52- exile ; tired

On the darkest path to the 19th floor, the sound of blood dribbling in the ground could be heard.

"Please… Just Kill me already…" Begged Dix, that was tied on a tree trunk, with his arms and legs torn off.

"HOW MANY TIMES DID MY FRIENDS BEGGED YOU TO STOP?!" Gros Shouted stabbing Dix in the stomach with his claws.

"Aghhhh! *Cough*" Dix screamed at the top of his lungs before the blood came to his throat making him cough.

"But…" Gros sighed retracting his hand from Dix's stomach, making it bleed.

"I'm not like you" Slashing at Dix's Neck in a quick motion, decapitating him.

Gros then felt a great weight lift from his shoulders.

He looked at the ceiling of the cave and talked to himself.

"I've done it my friends…" he muttered.

"Gros are you-" Ranye suddenly came from around the corner and was speechless.

"Ranye" Gros said not wanting his friend to see his actual state, his claws and skin were stained with blood, he looked no different than a monster.

"Is this what they would have wanted to happen?" Gros said looking at his bloody hands, he knew how soft and gentle some of his friends were.

"Shh, you did the right thing" Ranye shushed him, lowering herself and hugging him from behind.

"Let's go home, alright?" she said spitting corrosive venom at Dix's corpse melting it to nothing in a couple of seconds.

Gros took a deep breath and retracted his claws.

"thanks" he said as Ranye let go of him and both walked back to the Xenos village.

Meanwhile, in The Surface.

Daedalus Street, where everything was ruins of half-built houses, that were then used as foundations by the poor people of Orario.

The architecture itself was all over the place as if some madman had designed the place, but the people living here didn't care about that, they had enough thinking what to do to eat the next day.

As the sun was setting in the distance, its orange glow illuminated the platform atop one of the many towers without use.

On top of the platform, there were 2 people.

One was sitting at the edge of the platform looking down at the battle that the Loki Familia was having with the members from the Ikelos Familia.

And the man watching was none other than Ikelos himself.

"Hahaha! Look at them trying to escape their doom, watching it from here, they look just like ants, don't you think?" Ikelos said to the person beside him.

"Even ants can take down a scorpion, if there are enough of them" Hermes said looking down at the 'Battle' that was more like a massacre.

"… what are you doing with that kid? He seems… strange" Ikelos asked getting up and feeling how his blessing disappeared, meaning that his whole Familia was killed.

"that's why I'm watching him" Hermes answered.

"Wouldn't that make you just like me?"

"We are not the same" Hermes said with a hint of disgust in his voice.

"… what will happen now? Will you send me back to heaven?"

"No, I didn't find anything to do with Evilus so you'll be exiled at most"

"hehe… maybe I can find something entertaining outside" Ikelos laughed walking back inside the tower while Hermes watched silently.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Later that night as Ikelos was being exiled.

The team reached the mansion, tired as hell, Hestia was at the door waiting for someone to tell her what happened, but everyone ignored her and went to their bedrooms.

Calvin had a sleeping Wiene on his back, while Learner seemed fine, like always.

'*Sigh* I wish I could just not sleep, wait, that already happened, it wasn't a great experience' Calvin thought remembering his time as a half-zombie and the consequences of it.

He reached his bedroom, gently putting Wiene on the bed, she usually slept with Bell and Hestia but he was so damm tired he didn't mind at all.

He then dropped on the bed and saw how Learner dropped on top of him cuddling into his chest.

He put his arm around her hips and drifted off to sleep.

>>>>>>>>>>>>

The next day, Calvin woke up feeling refreshed after a good night of sleep.

Looking to his left, he saw Wiene still asleep while drooling on his arm, seeing this his face couldn't but form an amused smile on his face.

Looking to the other side he saw Learner staring at him intensely, startling him a little.

'Did she stare at me for the whole night?'

"Good morning" she greeted staying in place.

"Morning" he greeted back.

"Did you sleep well?"

"Yeah, although, I would have slept better if I had some of this before going to bed" he said grabbing her ass with his free hand a groping it a little, it was big enough to spill from the cracks of his fingers then is was incredibly soft, almost inhuman in a way

But that brought a question, if she was this soft, did that mean that he also was? At least before going through hell and back with Karen's extreme training.

Squirming under his touch, Learner tried to glare at him, but it only came off as a slight frown, making him smile in amusement and continue to grope her.

"Please s-stop, Wiene is right beside us" She managed to say, battling her instincts to just give in to the pleasure he brought her.

And as she said he stopped, he just wanted to see if she managed to improve on her instinct management, but if she failed, he also wouldn't have done anything, don't get him wrong, he wasn't rejecting a beauty, but as she said, Wiene was beside them and he might be shameless or a 'pervert' but there was a limit to that as well, and having sex in front of a little girl, definitely crossed that limit.

And on top of all that, he liked the girl, she reminded him of his little maid-ninja-assassins, but he also speculated that they might be dead by now.

'Those fucking insects' clenching his hand in anger, he could only hope that a strand of their hair was left, he could bring everyone back with just a strand of hair or even a piece of their meat.

'Hell, even if there's nothing left of them, I'll turn back time itself, no matter how long it takes!'

And thinking about that new objective he got up from the bed carefully removing the arm that Wiene had taken hostage, making her wake up and rub her eyes.

"*Yawn*… morning Big brother" she yawned in bed.

'If only you were stronger, you could be a good ally…' He thought with one hand on his chin and the other on his hip.

Looking around the room his eyes landed on his closet.

'Hmm, maybe I could…' opening the closet and unlocking the safe inside he took out the Vouivre magic stone and returned to the bed.

"Wiene, do you want to be stronger?" Calvin asked the still half-asleep girl.

"Eh? Yes! Please big brother can you make Wiene stronger?" The little girl asked jumping in the bed with stars in her eyes.

"Yes, but you must promise something first"

"Yes! Anything!"

"You'll do everything I tell you to do without objections, okay?"

"Okay!" She cheerfully accepted.

"Alright, then eat this" He ordered showing her the red magic stone.

Taking the stone, Wiene hesitated before opening her mouth and swallowing the fist-sized stone making her throat bulge slightly and her face show a hint of pain at the size of the object.

Calvin and Learner were watching in amazement as Wiene swallowed the entire thing until it finally went down her throat making her gasp in relief.

Having witnessed that, Calvin looked at Learner with a rather perverted idea, but his thoughts were interrupted when Wiene's body started to shine.

(I'm gonna stop with the "Onii-chan" and all that stuff, it just makes me cringe every time I read it, so, we'll stick with their respective translations.)
