Chapter 222: Familiar

Nero and Klee were lying naked on the ground. They both were out of breath, and everything around them was either destroyed or shattered, as though they had gone all out.

They had indeed gone all out without holding back, but not in a battle, but in a bed session.

They started it before the sun had risen, but now, it was almost another sunrise.

"Are you ready for another round?" Klee asked.

"I think… I think I am done… for now…" Nero muttered.

"It seems you enjoyed it." Klee's body was smeared with Nero's elixir.

Nero asked Klee if his father, the Cthulhu, knew about what they just did. But Klee replied that he was in deep sleep now.

Nero asked her why she wanted to mate with him. At first, Klee tried to dodge the question by mentioning Emilia and others, but Nero forced her to answer.

"I was lonely," she said with a sad look and a wry smile on her face.

"I have to say, so far, in my sex life, you are the best in everything. Your monster body can't beat anyone," Nero uttered his honest thoughts.

"I am happy to know that. But sadly, we will never meet again." Nero could feel the sadness in Klee's voice.

It has only been a day since Nero met Klee, and all they did was have sex nonstop. But the exchanges they had during their copulating were more than thousands of words. 

Nero could tell how down-to-earth Klee was. And deep down, he had a thought that Klee wanted to get rid of her life.

Klee was a mythical sea creature, and no human or even human with powers could win against the sea princess. Nero found it odd how easily they abducted Klee.

Most likely, Klee didn't want to hurt those humans, so she chose to suffer. However, when she found out about what they were going to do with her powers, Klee felt… hopeless.

That was when Nero came to save her. To her, Nero was her hero.

"Why are you saying this like we are never going to meet again?" Nero asked with quite a worried look on his face.

"Because you are going to leave this kingdom, right?" Klee asserted. "Then you are going to travel around the world, and you are never going to come again. And even if you did, I am sure you would have forgotten me by that."

Nero let out a soft chuckle and said, "I don't know why you are feeling so down, but for me, I am happy, very happy right now. Do you know why? Because I feel satisfied after having sex with you."

After a brief pause, he added, "And you better be satisfied too."

"I am," Klee uttered in a distant tone.

SIGH!

Nero sighed and sat up, then looked at Klee, who turned her face to the other side after Noticing Nero was looking at her. 

"I think you didn't understand what I was trying to say. What I want to say is…." He took a deep breath and asserted in a serious voice: "I need you. And before you ask why, I will answer it. I need you to have sex with me. I want you, so I can have sex with you whenever the rest of my girls are tired."

"So… I am like a backup for you?" Klee asked with a slight grin on her face.

"You bet you are!" Nero nodded with a smug look on his face. He stood up and said with a slight smirk on his face: "So go and pack up your bags. You are coming with me."

Klee bit her lips and forced a wry smile on her face when she looked at Nero. "I am genuinely happy you think of me as worthy of traveling with you, but I must reject your offer."

"Why….?" Nero couldn't believe his ears and eyes. "This might be the first time I have gotten rejected."

"No…" Klee shook her head and said, "I am not rejecting you. I… I… can't leave this sea. I get power from that. It's my life force. So if I stay away from it for a long time, I will slowly lose my powers and eventually die." Klee stated with a painful and sad expression on her face.

"Up until now, I honestly wouldn't have cared if I had died. I had nothing to do, nothing to look forward to. But now… I think I have a reason. The pleasure you gave me from sunrise to sunset, and night to sunrise…. I will never forget it."

"Klee…" Nero had a hunch that something similar might be the case.

"Now, I will live in this sea, see countless sailors and travelers being born and die. I will remember their lives in the sea, and then I will look back to my memories and remember you. Remember our time together."

Nero placed his hand on Klee's lips to stop her from speaking.

"Stop talking about all this sad shit!" He shouted. "My girls don't cry, and you are my girl, and you are not going to cry either."

"Mhmm!" Klee tried to say something, but Nero didn't take his hand off her lips.

"Listen to me, dammit. If the sea is your problem, then I have a perfect solution for you."

Klee's stiffed eyebrows got loose, and her gaze turned soft after hearing that. Nero then removed his hand from Klee's lips and said, "I have decided that I am going to make you my familiar."

Klee started crying after hearing that. She wanted to ask Nero about that, but she was afraid of being rejected, so she pushed herself aside.

"Klee, do you want to be my— Zeus', familiar?"

Klee nodded with tears in her eyes and hugged Nero. "Yes."

Author's note-Also, this novel's stats had dropped recently, so I was feeling a little depressed and unmotivated and chose to distract myself by writing a new novel. 

Thanks for reading.
