49 Chapter 48. Two Opposite Sides Of A Coin

My eyes opened slowly, the view of my room's ceiling and the morning sunlight that penetrated the curtains became clearer in my sight. Today, I woke up with a slightly different state than usual, my heart was beating fast and ... my cock was tense. I don't remember how long it has been since the last time I woke up like this.

I tried to get up to check the clock and ignore my morning wood, but something heavy and warm pressed against my body. My eyes glanced at Celia who was still sleeping comfortably beside me. Her sweet and innocent face is right in front of mine. My heart was beating harder and harder as I could feel her soft breast pressing against mine, her warmth and scent tickling my nose. My face started to turn red as my mind began to remember what we did two days ago.it, what am I thinking?' I tried to get up, avoiding the situation turning out of hand for me.

As I just slightly moved, she snuggled closer to me.

"Mmmpp ..." A soft moan came out of her mouth. Her hands hugged me tighter, as if not letting me go anywhere before she woke up.

I swallowed hard as my mind started to run wild. Well, my body is hot now, we are in same blanket and she only wears her thin sleepwear, moreover, Celia never wears a bra while sleeping. So ... There's no way I can keep my mind calm especially after what we did two days ago, I'm not a saint.

Just as that thought crossed my head, my gaze was shifted on the clock.

8:41 AM

"Oh shit!" I screamed as I jumped out of the bed in a panic, even Celia woke up in surprise because of me.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Celia asked in confusion. Her eyes that were still half open stared at me.

"I have a class at 09.00 AM!" I said as I ran to the bathroom.

"09.00 AM?" She turned to the clock.

"You're late!" she screamed. Of course, she thought that way because it took me almost half an hour to get to my college by train.

"Not yet!" I shouted. My hand closed the bathroom door.

It was the fastest shower I've ever had. My hand grabbed the towel, put it on around my waist and ran back to my room. I took my clothes from the wardrobe in panic and took off my towel.

"Kyaaaa ----! Brother, what are you doing?!" screamed Celia as she turned around and covered her blushing face. I know she's still here to make up my bed but I don't care. My time is tight, after all, didn't she already see all of it two days ago?

"This is my room! Of course, I'm changing here." My hands continued to move, putting in my t-shirt and jeans as quickly as I could. My eyes glanced at the clock.

8:52 AM

My time is running out ...

I grabbed my bag.

'Portal.'

[Set your destination.]

'West corner of Diamond College's courtyard.'

[The destination has been set.]

A portal that resembled a small black hole opened in front of me.

[The portal has opened! ]

Quickly, my feet stepped into the portal. Darkness engulfed me. As soon as I stepped into the light, I took my head out of the portal and looked around, making sure no one was around, also making sure I wasn't in the wrong place.

I just stepped my feet out of the portal after everything was safe.

[The portal has closed! ]

Without wasting time anymore, I ran towards my classroom and opened the door.

8:57 AM

'Yeah! Just in time! My decision to raise my portal skills was right! '

I entered the classroom and took a seat, my eyes looked around the quiet room even though the class was almost starting, even Larry had not come yet. Today is actually just a replacement class because my lecturer couldn't come last Monday, the reason is he has an urgent matter to take care of, but based on his last post on his PaceBook I know he was hanging out with his girlfriend. I don't know what he thought by trying to deceive the students but still uploaded his photo on social media.

My gaze fixed on one of my classmates, a second later some information appeared above her head as my vision skill activated automatically.

"Why do you look at me like that?" he said with a disgusted expression. The look in his eyes was similar to a high schooler girl staring at a creep.

"Nothing." I shifted my gaze forward before he misunderstood me.

"How about your last night's hunting results?" Since I already knew he was a demon hunter, so I'm sure what he meant by hunting monsters every night is he patrolled like Emma. Honestly, I thought he's just playing a video game when he says it because Larry is a heavy gamer. He barely graduated due to playing too many video games when he was in junior high school.

A proud smile appeared on his face, making him look like a creep that had just found his prey. Now I'm the one who looking at him with a disgust expression.

"Of course I won again! You know that annoying person I told you yesterday? His hunting results were 3! And do you want to know mine? 9! Wahahaha!"

"Larry! You're too loud!" complained the others.

Larry raised his hand to apologise.

"Ah, sorry. My bad." He returned his gaze at me.

"You should see his face ... pfftt --- pppfftttt!" he held back his laughter.

"Did you meet him yesterday?" I asked. I'm not sure he could say that to me, it looks like he blurted out without second thought.

As expected, his face turned panicked.

"I mean his character's face," he reasoned.

"Is a game character can show expression now?" I teased.

His face looked even more panicked.

"I mean --- his voice. Yes, his voice!" he tried to convince me.

"Oh, okay. Then?" I asked him to continue his story.

"Last night he and his friend were called before my guild leader. It looks like something important has happened." Suddenly his face turned serious.

I frowned in curiosity as a guess crossed my mind, but instead of asking it outright, I asked something else that could be a hint for me.

"What's happened?"

He shrugged, indicating he didn't know.

"What I know, last night he brought some guild members to help his friend slaughter some monsters but somehow he came back empty-handed."

From his words, I think I knew who the annoying person he was referring to. I couldn't really blame Larry for this, because Theo's attitude was indeed annoying.

"Just be careful, okay?" I said suddenly.

He looked surprised at my words since usually, I would nag him like an old man if he rambled about games.

"What is wrong with you?" he asked in confusion.

"I'm tired of nagging you like an old man. The most important thing is you have to take care of your health." Actually what I mean is he has to take care of himself because there will be more demons hanging around after this, but I can't say it openly.

"Take it easy!" He puffed out his chest and showed his proud face again.

"Nothing can beat me!" he said confidently.

Just as the words left his mouth, an announcement was heard.

* Ting Tong *

"Attention, please! Today's management class is cancelled and will be replaced next week."

"Haaaahhh ???" The students' disappointed voice echoed throughout the room like an orchestra. Soon my classmates left the class with annoyed faces, including Larry and me.

"What are you going to do now?" asked Larry as he walked beside me.

"I'm going to the cafeteria to grab some food. Do you want to come?" I offered him.

"Okay!" He clamped my shoulder with one hand and pulled me closer. While I quickly covered my nose in reflex.

"Larry Grandroar's next mission is accompany Ethan to the cafeteria!" he said excitedly.

Haaa... It looks like I was wrong. He's still acting like a kid.
