Chapter 30: Layered Meanings

Alex’s thoughts blanked for a moment.
The bandeau did little to hide her figure. It highlighted her full, perky breasts—generous, but not overwhelming for her slender frame. They were perfectly shaped, their curves forming a graceful arc that seemed crafted by divine hands.
Alex blinked and finally found his voice. "You didn’t have to strip everything off. I expected you to just pull down the right side of your clothes."
Zora, ever calm, responded without a hint of embarrassment. "You’ll see better this way. It’ll make your work easier."
She wasn’t wrong. Though the Rune was to be inked on her upper arm, the positioning and success of the tattoo depended on various factors—mapping the nearby mana pathways, analysing the spread of the Nirvana Markings,,. Considering all that, showing him her entire torso rather than only the affected area made logistical sense.
Alex understood that. Still, it didn’t stop certain... involuntary reactions.
"Think of me as a patient," Zora added, catching the flicker of restlessness in his eyes.
"Understood," Alex said, steeling himself as he reached for his Rune pen.
The Rune pen was a high-grade magical artefact, its tip an ultrafine hollow needle. Ink flowed through it at a rate precisely controlled by his Spiritual Force and Mana, allowing for absolute precision.
