God of Tricksters

Theo also felt the surge of happiness in his heart.

Seeing her smile also put a smile on his face. Their eyes soon intertwined with each other.

There were no words exchanged between them, but their heads gradually came closer.

They kissed.

At that moment, Theo felt like he had forgotten everything. This was the first time he took a step forward for himself, not influenced by everything. He wanted this not for revenge, hatred, or pity. He did it because he simply wanted it.

He felt the burden in his heart disappear for a moment.

For Agata, she dared not to think about anything else as she had been waiting for this one moment.

She closed her eyes and enjoyed the warmth and comfort from his arms, wrapping around her waists. It felt heavenly that she wished to stop the time for eternity.

Theo was passionate, and his feelings were clearly transmitted to her. It wasn't because he was forced to make this confession. It was that he had put down the burden that had been stopping him this whole time.

This kiss was something that she would never forget.

Two minutes passed without them realizing it.

Even without a single word, they somehow felt each other's intention and opened their eyes at the same time.

They stopped and pulled away, smiling.

Agata took the initiative to open her mouth. "I think I understand you now'¦ Whether it's because of my blessing or something else, I know your feelings.

"I, too, am a person who has been influenced by my living conditions. People always think of me as an accessory to make them shine, and I believe it's true until I meet you.

"In your eyes, there was nothing more important than your own goal. And my presence to you was just a magnet of problems in the past.

"Finding your brother once became your everything. Then, your parents, the truth, and the War God Family. However, all of them were related to your situation.

"Your brother went missing in the past, so finding him became your everything. Then, after learning about your parents, you sought them to make it clear. After learning the truth, you came to the War God Family.

"Everything was related to your parents. But this time is different'¦ I could feel that you were not forced by the circumstances when you confessed to me. Instead, I felt that you had stopped thinking about your parents and our situation. You just said whatever you felt for the first time.

"I guess I'm grateful to have this blessing too'¦ I don't know why but I'm sure what I said is true." Agata made a wry smile. She remembered that Aphrodite often became cupid. Even though she did it on a whim most of the time, she should have some sort of understanding of others' feelings. And that understanding told her that Theo's confession was genuine.

She never thought she needed it, but she was grateful to Aphrodite when she felt it.

After hearing her words, Theo's smile gradually disappeared. Even though he had confessed to her, the issue still remained. Even if he didn't wish to be separated from her, he needed to.

Agata placed her hand on his cheek to comfort him. "You always think ahead, and I know that you consider my well-being too.

"I already told you in the past, I would respect your decision and wouldn't become someone clingy.

"Even if I couldn't go with you, we could still talk to each other through Skylink. I know that contacting you too much might result in the Griffith Family tracking our conversation, but once a week should be fine, right?

"I admit I was scared of not going with you. Even though no one said this, I think we all know that the reason why I could enter your heart was because I lived with you for the past two years.

"Alea couldn't do it because she was in Russia. Nella could win if not because she lived in the Griffith Family'¦ After all, it was true that your relationship with Nella became good after meeting for several days. If she wasn't your cousin, the result might be different.

"However, that fear was no more. It disappeared not because you confessed to me. Instead, I, too, wished to become someone like you.

"For the first time in my life, I thought to myself, 'I want to stop caring about my environment too. I don't want others' opinions about me to influence me.'

"I should be true to myself. This is what I want to say from the bottom of my heart'¦ I shouldn't fear you'll be taken away from me anymore.

"If you leave me, I will take you back and remind you why I can enter your heart in the first place. If you cheat on me, I'm going to beat that woman up.

"I rejected my blessing because I thought it degraded me as a woman. But not anymore'¦ Aphrodite lost her desire as a Goddess of War because she believed everything could be solved with sexual desire.

"However, I will confront her again and tell her that it's not true. Instead of picking one of them, I will choose both of them this time. To the world, I shall be the strongest woman who will fight anyone in the world. To you, I will be the perfect woman that makes you unable to think of another woman.

"Mark my words, when you return from the US, I will be the only one for you." Agata showed her resolve as she finally confronted her own fear.

This might also be the first step she took for herself'¦ Not because Theo was special or the pressure of people's gazes. She simply had fallen in love with the man before her.

Theo couldn't contain his smile as he looked into her eyes. "You got one thing wrong. You don't need to fear because I'll be loyal to you."

"Hehe." Agata chuckled.

Their faces gradually came closer.

They closed their eyes and had another kiss.
