Chapter 129: A Small Leap

Mira’s defences were quickly crumbling but before things got overwhelming I stopped, my current priority was to just change her view of me, as for the rest I have time, after all I wanted her to fall in love with me and it takes time

As soon as the overwhelming sensations started to disappear Mira took a deep breath and closed her eyes, as soon as she had opened them back they were calm, as expected of a successful woman she was quickly able to riel in her emotions

As she opened her eyes she was met with her nephews caring and concerned eyes, even though small she could even now fell my emotions filling her body, seeing that I was becoming more worried she spoke up

“I am fine, it was nothing major”

“Oh, I am glad, I thought that something had happened”

Even though I spoke happily, I was ‘nervous’ as my voice was a bity shaky, Mira could feel ‘nervousness’ from me. she could feel that I was scared of what her reaction would be, Mira raised her hands as she caught mine, just as she did a small pleasant sensation filled her body, it was much lesser than before but it was still there

“Austin I am happy that you had felt that way but you should know things would never work between us, I love you as a nephew, nothing more”

Those words were hurtful but Mira had to do it, she had to make sure that her nephew would completely give away such unhealthy feelings , as soon as she had finished speaking my body ‘shook’, I smiled ‘weakly’ as I spoke

“I know aunt, as I said I have already locked those feelings away, it’s just that after seeing you they just seemed to get stronger but don’t worry I know about my felling and I will surely get rid of them completely”

Even though I spoke with a smile, a deep sense of pain filled Mira’s body, she would literally feel her nephew’s heart breaking, her heart clenched feeling it but she had to stay her stand, it was for the best, she let go of her nephew’s hand and tried to control her raging feelings

“Good, it’s better that you find someone else, I am sure that you would be able to find an amazing woman for yourself”

“Sure, I will…..”

There was an awkward silence between us as we had finished speaking, Mira had no idea what she should do now, after all now that she had heard about my feelings she really couldn’t just see me as a child, I was the one to break the silence

“It seems that it’s late, I will be heading out now”

“Sure”

Just as I was heading out, I acted like I remembered something and took out a small white marble, I held it in my hand as I presented it to Mira

“Hear you go aunt, this is a gift that I had prepared for you”

Hearing the words gift and feeling my exited emotions she looked at the small marble at my hand, seeing it her eyes shook in surprise

“How?!”

“I just happened to find it”

Hearing my lackluster reply Mira was stunned because the thing in my hands is not something you could just happened to find, coming out of her surprise she heavily shook her head, denying my gift

“No Austin this is too precious, you could use it for yourself when you reached the peak”

I Shook my head as I aggressively placed the marble on her hands, the thing I gave her was called a law stone, it’s use was simple it helps you to learn a world’s law, as simple as it functions seems, the law stone is something every origin level 10 desires

They would be willing to sell all their family fortune for it but getting it is not easy at all, law stones are something that is formed from this world naturally, it’s extremely rare to get one

Holding the marble in her hands Mira looked at me, I smiled to her as I spoke

“Take it aunt, aren’t we family, plus it would take me a long time to reach the peak so it’s better you use it”

“No, Austin don’t you know it’s value?, you found it and you should use it for yourself”

“Aunt”

My voice became deep, suddenly Mira could feel my anger filling her body

“This is a gift that I want you to have, you not accepting it means that you don’t think of me as family and don’t even think of just holding on to it, if you think of me as family use it, please”

Hearing my pleading words and feeling my genuine emotion’s of desire for her to use it, Mira became conflicted, on one hand she’s happy at receiving such love and care but on the other hand she feels guilty that she’s using my feelings for her profit, I ‘sighed’ as I put one of my hands on her face, causing Mira’s body to tremble with happiness, I pulled her face to look into mine directly

“Aunt, trust me, I want you to use it, I might be saying this out of my own selfishness but I want you to be happy and this is my desire for you to have it so please use it”

Mira hesitated for some time before she sighed and accepted the gift, I smiled cheekily as I spoke to her

“If aunt is that reluctant you can pay me for that gift”

“Pay you?”

“Yes”

Even though suspicious she asked

“What do you need?”

I smiled smugly as I pointed to my cheeks

“I would be happy as long as you give me a kiss”

“Sigh….what am I going to do with you, you are willing to give away a law rune for a kiss”

“But to me your kiss is worth more than the world”

Hearing my serious reply and feeling my emotions, for the first time Mira blushed, she could feel her heart beating faster for a moment but she took a deep breath to control it, she hesitated on my reply, she had kissed my cheeks when I was young but now for some reason when she was asked to kiss it a strange sensation filled her body

Looking at my eager face she thought over it for a bit

‘It’s just a kiss’

Thinking that there was no harm in it she slowly stood up and she kissed my cheeks in a a hurry but I could still feel the sensation on my cheeks

“So soft…”

Hearing my unconscious reply, Mira heartbeat started to beat up again, I didn’t say anything else as I happily smiled and left the room, as soon as I did Mira fell on to the couch with a dazed expression, she couldn’t believe what had happened till now

“Sigh…what’s happening to me”

Mira could only complain as she looked at the ceiling, not knowing that this was just the beginning
