Sovereign of the Ashes

Chapter 49: A Different Experience

This was a situation unlike any Sein had ever encountered.

Although Faye was a delicate and slender woman, she steadily advanced toward Sein until she had him cornered in front of the bed.

Despite living alone, Faye’s quarters were more than twice the size of Sein and Leena’s.

It had a bigger experiment table, a larger bathroom and also a more spacious bed...

Sein did not see much laboratory equipment or volumes of magic tomes in Faye’s room.

Instead, he noticed an assortment of small bottles and jars containing what appeared to be magical fragrances and skincare potions.

One of the uncapped flasks emitted a fragrance similar to Faye’s usual scent.

The special fragrance aroused a strong desire within Sein.

It seemed like Faye had anticipated Sein’s arrival for quite some time, and had meticulously prepared for his visit.

Among the bottles and jars of potions, Faye had acquired a few of them just two days ago from a senior female initiate known for potion crafting.

These potions not only enhanced Faye’s radiance but also had potent aphrodisiac effects.

The senior initiate who sold them had teased Faye and assured her that the potions would provide an unforgettable experience.

Faye had invested hundreds of autrum and even parted with an intermediate magic item, which she rarely used, to acquire them.

Faye was not sure whether she had applied those potions a little too early or if it was Sein’s presence that had triggered an unforeseen chemical reaction in the air. However, the result was undeniable.

She was flushed and breathing heavily. Impatience drove her to push Sein forcefully toward the edge of the bed.

“Faye... I think we need to talk first...”

Sein was also breathing heavily, and a nervous gulp escaped his lips.

He sensed something unusual happening within him, most likely due to the effects of those potions.

However, Faye did not allow him the opportunity to talk.

She had been mentally preparing for this ever since she first raised the request with Sein a week ago.

It was her moment to enjoy the fruits of their long-standing connection.

Faye could not help but feel delighted to have such a handsome, charming, and composed junior in her faction.

Despite Faye’s initial advances, Sein put up no resistance.

In fact, he had mentally prepared himself from the moment he arrived at Faye’s dormitory building.

It was a done deal, and there was no reason to be bashful now.

What Sein wanted to clarify earlier was whether Faye was seeking a one-time experience or if she intended for this to continue long term.

If it were the latter... Sein would need to express his stance.

The situation quickly escalated.

Although Faye was the one who took the initiative in the beginning, Sein gradually took control as the situation intensified.

Faye's constitution was weaker, and her endurance did not match Leena’s, who was a more petite woman.

Leena had done it with Sein many times, whereas Faye was experiencing this for the first time.

Faye’s inexperience quickly led to her succumbing to Sein’s growing passion, and eventually collapsing onto the bed.

She had been too naive and had underestimated the potency of the potions. Moreover, she had not foreseen the extent of Sein’s stamina.

While this intense experience might have traumatized most women during their first time, for Faye, it was the passionate storm she had longed for.

Sein’s fervor and stamina were just what she desired.

Sein had previously questioned if this would be a one-time deal between them or a long term thing, but Faye’s reaction had already given him an answer.

She might have considered it a one-time deal before experiencing it, but after such a satisfying encounter, the possibility of not wanting it again was remote.

“I guess that girl wasn’t lying to me when she told me that this would be a wonderful experience. It seems my charm hasn’t diminished at all. This junior of mine is really something. Despite his resistance earlier, he’s moving his hips so fast now,” Faye thought while she was lost in the waves of pleasure.

As time passed, Faye’s exhaustion became evident.

The intense experience they had set a high standard, which would undoubtedly lead to greater expectations in the future.

“Slow down... No, faster...!”

“No, no, slower, slower!”

“Ahnn...!”

***

By the time Sein exited Faye’s dormitory building, nearly four hours had passed since his arrival.

Apart from the mental fatigue and sense of fulfillment, he also felt a hint of soreness in his lower back.

Sein had never experienced such discomfort at the age of twenty. Could it be that Faye had managed to wear him out entirely?

Of course not!

Despite his soreness and fatigue, Faye was in an even worse condition.

Before Sein left, she remained sprawled on the bed and did not respond to Sein’s calls.

Sein became worried that something might be wrong since Faye could not even sit up. The patch of blood on her white bedding was quite conspicuous.

He promptly administered an intermediate healing potion to Faye and left two nutritional potions that he had concocted behind in her room before leaving.

Sein stretched his back and composed himself before heading to the academy library.

Despite the brief indulgence, Sein remained committed to his academic pursuits.

There had been a noticeable change in Master Morsidor’s demeanor and the atmosphere in the laboratory lately, suggesting that something significant was on the horizon.

In the light of these changes, Sein remained steadfast in his pursuit of greater strength, making it his top priority.

***

Half a month had elapsed since that day.

Sein was working in the laboratory, but Faye’s intense gaze greatly troubled him.

Her eyes were filled with hunger and desire, as if she wanted to devour Sein whole.

In stark contrast to Sein’s self-restraint, Faye appeared to have suppressed her desires for too long. Over the past two weeks, she had either hinted or directly requested that Sein visit her room.

Since the incident half a month ago, Sein had visited her room twice more.

Each visit left him utterly drained, affecting the progress of his magic research and alchemy experiments.

Strangely, the only area that showed significant improvement from these activities was the effects of his meditation to improve his focus.

Despite this, the overall situation was far from ideal.

Although Faye had become addicted to sex, she remained rational, aware of the consequences of her actions as a senior initiate.

In the face of Sein’s excuses and refusals, Faye remained mostly composed.

Nevertheless, she insisted that Sein meet her at least once a week.

Although Sein kept his promise, Faye still desired more.

Not only that, the thought of Sein living with Leena fueled her frustration. She wanted to spend every day with Sein too.

Even so, Faye refrained from letting her emotions take control.

She and Leena were both senior initiates, mentored by full-fledged black mages, and held nearly equal status within the academy.

Monopolizing Sein was out of the question, especially considering that she had entered his life later than Leena.
