Although they didn't speak about it, both of them understood that they didn't want just a fake relationship.
Thus, they both considered that their relationship had been upgraded to a real couple. Moreover, since everyone already thought that they were a real couple, there wasn't any major problem for them.
"Yale, Lina, are you awake? It is already lunch time."
Ronragruk reduced his size to a human one and entered into the room finding that Yale and Lina were kissing each other.
Both of them remained like that for several hours, but several hours was just a short time for an Essence God, so they didn't even notice it.
Ronragruk immediately regretted having opened the door, but before he could speak, everything under his neck turned into ice, and he had a sword in the neck.
Yale was holding the Essence Slayer Sword while threatening to cut Ronragruk's neck, and given the level of the sword, it was impossible for Ronragruk to survive if Yale were to make a move to cut his head.
Lina was standing beside Yale with an icy expression while looking at Ronragruk, who she had frozen almost to death.
Yale and Lina controlled themselves enough to avoid killing Ronragruk on the spot, but Ronragruk was already scared to death.
"Why did I open the door? I should have just spoken from outside. No, since I would have interrupted them anyway, my fate would have been the same."
Thinking about that, Ronragruk sighed and didn't try to say any excuses as he felt that acting like that would only worsen the situation.
"Ronragruk, don't you know that it is impolite entering in the room of your guests, especially if such guests are a couple?"
Yale's voice was monotone as he was suppressing his killing intent. He had been enjoying his time with Lina a lot, so he was extremely angry for having been interrupted.
However, since it was also thanks to Ronragruk that they solved the misunderstandings between them, Yale decided to restrain himself and just scare Ronragruk.
Lina was in a similar situation, so she didn't freeze Ronragruk completely. In fact, she hadn't coordinated with Yale at all, but unconsciously they acted together with perfect harmony to the point that Ronragruk felt that they planned that attack together.
"I know, but I forgot! Please forgive me! I know this isn't an excuse, but I just wanted to tell you that the lunch was ready."
Ronragruk only explained himself after Yale had asked, but he didn't know if Yale would forgive him or not.
They were friends, so Ronragruk felt that Yale should forgive him, but he also knew that Yale was heartless when he was angry.
"Never do this again. You must respect the intimacy of your guests especially if your guests could kill you in an instant."
They were just kissing, but if Ronragruk did the same towards a married a couple who were as strong ad Yale and Lina, probably they wouldn't be just kissing, and Ronragruk would have met his end for peeping.
"I don't dare!"
Ronragruk knew that Yale and Lina could have killed him before he even noticed it, so he wouldn't do the same even if someone threatened him.
"Lina, unfreeze him."
After Yale spoke while retreating his sword, Lina immediately unfroze Ronragruk.
"Let's go to eat. I hope it is a delicacy or else I don't mind adding dragon ice cream to the menu, or maybe dragon steak."
Lina spoke while joking, but Ronragruk felt cold sweat while hearing that.
Although Lina acted lovely while being with Yale, she was ruthless to those who offend her, and Ronragruk wasn't her friend, so she only forgave him for Yale's sake.
"Ronragruk, you go ahead. We will follow you in a while."
Seeing that Lina was ready to turn Ronragruk in a meal, he decided that it was better for Ronragruk to leave first.
Ronragruk noticed Yale's meaning so he fled from that room as fast as he could.
"You have been too soft with him. He ruined our kiss..."
For Lina, Yale's kiss was far more important than the lunch since at her level she didn't need to eat at all.
"Later, we can kiss as much as we want in any of our private dimensions where no one can interrupt us. Now we should go to eat, or someone else would interrupt us again."
Yale kissed Lina again, but it was just a short kiss.
"You are right. That is a great idea. I love you!"
Lina hugged Yale in happiness as she still couldn't believe that they turned into a real couple. If before meeting Yale someone had told her that she would feel like that for a man, she would have thought that the other party was crazy.
"I love you too."
Yale was also extremely happy at that moment. The only problem he had was that without rescuing his father first, he couldn't advance more his relationship with Lina.
Yale's father already accepted Lina, and given the friendship he had with Lina's father, it was easy to guess that Lina's father wouldn't put any inconvenience to their relationship.
However, if Yale were to marry Lina before rescuing his father, probably his mother will end being angry towards his father, and Yale didn't want to see that happening.
They went to eat without saying anything about their incident with Ronragruk, but Lina felt that the meal wasn't good enough for having interrupted them. Fortunately, she remembered that she could have private time with Yale later, so she didn't act against Ronragruk.
"Shirk, Driwna, will you two remain here, or do you want to come with us back to the eastern continent?"
They already knew that the journey was over and there was no way they could follow Yale after that, so they weren't surprised by Yale's words.
"I want to meet again with prince Sebe first. I think that I will probably return to the eastern continent, but I want to comment it with him."
Shirk and Driwna had already spoken about the topic and decided to go back to the eastern continent. However, they felt that Sebe should give them permission first.
Of course, there was no need for them to ask permission from Sebe as long as Yale agreed with them since no one in the eastern continent would dare to go against Yale's will, but given how much Shirk valued Sebe, he felt that he should ask him first.
"Alright. Return to Lina's world for now. We are leaving the tribe now."
Yale could guess Shirk's intentions, so Shirk's worlds were a confirmation that he was going back to the eastern continent because there was no way that Shirk would oppose to that.
Yale and Lina left the tribe of the Dragon Race after announcing that they were under their protection and bidding farewell to everyone.
"The barrier those two set to isolate themselves is quite strong, but it is useless against us."
Lina chuckled while flying at top speed beside Yale.
"We will probably interrupt them as Ronragruk interrupted us, but my sister-in-law isn't an Essence God yet, so she needs to be more patient."
Since his relationship with Lina was firm, Yale had no problems calling Lina's sister like that.
Given the prowess of the barrier, it was impossible to teleport inside or enter it without breaking it unless the ones inside gave them permission, but Yale disregarded that and used the World's Authority to appear inside the barrier while holding Lina in his arms.
Of course, if someone asked Yale, he would say that having Lina in his arms was just to show everyone their relationship and that didn't have any relationship to his wish of having Lina in his arms.
When Yale and Lina appeared inside the barrier, those who were inside were left with their mouths open.
Kermu and Serka were hugging each other while kissing and not too far from them, Lina's sister and Yale's disciple were doing the same.
As they guessed, they interrupted them when they appeared, but they didn't care at all since the other party didn't open the barrier for them to expand more their intimacy time.
The only ones who didn't notice that they appeared were George, Zack, and Sammie because the latter was hearing the explanations of the other two regarding training, so they didn't notice what happened at all.
Sebe, who was training alone with his eyes closed, noticed their presence instantaneously together with the change of faces of the two couples.
After all, Sebe had been quite tired of having those couples being lovely every day while he was still single.
However, when he noticed that Yale was holding Lina in his arms, he was depressed once again.
"Even Yale seems to have a girlfriend now... Why I have such bad luck..."
Sebe couldn't avoid thinking that after ten years of enduring being together with two lovely couples.
George and Zack were also quite tired of it, but they focused on taking care of Sammie and acted as her teachers, so they were more distracted and paid less attention to the couples.
Of course, the two couples interrupted by the sudden apparition of Yale and Lina stood up due to the shame they felt.
They had turned the whole area into their love nest, and they didn't mind hugging and kissing in public at all, but letting Yale and Lina saw them was far too embarrassing.
