Chapter 134 - Winter Queen (5)

Of course, the first one to be freed from the pocket dimension was Maetel.She took in a deep breath as she sat down.A bright smile appeared on her face when she caught sight of Artpe.He had already been released from the pocket dimension he was in.He was leisurely chewing on ice.

“Artpe!”

“Yes, yes.”

It seemed Artpe didn’t have the energy to move his body.He somehow caught Maetel, who fell towards him.He let out a sigh.Her body was cold.It was as if she had been rolling around in an ice field.

“Your body is cold”

“Yes.Artpe should warm me up.”

She rubbed her face against his neck as she acted like a spoiled child.He stroked her head as many thoughts went through his head.

He found out from his conversation with the Winter Queen that his dreams were the result of sharing Records with Maetel.It meant that there was a possibility that Maetel had already recovered the memory of her past life.She might have recovered it long before today.

‘······personally, I think it is nonsense.’

Once she found out Artpe used to be a Four Heavenly King, there was no way Maetel could stick to him in such a familiar manner.However, he couldn’t completely put this possibility out of his mind.At times, she had revealed a very mature side to her, and that worried him.

“Artpe is too warm.I think Artpe is spring.”

“······I guess I’m mistaken.”

“Huh?What is it?”

“It is nothing.”

If she knew about what he had done during his life as a Four Heavenly King, there was no way she would liken him to spring.He didn’t think she was acting.Her personality wouldn’t allow her to hide such information about herself.

Still…Maybe…

What if something that he didn’t know about was hidden within Maetel…..

“Artpe, you have a far away look again.You are hiding something from me!”

“How about you?….do you have anything you are hiding?”

“Huh? Mmmm······ Ah.”

At Artpe’s impulsive question, Maetel blinked her eyes.Then she let out a mischievous laughter.She put her arms around Artpe’s neck, and she pressed her body againsthim.

“Eh-eet.”

“Hey, hey.”

She said she was trying to heat up her cold body.She was using such a frivolous reason to accentuate her chest.Artpe was taken aback, so he tried to turn his gaze away.

“Artpe, I am hiding one thing.”

At that moment, Maetel spoke as if she was trying to capture his attention.She truly had exquisite timing.Artpe hesitated a little bit before he answered her.

“You’ll probably say something offensive, so I don’t need to hear······.”

“······in truth, my breasts became larger again.”

“As expected, it is something offensive.”

Her shame and sense of embarrassment had been left behind in mountain village and the Ancient ruin.It was a level of boldness that he expected from her.However, it was also true that her words had removed all the worries he had about her.In the end, he let out a sigh, and he tried to stroke her head…..

“Artpe, I think I’m big enough.”

“Huh?”

“Artpe, you said you wanted me to grow quickly?”

“······ah.”

Danger had approached him from a completely different direction!He hadn’t even been worried about this.It was an outrageous danger!

‘Shit.Wait a moment.Did I really?I did during the Kraken…..!’

Maetel didn’t need to give an additional explanation.In a flash, Artpe had assessed the situation, and he shuddered.The fact that he had forgotten about it was the more surprising part.He clearly recalled what had occurred.

That’s right.It was during the fight against the Kraken.Artpe hadn’t acted appropriately for a being his age.He had fallen for Maetel.He had been half-bewitched by her.He vividly remembered saying words that he would have never said if he was of sound mind.

After they killed the Kraken, he had exchanged a short conversation with her before he had lost consciousness.He had forgotten about it until now.However, he remembered it perfectly right now.

“Haven’t I grown a lot?”

“······you’ve grown enough.”

He even wondered if several parts of her body had grown too much.

Wait a moment.Why was she bigger than her past self?Was it because of her eating habits?Was it the effect of the rapid level ups?Was it the power of her will?Was it a miracle?He was hopelessly mired by the countless questions that were forming in his mind.However, there was only one question that was important.

“So we are going to marry!?”

Maetel had grown using Artpe’s words as a barometer.Maetel’s expectation had grown so large that she was about to explode.

“Marriage······.”

“Yes, you said you’ll marry me when I’m done growing!”

No additional hints had been needed.Somehow, she managed to reach the keyword called marriage all by herself.Artpe had a faraway look as he placed his hand on Maetel’s head.

“However, Maetel….Enough is not satisfactory.”

“What!?”

“You and I are heroes.Do you really think I’ll be satisfied with ‘grown enough’?”

He had to somehow get out of this situation, so he started spouting nonsense.

“T...that….You do have a point, but…..!”

Of course, Maetel was an idiot, so she was convinced by his words.She nodded her head!

“That is why I want you to grow more.”

“Yes!I’ll grow faster!However, I don’t want to be taller than Artpe…..”

After saying those words, she passed her hands over her already ample breasts.Then she clenched her fists.Artpe inwardly thought he might have caused another problem, but on the other hand, he got a confirmation.There was no way this idiot remembered her past life.

“Hoo-ooh.From now on, here and here….Mmm.I think that feels about right….”

“······mmm?”

At that moment, Artpe suddenly had a thought when he observed her behavior.

“Maetel······ You know of a method to grow those parts!?”

“Of course!”

He was given a truly shocking answer!

“As I leveled up, I was able to gain some control over my development through the Acceleration ability!This is why I became faster and stronger after I gained my Innate ability.I was able to grow my muscles.”

“So it is possible to do such a thing through Acceleration….”

“My level was rising fast, but I was worried my body won't grow as fast.That is why I tried this method and it worked!Ooh-hue-hue.I’ll grow so much that Artpe will accept me without being able to say a peep!”
