Chapter 42 - A Husband's New Struggle!
"Is Xaya back?"
The Sixth Death God was already swallowed up by his work, his pen moving so fast it couldn't be seen by the naked eye. The pen was leaving pale green trails as he kept writing. This was naturally the divine treasure that was inherited after he took the seat.
Thanks to this pen, the death god was dealing with the souls of the dead.
However, the one to disturb him this time was his wife. Thus, Death God yet again put his work aside and locked his eyes on the lady.
"She is back with her husband."
"Wait... Did you kill her husband?"
"Otherwise, how could I bring her back for the punishment? She has taken the last spot as the living being in the death castle, so if I took another living being, then I would need to explain and explain... Look at my desk."
"Idiot! I am sure you didn't even explain things and just killed him!"
"Yes."
The Death God confirmed, then his eyes went back to the desk. His pen yet again let out pale green light, but only for a little. The reason for that was his wife who had slapped him. Her angry eyes were filled with affection for Xaya!
She had to punish her husband for hurting her young and naive heart!
A few more slaps rang out throughout the room, then the lady settled next to her husband. She also took out a similar pen and decided to help the death god. Both of them were scrabbling on the desk in silence.
"Don't reduce Xaya's work."
"She is the youngest, so you should go easy on her."
Other than Xaya, there are eleven more people who can stay in the death castle. Of course, this is excluding The Death God's wife and his family. Those people are all gathered by him from different origins.
Xaya was also brought up here by Sixth Death God. He actually found her abandoned by her parents in one of the high floors in the world pillar. The small cub couldn't even take human form back then.
He taught her as much as he could, but the duties were more important. And the reason for Xaya to be here was naturally to lessen the burden of the death god! However, by that time, the death god already had his wife.
So when she went lenient on Xaya and treated her like a daughter, The Sixth Death God developed some fatherly like feelings too. He had been doing his best to ignore those, but the fact that he let Xaya go to the heavenly palace exposes a lot here.
Though his education was not that great nonetheless. His time was also limited, and so his wife. However, The Sixth Death God was more or less content with Xaya's growth... Little did he know that his 'daughter' can be really aggressive sometimes!
"How was he?"
"As stupid as Xaya."
"Haha~~ Before he ends his tasks, I will meet him, okay?"
"Whatever."

Kyoya woke up.
He was looking at the dark green sky in a daze... However, within his mind, the image of Xaya's naked body lingered vividly... Just like the Sixth Death God had said, Kyoya's mind was full of their hot and lewd time.
His cheeks blushed and he raised his body to shake off this feeling.
'I died with V-card, but what is it? This is what happens when you die or is it the death god's privilege? I am going to be tortured or what?'
A lot of questions arose within Kyoya's mind then. He couldn't think of Xaya as she was nowhere to be seen. However, due to his situation, Kyoya got some hopes for resurrection or at least a second chance to meet his wife!
That's why, with the lust conquered, Kyoya stood up and looked around the vicinity. The sky was dark green, but around him, the garden unfolded. Nature was soaked in the soul like green particles brushed by the death realm's wind.
The souls or any living beings were likewise absent and looking at the hedge, Kyoya wondered if he is going to see the souls or death monsters waiting for his reveal. The fantasy can not be underestimated! What if the death god is going to toy with him now?
Is he a friend or enemy of Xaya by the way?
'The questions won't answer themselves... I have to go around...'
The husband decided so. But as he looked at his hand, he noticed that it was transparent... He was truly a mere soul now and this sight shook his heart greatly... After rubbing his fingers and feeling somewhat solid touch, Kyoya decided to peek at what lies behind the hedge.
"..."
It was the sight of souls gathering in front of the lady behind the desk... She was doing her work outside clad in clothes which resembled the secretary clothes of big bosses! The lady had unique pent glittering with a pale green light that was tapping the paper without a rest.
The souls were that of wisps. They were like round balls with stretched tails beneath them... Their colors were ranging from mostly white to blue and red. The white color was dominating the row though.
'Shit!'
[Your sharp eye has gotten a new 'see-through' effect.]
[Keep sealing your lust and wait for more special effects!]
[Good luck!]
'What is this?!'
What's wrong with his game system? How could his sharp eye turn into such a deadly ability? His eyes hovered on the lady because she was the only one looking like a real person! The beauty was surely not the reason nor his lust.
Kyoya's lust had been sealed after all!
But the system utilized its powers on its own, then crafted a new effect that made the lady's white shirt disappear. Lack of the shirt exposed her back to Kyoya which in her straight position could allure even the man who was sealing his lust for his wife!
'I shouldn't look!'
"You are finally awake, sleepyhead."
"Ugh, yes... I am..."
The lady gestured Kyoya to come closer. He had to follow her order and so, his eyes could see exactly what kind of bra she wears! It was luckily full cup bra, but the husband was far from feeling lucky...
[She likes your eyes!]
'Bullshit!'
Ding!
Quest!
[Keep looking at the lady in front of you!
- Following rewards!
- 60 minutes of staring - bra no longer can interrupt your sharp eyes!
- 120 minutes of staring - the panties no longer can interrupt your sharp eyes!]
'What the fuck is this quest?!'
[You have looked at the lady for one minute already!]
'Shit!'
