Chapter 258: Pure Angels

Days passed one by one.

Everyday, Lith used to cultivate, cook, talk with Emilia or his family and friends, and sleep. It was a monotonous routine but it wasn't boring.

In these days, Lith had become much closer to Emilia and they were now more like friends than teacher-student.

Emilia stayed on Lith's floor all these while and her culinary skills were improving as days passed.

To make things more fun and interesting, Emilia decided to not use any magic while cooking and just did it normally. Magic was used only a little bit for minor things.

Emilia had learnt enough from Lith and could now cook things on her own, which was what she was doing. She was making pizza and cookies.

The pizza was in the oven and she was making the dough for the cookie. After mixing everything and having a taste of the dough, she felt something was missing. She tried to recall from her memories what it was that was missing but wasn't able to do so.

'Maybe it's something I missed listening to,' She thought to herself. Emilia then smiled and thought again, 'maybe I should go and ask him.'

She took the bowl containing the cookie dough and walked towards Lith's room.

She entered his bedroom and saw Lith standing in front of a mirror, wearing just a towel and drying his long and wet silver hair.

Emilia stopped in her tracks as she noticed this and said, "umm... I'll come back later."

Lith had noticed her coming into his room and when she said that, he turned around and said, "it's no problem, Miss Emilia. Is something the matter?"

Emilia shook her head and said, "no, no, it's nothing. I'll come back later."

Lith smiled and said, "it's fine, it's fine. Just tell me the matter and I'll try my best to help you. I am not too busy anyway."

Emilia felt bad for intruding like this and wanted to leave to not disturb him, but now looking at him insist like this, she had second guesses on whether she should leave or not.

After a few seconds, she decided that since he's insisting and not too busy, she should ask him the thing she was here for, get done with those things and leave quickly to not disturb him too much.

She walked close to him and showed him the cookie dough and asked him a few questions on it. A few minutes later, she could smell something burning.

"Oh no! Oh no! No! No!" Emilia cried out in alarm and ran towards the kitchen in panic.

"What happened to her?" Lith thought to himself and went behind her to see what was it that was causing her to panic.

When he reached the kitchen, he saw Emilia take out the pizza from the oven. She was holding the hot tray with her bare hands and there was smoke coming from the oven as well as the pizza.

The smell of the burning pizza hit Lith's nose and he realized why she had panicked and ran back here.

Emilia took the burnt pizza out and placed it on the table. To get a better look, Lith walked close to center isle and while doing so, he said,

"Ah, so the pizza got bur-"

Lith's towel got stuck to the edge of the cabinet drawer that was left open by Emilia and it came off.

"Oh my..." Emilia said in surprise and hid her face with her hands. There was a tinge of red on her beautiful face that hid behind her hands.

"Oh crap!" Lith let out a surprise cry when he felt the towel come off and hurriedly tried to wrap it back on his waist.

After finishing, he looked at Emilia and said, "I am so sorry about that. The towel got stuck and then that happened."

Emilia slowly took her hands off and noticing that he had everything wrapped up, she smiled awkwardly and said, "it's fine. I understand it was an accident. Anyway, about the pizza..."

Emilia still had a blush on her cheeks as she tried to change the topic. It didn't go unnoticed by Lith and he could tell that she was purposely playing cool when in reality she wasn't.

His guess was correct, Emilia really was doing this. It was her first time looking at a man's thing and if it were any other angel in her place, they would immediately pass out instead.

Angels were pure beings. They believed in sex only after marriage and before that, they never really saw each other or anyone else nude as a matter of fact. They were very pure and innocent.

Many angels don't even kiss before marriage and the most conservative ones don't even hold hands or touch the person they love. As that's apparently considered sinful to them.

The holy books of the angels had only the thing about not having sex before marriage but there were many loopholes in that statement. But, the angels being angels, that is innocent, gullible, and pure, they simply overreacted to things and made a mountain out of a molehill.

The angels thought that the statement also meant not holding hands or being in physical contact with the person of opposite sex. They thought it was sinful and thus passed down these teachings and even now, there are a lot of angel families who think like this. These were the conservative angels.

There were also some angels who found the loophole in it. These were the ones who did everything with each other except for intercourse. This was completely valid in reality and the angels were allowed to do this.

Some angels found the loophole in the conservative angels' teachings and thought that only touching the person of the opposite sex was not allowed. What these people did was, they had sex with the person of the same sex, which wasn't in accordance with the teachings of the holy books and they fell from grace.

This caused angels to freak out and think that loving someone of the same sex wasn't allowed and things became very complicated and problematic.

There were a lot of other things that happened as well and many more such problems occurred due to that one simple teaching. All the holy books mentioned were that having sex before marriage was sinful but things became too heated in the angel society.

At a certain point in time, the angels were hated by the world for having such a toxic society and teachings whereas in reality things were much simpler.

It was only a few hundred thousand years ago that all misunderstandings were cleared and the angels were deemed as the most innocent, gullible, pure, and holy beings in the world.

The misunderstandings of the angels was cleared by the Angel Kings who made a public appearance in a long while and told people about the things in the holy books and updated them with their teachings.

They taught the angels the correct things and soon, the angel society was back to being normal. Of course, the conservatives still stayed conservatives and bent on their own opinion that everything said by the Angel Kings wasn't really true.

They could say such things as their own teachings were formed by the Angels Kings of the previous generations. These people were disliked by the Angel Society.

All in all, angels really were very pure and Emilia was no exception to this.

She hadn't seen a man's thing up until now.

Though that was the case, she was an experienced lady and she didn't show how embarrassed she was on her face. She played it cool by changing the topic but internally she wasn't cool and her heart was beating crazily while in her mind, it was Lith's thing that she was constantly seeing.
