Unrivaled Demon's Odyssey

Chapter 89 - Wealthy Yet Homeless



Nero and the two pervy angels were on their way to the new capital on the carriage. The sun was about to set, and it was an early night, so they decided to camp the night in the forest.

"According to the map, the new capital should be about ten hours\' travel from here. So if we wake up early in the morning, we might make it there before noon," Sophia asserted.

"Then we should hunt some animals, then eat and sleep so we can wake up early," Nero said as he tied the horses to the nearest tree.

Emilia jumped out from the back of the carriage with haylage and grass in her hands to feed the horses.

"These horses have it easy. They don\'t need to worry about food or anything," Emilia commented.

"You want to become my horse? Although, I do ride you every night," Nero teased.

Emilia glanced at Sophia and smiled. 

Confused and freaked out, Sophia hid behind Nero. "She is creeping me out."

"How rude! I was trying to be nice to you!" Emilia hissed.

Nero waved his hand in the air and slashed some branches of the tree. He further cut them down into small pieces so that it would take less space.

After gathering the pieces and making a stack, he pointed his finger at them, and his finger lit a fire as though it was lighter.

After igniting the bonfire, Nero brought his finger near his mouth and blew it. He then glanced around, and his gaze stopped on a lifeless tree. He turned it into a trunk, and placed it beside the bonfire, then laid down.

"I have done my share," Nero said in a haughty tone.

"Now go hunt some animals," he added.

Nero was just lazy, but on top of all, he was terrible at hunting since he needed precise control over his powers. Whenever he tried to attack some animal, he either ended up burning them into ashes or made their meat uneatable.

Sophia sighed and shook her head after looking at Nero\'s lazy behavior. She activated her \'Angel\'s sight\' and glanced around carefully.

God\'s eyes and Angel\'s sight were somewhat similar but different at the same time. God\'s eyes allowed Nero to look through anything— even into one\'s soul. While `Angel\'s sight` had limited functions that were very useful for scouting.

"I don\'t see any animals here," Sophia stated as she deactivated her Angel\'s sight.

"For real?"

Sophia nodded.

Nero pondered for a while and looked at Emilia, then said, "Let\'s eat one horse. We won\'t need them anyway since we are leaving this continent tomorrow."

"No!" Emilia shouted and glared at Nero. "No one is hurting horses."

Nero grinned and laughed out loud after seeing Emilia\'s reaction. 

"Ten out of ten for your reaction," he marked.

"What should we do now? I can manage a night without eating, but I don\'t think Emilia can," Sophia remarked.

Nero looked up at the trees and said, "I smell something sweet. Look for the fruits. I am sure you will find many around here."

Emilia walked to a tree and looked up, "I see some purple fruits."

"Bring \'em here."

Emilia furrowed her brows and stared at Nero for a while, "They are so up high."

"Good luck."

Nero was feeling tired— not weak— since he hadn\'t slept in days, but furthermore, he just wanted to see Emilia do some work.

Emilia puckered her lips and said, "You owe me 100 kisses for this."

After looking at the fruits for a while, Emilia took a deep breath and started climbing a tree. She was climbing with such speed that it reminded Nero of monkeys.

Emilia reached the top of the tree and started dropping the fruits. They were getting squished by the fall, so Sophia began catching them.

Once Emilia was done dropping all the fruits from that tree, she glanced around and said, "There are more trees. I will get all of them."

Emilia jumped from one tree to another and started dropping the fruits.

Meanwhile, Sophia brought the fruits to Nero and showed him. "They look edible."

"What are these fruits?" Nero inspected carefully.

\'This reminds me of that old comic about pirates that had 1169 chapters where the main character ate a fruit similar to this,\' Nero recalled.

"This looks like another species of the red fruit we used to eat," Sophia asserted.

"Umm…" Nero pondered for a while to remember what fruit Sophia was talking about since they had eaten many fruits before and after they were sealed.

"The one we used to squish and drink its juice instead of eating it." Sophia squeezed the fruit between her palms and drank the juice.

After drinking, Sophia waited for a moment to savor the taste and nodded, "Yeah. They taste similar, but this one is tastier."

Without moving an inch, Nero opened his mouth and asked Sophia to feed him.

Sophia squinted her eyes and wondered, "I have never seen you acting this lazy. What\'s wrong?"

"I don\'t know. I just feel like a king," Nero smirked.

"And we are you maids?" Sophia questioned.

"The maids who are most useful at night and help their master to satisfy his lust," Nero smirked wider.

Sophia laughed out loud after hearing that and said, "Emilia would be happy if she heard that."

Nero glanced at Emilia and saw her few trees away from him. \'She already made three trees fruitless.\'

"Open wide." Sophia walked to Nero and moved her hand towards his mouth.

Nero opened his mouth, and Sophia squeezed the fruit as Nero drank the juice.

"Would be ironic and hilarious if I turn into a rubber man and yell \'gomu gomu\' in every fight," Nero scoffed.

Sophia sighed as she shook her head and squeezed another fruit to feed Nero.

"We have spent such a long time together, but I still don\'t get your jokes."

Nero opened his mouth and signaled to Sophia, "One more."
