"I have something I need to tell you first."

Emery said while holding Klea's hand. However, the girl refused to listen and instead began kissing his neck.

"Wait… wait…"

"Mmn… No more excuses… we're going to do it today… I don't want to wait anymore," she charmingly said in a low voice, her warm breath caressing his skin.

"Klea, wait…"

The more Emery tried to speak, the more excitedly the girl kissed. His resistance only served to turn her on even more.

Klea used her other hand to quickly tear Emery's new silver clothes, revealing his bare chest and abs.

"My… you've grown so much."

Just from her voice, Emery could tell that she was pleased.

Without waiting another moment, the girl dove in and started kissing his chest.

She even gave a bite.

"Mmh… Klea… wait…" Emery panicked.

It wasn't that he didn't enjoy it. On the contrary, he really did. Still, he knew that if they wanted to continue, Klea needed to know.

Without hesitation, Emery decided to just blurt out the words that came to his mind.

"Klea, I was unfaithful to you!"

"..."

As if she had just been struck by thunder, the excited look on her face suddenly froze.

She slowly looked up to meet his eyes. As Emery met those eyes filled with disbelief, his heart was filled with guilt.

"What… What are you saying…? Unfaithful?"

For her, that word was the most taboo in her vocabulary. And for it to come out of Emery's mouth…

"Emery, you're joking, right? This isn't something you should be joking about!"

Emery was silent. Klea hoped that it was a lie, but the look on Emery's face said otherwise.

"Do you even know what being unfaithful means?"

Klea's eyes were bloodshot, and her voice trembled as those words came out of her mouth.

Emery let out a deep sigh before trying to explain as calmly as he could.

"Mm, unfaithful is probably not the right word… I wasn't unfaithful, but I did sleep with… someone."

He couldn't help but avert his eyes down.

Klea also tried her best to remain calm and carefully asked.

"Ah… You mean Gwen, right…? I know about what happened with Gwen… and I forgive you for that…"

Emery was a little surprised. Was what he did with Gwen something that needed Klea's forgiveness? If that's the case… then what kind of forgiveness would he need for this one?

Once again, Emery tried to muster up his courage to tell her what happened. For some reason, this felt much more difficult than going against that centipede monster…

Right now, he would rather fight 10 of those things than face this painful situation.

"Klea, I'm not talking about what happened with Gwen… This happened during the mission. You know… I was stranded on an island with…"

"That snake bitch!" she immediately exclaimed in anger.

The sudden curse startled him. At the same time, Emery was reminded of how Klea had always hated Silva, especially because Silva managed to defeat her in that one-on-one duel in the second-year Magus games final.

"I knew it! That bitch always stared at you with a weird look… She poisoned you, didn't she!?"

"That…" Emery hesitated. "While it's true that I was sort of…. poisoned, it wasn't her that did it."

"Huh? Emery, are you defending her? Who else would do such a vile thing if not her!? It must've been her doing!"

"No, Klea, listen… I was poisoned because of a strange fruit, and we were all affected…"

Klea was stunned. However, it wasn't by the cause, but by the strange word he used.

"We… all? We all?" the girl repeated in disbelief and looked down. Were her ears deceiving her?

Suddenly, she remembered that another girl was also with them on that island…

That red-haired girl.

Still, with a shocked expression, Klea looked back up into his eyes.

"Ugh… Are you… being serious?"

The girl quickly got out of bed. Her breathing became heavy and somewhat irregular as she put one hand on her chest before moving it to cover her mouth.

"Yuck… Emery, I really can't believe you."

Emery hurriedly sat up and held her hand.

"Klea, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to… We were all under the influence of the fruit."

Klea pulled her hand out of Emery's grasp and took a deep breath. "Huh, with two beautiful girls… I find it hard to believe that you're really sorry about it!"

"No… I mean, yes… urgh…" Emery was confused. However, before he could continue explaining to clear things up, Klea walked toward the door with hurried steps and slammed it open.

"Please get out. I don't want to be near you right now… I need… Just get out!"

Her eyes glaring at him were slightly reddened and moist. Emery wanted to speak more, but he couldn't get a word out of his mouth when he looked at those glistening eyes.

In the end, he hesitantly walked out of the room with weak steps. Emery turned around to say something before leaving, but just as he opened his mouth, the door was quickly shut.

He let out another deep sigh and decided to sit in front of her door, giving her some time to process the information but still waiting for her.

It was a small ship that was filled with over 800 acolytes. Their attention was already attracted when they heard the loud slam of the door. They initially ignored Emery when they saw him sit there, but after an hour, a few dozen people had begun to whisper among each other.

However, that wasn't all. The commotion even prompted Thrax, Chumo, and Julian to come.

"Did you two fight? What happened?" Julian asked when he saw him just silently sitting in front of the door.

Emery only shook his head.

Thrax also spoke, "Emery, don't worry about it too much. It might take some time, but if I can let go of my love, then I'm sure you can too."

Emery was dumbfounded by the Thracian's comment. "No, no, everything will be fine… Don't worry about me, I'll make it work…"

As the three had been friends with him for so long, they knew that Emery was only trying to reassure them.

And maybe even himself.

This time, it was Chumo who spoke.

"Emery, maybe I can help you talk to her. You know… since I already have a girlfriend, I might be able to help you say a thing or two…"

All three of them simultaneously turned to look at him. They didn't say a word, but their expression said it all.

Seriously?

Chumo quickly averted his eyes. "N-Nevermind, I don't have anything to say."

As they were thinking of what to say in this awkward situation, a familiar voice could be heard from behind the three.

"You look so pathetic right now, wolf boy."

It was the red-haired girl, Annara.

"Annara?" Emery looked at her. "What are you doing here?"

The girl didn't reply. Instead, she continued to walk until she arrived in front of him.

"Get up!"

"No… I'm going to stay here. I won't move."

The girl rolled her eyes. "I mean get out of my way, your girl asked me to come."

"What… why?"

Annara let out a sigh before responding with another question, "She found out about our little party of three, didn't she?"

Right at this moment, the door behind Emery opened. Klea looked at Annara with a smile and thanked her for responding to her call before letting her in. However, before any of the four outside could say anything, she quickly closed the door.

When he turned back to look at his three friends, he found that their expressions had turned funny.

"Emery, you are the man!" Thrax said in amazement and Chumo had his thumbs up. Only Julian didn't comment on it and pulled the two away, leaving Emery alone once again.

'What does Klea want to talk to her about?'

Not long after the three left, the door was once again opened. As Annara stepped out of the room, she looked at Emery and said, "You owe me twice now… big time."

The red-haired girl then walked away.

Meanwhile, Klea was standing still next to the open door, staring at Emery speechless.

Seeing how much more relaxed her expression was, it seemed that the girl had calmed down. With a little hesitation, Emery slowly approached her.

"I'm really sorry if I hurt you, I didn't mean to… I really think you should know."

Klea closed her eyes for a second.

"Mm… She explained to me what happened. It's not that I don't trust you, it's just easier to hear it from someone else. I'm sorry too, I was too emotional… And thank you for being honest with me."

Klea's words brought him a lot of relief. Emery stepped forward wanting to hold her, but the girl put her hand on his chest to stop him and said

"I… I just need to know one thing first…"

"Anything."

Klea's hands were slightly trembling, but she looked straight at him seriously as she asked.

"That girl... Silva… do… do you love her?"
