Asura Conqueror

The three started eating. Emily and Eva finally had the chance to talk properly.

Eva wiped the side of her mouth with a napkin. She then looked to her side where Emily was and said, "Fire your questions away."

Emily grabbed a glass and drank its contents.

"Just start from the very beginning I guess, and I'll ask from time to time." Emily faced Eva.

Eva took a deep breath. She looked at Nexus who nodded at her and began retelling Emily parts of the story.

About how she met Marcus and Nexus in Kellar and how they helped her when Krieg tried to go to her apartment.

"That guy did that?! Where is he right now? Is he still roaming Kellar?" Emily asked.

Eva blinked and looked at Nexus. "Well, he is--"

"He is currently my patient," Nexus spoke.

Emily turned towards him "You're a doctor?"

Nexus thought for a while and then he proudly nodded. "Hmm, I'd like to think of myself as one. Just last night I saved someone from drowning by lifting his head up the water a couple of times."

Eva tilted her as if asking what he did last night. She knew that Nexus would hardly go out of his way to save someone.

Emily just nodded. She didn't really understand what Nexus meant.

"Big Sis continue." Emily enjoyed the story her sister was telling her.

Eva went on with her story, she didn't hide anything as Nexus already told her not to, except for the part about reincarnation.

'Could my sister also be someone like me?' Were Eva's thoughts when she was conversing with Nexus at that time. She didn't ask it out loud though.

The story went on. To the part about her resigning, learning alchemy, learning magic, going to Kellar City, the events in the hot spring, the pirates, and how she made friends with the young lady of the Xalia family.

The story went on for a couple of hours and it was already 4 pm when Eva finished telling the story.

"That's about it." Eva smiled.

Emily has already composed herself. Throughout the story, she asked a few questions from time to time. Eva would also pause for a bit to give her a couple of minutes to take it all in.

Listening about how your sister who worked in a hotel had that kind of adventure was a bit too much for one sitting.

"So, you're in Estra to start a nightclub?" Emily asked.

"We start with a nightclub. Expand to other things later on. I don't know much about business so why am I even the one talking." Nexus answered.

Eva chuckled "What he said was basically it."

"I'm so happy for you Big Sis." Emily smiled. Her sister can finally live a better life.

Eva hugged her sister. "Shouldn't you be happy for the two of us? We're on the same boat you know."

"Mm," Emily nodded as she was in the embrace of Eva.

After their short moment, Emily turned to Nexus, bowed her head, and said, "Thank you."

Nexus, who was savagely violating the dish he just ordered, stopped.

He looked at Emily and shook his head and changed the subject. "What subject are you teaching in that University?"

Emily blinked. She was not expecting this question. She cleared her throat. "I'll be teaching 'Magic - The Basics'. It's only a minor subject and is taken by all first-year students. Basically, it just reviews them on what they've learned thus far and a few other topics."

"Magic The Basics, Magic The Basics, alright." Nexus nodded.

Eva thought Nexus was making small talk and she also thought that he was pretty bad at it.

Emily checked the time on her watch. "I think I have to go. I still need to prepare for my first class tomorrow."

Eva agreed "That's right, and you still have to set up your room at home."

"Ye--What?" Emily didn't quite understand.

Eva laughed seeing her sister's face. "You didn't think I'd let you stay there in school and let you eat their 'free' food did you?"

The trio went out of the restaurant and headed straight to the Estra University.

Their table in the restaurant had piles of plates stacked up. Nexus, was of course, the culprit. While the girls talked, he was busy munching and ordering dishes in a loop.

Their little group arrived in front of the main gate. Eva followed Emily to her place. Nexus stayed with the guards.

The sun was already setting on the horizon.

Nexus stood there by the gate and watched the two ladies walk side by side.

'Marcus would be thrilled to see her again.' He thought.

Nexus went towards the guards and tried to spark a conversation.

"You guys watched any action series lately?" He asked

The two guards looked at each other. One of them spoke, "I watched a House of the Watchers, Azure Lightning, Mystic Hospital, Fancy Cops, and John da Doe recently."

"Hmm, John da Doe? Is that new?" Nexus has not seen this one before.

"It's pretty new, it's similar to Fancy Cops. It's not really famous." The guard responded.

Nexus nodded a few times. "I'll be adding that to my list then. Speaking of Fancy Cops, that was nice right?"

"Erm" The guard had a hard time answering. "Well, it's mediocre for me."

"Bad taste." Nexus scoffed.

He continued to converse with the guards and soon Emily and Eva came back. They weren't holding anything since it's all in Eva's spatial destruction ring.

They rode in the car and went straight home. Emily was shocked at seeing how big the house was, and not only that, there was also a pool and a jacuzzi right outside.

She happily toured the house with Eva while Nexus sat on his favorite spot.

After that, Emily and Eva went to the garden to sit and talk.

"Emily, how has Estra treated you?" Eva asked with concern.

She already noticed Emily's tired eyes. She also noticed how her sister is a lot thinner. Most of all she saw the greenish bruise on her left arm which angered Eva when she saw it.

Nexus also saw it but since Eva didn't comment about it in the restaurant, he also didn't say anything.

Emily dropped her head a bid while touching the bruise.

Surprisingly Nexus stood up from his couch, went to them, and leaned on the sliding door close to the table where they were sitting. He could use his soul sense to listen but he'd rather listen like this.

"You don't have to hide anything. Just say it." Eva softly spoke.

"It's nothing big really. Discrimination here in Estra is quite rampant. If they know you're from a 3rd rate country, they'll hardly see you as a human.

At first a few of the people from work just threw a couple of disgusting words at me. It then escalated to accidental bumping, which was pretty hard.

This bruise was the one I got yesterday. I got 'accidentally' hit by another professor's magic because I didn't agree to go out with him. Last night, I was really close to breaking down.

I couldn't do anything. I was so powerless, so I just kept my mouth shut." Emily poured her heart out.
