Chapter 173: Confession? (2)



Chapter 173: Confession? (2)

She heard clearly what he had said. She knew she should not feel irritated by this word of a child, but for some reason, whenever he mentioned it, she just wanted to beat him.

'This bastard didn't even know even powerhouses of different races would be jealous of what this human child has'

Yet, this shameless kid still hadn't realized that he was the definition of a walking cheat.

She had watched all his memories, and she knew almost as much as him regarding his culture—she still remembered watching those entertaining novels and manga in his memories that kept her entertained for the first few months, but after they were finished, she got bored.

And more importantly, sometimes watching those things, she even felt irritated at how far they were from actual reality, though they kept her entertained nonetheless.

'I had thought I would be able to watch this child's life full of action and thrillers.'

Her voice became grim as she continued talking to herself.

'But more than action, this shameless kid shows me only romance, but that was not the problem as it also felt entertaining to watch.'

Her voice became angry as she continued.

'However, this menace has unknowingly ordered me not to watch the main hot and steamy stuff which I most look forward to, and I can't even listen to him about it due to this cursed contract I'm bound to.'

'Ahhhh! At least let me see the actual good part.'

She noticed Ava in front of him. She didn't know if he had such good luck or if the women he met were just as dumb as him.

'Tsk, lucky bastard! Getting a girl with S rank Death element talent this easily. At least get rejected by the girl first—get humiliated and win her over on the 10th try after saving her from a terrifying monster—make it more entertaining for me to watch—bastard!'

Her focus was on his figure on the screen, on which she was watching everything happening outside in his soul realm, which was quite small for her. But as a soul, she had no problem staying in this cramped place.

'Yeah, it looks like this shameless child is living life on easy mode.'

But then she remembered something as she looked in a certain direction. A knowing smile appeared on her face, hidden in darkness.

'At least I have something to look forward to.'

Aiden didn't think twice and quickly and gently grabbed both of Ava's hands as she stared at the ground with a blush on her face.

Ava, feeling his hands holding hers gently, confirmed her earlier suspicion—she must be the reason he gave all the red cores to everyone, so she would be much safer.

'I know I shouldn't feel happy about this, knowing this isn't the best decision considering he wants to be a great leader like Aunt May, but I can't help but feel warm inside and let him do what he wants, knowing he's doing all this for me.'

She had started calling the general "Aunt" as she had already considered herself Aiden's future wife, so it was only natural for her to call the general "Aunt" as well.

She didn't move and even stepped a little closer so she could feel him closer to her while he held her hands.

"I knew I couldn't hide things from you, Ava."

Alicia, only after hearing the first sentence coming out of his mouth, stared at him speechlessly. She knew her brother enough to tell that the main reason he decided to share the red cores was because he wanted to harvest even more.

Her confidence that Ava wouldn't join them in their bed tonight started to wane a little, seeing how naturally her brother was acting.

'Ugh! Why is he so good at doing these kinds of things?'

She knew the answer and knew she also deserved some credit for making her innocent little brother like this, which irritated her even more.

'Yeah, those romance novels—yeah, they're at fault. If I find any of those ever again, I'm going to burn them to ashes.'

Alicia thought the only reason her brother was like this was because she had given him those cursed novels where the protagonist strayed from the path and fell in love with someone else, without seeing his own sister.

She felt some relief knowing at least her brother was not like that, but she had become sworn enemies with those cursed books.

With irritation written on her face, she watched her little brother act to coax Ava. However, she wasn't going to interfere, knowing she had already given him permission to do what he wanted. And more importantly, she still remembered how she had mocked him earlier.

It would be against her pride to interfere now, but she still prayed in her heart and hoped that Ava wouldn't join them, at least today.

Ava, hearing his words about not hiding things from her, realized that everything she had thought earlier was correct. She didn't know what to do.

She liked how he was doing things for her; it warmed her heart and made her realize even more that Aiden was really in love with her. But that didn't mean she wasn't against his decision—she only wanted what was best for him.

She said in a meek voice, as everything felt like a dream to her because of how openly Aiden was showing his attraction toward her.

"But I—"

Before she could continue, Aiden cut her off and said in a resolute voice, tightening his grip on her hands.

"There is no 'but,' Ava. I told you to accept this, as your safety is much more important to me than these stones."

Aiden put even more emotion into his voice and continued.

'I am so cringe; I sound like those protagonists of romance novels my sister has given me to read.'

'Still, I don't mind acting like this when it's clearly working on her.'

While this was all his honest feeling, saying it out loud still felt embarrassing to him.

"I don't know what I would do if I ever saw you get hurt, so accept them without any questions, Ava."

"I'm not giving you an order. I just wanted to know one thing honestly."

"Are you going to accept your own feelings, Ava?"

Ava, hearing everything he was saying to her, only needed the first line he had said—that her safety was much more important to him than stones—and her heart completely melted away, feeling like it was his confession to her.

'I am now sure he is in love with me.'

A brilliant smile blossomed on her cute face, which no one could see as she looked at the ground.

Upon hearing him say that he didn't know what he would do if he ever saw her get hurt, she couldn't tell how happy she was feeling at that moment, but one thing was clear in her mind.

'My love~'

'My love~'

'My love~'

There was a heart in her eyes as she thought only of him at that moment. She didn't care about leadership now, as she could handle that another way; she didn't think she had the will to reject him after hearing everything.

She even thought for a second about confessing her feelings for him right then without caring about anything, but she stopped herself.

But when she heard the next words coming out of his mouth, her mind went blank.
