Reborn as an Evolving Space Monster: Harem Of Otherworldly Beauties-Chapter 344: Get A Room Next Time, Ey?
"I'm too good a person to spy on them. Too good a person. Too good a person… I am, aren't I?" Kris mumbled to himself, standing right in front of the door to Cero and Liz's room. "Why am I thinking about this as their room? This is a Karaoke spot, not a love hotel. They wouldn't… Yeah, I'm sure they wouldn't…"
Kris took one step away from the door.
The next moment, his ear was stuck against it.
"No way they would, right? I can only hear music so-"
The door opened.
Kris had just enough time to take three steps away from the door.
His gaze went to Cero first, then to Liz.
'Wha-'
Her hair was disheveled. Drops of sweat were hanging on her forehead. She was breathing heavily. Liz was out of breath…
"Kris?"
He snapped out of it upon his name being called.
"Y-Yes, Cero?"
"Um…?"
"Oh, right! I'm here because, um… My song is over! I got a 91! Heheheheee…"
"Cool," Cero took a step back and pointed at the holographic screen.
[Score: 92/100.]
"Wha-"
The shock that Kris felt at this reveal completely overshadowed that he felt seeing Liz like that after locking herself in a room with Cero.
"H-How did you… Wha-"
"Guess you need to do some training before challenging me again, huh?"
"I… Wait, that's a duet! You sang a duet! They're scored differently! Wait… You sang a duet?"
"Yeah, we did!" Liz shouted as she sighed. "And he made me do all the heavy lifting!"
Kris and Cero locked eyes for a moment, and the former smirked.
"As he should."
"Period."
"You go, King."
"If she doesn't do the heavy lifting, then who will?"
"I know, right? Cero deserves Prince treatment."
"Thank you."
"Of course. You're a ten, so you deserve the treatment of a ten."
'I don't like this.' Liz frowned. 'We're the ones who usually mess with people… Teaming up with your friend to mess with your wife… Men are so cruel.'
They ended up spending another hour there.
'That was fun, I guess...' Liz sighed as they walked out of the establishment. 'They're probably leaving, so I'll finally be alone with Cero-'
Unfortunately for Liz, the plans with Kris weren't nearly over.
After Karaoke, they went shopping, stopped for a bite, spent some time at a nearby amusement park ran by the Red Dragon's gals, stopped at a trendy café that was filled with cute pets, went for drinks, then walked into a butler café in which, as the name implies, the waittresses are dressed and act like butlers.
'Wha… The… Hell…?' An exhausted Liz complained internally. 'Cero seems to be having fun, so I don't want to mess it up for him, but… What the hell?'
The Red Dragon members were just as exhausted.
'L-Looks like… Even Elizabeth… Vinacci… Has her… Limits…'
'I can't believe the Young Heir…'
'And Cero… Are still… Having fun…' Liz sighed. 'God, I'm so tired.'
Cero scratched his cheek, noticing his wife was hitting her limit.
'I usually get her exhausted in different ways but…'
"You just thought something dirty, didn't you?" Kris pointed right at him.
"Did not."
"Yeah, you did! Hahaha!"
"Yeah, I did."
"Hahaha!"
'Kris is reading his mind? What the fuck?'
***
"You s-sure?" Kris asked with his teeth clenched. He was standing on a bench.
He was placing all of his weight backward, pushing with all his strength.
"Yep." Cero answered. His back didn't budge, no matter how much Kris pushed with his own back. "Time for us to leave. "You'll be fine with them, right? It's getting dark."
"Of course." Kris nodded. "If they so much as graze me, my mom will have them hanged."
"They would deserve it," Cero chuckled. "Well, except if you want them to-"
"Cero!"
"Alright, alright."
"I'll see you at the Banquet, then?"
"Yep."
Kris remained silent for a bit.
"Mom said you're leaving Wor after that."
"News travels fast, huh?"
"I know that we're not as close as you are with… Well, obviously. After all, you are-"
"Are sleeping together?" A moment later, "Ouch." Cero chuckled as Kris's elbow hit his back.
"After all, you are in relationships together."
"Right."
"Well…" Kris scratched his head. "I'm still going to miss you."
"Yeah, I'll miss you too. Won't be gone for too long though."
"About a month, right?"
"Even the details travel fast."
"Hm…" Kris pushed himself off Cero's back and turned around.
Cero turned around as well.
"Be careful out there, okay?"
"Of course. I'll have Roka protecting me anyway, so…"
"Oho. That's why it's not too late, huh?"
"..."
"You did surprise me though."
"I bet."
"No, I mean… About Roka. I really thought the two of you… Well, anyways."
"Yep, anyways."
"If you need anything." Kris said while pointing at him.
"Sure." Cero chuckled.
"I'm serious. I'll make my eyes reaaaally round and watery, then Mom won't be able to say no. If you need help with anything, you call me, okay? Okay?"
"Fine, yes. I'll call you if I need anything."
"Good." Kris nodded. "So… Are you going home with Liz or-"
"Good night, Kris."
"Oh, come on. I just want some spicy details."
"I hope you sleep well, see you at the Banquet."
"Nooo! I need to know!"
Cero scratched his head.
"I'm surprised you're not that close with Rea."
"Why do you say that?"
"Well, when the subject goes to… When the subject goes there, I think the two of you would have a lot to talk about."
"Nahahaha." Kris laughed while hiding his mouth with a hand. "Well, too much of a good thing is a bad thing, right?"
"Opposites attract."
"Hm!" He chuckled. "Plus, the guys didn't get along with her too well, so I guess I kind of stayed away. We're in business together now, so we'll be good friends from now."
"Yeah." Cero nodded. 'Hope she doesn't take advantage of Kris's kindness… Well, as long as it's not too much…'
Kris excused himself a couple of minutes later. He only left after giving Cero a really tight hug.
They waved at one another while Kris walked away.
Liz awkwardly walked to join Cero's side.
"Get a room next time, ey?"
"Are you jealous of Kris?"
"I AM NOT!"
