The sun was about to rise, and the birds had already started waking up. There was nothing but silence for a while as Nero stared at the figure.
"Do you… hate me for abandoning you?"
"Yeah, I hate you. But I hate myself more for not doing anything to save you."
"I am sorry, my son. Please forgive me."
"I won't… I won't forgive you. I am going to reject your words... Mama." Nero took a deep breath, then said, "I can't become— I can't grow like you wanted me to be. I am done being a good person now, and I will become what you feared of the most."
The figure looked at Nero as though it could see through the cloak. "One day."
Nero glanced at the figure.
"When the seas drown themselves, when trees wither themselves, when the clouds cover themselves, when the sun burns itself, when the moons hide themselves, when the stars lose their shine, when the angels blinds themselves with their light, when the demons kill themselves, when the heavens burn over and the hells freeze over, when the world ends itself... you and—"
"Stop it!" Nero interrupted the figure. "Don't say anything anymore."
He smiled gently while looking at the figure, "I don't want another last word."
The hood of the cloak dispersed, and it revealed the beautiful face of his mother. She looked at Nero as tears rolled down her cheeks, "Zeus...." She smiled gently, "Live, my son." her voice was fading away.
"You too." Nero clenched his teeth before saying, "Don't show your face again."
The figure slowly vanished into thin air, and a light orb appeared. It hovered around for a while and went inside the bracelet Nero wore on his wrist. Then a tiny pearl inside the bracelet broke into two pieces and fell to the ground.
Nero picked it up with his thumb and index finger— like a pinch, and raised his hand, then looked at the pearl. After looking at it, he opened his mouth and ate it, then swallowed it.
He then rested his head on the tree and muttered, "Goodbye, mama."
"Umm," Emilia moved a little on Nero's lap, then looked at Nero as she rubbed her eyes.
"Hello," Emilia said with a cheerful smile on her face.
"What happened to you? You went silent all of a sudden. I was worried, you know?" It was Nero's first time drinking the blood directly from someone's neck.
"It felt so good that I fell asleep."
Nero sighed in relief and commented, "Your moans were great, by the way. They aroused me more while sucking your blood."
Nero saw his bite mark on Emilia's neck and swiped his thumb on it— and the mark disappeared.
"Do you like it when I moan?" Emilia asked curiously.
"Your moans are louder when we have sex, though," Nero remarked as he squeezed Emilia's boobs.
Emilia didn't seem to mind it and moved her hands towards Nero's stomach and started tickling him.
Nero could easily control his laugh, but he chose to laugh for Emilia.
He looked at Emilia's smiling face and wondered, 'I can't help but feel like I have known her for forever. She feels so nostalgic, like I have met her before, and maybe that's why I like being around her.'
Nero had the same thought when he saw Emilia smiling for the first time back in the prison realm.
"Stay still," Nero said as he raised his hand, and magic circles appeared before the tips of his fingers. They were purple-colored magic circles, and they revolved around Nero's fingers. He moved his hand towards Emilia's head, and instead of turning red— the magic circle broke.
'It broke, so it means she doesn't have any past memories, but that's not possible. There is no way there could be someone with no memories,' Nero pondered over it.
"Emilia, do you remember you asked me if there is anything I can't do?"
Emilia nodded a couple of times.
"There was one thing I couldn't do, no matter how hard I tried. But now, there is nothing I can't do."
Nero had finally bid a proper farewell to his mother, and he was free from his mother's last word. He had no need to follow them as he rejected her last will.
Emilia raised her hand and spoke, "I know two things you can't do."
"And that is?" Nero asked with a curious look on his face.
"You can't love and kiss."
Nero shook his head and decided to ignore Emilia, then looked up at the sky. "It's sunrise."
Emilia turned around and leaned her back on Nero's chest, "Isn't it beautiful?"
"Indeed."
"I will miss this sunrise."
"Then how about I make this your best sunrise ever?" Nero then snapped.
Emilia looked up at the sky and waited for something to happen, but nothing happened.
"Nothing is—" Emilia then finally noticed what Nero did.
Nero's clothes had disappeared, and Emilia could feel something hard on her hips. Her face flushed a little as she moved her hand back towards Nero's crotch, "It's so big."
Emilia got off from Nero's lap and turned around, then sat back on his lap— face to face. She moved her hand down, and after some rustling sound of skin rubbing against clothes, she moved up her body a little and sat down forcefully with an orgasmic and satisfied look on her face, "It's really so big, and it's inside me."
Emilia started moving up and down, and back and forth as Nero thought, 'What a pervert.'
"Anh!"
Nero moved his hands towards Emilia's chest and said, "At least take off your clothes first."
"It feels great!" Emilia kept shaking her hips as she started undressing, and as soon as her clothes were no longer in contact and connected to her magic, they dispersed.
Hundreds of miles away, at the top of the tallest mountain peak above the clouds, a hooded figure was standing beside a big white furry wolf— with almost the height of a human.
The figure's hand was patting the wolf, and it was looking in the direction where Nero and Emilia were dual-cultivating.
"Finally…" a female voice sounded from the figure.
She clenched the wolf's fur as her body trembled, "Finally, I found you, Zane."
"Though I hope I hadn't found him fucking some girl like that. Just wait for me, Zane. You are mine, and I won't let anyone else have you."
She then turned around and nudged the wolf, "Let's go. We have some unfinished business to take care of."
