Chapter 277: Skipping?
"Fun...?" Marionette muttered, watching as Lillian sat up, resting her rear on her hips. Then, she felt the girl's hands move under the black shirt, pressing her fingers around the sides of her waist.
Marionette shivered a bit at her touch before slowly raising her hands to the sides of the girl's face, clutching it gently and pulling.
Lillian allowed the woman to pull her face down. As their lips met again, her hands continued to move up along the woman's side, causing the hem of the Assassin's shirt to move up, revealing more and more of her smooth skin.
Chu~... Chu~... Chu~...
With their eyes closed, they moved their lips against each other—slow and sensual, as they took their time enjoying each other's tastes.
Once Marionette's shirt was high enough to where her black bras were showing, Lillian moved her right hand away from the woman's side and placed it over the Assassin's right breast.
Chu~...
Lillian pulled away from the woman's lips, slowly opening her eyes and staring into the Assassin's eyes, which had a subtle glint of excitement that grew by the second.
Lillian winked at her, smiling, before licking her own lips and leaning into the side of the woman's ear.
She then whispered in a seductive tone:
"Sweet and savory... Delicious as always~..."
Lillian listened keenly, hearing the Assassin give out a sharp breath and gasp at her words.
She then felt something pull against the front of her shirt.
Looking down, she found Marionette's hand pinching and pulling it. Looking back up, she looked into the woman's eyes, who stared at her in an almost needy way.
She then heard her whisper:
"C-... Continue... Lilly..."
Lillian, hearing this, giggled. Cupping the side of the Assassin's face, she whispered back while patting it:
"Don't worry, my adorable little kitten~... I'll be sure to continue."
As she said this, Lillian couldn't help but blush furiously inside as she yelled internally:
'Pet play, seriously!?'
Lillian leaned in, planting a kiss on the Assassin's forehead before trailing down the side of her face, pressing a firmer kiss on her cheek and eventually reaching her jaw and neck.
Marionette tilted her head, giving Lillian more room to play with her neck as her mouth spilt out small moans, which excited the girl.
Lillian, moving her hand over the woman's chest, caressed them, causing the sensitive woman to release a much more sensual moan.
They went on to do this for a couple of minutes until having to hide under the covers, for Veronica had suddenly entered the room, looking for a drink.
She stared curiously towards the couch before wandering off into the kitchen. While this was happening, under the covers, Marionette had her hand clasped around her mouth.
She stared into Lillian's eyes, who stared back wryly with a crooked smile. The girl pinched the hem of the woman's shorts and pulled it down, hiding their chest.
"Let's... Continue this tomorrow..."
"... I suppose... That would be the right call..."

[Tomorrow's Afternoon]
"Are you sure you wish to skip today's match?"
Marionette asked, sitting on a simulated boulder as she watched Lillian take on a horde of over-sized rodents—around 5—inside a cave lit up with torches hanging on the side.
Each rodent was around 1 metre tall and a metre wide.
They had grey hair, which was abnormally spiky and stiff and had hands that were similar to that of humans, except being more muscular, rough, and slightly pinkish.
They also had eyes that seemed to flicker between red and black constantly, giving them a rather intimidating appearance.
Lillian, glancing around her, watched as the rodents chattered their quarter of metre-long teeth against the ground as though taunting her to make the first move.
Lillian waved her free hand dismissively at her girlfriend and yelled back:
"Uh, yeah! Not much of a reason for me to go. And I doubt you'd want to, considering you don't really know anyone on our side's team."
Using the hand she was waving with, she switched it to its liquid form before shaping it into a blade that grew considerably in length before curving back.
With a spin—
Swooshh!
—She slashed through the eyes of the rodents, with only a few of them being able to use their teeth to block her slash.
The two rodents, who had been victim of their attack, reeled back as they squealed and rubbed their eyes with their hands, eliciting another pain-filled sound to escape their mouth.
Marionette gave a low hum as she watched Lillian fight and took all of them down with minimal trouble.
"I suppose. So, I believe you wish to just spar today? Behind you, by the way."
Lillian, pulling her attention towards the Assassin, raised an eyebrow. She twisted her head back, finding a rodent that had closed its mouth down on her arm, which she raised as defence unconsciously.
Crunch!
Lillian winced, her eyes momentarily trembling as she felt her arm become mashed and torn apart inside the rodent's mouth, which seemed to be enhanced with mana.
Placing her free hand on the rodent's snout and pushing against it, she turned her head back towards the Assassin and spoke in a trembling but casual tone:
"W-well... we could go on—O-ow... a date later after this if you like."
Marionette immediately perked up at the sound of a date.
"A date?" She muttered under her breath as she got off of the stone she was sitting on before walking over to Lillian, who had finally finished off the last one with a liquid drill to the eye.
Lillian, pulling and ripping her arm out of its mouth and losing it, had now a severed stump. She frowned before sighing, forming a liquid arm in its place.
Marionette, who was watching this, raised an eyebrow.
"Have you tried to regenerate your arm?"
"Hm?"
Lillian thought about her girlfriend's question, glancing at her stump now and then before answering:
"I haven't. But with the amount of vitality I need to restore an entire limb, I don't think these 5 would be enoug—"
"Just try it."
Lillian gave Marionette a deadpan expression.
