Chapter 436 435- A Stop Before the Destination

Zach teased Asmodeus until she asked him to dry her clothes too. Once everything was settled, he carried Asmodeus and soared into the sky.

Zach was focused on the path and glancing around for the enemies, while Asmodeus was focused on Zach.

"Would you stop staring at me like that? You are creeping me out."

"I have nothing else to do."

"Then stare at something else."

"You kissed me, right?" She suddenly asked.

"Huh?"

"When I was unconscious, you kissed me, right? Because you were kissing me when I regained consciousness."

"That's called mouth-to-mouth CPR. I doubt that term exists in hell, so I don't blame you for not knowing that."

"But our lips were touching, so that's a kiss, right?"

"No, a kiss feels different."

"..."

A brief silence later, she asked, "But you saw me naked. You saw my chest."

"What are you trying to prove by that statement? I did it to save your life."

"I am simply bored and trying to pass the time."

SIGH!

"You are annoying at times… no, when have you not been annoying? You are always annoying," he sighed and increased his flying speed.

"Do you hate me?" Asmodeus bit her lips and asked in a low voice.

"I didn't say that."

"But I am nothing but a burden to you. Ever since we started traveling together, I have been dragging you down. I wouldn't be surprised if you hate me deep down," she said with a gloomy face.

"The only time you feel like a burden is when I am carrying you like this. Not because you are heavy, but because I can't use my hands to fly faster."

"You are just saying that so I don't feel bad."

"Do you think I would care about someone's feelings? I am always honest and blunt about everything. If you were truly a burden to me, then, believe me, I would have left you behind— regardless if you were my sister or not."

"But I have been a damsel in distress all this time. All you have been doing is saving me from the start. You saved me from the emperor of the mist, then with the insect lord, and now from the water spirit," she stated.

"You were against the odds with the emperor of shit. You had emotionally destroyed him, which helped me provoke him easily. You did everything. All I did was press the switch.

It's like the world's strongest person doesn't know how to swim, and he gets thrown into the sea and dies. That doesn't mean he wasn't the strongest. The same case is with you. No one could have fought against a mist.

As for the insect lord— again, I couldn't have defeated him without you. He revealed himself in front of me to kill you, and I was able to defeat him because of you.

And… I don't know what to say about the water spirit. Even the strongest can't win against the spirits. They are nature itself. You would need an equal, if not more, power to defeat a spirit.

So I am confused why you got the idea that you are being a burden. As I said, it would be great if you could fly so I wouldn't have to carry you, but it's not a big deal."

Whatever Zach said was true, and he never thought of Asmodeus as a burden. In fact, he was thrilled to be on an adventure with a sister he never knew existed.

After hearing Zach's words and learning what he thought of her, Asmodeus' face flushed a little as she rested herself on Zach.

"Hey, you just became heavier all of a sudden!"

"I gave my everything to you, so take care of me and my body, okay?"

"..." Zach shook his head in disbelief and muttered, "You really should work on your phrasing."

'I need a third girl to join us, or I won't be able to resist the temptation. Had we taken the normal route by passing the towns and cities, we would have met many new people and enjoyed our journey. However, that would have taken a long, long time. We sacrificed food and proper rest in exchange for time. Moreover, it's too late to regret now.'

Asmodeus closed her eyes and fell asleep while Zach continued flying. In her sleep, Asmodeus said some strange things that Zach wished he hadn't heard. When she woke up, it was already night.

She was surprised at first but regained her senses and looked at Zach's face.

"Have… have you been flying this whole time?"

Zach nodded without saying anything.

"Don't your hands hurt?! Let's make a stop and rest for the night somewhere!"

"It's fine. I can continue for a few more hours."

"I am sure you can, but you need to rest. We are getting closer to the inner hell, and I am sure you can sense it, too, since your senses are more evolved and sharper than mine."

"Yes, we will reach there by morning."

"And that's why you should rest. What will you do after reaching the inner hell if you are exhausted from the journey? You wouldn't be able to give your best, and we can't afford to lose there. Please, take a rest. Otherwise, I would feel bad."

"You are right. We won't get a chance to catch a breath once we reach the inner hell. We need to get enough rest. Let's look for a place where we can rest without worrying about being attacked."

"When did you last sleep?"

"I… oh, I haven't slept ever since I came to hell."

"What?!" Asmodeus exclaimed in shock.

"Don't worry, we did take a rest together."

"Resting and sleeping are totally different. Land this instant and get a nice sleep! I will guard your body with my body!"

"Work on your phasing, dammit!" Zach groaned. "

After flying for a few minutes, Zach landed near a big mountain and found a cave where they could rest.
