There's No Love In the Deathzone (BL) novel Chapter 759

Chapter 759: Side Story 4. Endless Journey - 42

After playing in the water for three days, the kids got bored of the sea breeze and opted to play games indoors while the yacht made a return journey to Lucre. The controller had never left Asa’s hands as if he was afraid he would pick up some random practice books and study if he did.

And as if he wanted to vent all of his stress in a different way from shouting, Asa had been playing action games since morning, going against the girls until they took a break for lunch. There was no strategy or anything, just pure rage-pushing with random bullshit thrown in the middle. It was full of screaming and boisterous laughing that the bodyguards gave up on staying in the same room with them.

"Is the exam that hard?" Nari asked after finished laughing at the second controller Asa broke just that day. They decided to play something tamer afterward--something that only needed ’yes’ and ’no’ buttons.

Asa groaned and sighed. "It’s hard if you want to go to a good place."

"At least you’re not an esper, Oppa," Nari grinned.

"My Appa had to study for college during his final Academy year. I heard he brought his practice books inside the Tower."

"Pfft--" Asa laughed. Thinking back, his Uncle Shin did warn him it would be very, very hard. At least, Asa didn’t have to go to school again at this point so he could concentrate on the exam. "Yeah, I guess I’m in a better place, at least. Guide’s final exam before measuring the vessel in Temples is also easy."

All he had to do was successfully guide an esper to get the letter of recommendation so he could measure his vessel in the Temple and submit the result to the guide center. Since he had already guided his twin regularly, it was just like arriving for a free point.

"That’s why you can still go on a cruise like this, right?" Lucy poked her brother’s cheek, grinning.

"That’s right!" Asa laughed. Although he looked like he was throwing a tantrum while playing the games, his stress was actually shedding more and more with every scream and button abuse. "But forget about the exam--how should I go through this, Lu?"

Asa pointed at the big screen with his chin. The game they chose to defuse the tension from the action game was none other than Han Shin’s and Reina’s favorite genre: dating sim. He patted the head using his thigh as a pillow, demanding an answer.

"Why would you ask me? The only one who’s ever in relationships is Sis Nari," Lucy shrugged before returning to her bag of chips. This vacation was a chance to eat whatever she liked without her daddy and uncles nagging at her.

Asa turned toward the older girl who had been reading some magazines, but she just shook her head. "Nah; real-life situations do not apply to games--and vice versa."

Both Asa and Lucy raised their brows--even Byul looked up from his commlink curiously. "Why?"

"Because it’s supposed to be fantasy, duh," Nari rolled her eyes, pointing at the screen. "Look at that guy; if someone comes at me acting that cocky and suddenly getting all flirty, I’d punch them already."

Asa arched his brow at the admittedly annoying love interest on the screen. "Violence much?"

"Okay, maybe a warning first..."

"A warning for a punch? How many seconds did you give them?"

Lucy rolled to her stomach. "Did?"

The three looked at Nari, who chewed the inside of her cheek before giving up and throwing her hands. "Okay, so what if I did?"

Asa threw his head back to laugh. Oh, too bad that Nari entered the Academy at the same time he started training from home. If he knew things would be interesting there, he would visit the Academy more often. Just for the gossip.

"Will you still punch them if they are good-looking?" Asa asked with a smirk.

"Who said anything about punching them in the face?" Nari scoffed. "Besides..." she looked at the pair of beautiful-looking siblings staring at her and sighed, shaking her head. "Haa, my standard is just too high to consider people good-looking."

Asa smirked, swiping his hair back. "Oh, my...thank you for the compliment."

"I’m talking about Kar Oppa," Nari rolled her eyes.

"I’m literally his twin?!"

"Whatever."

Lucy got up and tilted her head, poking her brother’s upper arm. "You’re never going out with anyone, Asa?"

"When do I have the time for that? My school friends would just scatter after graduation anyway," Asa shrugged before crossing his arms and narrowing his eyes. "I’m going to look for a girlfriend in college instead."

"Just don’t use dating sim’s strategy, okay?" Nari warned him.

"So I can’t tease her until she gets frustrated or pester her until she gives up and accepts me?" Asa tilted his head.

"No!"

"What about reserving the whole restaurant so we can dine in private and use drones to confess?"

"Do that for your fifth anniversary or something," Nari clicked her tongue. "Do things moderately at the start, okay? You’ll scare people if you get too aggressive from the start."

"Hmm..."

Asa didn’t seem to be satisfied, but Nari waved her hand and shifted the topic to someone else who wasn’t there. "Anyway, what about Kar Oppa? He didn’t have to study like you."

"Why are you suddenly talking like an expert? You’ve never even been in a relationship," Asa pushed his sister’s forehead. _{ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm}
