Gods' Impact Online

An ivory-haired, green-eyed girl was sitting on the throne in a haughty position while pouting.

"You are late, you know?" She said with a soft glare in her eyes.

"You… always wake up around noon…" Zach uttered in a low voice."

"Well, my health is getting better so…"

Zach immediately frowned his face and glanced at Milo, who was still chasing after the butterflies.

"Milo…" he uttered Milo's name to call out to her.

The moment Milo heard her name being called by Zach, she stopped moving and drooped on the ground, seemingly trying to save herself from Zach's scolding. She was so immersed in playing around that she didn't realize Zach had entered the domain.

After seeing Milo covering herself with her wings, Zach raised his brow and asked, "You know that's not going to save you, right?"

[...]

"You had one job…"

[This won't happen again,] Milo said in a calm voice.

"You said the same thing last time, and this is my third time seeing you slacking on your job," Zach remarked.

[I am deeply sorry for that. I have spent thousands of years alone by myself, and I never had company for long. Staying in this domain reminded me of those times, and that made me a little sentimental—]

"Don't pull the sad backstory card," Zach remarked with a sigh. "Everyone here has their own sad backstory. And hey, I am not angry at you, okay?"

[I know. You are disappointed in me.]

"What? No! I am just a little anxious because Aurora was alone, and I don't want her to feel lonely. And thanks to you slacking, I am getting yelled at."

"Hey! I am not yelling at you! I was just asking why you were late!" Aurora quipped. "And to be honest, I knew what you were doing."

Aurora turned to Aria and said, "I bet you two were doing something something."

"I wish…"

"And Zach…" Aurora shot a glance at Zach and uttered, "As expected, I can't get used to you calling this dragon Milo…"

When Aurora first woke up and heard Zach call the dragon as 'Milo', she was angry. 

It was natural for her to get angry because he named the dragon after her maid, who was also her best friend and master, and now she was dead. While Zach's thought was kind, it wasn't mindful.

However, Aurora understood Zach's reasoning. But still, every time she heard the name 'Milo' from Zach's mouth, it reminded Aurora of her maid Milo.

[Master, can I go now?] Milo asked in a calm voice.

"Yeah. Go and play… wait. I still don't understand why you are so playful like a little kid? Aren't you thousands of years old?" Zach asked with a curious look on his face.

[There is no such thing as too old. Age is just a number, and it never defines anything except how old the person is. But my reason might seem invalid to you, so I have another reason too.]

"..."

[When one spends thousands of years alone, they get attached and get happy about small things. Just like one praise from you makes me happy for the entire day.]

"Yeah." Zach shot a glance at Aria and said, "I know someone like that."

Aria furrowed her brows and said, "What do you mean?! I never do such stupid things!"

Zach didn't say anything in response and simply spread his arms to prove that Aria was also a kid from inside who wanted to be spoiled.

Aria immediately dashed at him and hugged him without caring for anything in the world.

Then, Zach jumped and carried Aria in his arms. He landed on the throne and sat beside Aurora.

"How are you feeling?" Zach asked Aurora.

"I still can't move my body normally, and it hurts when I move. But I think I am mostly fine," Aurora replied while looking at her body.

Zach caressed Aurora's face and rubbed his thumb and fingers on the cracks on her face.

"These cracks still haven't disappeared…" Zach muttered. He turned to Aria and asked, "Is this normal?"

"Her cracks should have healed first," Aria stated. "But there might be something else going on with her body."

"Do you know what could have prevented it from healing…?"

Aria pondered for a while to think of a reason from various other reasons. She didn't want to guess wrong, but she wasn't sure about anything.

"I think I know why…" Aurora raised her hand and said, "My body in the real world is also in the same condition, right?"

"Yeah," Zach nodded in response.

"My father might have tried to get me treated, and that might be the reason this is happening to me," Aurora stated and added, "Or so I think."

"Hmm. That's possible…" Aria muttered under her breath, as though she was still pondering on other possibilities.

"But it shouldn't matter much since Zach is feeding you his essence pills. However, let's wait for two more weeks, so you can fully heal, and then we will see if everything is alright."

Aria rested her head on Zach's shoulders and closed her eyes.

Aurora did the same, and then asked, "Zach."

"Hmm?"

"Will we get married once I am fully healed?" Aurora asked curiously.

"Of course, you idiot. I am going to marry you, Aria, Victoria— even though she rejected me once. And once we go to the Sea Realm, I will marry Aquarius and Ruli," Zach asserted confidently with a straight face.

"Your harem is expanding…" Aurora scoffed softly and said, "You forgot one girl."

"Hmm? Who?" Zach wondered with a puzzled look on his face.

"That nun. What was her name again…? Ninia!"

"Oh, come on. She is like a child, you know? So innocent and pure. Besides, I don't even look at her like that!" Zach retorted.

"But weren't you the one who said that you like corrupting innocent girls?" Aria remarked with a grin on her face. Seemingly trying to tease Zach more.

"..."

Zach facepalmed himself after realizing that he couldn't win against Aria and Aurora's team-up.
