He beckoned with his finger.
"Mm!!?"
Herbert gently moved the finger he had placed in Ophidia's mouth, inadvertently brushing against her soft tongue.
Meanwhile, Herbert didn't hold back, and deliberately licked the blood off his fingertip.
This two-pronged attack instantly broke Ophidia's defenses.
"Mm——"
How could she have ever seen such a spectacle?
All the thoughts in Ophidia's mind vanished in an instant. She was originally planning to reprimand Herbert for his disrespect, but her mind failed her completely.
Her brain went completely blank, unable to recall anything.
"..."
After a long time, Ophidia finally came to her senses, blinking dazedly.
She lowered her head, staring at her fingertips which seemed like they still retained his warmth, along with the already healed wound.
She... she didn't even realize when Herbert released her.
Ophidia felt that she had lost.
Lost completely and utterly.
