The Nameless Crown
Chapter 20 - The Confession of Truth

After Lilith nodded slowly, Ryan immediately left the castle. But, he also had to bring the unconscious Elen down there. Finally Ryan released the Shadow Stalker and restored his appearance as before.

Now the dragon-shaped Shadow Stalker was carrying Elen into its circumference. Once all is under control, Ryan and Lilith leave the castle at the same time Elen is being carried by the Shadow Stalker.

Kastel—Dungeon Castle of Monochrome began to rumble and slowly collapsed. All the Players who fought there also escaped the destruction of the Dungeon. Along with the Dungeon, the kingdom there began to experience the same destruction.

The ground trembled, the houses shattered, even the entire acreage along the eye of the beholder slowly began to disappear.

It was at that time that all the Players participating in the Castle of Monochrome raid received additional Exp along with some Rare Items. Ryan is the one who gave up Vlad.

He obtained materials to strengthen his weapon. Since the collapse of the Dungeon, issues about night riders have been stirring. Because a Player accidentally saw a man flying at night carrying a beautiful woman who had never been seen.

Because the issues have spread widely. Unique player-palyer starts their action. If Elen is Player 05 then the rest is 01, 02, 03, 04, 06 and of course 07.

Ryan took Elen to a safe place and handed him some Items for helping him. He might be surprised to find out that Ryan's race has turned into a [Half-Vampire].

However, Ryan is very happy to get to know Elen. The player who became Ryan's first friend, Ryan finally sent a friend request for him. As he fell asleep, he quickly left the place.

As he left, a hand embraced his body from behind.the softness of his skin, the scent of his, the charm of his as well as the affectionate face appeared to the right of Ryan's face.

“What's Lilith?”

“Not for now we also have to find an inn~”

Ryan gulped his own spit. In his view, women like this are very aggressive and can even be categorized as Psycho. However, it didn't matter if he didn't cause trouble for himself as well as his surroundings.

“Huhh... alright”

“Fufufu... I can finally rub your back~”.

“Is your mind always like that?”

“Of course. Every time we shower together, I always rub your back lovingly~”

Ryan could imagine what he was like. A half-naked woman rubbing a man's back may be a pleasure, but for him it is a torture.

Because maybe he accidentally attacked her and did it on the first night.

In the end Ryan had to tighten up his guard. Otherwise it's very dangerous. Lilith was probably the most beautiful woman he had met all this time, but it did not calm his heart.

There was still a little doubt as to why Ryan had become a little cold to him. Whatever it may be Ryan is still looking for the real answer. Though it hurts, he will accept it.

“If I told you to be naked would you do it?”

“Hmm. Hehehe... yes, do you want us to do it here? Now either?~”

The flirtatious and seductive tone made Ryan stick his palm to his own face. It's totally beyond belief.

Ryan sighed as he was worried how it would be if Lilith fell into the wrong hands.

Meanwhile Lilith clasped Ryan's neck and pressed her body against Ryan's.

“ So how?~ want to do it here?”

Ryan's right hand was raised. Then a powerful jolt landed on Lilith's forehead. Lilith flinched and stayed away for a while. However, when it returned to how it was, he buried his face in the chest of Ryan's field.

“Please don't leave me a second time... Ash.”

His flirtatious tone had disappeared and turned serious. Ryan—Ash responded with a warm hug so Lilith was closer to him.

That night they both fell asleep behind a giant tree in the forest that no ordinary player could ever reach. And it was at that time that the status of Ryan—Ash changed again, where the previous name was burned by ash fire and changed to its real name.

[Name : Ryan Angga Baskara => Ashiel Gremory]

***

A truly unfeeling night. As soon as he closed his eyes the greeting of nature began to caress the two of them.

Ash was the first to wake up. When she opened her eyes, Lilith was still in her arms.

His face was right next to his. Beautiful eyes, seductive body scent, matchless charm.

“Huhhh... It seems that it will be difficult to escape from here.”

He muttered as soon as he realized how Elen they had left in an inn. He and Lilith did not go to the inn because of Lilith's aggressive behavior.

He did not feel the cold at all because of a warm embrace of a woman nearby. Inevitably Ryan couldn't just let go of Lilith.

The birds spread so quickly. The news of the destruction of the Castle of Monochrome quickly moved ears. Not just morale and strength.

Players all over the small park began to expand and attack the two pillars. After finishing it they turned to the floor boss.

Ash thought about his real name. When Lilith whispered the name in her ear, she did not expect it to make her realize, that all this time her life in the real world was not as real as she thought.

It's not just Anna and Dawn. But all this time they were just an illusion that someone had created to limit Ash's movements all along. Oz, the past that haunts him is “dia” who has been inside his body all this time.

He also helps Ash to discover who he really is. He also knows that Ash's true existence is not just living a normal life. However, its existence aims to decode the fairy hidden inside the deepest layer “Taman Kecil”

“Huhh.., password for fairies. Is that what makes my existence mean?”

In his mind now Ash kept thinking about it. He knew all of this thanks to Lilith. His facial sharpness began to harden with thought, then a delicate touch touched his cheek very gently.

In shock, Ash squeezed and started glancing at the awakened Lilith. She is smiling small

“Why do you make such facial features, Ash?”

“Ahh... no, it's just—“

“Have you not been able to accept your own existence, huh?”

“Not that. but, this is too sudden, and everything seems like a dream. Anyway why should I do it?”

Lilith wakes up and puts herself in Ash's lap. Now they face each other with faces. Lilith slowly began to embrace Ash's neck back.

“If you don't want it, then you just have to turn it down. Avoiding it would be better than just hurting yourself.”

Ash sighed then took it back out slowly.

“...what I'm thinking about right now is why did you choose me?”

Lilith could only smile a little at hearing that.

“That's because only you accept me, nothing else. Even though other people see me like a monster. Only you can see me as a woman. I'm happy, because the first time my existence became so important, and there was someone who wanted me”

“Only that?”

Lilith shook her head slowly.

“Not only that, but we have also been bound by a contract, though in fact I am immortal. However, if you are gone, then I will come with you.”

Lilith gently revealed her dark reddish black dress to reveal her belly.

There is a dark circle. That dark circle is a sign the contract has been successfully done, besides that too. The contract can connect feelings to each other. If the dominant feels the concussion then the receiver will also feel it.

“T-wait ... what do you do, quickly close back!”

His white thighs were clearly visible. Ash was startled and covered his eyes, but Lilith stopped him and looked at Ash as if saying “See me, it was only for you that I became like this”.

Lilith ripped Ash's shirt off quickly. On the chest of his field, he also had a dark circle that he had obtained from Vlad. However, it was actually a contractual quirk with Lilith.

“See? This is what unites us, even though it was originally a compulsion, but I'm glad you found me in that room, Ash~”

He smiled with happiness, but Ash listened silently. As soon as he remembered something, Ash opened his mouth—

“Are you ‘real?’ or is it ‘illusion?’... “

Lilith pensively pensively, such a statement made her little heart ache once. However, he had decided on it since their first meeting.

He smiled sincerely again....

“Of course I—“

When the birds in the morning fly towards the clear sky. Under the tree Lilith kissed Ryan. He did not want that what he was going through with him to be wiped out in vain.

“—‘Real’ .... And I never get tired of doing it, Ash,” he said softly.
