Chapter 97

"Truth..." No matter what Ekko wasn't going to choose dare.

Evelyn smirked and asked." Do you want to kiss me right now?"

"..."

" Dare!!" Ekko broke his internal promise instantly.

Evelyn leaned in closer and wrapped her arms around Ekko's Neck." I dare you to kiss me~~"

"...Never have I ever-"

" That is not the game we're playing EkKo~!!."

'Kai'sa where the hell are you, there's a scary lioness trying to eat me.

Meanwhile, Kai'sa who was still playing with Cerbie in the Living room suddenly sneezed.' Huh, I wonder who's talking about me.'

"Hey guys, sorry I'm late, I just had to take care of something. ( A very adorable something.)...

Mhh? Evelyn are you okay, you look redder than usual."

When Kai'sa entered she immediately noticed Ekko stretching in the corner by himself. Meanwhile, Evelyn was stretching her arms while liking her lips.

" I'm absolutely fine Kai'sa, I Just did a quick warm-up to pump me up is all, now then should we get started." Evelyn said while thinking in her mind.' You've escaped me twice Ekko I'll definitely catch you off guard next time.'

" Ye, I'm ready to go when you are."Ekko said while inwardly he was thinking' Thank god your back.'

And so the three of them started practicing and to Ekko's surprise Evelyn didn't try to flirt or tease him but actually took the session very seriously.

' Look like she takes what she has now very seriously.' Ekko got to find out a side to Evelyn he didn't know she had.

After around two hours, the trio finally called it quits and finished practicing. Evelyn and Kai'sa decided to go to the hotsprings before heading to the recording studio to meet up with Ahri and Akali about the song.

Ekko In the meanwhile went to go take a shower in his own room. On the way there he also saw Cerbie and decided to give him a bath as well.

Thankfully after washing Cerbie yesterday all that pink dye that was covering his fur washed right off, but there were still blotches of pink so he decided to clean the rest of it.

After a quick shower, Ekko made his way back to the living room to hang out with Masane but when he got there not only was Masane present but so was Eris.

"Ekkooooo-Nya-" Eris called out in happiness as she jumped from the Sofa and into his arms, being quick to react he caught her.

"Eris? Weren't you helping out Granny Chio, what are you doing here so early." It was only one o'clock but the shop should have closed around six or seven.

" Granny closed earlier because she said that there's going to be a festival tomorrow, so I came back. Ekko could we go to the festival tomorrow, please please please!!"

" Festival, so that's what all the fireworks and the decorations were for." Masane said as she remembered hearing the fireworks go off at night.

" Festival, festival...Oh that's right granny Chio told me about it before, the twin goddesses festival, I completely forgot about it." When Eris had said something about a festival Ekko was reminded of the story Granny Chio had narrated to him a while back.

" If you wanna go that's fine by me, in fact, why don't we all go tomorrow, I'll talk to the other girls and see if they're up for it."

"Yay~~, Oh! Ekko can I also wear a yakata, Granny Chio said I would look beautiful in one." Eris said and Ekko imagining Eris in a yukata really wanted to see it now, so he agreed and said he would buy one for everyone today.

Though he was really going to buy them from the system shop.

" Mhh, sounds like a place for some inspiration, you can count me in then Ekko." Masane said and Ekko deadpanned at her.' So if it didn't have anything to do with your book you wouldn't have gone.'

Ekko then put Eris down back on the couch and watched some TV with them before his phone suddenly buzzed.

Checking his phone he saw two messages, one from his subordinate Neon and another from his friend Shelly.

{ Neon: I hope you are doing well Odin-Sama.

I'm messaging you because my men have found that strange activities have been occurring in the forests of japan. There have been multiple sightings of dead animals in the forest.

Normally this would be no concern for us but strangely enough none of the dead animals were eaten or killed but it would seem that they just died on the spot.

And the new sightings have come dangerously close to our territory. Would you like the men to Patrol the forests as well for any weird Activity.}

After seeing that message Ekko thought for a second before replying back. After he gave Neon a set of commands he then read the second message but once he did he couldn't help but sweat drop and curse.

'Damit why was this girl so determined to see my fake cat, I thought she would have forgotten about it and moved on.'

Ekko was still being pestered by shelly for photos of the cat that he didn't even have.' Looks like I'm going to have to go and adopt a cat, actually, that might not be a bad idea, they might make Cerbie some good company.'

{I'll send you the photos on Monday.} Ekko replied, not knowing that very soon he would be reuniting with a certain golden eyes feline.

When Ekko put his phone away Eris who was sitting on the couch suddenly gasped and immediately jumped off the couch before running to her room.

Ekko looked at Masane with confusion but she looked back at him with equal amounts of confusion.

That was until Eris came back with something in her hands. Eris then knelled down on the floor and adorably patted her thighs while looking at Ekko.

" Eris, do you want me to lay my head on your lap." Eris nodded.

" Why?"

" I heard from grany Chio that she had a son and that she used to clean his ears. I want to try it too...for my mission." Eris finally explained her actions and Ekko thought about it for a second before standing up.

He then layed his head down on Eris's Soft thighs and Eris hummed in happiness while opening up the tool cleaning kit.

Masane seeing this chuckled remembering when her own mother used to do this to her, but those memories were kinda blurry to her now.

" Don't worry Ekko I'll make sure to be very gentle. So just Relax okay." Eris Said in an almost motherly tone.

" Sure thing." Ekko said as Eris started to clean out his ears with a Japanese Ear picker.

And as she did Ekko somehow ended up falling asleep on her lap to the amusement of Masane, Eris, and all of the K/da girls who passed by to get a drink.

"Hghuuuuu!!!!"

Ekko groggily opened his eyes, while immediately recognizing the ceiling of the living room." When did I..."

" Good Morning Ekko-Nya, did you sleep well." Eris asked while Ekko was still laying on her lap. She was slowly stroking his hair while looking down at him with a gentle expression.

" Yes I did, I'm sorry for sleeping on you, your legs must feel numb by now I'll get..." Before Ekko could stand up Eris Stopped him and smiled.

" I'm Fine Ekko-Nya, no need to worry." Eris Insisted and seeing that she didn't mind Ekko nodded his head while continuing to lay on her lap.

" You've been here for a few weeks now Eris, I'm sure you've collected plenty of data for your mission...what do you think of earth, I mean, have you enjoyed your stay here so far."

"Nyaaaa~~ It's the best Ekko, I've made so many new friends, and found out so much about this world.

I still haven't scratched the surface of what I wanted to do or try here, and there are so many more people I want to play with.

" Is that so, I'm glad you're...mhhh!!" Suddenly while Ekko was talking Eris suddenly Kissed him, Brushing her lips against his in a practiced manner.

Ekko gulped while Eris's Hand Rubbed Ekko's Neck and then his chest. After a full minute, Eris finally pulled away from Ekko and with a cheeky but bashful smile she said.

" And thank you Ekko for showing me and helping me even though you didn't have to...

Ermm...Ekko you see I-I want to repay you, for providing me with shelter, you even went as far as feeding me...and based on the social ways of your people it's natural to repay a person..."

" I guess... But Eris you don't!!"

"So-so..." Suddenly Eris's breathing became heavy and her cheeks flushed redder than usual, she couldn't even look Ekko in the eye while her body squirmed.

"Be-before somebody can interact with somebody else you need to have money...But well, my investigations are still not yet finished soo...

"R-Repaying you with a sexual relationship is.."

Ekko's Eyes slowly widen in shock at Eris's sudden offer but before he could say anything she continued.

" Well about that...Our species' reproductive systems are quite similar, so...Perhaps I...I think that even Itself is possible but...!!!"

"!!!!!!"

" Hold up a minute Eris, I appreciate the offer, trust me I do, but when I gave you a place to say I never expected anything in return, so you don't need to concern yourself with repaying me okay."

" E-Erm but the material I read were..." Eris stuttered while both her fingers poked each other.

"Materials?" Ekko asked in a confused tone.

" Cana gave me a bunch of books to read, she said they were...Erotica, she said if I did the things in the book you would be really happy."

'Dammit Cana, I'm so punishing you when you get back. ( Not in that way you perverted readers.)

"They're wrong Eris, there just fiction okay." Ekko reassured and for some reason, Ekko thought for just a second he saw disappointment on her face.

" I-is that right...well that's great to hear. Erm, Truth be told Ekko-San could be the right one for me but...I'm still 16 years old...so I haven't experienced such actions with the opposite sex, so I was wondering what I would do.."

" Then that must be great to hear..."

" Y-yes." The two of them then chuckled while trying to get rid of the previous awkwardness.

Meanwhile, Rangiku who had already returned home and had been secretly spying on the two smiled before walking away.
