"One more."

Sophia sat on Nero's thighs and fed him one more fruit.

"That girl was giving me a weird look after I took her saliva," Sophia commented.

"You should get used to 'weird looks' by now."

Sophia licked the juice from Nero's lips and uttered, "Well, what Emilia said was more weird."

Nero grabbed a fruit to feed Sophia and asked, "What did she say?"

Nero moved the fruit towards Sophia's mouth and prepared to squeeze it, but waited for Sophia to answer his question.

"When we were coming back, Emilia said, 'Playing with the kids was fun, wasn't it?. And I replied with 'Yeah'. Then she said, 'I want to have Nero's kids.' I didn't know what to say in reply, so I kept—" 

After hearing that, Nero lost control and ended up squeezing the fruit, and the juice spilled all over Sophia's face.

"Zeus!" Sophia screamed.

Nero tapped his finger on Sophia's forehead, and all the juice gathered around his finger. He then moved that finger to his mouth and drank everything.

Sophia stared at Nero as he drank and said, "That was disgusting."

Nero didn't know what exactly Sophia meant by disgusting. Was it because the juice spilled on her face? Or was it because he drank that spilled juice? In either case, Nero wasn't interested to know that.

"What else did she say?" Nero asked.

"Nothing."

Nero clenched his teeth and said, "You should have told her that it ain't gonna happen."

"I am not telling her that," Sophia retorted.

"Sophi, we are on a journey, and who knows what might happen in the future. There are so many things we need to do and… if I start making children…" Nero couldn't complete his sentence.

There were many reasons why Nero couldn't impregnate Emilia, and one of the reasons was they needed to travel constantly. And if Emilia was pregnant, Nero would have no other choice to leave Emilia behind under someone's care, and that was the only thing he couldn't do. Nero could no longer live without Emilia, and both Nero and Sophia were aware of that.

SIGH~!

He sighed and fed some fruits to Sophia.

THUD! THUD!

A noise came from the bushes. Nero immediately turned around and prepared to snap— but noticed it was Emilia, and she had just dropped some fruits.

"Since how long have you been there?" Nero asked with a tense look on his face.

"I just got here."

Emilia carried the fruits and placed them near the trunk. "This should be enough, I guess?"

"How many, 40?" Nero questioned.

"32."

"You are going to eat that many?" Sophia questioned with a surprised look on her face.

"Nero will feed me." Emilia smiled at Nero and added, "Mouth to mouth."

'She is acting normally, so it seems she didn't hear our talk,' Nero thought.

The last thing Nero wanted to do was hurt Emilia— emotionally or physically. And he was afraid of that.

Once Nero and Emilia were done feeding each other mouth to mouth, Emilia laid down and rested her head on Nero's lap.

"I am full," she said.

"Same," Nero affirmed.

Sophia had also drank ten fruits, but she was still a little hungry.

"Shall I go and get some more fruit for you?" Nero asked.

"I am fed up with them, so no more fruit, please," Sophia groaned.

"It's ironic how I have enough money to buy a town, but I am still camping in the forest and eating fruits," Nero joked.

"Then you should have accepted the nun's offer when she asked us to spend the night in the church," Sophia remarked.

"There was no way I was spending my night in the church with a bunch of kids."

"Why not? They were so cute." Emilia glanced at Nero from his lap and continued with a wry smile on her face, "I wanted to spend some more time with them."

"Just to remind you, if we had stayed the night there, we wouldn't be able to have sex, you know?" Nero pointed out one of the reasons for not staying at the church.

"I would have held back my moans," Emilia replied nonchalantly.

"..."

'The choice of not doing it didn't cross her mind?' Nero and Sophia had the same thought. Sometimes Nero truly wondered if Emilia was an airhead before he met her. 

However, that wasn't the only reason Nero didn't want to spend the night at the church. There were many other reasons, though most of them were just his selfish reasons.

Nero was terrible with the kids from the beginning. Even when he was a kid, he wouldn't get along with the kids even though they were the same age as him, and the reason was that he wasn't a kid from inside.

He had never tried to hide or acted like a kid to deceive others. In fact, he had told everything to his godmother, who was the closest person to Nero. Although, at that time, he had no idea how his peaceful life would turn upside down and what would bring him where he was now— with Emilia.

"What about you, Sophi? Aren't you hungry? I can go catch something real quick using my—"

"It's fine. I was saving some space for later." Sophia closed her distance with Nero, then rested her head on Nero's shoulder and looked at Emilia on his lap.

"For what?" Nero wondered with a puzzled look on his face.

Sophia smiled and rubbed Nero's crotch and said, "For this juice."

Nero was utterly bewildered as he never expected to hear such a pervy line from Sophia. He furrowed his brows and turned to Sophia.

"Should I call you Emilia 2.0 from now on?"

Sophia smiled and sat on Nero's lap, pushing Emilia aside, "Get off now. Zeus is mine tonight."

"I am better than you in every way, and you can never satisfy Nero as I do, so 'you' get off!" Emilia tried to push Sophia.

Nero watched as Emilia and Sophia fought and couldn't help but wonder and think how Emilia and Sophia's relationship was now. They would get along surprisingly well for a moment as though they were sworn sisters, and the next moment they would fight as though they were sworn enemies.

Nero was genuinely glad Sophia was now straightforward and open with Nero, unlike in the past where she was always silent and did things she never wanted to.
