Chapter 321: New Feelings
Chapter 321: New Feelings
Zach finished eating and went straight to his room after greeting the girls good night.
Ninia was a little surprised as she assumed Zach would spend some time with her and ask about the summit that was going to occur tomorrow.
Since Ninia was the prophet of his religion, she felt entitled to make sure everything went right, and it was also her duty to report every single— even the small— detail to Zach. However, much to her surprise, Zach went straight to his room. But she thought Zach was simply tired.
Still, it wasn’t only Ninia; Victoria was in the same boat as her.
‘He could have at least thanked me for doing so much for him today. I… actually don’t care about the thank you, but I wanted him to praise or pat me…’
Victoria placed her hand on her chest and made a painful expression on her face.
Elina noticed that and asked, “Are you okay, Miss Victoria?
“Huh… ah, yeah,” Victoria replied with a smile on her face. “I am fine. But I think I ate too much. I will rest in my room.”
She then turned to Ninia and said, “Sorry to leave the dishes to you. But if you don’t mind keeping them like this for the night, I will wash them when I wake up in the morning.”
“No, it’s alright. I will—”
DING!
Ninia stopped when she heard the notification sound from Victoria.
Victoria opened her menu to see a message from Zach. She curiously opened it and read inwardly:
[Hey, sorry for leaving like that. I just wanted to be alone for a while. I am going to visit Aurora soon and spend the rest of the night with her. And thank you for today. No, thank you for everything. I wanted to say this earlier, but I didn’t get a chance since we started eating dinner. I promise I will make this up to you. I wasn’t kidding when I said I would make you the happiest girl. I am not the old Zach who was awkward and arrogant… Well, I may still be arrogant sometimes, but you know what I mean. Please, don’t think that I am neglecting you. I don’t want to get dumped again. LoL. But hey, it’s up to you. Even if you dump me again, I will try my best to make you fall in love with me. Jokes aside, I think we have come a long way ever since we first met in school. While that wasn’t the best first encounter one would wish to have with their soul mates, believe me, that wasn’t the worst either. Argh! I filled up the message with the wall of text. I hope you don’t find it boring or skim through it. It may not seem like it, but I wrote this with my utmost feelings. And uhh… also tell Ninia that I will discuss the summit tomorrow if I get time. Okay, I think that’s enough. I have said what I wanted to say. Good night. And don’t forget that I will always love you, now and forever. And you are my first love, and I am glad that you are.]
A happy smile appeared on Victoria’s face as she read that. She couldn’t help but chuckle.
‘He is still bad at texting people, but I have no right to say that. I am the same,’ she thought.
Elina stared at Victoria with a confused look on her face and thought, ‘She is so weird. A while ago, she was about to cry. And now she is smiling like an idiot.’
“Is that… from my Lord…?” Ninia asked reluctantly.
“Ah, yes. He said he would talk to you about the summit tomorrow. And he also said he is planning to spend the night with Aurora,” Victoria informed.
“I see.”
Meanwhile, Zach was rolling on the bed.
“It can’t be… right?” he asked himself as he stopped.
Ninia’s face kept flashing before his eyes.
SIGH!
“There is no helping it. I may have developed some feelings for Ninia. But… she is so innocent and caring. I feel guilty to even look at her that way. Besides, she is the prophet of my religion. I can’t have any special relationship with her.”
“And even after all that, I can’t keep falling in love with every girl I meet and add them to my harem. I shouldn’t forget my main goal to clear this. If I keep fooling around, then who knows, I might come to regret everything one day…” he muttered in a solemn voice.
He sat up on the bed and muttered, “Let’s go visit Aurora now. But first….”
Zach got up and removed all his clothes. Then, he created a medium-sized water ball and splashed it on himself.
He repeated the same process a couple of times until he felt it was enough. Then, he used the Sea’s Wrath to control the water and raised all the dirty water from the ground.
“Hmm…”
He conjured a fireball in his hand and inserted it inside the giant water ball of the dirty water. The fireball slowly burned all the water away, and the fireball’s size grew smaller as it eventually faded now with no trace of a single drop of water or the fireball.
He wore the clothes again and opened the portal to Aria’s domain.
“Let’s go.”
p??d? He entered the portal and glanced around to see Aria creating the essence pill, and Milo was watching her.
“How is it going?” he asked as he walked closer.
“I am 60% done. You will have to take care of the rest,” Aria informed.
“Sure. You have already done enough. And…” Zach glanced at the throne to see Aurora was still sleeping. “I have time to spare until the princess wakes up from her sleep.”
Aria handed the unfinished essence pill to Zach and kissed him on the lips without saying anything.
“….”
She turned around and walked through the portal.
“….”
Zach was also lost in his words because the expression on Aria’s face was something he had never seen before. She was brimming with happiness.
Thus ended the first time of an ancient Goddess and a newbie God.
