Outside the mall, the hot afternoon air brushed against Brandon's face as he stood beside the Porsche they had arrived in.
With a satisfied sigh, Ravene opened the trunk, neatly placing the shopping bags inside.
The bags rustled as she carefully stacked them, ensuring nothing was crushed—especially the more delicate purchases from earlier.
Brandon looked at the new white jacket he was wearing and adjusted the collar a bit.
Ravene glanced at him as she shut the trunk "That jacket looks good on you..."
Brandon looked at her with a smile "Well, ofcourse, you picket it up after all."
Giggling, she moved toward him and hugged his arm "Now we just need to boy you a new mobile.. and then we eat, and then we leave."

They finally reached an upscale electronics store.
Rows of the latest smartphones were displayed across sleek counters.
A sales assistant inside was taken aback to see the youngman entering and hurriedly approached them.
"W-Welcome! How can I help you today?"
Ravene glanced at Brandon and spoke "He needs a new phone."
The sales assistant nodded her head and looked at Brandon "Got it. Are you looking for something specific? Or just the latest model?"
Brandon shrugged "Just give me the latest model."
The sales assistant smiled and led them to one of the premium display sections "In that case, I'd recommend this one," she said, gesturing to a sleek, top-of-the-line smartphone.
"It has one of the fastest processors on the market, a long-lasting battery, and an ultra-durable design. Plus, its security features are top-notch."
Brandon picked it up, testing the weight in his hand.
He tapped the screen and looked through the interface for a bit.
"Looks good. I will take this one."
Ravene leaned over his shoulder, resting her chin against him "Hah, that was easy. No complaints?"
Within a few minutes, the purchase was completed, and Brandon walked out of the store with a brand-new phone in hand.
He powered it on, syncing his data from his old device as they headed back to the car.
Ravene stretched her arms as she got into the driver's seat "Alright, food time."

It was already night~
Brandon was sitting on the bed in Ravene's room, leaning on the bed rest as he scrolled through the new mobile.
Dressed in nothing but a pair of comfortable shorts, his toned torso was fully exposed to the cool night air as the dim lighting accentuated the contours of his muscles
Meanwhile, Ravene is sitting in front of the computer trying to access the private encrypted channel with Elize.
The quiet beeping of failed connection attempts added to her frustration.
With a deep sigh, she leaned back in her chair, rubbing her temples 'Things like these could not be spoken normally through phone.'
She took her mobile and again tried to call Elize, but after a long ring no one picked it up from that side.
She checked it for a little while before she got down from her chair.
She rolled her shoulders before reaching for the hem of her tank top.
She pulled it over her head in one smooth motion and without hesitation, she slipped off her shorts, then unhooked her bra and slid off her underwear.
After becoming naked, she turned toward the bed and saw Brandon who was still engrossed in his phone.
A small smile tugged at her lips as she crawled onto the bed and her knees sank into the mattress as she made her way toward him.
"Kael..."
Hm? Looking at her breasts bouncing with each step, he smiled and opened his arms "Come here..."
Ravene didn't need to be told twice.
She closed the short distance between them, sliding into his embrace as she wrapped her arms around his neck.
Her body pressed against the warmth of his body, as she nestled into his chest.
He leaned down slightly, placing a gentle kiss on the top of her head "What happened? Couldn't connect with Aunt Elize?"
Closing her eyes, she hummed gently "Yeah... seems like its already asleep even though its just 10 now."
She raised her hand as her fingers lazily grazed through his chest "What do you think, Kael? Are you going to accept Naevora's offer?"
Brandon just shrugged "I barely even know her, and accepting her as master... doesn't sit well with me."
"I would have said no outright, but since Charlotte has a word in this, I couldn't refuse her."
"That's why I wanted to ask Aunt Elize's opinion before deciding."
With a nod, Ravene spoke "Naevora has a great reputation among SS awakeners. She is really powerful."
"I would even say she would be top 3 in SS rank awakeners... but still."
Ravene shifted slightly in his arms and tilted her head up, meeting his gaze with a playful glint in her eyes.
Without a word, she leaned in, pressing her lips softly against his.
A bit later, she pulled back the kiss slightly, just enough to let her breath mingle with his.
She dipped her head, pressing another kiss along the line of his jaw. Then another.
Her lips trailed down to his neck, before parting her lips and sucking gently.
Brandon exhaled as he felt the faint pull of her mouth against his skin as she lingered there, her lips creating a faint mark at the base of his neck.
After a moment, she pulled back just a little, looking at her work with a satisfied smirk.
"There," she murmured, brushing a finger lightly over the small hickey. "Now you're marked."
Brandon chuckled as his hand wandered down grasping her ass "Seriously?"
Ravene hummed in amusement "You don't like it?"
"I didn't say that."
She giggled and pressed a small kiss over the mark before moving lower.
Her lips grazed along his collarbone, leaving featherlight touches as she trailed her way down.
"Shall we sleep then?"
He squeezed her ass tightly making her squirm in his arms "Sleep?"
Ravene giggled against his skin "You pervert..."

Next day morning-
Brandon is sitting in front of the computer naked, and Ravene is also sitting on his lap naked, hugging him.
As the monitor's screen flickered, the encrypted channel finally connected.
From the other side, Elize's voice was heard "Kael, Rave..."
Brandon's eyes lightened up "Aunt Elize."
"Elize, where did you go last night?"
Elize sighed, then let out a small chuckle. "I was... busy."
Brandon gave her a deadpan look "You were drinking again, weren't you?"
Hearing this, Elize just sighed "Kael, without you.. I have nothing else to do. So that is how I pass my time."
Hearing this, Brandon's gaze lowered, and Ravene leaned forward kissing his cheek to reassure him.
"Leave that Elize, tell me.. did Charlotte tell you about Naevora."
With a nod, Elize replied "Yeah, she did..."
Ravene narrowed her eyes slightly. "So, what do you think? Should Brandon accept her offer?"
Letting out a sigh, Ravene replied "At first, I hesitated when I heard about an SS-rank awakener wanting to train him."
"Well, because SS-rank awakeners aren't exactly known for being... patient teachers,"
"Most of them have little interest in training others unless there's something in it for them. It made me wonder what Naevora's true intentions were."
"But after hearing the training method she came up with, I was quite interested. In fact, I'd say it's probably the best way to train you, Kael."
Hm? Brandon was surprised "What kind of training method is that..."
With a shake of her head, Elize replied "You will know when she herself tells you..."
"So I would say its good to accept her, and she is also one of Char's friends..."
"Now the decision is in your hands."

Walking through the Academic hallways, Brandon's gaze squinted in thought 'Naevora...'
As he remembered her face, he sighed in his heart 'Well she was hot... but still, a master.'
Ravene couldn't really train him because she is busy with research work and she also doesn't have rich experience as a fighter.
As for Charlotte, she is even busier clearing ruptures, towers and dungeons.
So logically, accepting Naevora's offer was the best move.
Having someone that powerful to guide him could give him the edge he needed.
But a part of him still hesitated.
"Brand~"
Suddenly someone wrapped her arm around his shoulder and he turned his head to look at the short blue haired beauty.
"Elena..."
Elena smiled playfully and looked at his face "Good morning, what is it? Looks like you are deep in thought. How did the weekend go?"
With a nod, he spoke "Weekend was great... just thinking about other stuff."
She leaned in and whispered "What? Thinking about how you can kiss other girls and copy their skills."
He shook his head helplessly, hearing her tease and reached out to pinch her cheek "You should stop peeping on me."
"Haha, nope."
However, at this time, he heard another voice from behind "Brandon."
Hm? He turned back to look at Clarisse standing with a slight smile on her face.
Looking at Clarrise, Elena was startled and hurriedly lowered her head "President..."
Brandon looked at her in confusion "Senior?"
With a nod, she spoke "The Headmisteress has called you to the office."
Elena, still standing beside him, gave him a sideways glance "Wow, straight from the top, huh? What did you do?"
"Nothing,"
Clarisse shook her head softly "I doubt it's anything bad, so you don't need to look so concerned."
"Hmm, let's go."
