"Rhys!"
Rhys already had a fraction of Herakles's strength, and yet once again, he found himself almost falling down as Lina suddenly came out of nowhere and wrapped her arms around him.
No, she didn't just wrap her arms, she also wrapped her legs around his waist before she started kissing him on the lips. And as Lina was wearing a short skirt, the warmth of her thighs easily permeated through his thin white shirt.
"T..." And the only thing Katarina could really do was watch with twitching eyes, "Stop it!"
Of course, Katarina wasn't much of an observer as she pulled Lina away from Rhys like she was some sort of cat; prying her from his body.
"What the heck, Kat!?" Lina crossed her arms as soon as her feet touched the floor, "Am I not allowed to be excited that my hubby is back from the service!?"
"You can. But what do you mean you bought the apartment next door!?" Katarina raised her voice, "And why did you come from the window? We are on the 11th—no, in the first place, how did you know where Rhys lived? It's impossible he would contact you without calling me first."
"...What are you saying?" Lina raised an eyebrow, "It's in our group chat."
"Wh—" Katarina started checking her phone, only to see that the message truly was in their group chat, "I... thought she sent it to me privately."
"No, you dumb bitch. Seriously, and you're the doctor," Lina stuck out her tongue.
"But why did you have to buy 1107!? I was going to buy that so Rhys could have a bigger place." Katarina pointed at the left wall of the room.
"I bought 1105," Lina pointed at the right wall, "And just so you know, I put a downpayment on 1107 so no one else could get it. Just pay me back with interest, bitch."
"You... you did that?" Katarina could really only lower her voice as she looked at Lina. And if her face wasn't turning more smug by the second, she would have probably hugged her.
"Yes," Lina slightly stood on her toes to try and look down on Katarina, "Now bow down to your master."
"...No," Katarina waved her hand before turning around before suddenly stepping out of the room, "I'll just make sure you actually put a downpayment on it. Thanks."
"What was that? I didn't hear you!" And as a giggle escaped Lina's lips, Katarina responded with her middle finger before closing the door.
And as soon as she was gone, Lina wasted no time in taking off Rhys's shirt.
And before Katarina could confirm her suspicions, Lina confirmed it for her as she quickly but awkwardly ran to the bathroom. Katarina could really only shake her head as she sat on the bed.
"Rhys, I know you're at the age where you're really really healthy. But at least pick the time and place, please," Katarina rolled her eyes and sighed.
"I'm... sorry," Rhys also sat on the bed since there was nowhere else to sit.
'At least use some of that energy in me.'
"Did... you say something?" Rhys quickly looked at Katarina, only to see her with her eyebrows still lowered.
"I said don't have sex with just anyon—I mean anywhere," Katarina once again sighed as she crossed her arms; causing her gigantic-sized breasts to almost pop out of her shirt, "I'm your doctor, Rhys. I'd advise you proper hygiene."
"Hey, I will have you know that I am very clean down there!"
"Shut up!" And once again, Rhys hears Katarina's gentle voice suddenly shifting whenever she addresses Lina — he had really only heard her talking like that with her.
"The two of you... have become really close," Rhys said.
"What do you mean clo—" Katarina was about to click her tongue. But as soon as she saw the faint smile on Rhys's face, she just sighed and held his hand, "Enough about me and Lina...
...what's your plan now?"
"Explorer Academy," Rhys grabbed the paper he put to the side when he and Lina started doing the deed, "I need to take supplementary classes for a week."
"I'll come with you," Lina said as she stepped out of the bathroom; patting her skirt as she stood in front of the bed, "I know someone from the local Academy, and it's just one station away."
"I can also help him with that," Katarina also stood up, "I know a friend from the Academy too."
"I think it would be best for me to help him," Lina sighed, "When did you even graduate from the Academy? 20 years ago or something?"
"What did you say? I will have you know that..."
And as the two once again started arguing, Rhys took it upon himself to just...
...leave the two and go by himself.
