Velys nodded, she seemed to sense that Hikaru wasn't comforting her, it was more like he was simply telling her the truth.
After Velys fell asleep, Hikaru continued his journey.
He got dressed, then went to Laylah's room.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
There was a knock on the door, and the door suddenly opened just as Hikaru finished knocking.
He frowned and looked inside. Even though it was pitch dark inside, he still saw a person standing next to the bed.
Hikaru went inside and closed the door.
Suddenly, a candlelight was lit. The candlelight was a bit dim but it was enough for him to clearly see the person standing across from him.
At this time, Laylah was wearing a maid outfit, however, the skirt was very short as it only reached her mid-thigh. If she walked, the scenery inside her skirt would be revealed.
The shirt she wore was also not too discreet, in the middle of the chest there was a large hole, revealing a part of her two snow-white mountains, that was full of charm.
Laylah's snow-white face was starting to turn red from embarrassment.
Hikaru was shocked, as he never thought that Laylah would dare to wear that outfit.
Under the dim candlelight, Laylah became even more beautiful and seductive than usual. Combined with the stimulating outfit she was wearing, Laylah now looked like a wonderful dish that was inviting him to enjoy.
Laylah covered her chest with her hands, her face a little embarrassed as she said: "You... don't stare at me like that."
Hikaru took a deep breath.
Is that Laylah?
Why would she say such sweet and embarrassing words?
Could it be that... Laylah is really dead, has someone else taken over her body?
He couldn't believe that Laylah could make such an expression.
At this moment, future Laylah was completely silent and desperate. She herself had never worn such embarrassing outfits.
But now, the current Laylah was trying to please the person who will kill her in the future.
Moreover Laylah even had a shy expression like a girl in love, and this made future Laylah completely desperate, as she was unable to say anything more.
"Are you really wearing that?"
Hearing Hikaru's question, Laylah pursed her lips and nodded: "Um... you said... if I wear it, you will trust me more."
Hikaru: "..."
He shook his head and said: "Are you a child? Do you believe whatever I say?"
"But... Velys also believes everything you say."
Hikaru now walked up to Laylah, then sat on her bed.
Even though it was the end of the world, Laylah's bed was extremely clean, and it even smelled of seductive perfume.
Laylah pouted and said: "You... don't you find me attractive?"
"Of course I do." Hikaru shrugged and said: "However... I can't 'eat' you either."
"Huh! Don't think I don't know the truth, you just spent all your physical strength on Velys, so how can you 'fight' me?"
"Ah! You can try me..."
Laylah pursed her lips tightly, suddenly, her heartbeat accelerated, her body felt hot, and her face turned red like a block of embers.
"You... can you really still continue?" Laylah asked somewhat doubtfully.
"Of course. Like I said, you can try me. Are you afraid? Hikaru laughed, his voice filled with provocation and teasing.
"No! No! No!" Future Laylah screamed: "You... stop, what the hell are you planning on doing?"
After that, their fun continued.
...
Outside, Aiko stood with her ear pressed against the door, clearly hearing the lewd sounds echoing inside.
In fact, the soundproofing in this place was quite poor. Plus, this place was extremely quiet, so any sound that comes out from a room becomes quite easy to hear.
Aiko covered her mouth with both hands, completely unaware that Laylah would also become Hikaru's woman.
'Am I the only one who hasn't decided yet?'
'Could it be... I'm the one who will be isolated in this place?'
'But... he doesn't consider me his woman. He only sees me as his slave.'
'What should I do?'
'Should I go back to Rakan?'
'No! I have suffered for more than 15 years, I don't want to continue suffering anymore.'
'But... if I leave this place, where will I go?'
Suddenly, Aiko remembered what Velys said.
"Aiko, the world order has broken down, whoever is strong, makes the law."
"In this place, Hikaru is the king. Do you want to go out there and fight the harshness of the apocalypse?"
Aiko bowed her head, not knowing what to say. She suddenly became confused and hopeless about her future.
To become a toy in the hands of others or to survive on my own in the apocalypse, I must choose one of these two options.
Although she liked Hikaru a little, he had too many women, which made Aiko's monogamy mentality intolerable.
But... in this place, she felt Velys' respect, she felt the warmth of the atmosphere, and she ate delicious food.
Even though it was the end of the world, life in this place was very good, and she was even happier than when she was in Rakan's house.
Aiko sighed, then left, carrying countless questions and worries.
...
Elsewhere, on the highway leading to Ukko city, a convoy of more than 20 vehicles was stopped in the middle of the road.
A group of about 50 people gathered on the side of the road, huddled in cold clothes.
There was a lot of snow, and there was snow on their heads and shoulders.
Delmor and Akiko stood facing those people. Delmor's expression was extremely uncomfortable. He frowned and said: "Are you saying you don't want to follow me to Ukko city?"
"At first you all agreed with my plan, now you've changed your mind."
"So... what do you all want?"
"Huh!" An angry young man shouted: "At first we all thought that this trip would be easy thanks to adequate food."
"But the more I drove, the more snow fell. The road surface is slippery, and the tyres cannot move."
"Even the front of the car is covered by snow, we cannot move by car. But you say we should abandon the car and walk, are you crazy?
"That's right." Another person said: "In terrible weather like this, traveling by car is difficult, walking is even more impossible."
"Why is it impossible?" Delmor frowned and said: "There are only 10 kilometers left to reach Ukko city, can't you guys walk another 10 kilometers?"
"This is the end of the world, not an ordinary era. If we don't have a car, we have to walk. What are you looking forward to? Can a bus route take us where we want to go?"
"Or a plane with a heater and plenty of food? I hope you can see reality clearly. This is the end of the world, not an amusement park, put away your unreasonable demands and get to work."
