Asura Conqueror

Chapter 90: Eva's Hospitality

4:30 pm

Nexus sat on the couch, his eyes glued to the tv.

Both he and Eva had been managing the company the whole day and his ass had just recently touched the soft sofa.

Not long after he started relaxing, their doorbell sounded. He didn't mind as he thought that one Marcus' minions would go and let the guests in.

It sounded again, twice.

Nexus then remembered that only he and Eva were here. Ley and the other guards were in the Stone of Destruction.

He sighed before standing up. Nexus made his way out and strolled to the gate. As he got closer he saw four individuals standing outside, waiting.

--

Nedo, Reno, Brina, Pia curiously looked at Nexus.

They had seen this person stand beside Eva during the opening of 'The Corner' and guessed that this was Eva's husband.

"Good afternoon." Nexus greeted as he opened the gate. He then regarded each of them.

The four teenagers greeted back.

"Marcus will be here in a few minutes." Nexus checked his watch. "Follow me inside."

"Are you Marcus' dad?" Brina asked as they were led to the house by Nexus.

"Yes," Nexus answered. "Why? Don't we look alike?"

Brina shook her head and then nodded mid-way. "You look young and your hair is different."

The group chuckled.

Nexus touched his head. "You're right. Who looks more handsome?"

They arrived outside the front door.

Reno and the gang glanced at each other not knowing what to say. Both Reno and Nedi were men so it'd be weird to answer the question. They just waited for the girls to give their answer and they'll ride with it.

"You, sir" Pia spoke first. Marcus was good-looking, but there was something about Nexus that made him stand out. An innate charm.

The only reason why Nexus looked better than Marcus as of the moment was because Marcus is in a new body, a teenager's body who hasn't even made it past Enlightened Stage. There was still no heavenly charm of some sort unlike what Nexus had.

It doesn't mean that Marcus wasn't handsome. He is, but not as much as Nexus as of the moment.

"My answer is similar to Pia's." Brina didn't need to think long enough before she answered.

The boys chimed and had the same answer.

Nexus smiled. "Let's go in shall we?"

Nexus walked inside.

The four teenagers followed. They all felt excited. Each one of them wanted to meet Eva.

Nexus led them to the living room. "You guys can wait here."

He then went to the nearby couch and resumed watching his favorite shows.

The group dumbfoundedly looked at each other. They thought there would be maids of some sorts here but it turns out the house looked pretty empty aside from expensive furniture.

The group quietly conversed, trying not to disturb Nexus.

Not long after, a woman came downstairs.

Eva wore a pajama and a loose white shirt. She looked at the kids who were seated and smiled. She then shifted her head to look at Nexus.

"Didn't you at least give them something to eat?" Eva asked as she made her way to the kitchen.

Nexus paused the show he's currently watching, but before he could even reply, Eva once talked, now facing the teenagers. "Have you guys been waiting here long? I'm sorry, my husband can be quite inconsiderate sometimes."

Brina cleared her throat. "Good afternoon Ma'am Eva, It's fine. We also just arrived recently."

She stopped Reno's foot whose eyes were staring at Eva.

"Ow." Reno reacted in pain.

It was different for Reno, he already looked away the moment he saw Eva so Pia didn't need to do anything.

"I'll whip up something for you guys to eat. Just sit tight." Eva started getting ingredients from the fridge.

Seeing that they couldn't stop her from preparing something for them, Brina spoke. "Thank you for your hospitality."

"You are my son's friends after all." Eva glanced at them wearing a bright smile.

Nexus unpaused the show but he made the volume lower.

"She looks like a goddess just like our teacher, Emily," Reno whispered.

"That's true, but please control your eyes. It's embarrassing." Brina pinched his waist.

"Okay, okay okay, sheesh." Reno also didn't want to be caught staring. He doesn't want to be that perverted guy who stares at his friend's mom.

As if that wasn't enough, Emily came down wearing white dolphin shorts and a blue shirt. She stretched her hands up in the air showing her deep belly button and tasty curves.

Nedo swallowed hard. His breathing became faster.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you," Nexus casually warned, his eyes still on the tv.

Nedo immediately shifted his eyes and looked somewhere else.

Emily's eyes widened when she saw them.

"I didn't expect to see you guys here." Emily had a surprised look on her face.

"Hi ma'am, we're actually here to meet Marcus." Brina greeted.

"Oh," Emily walked towards Eva as she spoke. "He'll be here soon."

"And, done." Eva delivered the dishes she made to the four teenagers after being hugged by Emily.

"Thank you!" The four said in unison.

"Oh, I almost forgot." After placing the tray on the table, she got a few drinks from her pocket dimension.

She then said. "These are drinks that will be released next week. Tell me what you think of the taste."

Nedi, Reno, Brina, and Pia were stunned.

Eva then walked away.

"Marcus' mom is amazing. Holy cow!" Reno was careful not to raise his voice.

Pia giggled. "This means that we are the first ones to taste this in Estra."

"Hahaha," Reno laughed. "Take that Strongwalds."

---

Marcus made his way home. He already changed into his black-long sleeve and black pants.

He felt tired pretending. The effort he had to put in and the time he wasted just to raise a couple of ranks. But he didn't regret any of it. This was all for the future.

Marcus landed his car beside Nexus'. He went out, fixed his shirt, and walked towards the place where the pool was since there was a side entrance there.

The people inside already heard a car parking so they all guessed that Marcus had arrived.

A few seconds later Marcus walked into the living room.

He looked at his classmates. "You guys said 'night' so I thought that you'd come here when the sun was down."

Reno chuckled. "Class finished early so we decided to head here right away."

"Where were you anyway?" Nedo asked.

Marcus greeted Emily and Eva before replying "I went to Brawlrena and had some fun raising my rank."

"I think you're the only person who thinks that ranking matches in Brawlrena is fun. If we were as strong as you, we'd probably feel the same." Brina sighed. She too wanted to be strong. People only see the outside of how it looks to be in a big family, but in reality it's a lot more different.

"Make sure to train daily and drink our beverages, you'll grow stronger in no time." Marcus walked towards them.

Brina turned her head to Eva who stood nearby. "Mrs. Eva, thank you for the food, it was delicious."

"Hehehe," Eva giggled as she looked at her. "Do you want to learn how to make them?"
