398 Night Beach
Sofia was surprised by this... Because only his father and Alfred had memorized her name up to now. Others always call him Sofia Vladimir, completely omitted by the middle name and the rest.
“What a long name...” Michael muttered in a quiet voice.
“Aha! Just as I thought!” Kidd had a proud smile on his face. The corner of his lips was curled upwards. But then he looked at Michael and Fein and his expression became discouraged. “Fuck! I realized that Michael has a girlfriend. Now, Fein also had a girlfriend! About me? Am I the only one single? This isn’t fair...”
Fein couldn’t help but laughed inwardly when he saw Kidd’s exaggerated behavior. After all, with Kidd’s appearance, if he wants a girlfriend, he won’t have to do a lot. Though, that’s just if he wants to have a girlfriend and doesn’t have a specific requirement. But if he wants true love or some specific that the girl possessed, that’s the hard part and he must make an effort.
“Hello Sofia, I’m Gregory, captain of this branch... I’ve heard a lot about you from Fein. Nice to meet you.” Gregory smiled at Sofia and displayed the proper demeanor befitting a captain. “Welcome to the Ranger’s Eye base. I didn’t expect that Fein would have a girlfriend with his personality. But as I see you now, I know why.”
“Nice to meet you.” Sofia smiled in response to Gregory’s words.
‘Captain really has his way with words. As expected of an old fog.’ Fein was amazed at how smoothly Gregory directed the flow of conversation.
“Well, I’m Michael, a B rank degu user, and Fein’s friend and teammate. Nice to meet you.” Michael bowed slightly and introduced himself.
Seeing this, Kidd knew that he had to do the same. Although he jokes around every single time. He still knew how to act like a gentleman. He looked at Sofia and couldn’t help but praise Fein’s luck and taste.
.....
Kidd knew what the Vladimir family signifies. Although the master of the family wasn’t high in the ranking of nobility, its influence could even rival dukes and marquis.
“Hi, I’m Kidd. The worldwide handsome. A b rank degu user like Michael here and Fein’s best friend!” Kidd imitated Michael’s bow from before and smiled.
‘B rank? It seems he really doesn’t want to reveal that he already ascended to A rank.’ Fein thought.
“Nice to meet you two. Fein told me a lot about you two.” Sofia said politely.
“Like what?” Kidd became curious.
“Like how he defeated you in all the competitions and games one time.” Sofia looked at Fein beside him.
Fein didn’t expect that Sofia would say this. “It’s true that I really defeated them. And it’s a one-sided beating.”
“I didn’t expect that you use us to brag just to make your girl amaze to you.” Kidd twitched.
Michael, on the other hand, didn’t speak and just kept quiet, as he didn’t want to open such a dark past again.
“Hmmm... When did the three of you compete?” Gregory returned to his laid-back demeanor.
Just like that, the group talked just about any topic they delve into and continues to remember the past. Sofia became more and more comfortable around the group and less awkward. She even shares interesting stories she had, including her adventure in the secret realm with Fein and some interesting facts about nobilities.
...
Sofia and Fein sat beside each other. The breeze of the night, the moon above the sky, and the several white dots made the beach particularly enchanting at night.
The two were sitting on a blue picnic cloth while gazing at the starry sky. They are near the shore and witness small sea waves emerge from the sea surface and gradually disappear until the sea became quiet and clear like a mirror.
After Fein introduce Sofia to his teammates and talked with them. They continued their date. They hiked to the mountain where Fein had trained his technique and body from his early phase and did a picnic there. Though, the traces of destruction because of his training, the past was still there.
At that time, Sofia challenged him to a game of chess. She tried to outsmart him many times, but it was in vain. Fein’s brain had already almost reached the level of a supercomputer that he could calculate almost all the openings and the best possible moves on the chessboard.
Of course, Fein didn’t want to discourage Sofia, so he proposed to dance at the peak of the mountain. A rare moment that he would never forget and wound cherished forever. And at the end of their dance, they decided to go to the beach at night.
Fein used his connection from the QWERTY and contacted the owner directly to book the entire place.
And now, they are all alone on the shore with the white sand and pine trees around them.
“Did you enjoy our date?” Fein looked gently at Sofia and pulled her closer to his body and hugged her from behind. With this, he could feel the warmth of her body a little.
Sofia didn’t resist and moved to a comfortable position so Fein could hug her easily. “I feel happy with you. You let me experience a lot of enjoyable things just in one day. If I can, I want to freeze the time just so the moments would never end.” She looked at the quiet surface of the water for a moment. She has a sweet smile on her face and tried not to make her voice shaky. “Fein, do you love me?”
Hearing Sofia’s question, Fein didn’t answer but went in front of Sofia and leaned his head slowly at hers.
Sofia closed her eyes, then she felt the soft touch on her lips and Fein’s warm, moist lips. It was as if time froze. She felt an overwhelming joy flow through her entire being.
Fein ended the kiss and looked at Sofia with a smile. “You’re the only girl that I want in my life and spend the rest of my time with. So, what do you think? Do I love you?”
Sofia’s, who heard the words, looked at Fein, and her eyes began to blur, her heart pounded faster, and she only felt as her eyes started to excrete tears because of the joy she felt.
With this, Sofia pushed Fein to the ground and took the initiative to kiss him. Then she only felt his tongue invade hers, but she just let it and fully let her instincts take over and immersed herself to enjoy the heat of the moment.
