Digitize: Rebirth of the Silver Death God

Chapter 98: The Enchanting Fox, Encountering Elly

Nero soon arrived within Birgime; the view was the same as usual, with the night being one of bustle and activity. Its nightly air had a lively vibe, capable of uplifting one's mood, yet Nero wasn't quite able to attune himself as his attention was drawn to the beauty beside him.

Despite the speed of which he walked and his indifferent expression, the young beauty didn't seem to mind as she walked nearby him with a bewildering smile, her face carrying a teasing expression as she chatted on endlessly.

"Oh, look over there, that's Spirit Rabbit, a native of my home world, hehe, I say they are docile, but the truth is that each of their kind carried within them a wild passionate spirit, if there's a partner they've taken a fancy with, they will stop at nothing to make him their own..." Fox said with a smile as she stared at the bunny haired human that walked by, her eyes flashed in a strange light Nero had never seen before as she glanced at him soon after.

Nero remained silent, trying not to pay her any mind, but he still glanced at the Spirit Rabbit that passed by with a slight complex look in his eyes as he could tell that it was related to Lily's race.

'I sure hope she doesn't have strange feelings for me...' Nero thought with a slight look of worry on his face; even if he wanted to be a woman's first choice, she wasn't on his core list of fated partners.

Pff! Adult Nero tried to hold himself back, but he couldn't help but laugh out loud; he really enjoyed his younger self's mind.

Nero snorted, not saying anything, but Fox, made a sly smile as she saw him glancing at the Spirit Rabbit; she spoke teasingly, "Hehe... you're not interested, are you? That's not good, what am I to do? It's not good to ignore me because of other girls..."

With an annoyed expression, Nero finally gave Fox some attention as he asked, "Excuse me? What does that mean?"

Fox snickered at his scrunched-up face and poked his cheek, causing Nero to frown even more. Still, before he could react, she replied with a knowing look on her face as she looked him in the eyes and licked her lips, "It means what it means, we're all intelligent lifeforms, are you trying to make a girl say embarrassing things out loud?"

Nero was a bit startled at this girl's bold manner; he took a step back, causing her to smile even more as she spoke, "Hehe... hmm~ so shy... I likey."

As Nero heard those words, his face turned dark as he thought, 'Just what the hell is wrong with these girls? Are you telling me that she's interested in me after seeing me just once?'

As Nero stared deeply at Fox, she similarly stared at him with her hypnotizing and confident eyes. When Nero saw her look, he knew full well that she wasn't the type to change her mind; he sighed and spoke, "Listen here, umm... whatever your name is? I'm sure we don't know each other, so I won't even mention your interest in me; my only question is, why are you following me?"

Fox didn't look at Nero after hearing his words; her eyes turned to the starry sky as she gazed at the bright moon and hovering the universe ring.

After a short while, she then glanced at him and replied with a smile, 'Do you need a reason to like someone?'

When Nero heard this, he showed a stunning look as he couldn't find an answer for it; a petite figure flashed in his mind for a bit, causing him to shake his head with wonderment before he looked at her.

Now that he stared at Fox again, he found her to be even more dazzling due to the night-lit streets, the colorful lights dousing her with a cheerful but somewhat seductive radiance.

Yet, even so, her current expression and mood seemed a bit different, carrying a tinge of sadness.

After if she sensed his look, Fox glanced at him and smiled before she spoke, "It's Mia..."

Nero was a bit confused at this; Fox rolled her eyes and spoke again with a sly smile, "My name is Mia, there... now you know my name, so we aren't strangers anymore."

After saying this, Mia gave Nero a charming smile, showing a look only a few could ever dream to witness, a dazzling face that could swallow the hearts and souls of any who deem themselves a man.

Despite his strong will and mind, Nero found himself in a daze as he stared at her. Adult Nero, who seated in his consciousness sighed as he spoke, "As expected of this Little Demoness, a Charming Spirit Fox is nothing that just anyone can look past, even if it was my younger self..."

However, despite saying this, Adult Nero didn't dare to look at her for too long, seating himself in crossed-legged posture as he indulged in meditation.

As she saw Nero lost himself, Mia felt pride; her race wasn't the kind that showed shyness, nor did they appreciate being rejected by those of the opposite sex.

Now that she finally touched his mind, she felt there was hope in capturing his spirit, but sadly now wasn't the time; she looked again and jumped away towards a different sector as she sent a message to his mind, "Let's meet up and have fun on another day, okay, Silver Boy..."

A while passed, and Nero returned to his senses; he sighed while clenching his fists as he muttered, "It looks like I'll need some mental training..."

Nero shook his head after saying those words as he continued towards the Battle Arenas, but a notification popped up before his eyes as he moved.

____

[Mia has sent you a friend request, shall you accept it?]

____

Nero looked at this with a bit of hesitancy; he wanted to cancel it, but as he recalled his previous state and that smile of hers, he sighed and accepted it; he then continued onwards while thinking, "Since I can't control fate, it's best to let nature take its course."

After saying those words, Nero no longer thought about the previous affairs but went towards the arena; a few moments later, he had arrived before its entrance, noting that it was a bit crowded.

'Oh, it looks like many are thinking to boost themselves before the Gate of Legends Event,' Nero thought as he saw the clustered scene, but it didn't stop him from pressing onwards. He was about to make his way inside, but suddenly, he was disturbed.

"Hey, Nero! Wait for me!" A soft but loud female voice said.

When Nero heard it, he sighed, knowing full well who it belonged to, he slowly turned around to look at its source, but as he didn't, his eyes couldn't help but widen.

There, Elly now stood behind him with a joyful expression and a sweet-looking face that seemed as if it was dripped in honeydew, her petite figure giving off a strange power that would make one feel the urge to grasp her and keep her safe. Her long chestnut-colored hair loosely hangs below her back as some parts of it had accessories; she now wore a new kind of female battle dress fitted with shiny armor at key areas as she held a sword heroically.

'So cute...' Nero thought to himself as he didn't know she could show such a side.

However, while he thought this, Nero didn't want to let such thoughts be discovered. He quickly returned to his usual manner and spoke, "Classmate Elly, it's been a while, have you been well?"

Elly looked at Nero with a strange look, she played with her fingers and lowered her head as she spoke, "Of course I am, m-mother scolded me, but I'm fine now, are you still coming to tutor me?"

When Nero heard the word mother, his face turned a little distant, as he fell into a silence for some time.

Elly looked at him curiously, noting his expression; for some reason, she felt a bit remorse as she thought, 'Huh? What's wrong with him?'

As she pondered, she noted that he still hadn't spoken yet; she soon started to panic a bit, thinking that she said something wrong as her face became filled with concern as she spoke, "Nero, you seem a bit down, w-was it something I said?"

Nero, who recovered his demeanor after hearing her words, looked at her and spoke again with a smile, "Ah, sorry about that, I just fell a little distracted, yes I am going to be tutoring you so don't worry about it."

While Nero wasn't too happy about his mother's state, after meeting Avollo and suppressing his negative emotions, he was at least levelheaded enough to not ditch a previous arrangement.

Elly walked up in front of him and bent her body forward before looking at him in the face as she asked cutely, "Really?"

Nero found this side of her to be even cuter; he sighed and answered, "Yes, really, so don't fret over it, by the way, you said your mother scolded you, what was that about?"

Elly didn't notice it, but after hearing his words and recalling the 'conversation' with her mother, her face turned sightly red as she grew conscious of her closeness to him, she looked away from Nero and backed up.

Nero gave her a suspicious look at her behavior as he started to have strange thoughts but didn't confirm them.

After a short while, Elly recovered her usual manner and spoke as if changing the topic, "I-It's nothing, let's talk about it later. Oh yeah, I noticed that you were heading for the Battle Arena. Are you joining the Ranking List tonight?"

Nero gave her a good look before he turned and faced the building with sharp eyes as he spoke, "Yup, today I make my name known..."

Elly smirked at those words and spoke, "Oh, so you've finally come to terms with Silver Boy, that's good to hear."

"Hmph! Like hell I have!" Nero said with a snort as hurried into the building.

Elly looked at this with a laugh on her face; she stared at his back with a warm smile as she followed him into the building. Yet, as the two vanished, Raynas, who had returned after buying something, watched this from afar before sighing as he turned around and left to do other things.

His figure vanishing in the crowd of Digitizers as the night seemed to have finally entered its most bustling hours.
