An hour later,
The waitress spotted Aether and Delphine descending the stairs, her eyes widening as she took in the sight of them.
Her face instantly flushed a deep red as she quickly averted her gaze, her heart pounding in her chest, ‘They’re too much!; she thought.
“Excuse me, Miss!” Aether called out, his voice now haughty and cold, sending a shiver down the waitress’s spine.

“Yes, Dadd—ahem, I mean, yes, sir!” she stammered, her face flushing even more as she struggled to maintain her composure.
“Here’s the payment,” Aether said, handing her a substantial amount of money. The waitress nodded, her cheeks still red as she calculated the remaining balance with trembling hands. She was about to give back the change when,
“Keep it as a tip,” Aether said, his tone leaving no room for discussion as he turned to leave.
“B-But sir, it’s really a large amo—”
“I said keep it!” Aether’s voice was firm, his gaze intense, pinning her in place.
“Yes, Daddy—arrh—I mean, yes, sir!!” the waitress bowed deeply, her face a deep shade of red.
She glanced at the woman in Aether’s arms, who was being carried like a child, ‘I wish I was her…’ she thought wistfully before returning to her duties, her heart fluttering with the strange mix of embarrassment and longing.
Meanwhile,
“A-ethe….r…” Delphine quietly mumbled, her face so red it was practically glowing with shame and embarrassment. She couldn’t believe she was being carried like a child, cradled in Aether’s strong arms…. even more, Aether’s coat was on her shoulder as if he was shielding her from the cold.

“Hmm? What is it, Delphine? Didn’t you have enough? Should we go to another restaurant? Or do you need to use the restroom?” Aether asked, his eyes hazy from the wine, his cheeks flushed, as he scanned the area for any nearby restrooms.

‘Arrhhh!!’ Delphine screamed inwardly as she clung to him like a koala, her face buried in his chest to hide her burning embarrassment. “No, I just want to walk on my own!” she insisted, her voice tinged with a mix of frustration and embarrassment.
After Aether had gotten drunk, she had feared that he might mess with her, tease her mercilessly, or worse fuck her brains out, but to her surprise, he had done nothing of the sort. Instead, he had spoiled her…
Yes, he had fed her food like a child!
And now, he was taking her home, refusing to let her walk, carrying her as if she were the most precious thing in the world.
Aether shook his head, his voice strict and cold. “No, that’s not good. You ate too much; it would be painful to walk immediately.” He resumed his walk, his hold on her gentle yet firm, his steps steady as he carried her down the street.
“Grrr!” Delphine could only growl in frustration and embarrassment, grateful that she had deployed an invisible barrier as soon as they stepped out of the restaurant. Otherwise, she would have been the laughingstock of the city!
…Though, to be honest, she liked being spoiled.
But she was never going to acknowledge that!
Never!
Seeing that her attempts at persuasion weren’t working, Delphine sighed, finally resigning herself to her fate. She hugged him gently, closing her eyes as she rested her head comfortably on his shoulder. Despite her embarrassment, there was something undeniably comforting about being held like this, something that made her feel safe and cherished.
“Hah…” Aether chuckled warmly, glancing down at her peaceful, sleeping face. He couldn’t help but smile as he kissed her forehead softly before continuing his walk, his heart feeling light and content.
As they walked, his shadow flickered.
Delphine noticed it immediately, her senses were always attuned to their surroundings. ‘That maid…’ she thought, her mind flashing to the ever-watchful presence that usually accompanied Aether.
‘Thank goodness she didn’t follow him into the restaurant,’ she thought with a grateful expression. The last thing she needed was another set of eyes witnessing her embarrassment tonight.
But as they continued down the quiet street, Delphine couldn’t help but let her mind wander back to the events of the evening. Her heart still raced with the memory of what had happened between them, the way she had lost herself in the moment, the way Aether had looked at her with such intensity, such desire, she flower trembled in excitement…
She shivered, not from the cold, but from the lingering heat of those memories.
Her panties were still wet… just remembering his hard shaft made it tremble again…

‘Maybe… just maybe… I am a little bit of a pervert,’ she admitted to herself, her cheeks flushing once more, though this time it wasn’t just from embarrassment.
But she quickly pushed the thought away, burying it deep within her, ‘No! I’m not!’
And yet, as Aether carried her home, his steady heartbeat thrumming against her ear, she couldn’t deny the warmth that spread through her, the way her heart seemed to flutter every time he held her a little tighter.
Maybe being spoiled wasn’t so bad after all!!

“Wait? Home?” Delphine flinched awake, her heart pounding as she realized the disorienting situation she was in.
She blinked, “It’s Academy!!” she shouted in panic…. She totally forgot her house was inside the academy!
Academy where many students and professors presented!!
Aether, his head still swirling from the effects of the wine, glanced at her with a dizzy, unfocused gaze, “Yes, it’s the Academy,” he said, pointing toward the imposing gate….. now shrouded in a mysterious, ominous dome.
Delphine’s eyes widened in disbelief, “What the…”
She abruptly pushed herself away from Aether’s embrace and stood up, looking around with a mix of confusion and alarm.
She looked at the Academy, which was obscured by the dome, and then at the guards posted outside. Her gaze fell upon the grotesque sight of the guards… each one missing their heads. Since it was night, the surroundings were dimly lit, making the scene even more unsettling.
“What’s going on?” she mumbled, her voice filled with disbelief and rising anxiety.
She took tentative steps towards the massive gate, her curiosity overcoming her initial shock. As she reached out to push the gate open, she was forcefully pushed back. Frowning deeply, she braced herself and pushed again, exerting more force, but to no avail.
Just as she was about to use her powers when
“No!” Celestia’s voice rang out sharply as she appeared, blocking Delphine’s path.
“Huh?” Delphine frowned in confusion as Celestia pointed towards the dome.
The darkness of the night made it difficult for Delphine to see clearly, but as she squinted and focused, her eyes widened in horror.
Inside the dome, the scene was one of macabre chaos…. bloodstains and the lifeless bodies of inner guards, their heads also missing, just like the outer guards.
“I think….. something terrible is going on inside,” Celestia’s voice was stern and urgent as she assessed the situation. Her gaze shifted to Aether, who was inexplicably dancing in the middle of the street with a carefree demeanour as if he couldn’t care less about anything.
Until,
!~Ding~!
[Mission: Save and Seduce Helena Sunfire]
The message blinked furiously on the screen and,
THUNDER!!!
The sudden crack of thunder echoed through the night…. Delphine’s eyes went wide with fear and disbelief as her breath came in short, sharp gasps.
Her vision was unfolding before her very eyes…. The Death of everyone!!
