BXBX NOVEL Chapter 180 - Evolving Ability
"Two carriages are enough, right?" Pavel questioned.
"Yeah." Rhea nodded. "There are eight people in total, so we can do 4 in one and 4 in another."
Once the sun had set, Nero went to the room to wake up the girls.
Sophia was already awake in her angel form, and she was combing her hair in front of the mirror.
"It\'s rare to see you combing." Nero chuckled. "What\'s up?"
"Nothing." Sophia turned around and uttered, "You told me to take care of my angel form and that you love it. So I will do it. I may not look as charming as I used to look before, but I hope you pay me some attention too."
"Don\'t make it sound like I don\'t pay you attention," Nero remarked.
"I was talking about \'that\' attention," Sophia grinned and hugged Nero.
"Is it going to be like this for forever? I want to make love with you in my real body, too," she murmured.
Nero patted Sophia\'s back and replied in a gentle voice: "Soon."
"I don\'t want to hear that as an answer. Give me a fixed time. I can\'t wait for any longer," Sophia refuted.
After a brief silence, Nero uttered, "As soon as I find you a new core. And if I can\'t find one, I will create one. But… I need time."
"I wish I weren\'t born an angel," Sophia muttered in a low voice.
"Don\'t say that." Nero tittered. "You know, you are the only angel I don\'t hate. Although, I admit I did hate you at first."
"I have always loved you ever since I first saw you."
"Lies. I can\'t count how many times you tried to kill me when you found out that I was a demon."
Sophia\'s face flushed as she averted her gaze and squirmed: "That was… also my love."
"Yeah, right." Nero scoffed: "So you were a crazy psycho yandere shota-con— oh! I forgot to add \'stalker\'."
Sophia puffed her cheeks and uttered, "I told you that watching over you was my duty, so that doesn\'t count as stalking."
"Umu. Umu. I have heard this like thousands of times."
Sophia squinted her eyes and jumped on Nero to kiss him. She wrapped her hands around Nero\'s neck and pressed her lips on his lips. Then, she inserted her tongue in his mouth and began sucking all his saliva.
Nero tried to push her back, but Sophia just pulled him with her.
After kissing for a while, Sophia licked her lips and said with a mischievous smile on her face: "As expected. Kissing in my real form does feel different."
"You idiot! What have you done! Now you will—"
"Relax." Sophia interrupted Nero and continued, "I won\'t turn into a fallen angel."
"But we kissed, and you drank all my saliva!" Nero argued.
"Yes, I did. And it was the most delicious liquid I have ever drank."
"Scratch all that! What do you mean by \'you won\'t turn into a fallen angel\'?" Nero asked with an anxious and curious look on his face.
"As you know, my Angelic ability is to change the form, so I changed my form from the inside but stayed the same for the outside. That way, I stay as Sophia, and I can feel and experience everything with my real body."
"...." Nero was speechless.
He stared at Sophia with a dumbfounded look on his face.
"What? You couldn\'t understand? I thought you were smarter than this," Sophia shrugged her shoulders and shook her head in disbelief.
"I did understand what you are trying to say, but I am amazed how you pulled it off," Nero replied.
"Up until now, I was using my ability for other purposes, but now I am only using it to have sex with you. So I had to do something and evolve this ability." Sophia stopped and licked her lips before saying, "And it seems It was successful."
"So that means we can have sex in your real form without any worry, right?" Nero asked curiously.
"No." Sophia sighed. "Unfortunately, I can keep this up for more than 1 minute."
"So one minute is your limit, huh?"
"For now, yeah. But I am working on it. So even if you don\'t manage to find me a new core, we can have a backup plan," Sophia replied with a grin.
SIGH!
Nero let out a weary sigh and uttered, "I can\'t believe we are talking like this about sex as if it\'s something serious."
"It is serious!" Sophia shouted.
"Yes, sex is a very serious matter," Emilia asserted from the bed.
"You are awake? Nice."
"I was awake for a while, but your two were talking about real-body this and that." Emilia shrugged. "I couldn\'t understand anything, so I chose to stay silent."
"Wake Asteria up; we are leaving the inn tonight." Nero walked to the door and said, "I will go set up the table and order food for us."
Nero left the room, and Sophia followed him soon after.
Emilia conjured clothes around her body and looked at the sleeping Asteria.
"I have never woken up anyone in my life," she muttered.
\'How should I wake her up?\' she wondered.
"Should I just say something like, \'Asteria, wake up; we are leaving?\' What body part should I shake?\'
\'Her hands? Or maybe, I should tap on her shoulders?\'
Emilia couldn\'t do a simple task to wake Asteria.
Meanwhile, Nero ordered a special dish for everyone.
Pavel and Arnold had brought some fresh meat of animals with them when they went to scout the area. And Sophia gave the purple fruits to make juice.
Pavel, Rhea, Arnold, and Rosemary had already started eating, but Nero and Sophia were waiting for Emilia and Asteria.
"That pervert… why is she taking so long?" Nero wondered.
"I bet she fell asleep again," Sophia remarked.
"That… is… possible," Nero nodded in agreement.
SIGH!
Nero sighed and uttered, "I will go check."
Nero lazily walked upstairs to their room and opened the door.
Emilia bumped into Nero as though she was about to leave the room in a hurry.
"Watch out. What was taking—!"
Nero stopped when he looked at Emilia\'s face. She looked panicked and horrified.
"What\'s wrong?"
Emilia pointed her gaze at Asteria, who was sitting on the bed: "She is acting strange."
Nero entered the room and uttered," Asteria, let\'s go."
Asteria stared at Nero and blinked a couple of times with a dumbfounded look on her face. Then, she immediately jumped from the bed and hugged Nero.
"Master Zeus!"
"Princess… Astrea?"
