Hunters are truly fated to a life of toil; they can't be idle, nor are they allowed to be.
Although he had just resolved Rhine Lab's experimental issues, Goki couldn't rest. Instead, he took Skadi and rushed non-stop to the other end of the High-Tech Development Zone.
Their objective was to rescue some people from a research institution called Loken Tank.
However, unlike in Yharnam, where the Blood Moon Queen, that old schemer, constantly guided him to destroy the rituals of other Great Ones, on Terra, all of Goki's actions were of his own volition.
And the reason was very simple—how could he not listen to his wife? As long as he could make the stoic beauty smile, doing a little more wasn't an issue for him.
"We're here, Kal'tsit."
Goki found Kal'tsit, who had left Rhine Lab early and was waiting at Loken Tank, by the wide avenue in the park.
"You're ten minutes later than scheduled. Too slow. We must hurry. The High-Tech Development Zone's security forces are well-staffed; Rhine Lab can't hold them off for too long."
The big cat still maintained her composure, emerging from a large truck hidden under the trees, and looked at Goki strangely.
"Your mouth looks swollen?"
At her words, Goki and Skadi beside him both awkwardly turned their heads away, and when their gazes met, they immediately turned their heads to the other side, somewhat shyly.
As an Old Hunter who strictly adhered to punctuality, Goki had even left a dozen minutes for their rendezvous after waving goodbye to the people at Rhine Lab.
And exceeding the rendezvous time was truly out of his control… He and Skadi had been in a small grove two streets away, not rushing to meet Kal'tsit, but rather, he had been pressed against a wall and kissed by Skadi for quite some time.
How to put it, although neither of them had any kissing experience, their mutual affection was undeniable. So the whole process was both shy and exciting for both of them.
Especially Skadi, whose most thrilling experience from childhood to adulthood was single-handedly beheading the Seaborn God's Great One. She had no experience kissing others.
If it weren't for Goki introducing her to Columbia movies and TV shows recently, which she became obsessed with when her man was on missions, Skadi probably wouldn't have known that "kissing" was a way to express affection.
And not long ago, having bravely taken the first step… she had developed a taste for it.
How to put it—it made Goki's teeth ache.
However, as long as Skadi was happy, that was all that mattered. As for how to kiss comfortably, he could teach her slowly later.
So, Goki had already decided on his next goal, besides official business—to learn the correct and skilled kissing techniques in Kazimierz that could make Titi happy.
Although the Gallic rooster had fallen in this timeline, it still left behind the Gallic deep kiss—Goki definitely had to learn it.
And to be honest, not just kissing, but further intimacy, Goki also had to learn.
After all, in the future, Goki would definitely be making Little Orcas with Skadi.
Or rather… Little Lynxes?
Sorry, Skadi, your husband came to Terra with the intention of being a scoundrel!
"Ahem, it's fine, it's fine. We'll make up for the lost time directly. Let's get started quickly."
Clearing his throat, Goki released Skadi's hand, which had been intertwined with his, and together with the Little Orca, pulled out their weapons—he had acquired a lot before, but now was not the time to sort through spoils.
