An Extra’s POV

"Uwaaahhh! It feels so good to finally feel your touch again, Master!"

The warmness of Emil's voice, and the jiggly feeling her slimy body had as it rubbed against him made Rey laugh. He couldn't deny that it felt good to have her optimistic voice echo in his ears—the same voice he considered annoying in the past.

Somehow, losing the Symbiote Slime made him realize just how much he cherished her.

"It feels good here, too." He gave an honest reply to Emil's words, causing her to giggle loudly. He felt her body rub off against him even more, and he let her have her fun. He didn't even care that this was happening in front of an entire population of Elves. The current Rey would do anything to spoil Emil for her accomplishments.

'I definitely won't hold back on appreciating her this time.'

"Hehehehehe! Master loves Emil!" Well, there were things Rey thought he would have to clarify, but for the most part… he felt things were still within control. As long as his Slime didn't have any strange ideas, he didn't really mind whatever she said.

He instinctively stole a glance at Esme, not really knowing why, and he found that her gaze was not on him. Something about that made his heart sink, but also relieved.

"What's wrong, Master?"

"I really need to teach you about filters!" He found himself whispering rather viciously at the Slime.

"That's not the only thing I want you to teach me, Master. Hehehehe…"
