Chapter 10: First Kiss With Sophia
Chapter 10: First Kiss With Sophia
Sophia didn't want Adrian to suffer from heavy exercise and risk reverting to his old ways due to pain, so she asked him to do light exercises. She began imparting theories regarding different stances and how they could help strengthen him. She explained that once he had strengthened his core, she would help him with his mana circulation, and then he would be ready for his leveling-up sessions.
As she taught him, the sky began to darken, implying nightfall. Adrian couldn't help but be entranced by her beauty. Sophia had long, flowing hair that shimmered like silk under the dim light. Her eyes, deep and expressive, held a warmth that contrasted with her disciplined exterior. Her elegant features and graceful movements made her a vision of strength and beauty, making it hard for Adrian to look away.
She demonstrated various stances used in martial arts. "This is the Horse Stance," she said, spreading her legs shoulder-width apart and bending her knees as if sitting on an invisible horse. "It helps build lower body strength and stability."
"This is the Crane Stance," she continued, standing on one leg while the other was raised, her arms extended gracefully. "It enhances balance and focus."
Adrian was looking at her mesmerizing figure when she started demonstrating the stances.
Ding! Guess who's here, host, with a new feature. You guessed it right, it's your well-wisher, your almighty system.
Adrian then curtly replied, "Huh? Aren't you the Seduction System?"
The system replied as if it had heard some lame joke, "Host should learn the skill of joking. It's on sale for 69.69 SP."
Adrian's face then turned black. He replied in an angry tone, "Spill it, what black-hearted scheme have you come up with to remind me of my poverty regarding SP?"
"Host, why so harsh? I'm here to help you," the system replied, feigning hurt. "Besides, you can now utilize the system recording feature to capture and immortalize the beauty in front of you."

Adrian's eyes widened. "Really? Activate it right now!"
System: "Just like that? No 'thank you,' no 'oh wise system, you're the best'? Host, you wound me."
Adrian: "Thank you, oh wise and benevolent system. Now activate it before I miss anything."
System: "That's more like it! Activating recording feature… and done. Now you can review this moment anytime you want."
Adrian couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and embarrassment. "Wait, can I edit the recordings too?"
System: "Of course! For just 99.99 SP, you can get the Premium Editor Pack."
Adrian's face darkened again. "Forget it. I'll stick with the basics."
System: "Suit yourself, host. Just remember, I'm always here to assist you… for a price."
Sophia, finishing her routine, turned toward him to ask if he managed to remember some parts of the stances.
Covered in sweat, Adrian found her extremely charming. Her skin glistened with a slight sheen of perspiration, her cheeks flushed from exertion. The gentle rise and fall of her chest as she caught her breath added to her allure. Her eyes, usually stern and focused, now held a soft, almost vulnerable expression.
Unconsciously, he muttered, "Damn, Sophia is too beautiful; my heart can't handle it if we're always this close. I am afraid my little brother might make some trouble if this goes on."
Sophia, with her sharp senses, managed to hear his muttering. She turned beet red, her brother's murmur echoing in her mind. Her heart started racing. Even though they were siblings, somehow, he seemed more and more charming to her. She coughed, and Adrian realized he had said that aloud.
He then quickly made excuses, "I'm sorry that I let my true feelings for my sister slip away," looking like a child caught stealing candy.
Sophia couldn't help but feel a tinge of pain in her heart as she looked at her little brother. She had always thought that her brother hated her and was jealous of her talent. So, he was making her life difficult. But now, it seemed her thinking was wrong. It was the opposite; he loved her, not just as family, but as a man loves a woman.
Sophia blushed at the thought and replied, "Adrian, you shouldn't say things like that. You're working hard to change, and that's what matters. Let's focus on your training, okay?"
She felt pain in her heart as she thought about how unfairly she treated him and how she loathed him. Her little brother used to follow her saying, "Big sis, I love you. I will marry you when I get big." She always thought he was joking, but alas. Everyone used to call him her shadow as he was always following behind her.
She then made her decision. She went towards Adrian and placed her hand on his face, making him look straight into her eyes, and asked, "Do you really love big sister?" This question startled him, coming from nowhere.
He was unaware of the fact that Sophia had already cooked up reasons behind his past actions and came to the conclusion that he had forbidden feelings for her. He was struggling to come up with an answer as he began stuttering, "I-I-I-I..."
Suddenly, Sophia hugged him, burying his face right into her two huge mountains. She began consoling him, saying it was okay even if he loved her, she wouldn't treat him like before now that she knew the reason.
She even consoled him by saying if he performed well during his training, she would allow him to take her on dates and hold hands. If he could really persist, she would fulfill his one wish. Adrian, startled, realized that she had some misunderstanding regarding his feelings, but this was a welcome situation for him. His mind began to race on how to utilize this situation to complete his mission as well as make this silly beauty his.
Then he began to shed some tears and he freed himself from her hug and with puppy eyes said," Big sis then can you give me a kiss, not on cheek but on lips. I managed to endure yesterday's training and I feel like I can manage to go on if I get some reward from you."
Sophia startled looked at his crying face and couldn't have but have a feeling that his crying face was too cute and she wanted to make him cry more. She the shook her head from such dangerous thought and looked at Adrian's expectant yet hesitant and nervous face.
She sighed and replied, "Okay"
Adrian's eyes then turned wide as he didn't expect her to accept his proposal. His heart then began beating fast as he looked at the beauty in front of him. She had closed her eyes and was waiting with her lip wide open for him to take.
He then put his hands over her shoulder and brought his face to kiss her. Sophia's lips were soft and sweet, and Adrian couldn't get enough of them. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer. He started sucking and nibbling her soft lips. Sophia let out a soft moan.
Sophia had a strange feeling in her body, she was starting to feel hot, but even so afraid of hurting her brother she let him do as he please, as she let out a soft moan. After few moments, Adrian let go of her lips, both had ragged breathing and flushed face as they look at each other.
