System's POV - Chapter 1366

Chapter 1366: The Trial Of The Saintess [Part 1]
When morning came, Thirteen realized his face pressing against something soft.

Still half-asleep, he buried himself in that softness, automatically assuming that one of his lovers had hugged him through the night.

However, a few seconds later, he remembered that his lovers were not with him, which made him snap his eyes wide open.

‘Don’t tell me…’ Thirteen thought as he carefully pulled his head away from that soft place he had used as a pillow a while ago.

Seeing Stella’s beautiful face, Thirteen realized that he ended up on the same bed as her.

He hurriedly glanced at the original couch he had slept on, but to his surprise, it wasn’t there.

In fact, they weren’t even in the room they were assigned to. They were currently in an unfamiliar place, which made him frown.

But that wasn’t all. He also noticed that he was only wearing his boxer shorts, and his clothes were nowhere to be found.

Even Tiona was not with him, which didn’t sit well with him.

After carefully observing his surroundings, Thirteen assumed that they were in some kind of cave.

There were some glowing crystals embedded on the wall, illuminating his surroundings.

‘Where are we?’ Thirteen thought. ‘And how did we get here without noticing anything?’

Thirteen might be a deep sleeper, but his body could detect danger and would kick up his alertness, waking him up.

This was why he had no idea how they ended up in a place he had no recollection about.

Suddenly, he sensed Stella about to wake up and glanced in her direction.

She was no longer wearing the clothes she had worn when she slept that night. Instead, she was left with only a white, one-piece night gown that highlighted the curves of her body.

Thirteen wasn’t an innocent young man who had never seen a naked lady in the past. In fact, he could now be considered as a veteran who had fought many battles. Some battles, he won. Some battles, he was overwhelmed by his lovers.

Regardless of whether he won or not, it was an experience that he had started to think of as something sacred, for he was with the ladies who loved him very much.

If it were any other guy who found themselves in his current situation, they might have already clasped their hands in prayer and thanked the Gods for the meal right in front of them.

“Good morning,” Thirteen greeted the young lady, who was finally awake.

“Good morning,” Stella replied by reflex before closing her eyes to sleep once more. However, a few seconds later, she opened her eyes abruptly before propping herself up from the bed.

“Where… what… huh?!” Stella seemed to have lost the ability to form coherent words as she looked at Thirteen, who was only wearing his underwear, and herself, who was only wearing a nightgown that didn’t belong to her.

After seeing her reaction, Thirteen felt lucky that he was the one that woke up first.

If Stella was the first to open her eyes, the situation might have spiraled out of control.

“What happened?” Stella asked after finally regaining her composure.

She had checked her body and realized that aside from wearing a nightgown that didn’t belong to her, she wasn’t feeling any pain or soreness.

Her mothers had told her about their experiences during their first night with her father, so she was certain that nothing happened between her and Zion.

Also, she knew what kind of young man he was.

If Zion were someone who went after every beautiful lady he laid his eyes on, the number of lovers he had might even surpass her father’s harem.

Zion Leventis might not be the most handsome boy in the world, but his popularity and influence surpassed everyone else’s, including the well-known Hero, Roland, who was now engaged to the succubus princess, Princess Laventia.

“I don’t know what happened,” Thirteen replied to Stella’s question. “When I woke up, we were already here.”

Stella frowned, believing that she would easily awaken if there had been the slightest sign of danger in her surroundings.

So, finding herself in this situation was a first for her.

“I don’t know how we got here, but I have to say that their planning was quite impressive,” Thirteen said.

“Do you think they spiked out food?” Stella asked.

“That’s possible, but I didn’t sense anything unusual when we were eating,” Thirteen replied.

While he didn’t rule out the possibility that they were drugged through their meal, he believed that the chances of this happening was very low.

Everyone had eaten the same thing, and even if anything happened, he would definitely sense something beforehand.

Tiona also had an uncanny ability to sense poison or anything similar, so drugging their food wouldn’t work on them.

Just as the two pondered on what to do next, they heard a familiar voice echo throughout the enclosed cave that they were in.

“Good morning. I hope the two of you had a good rest. I’m sure Zion did. After all, he slept like a baby last night.”

After hearing the term “slept like a baby,” Thirteen subconsciously glanced at Stella’s chest.

He was no longer innocent and understood that he had some… quirks whenever he was asleep with his lovers.

Stella looked at him in confusion, as if asking why he was looking at her chest.

Thirteen shook his head before staring at the ceiling, from seemingly where the voice sounded.

“Is this the test that you’re talking about?” Zion inquired. “The Trial of the Saintess?”

“Exactly,” Euphemia’s amused voice reached their ears. “The trial will last for a day. Both of you will be released once Stella proves that she is really the Saintess prophesied to take the Key of Lust.”

“And if she fails?” Thirteen asked. “What will you do?”

“You’ll know the answer when she fails,” Euphemia answered. “Well, then. Good luck to the two of you. Please enjoy each other’s company because it might be the last time you will experience something like it.”

A laugh echoed inside the enclosed cave, making both teenagers frown.

The trial had already begun, and yet, the two of them had no idea how Stella would be able to pass the trial that would prove that she was the Saintess of one of Pandora’s Divine Keys.
