Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer-Chapter 325 Our Pink Night

"You alright now?"

She took her sweet five minutes fantasizing about different 'pink' stuff after that simple backhand kiss and if not for the fact that I can practically read her thoughts just from her heartbeat, micro-movements, and this hand that has crushed mine a few times during her blackout, I wouldn't have known these depths of her… thoughts.

She looked perfectly normal now, even while knowing just what kinds of thoughts she was having just from that small kiss.

A kiss on the back of a lady's palm was a general way of greeting in this empire. But... it was different for us.

She knew, the person that has never even said 'I love you' once in these past few days they were together, and the fact that she wouldn't be hearing that for a very, very, very long time, was enough to show just how great of a thing this one small genuine kiss meant.

She didn't expect it and it was even more of a reason that those wild-wild thoughts surged without her knowing.

And she definitely enjoyed whatever absurd things happened in those fantasies of hers.

From what I can tell, in these five minutes, she definitely had lived for almost a day, doing stuff with me that came after a kiss like this.

And what comes a kiss on the back of a palm?

A kiss on some other parts of one's body, on the sacred lips, the lips on one's face, of course, the other one comes way later.

So, some long kissing, great intimacy, skinship, moans... wait. No... I'm just a twelve-year-old boy. I don't know what any of these means, ok...

So, let's ignore the fact that those things are natural in most cases and she was very good at hiding these 'pink' emotions and even better at controlling them.

She was out of that pinkland and now had a simple normal smile on her face, clearly meaning not to talk about what had just happened AT ALL.

So, in fear of getting some real beating from this happy witch who has just received a good unexpected gift, I also asked her a simple question, and she answered with that same smile.

"Yup~. Thanks for that~… may I?" she unexpectedly asked while looking at our hands, the locked ones that I kissed a while back, of course.

It was easy to understand what this girl meant and, well, why not?

So, I just nodded, and she cheerfully brought my hand closer to her marvelous lips and kissed the back of my hand... three times? f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

All three of those kisses felt different as if they all carried different meanings and actually... one of them meant devoted affection. The second and quickest one was for longevity, and the last and longest one was for eternal love.

This one surprised me. It genuinely surprised me because this wasn't something many knew, even among her own kind.

And there was no way she would have learned this on her own.

And the fact that she never told me about this... was even more surprising.

My shock was clear on my face and she knew just from this one that I knew what she just did. And... she just shook her head with a helpless smile on her face, a warm, helpless smile.

"Yes, yes. I know I never told you, but yes... I know a few things about the ancient witch traditions.

But no one actually taught me anything.

A long time ago, when I was just roaming around the deep forests of Diva on the southern end of the continent, I stumbled upon a small hut in the middle of a swamp.

As you can imagine, how curious I must have been to find a decent hut in the middle of nowhere. I checked the house, which seemed pretty normal from the outside, but... that was quite an amazing place.

The inside of that small hut was as big as one of our rooms downstairs.

And though it was modest and not much fancy, it was a pretty clean place with only a small layer of dust and two skeletons.

One was human-like, and another one was some kind of lizard species. 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎

My eyes weren't much powerful back then, or I should say that I was a lot weaker and dumber than now.

There was nothing much in that house aside from some normal jewels, elemental jewels, some good quality old books that I believe you might already have read, and a diary of maybe that lady.

Apparently, she was also a witch from what I understood from that diary, but most of the things in there were in some complicated language, so I couldn't fully understand them with my weaker eyes.

Maybe, if I see it now, I could probably understand a little better, but still, most of the things in there were in some kind of ancient language.

And, well, I already lost that diary so, can't do much about this.

The lady's name, who had definitely completed her life span and become one with nature, was something like Sabrina.

But, well, I don't remember many things from that aside from some witch culture traditions from the old times."

'wow... to think she even traveled to 'that' place and came back alive.

Her crappy luck sure is quite something.

Being low but protecting her when needed like no other.

Anyway...'

Looking at her with a sudden happy, curious, and exciting look, which made her look down in fear and hesitation, which... somewhat explained why she never told me this thing.

"Those skeletons must be because of that lizard.

Her familiar lizard preserved her physical body after her death with its own remaining life force.

If not for that, the bodies of special creatures like energy beasts and witches mostly parish a short time after their death, as you must know.

And to do such a thing, to at least preserve their physical body as its last wish, to even be able to do such a thing, that lizard must have been of earth attribute.

And a very close one to nature.

Well, anyway... Sabrina. I think I might know who that person was and if I'm right... I couldn't help but want that diary.

So… you know it's inevitable now, right?

I will help you find that one thing from your 'room of relics', so don't worry~!

We can finally sort that mountain of junk you have in that room~!"
