Unrivaled Demon's Odyssey

Everyone's gazes were fixated on Emilia, and they eagerly waited for Emilia to state her wish.

Emilia glanced at Asteria and Sophia and asked, "Can you guess my wish? It's something related to the sea. Each one of you only gets one chance to guess."

"...." Nero raised his brows and wondered, 'Maybe it's not something pervy.'

"We can't guess anything with the little info you provided. Give us some more hints," Sophia remarked.

"It's something I wished for when I first dived into the sea," Emilia replied.

"The underwater scenery is astonishing?" Sophia guessed.

"You are not wrong, but it's something else," Emilia replied and turned to Asteria to hear her gaze.

"Umm… I want to see this scenery with Zeus'?" Asteria guessed.

"You were close!" Emilia exclaimed and turned to Nero.

'I know what she is planning to wish, but let's not ruin the mood and act dumb.'

Nero decided to play dumb and asserted, "I want to pee in this cold sea?"

"No. Not even close," Emilia replied with dead eyes.

"Stop playing games, and just be out with it," Sophia demanded.

"Heh!" Emilia smirked and wished, "I want to have sex with Zeus in the sea."

"Underwater sex…" Sophia muttered.

"I knew it!" Nero sighed and thought, 'I hate to admit it, but that's what I also thought when I was cultivating in the sea.'

"So? Will you fulfill my wish?" Emilia asked with a curious and eager look on her face.

'I do want to try it.'

"Alright. But not now, probably tomorrow." Nero turned to Sophia and uttered, "Will you join me for the night?"

Sophia nodded and said, "Yeah."

"Good. Now, does anyone have any questions or something you would like to ask me? I am happy today, so…" he shrugged.

"What was the trident doing in the sea? I know you said you don't know. But what is this trident for, and what does it do?" Asteria asked.

"It's one of my celestial weapons." Nero shot a glance at Sophia and continued, "I had a friend, who was a water-sprint, named Amphitrite."

'I should wait and see how Sophi reacts to Amphi's name.'

"There was a king of the sea named Poseidon— the sea titan, and he wanted Amphitrite to marry him, but she wasn't interested. However, Poseidon was persistent and kept bothering Amphitrite."

"Then, one day, he brought calamity in the sea and flooded the towns and cities. Amphitrite got extremely angry, as not only did Poseidon kill many innocent lives on the land, but the creatures of the sea also died because of his selfishness."

"After that, Amphitrite came to me, asking for help. And fortunately, at that time, I was also looking for the entity who flooded the town because I lost some of my important friends in that tsunami too."

"So when I found a Poseidon, he was quivering in fear, afraid of me, begging for his life, offering his wealth, power, everything. But I wasn't interested, so I killed him and created this trident from him."

"So I had this Pusidon inside me?! Ew!" Emilia said with a disgusted look on her face.

"Oi oi. Don't make it sound like something disgusting," Nero remarked.

"But it's true! Ew! I feel weird now."

"You are wrong. It wasn't inside your body, and besides, it's just dead raw power, not the 'Pusidon'," Nero sneered.

"It's still the same. Dead or alive, it's the same," Emilia retorted with the same disgusted look on her face.

"No, it's not. It's like… uhh… umm… yes! Take a bear or some big animal, for example. We use its skin and fur to make clothes, eight? So does that mean it's disgusting? What about the bones? We use it as a weapon or catalyst. Is that disgusting?"

Nero thought his explanation was superb, and Emilia would understand, but she didn't.

"It's different. The bear's bones and skins don't go inside my body," Emilia refuted even more.

"What about their meat then? We eat them, and it goes inside our body. Now don't tell me you find that disgusting too."

"Ugh!" Emilia groaned and sighed, "Fine~ You win this one."

"..." Nero raised his brows and continued, "And my weapons aren't even made from their bodies or something. First, I kill them and send their souls into an endless abyss, then get rid of their physical bodies. And use the powers extracted from them to forge a weapon." He explained.

"Moreover, the weapon doesn't go inside your body. It goes in the power dimension, and your body is just a medium to access it." Nero ended up lecturing Emilia about how weapons bonding works.

"So please, don't grab a random weapon and try to insert it into your body, thinking it will go in the power dimension. 

Nero conjured Harpe and nodded at Sophia. Sophia raised her hand at Nero, and Nero tried to insert Harpe in her hand, but it didn't go.

"See?" Nero shrugged.

He then looked at Asteria and tried to insert Harpe in her hand, but it didn't go.

"See?"

Then, he moved Harpe to Emilia's chest in a sarcastic manner, thinking it would stop after touching her chest, but it passed through her body into the power dimension.

"..." Nero raised his brows as his face turned pale.

"Your body is weird," he commented.

"Can it be because you and Lady Emilia are like… always do it all the time, and because she is… you… fill her up and make her drink too?" Asteria stammered in a strange manner with a flushed face.

"Hmm…." Nero placed his hand on his chin and asserted, "That might be the case, but I think it's impossible. I am indeed Emilia's powerhouse, but that shouldn't give her the ability to access my weapons."

"Honestly, I don't know much about how the weapons and everything works. Because I never had time to attain all the celestial level knowledge."

When Nero turned 18, he was meeting new people belonging to different races every day. He learned skills and knowledge from them, then moved on. But after meeting a certain girl, he stopped everything and began focusing on enhancing his power and knowledge that later he had a hard time controlling. So he spent the rest of his time trying to learn to control his power and knowledge instead of achieving more power.
