MMORPG: Rebirth of the Mortal Online

Chapter 213: Bold and Panic



The light of the morning burst through the window, and the golden glow of the rising sun filled every inch of the bedroom.

In the bed, under a single thin blanket, lay two naked figures, their bodies intertwined in a peaceful embrace.

While they were still sleeping, a phone suddenly began to ring on the nightstand next to them.

"Mm..." Alice, still half asleep, took the phone from the nightstand, accepted the call, and placed it against her ear. "Yes..."

"Alice, are you awake?"

"Mom?" Alice rubbed her eyes and answered. "What time is it?"

"Way in the morning!" Serah's voice came from the phone. "What did you do so late last night that you were still sleeping?"

"Mm..." Alice's eyes slowly widened open, and she turned to look at the bed, blush returning to her face. "Nothing..."

With eyes still closed, Adam was peacefully sleeping beside her, naked like when he was born, but the thin blanket still slightly covered him.

She sat back up in a hurry, and then felt slight soreness in her lower region from last night's activities.

"Ouch..."

"Ouch?" Serah said from the other side of the phone. "What happened?"

"I accidentally bumped my head on the nightstand." Alice cooked a quick excuse and nervously laughed. "How's the hot spring trip been?"

"Horrible!" Serah shouted. "There was a downpour yesterday, and since the hot springs were outside, we couldn't use them. It looks like we have to return early, so we'll be back at home in about an hour!"

"Uh?" Alice blinked in surprise, not expecting their trip to be cut short, and then felt a slight panic. "O-oh, I see!"

"I need the house to be clean by the time we're there. Wake up that fool Adam or just plug the cable of his VR pod to help you!"

"I-I'll do that..." Alice chuckled nervously. "Have a nice trip back."

"Thank you, my dear daughter."

With that, the call ended.

"Adam!" Alice shook him by the shoulder. "Adam!"

"Mm?" Adam's eyes fluttered open, and sleepily asked. "What is it?"

"Mom and dad will be back home in an hour!" Alice stood up from the bed and quickly ran to

the wardrobe to put on some clothes. "We'll need to clean everything"

She then sniffed the air and felt like the scent of yesterday's lovemaking was still lingering in the room.

With panic, she opened the window and rushed out of the room.

"I'll leave my room to you; I'll clean the shower!"

"Mmh..." Adam sat up to the edge of the bed and rubbed his eyes. "They will be back in an hour? I thought their trip would take a few days longer."

"Something happened!" Alice's shout came from downstairs. "Hurry, clean, clean!"

Adam let out a yawn, removed the bedsheet, and while dragging his feet behind him, walked towards the bathroom to put them on the washing machine.

However, at that moment, Alice saw what he was about to do and asked. "What're you about to do?"

"But these on the washing machine?" Adam asked as these bedsheets were sticky with their love substances.

"The stains will remain!" Alice shouted. "We must burn them. Yeah, burn!"

Adam looked at her with a twitching lip. "Yeah, burning is definitely less suspicious. I'll throw it in the trash, alright?"

"What if my mother checks the trash out?" Alice asked. "You know how serious she is about cleanliness."

"I don't think she is going to dig through the trash." Adam said with a smile. "I'll throw these to the garbage cans outside, alright?"

Alice nodded, but then her eyes looked down at him and she bashfully said. "Perhaps you should put some clothes on first before going outside?"

"Mm?" Adam looked down, wryly smiled, and returned to his room to get some clothes.

With a chuckle, Alice shook her head and went back to cleaning the shower.

The seconds went by, minutes flew past, and soon the hour was up-the house looking as clean as ever, and there wasn't a speck of dust in sight.

Alice, still nervously, did some final cleaning on her room-she was afraid of her mother as she had crazy instincts that could sense even the tiniest imperfection.

She was afraid that she would find out about what transpired last night.

At that moment, they heard a car roll down to their gravel driveway.

Adam peeked from the window and saw that they had arrived, still inside the car chatting about something.

"They've come." Adam chuckled and walked over to Alice, who was waiting by the front door like a nice daughter. "Relax, you're tense."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"I am trying..." Alice nervously said. "Right, what if she smells something in me? I forgot to take a shower!"

Adam turned her head towards him and planted a bold kiss on her lips-her eyes turned blissful and unfocused for a moment, but then she heard the door slamming outside, and her eyes turned panicky.

She gently pushed him a step back and wiped her lips. "What're you doing, stupid?!"

"Haha." Adam laughed and turned to the door with a smile. "Calm down; your mother will see if you're nervous."

"Hmph..." Alice pouted, but she felt less nervous now that Adam was making light of the situation.

After all, he was in bigger trouble if they found out about what they did. He would be thrown to the streets like a stray dog.

The door then opened, and with bags in hand, John and Serah entered the room.

"Welcome home, mom, dad!" Alice's smile brightened their mood significantly.

"My dear daughter." Serah hugged her daughter and then looked at Adam with a stinky look. "A face I thought I would never see again."

"Welcome back." Adam smiled.

John nodded and looked around the house. "You guys cleaned the kitchen and living room? You didn't need to do that."

"Hmph, Alice must've done everything." Serah looked at Alice with a pride.

However, a flash of surprise came to her eyes as she noticed that Alice had already grown head-taller than her, and seemed more mature-looking like a proper young woman. She hadn't noticed it before, but now did, for some odd reason, and felt like Alice was becoming old enough to sprout her wings and fly away from her nest.

"Actually, Adam helped me." Alice said with a smile.

While Serah ignored that, John nodded as response.

After taking off their shoes and jackets, they wanted to take their bags back to their room as they didn't want to leave them by the front door.

As they headed upstairs, Adam kissed Alice on the cheek, winked, and also headed upstairs.

"Stupid!" Alice playfully pushed him on the back, her cheeks swelling into a pout. 'How

reckless!'

If Serah and John had turned their heads around at that moment, they would've seen them

kissing!

She felt like Adam enjoyed seeing her panic and nervous.

At the upstairs, as Serah and John opened the door to their room, Adam walked past them and

said.

"If you need something from me, just send a message."

"You're going back there?" Serah asked with a frown. "You don't take even a day break, do

you?"

"I already did." Adam smiled.

"Hmph," Serah crossed her arms and said. "Remember, you'll need to start paying the rent again from next month onward!"

"I remember." Adam, with a chuckle, went to his room and closed the bronze VR pod's lid.

He then walked over to his wardrobe, looking like he was putting on some new clothes, but instead he walked through it and entered a hidden elevator there.

With a press of a button, he arrived at the hidden basement layer and climbed inside his VR

pod.

[Welcome back, master]

Hera's robotic, feminine voice sounded.

"Keep them safe, Hera." Adam said and pressed a button by the VR pod.

[I will]

Then, as the glass lid closed over his VR pod, he pressed another button that immediately

transferred his consciousness into the virtual world.
