Chapter 60 Parallel Emotions - Different Paths
Asura climbed from the container and landed on a soft wooden floor covered in strange cables made with monster fibres and strange hide... Someone created the black box he was inside with monster bones and various stones that were clearly from somewhere special.
A luminous display like the monoliths flashed, showing the strange text he saw in those memories.
Strange technology... the magic was mixed with architecture to make strange objects that can perform magic automatically...
"It feels like a primitive version of that world's technology..." Suddenly, the door opened from behind, and a woman cheerfully humming sounded before she stopped as the sound of wood and other objects dropped to the ground. He turned around and noticed that the woman was Lorem... "Oh, hey Lorem, you look as nerdy as ever."
Her crimson hair shone in the light from the dusty, rustic blinds while her white shirt was full of creases and dirt, revealing her voluptuous chest with several scars and wounds. It seemed she was wearing an eyepatch to cover her right eye.
The moment he spoke, the tone and deep tone caused her body to tremble for a moment before she quickly recovered and squatted down to pick up the various items that seemed to be used to make breakfast.
'Ah... those memories were so vivid I spoke like Sura in my memories. Lorem looks shaken by my words...'
"Asura... you naked... can you wear the clothes on the side? I may be much older than you, but I'm still a woman with needs... your body is like damn poison..."
He felt her words were fair and turned around, noticing that someone had cleaned his clothes in the Hell zone and neatly arranged them on hangars for him to change.
At first, he thought she would be fine being an adult, but he saw her fingers trembling, almost dropping the bowls and various items on the ground while glancing at him out of the corner of her eyes.
Once dressed, he noticed she had disappeared again and was likely getting some ingredients. Asura noticed that the bowls and other utensils were dirty, so he organised and cleaned the table of messy clothes and other documents. He then picked up a warm... triangular piece of cloth... it was silky-like velvet with a black frilly outline... "Hmm... the scent is a little sweet and earthy..." "Hell..."
"Hmmm?" Asura turned back to Lorem, who was looking at him with a completely red face while trembling as she placed the food on the counter and pointed at him with a strange look of anger on her face.
"The hell are you doing with my underwear!?"
"Eh? But it's like string... how does this cover that..."
The moment he said that, his eyes looked towards her large, round buttocks, which were something that most men would dream of belonging to their wives.
"S-string!?" For the first time, he felt that Lorem's voice turned inside out as she rushed towards him to grab them from his hand.
However, Asura simply moved them away from her grasp and sniffed them again.
"Hmmm... it's quite pleasant... maybe I should try wearing it?"
"Don't you dare!"
Immersed in the memories, Asura didn't realise how he was acting wasn't normal... and the man before her caused Lorem to lower her guard as he trapped her mind in the past.
She remembered when Sura acted similarly to tease her and often stole her underwear to tease her back when she was weak and could only compete with her intellect and skill with magic...
"Hahahaha! You're so cute, Lorem—no wonder I fell for you!"
It was that moment when the illusion shattered, and Asura realised that, at some point, he was being dragged by the nostalgic feeling of those memories, and the same was true for Lorem as she stood frozen on the spot... her eyes widened as she stepped back after snatching her thong back from his hand.
"You... don't speak nonsense... Get out!"
Her voice trembled as she looked away, with closed eyes as if holding back intense feelings, and Asura realised... He messed up...
"Lorem... I'm sorry... I didn't mean to—" n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Get out! I don't want to hear it...!"
Seeing her tears falling to the ground, Asura silently left the room...
He knew he messed up big time... and needed to apologise to her... but he also felt confused. What if those memories were... a mere inheritance from the monoliths? If so, he was trampling on both of their hearts... but what if it wasn't?
His name, the feeling of it being him taking those actions... a sense of confusion filled his chest as he left the teacher's wing to find two people waiting for him.
It was the lovely Mu Xue with her calm purple eyes watching him happily while matching the dragoness beside her as they looked at him with teary eyes. Asura felt like they had been waiting to meet him for a while as Xavida recovered, and the two girls... Somehow seemed very close.
"You girls...?"
"Hehe, don't worry, Asura. Let's go back and eat something first. You look so pale. Me and Xavida did a lot of talking in the past week, and I know what happened..."
Mu Xue's face showed no signs of jealousy or the strange thing her eyes did; instead, she seemed balanced, as if the little dragoness beside her was completely fine!?
'What's going on!? She told me never to get new women!'
"Husband, sister Mu Xue taught me how to cook!"
Xavida proudly said as she held Mu Xue's hand, and Asura realised that the little dragoness had lost all traces of hostility and was now calling her sister!?
Women are scary...
He thought while walking with them towards his shared room with Mu Xue, her body pressed against him as she whispered into his ear.
"Fufu, are you shocked... at first, I wanted to gut her... but for the past week, she would visit Instructor Lorem, bringing you trinkets and gifts to recover faster... even her attempt at cooking..."
Her hand slipped into his while squeezing tightly and kissing his cheek.
"Honestly, she is too cute, and I realised how much she already loved you, so she swayed my heart. Don't neglect me, lover-boy~ I will punish you for nearly dying on me after we finally went all the way!"
Asura watched as the two girls became more excited and active, knowing he was fine being dragged around before they sat him down on the bed. The moment they reached the room, the little dragoness pointed at him with a huge smile.
"I will go cook now! Just wait to enjoy, hehe."
"Let me help you, Xavi." Mu Xue followed behind as they left him to his thoughts... He still couldn't believe he survived that moment... being beaten so badly and then awakening his new monolith...
"But how am I unscathed... Didn't my body get destroyed?.."
[Because you were reborn through the Rebirth Monolith and your flames of Nirvana] It was no longer Brian's voice, but the beautiful and gentle empress-like figure in his memories, Helia... He worried again about those memories and the things he saw, but her voice sounded again... making both his hearts beat faster.
[It was you. I had already done all the checks when you began speaking like him in your sleep... Or rather, from the moment I met you, I believed you were the same person.]
[Don't you think it's funny that your name means the same thing in the language of two countries... one is mine and the other Lorems...]
He was about to speak... but she interrupted him once again.
[Forgive me, but please... can you give her time? Despite being rough speaking and acting touch, Lorem is very brittle and sensitive.]
[Unlike me, sealed in these monoliths for aeons... She has lived a lonely life waiting, hoping that you might somehow survive and come to find her one day.]
'I understand... We all seem to need time...'
'Plus, I am Asura, not the Sura you knew... forgive me, but I won't be his second fiddle, even if it was my past life or incarnation.'
'Nice to meet you, Helia—thank you for the support so far. I hope you can continue doing so from here onwards.' [I understand Fufu... One day, you will realise why I am so happy to hear these words from you... for now. Nice to meet you, Asura Fenix—I have been watching you since you were born, my lovely little phoenix prince.]
