Chapter 168 To kill a living god 2 (1/2)
Mars sat at the dinner table along with the old demon, Jacob and Alex and ate, while he was eating he spoke manly with the old demon and Jacob mostly ignoring Alex that still looked at him with badly disguised disdain, when he was done eating he stood up from his chair and only after he promised the old demon he would come back again tomorrow and he showed a portal to the old demon was he allowed to leave. Mars didn't brother with getting Victoria as he knew she was having fun with Velvet so he opened a portal to Green river and stepped though alone...
The next morning Mars returned to the wasteland after having told the girls at home that he would be gone for a few days, then he spent most of the day training Jacob in the art of Kel before he decided it was time to pay Velvet a visit and left the courtyard behind along with the old demon that had business at the place, as they walked along the way Mars and the old demon chatted about what Mars had been doing since he left the wasteland, Mars also asked into what had been happening in the capital of demons since he left but all he got for a response was 'it's like it always is' so he quickly dropped the topic, soon they arrived at the place and both of them were allowed in Mars remembered the path to Velvet's chambers so he said goodbye to the old demon that had business in another part of the place and made his way towards Velvet's chambers were he soon arrived and knocked on the door
”who is it?”
”it's me”
”oh Mars...”
Velvet got quiet and then Mars' ears picked up hurried movement inside the room for sometime until she spoke again
”come in”
”thanks”
Mars opened the door and walked into Velvet's chambers, the first thing he saw was Velvet that sat at a small table and was drinking tea, she was wearing her blindfold as usual, Mars looked around the room and gave a nod before he spoke with a teasing smile on his face
”that was the fastest panic cleaning I have heard in sometime, what did you hide your pron?”
the graceful exterior that velvet had put on crumbled as she puffed her cheeks and stammered
”a-a-a-as if a princess would have such vulgar stuff!”
Mars' smile widened slightly as he walked over and sat down in front of Velvet
”so you know what pron is.... you dirty brat”
”....anymore and I'll get angry”
Mars wiped the teasing smile off his face and showed a gentle smile before he asked
”how have you been Velvet?”
”humph”
Velvet puffed her cheeks and turned her head to the side, Mars gave a sigh
”I'm sorry I went to far”
”as long as you know you were wrong”
Mars stood up from his chair and made a 90 degree bow
”I apologize for my rudeness princess Velvet”
”...well, apology accepted please sit”
Mars sat down again and looked over at Velvet, as usual he could feel a gaze on him even though she was blindfolded, Mars studied her movements for a moment before he muttered
”you really are not blind are you?”
”of course I'm not blind”

Mars was a little surprised by Velvet's answer
”then why do you wear a blindfold?”
”because I have to”
”...I see?”
Mars tilted his head still a little confused but velvet followed up
”my eyes are a little special”
”...I see, I won't pry anymore then”
”very good Mars”
the two of them spent some time chatting during which Mars noticed Victoria, she was sleeping on Velvet's bed with her 4 limbs sticking into the air, Velvet followed Mars' gaze and also noticed Victoria's sleeping poster and the two of them sheared a laugh before velvet suddenly turned serious and asked Mars
”so Mars what brings you to the wasteland this time?”
Mars sipped his tea before he answered Velvet's question
”the wasteland itself”
”the wasteland?”
