Reincarnated With the Seduction System

Chapter 114: Seraphina’s Teasing

As the midday sun filtered through the thick canopy of Shadowgrove Forest, Adrian and Seraphina found a small clearing.

The recent battles had invigorated Adrian, but he could feel the weight of fatigue in his limbs. The forest air was cool, yet his body radiated the warmth of exertion.

Seraphina, with a casual flick of her wrist, cast a barrier of shimmering blue light around them. It pulsed softly, warding off potential threats from the area.

"We should rest here," she said, her voice as calm and controlled as ever. "You've leveled up twice in the last few hours. Impressive work."

Adrian grinned, rolling his shoulders. "Thanks to your help, as always."

With the barrier in place, Adrian stepped back, focusing on the remains of the defeated monsters scattered around the clearing.

It was time to collect the spoils of their labor. Concentrating, he activated his system's remote storage function.

With a flicker, the carcasses of the shadow wolves, golems, and other creatures disappeared, vanishing into his personal inventory in an instant.

Seraphina's eyes widened in surprise, watching as the carcasses vanished in a blink. "So that's how you do it," she mused aloud, her eyes shimmering with curiosity.

"I almost forgot you have those storage abilities. It's still fascinating to see it in action."

Adrian chuckled. "Comes in handy, doesn't it? Just like it did back in Mortimer's territory when I looted him blind."

Seraphina smirked, remembering the chaos Adrian had caused with his unique abilities. "Clever, as always," she remarked, her tone carrying an affectionate undertone. "Now, let's see what you can whip up for lunch."

Adrian nodded, retrieving some of the monster meat from his storage, along with a variety of spices and cooking equipment he had bought from the system previously.

His hands moved with the precision of someone who had done this countless times before. Soon, the sizzling sounds of roasting meat filled the air, mingling with the scent of rich spices and herbs.

As he worked, Seraphina stepped closer, her body brushing against his. The warmth of her presence, along with the softness of her chest, pressed gently against his arm.

Her lips curved into a playful smile. "You're quite skilled with more than just daggers, aren't you?" she teased, her voice a sultry purr as she leaned in closer.

Adrian's heart raced, his focus momentarily drifting from the food to the seductive aunt beside him.

"If you keep doing that," he said with a grin, trying to maintain his composure, "I might just forget about the food and eat you instead."

Seraphina's lips curled into a wicked smile. "Go on," she whispered, her breath warm against his ear. "Like I said before, I am already yours, after all." Her tone was equal parts teasing and sincere, a playful challenge that made Adrian's blood surge.

His hand instinctively moved toward her, fingers brushing against the curve of her breast. But just as his palm grazed the soft fabric of her robe, Seraphina pulled away with a teasing laugh, her eyes twinkling mischievously. "Not so fast, pervert," she said, wagging a finger at him.

Adrian grumbled under his breath, a mixture of frustration and amusement stirring inside him. "You're playing dirty, Aunt."

She laughed softly, her gaze filled with warmth as she leaned back, watching him continue cooking. Despite the teasing, there was an undeniable connection between them.

As the food finished cooking, Adrian plated the roasted monster meat along with some side dishes he had brought in his storage.

They ate in comfortable silence for a while, enjoying the flavors of the meal. The monster meat was surprisingly tender, seasoned to perfection with the spices Adrian had brought from the castle. Even Seraphina, who had lived a life of luxury, seemed impressed by the taste.

As they rested, the sun dipped lower in the sky, casting long shadows through the trees. The barrier Seraphina had placed still shimmered faintly, its protective magic holding strong.

After finishing her meal, Seraphina stood up, stretching her arms above her head with a soft sigh.

She approached Adrian, her eyes glinting with mischief again. Without warning, she grabbed his hand pulling it close to her body until his hand rested fully on her breast.

Leaning in, she whispered in his ear, "This is your payment for the delicious meal, Mr.Cook." Her breath was hot against his skin, sending a shiver down his spine as she blew softly into his ear.

Adrian felt his blood rush, the heat from Seraphina's teasing touch flooding his senses. Just as he raised his other hand to grasp her more fully, she pulled away again, laughing softly at his frustrated expression.

"You're impossible," Adrian muttered, feeling the tension coil inside him. Seraphina seemed to enjoy this game of cat and mouse, always staying just out of reach.

She smirked, her eyes half-lidded as she looked at him. "Careful, Adrian. If you keep grumbling like that, I might start to think you can't handle a little teasing."

Adrian exhaled slowly, forcing himself to calm down. "If you keep teasing me like this," he warned, his voice a low growl, "I might just turn into a beast."

Seraphina's lips curled into a seductive smile. "Go ahead," she whispered, her voice dripping with temptation. "I'm waiting for you to do that and ravage me like you do to your mother and sister."

Adrian felt his pulse quicken, but he knew better than to take the bait. Seraphina was always one step ahead, and in this playful dance, she held all the cards.

Closing his eyes for a moment, Adrian steadied his breathing, forcing himself to focus. There was still work to be done, and getting caught up in her teasing wouldn't help him level up any faster.

After a few moments of silence, he opened his eyes and looked at her. "Let's continue," he said, his voice steady. "I need to level up more before the day ends."

Seraphina's teasing expression softened as she nodded, her demeanor shifting from playful to serious. "Alright," she agreed, her eyes sharp once more. "Let's get back to it."

They cleared away the remnants of their meal, and Seraphina dismissed the magical barrier with a wave of her hand.

The air around them seemed to hum with energy as they prepared to dive back into battle.

Once again, the creatures of the forest sensed the intrusion of their territory. From the shadows, dark wolves, shadowy figures, and another hulking golem emerged.

The forest seemed to stir in response to their presence, the air thick with the tension of an impending fight.

Seraphina wasted no time. Her magic surged, rippling outward in a wave of energy that struck the creatures, weakening them just as she had done before.

Adrian was already moving, his daggers flashing as he lunged forward, dispatching the creatures with swift, precise strikes.

It was the same well-practiced dance—Seraphina weakening, Adrian finishing. The creatures fell one by one, their bodies collapsing under the weight of Seraphina's magic and Adrian's lethal precision.

As the sun began to set, casting a deep orange glow over the forest, Adrian could feel the power coursing through him.

He had leveled a total of 5 times today, with the help of Seraphina. Seraphina then said,"Let's stop here for today, we will continue tomorrow."
