Reborn as an Evolving Space Monster: Harem Of Otherworldly Beauties-Chapter 379: Sharing A Room

"Man, fuck this..." Nolan grumbled.

The spaceship’s path was clear, and there were plenty of sensors and scanning systems allowing the Navigator to leave his post for a bit.

"Whose idea was it to let a woman from Wor cook?" He muttered while standing in the ship’s tiny kitchen area, fixing himself a new meal. "What the hell, seriously? I’m all for different cultures, equality, and all, but you need to keep your strengths and weaknesses in mind..."

The lights in the hallway had died down, and all doors were closed.

’Night’ had fallen inside the spaceship.

The sounds coming from Tina’s room made her preferred nocturnal activity obvious.

"Hell, yeah! 1000 Experience Points, let’s goo!"

Gina’s room was further away, and she wasn’t making as much noise.

Cero couldn’t tell what she was doing, not that he really cared or even tried to eavesdrop.

’...’

After he had graciously and selflessly let Roka eat her fill, she had walked out to wash the cutlery and tray. Cero had used the opportunity to get into more comfortable clothes, as the uniform issued by Wor’s government was incredibly uncomfortable.

’Plus, I’m still used to being naked most of the time.’ Cero shrugged. ’Pants, I can deal with... The rest, I’m really not used to anymore.’

Nevertheless, it was important to keep clothes on, as it would be a shame to get assaulted by Gina or Tina, who would no doubt use his lack of clothing to excuse their actions under the guise of ’He was asking for it’.

They had already thrown him a few glances, and those glances were, clearly, only going to multiply in numbers and intensity during the weeks that the mission would take.

Cero told himself that he would keep it in his pants, for Roka’s sake.

He had already fucked her mother, and going for her bullies on top of that would just be... Evil and demonic.

’Sigh...’

There’s only so much NTR a girl can take after all.

"Ah..." Roka murmured, having come back into the room just as Cero was putting on a shirt. "Sorry, " Her gaze moved repeatedly between him and the door behind her. "Do you want me to...?"

"No, it’s alright." He shrugged. "Already changed."

"Okay." She nodded, pursing her lips, and stepped into the room.

Roka hovered around her bed and baggage for a bit.

"Uh..." Cero scratched his head. "Do you want me to...?" He pointed at the door with his thumb.

"No, it’s alright." She answered hurriedly while shaking her head before taking a folded change of clothes out of her baggage.

’What do you mean it’s alright?’ Cero thought to himself, slightly confused as he sat on his bed.

’What do I mean it’s alright?? Alright to change in front of him??’ Roka remained with her back towards him, hiding her reddening face. ’What the hell? I can’t tell him to go out now, can I? Do I just commit and start changing? Do I turn around? No! But then I would be giving him my ass... I’ll just change quickly! It’s too late now!’

While Roka was internally panicking, Cero noticed how much time she was taking despite having already selected a change of comfy clothes.

’Isn’t she going to change in the shower room?’ It had been his assumption, but doing so hadn’t crossed Roka’s mind. "Do you, uh..." The panic didn’t allow her to think clearly. "Want me to stare at the ceiling? Or the wall next to me?" Cero asked as he lay on his bed.

Their beds were on opposite sides of the room, each stuck to a wall.

"No, it’s alright." Roka’s eyes closed as she uttered the words before thinking them. ’I’m cooked.’

’What do you mean it’s alright?’ Cero thought to himself again.

The awkwardness on both sides was tangible, and Roka was still unable to do anything. Not telling him to step out, nor committing and starting to change.

Cero felt that a joke was necessary to defuse the situation.

"Are you saying that I can watch?" He asked with a dry chuckle, gaze moving across the room to land on her beautiful, curvaceous figure.

Roka couldn’t turn towards him, not when her face was burning so brightly.

The question had, however, reminded her of something.

"Shit..." She cursed under her breath. "Those freaking assholes."

Splitting a room with Cero hadn’t been the plan.

She was supposed to have her own room, where she could dress however she wanted.

"..."

Roka massaged her forehead while staring at the different sets of clothes she had brought.

They weren’t so different. They barely counted as clothes.

It was the most comfortable thing to sleep in, hitting that middle region between warm and cool perfectly, allowing free range of motion while also adding a snuggly, comforting feel.

"Gulp..." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Bodysuits, and nothing else apart from underwear.

Some had long sleeves, others short. Some reached down to the crotch, others all the way down to the ankles.

"What’s up?" Cero asked.

"N-Nothing." Roka answered, simultaneously finding the only answer to the problems at hand.

She hurriedly took her boots off, grabbed the chosen bodysuit, and plunged onto her bed, slipping below the thick blanket.

’That works, I guess.’ He nodded, watching Roka move under her blanket. ’Pretty funny.’ Cero chuckled.

Seconds later,

"Ahhh..." Roka sighed, head emerging from below the blanket. "Finally," Changing under the blanket had been a battle, and she had won. "Phew, I did it." She whispered to herself.

’Uh... Good job.’ Cero thought.

The two were now in more comfortable clothes, on opposite sides of the room, lying on their beds and staring at the ceiling.

Each thought about what to say, but struggled to find anything.

Roka frowned, thinking back to the time when talking to Cero didn’t feel so difficult.

She found herself unable to tell when it was exactly that talking to him had become difficult for her.

’I’m... Not sure I ever found it easy.’ Roka thought, remembering the time right after Cero had joined them, when he would be completely naked, gigantic cock swinging in every direction. ’I shouldn’t be thinking about this!’

Roka tapped the light switch off without meaning to, and Cero activated his Night Vision Skill instinctively.

His head slowly turned on the pillow, and his gaze found her.

"..."

Thermal Vision activated, and the outline of her body became visible under the blanket.

All of a sudden, Cero was brought back to that first night when he had watched her through the vents in a very similar position, and similar clothing.

"..."

Gulp-

Gulp-

The two turned, almost at once, to face the wall by their side.

"G-Good night."

"Y-Yeah, sleep well."

Unfortunately, one of them would turn out unable to sleep well, not with the other next to them.
