Chapter 65 - You Want It Too?

Chapter 65: 65 - You Want It Too?

What Iris and King were doing right now created a rather strange atmosphere. It was almost like a wife catching her husband cheating with another woman, pinching his ear and yelling at him while questioning him.

At least, their actions combined with the surroundings really did give off that feeling.

Even King felt like something was strange, but for the moment, he couldn’t figure out what it was.

All he knew was that his ears felt like they were about to go deaf from Iris’s megaphone-like mouth yelling right into them.

"It’s not my fault, is it? I only went to the Arcane Dominion world for a few hours. How was I supposed to know the teleportation time would last for two whole months?"

Since it wasn’t King’s fault, he answered with quite a lot of confidence. Even if it really was his fault, his attitude wouldn’t have changed much anyway.

Seeing that King showed no sign of regret or remorse, Iris pinched his ear even harder. Even the physique of a rank IV cultivator turned red from her pinch.

"So what? You went that far and didn’t even know to give us a heads-up? You made us waste so much time and effort.

There were even times when things got so out of hand that we almost started World War III because we invaded the territories of multiple countries just to secretly search for you."

King’s existence was still being concealed by the Cultivation Academy under a false identity. When searching for him, they couldn’t exactly announce that they were looking for the ’future of humanity’, so they had to do everything secretly.

But how could they keep it secret when they had to infiltrate the territories of every country in the world? Even if it didn’t get exposed here, it would get exposed somewhere else.

Because of this, Adrian had to rack his brains negotiating with the governments to get them to worry less about the Academy.

The Academy was an independent organization that didn’t belong to any country, yet it was far too powerful.

Not even counting its large number of students and powerful teaching staff, the fourteen strongest members alone were far more dangerous than nuclear weapons.

What country wouldn’t be worried about nuclear bombs that could explode many times, knew how to move, and were wandering around their territory?

"Hmph, what gives you the right to blame me? Just because I wasted everyone’s time? Let a ’fictional’ world’s time pass however much it wants. As a reader, I don’t care about it at all!"

"Besides, it’s been two months, so did you forget already? What was the reason I suddenly went to another world? You’re the one mainly responsible for this, not me."

Iris’s words made King extremely annoyed. Ignoring the difference in strength, King kept poking his index finger at her cheek.

Two months had passed for Iris, but for King, only a few hours had passed. He still remembered very clearly why he had to ’temporarily retreat’ to the Arcane Dominion world.

The reason for this whole incident was Iris. And yet she dared to scold him? Something this ridiculous, King would never accept it.

While being extremely aggressive, Iris suddenly froze. If King hadn’t said it, she would have almost forgotten about what happened two months ago...

But so what if this was her fault? There was no way she was going to admit she was wrong over something this stupid.

"Hmph, why? Because I’m the strongest. I’m stronger than you, so I’m the truth. Got it?"

Iris pressed her sword against King’s neck. She had discovered that King had become much stronger, so her movements were also much more aggressive. Of course, she was only trying to scare him and had no intention of actually separating his head from his neck.

"Hmph, if you’ve got the guts, cut me."

Seeing that she was about to slash him, King didn’t dodge. Instead, he stretched his neck forward to make it even easier for her to cut him. It would be strange if these stupid threats worked on him. Even if she really intended to slash him, he wouldn’t be afraid.

"Pretty tough, huh? Then I’ll pick somewhere else."

Iris’s hand let go of his ear and immediately grabbed another wet spot. With movements this skilled, even catching an eel would have been extremely easy.

"Stop!"

Seeing that he was about to be castrated, King panicked out of habit. After all, not long ago, he was still just an ordinary young man. No ordinary young man would want to be castrated.

Even if King’s personality was unusual, some habitual reactions couldn’t be completely eliminated in such a short time.

"Hmph, scared now? Then go take a shower."

Right after scaring him, Iris pulled her hand back. Flames burst into life in the palm of her hand, burning away the stuff stuck to it. Everything was burned into ashes and scattered into the air, leaving her hand clean as before.

King’s mind was thinking a little differently from usual right now. Because he had only done one thing for the past two days, that was what he immediately thought of.

"Why take a shower? Don’t tell me you want to..."

"I want to chop you to death! Take a shower and clean everything up for me! Looking at you right now makes me feel extremely disgusted."

The veins on Iris’s forehead bulged. Her expression was as ugly as if she’d been forced to eat shit. She shouted and kicked King right in the butt, sending him flying several meters away.

"Tsk, fine, I’ll clean it up."

King clicked his tongue but didn’t refuse. This place would be his home in the future anyway, so it was only natural for him to clean it himself.

Only after she could no longer see King’s back did Iris’s beautiful face turn bright red from embarrassment.

"Damn it, how dare you guys do that right in front of me?"

She looked just like a shy young girl seeing something adult for the first time.

No matter what her personality was like, suddenly seeing such a hot scene in the middle of her living room like this was really...

She had seen King’s entire body from head to toe. Not only had she seen it, but she had also touched it. She still hadn’t forgotten the feeling in her palm just now.

"Tsk, if I’d known it would be this troublesome, I would’ve just castrated him from the start."

Iris angrily swung her sword and slashed through the air. The sound of wind being torn apart made King shudder even though he could no longer see her.

The redness on her face quickly disappeared as she shook her head. Iris had a very tough personality. Something this trivial couldn’t distract her for long.
