Chapter 1125 You Belong With Us

I noticed that Nephilim has been silently watching her, I could notice within the eyes of my friend that she seemed slightly concerned. But there was also a hint of admiration inside of those eyes.

"You look a bit absentminded, Nephi. Is everything okay?" I wondered. She looked at me with a slight surprise, and then giggled.

"I suppose there\'s nothing that can escape your eyes, young lady." She said, looking at the food she had been eating. "I\'m fine, you don\'t have to worry. I was just… Thinking, this whole trip has brought a lot of new experiences to all of us, we\'ve learned more than we ever thought. From learning about Pyuku\'s true past, to fighting Apollo, and then meeting Sphynxiette. I\'ve realized there were many people like me out there, victims of the Gods, that also had nowhere to belong."

"Nowhere to belong?! But you belong with us!" I complained.

"I-I know, sorry if it came out as rude. But that\'s… Just what I sometimes think. And as these memories came back, I realized I wasn\'t even from this world either." She sighed. "Despite your help, I still feel detached deep down. I often wonder what I should do, or what\'s my purpose. Only left behind after eons, somewhat alive, and somewhat dead. Am I even a living being anymore? What I\'ve become… What they turned me into, I\'m a weapon."

"You\'re our friend!" I said. "Stop thinking those things!"

"I… I guess it is just some silly stuff inside of my head." Nephilim sighed. "I understand what you mean with those words, Sylphy. And I appreciate everyone\'s love too. I just… I sometimes can\'t help but think like that."

"…"

I felt slightly speechless. I wasn\'t able to really refute her words. She wasn\'t wrong there. Sometimes there are thoughts that will always plague our minds. Negative thoughts, thinks that make us worry, thinks that make us needlessly afraid. But even then, I need to make sure she doesn\'t feel alone.

"But don\'t worry, please!" She suddenly stopped my train of thoughts. "I was just saying. I am just somewhat relieved. I don\'t know if I should really be happy to know there are other people like me but… It does kind of creates some sense of fellowship."

"So that\'s how it is… Do you want to talk with Sphynxiette?" I wondered. "I think you two could get along. Even though I\'ve talked a bit with her, she seems open minded."

"I\'ll try later." She nodded. "Thank you for taking care of me and being so considerate, Sylphy. I will try to not eat your breakfast accidentally as much from now on."

"Hey! So it wasn\'t an accident if you are admitting it like that!" I got slightly angry. "And no problem, Nephi. I know it has only been about a year since we meet you, but I want you to know you\'re part of the family."

"Thanks… I really appreciate it." Nephilim smiled cutely, as she started stuffing herself with food again. "Hmm, eating always fills the void inside."

"D-Don\'t say it like that…" I facepalmed.

The night continued, until everyone ate enough and felt satisfied, and we moved back to our tents. Today was sure a busy day, but we accomplished many things, learned many things, and meet new people. Something we didn\'t really expected to do when we came to a desolate continent where people shouldn\'t even exist to begin with.

Aquarina noticed I have been rather thoughtful and silent, and made sure to snuggle with me in our shared bed. Well, she supposedly had her own bed, but never used it, so my own bed became our bed now.

"You worked really hard today, didn\'t you?" She let me rest my head on her chest while she caressed my hair. "Well done, you did good. You did well~"

"Hmm~ Am I your baby or something that you treat me like this?" I muttered in between giggles.

"Mom said that I always have to treat you like this whenever you look tired or stressed!" Aquarina said. "She told me that\'s how she makes papa feel better."

"I-Is that so?" I blushed a bit. "Well, not like I mind being spoiled by my cute girlfriend like this…" I rubbed my nose on her chest. The smell of soap made me feel so relaxed and dizzy.

"Heheh, then leave it to me." She smiled, kissing my forehead adorably while snuggling with me. "There, there… You worked hard. You\'re a good girl…"

"Hmm…" I snuggled with her and gave her little kisses on her nose and lips. "You\'re a good girl too, I love you a lot…"

"I love you a lot too~" She smiled adorably.

She was my everything… Oh my god, I would literally give my life and soul for her.

"My precious Aquarina…" I hugged her tightly. "I would give up everything for you, you are my everything… I love you. I love you… I love you so much."

"S-Sylphy…" Aquarina got slightly redder. "Heheh, me too. You\'re my little baby girl and my treasure, and my princess, and my queen and everything! We\'ll be together forever and ever."

"Yes… Never leave my side… I don\'t think I could ever breathe a day without knowing you\'re with me." I snuggled more with her.

I know we\'ll be leaving our separate ways for perhaps more than a year soon, but I just had to get those words out of my system… I think she understood what she meant, because she kept caressing my head and lovingly kissing me.

With her caress and her gentle words, Aquarina made me fall asleep more easily than I ever imagined I could sleep. While snuggling with her and feeling her warm body embracing my own, it was like sleeping in the clouds.

Once the next morning arrived, I felt refreshed!

And there was some good news as well.
