Chapter 393 Chapter 392- Homecoming
Zach walked towards the exit of Aria’s domain while carrying Aurora like a princess in his arms.
“Oh.. right.”
He looked back and said, “Milo, come. We are leaving.”
Within a few seconds, Milo flew across the sky and landed beside Zach.
“Where to, master?” Milo asked.
Zach pondered for a few seconds as he didn’t know what to call that place. But after a while, he smiled slightly and said:
“To home.”
“Hmm?”
“You have never been there, right? So just Follow my lead.”
Zach walked out of the portal and uttered, “Cerberus.”
[At your command, my liege!] Cerberus said excitedly.
He had never come out so fast as he did just now. Seemingly, he was waiting for Zach to call him out for a ride.
“Wow… you have grown so much…” Aurora muttered.
[All thanks to my liege’s grace!]
Cerberus placed his paw and head on the ground so Zach could climb on him easily.
“Come, Milo,” Zach gestured to her.
Milo locked her eyes with Cerberus and said, “I would rather fly on my own.”
“…okay.”
Zach got on Cerberus, and Milo flew as Cerberus ran. Halfway through the portal of the realm, Cerberus increased his speed as Milo got ahead of him.
Cerberus and Milo were having a competition to assert their dominance.
Zach was holding tightly onto Aurora, so he didn’t have to worry about her falling off. However, Zach wanted a medium-paced ride.
“Cerberus, run slowly so Aurora can see the scenery of the higher realms,” Zach ordered.
Cerberus slowed down on Zach’s command and said, [As your wish, my liege.]
If Cerberus wanted, he could travel in the shadows and defeat Milo effortlessly if he wished to. However, he took it slow because Zach was with Aurora.
Milo also slowed down as the reason she flew fast was that Cerberus was ahead of her at first.
After half an hour, they reached the portal.
“What do you want to do, Aurora?” Zach asked calmly. “We can descend directly to the second realm. Or we can descend one realm at a time and enjoy the sceneries of this beautiful world?”
“I… don’t know. A part of me wants to enjoy this date with you, but the other part of me wants to meet Aria and Victoria as soon as possible.”
“Well, choose one. I will do as you say.”
Aurora puckered her lips and puffed her cheeks after hearing that. She looked up at Zach and said, “That’s like choosing between fingering and kissing.”
“I can do both at once. So give another example.”
Aurora puffed her cheeks even more and squinted her eyes.
“Okay, okay.” Zach poked her puffed cheeks and then moved his hands to squeeze her breasts as he said, “We will go home first then. We can do sightseeing at any time.”
“Hmm.”
“Cerberus.”
[I heard you, my liege.]
Cerberus descended to Zach’s realm and waited for Milo to pass through.
‘She should be able to pass through as the undead could, too,’ Zach uttered inwardly.
“Milo?” he called out to her.
“I am here, master.”
Zach looked up in the sky and saw Milo flying high sky, unlike above the ground.
“Why are you there?” he asked.
“This place has more players compared to the higher ones. I don’t want to run into them, so I will follow you from the sky.”
“Alright.” Zach patted Cerberus and said, “Let’s go.”
As Cerberus passed through the streets and buildings, the NPCs and players stopped doing what they were doing and came out to watch Zach. For them, it was like their favorite celebrity walking on the street.
Meanwhile, Aurora was surprised as to what was going on. She had no idea that the realm now belonged to Zach, as his religion was spreading like wildfire.
The benefits and rewards were too much for the players and NPCs, and they couldn’t resist the temptation. And now that the NPCs had become players, the real players were helping them out in leveling up and the rest of the things.
That was what Zach had demanded from them after he had marked them with his shadow sigil.
“What’s all this?” Aurora finally broke her silence and asked, “Why are they looking at us like this?”
“I will fill you up later.”
After a few minutes, they finally reached the church. Cerberus once again placed his head on the ground and his paw in a position of stairs so they could easily get off.
Zach carried Aurora, but after he got off Cerberus, Aurora nudged him and said, “Put me down.”
“Hmm?”
“I want to walk on my own. Actually, I want to surprise them,” she grinned slightly. “You haven’t told them anything, right?”
“No.”
“Nice. You should go first and act normal. And then I will surprise them!”
“That’s actually a nice idea. But can you walk on your own?” Zach asked with a concerned look on his face.
Aurora grinned and said, “Why don’t you put me down and check for yourself?”
SIGH!
“Your cheekiness is still the same.”
Zach slowly let go of Aurora, but he didn’t completely let go of her until her feet touched the ground.
“…”
Zach watched as Aurora managed to stand still without wobbling like a jelly.
“Wow.”
“Ehehe.” Aurora giggled. “I have been secretly practicing. Milo also helped me with it. I actually wanted to surprise you, but you surprised me by bringing me out.”
“I see…”
“I can even walk freely and even run slowly. It’s just like having a fever and feeling weak, except I don’t have a fever, nor do I feel weak,” she added.
“Alright then. I will go and act normal.” He turned to Cerberus and said, “Go back to my shadows. No, wait…”
He glanced around and moved his face close to Cerberus’ ears to ask, “Any updates from Urluk?”
[Not yet.]
Cerberus returned to Zach’s shadow after whispering something in Zach’s ears.
“Milo, take care of Aurora, okay?”
“Yes.”
Zach entered the church like always and acted normally. He was excited to see how the girls would react. However, he then remembered that they had left for the dungeon and the tower in the morning.
‘Too many things happened today, so it slipped my mind.’
He messaged them and asked them to return as soon as possible. He then rushed outside and brought Aurora to his room so they could surprise the girls from there.
