’So it seems that from Level 20 to Level 21, I gained 160 Attribute Points,’ Enzo thought after calculating how much his stats had increased.
He couldn’t have been more satisfied.
His strength had more than doubled.
Violet continued walking back toward the Sanctuary.
On her second day, she had already surpassed Level 20. There was no reason to rush into anything now.
What interested him more was gathering more hundred-year-old wine. He only needed six tons more since he still had four tons stored away.
But there were no more cemeteries like the one in Z City.
His only option was another city.
New York might be the best choice. After all, Sanctuary 1 was connected to New York.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Enzo!"
Enzo’s thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door.
It turned out to be Bella.
He had no choice but to open the door, only to find the woman drenched in sweat, her clothes covered in tears, and patches of blood staining her body.
"You?" Enzo was stunned.
This clearly wasn’t just from fighting Goblins.
"You went down to the lower floors?" he asked.
"Of course. If I stayed here, my level wouldn’t increase fast enough." The woman answered proudly. "By the way, I want to take a shower, but the public bathroom is full. I’ll use yours."
After announcing what she wanted, the woman simply walked inside and hurried into the bathroom.
Enzo scratched his hair.
But he couldn’t dwell on it right now.
Violet was already close to the Sanctuary, so he controlled her and had her enter the Sanctuary immediately.
After taking a shower, Bella would probably rest here considering how exhausted she was.
That meant he couldn’t freely control Violet.
Since Bella would likely be taking a long shower, especially after getting so dirty, Enzo decided to send Violet to the outpost.
As long as he brought her back to him, Violet would be completely safe.
When Violet arrived at the Sanctuary, Enzo saw Charlotte emerge from the portal alone.
It was the Z City portal.
But he didn’t have time to observe her. He controlled Violet into the Monster Prison before opening the door of his outpost for her.
And just like that, Violet disappeared from his sight.
Enzo felt relieved afterward.
Of course, even without Bella’s interruption, this had already been his plan.
For him, relaxing wasn’t merely something he wanted. It was still a necessity.
After sitting down on the mattress, he lay back.
Normally, he often lay down when he wasn’t sleeping, playing games on his phone. But lately, he had been spending most of his time sitting.
Click!
The bathroom door opened, accompanied by Bella’s relieved sigh.
Enzo instinctively looked over.
His eyes trembled, and his body spontaneously sat upright.
The woman had wrapped nothing but a towel around herself, allowing her blond hair to cascade down.
Considering she had a Storage Artifact, she obviously had plenty of spare clothes. She could have easily changed inside the bathroom.
"What’s wrong with your eyes, Enzo? You looked sleepy earlier." Bella asked with a faint smile.
"Are you planning to walk around wearing nothing but a towel?" Enzo replied.
"You..." The woman froze when she heard that.
"How wonderful your imagination is. Do you really think I’m crazy enough to put on a show like that?" She pouted.
"You should be thanking me for helping you refresh your eyes," she added.
Enzo couldn’t deny that this was certainly refreshing for his eyes.
His eyes seemed to have lost the desire to blink as he stared at the alluring body and its captivating, flawless pale skin.
Among the women he knew, Bella was almost the sexiest, second only to Rebecca. Of course, as they continued to grow older, the two would eventually become equals.
Enzo could only blame his eyes for failing to hide his thoughts.
After all, they were merely cousins who had ended up living under the same roof as adults, which only made things more complicated.
Enzo didn’t know what to say.
But he wasn’t sure whether there was genuine attraction between them or whether Bella was simply playing around with him.
Lately, the woman had become much bolder.
It seemed unlikely that she was merely joking around.
Of course, after graduating from high school and entering adulthood, people naturally tended to stop holding themselves back.
Yes... because holding back really was difficult.
Buzz!
Bella waved her hand, sending droplets of water that hadn’t yet dried from her palm flying straight into Enzo’s face, snapping him out of his confused thoughts.
"Are you challenging me?" Enzo asked, his eyes turning sharp and his voice carrying a hint of anger.
His pride felt wounded at being treated like this without fighting back.
"Wasn’t I already challenging you?" Bella replied. "Hmph, you’re too timid. If someone else were my cousin, I might have been eaten alive a long time ago."
Enzo, "..."
His lips parted.
Bella had actually said something like that.
His head and body grew hot.
He stood up and immediately pulled the woman into his arms.
Actually, he didn’t know how to be with a woman.
He had no experience. But all he could think about was holding that sexy body close.
It turned out to feel so good.
The softness of Bella’s body left him breathless.
He pushed her up against the wall, burying his face in her cheek.
No matter what happened, the important thing was that he could give in to his desire to hold her.
And to his surprise, he immediately felt Bella’s arms wrap around him in return.
She held him just as tightly.
This only added to the comforting sensation he was feeling.
He couldn’t help but stare at the woman’s face, which had turned quite red.
As he looked at her, she smiled, almost like a smirk.
"Do you feel comfortable?" she asked.
Of course, very comfortable. But Enzo felt it was embarrassing to say so.
He wanted to run his fingers through his hair, but now both his hands were wrapped around Bella’s body. He felt he couldn’t let go.
His gaze fell on her red, sexy lips.
What would it feel like to kiss a woman’s lips?
That question clouded his mind.
However, having come this far, he wasn’t so afraid anymore.
His lips moved toward Bella’s until they met.
Bella didn’t pull away at all; instead, she pressed her lips against his as well.
In an instant, their lips pressed against each other and sucked on one another simultaneously.
Enzo immediately became aggressive because he could no longer control himself, but Bella was just as aggressive.
Enzo’s hands went wild, touching her thighs—the ones he’d often stared at.
He caressed her thighs with quick, up-and-down movements.
All of this was truly incredible.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
The knocking on the door startled them both and sent shivers down their spines.
Enzo’s face went pale; he felt as if he’d been hit hard in the head, while Bella’s eyes looked as if she were in a rage.
Enzo was stunned all over again when he saw who was knocking on the door.
