Chapter 280: Indecent Thoughts
When Zach opened his eyes after pa.s.sing out again, he found Ninia sleeping next to him.
"…."
The bed was small and could only fit one person, but Ninia somehow managed to sleep next to Zach.
Usually, Zach saw Ninia with a veil on her head, so he never got to see her hair fully, but not, not only was he seeing her hair, he was seeing many more things.
Her golden hair looked so silky and soft that Zach felt like touching it, but he refrained from doing so, but when he noticed her pointy ears, he couldn"t hold himself.
However, when he tried to move his hand to touch Ninia"s ears, his body didn"t respond to his wishes. He soon realized that he was experiencing sleep paralysis.
Since the bed was small enough to fit only one person, the s.p.a.ce between Zach and Ninia was close to none and their bodies were touching each other.
Zach"s gaze automatically fell on Ninia"s cleavage since that was always the first thing he saw whenever he woke next to Aria or Aurora.
"They look surprisingly big…"
Zach suddenly felt guilty for having indecent thoughts about Ninia, who was a nun and his first follower. So he closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, but he ended up taking a deep breath, which filled his lungs with Ninia"s scent.
"…"
He opened his eyes with a confused and curious look on his face and sniffed Ninia again.
"This smell…."
He sniffed her once again and thought, ‘I have smelled this scent before somewhere. It feels so nostalgic for some reason."
He continued sniffing Ninia and tried his best to recognize the smell, but that didn"t last for long as Ninia suddenly opened her eyes.
"…!" Panicked, Zach closed his eyes to pretend to be asleep, so Ninia would think that he was simply taking loud breaths in his sleep.
But that didn"t work since it was too late.
"My Lord…" she muttered with a flushed face.
Zach hesitantly opened his eyes and said, "Before you say anything, let me tell you something first."
"Okay…"
"I am sorry!" he apologized. "But I swear I didn"t mean anything by that."
"It"s okay. I trust you."
"She is so innocent and kind!"
Ninia got off the bed and said, "I am sorry for sleeping next to you without your permission. I was doing a deck up on your body and only closed my eyes for a minute, but somehow I fell asleep. Maybe it was because I felt at ease after laying down next to you."
"Where are Aria and Victoria?" Zach asked in a calm voice.
"They were just here a while ago, but some injured players came, so they went to heal them," Ninia replied. "It"s my job to heal them, but as I was doing a check-up on you, they decided to go."
"I see."
There was an awkward silence between Ninia and Zach. They both stared into each other"s eyes, but Zach moved his gaze to Ninia"s chest and once again saw her cleavage, which was more visible than before.
After noticing Zach was looking at her cleavage, Ninia immediately turned around and fixed her clothes.
Zach, who felt guilty about his action, simply sighed at himself in disbelief.
Ninia then grabbed her veil from the table and started wearing it. She fixed her hair and tried to make a ponytail as it was night and there was no need for her to do her favorite hairstyle, which was curly from the side.
When Ninia was fixing her hair, Zach noticed a sigil on her nape and raised his brow.
"Can I ask about the sigil on your nape?" he asked.
"Huh?" Ninia turned to Zach with a confused look on her face as though she had no idea what Zach was talking about.
"There is a… sigil on your nape…"
"Is… there?" The puzzled expression on Ninia"s face was enough for Zach to realize that she was oblivious about it.
"I have been meaning to ask this, but I thought it would be an insensitive thing to ask, so I never considered asking it as it didn"t matter that much. But now, it does."
"Ask away…"
"How did you or the NPCs get in this game? Or should I say, this world?" Zach asked with a curious, yet calm look on his face.
"I… don"t really remember. When it was like… uhh… when I opened my eyes, I was here in the church and a voice rang in my ears that ordered me to heal the players," Ninia responded with varied expressions on her face. "So I guess it should be the same for the other NPCs too."
"Mother and Aria created the humans in the real world. And this world was created by the other G.o.ds, so that also makes the NPCs the native humans of this world," Zach uttered inwardly.
"However, this world was created recently, but the NPCs are already adults, with some even in their old age. So now, I have two theories; one is that this world always existed, and the VR game players were simply transported here, and the second theory is that the NPCs and monsters in this game are created and not born."
"The first theory sounds impossible, but the second theory doesn"t make much sense either."
"My Lord?" Ninia called out to ask after noticing he had zoned out.
"Ah… yes."
"You were talking about the sigil on my nape… is that the truth?" Ninia asked with an anxious look on her face.
Zach nodded and said, "Yes, there is a small, thumb-sized sigil on your nape."
"I never saw it…"
"Well, that"s natural because you can"t look at your nape in the mirror; at least, not fully."
"I see…"
Zach slowly moved his hand to check if his body was responding or not. After that, he sat up on the bed and placed his feet on the floor.
"It"s cold…"
Zach slowly stood up and tried to walk to the door, so he could meet his lovely wife and girlfriend, but his body still wasn"t fully responding, and he ended up tripping.
Ninia tried to hold him, but it was too late.
He fell on top of Ninia and felt the softness of her body. And after a few minutes, the door opened and Aria and Victoria walked in and found Zach and Ninia engaging in an indecent act.
