Unrivaled Demon's Odyssey
Chapter 48 - Anomaly

Nero opened the door and entered the room while Laira followed him as she slowly walked in.

Laira was fidgeting while glancing around as she and Nero were the only ones in the room. Emilia and Sophia were still downstairs as Emilia wanted to eat more, and Nero asked Sophia to keep an eye on Emilia.

Nero walked further inside the room, and Laira turned around and slowly began to close the door.

As she was closing the door, she heard the rustling sound of clothes. Her face flushed as she closed the door.

"Hmm? Why did you close the door?" Nero asked from behind her.

Laira turned around with her face still flushed, but soon she met with dissatisfaction when she saw Nero was still dressed and the rustling sound she heard earlier was from the bag he was holding.

"What's this?" Laira asked.

Nero opened the bag and showed her.

"Skins and furs of animals?"

"Yeah, we gathered some, thinking we would exchange it to the guild in exchange for money so we would be able to stay and eat at some inn. But since we are leaving tomorrow and I don't want to carry this bag everywhere, while I have no idea where I will replace a guild, I am giving this to you."

Nero handed the bag to Laira and said, "I think it's more than enough to cover up the money for the rent and the food."

Laira smiled and shook her head, "There is an open guild in this town, so exchange it yourself."

Nero raised his eyebrows and asked, "There is a guild here?"

Laira nodded and added, "A big one and many neighboring town adventurers come here to make their guild pass."

"Why is there a big guild in an abandoned town?"

"Because this town is independent, so the adventurers get many hires from here."

Nero sighed and closed the bag. "Then I will exchange it myself. How much do I owe you?"

Laira shook her head and spoke, "There is no need to pay. Use the money you get by exchanging the skin and furs as our travel expense."

Nero frowned his face and glared at Laira, "Stop being kind to me. I hate it."

"Why?"

"Kind people always meet a bad end."

'There is that lonely look on his face again,' Laira thought as she tried to say something to Nero. But before she could even speak a word, the door of the room opened with a loud bang, and Emilia and Sophia entered the room.

Emilia and Sophia looked at Nero, then looked at Laira. They glanced around the room and rushed to the bed, and checked the sheets as though they were investigating something.

After a while, they looked at each other and nodded. Both Sophia and Emilia were in sync.

Nero shook his head in disbelief as he looked at Emilia with dead eyes, "Seriously?"

Nero knew what Emilia and Sophia were investigating, and he couldn't believe it.

"Don't look at me like that!" Emilia hissed then pointed her finger at Sophia. "Look at her too! I wasn't the only one."

Nero's reaction didn't change, and he was still shaking his head while looking at Emilia with dead eyes.

Emilia bit her lips in annoyance and uttered, "Well, how do you wanted me to react? First, you told Laira 'Come with me to the room.'. And when Sophia and I came upstairs to check— the door was closed. What else could I have done?"

Nero still stared at Emilia with the same look on his face.

"Umm… I will take my leave now," Laira turned around and left the room.

"Seriously, Emilia. Your mind is too perverted."

"It was her!" Emilia pointed her finger at Sophia and shouted, "I was eating peacefully, and then she started saying weird stuff like you and Laira were… you know what I am talking about. And then she insisted that we should check up. It's really not my fault."

Nero sighed and threw the bag in the corner, then sat on the bed. "Sophia?"

"I was just curious since you like girls who act meekly, and Laira was the perfect match."

"If I really wanted to do 'that' with her, then I would have done it a long ago." Nero laid down on the bed and stared at the ceiling. "Though I guess she was expecting the same thing."

"Are you perhaps interested in her?" Sophia asked.

"No."

"Then I guess I should apologize."

"It's fine."

"Not to you," Sophia remarked, then said, "I was talking about Laira. She must be feeling ashamed."

"I will be right back," Sophia left the room to apologize to Laira— leaving Nero and Emilia alone in the room.

Nero closed his eyes to enjoy the peace, but his peace was interrupted by Emilia, "Are you angry?"

"Not really. If I was angry, then you would be orgasming right now."

Emilia chuckled and sat on the bed, then placed Nero's head on her lap— giving him a lap pillow.

Emilia gently caressed Nero's face, and after doing that for a while, she said, "Can we do one quickie?"

"I knew it!" Nero sat up and turned to Emilia, "You only get touchy when you want to get screwed."

"That's not true. It's just… you will be spending tonight with Sophia, so… I will be lonely." Emilia said with a sad look on her face.

"Oh, come on! That face won't work on me anymore."

"Tch!" Emilia clicked her tongue and wrapped her arms around Nero, "Now that I remember, I haven't kissed you today."

Emilia brought her face closer to Nero's, but Nero pushed her back, saying, "Not today. I am not in the mood."

"Are you worried that Sophia might get angry?" Emilia asked suspiciously.

"After what Laira said downstairs, I just… don't want to do anything with you right now."

"Oh!" Emilia asked, "About we being brother and sister?"

"Yeah. "

"We both know that's not true, so what's wrong with it?" Emilia asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"It might not be a big deal for you, but I had a sister in my past life. And I don't know why but I can't help but look at you as my sister. So wait till morning before we do anything."

Emilia smirked as she grabbed the pillow, and hugged it then hid her face behind it.

"Brother," She looked at Nero with slutty— yet innocent eyes. "Do you not want to make love with your sister?"

"Cut it out!"
