Gods' Impact Online

Chapter 197: Rewards Distribution

Zach explained how angels watched over the world and reported it to the gods. But when he looked at Victoria's face, it looked like she didn't understand a thing.

SIGH

"Imagine a CCTV camera. People monitor everything through them, right?" 

Victoria nodded and said, "I think I got it."

That example was enough for Victoria to understand what Zach was trying to say. One way or another, the technology could rival magic, but both of them had their own merits and demerits.

The black card had written Zach's name in Cyan color. And below his name, there was something inscribed in golden letters.

"The Lord awaits you."

Zach placed the card back in his inventory and looked at the other things.

'I can give staff to Aurora since she wanted one. I could have given her armor too, but it's full-body armor, and we have already ordered Xie Lua for a cloth-type armor. So….'

"It's useless…" Zach looked at Aria and said, "Do you want the armor?"

Aria shook her head and said, "I don't like wearing them. They are annoying as fuck."

"…"

"Where did she learn to speak like that?" Zach asked with a judging look on his face.

"I heard the guild members talking like that. Apparently, adding 'as fuck' and 'as hell' at the end of the sentence shows deeper emotions, or so the woman had told me when I asked her," Aria responded.

"Bad influence…" Zach was acting like a parent who heard a cuss word from their kid's mouth for the first time. Although, he was Aria's nephew in this case.

Zach then turned to Victoria and asked, "What about you, my friend?"

"You don't… want it…?" Victoria asked to confirm.

"Do I look like a guy who wears armor?" Zach scoffed and said, "They are a pain in the ass."

"I do agree they are annoying and heavy. They also make you sweat a lot, and it gets all itchy and frustrating. But they do give defense and protect us," Victoria asserted with mixed feelings.

Zach opened his menu and sent the armor to Victoria.

"Are you sure?" Victoria asked with a knowing look on her face.

"Umm… since I am giving you a mythical rank armor, why don't you give me something special in return?" Zach grinned and said, "Maybe something soft and warm…"

Victoria hugged Zach and said, "Happy?"

"Not that. Maybe something wet too."

Victoria kissed Zach on the cheek and asked, "Happy?"

Zach tapped on his lips and uttered, "Maybe a little more wet."

Victoria squinted her eyes at Zach and said, "Why don't you say it directly?"

"It's more fun this way," Zach sneered.

Victoria licked her lips and slowly moved her face close to Zach's lips. Then she placed her lips on his lips and kissed him.

At first, Victoria was going to end it with a short and simple kiss by touching their lips. But Zach knew Victoria would do that.

Who knows, how much time and effort would it have taken Zach to get Victoria to agree to kiss him again?

That's why, Zach wasn't losing his chance.

He placed his hand on Victoria's face and kissed her deeper. He stuck his tongue in her mouth and started kissing her passionately. 

Victoria resisted at first, but soon, she gave in to the pleasure and kissed him back.

After a few minutes of kissing, Victoria had completely forgotten about her commitment of staying friends with Zach.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him deep kisses without any care in the world. She had forgotten about her surroundings, and most important of all, Aria.

Aria frowned her face after watching Zach and Victoria kissing like crazy, but she was okay with it.

'I thought I wouldn't feel this stingy feeling in my chest once Zach and I have become lovers. But I guess it's going to take a while for me to get used to it,' Aria thought inwardly.

After a few more minutes, Zach and Victoria finally stopped kissing and stared into each other's eyes with alluring gazes.

It looked as though they were about to jump on each other to kiss again. So Aria stepped forward and stood between them to prevent that.

She glared at Victoria and said, "Aren't you getting too friendly?"

Victoria averted her gaze to the side to avoid eye contact with Aria and Zach before saying, "Zach forced himself on me."

"What the—!" Zach tried to retort, but Aria stopped him.

"So you are saying that you didn't do it because you wanted to, or you felt good, right?" Aria asked with a judging look on her face.

"No…" Victoria stuttered.

"Good to know."

"Huh?" Victoria was utterly confused as to what Aria was trying to convey.

"You feel good when you kiss the person you love, and since you didn't feel good, that proves that you don't love Zach," Aria remarked with a shoulder shrug.

Victoria's face turned pale after hearing that. 

The last thing she wanted anyone to say to her was that she didn't love Zach.

"No!" Victoria hugged Zach and said in a muffled voice: "It felt good. And I kissed him because I was longing for it after seeing you kiss Zach again and again. I kissed him because I love him!"

Zach patted Victoria on the back and shook his head at Aria, who was smirking and laughing out loud.

He placed his hand on Victoria's shoulders and asked, "Did you level up enough?"

Victoria nodded and asked, "What about you and Aria?"

"I leveled up ten even though I was just backing up the guild members. But I did most of the work on the floors after the 75th floor."

"I leveled up a lot, too," Zach nodded.

"I will go back to the guild now and report everything to Elliot. Then, I will come to you," Victoria said with a smile on her face.

"Yeah. I also have to get ready for the wedding."

Zach, Aria, and Victoria left the dungeon.

Author's Note -The dungeon expedition arc ends in the next chapter. Rate it on a scale of 1 to 10. I personally enjoyed the twist on the 75th floor (the reason will be explained in the following chapters). Aria and Victoria got a lot of screen time. And finally! Aria made some moves on Zach and confessed her feelings to him.. Volume two turned out to be longer than I expected it to be. It will end in a few chapters with a banger!
