Transmigrated Into the World of Magic and Swords

Once they stopped hugging him, Diana asked, "Handsome, can you accept me as your woman now?"

Ren didn't answer her question right away.

Sure, he admitted that special feelings for her had blossomed in his heart, but they were not strong enough to make him consider taking their relationship to the next stage.

He was afraid that without strong enough feelings, their relationship would only bring pain to them both.

"Ren, her feelings for you are real and sincere. Why don't you give her a chance?" Althea decided to help Diana for two reasons.

First, it was thanks to Diana that she could meet Ren, and lastly, she wanted Diana to be happy together with them.

"Ren, she has been chasing you for a year. Don't you think she deserves at least one chance?" Lexie added.

"We agree." Scarlett and the others nodded.

They had regarded her as their sister, so they wanted him to accept her as his woman too.

"Diana, I do have special feelings for you," Ren said gently as he looked at her. "But they are not strong enough for now."

Diana's eyes shone brightly. "It's fine. I will make these feelings grow. So, you accept me, right?"

A warm feeling spread through his chest as he saw her bright smile.

'Maybe… it could work.'

Diana had sacrificed many things just to win his heart, so she deserved a chance to be with him.

"Yes." Ren smiled softly as he nodded.

"Yay! We are finally a couple, Handsome!" Diana could not control the happiness within her, so she kissed his right cheek and jumped happily.

'After waiting a whole year… he had finally said yes.'

She was glad that all the efforts had finally paid off.

"So, when are we going to have sex, Handsome?" Diana asked with a straight face, as if she was not asking something lewd.

"Cough… Cough…" Ren was caught completely off guard by her blunt question, causing him to choke on his own breath.

"Hehe." Lexie and the others didn't tease her and only giggled softly.

"We just became a couple, and you are already asking that?" Ren gave her a wry smile. "Shouldn't we at least go on a proper date first?"

At this moment, he was amazed by her boldness because he believed no other woman would dare to ask such a question right after she became someone's lover.

"But you have already done it with everyone else, so I want to do it with you as soon as possible," Diana didn't mind skipping the usual steps because what mattered to her was experiencing the same closeness and intimacy the others had already shared with him.

"Diana, let's talk about this after we find the mysterious pool." Ren changed the topic. "So, everyone will come with me to the Flugux region, right?"

"Ren, I can't accompany you because I still have responsibilities to take care of in the new territory." Althea said in an apologetic tone.

"I also can't accompany you, Ren." Zaria said she wanted to help her mother, so she could not come with him.

"Ren, I can't leave Luna alone for too long." Actually, Lexie wanted to accompany him, but she could not leave her niece unguarded, so she reluctantly declined his invitation.

"Handsome, I will accompany you!" Diana didn't have any responsibilities like Althea, so she was free to go with him anytime.

"Me too! I will accompany you, Ren!" Scarlett added.

"Well, it can't be helped then." Ren didn't force them to accompany him because he understood their situation.

"Ren, let's merge into one." Leon uttered.

"Un." Ren nodded.

Lexie and the others paid attention to them carefully.

'They are about to merge into one.'

Like children seeing a good toy for the first time, their eyes shone brightly because they had never witnessed someone merge with their avatar before.

A Yin-Yang symbol appeared beneath their feet the moment Ren and Leon stood face to face.

The energy from the Yin-Yang symbol began to move their bodies, circling each other in perfect synchronicity.

As they spun around the glowing symbol, their bodies began to emit a golden light, and bit by bit, pieces of their forms broke away.

The glowing fragments of Ren and Leon swirled in the center of the symbol, pulled together by the Yin-Yang energy.

The symbol beneath them swirled faster and faster as the fragments collided, fused, and reshaped.

Then, from that swirling brilliance, a new body began to take form.

Head, arms, legs: each part was formed with incredible precision, as if it were sculpted by the universe itself.

Once the transformation was complete, the golden light slowly dimmed, revealing Ren standing at the center of the Yin-Yang symbol.

"Whoa! It's so cool, Handsome!" Diana stated.

"Ren, it was beautiful and amazing!" after saying that, Scarlett jumped into his arms, wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing his cheek.

Lexie and the others didn't say anything, but they nodded in agreement.

Ren smiled softly before finally shifting his gaze to Althea and Zaria. "Do you want to return now?"

Instead of answering his question, Althea asked, "When are you going to the Flugux region?"

"If you choose to return now, I will depart after sending you home." He replied. "But if you still want to spend time with me, I will go to the Flugux region tomorrow."

"Then, we will return tomorrow morning." Zaria chose not to return right away after hearing his answer.

"Yeah. I've been working hard lately, so I think I deserve a day off." Althea also wanted to be with him, so she made an excuse.

"Great! Then, let's go on a date now!" he didn't know when he would return, so he wanted to make this day special for them.

"That's a good idea!" Althea liked the idea.

Then, Ren went on a date with Lexie, Althea and Zaria.

Diana and Scarlett didn't join them because they wanted to give Lexie and the others some time alone with him.

After all, they would go to the Flugux region with him, so it was only fair to let them enjoy their moment with him.

At night, Ren held a small party in his backyard.

This time, Scarlett and Diana joined them.

At 10:00 pm, they slept in his room.

They slept with smiles on their faces because they had just had a wonderful day.

----

The following morning, Ren sent Althea and Zaria home after breakfast. Once he returned to Nightshire City, he spent time with Lexie and Luna for an hour.

After that, he went to the Flugux region with Scarlett and Diana.

Normally, it would take them at least six months to reach the Flufux region, but with his Void Steps skill, it took them less than an hour to reach their destination.

"Handsome, let's buy some food so that we won't have to eat magical beast meat every day later," Diana suggested.

"I agree!" Scarlett replied.

"Alright." He took them to the nearest city.

They bought fruits, vegetables, and chicken meat. Since they didn't know how long they would be there, they bought plenty of them and stored them in their space rings.

"Done! Let's head to the graveyard of thousands of magical beasts now." Diana said excitedly.

"Un." Scarlett nodded.

"Then, let's depart now." Ren held their hands and used the Void Steps skill again.
