Listening to what Keinnayi has just answered, Embra Facepalmed himself. He feels like he went to headbutt to the nearby wall..

*Taking a deep breath ..*

"I didn't know that your life is more miserable than me... Thinking of you living your life without anime or manga or LN ...Oh..dear..? I pity you..,my angel.."

"How  preposterous  ! I don't need pity from you!  More importantly, I don't want to hear that from you and what nonsense are you spurting till now? "

Keinnayi said with slight anger in her tone and wrinkled eyebrows and cold and sharp eyes to Embra.

He feels cold shiver down his back.

"Clam down, my angel, clam down..

first off can you turn on the electricity in the room back.. We gonna need a clean, well-lighted space, if we are going to talk about a true entertainment.."

"Entertainment ..? What ..? It better be good, Mister. [Release]"

The room went back to normal with just a slight wave of her hand..

Embra walk back to his sofa, turn back and urge  Keinnayi to sit. He take the tea cup and refill it with warm tea and get Keinnayi a cup of warm green tea in a trail.

Putting down the trail on the front desk, he walked to nearby bookshelf and pick up a series of books. He put the books down and sat at the opposite side of Keinnayi.

"Now, before you start asking me.. let me ask you a small question.."

Sipping her tea, "hmm..mh whatever you want to ask try it.. I will answer if I can."

"Thank you.. the question is "How did you get the idea to create 'The guiding book'?"

"Well, after I woke up from my slumber, I heard the news that Gods from the West talking about it;  about an item or intelligent artifact , how it can help a mortal to get strong or how it can do miraculous things with just a command and how it can even benefits us gods. So, I just tried and create it based on what I hear but I still don't understand somethings so, it is incomplete and not perfect yet."

"So that's how it is.. well it never late to start reading a manga.. first off try this book and read from this column to that column like this " Saying So, he handed her a book.Draw a certain pattern across the page. You can see on the book cover the title being in English "Demon Slay*er" with beautiful drawings.. 

"Hmm.. I have been meaning to ask a while ago but these picture are realistic.. can a human artist draw like this..? " Caressing the book cover she asked him. 

" I will answer all your questions later, my dear angel. Now please take you time and just read it.. like I have told you.. Oh.. and you can get the refill of tea. I have plenty. Or would you like to enjoy some snack?"

"Well, if you so, I would like a fruit that go well with the tea... But aren't it getting late? It's almost 9. "

Turning her face side, she look towards the clock and ask Embra.

"Wow. You know to look at a clock?"

"Are you making fun of me?" She answered with slightly irritated tone. Seeing see Embra wave his hands and politely and clamly denied saying "No. No. My queen. Please do forgive this rude one. But by all means, do read the book".

"Hmps.. watch your tone. But, curious .. this book doesn't happen to be a manual to create a system right?"

"A what? My beautiful queen, if I really had that you won't even find a trace of me all across universe..for I will be travelling.."

Eyes wide opened and Embra answered her exaggeratingly. 

"..? You know you have been answering and saying unique things till now that I am not catching up.. whatever.. So, what is this book about?"

"It is called manga and it is an imagination of an author with illustrations And just read it you will understand all later.."

"*Stare* ...*sigh* fine.. So, it start from this square right and go like this?"

Tracing her white,slender, beautiful finger across the page she asked him.

 "Yes my queen, you can enjoy this great story from here."

Gusturing , he show her the way to read.. Then, he get up and go to kitchen to search for snacks.

*Time skip 1 hour later*

"That despicable and coward demon.. turning a human to a demon in the middle of the street as a bait, I must give him a lesson he shall not forget.. "

Saying she get up and prepare to go. Embra immediately get up from his sofa to catch her hand and pull to stop her from killing a imaginary demon. Hurriedly he said,

"Wait wait wait... My dear angel, hold your horse.. he is just the work of an author, an imaginary demon.. it doesn't exist in real world.. or in the past..." 

Looking back to watch Embra, she takes deep breath and ease her anger.. Closing her eyes to reopen them again and answered back 

"You are right, it is just a character from a book. Sorry, I lost a bit of my cool back there" .

"No problem my dear angel, I understand your feeling.. I have been in your shoes before."

Smiling widely, he released her hands and reassure her. He thought to himself 

'No problem.. No problem.. you can lose your cool as many time as you want and I will hold you back.. if holding your hands not do the work, I will h..hu..hug you to hold you back. No problem my beautiful angel'.

His face is clam and composed outside reading the manga but inside, he is having his own fantasy and having a nosebleed .. from time to time, he looks towards his hands remembering the soft sensation when he hold her hands and can't help but thought.. 'Her hands are too soft and it is good to hold too..'

He cannot help but smile gently while reading a book. Keinnayi saw his smile but she do not have the time to ask or read his mind to know why .. because she is too occupied with reading the manga and doubting why a demon woman is helping Ten*ro.

*Time skip 1 hour later*

It is almost 11 p.m but the two of them are still reading while drinking tea. They didn't notice that someone is watching them from the corner of the living room. She is a young teen with orange coloured hair flowing like a wave down her back with a amature face. She is wearing like a Valkyrie with flower patterned   armor on her chest, guards in arms and legs; decorated with similar flowery patterns. On her head is a helmet with wings on the sides of the helmet as a decoration. She also have a beautiful saber with rose pattern based guard. 

After some times watching the two of them, she decided to come out and ask Keinnayi who is immersed in reading manga.

"Greetings Lady Dewei, I've waited for you as you ordered but it had been some time. So, I have come to check up on you."

When Embra heard her first time, he starled and look at her strangely and thought 'Where did she come from?'  but when he heard Keinnayi answering her, he became relief.

"Oh. You are here, Sethar. I think I will spend my night here. You can go back and rest".

"I object ,Lady Dewei, do you have any idea how worry we are for you. Please come back to the palace. "

Sethar see Keinnayi answer her without looking at her from her book but she didn't get angry. But, when Keinnayi told her to go back she immediately object. Embra is just sitting in the sideline and looking at the boss and subordinate conversation without interrupting as a gentleman he is.

"No, Sethar, I am not going back. I still want to know what will happen to this fight between the weakest man and strongest girl. So you go back alone."

Hearing her, Embra couldn't help back titled his head to the side.. 'The what and what ?? Is that fight in KMY?.. Wait... where is the pile of book I just put on the desk? ' When he search around he notice the evenly piled up books beside Keinnayi and can't help but shocked. She just finished reading 2 series and is reading the third.

'It is only been 2 hours since she start reading.. wait ..The f*uck! How fast can she read..? I am envious.. '

'but wait didn't she just exclaimed she is gonna kill Mu*an just an hour ago? Isn't that when she is reading the part where Ten*iro meet Mu*an the first time? Something is missing in here.. her reading speed just an hour ago and now...'

While, Embra is entangled in his own thoughts, Sethar feels confused and ask

 "A fight desuka? "

"Yes You should try reading it too. Come here.. try reading from this book. And you read like this way..."

Although she do not get it, Sethar still follow her superior order and go near Keinnayi and try reading the book as her superior instructed.

"Um.., my beautiful angel.. might I ask a .."

"Not now.. Don't disturb me..?"

Hearing her tone, Embra just swallow his questions along with the saliva and continue reading the book in his hand.. He would from time to time refill her tea and get a new one for the young Valkyrie too.. 

Time flow fast and it become the time when the dawn came. The sun goes up and morning sunlight go past the slight opening in the curtains and fill up the room brightly.. Birds are chirping happily and morning sun is fully up. The time is around 6:30 in the morning. Embra weak up from his sleep when the the sunlight fall on his face..

'hm.. is it already morning huh.. What a weird dream I had last night.." *Phwaaa..a* 

He Get up from the sofa and stretch his hands and legs.. 

" Hmm.. what was I reading before I sleep again because I seemed to have dreamt about a b.beau..tiful.. a.ngel.."

When he looks left and right murmuring to himself he found himself staring at the side and found a beautiful knight sleeping on a futon.
