Reborn as an Evolving Space Monster: Harem Of Otherworldly Beauties Chapter 288 Mole In A Mansion

"What do you an be more like that?!"

"Well… Would you sit on my lap?"

"Huh? Why would I do that? Of course not."

"See! That's the problem."

"Why is that a problem? You always said you liked being in my lap."

"That's not the point!"

"Then what is the point? I an… You like feminine won, right? You want , as your girlfriend, to be strong and courageous and-"

"Yes! Yes! Yes! But that's not the point! You also have to be… You know… Sensible."

"The fuck does that even an?"

"Ugh! Would you sit on my lap if I told you to?"

"No…?"

"That's the problem!"

"Do… Do you want to sit in your lap?"

"Ugh! You're not hearing ! Why do you always refuse to understand ?"

"Refuse to do what?! I'm trying to understand!"

"Just… Nevermind." The boyfriend sighed. "I wish I was gay sotis."

"...?"

The chaos ruling the lovers' square continued long after Liz and Cero left the area.

***

"Holy shit…" Cero muttered.

"I know, right?" Liz nodded. "Impressive, huh?"

"Impressive doesn't even begin to… Just how big is-"

"It's practically the whole neighbourhood."

"Wow." In trying to decide which flake to go bother, Liz and Cero decided to make a ga out of it. "I can't even begin to guess who lives here. Soone like Jay? He did know a lot about expensive things… But you wouldn't take to see him. We didn't even agree on him eting up with us."

Liz nodded silently as Cero talked.

Unfortunately, the ga was interrupted as security approached them.

Standing in front of the gates like that, they were bound to be suspicious.

"What's your business here?"

Liz pressed her lips together. She turned towards Cero.

He lowered his gaze, dejected.

Ga Over, he had lost.

"We're friends of Rea's." Liz answered as she took off her sunglasses and face mask.

'Bound to be suspicious… Because we look suspicious.'

"Oh!" The security guard imdiately exclaid as he moved to open the large and towering gates. "Liz, right? It's an honour to et you."

"Um, thanks."

"And you must be… Cero, correct?"

"Correct." He nodded.

"Thank you very much for helping our beloved Rea." The security guard shook Cero's hand energetically while bowing repeatedly.

"Y… You're welco." Cero answered with an eyebrow raised. 'Don't you an helping your people? Didn't we save you from forced servitude?'

"Please, co in." The guard gestured to the white stairs leading to the mansion's entrance.

The gate was closed behind them, and the guard didn't follow them.

Liz and Cero gulped, walking up the staircase alone.

"A male guard. That's…"

"No sexism, Cero." Liz whispered. "In the first place, you're one to talk!"

"I'm just saying that I didn't expect it."

"Well, he's mostly there to greet guests. The real security is elsewhere, hidden."

"Look who's being sexist now. The real security, huh?"

"..."

Before they could climb the staircase fully, the mansion's large white doors were opened wide.

"Welco! Welco to our house, Liz, Cero!"

"S-Sir… I can greet the guests for y-"

"Nonsense! They aren't guests, but my dear daughter's friends! Co in! It's a pleasure to have you! I urged Rea to have you co here sooner, but… Well."

For a male Worka, he was pretty tall. Which was surprising, considering Rea's height.

'Or lack thereof.'

From the quality and flamboyance of the suit adorned with countless dals and pins that Cero couldn't only assu to be military dals and pins,

"My na is Paris, Rea's father."

"It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance." Both Liz and Cero answered at once.

"Ha! You really are tall. Much taller than I expected. How's the weather up there?"

'Gender norms or not… Rich or poor… Dad jokes remain dad jokes, huh?'

Since both Liz and Cero were standing side by side, basically stuck to one another, it was fairly easy for Liz to give him a push with her elbow without being noticed. He had remained silent for a bit too long, and any longer would be considered rude.

"Incredibly pleasant." Cero chuckled. "Especially now that I'm here." He gazed at the interior and decor. "Wow… Your ho is beautifully furnished."

"Ha! Those muscles scared for a mont, but you have impeccable taste, dear. Thank you, I furnished it myself." He gestured towards the maid at his side. "Would you like sothing to drink? I'm afraid my wife has so business to attend to, and I must accompany her. Please, make yourself at ho. Rea should wake up in a bit-"

"Wake up in a bit? Ha!" A voice resonated from way behind Paris, from the depths of the mansion. The piercing sound of heels hitting the ground filled the silence montarily as she went down the stairs. "That child refuses to grow up. She's holed up in her room, stuck to her screens again."

'Oh… I see where Rea gets her height from, and her temperant.'

"I-I present to you my wife, R-"

"Geh!" An exclamation interrupted the husband's words. "How are you so tall? A guy being that tall is so-"

"Dear, please don't be insensitive."

"Fine." The wife sighed. "The maids will see to you. Please try to pull that mole out of her burrow. Anyway, we're already late." She walked right past Liz and Cero.

"Right." Paris nodded and followed his wife, stopping just before passing Liz and Cero. "Please, excuse her. These are stressful tis for our company, and we've already had to delay our eting to welco you. I'm sorry for the rather cold and unceremonious welco that-"

"Paris, we're late."

"Y-Yes, dear!"

Cero and Liz were left with the maid.

"How did they know we were coming?" He whispered.

"The rich have their ways. The top 1%... Surveillance caras and all."

"Seriously? You're fucking with ."

"No, it's serious. Rea's family has deep ties with the governnt, apparently."

"That makes a bit uneasy…" Cero frowned. "You're fucking with , aren't you?"

"Yeah, I am." Liz admitted with a smile. "I called before coming. Would be rude to show up uninvited and without announcing oneself."

"You really think about everything, huh?"

"Weeeell…" Liz shrugged, enjoying the praise but acting like it was nothing. "Soone has to, you know."

"I love you so much."

"And I love you more."

'...'

The maid remained silent, unable to decide how to act.

'Should I say sothing? Go away and leave them? Being a third wheel has never been more awkward. Feels like they might just jump on each other at any mont. I can't say anything. I can't leave, since that would confirm the existence of this awkwardness. I should just stay like this. They might kiss at any mont. Should I look away? But it would be rude since they are guests. But it would be rude not to look away! I'll just stay like this. Yes, I will stay still and completely immobile. As immobile as possible…'

"So."

The maid nearly flinched at the word.

"Yes?"

"Can you lead us to Rea's room?"

"Of course."

After long and glamorous corridors, three flights of stairs, and an incredibly spacious and luxurious living room,

"Yey!" Rea's shout could be heard through her room's door. "Another Victory Royale, let's gooo!"

Cero's facial expression froze at those words. A blast from the past.

'Fortnite?!'
