Chapter 302: Marking His Underlings
Ren didn't kiss her right away and threw another question at her. "Are you sure about this?"
Diana sat on his lap and put her hands on his shoulders. "Yes."
Ren wrapped his arms around her slender waist and brought his face closer to hers.
*Kiss…
In less than five seconds, their lips met.
Diana felt like electricity was running through her entire body when he pressed his lips against hers, since she had been waiting for this moment for more than a year.
'We finally have our first kiss.'
Her heart throbbed with happiness, and her fingers dug slightly into his shoulders, savoring every second of their kiss.
At this moment, she felt like she was the happiest woman in the world because the man she loved was kissing her.
"Hehe. Handsome, my mind went to cloud nine earlier." she smiled happily after he broke the kiss.
"Happiness also filled my heart when we kissed." He was not lying when he said this.
He could even feel his feelings for her growing stronger as if she were pouring fuel into his flame of love.
'So, the saying was true. Kissing really can make feelings grow.'
He suddenly remembered the saying from his previous life.
"Handsome, how about we have our French kiss too?" of course, she still remembered where they were, but she didn't care about it since many couples cuddled in that place.
"No." he refused instantly. "This is not the right place for that."
Diana pouted her lips.
"Let's have our first deep kiss when we are alone or when we are in a hotel room." He planned to stay in Ashvalen City for three days since they could return to Nightshire City whenever they wanted.
"Un." Diana nodded instantly.
'A passionate kiss in a private place could easily lead to the next stage. Sounds like the perfect plan for my first time with Handsome.'
The image of an intimate moment between them suddenly emerged in her mind, causing her heart to flutter uncontrollably.
"Handsome, I love you!" She cupped his handsome face and pressed her lips against his.
"I'm back!" Scarlett acted normally when she saw them kissing on the lips since Diana was also his girlfriend now.
Diana stopped the kiss and turned to Scarlett. "Sister Scarlett, did you get the sausages I asked for?"
"Here?" Scarlett handed over two big grilled sausages to her.
"Thank you." Diana smiled happily.
While Ren was having a good moment with Scarlett and Diana, in the main hall of the Heavenly Beast Kingdom, Leon talked with Velmira and the four generals.
Velmira and the others were shocked when they saw his red hair and golden eyes.
But what surprised them most was that a powerful dragon was standing behind him like a royal bodyguard.
They knew he went somewhere to find something, but they didn't expect him to return with a powerful dragon.
"Everyone, he is Zeyrix Drakonhart." Leon introduced him to them. "As you can see, he is from the dragon race like me."
"My king, where did you go? And how did you meet him?" Zareth asked curiously.
"Well, a lot of things happened. In short, I went somewhere to awaken my bloodline." Leon was too lazy to explain everything in detail, so he only told them the gist.
"Hmm? Bloodline? Is that the reason why the color of your hair and eyes changed?" Velmira asked.
"Yes," Leon replied.
"You all should be grateful to become His Majesty's followers because His Majesty also awakened the Mark of Divinity." Zeyrix boasted of Leon's limitless future. "That means His Majesty has a high chance of becoming the Ruler of this world."
Leon sighed when Zeyrix revealed it since he planned to hide it.
"My apologies, Your Majesty!" Zeyrix realized his mistake when he noticed it.
"My king, what is the Mark of Divinity? From its name, it sounds divine and rare." Fyre asked curiously.
Velmira and the others also paid attention to him because they also wanted to know about it.
Since Leon had no other choice, he decided to explain it. "Mark of Divinity is…"
He told them what it was and the power it granted.
Halvrik and the other generals widened their eyes in surprise and disbelief when Leon revealed the benefits of the Mark of Divinity.
When Leon finished explaining everything, Fyre immediately shouted, "My king, please mark me with your Mark of Divinity."
"We also wish you would share the marks with us, My King." Hyzi and the others said in unison.
At this moment, only Velmira remained silent.
Of course, she was also interested in Mark of Divinity.
However, she didn't ask him to mark her like Zareth and the others did because she wanted him to offer it on his own.
"Are you sure about this? The mark won't disappear forever once I mark you." Leon also told them that the mark could help him deal with them if they betrayed him.
"My King, we have pledged our loyalty to you, and we will follow you for the rest of our lives." Halvrik didn't mind it since he had decided to follow him forever.
"Then, I will do it now." Leon lifted both of his index fingers and shared the mark with them.
Just like what happened to Zeyrix, the mark strengthened, reshaped, and purified their bloodlines and physiques.
Fyre and the others almost could not control the happiness within them when the transformation was complete since they could see the difference right away.
"My body feels so much lighter and stronger!"
"Me too. It's like I've been reborn."
"My bloodline and physique… they have improved drastically."
"I can feel power flowing in my body."
They instantly knelt on one knee before Leon.
"Thank you for the generous gift, My King." They said in unison.
"Go and clean yourself," Leon said.
"Understood." They instantly went to their bathrooms to clean their bodies.
"Elder Zeyrix, there are plenty of empty chambers here," Leon said. "Have one of the maids guide you. You're welcome to choose whichever suits you best."
"Understood, Your Majesty." Zeyrix bowed slightly before leaving the main hall.
Once Zeyrix left, Leon turned to Velmira. "Velmira, do you want me to mark you too?"
