Chapter 87. Curiosity

89 Chapter 87. Curiosity

Something that tickled my thighs began to wake me up from my sleep.

"Ng ..." I flinched. That tingling sensation disappeared and I went back to sleep. A few seconds later that tingling sensation came again.

"Ng..." And this time to my crotch.

"Nggh ..." I let out a soft moan as I opened my eyes and glanced down, finding out that tingling came from Foxy who had returned to her original form. She was asleep on my feet, her tail occasionally swayed around my thighs, legs and groin. While my cock was half hard.

"Foxy, Foxy, wake up," I tried to wake her up in a low voice, my hand gripping her shoulder and shaking her. Celia was still sleeping next to me. She would be surprised if she found Foxy was sleeping with us.

Foxy yawned and sat on the bed with half sleepy eyes, her hand rubbing against one of them.

"Good morning, master," she said.

I put my index finger in front of my lips, asked her to be quiet and pointed at Celia who was still fast asleep beside me.

She immediately closed her mouth and nodded.

"Ngggh," Celia's voice accompanied by a movement beside me startled us.

- Puff!

Reflexivety, Foxy turned to a pillow again as Celia woke up from her sleep.

"Morning, brother," she said in a half sleepy tone.

"Morning, Celia." I glanced at the clock.

08.06 AM.

"I think we should wake up now."

She turned to the clock.

"You're right, I haven't prepared our breakfast yet," she said as she got out of bed and walked to the door.

"Celia," I called out her name.

She stopped her steps and turned to me.

"Let's have breakfast outside. It's been awhile since you ate your favourite pancakes," I said. She liked pancakes at a small cafe nearby and we hadn't been there since our father's death.

A smile appeared on her lips.

"Okay, then I'll get ready," she said excitedly.

As soon as Celia came out of my room, Foxy returned to her original form.

- Puff!

"Pancakes? What's that?" she asked.

"It's a soft flat cake. Usually eaten with sweet maple syrup," I said as I got out of bed.

Foxy also got out of bed and stood on the other side of the bed. While I was tidying it up.

"Can I have one?" Her tail started wagging in excitement. Her eyes glinted with curiosity.

"I'll let you taste it, but I'm not sure you'll like it."

"Come on, let's start our date," she said excitedly. Her face looked so happy.

"Isn't this too early to be called a date?" Our feet stepped toward the front of the exit and put on our shoes.

She scowled.

"It still counts as a date." After she finished putting on her shoes, she pulled me excitedly.

"Come on."

"Wait." I tied my shoelaces quickly and stood up.

After locking the door, we walked down the street in front of our house to Peace Blossom Square, a shopping district in our town. I glanced at Celia who walked happily next to me.

'Too bad, I can't take her with my portal skill.' Then I turned my gaze to the clear morning sky.

'But thank goodness the weather is perfect for a walk.'

Meanwhile, I could feel Foxy occasionally moving over my head. I was guessing she was too excited because it was her first time walking around in the human world.

When we passed Mrs Clea's house, my gaze turned to it, wishing I could see her from the window, but unfortunately I didn't. My wild guess bothered me a lot but I couldn't confirm it before checking her with my observation skill. Considering that Celia also talked to her a lot, I decided to ask her.

"Celia, have you met Mrs Clea recently?"

She shook her head.

"She's been at her house more often lately. I rarely meet her when I go to the market."

"Have you seen anything unusual about her?"

"What do you mean?" she frowned.

"Like ... people in weird uniforms or demon hunters?"

"Why are the demon hunters going to her house?" she was even more confused. But suddenly she remembered something.

"I remember, a few days ago I saw her get out from a car wearing a black mourning dress."

'Mourning dress? Did her husband die? '

"When did you see it?" I asked again.

Celia lowered her head to hide her face that was flushed with embarrassment.

"It was the same day when you saved me from Bern."

My heart started beating fast, since I could remember it was the day when I died and also my father's memorial day. My suspicions were rising but still I couldn't accuse her of anything before I checked her, it could be just a coincidence.

"- ther! Brother!" Celia's voice broke my thoughts.

I turned to her.

"Yes?"

"What's wrong with you? Why do you look confused?" She looked at me worriedly.

"I'm just thinking about something." I gave her a reassuring smile.

"We haven't visited Dad's grave again. Shall we go there next week?"

"That is a good idea." She drew close to me and smiled.

"Besides, I have a lot of things to tell him."
