He didn't know how much time had passed, but Emery awakened from his slumber with the strangest feeling welling in his body. His head still felt as if he had just spun on the spot dozens of times, but this uncomfortable feeling was nothing compared to the memory that constantly popped in his mind.
Yes, he could remember it all.
The softest skin he ever came in contact with, the seductive touch, the red cherry lips, and every moment of release that came after. Emery remembered everything.
Emery would be a complete liar and hypocrite if he dared to say he did not enjoy those things. He had always been uptight about such matters, therefore being able to do whatever his flesh desired was certainly an exhilarating experience.
But now, seeing the two naked figures sleeping soundly next to him gave him a deeply troubled feeling. At this moment, Emery hadn't the faintest idea of what he should do or say when the two woke up.
However, before he did anything about it, Emery first controlled the spirit force within to check if there was still any toxin remaining in his body. A few seconds later, a sigh of relief came out of his mouth, as he found his body was in perfect health. In fact, it couldn't go much healthier as it was stronger than before.
[Emery Ambrose]
[Battle Power: 148(152)]
[Spirit force: 954(961)]
Emery's eyes widened as he saw how much he had improved in such a short period of time. It was a huge permanent increase, certainly worthy of a tier 5 ingredient.
However, the fact still stood that he did not know what to do about the two girls lying next to him.
Emery's mind quickly ran towards a certain girl back in the academy, who would certainly be furious, or worse, disappointed with him if she knew about this matter.
Without even realizing it, Emery let out a sigh. This made the red-haired girl wake from her sound slumber.
Emery watched her slowly getting up next to him, clueless about what he should do. Her fiery hair covered only a bit of her chest and therefore her beautiful mountain and its peaks lay bare for eyes to see.
It took her a second to realize what happened. The next second she screamed what was probably the loudest scream Emery had ever heard.
"AAAAA!!! What the fuck!!! What the hell did you do to me!?"
Emery was silent, he really had nothing to say. He had no energy to fight, or to defend himself. In fact, if the girl somehow decided to puncture a knife into his chest to erase the humiliation she felt, he would probably not mind at all.
In the blink of an eye, Annara grabbed a blanket and covered her body with it. She quickly stood up, glaring daggers at Emery. But then, her expression that contained confusion, panic, and resentment gradually changed, turning into one of that enlightenment.
Just like Emery, it appeared the memory of the experience had come back to her. But what Emery didn't expect was to see the girl blushed and her face turn visibly red.
Her deafening scream just now had also finally woken up the other slumbering person, Silva.
The girl who had woken up slowly put her arm on her head, probably because of the uncomfortable dizziness Emery experienced earlier as well. However, she didn't act as hysterical as Annara did. She just kept quiet and didn't say a word, which honestly scared Emery even more.
This situation went on for a few more seconds, before Emery finally couldn't take it anymore and slowly whispered. "Silva… I... I am sorry… Are you okay?"
The white-haired girl still didn't say anything. She just took a glance at him. Her alluring body was still exposed, but she seemed totally unconcerned about it.
Emery wanted to speak more, when he suddenly saw a certain sorrow in her eyes, causing him to swallow back the words he was about to say. Then, she slowly stood up, picked up her scattered clothes and put them on before leaving the room. She still didn't say anything during the whole process.
Both Emery and Annara were so shocked by Silva's reaction they didn't react until she left the room. The two looked at each other and could see the dismay in their eyes.
The red-haired girl, however, seemed to still be angry with him, as evident from the words she spoke.
"Huh! You.. certainly had a good time, didn't you!?" She scoffed. "Lucky guy, aren't you?"
Emery looked at the girl with an apologetic look, "I'm sorry to you too."
When she heard Emery's words, the girl seemed to be a little disappointed.
"Well... In the first place, it wasn't really your fault… but still…"
Emery let out a long sigh, for he also knew what she meant. They couldn't act as if those things had never happened.
So, he got up and put on his clothes after picking them all up. Emery was about to go and find Silva, when Annara, for some reason, stopped him in his tracks.
"So what are you going to do about this?"
Emery turned to her and asked, "What do you mean?"
"It's exactly what I mean," was the reply she gave him.
"I don't know. What do you want me to do?"
A pondering expression appeared on her face before saying, "Well let's say you owe me one and I will forgive you. How's that sound…?"
An expression of disbelief appeared on Emery's face for a moment. This girl really was an opportunist. Luckily for her Emery had no strength to argue. So, he just nodded his head, conceding in hopes it would put away some burden from his heart - but apparently it didn't.
Unaware of the turmoil in Emery's heart, Annara happily said, "Good! You better keep your word! You owe me one!" She even went on and spoke things that honestly left Emery speechless. "You know… It's actually quite a good one… Maybe if you treat me better, I will agree to do it again sometimes."
The girl chuckled and swiftly left the room, leaving a dumbfounded Emery, who was still processing what he had just heard. Moments later, the only response he could muster was a dry laugh.
Emery shook his head and followed her out of the room. He tried to find Silva and found her sitting on the sandy beach staring at the boundless sea.
He slowly approached her and silently sat next to her.
The girl still didn't say a word, even though she clearly knew he was next to her.
Emery couldn't and didn't have the words to say either. This situation where the two of them just sat there went on for hours, before Annara finally came up to them with a disgruntled look.
"Stop with all this drama, will you? And make me some food!"
