Kai and Amber stayed in the fox temple until morning. They returned to their inn while talking to each other.

Last night was rough, and Kai fell asleep after midnight, leaving Amber with Rena to talk with each other as both didn't need to sleep. The three-tailed fox's behavior returned to normal in the morning, and she didn't necessarily worship him anymore.

"So, what actually is the descendant of the strongest, and how is that related to me?"

He couldn't hold his curiosity anymore and asked Amber as they walked down the hill. Some pedestrians walked past them, but they didn't really care about what they talked about.

"It is just as I said. Your ancestor was possibly the strongest human in the Supernatural World from a thousand years ago."

That he already knew. He wasn't as stupid as not to understand what the words descendant of the strongest meant.

Still, his ancestor once was the strongest in the Supernatural World. That was cool and all. But didn't that mean he had a lot of enemies? Or was he a saint that protected a lot of people and was respected? He didn't know.

Anyway, Amber mentioned it was a thousand years ago. Didn't that mean most of the people had already forgotten him?

Humans might have forgotten him. Other races, such as Supernatural Beasts and Mythical Beasts with long lifespans? They surely still remembered a human once called the strongest.

"What is his name?" He asked curiously.

"I don't know. I wasn't born yet at that time." Amber shook her head. "But I heard from my mother that he could make a contract with a Mythical Beast just like you. That's why I immediately know you are the descendant of that person, the one called the strongest."

"I… see…" He couldn't blame her. As curious as he was, he couldn't force her not to know about it. "Then… I want to ask something else."

They had walked far from the shrine, down the road, and almost reached their inn before Kai stopped and looked at Amber seriously.

"What is it, Kai?" She smiled cheekily at him, just like usual.

"Are you serious about loving me? And about the contract with other Mythical Beasts or Mythical Creatures… I can really do that?"

"Of course." She nodded seriously. "I will not make a contract with you if I don't love you. Besides, I am open to polygamy too." She grinned widely, taking Kai's arm and holding it tightly.

Somehow he didn't mind the touch. He even enjoyed it. Was it because she was Amber?

Usually, he hated to be touched by a girl. One of the reasons why he didn't have a girlfriend even when he was attractive and had a steady business running.

But Amber's touch was… different. He felt happy and even enjoyed it. He suspected the contract had something to do with it, but he didn't really mind it.

She was a really beautiful girl. Of course, as a man, he also wanted her to be his girlfriend, his lover. So when he found out she actually loved him, he had nothing holding him back anymore.

"Then…" He looked at Amber and leaned closer. They had entered the inn area, and the area was usually filled with tourists.

It was still 6 in the morning, so the street was almost as empty as a cemetery. No one was there.

"You don't mind if I do this?" He planted his lips against the surprised Amber.

She had never expected Kai to take the initiative. It wasn't a kiss to do fusion, no. His will was transmitted to her through their connection, and she knew it was a kiss to show his love toward her. She was happy and closed her eyes, enjoying their kiss for a moment.

After what felt like a minute, they parted away, and Amber smiled happily.

"Fufufu, is that your answer, Kai?"please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

"Yeah." He nodded and stepped away. His hair was still let loose, so he took out a rubber band from his pocket and tied it in a ponytail. "Let's return to the inn. I want to take a bath." He said.

"Sure!" She exclaimed and took his arm. After getting an answer, she felt like she didn't need to hide her feelings much more and decided to be brazen. "We can hold hands in the open, right?"

"If that's what you want."

***

Arriving at his inn, the first thing Kai did was hop on the outdoor bath. He almost had no chance to use it, as Amber always used it whenever she had the chance.

Was it because she was a bird that she loved to take a bath? Or she just enjoyed the sensation of hot water? He didn't know. But he finally got the chance to relax, so he was glad.

The Oni Festival was tomorrow; tonight was the last night he needed to protect Rena. But he wouldn't need to protect Rena and her siblings tonight if he found the invaders first.

So his plan for this afternoon had been decided: to go around Kyoto to enjoy the scenery and find the invaders.

"Ah, this is bliss." He let out a satisfied voice as he dipped his body into the water and put a towel above his head. He watched Japanese people do this when they entered the outdoor bath in the show and always wanted to try it.

And sure, it felt great and refreshing.

"I know why Amber loves taking a bath now."

As he muttered to himself, he heard a voice coming from behind.

"Really? Then you should've joined me when I was in the bath and not running away, Kai."

"Woah?"

He immediately turned around and saw Amber crouching right behind him. She only wore a towel wrapped around her body, exposing her smooth skin and cleavage.

"What are you doing, Amber?" He asked, trying to act as calmly as possible. But the redness around his cheek betrayed his façade.

"I am here to take a bath, why?" She tilted her head as her lips curled up in a playful smile. "You kissed me earlier, so what's wrong with taking a bath together? Isn't this kind of thing normal in the US?"

"It is, but…" He was about to say that he had no experience with dealing with a girl before, but he stopped as Amber stood up and took off the towel around her body. "Hey!" He immediately shouted and looked away.

"Fufufu, how cute," Amber said, followed by a splashing sound of water. She entered the bath and then sat beside Kai. "You can look, you know?"

"No thanks." He replied almost immediately. "Aren't you too honest right now?" He asked, looking at the sky.

"I am always honest." She replied. "But you are holding yourself back too much. If it's a normal man, I am sure I would already be attacked on the first day. I was expecting to be attacked, but you just walked out of the room calmly when we first slept together."

"That's!" Because of her words, he turned to her and then froze in place. Amber was really naked without wearing anything. Her big breasts were floating on the water, and a cheeky smile was plastered on her face.

She slowly leaned toward him, taking his hand and pushing it against her breasts.

"That's why, Kai." Her face got closer to his, and he knew he couldn't run this time. "I will make sure we do it this time. I won't let you run." She licked her lips seductively.

'Shit.' Kai thought. 'If she's like this, then I won't be able to hold back either.'
