Supreme Husband System! & Supreme Wife System!-Chapter 216: The Beginning of the Second Ascension Trial!

[The second ascension trial is a test of your mental strength under the influence of Madness Energy!]

"Hey, hey, hey, wait, the System!" almost shouted Idan. "You're not trying to make us crazy, are you?"

Arabel nodded in agreement, supporting Idan's question.

Arabel had personally experienced the effects of the Madness Energy in the Forest of Doppelgangers. This was especially noticeable when a Temple appeared in the Forbidden Zone. Back then, the concentration of Madness Energy in the central layer was huge, and its impact was palpable.

If it weren't for the contracts with the Doppelgangers that helped them resist the Energy of Madness, they would hardly have been able to reach the field where the Temple appeared in their right mind.

Sierra and Esma, due to their rank, could handle such a concentration of Madness Energy, but they couldn't.

[Host, there's no need to worry. The system will not allow anything irreparable to happen to you.]

[The second trial is designed to test your tolerance limit and fortitude, as well as to harden it.]

[Due to the fact that the influence of the Energy of Madness can be devastating and cause irreparable mental damage, Hosts, you will forget everything that happens during the trial.]

"Is it really that serious?" asked Arabel, still unable to believe what she had heard.

Idan was already regretting that he had agreed to this test.

He sighed, not knowing what the upcoming trial would be like. The very thought that the System was going to test their resilience by using the Energy of Madness made them shudder.

"How are you, Belle?" asked Idan, and his voice sounded somehow strange, unusual.

"Me?.. I'm already starting to get scared," — Arabel blurted out, still not daring to look at Idan in his new form. She could barely contain herself. If it wasn't for that, she would have already explored his body, and the very thought made her tremble.

"Why is that? Why am I reacting so strongly to him?" Arabel asked in her thoughts, still unable to understand what was happening to her. And then there's the ascension trial, which, according to the system, promises to be even more difficult than the previous one.

Seeing that Arabel's condition wasn't very good, Idan didn't know what to do. This was going to be a serious challenge, and they needed to prepare for it with all seriousness and maintain a fighting spirit.

But due to his sudden change and new shape, Arabel couldn't concentrate properly.

At the moment, Idan couldn't do anything about his body.

As he understood it, until the ascension trial began and ended, Idan would not be able to assume his normal Alpha Fire form, rather than his human form.

Only by being in a form like his could the System temporarily restrain the Madness Energy that had been absorbed by his bloodline.

Seeing that Arabel would not calm down at this rate and would begin the test unprepared, Idan pulled himself together and decided to act. Especially since time was passing and they needed to hurry.

Idan stepped towards Arabel and reached her in a matter of seconds.

Arabel was still standing with her eyes closed, and Idan could tell from her breathing and behavior that she was trying to calm down, but she wasn't doing very well.

"Belle!" called Idan, and Arabel froze at the sound of Idan's voice, which she heard very close to her, and before she knew it, she was hugged.

"Belle!" — Idan called out again, looking at Arabel, who was frozen in immobility like a statue. However, her heartbeat increased and she began to breathe heavily.

"Why are you holding back, Belle?" asked Idan.

"Huh?" — Arabel's thoughts, which were in complete chaos at that moment, suddenly stopped when she heard his words.

"I'm asking you, why are you holding back, Belle?" repeated Idan.

Idan was amazed to see how much Arabel was affected by his new form. She tried to restrain herself from lashing out at him.

Idan wondered how such a thing could happen. Even when he saw Arabel's true appearance, he didn't feel such a strong attraction.

Yes, Arabel was a real beauty, and her beauty only intensified after awakening. But even after that, Idan wasn't so fascinated by her that he lost his head.

"Why am I holding back?" Arabel muttered after hearing Idan's question.

"Yes, why are you holding back? Am I not your boyfriend? Not your fiance?" repeated Idan.

As soon as Arabel heard those words, something clicked in her head.

"And really, why? He's mine!" Arabel thought, opening her eyes and looking at Idan.

Arabel could no longer contain her feelings. Just like Idan said, wasn't he her boyfriend and, as the System declared, her fiance?

Unable to hold back any longer, Arabel hugged Idan tightly in return. Feeling his body pressed against hers and the warmth it radiated, she couldn't help but smile. Closing her eyes, she enjoyed this moment.

"Tell me, Belle, did I really become so handsome that you could barely restrain yourself?" asked Idan, hugging Arabel.

Unlike her, in this Flame Spirit form, Idan didn't have such a strong attraction to Arabel. His emotions were as calm as ever, he didn't even have a single piece of the vulgar thoughts he sometimes had when he had to hug or get close to Arabel.

Arabel, hearing Idan's question, remained silent.

Arabel likes Idan, not because of his looks.

Idan's appearance was ordinary: neither pretty nor bad. Just normal. What Arabel liked about Idan was the kind of person he was.

But now, in this new form, Idan looked completely different. The guy Arabel liked suddenly became handsome. It couldn't help but affect her.

Arabel also realized that, most likely, her bloodline was to blame for her violent reaction again.

Because of this sudden strong attraction, Arabel was a little scared and began to resist this new feeling that had appeared in relation to Idan.

It was only when Idan asked and reminded her who he was to her that Arabel finally understood and stopped resisting this new sensation.

"Hehe hehe, — Arabel started laughing like a fool, hugging Idan. Then what she said scared Idan a little, and even in this form he felt goosebumps all over his body: "He's mine! Mine! Only mine!"

Arabel opened her eyes and looked into his eyes. Then she looked away.

"Tell me, Dan... when you return to your human form, will you return to your normal form or will you..." Arabel stopped, staring at Idan's body, and of course, even without remaining words, he understood what Arabel wanted to ask.

"I don't know. We will find out only after the trial," Idan replied, then, when Arabel looked into his eyes, Idan, to his surprise, kissed her on the forehead.

"Have you calmed down?" asked Idan after the kiss, not showing his own surprise after such an act.

Arabel didn't react at all. She suddenly let go of Idan, then, touching his cheek, suddenly kissed him on the lips.

A second later, Arabel realized what she had done and wanted to move away, but Idan did not let her go, hugging her tightly and pulling her to him, and returned her kiss with his own. Arabel was surprised at first, but then she closed her eyes and responded in kind.

It was only ten seconds later that they broke away from each other. Arabel couldn't take her eyes off Idan, breathing heavily.

Idan was pleasantly surprised by what had just happened. It was their first real kiss. That kiss on the day of their first meeting was not considered a kiss by Idan, as it was part of the System's task.

Looking at Arabel, Idan realized that time was inexorably running out. With a regretful sigh, he released her. freёwebnoѵel.com

Arabel, having received her freedom, did not immediately come to her senses. She was still trying to process what had just happened, but not as violently as before.

"Are you ready?" asked Idan, bringing her back to reality.

At this moment, Arabel's condition was no longer as chaotic as before. She looked at Idan and nodded her head. Despite everything that had happened, Arabel was now serious and ready for the upcoming ascension trial. She also understood that time was passing while they were standing here and figuring out their relationship.

Seeing Arabel's nod and her already calmer appearance, Idan sighed and, having also prepared himself, turned to the system.

"System, we're ready!"

[The Second Ascension Trial! A Trial Of The Energy Of Madness! It starts in three seconds.] — the system's response sounded.

[Three.] — The countdown has started.

[Two.] — Idan looked at Arabel, and she returned his gaze.

[One.] — the system's voice sounded for the last time.

"Good luck!" they wished each other, and at the same moment darkness enveloped their consciousness.
