Chapter 199: A New Goal

"Where did he go?!" Sophia panicked.

She searched all over the area but couldn't find any trace of Nero.

She jumped in the air and flapped her wings to fly above the clouds. Her angel form was shining under the rising sun.

After flying higher than the clouds, she saw a familiar figure standing in the sky.

SIGH!

She sighed in relief and called out: "There you are!"

Nero turned around with his left eyes still closed and bleeding, and smiled gently at Sophia.

"Cha…os…" A nostalgic scene flashed before Sophia's eyes, but she couldn't remember that ever happening.

She saw Nero dancing with someone under the moon and countless stars between space and void.

"Sophi? What's wrong?"

Sophia shook her head and said, "Nothing."

"So why are you crying?"

"Huh?"

Sophia moved her hand to her face to find she was crying.

She wiped her tears and rushed to Nero.

"I thought you left us behind," Sophia asserted.

"Why would I leave my girls behind. I can't live without you all." After a brief pause, he added, "And honestly. I am so horny because I haven't done it with you or Emilia in a week because of Asteria's current condition."

Nero wiped Sophia's unshed tears and kissed her on the cheek.

"What happened to your left eye?" Sophia asked with a concerned look on her face.

"It's a long story," he sighed. "How is Arnold?"

"He is out of danger, but he has yet to regain his consciousness," Sophia answered.

PHEW!

"That's good." Nero sighed in relief. "Because if he had died, then even my resurrection skill wouldn't work on him."

Nero was able to use the resurrection skill on Pavel because he was a living entity. But he couldn't do the same with Around.

Arnold was indeed alive, but his body had died eons ago. So if Nero had used the resurrection, it would have just healed the body and wouldn't have brought Arnold's soul back.

"Even after eons, you still care about your friends," Sophia commented with a grin.

"I doubt that," Nero muttered in disbelief.

Sophia raised her brows and asked, "What's wrong? You seem to be out of the mood. Are you exhausted? Shall we go down and rest?"

Nero turned to Sophia and carried her in his arms. Then, he threw her.

"Wha—!"

However, when Sophia was about a few feet above from hitting the ground, Nero caught her and landed on the hill near the mountain where the carriages were parked.

"How was the ride?" Nero asked with a grin on his face.

"No comments," Sophia replied.

Nero placed her on the ground and sat beside her.

"Can you heal my eye?"

"Sure, but it will hurt a little, or maybe more than a little."

"Taking revenge, I see."

Sophia placed her hand on Nero's left eyes and chanted a healing spell.

Usually, an angel shouldn't be able to heal a demon, but Sophia wasn't using her divine power to heal Nero.

After a few minutes, Sophia removed her hand from Nero's left eyes and asked, "Try to open your left eye."

"It hasn't been healed yet," Nero stated.

"But I used the maximum affinity spell. It should have healed…"

"Don't worry. I kind of expected this to happen."

"Then what are you going to do now?!" Sophia exclaimed with an anxious look on her face.

"It will heal over time. I am sure of it; and even if it doesn't, I can pluck it and create another eye."

Nero scoffed and uttered, "That would be the simplest solution, not going to lie."

Sophia stared at Nero with a puzzled and concerned look on her face.

"What's wrong? You don't like this 'One-eyed Demon'?"

SIGH!

Sophia sighed and muttered, "Don't give yourself yet another cool nickname."

Nero placed his head on Sophia's lap and sniffed her sacred place.

"It smells so sweet and pure," he commented.

"Because it is pure."

Nero licked his lips and uttered with a mischievous smile on his face: "I can't wait to defile it one day."

Sophia pulled Nero's cheeks and uttered, "If you want to defile it, then find me a new core first."

"I met a vampire just now."

"Hah?! Didn't they go extinct soon after your mother… I mean, soon after the war between all the races?"

"Yeah. But it's not surprising that some managed to escape. But that vampire was a weak one. It died as long as sunlight touched him."

"All the vampires are like that," Sophia argued. "It's you who is different."

"Mama didn't die when she was hanged naked under the sun," he uttered in a solemn voice.

"...."

After a brief moment, Nero grunted and asserted: "Alright, I have decided."

"Decided what?" Sophia asked curiously.

"I am going to find a way to revive my father and mother."

"But… they died eons ago."

"Still, I will find a way and revive them. That's one of my new goals."

"What about your other goals then?"

"My to-do list is very long. And the top priority is to find my cores and weapons. Then get as much information as I can about this world."

"What about us? No goals for us?"

"There are many goals for you girls too." Nero nodded. "One of them is to ravage you in your angel form one day."

"Oh?" Sophia sneered.

"And one is to find everything about Emilia; regarding who she is and what she was," Nero added.

Sophia stopped smiling but didn't say anything.

Nero scoffed and added, "I bet she was a horny pervert Before too."

Nero was grinning, but he stopped and sighed with a serious look on his face.

"What's wrong?"

"Something is wrong with me."

"Isn't it always like that?" Sophia sneered.

"I am being serious." Nero sat up from Sophia's lap and continued, "Something inside me wanted to let Pavel and Arnold die, and get Rosemary and Rhea for myself."
