either." Ciel shrugged his shoulders, showing her that he could not force him to perform a task.
Ciel did not wait for her to continue speaking. He walked to the woman's throne and sat on it with his legs crossed.
The Ice Goddess' gaze did not hide her annoyance. If a gaze could kill, Ciel had already died a thousand times in this split second.
Fire and ice did not seem to be able to become one.
Ciel wasn't the least bit worried by her gaze. He sat back and waited for her answer.
Actually, this would be a confirmation of whether or not the Ice Goddess agreed to be his lover. After all, if she agreed to the gift he asked for, it meant she agreed to kiss him. A woman like the Ice Goddess would not kiss a man unless she recognized him as her lover.
Unfortunately, Ciel did not have the confidence she would answer. Right now, she still continued to stare at him with her beautiful cold eyes.
Her thoughts could not be guessed at all because of her expression.
"Don't worry, Goddess. I have the patience if it is to wait for your answer," Ciel said with a soft chuckle before resting his head in his own hands.
Much to his surprise, the Ice Goddess suddenly spoke right after that.
"I will give you that gift when you become a Supreme God," she said.
Hearing her words, Ciel immediately stood up, looking at the woman in disbelief.
She really did agree.
Although she had indeed that it was only given to him after he became a Supreme God, the fact that she agreed was enough for Ciel.
Others would be more shocked if they heard that.
The redness on the Ice Goddess' cheeks and neck increased drastically due to Ciel's gaze.
"Hurry up and leave!" she said coldly.
After that, she went to her own room. It looked like she wanted to avoid Ciel.
Ciel smiled faintly then stepped into the palace door with a completely exaggerated smile.
He happened to bump into Mu Yixue.
The woman couldn't help but be confused when she saw Ciel's smile.
She was certain that she had never seen such a smile from Ciel.
Had he just been possessed by a demon?
Mu Yixue wondered.
"What makes you so happy?" she asked Ciel.
"You might need to ask the Goddess," Ciel replied, not breaking his stride.
He headed to the Teleportation Formation.
This made Mu Yixue even more curious so she continued to stare at Ciel until he disappeared from her sight.
After that, she entered the palace, a little confused at not finding the Ice Goddess in the hall.
She came because she had indeed been summoned by the Ice Goddess.
Of course, unlike Ciel, she did not dare to summon the Ice Goddess within her palace.
That could make her die before she even realized.
She continued to wait. She guessed the Ice Goddess was in her room, so she waited for her to come out no matter how long it took.
Fortunately, the Ice Goddess came out of her room not long after.
Only, there was something a little strange. The woman seemed to have just finished bathing. Her hair was wet and she was wearing a rather loose, plain white dress.
When Mu Yixue observed her face, she found as if there was a certain tiredness.
There was sweat mixed amongst the water on her forehead.
This was not a certain tiredness like being mind-weary or physically tired, but more like being tired because a certain burden had disappeared.
Mu Yixue could not guess, but she would be like that when she was in high desire and then released her desire with her hands.
However, she did not dare to speculate that the Ice Goddess did that.
She didn't even believe it because it didn't seem possible at all.
The Ice Goddess was too holy for dirty things.
Perhaps it was just because she felt relieved after worrying for too long.
And there was no way she would dare to ask. She also didn't dare to ask about Ciel because she was sure everything was related to each other.
"Master!" Mu Yixue greeted the Ice Goddess politely.
The Goddess' eyes looked at her and then at her.
Ciel didn't know anything else about what happened in the Ice Palace.
He had finally arrived at the Jian Clan's territory, in a very short time.
Despite the commotion in the Realm of Life, the Jian Clan remained calm, giving the impression of being completely untouched.
The people also seemed unconcerned. They had absolute confidence that any conflict would not reach their territory as long as the Sword God existed.
When arriving in front of the Jian Clan's gate, Ciel was immediately greeted by Jian Wuxin who immediately came out since she sensed his presence.
The woman was as usual, wearing a kimono dress, but this time it was slightly different. The kimono dress she wore was not a long kimono, but a short one, reaching only half of her thighs.
It was also pink in color, instead of the usual black or white, having embroidery of various flowers.
Although she was still a cold and calm woman, Ciel felt a different aura from her.
It was unknown if she was just relaxing because she was living in her own house or if she was in a good mood these days.
Although it had not been long since they last met, Ciel still felt she had become more beautiful.
"Did you miss me?" Ciel asked her.
When he arrived in front of her, he hugged her.
Jian Wuxin pressed her lips together and didn't mind when Ciel tried to push her head so that it rested on his chest.
All the members of the Jian Clan were instantly made jealous, but they couldn't do anything about it.
Jian Wuxin loved Ciel, and Ciel was also a great guy.
Who knew how many times the Sword God had advised her to leave Ciel while constantly saying that Ciel was a bastard. Unfortunately, she still insisted that she would be with Ciel forever.
She didn't hesitate to scold the Sword God whenever the latter insulted Ciel.
