Ascent of Hero on the Dragon Throne

Queenie struggled in the water helplessly. She was screaming and flailing; any hint of arrogance disappeared from her face.

Rocky couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of Queenie struggling. However, the moment he saw the Combating Heavenly Robust Wolf approach, he jumped into the water and pulled Queenie downwards to the bottom of the pond.

When the Combating Heavenly Robust Wolf reached the edge of the pond, it stopped hesitantly. It was extremely powerful, but it had one fear that made it vulnerable. It was afraid of water, and Rocky knew it so he took advantage of it.

But the spirit-manipulated beast wasn't just going to give up. It swung its huge tail angrily and flapped it up and down by the pond.

As Rocky and Queenie sank deeper into the water, Rocky realized that Queenie was struggling. She wasn't able to hold enough air before diving and was struggling to control her breath in the water. She was at the Supernal Stage, but she couldn't do anything about drowning.

When she couldn't hold it anymore, she grabbed onto Rocky and held on to him tightly as if he was her life ring, urging him to swim upwards.

The bottom of the pond was dim so Queenie wasn't able to see Rocky's face. If she had known it was Rocky, then she would refuse to hold on to him. She would rather die than touch him. Queenie was struggling so much that she had started to fear for her life. The more nervous she was, the more flustered she became. She almost lost her grip but was able to grab Rocky's shoulders tightly. Her face was flushing and she could feel her lungs were about to explode.

"You are so..." Rocky was infuriated. He did not

and was ready to attack Rocky.

The reason why Queenie was making such a big deal out of it was because she had never been touched by a man. She was in her twenties and was a very powerful lady, yet she just had her first kiss with Rocky. Chastity was important for her, and so the kiss made her feel humiliated. Moreover, she hated that a stranger had taken her first kiss. If anyone found out, she would be extremely ashamed.

"I'll kill you! I won't let you get away with this! Get ready to die!" Queenie cried out with clenched fists.

"Wait a minute! I saved you out of kindness. I indeed have kissed you, but I only did it to save your life. I don't think I deserve to die for saving you, Miss Queenie." While Rocky expected a little pushback from Queenie, he did not think she'd be that unreasonable. If he had known that she'd throw a fuss, he should have just let her get eaten by the Combating Heavenly Robust Wolf.

"How do you know who I am?" Queenie was stunned.

"Have you forgotten me?" Rocky was surprised. He did not expect that she'd easily forget him after just a few days.
