Ryu lost track of time. He seemed to have forgotten that he had plans to breakthrough into the Cosmic Seed Realm and potentially even attempt to finish his first Life Destruction, but it seemed that there was also a bit of a price to be paid for his newfound carefreeness.
He found that being able to embrace Eska was quite a wonderful feeling. She was a woman in every sense of the word, and there wasn't the slightest bit of imperfection in her. Ryu had called Mae's newfound master the perfect woman, but he had never said that she was the only one he knew. In fact, one such perfect woman had her legs and arms wrapped around him right this moment, riding the waves of his lust.
