Gods' Impact Online

Chapter 174: Bridesmaids?

"…" Victoria stared at Zach without saying anything.

"…" Zach stared back and waited for Victoria to say something

"…" Aria glanced back and forth at Zach and Victoria, but she was shocked and confused too.

"Come on, say something…" Zach groaned.

"What do you want me to say?! Congratulations?!" Victoria exclaimed.

"Well, you can be happy that your ex moved on, and now he is happy with another girl," Zach teased with a grin on his face.

Victoria squinted her eyes with a judging look on her face and asked, "I honestly didn't know you would actually make moves on other girls. But I did expect you to do that since I was the one who started this war by kissing you in front of Aurora that day. However, if you expect me to congratulate you, then that's not happening."

"You are going to be the bridesmaid, by the way," Zach scoffed out loud and said, "You too, Aria."

"Wait…" Aria furrowed her brows and uttered, "You are genuinely serious about this?! I thought you were simply trying to tease Victoria."

"Uhh… I don't think I would joke about a serious matter such as marriage, you know? That's not a joking matter. And besides, if it was truly a joke, then I would have ended it after one remark," Zach said in a solemn voice.

"Wait…" Victoria closed her distance with Zach and asked, "Is that why she didn't come to the dungeon raid today?"

"Kind of… yeah," Zach nodded.

"…" Aria stared at Zach in disbelief and said, "I think I know why Aurora didn't come today and why you are marrying her all of a sudden."

"Oh?" Zach was amused after hearing that. He thought, 'As expected of Aria. She is smart.'

Aria moved her face close to Victoria and whispered something in her ears.

"…" Zach watched Victoria's expression change from a straight to disgusted look on her face.

'What the hell did Aria tell her?!' Zach yelled inwardly.

Victoria shook her head in disbelief and muttered, "I somehow don't doubt that happening."

"But what?!" Zach asked with a curious yet perplexed look on his face.

"You r*ped Aurora didn't you…?" Victoria asked with a disgusted look on her face.

"What the—!" Zach immediately turned to Aria and frowned his face at her. "What's wrong with your mind?!"

"Did I guess it wrong?" Aria wondered with an innocent look on her face. "Because otherwise, I don't see why you would suddenly decide to marry Aurora."

"Listen…" Zach let out a weary sigh and muttered, "I didn't know you think that low of me…"

Aria's face immediately turned pale after hearing that. She grabbed Zach's hand with an anxious look on her face and said, "No, you are wrong! I didn't mean it that way!"

'She is so gullible,' Zach smirked inwardly. However, he was truly hurt that Aria thought he could do something so hideous to Aurora.

"So what is that made you—"

"Vice-captain! Vice-captain!"

Victoria was interrupted by the guild member.

She stood up to see who was yelling her name and asked in a loud voice, "What is it?!"

"It's the ex-couple again!" the player yelled. "They are fighting again!"

"Oh, come on!" Victoria groaned loudly and rushed the couple who was fighting, leaving Aria and Zach alone to stare at each other.

Aria and Zach could hear Victoria yelling in the distance. Some of her words were:

"If I see you or anyone fighting again, I will ask them to fight in the frontlines regardless of their level, and I wouldn't save them even if they are about to die!"

"Heh!" Zach snorted." Sadist as always."

Aria raised her brows in amusement and murmured, "I almost forgot that you like rude and arrogant girls."

"What about you?" Zach asked with a knowing look on his face.

"What… do you mean? Are you perhaps asking what type of boys I like?" Aria wondered.

"I am curious about your taste in men, but I want to know what type of girl you consider yourself as?"

"I think… I am kind…? I have never hated anyone in my life, nor have I ever tried to take revenge or blamed anyone for my suffering," Aria responded in a calm voice.

"But you were rude and arrogant at our first meeting," Zach remarked. "Although I was too."

"Don't remind me of that…" Aria sighed and said, "It was my first time meeting a human after thousands of years. Also, I hated humans before that because they had killed my sister. I knew I shouldn't have, but I just did that to keep myself distracted from reality. I didn't want to admit that I was betrayed and left alone by the people I thought of as my children. I was sad and lonely. It was as though—"

Before Aria could get any more sentimental, Zach brought her back to reality by kissing her on the lips. And as soon as their lips parted, Zach kissed her again, but this time, he gave her a longer and deeper kiss.

Aria couldn't do anything but enjoy the pleasure of a kiss.

After the kiss, Zach looked at Aria and said with a grin on his face: "You don't look angry even when I kiss you without your permission."

Aria savored the flavor of the kiss in her mouth before saying, "I have gotten used to it. Besides, it's not like I can stop you. You are my master, and I can't defy your orders."

"So…" Zach looked at Aria from the corner of his eyes and asked, "You are going to get revenge-kiss me, right?"

Aria's face flushed a little, but she managed to hold her embarrassment. She stared at Zach for a while and waited for the perfect chance to kiss him back.

After a few seconds, when Zach wasn't paying attention to Aria, she moved forward to kiss Zach, but she stopped when she heard footsteps approaching them.

A few seconds later, two guild members (male and female) came with Victoria and sat beside Zach. They were the ex-couple who were fighting.
