"Beautiful? I have always dreamed of traveling the world," Akira muttered in a low voice, but it traveled all the way to Nox, who was standing several feet apart from the edge of the lake.

Nox noticed that her posture was much more relaxed and that she was even more exposed now. Her upper torso was in the air, with strands of water sliding down her toned body.

Nox maintained his eyes on her face, not daring to glance below. He wondered how she could be this bold. If it were a female in the human domain, Nox was 99 percent sure they would have hurriedly covered themselves up.

But this... this Akira girl was a different case entirely. It seemed she didn't really care if Nox feasted his eyes on her generous chest.

With a bit more thinking, Nox realized that this was because the Valkyries didn't follow the same logic as humans. The Valkyries were often depicted as a warrior race, forged by centuries of battle and a culture where strength mattered far more than modesty. Their priorities were entirely different. To them, the body was a vessel of power, not something to be hidden or shielded from gazes. A sign of confidence, not vulnerability.

"Also, they probably walk around naked among each other and she's already used to it. Or is it that they don't know the concept of shame?"

"Could you describe it for me?" Akira's voice didn't sound fierce anymore. It was much softer, sweet, and pleasing to the ears—calm and steady, almost soothing.

If he hadn't stayed around a beauty like Eve, the Necromancer, Nox was certain he'd be struggling to keep his attention on Akira's face and not succumb to his lustful urges that were like the devil whispering to him to take a sneaky look.

Nox was no saint... don't forget he had come to this world practicing self-care.

"Uh, we have two genders," was the first thing that came out of Nox's mouth. "We have males and females, just like the way we are," he said, pointing at the two of them.

Akira furrowed her brows; her expression was extremely serious, as if she was about to listen to a great scholar.

"We have six different kingdoms in the human domain. There's the Vermilion Kingdom, Snowhelm, Valeria, Imperia, Aetherai, and Tristan Kingdom."

"We have only a single city here," Akira chimed in, her clear voice filled with disdain. "Our closest neighbors are the giants. But even to go see those ugly things, we have to travel for a month or more."

Akira's big eyes were glinting with fascination at the mere thought of having more than one kingdom with the same race of people.

Sometimes, she felt the Valkyries might go extinct because of their relatively small numbers, but she doubted that would happen to the humans.

Then a thought struck her. The Valkyries weren't really on good terms with their distant neighbors, the giants. She wondered if humans were like that with each other.

Ignoring Akira's interruption, Nox continued, "Also, unlike your race, we are not restricted to the holy paladin class."

Nox then proceeded to summon Solora, who quickly came out of the shimmering blue portal, wrapping herself around Nox's neck in a protective manner while glaring at Akira with her forked tongue dangling.

The baby blue python appeared very intimidating and cute at the same time.

"A magical beast!" Akira's senses flared as she felt the bestial aura the python emitted.

Nox gave a faint chuckle when he saw her reaction and calmly clarified, "This is my class. I'm a beast tamer. Like the class suggests, I can control beasts to do my bidding. A very powerful skill. It's never a one-on-one fight against a beast tamer. I think among all the classes in Eos, this is the best."

Towards the end, Nox sounded like a shady merchant who was about to sell his wares. After instructing Solora to do a couple of circus-like moves mid-air, Akira knitted her brows together, seriously pondering her life choices.

Did she select the wrong class?

In the pantheon of beast taming...

Terra, Rufus, along with the other gods, had an extremely proud expression on their faces.

"And we also have this concept called marriage," Nox said afterward, then raised a curious brow. "You know what they call marriage, right?"

"Yeah, but we often refer to our betrothed as partners."

"Oh, I see..." Nox nodded his head in understanding, but why did it feel as if he didn't understand at the same time? He knew he had heard perfectly well, although he didn't know why he felt something was wrong with what he heard.

It was at that moment that his eyes widened a little, and he asked, "Partner?"

"Yeah, my mom also has her own partner. When I turn 18, I'll be betrothed as well to my breeding partner."

"Breeding partner, oh, that makes more sense... For a moment, I thought you girls married each other."

"Oh, a few of our sisters actually prefer to do this than being betrothed to those disgusting giants all because of their superior bloodlines."

"So the giants are the breeding partners?" Nox frowned. Though the Valkyries were well-built, compared to giants, they were very petite. He could only imagine the pain the Valkyries would go through during the breeding process.

"No wonder Mom ran away with Dad," Nox mumbled to himself. From Akira's tone alone, Nox could tell that she disliked the giants, and the mere thought of being betrothed to one repulsed her to the core.

Nox continued speaking to Akira for some time. As time passed, although they had only known each other briefly, Akira was much more open. He realized she was actually 17 years old and already a level 50 holy paladin.

She even went as far as revealing her dream to travel the world of Eos and go on adventures. While they were talking, a powerful feminine voice soon echoed from behind.

"Princess, I have been looking for you... so this is where you are."
