Chapter 293 291- Talk About Marriage
"What?!" Xie Lua exclaid.
"Aria is my wife."
"Wait, there might be a misunderstanding." Xie Lua laughed awkwardly and said, "We might be talking about a different Aria here."
"No, I am sure we are talking about the sa one. The goddess of death and destruction, right? And Sister of mother."
Xie Lua's face turned pale after hearing that.
"What's wrong with you!" she yelled.
"What do you an?" Zach asked with a confused look on her face.
"You father and son are crazy! One has the goddess of life and prosperity as his wife, and his son has the goddess of death and destruc?ion as his wife! What are you even trying to achieve?!"
"Nothing, actually. And I didn't know that she was technically my aunt when I t her."
"I am not even talking about that. And yes, what would your mother think if she got to know that her son married her sister?"
"In all fairness, Erza and I don't have any connection. And… Erza doesn't know that I am her nephew."
"So you are deceiving her. Actually, scratch all that, how did you even manage to seduce the goddess of death?!"
"I did not seduce her. In fact, it was her who chard with her beauty. And besides, she is not as scary and dangerous as you make her out to be. She is so cute and innocent, just like a maiden in love," Zach uttered with a smile on his face.
"You have got to be kidding ! How can a goddess of death be cute? THat's the best joke I have ever heard in my entire life."
Zach furrowed his brows and said, "Are you insulting her?"
"..."
SIGH!
XIe Lua shook her head and uttered in a low voice: "I should have expected you to get angry. And I apologize for what I said. I personally have never t the goddess of death, so it was wrong for to call her with nas. I was just… worried about you."
"Hmm?" Zach raised his brow with a curious look on his face and asked, "Worried about ? Why?"
"Well…" Xie Lua fidgeted a little and said, "I am your wife, after all."
"Uhh… okay, hold for a second there." Zach recalled all his mories with Xie Lua and said, "I can't recall when I got married to you."
"We didn't yet. But we will soon," she said with a flushed face.
"Uh… why?"
"Huh?"
"I am not saying that you don't look pretty. You look hot... I an, you are the phoenix, co on. Who wouldn't want to marry you? But I am unable to comprehend the reason why we are supposed to get married."
"Wait…" Zach facepald himself and said, "Did father make a stupid promise with you or sothing?"
"No, it was your mother," Xie Lua replied instantly.
"Umm… which one?" Zach asked with a sigh. "I have many mothers, but I prefer Erza as my mother rather than my real mother. So unless it's your promise with Erza, I am not taking it seriously."
"It was… Erza…"
"..." Zach stared dumbfounded at Xie Lua and said, "Okay. We will get married if you want to."
"Are you sure? Just like that?!"
"Well, if mother wants us to marry, then I can't go against her wish. I will put her words on the top and consider them an order."
Xie Lua was jumping with joy. All the ti she t Zach, she wanted to inform him, but she never got a chance.
They had an awkward eting when they t for the first ti, but Xie Lua was still about to tell him. However, Zach got angry when she ntioned his father, so she didn't tell him.
The next ti they t was also a perfect chance to tell him about the marriage since their relationship had improved a lot, and she had also admitted that she was the phoenix who blessed him. However, Aurora was with him, so she felt a little insecure ntioning that in front of her.
Their third eting was a disaster as Zach visited her after the demon invasion. She knew for sure that ntioning anything about the relationship would backfire.
But now, this was the perfect chance since they were already on the topic of marriage.
"Ummm… before we discuss further on this. Can you tell what exactly did mother tell you?" Zach asked with a curious yet calm look on his face.
"She summoned to the real world and asked to take care of you," Xie Lua said with a smile on her face.
"..."
"..."
"What? That's it? I was expecting more."
"Well, she ran out of power, so I…"
"So… what part of that conversion says anything about our marriage?"
"Taking care of you ans marrying you… right?"
"Why would you think that?"
"Huh? Did I misunderstand it?!" Xie Lua panicked.
"Uhh… yes," Zach nodded.
"I see…" All the happiness and the cheerful smile on Xie Lua's face vanished in seconds.
"I apologize for causing a misunderstanding. Please, forget about everything I said," Xie Lua uttered in a disdainful tone.
Zach squinted his eyes and asked, "Do you love ?"
"W-what?! What gave you t-that idea?"
"Well, you are the one who misunderstood what mom was trying to say."
"So w-what? I was only up for the marriage because she asked to. It's n-not like I wanted to marry you or anything," Xie Lua uttered while averting her gaze.
"I didn't know you were a tsundere," Zach laughed out loud and said with a grin on his face, "It's clear as day from the look on your face that you have feelings for ."
"How can you be sure of that?"
"Out of all the blessings I could have activated, only the wrath of phoenix was triggered even though the blessing seal was still intact. And after the seal was removed, it was the phoenix's blessing that had the most impact on ."
"..."
"Aria told that the blessings might react to my emotions, but I didn't understand what she was saying. I never intended to use your blessings. Unless, of course, it was the other way around."
Xie Lua's face flushed red as Zach revealed everything.
"You were thinking about all the ti, and hence, the connection to your blessing increased drastically. But of course, I wasn't sure about that. However, now that you ntioned the marriage, I beg to differ," Zach said with a grin on her face.
