Reborn as an Evolving Space Monster: Harem Of Otherworldly Beauties - Chapter 229

Chapter 229: A Proposal And A Drunken Entry?
Noticing that the one she thought to have left had come back, Raya sighed and walked away once more.

‘I just drank four glasses to prepare… And now Lith is back?! Ugh… I need another glass. When will I finally be left alone with him?!’

Raya had noticed Lith from far enough away that the former hadn’t been noticed.

“Uwa…” Lith nodded, staring at the piece of jewelry that she was holding between her thumb and index finger.

The female Granilith’s eyes narrowed. She held it to the sky, but it was too dark for that to help. She held it to the flickering bonfire.

“I’m surprised you guys lit a fire.”

“Why is that?” Liz asked, tilting her head.

“I don’t know. I expected something… More advanced, I guess?”

“Ha!” She chuckled. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

The female Granilith walked back towards them, and Liz extended a hand towards her.

Lith extended the hand she was holding the piece of jewelry with, but it went past Liz’s.

“Hm?” Liz was slightly confused for a moment, but she quickly understood.

Lith was holding the piece of jewelry over Liz’s chest.

“It’s not a necklace.” Liz chuckled.

The Paru pulled her hair back, and Liz tilted her head to reveal her right ear.

“It goes here, see?”

The female Granilith’s eyes narrowed as she stared.

“Uwa?!” Lith exclaimed, noticing the hole in Liz’s ear. “Uwaaa!” Her surprise quickly turned into a fascination of sorts.

“It goes here. This part there.” Liz explained as she pointed at her ear, then at the earring.

“It doesn’t open or close.” The Paru muttered. “Making something like that… Well, I couldn’t figure out how to.”

“That’s okay.” Liz said with a smile. “I love it, really!” She turned back towards the female Granilith excitedly. “Can I have it back? I really want to try it on!”

The female Granilith’s eyes narrowed.

The earring’s design was rather simple, similar to a french wire earring. The blue crystal was shiny, and just the right size so that it would be easily visible, not large enough that it would cause issues during intense activities, or heavy enough that it would pull on Liz’s ear.

“Can I have it back?” Liz repeated.

The female Granilith’s eyes narrowed further.

She took a step closer.

“D-D-D…” Liz stuttered as Lith bent her back and stared at the former’s ear. “Do you want to put it on me?”

Lith’s index finger carefully pushed Liz’s earlobe upwards. She stared silently.

A moment later, she chuckled, laying the earring into her mate’s hand.

“Can I?” The Paru asked with a smile, holding the piece of jewelry to Liz’s ear.

“Y-Yeah.” Liz stuttered, blushing.

The female Granilith pressed her lips together as she smiled.

The Paru slowly and carefully pushed the earring through.

Liz could feel herself blush more intensely with every passing moment. He was being truly slow, and careful.

“All done.”

“T-Thank you!” Liz turned towards him, but stopped herself from moving closer to kiss him.

There was no doubt that she hadn’t because of Lith’s presence, which made the latter giggle.

“H-How does it look?” The blushing Liz asked, tilting her head to present the piece of jewelry on her ear to Lith.

“Uwoooo!!” The female Granilith exclaimed as she clapped her hands.

“Yeah?” Liz turned towards him. “W-What do you think?”

“I think you look amazing.” He answered with a smile.

“Haha!” Liz chuckled as she grinned widely. “Can’t wait to see myself in a mirror then!”

This had been Lith’s exact idea.

Her hand lay on Liz’s wrist and wrapped around it. Lith pulled gently.

Once again, the two smiled widely. This was exactly how they had communicated with her countless times to tell her to…

“Y-You want us to go somewhere?” Liz asked, pressing her lips together.

She really didn’t want to leave her seat. When will the next time come when she will be able to sit on his lap comfortably?

Lith pulled on her hand again, just as gently as before.

“A… Alright.” Liz answered, slightly dejected.

Her feet regained the ground, and just as her butt lifted off his legs, the Paru’s arms wrapped around her stomach, pulling her back into his lap and sticking her body to his chest.

He deposited a kiss on her neck as she chuckled.

A moment later, Liz turned around, swiftly kissing his lips, before moving towards his ear.

“I’m not sure what you meant earlier by how proposals are made on Wor…” She whispered in his ear. “But does this mean that we’re… That we’re…?” Liz slowly pulled back.

There wasn’t an ounce of confusion that his smile hadn’t cleared.

“I-It’s usually the girl that proposes, you know?”

“Is it?” He asked, tilting his head. “Then why don’t you?”

“Y-You want me to propose? In… In front of… In the first place, isn’t it too soon? I mean…”

The Paru brought a hand to Liz’s cheek and caressed her tenderly.

“In front of everyone or when we’re alone, now or later… It’s the same to me.” The Paru whispered as he took hold of her hand and brought it to his mouth. “To me, we’re already-”

“R-Really?” Liz shouted suddenly, overcome by surprise. “Shit…” She cursed under her breath. Liz really didn’t mean to interrupt him.

“Yeah.” He answered, kissing the back of her hand. “But you can propose, if you’d like. Just don’t wait too long, or I will propose before you can.”

Liz gulped, blushing.

“A-Alright.” She nodded, staring into his eyes.

The two kissed for a moment, and Liz stood up, feeling a bit awkward about Lith’s presence.

“I’ll do it then.” Liz muttered as she nodded.

“When you do, make sure to call me by my name.”

Liz gulped again.

“Y-You mean…?”

“Yeah.” The Paru smiled. “It’s a name you suggested. How can I not choose it?”

“A-Alright…” Liz whispered, holding her hands together. “So, I’ll see you later… Cero?”

“Yes, you will.” Cero chuckled. “As long as I don’t find you asleep.”

Liz nodded, and walked away to join Lith’s side.

The female Granilith was, with a large smile on her face, looking into her mate’s eyes, who was smiling just as widely.

“So…”

Lith’s ear twitched suddenly.

The one she had decided to support was finally back, which meant that it was time for her and Liz to leave.

She smiled cheekily at her mate, and turned towards the person she had decided to…

“Y-You…!”

Lith’s eyes suddenly narrowed.

“A-Always making fun of me. Unbelievable. Now everyone is in on it… This is just… Just great…”

Instead of the person that the female Granilith had decided to support, the person that appeared was a way too drunk Roka.
