Chapter 212 â Not at all.
Noah looked at Noelle with some surprise in his eyes. He didnât expect a woman like her to be this... shy?
That thought felt almost funny to him. But he didnât laugh. He didnât mock her shyness in any way.
He just smiled softly. "What do you mean by âI stalked youâ?" Noah asked, completely ignoring what had just happened.
He didnât want to make Noelle feel awkward.
And Noelle was very aware of thatâand instantly, her nervousness calmed down significantly.
She took a deep breath to steady herself and began to speak, though her voice was still soft, still calm.
"Exactly what it sounds like. I started observing you the moment you got a fragment of an Origin and destroyed that dungeon," Noelle said gently.
And instantly, Noah understood. He remembered that dayâremembered feeling a strange instinctive pull, but also a sense of danger toward the gaping void heâd created.
Was she responsible for that pull? Or the danger?
He didnât know. And honestly? He didnât care.
What mattered now was that the woman in front of him had stalked him. Had observed him from afar before coming to him.
What mattered was that his Fate affinity was telling himâthis girl was good news.
And now, he had a pretty good idea why.
It had been a long time since Noah bonded with someone stronger than him. Someone who could elevate him to a whole new level of abomination.
Shadeva was a good candidate. Very good. But even after all their time together, her affection still hadnât reached 70%.
What a complicated fellow.
But now? He had a stalker.
And if she was a stalker, that meant he interested her. And the fact that sheâd come all the way here to meet himâit meant...
âShe must be pretty close already, right? âNoah wondered.
âSystem, show me her affection level.â
[Noelleâs Affection Level: 60%]
Noah couldnât help but smile.
This... this was exactly what he needed to prepare himself for what was to come. For what he promised those elves.
He had to keep that promise.
He wasnât going to disappoint them. Giving false hope wasnât his style.
That wouldâve been... tragic.
So, seeing this opportunity land right in front of him, Noah gave Noelle a huge smile.
"Noelle, right? You entered my home without an invitation, but I think you can stay here a little longer," he said with a grin.
"What do you think about that?"
Noelleâs artificial heart skipped a beat when she heard him.
The more she looked at him... the more she talked to him... the more she wanted to know more.
The more she wanted to look more.
Soâ
"Can I continue to stalk you?" Noelle asked instinctively, voicing her inner thoughts without a filter.
And she immediately regretted it, slapping a hand over her mouth, shocked at herself.
That action was unfairly adorable.
But inside her mind, Noelle was spiraling.
âDid I go too far? Did I sound creepy? Will he think Iâm weird now?â
âArgh... I started off so well...â she complained inwardly, scolding herself.
But really?
She was worrying for nothing.
Because if thereâs one thing Noah had come to love after spending so long around his womenâ
It was crazy, weird girls.
At this point, if you werenât either insane or strange, Noah wouldnât even see you.
And Noelle? She was both.
And he loved it.
So he simply laughed, dispelling all of Noelleâs growing frustration.
"Yes. You can stalk me if you want," Noah said with a smile. "But itâs better to ask my womenâs opinion first about it."
A smile that Noelle returned, happily.
Thatâs when she suddenly remembered something. She quickly addedâ
"Ah! For entering your realm without permissionâIâve prepared some gifts," she said with a sheepish smile, slightly embarrassed by the intrusion.
"I... I saw your interactions, how the world was destroyed... Iâm sorry I didnât intervene. I... I really wanted to, but... I didnât know..." she stammered, struggling to find the right words. She was trying to say she was shy, but it came out in pieces.
But Noah had already guessed that about her. And honestly? She had nothing to do with what happened in Laeh. That was his responsibility. He was the one who failed to protect them. To protect Laeh.
So he didnât blame her.
Wouldnât blame anyone but himself.
Thatâs why heâd do anything nowâto kill those bastards.
And it seemed, this shy woman was more than just someone to bond with. Because she continuedâ
"I can give you the location of the old lady you need to subdue if you want to win against them. And also..."
Noelle paused, eyes narrowing slightly as she looked at Noah attentively. With her level of power, it was easy to seeâ
He was injured. Very injured.
And despite that, not a single ripple of pain was visible on his face.
âYouâre becoming more and more interesting,â she thought, before continuing,
"I can help you heal. I can help you integrate the core into your realm much faster."
At those unexpectedâbut very welcomeâwords, Noah slowly stood up and took Noelleâs hands into his.
Startling her completely.
He held her hands with both of his and looked into her black eyes, speaking with the most sincere tone he had ever used:
"Noelle... are you trying to seduce me? Because if yes... let me tell you something..."
"...youâre too good at it."
Noelleâs face went absolutely red.
The close proximity. His hands. His words.
She was melting in a pure mix of delight and embarrassment.
"I... I... thank you...?" she finally muttered, with an uncertain smile, as if she wasnât even sure that was the right thing to say.
And Noah couldnât help but find her too adorable.
There was something mystifying about seeing such a beautiful womanâone who could probably kill him effortlessly or make him fleeânow acting so cute and shy in front of him.
It was such a pleasing feeling. And he couldnât help but want more of her. More of this side of her.
So he smiled.
"Noelle, welcome to the Vaelgrims. Weâre a pretty open and hospitable bunch, so donât worry."
"Youâll be treated well. Very well," he added with a grin.
...
Inside the Lotus Garden, Leona watched the scene unfold and simply shook her head in amusement.
"Looks like weâll be getting another one," she muttered.
"Seems like it," Nephis replied, biting her lips in frustration. "But I just hope he doesnât fuck her before he fucks us."
Watching Noah fuck Dominique and Lilith had made her very horny.
And not just herâLeona too. Sonomi. Katy. Morgan.
They wouldnât say it out loud, but what they saw that day? It left them all unable to sleep peacefully.
âSuch a huge cock,â Sonomi thought, instinctively comparing Noahâs dick to her husbandâsâand wincing in disappointment.
âIt must feel so good,â Katy thought, pressing her thighs together and clenching hard so no liquid would spill.
As for Morgan... well.
âSuch deep veins on his dick. I want to suck the blood out of them,â she thought, her eyes going hazy for a second.
Each of them had different thoughtsâbut the core remained the same:
They wanted to be fucked by Noah.
Was that surprising?
Not at all.
