Chapter 337 - Maiden In Love (2/2)
Mercury showed a smile and brushed some of her pink hair aside from her face before he gave her a kiss, this time Party didn't freeze up entirely and kissed him back…
”Where is this even…?”
”You're only wondering that now?”
”Yeah I was busy with some other stuff before, more important stuff”
”...Right”
Party pulled up the covers to cover her face a bit before she began speaking
”This is the divine realm, I am a permanent resident here being an archangel and all, but you are here in spirit body only, I or my current avatar is streaming your spirit body here”
”I see… And my spirit body is? My soul?”
”Yeah basically”
”That makes some amount of sense I guess… Now I have a question that you're not going to like, why did you tell me to keep my distance from mortals?”
Party nodded before she thought for a few moments to properly formulate herself
”I… Once had a sister, I adopted her and raised her, she was more of a daughter to me… She reached the end of her natural lifespan and I watched her breathe her last in my arms… In the end, we are different than mortals, I just want you to remember that”
Mercury stroked her hair between his fingers as he nodded
”I'll remember that… And I'll have to apologize”
”For what?”
”Well… I'll have to treat the other two with even more love than before, now that I know that our time together is limited… Granted I intend to treat you equally, so I guess I'll treat you with even more love too”
Party blushed slightly before she buried her head under the covers and muttered
”I'll look forward to it...”
After spending a few days with Party Mercury returned his spirit body to Alfan and found himself receiving a lap pillow from the avatar that smiled sweetly at him and soon Party spoke
[It's been about 12 hours since you left your vessel]
”...I guess time flows differently over there?”
[Yep… It sure does~}
Mercury got up and stretched before he offered his hand to Party and asked
”Shall we?”
[Sure~]
Then the two of them started heading back towards the camp where Party once again received the same treatment, then after finding Julia and Marie Party explained that she now also was in a relationship with Mercury thereafter Julia and Marie both congratulated her and dragged the avatar off to chat some more, Mercury was once again left out and so he spent the time resting in their tent soon he dozed off to sleep…
Mercury soon found himself in a white space, he looked around and soon discovered an avatar floating in the space looking at him with a cold gaze, then it spoke
[Hello Mercury, we meet again…]
”Light?”
[Yes, I heard from Party that you and she are an item now?]
Mercury nodded and spoke without hesitation
”Yes, that we are”
[I see… In that case, I'll have to keep an extra eye on her… We'll be seeing each other a lot more from now on]
Mercury showed a warm smile and spoke
”I'll look forwards to that”
[You… You really are something, Mercury]
Light showed a small smile before the avatar snapped its fingers and Mercury woke up with a set and looked around, it seemed like it was around morning, Mercury looked to his side and saw that Julia and Marie were laying next to him, still asleep, he showed a smile and laid back down before he pulled them close and went back to sleep, soon he drifted off to sleep with them....
