A soft sigh sigh escaped Zhao Tian's lips and he shook his head helplessly before taking another sip of the tea.
"So... what are your intentions with ?"
Hm? Artoria Evelyne raised an eyebrow upon hearing his words and tilted her head like an innocent lamb "What are my intentions with you?"
Seeing this, Zhao Tian spoke with a light chuckle "Co on... don't act like that. You suddenly appeared out of nowhere and is being so kind to ."
"Because of your presence... I could seal a great deal with Zarek and now, you are offering this ark to a man you just t today."
"All because you want to get a good place in my heart and get brownie points?"
"What could the reason be?"
Smiling, he glanced into her purple eyes "I am not sure if I have anything that I can offer to a woman who is from the Astral Realm."
Artoria Evelyne was quite surprised that he even guessed that she was from the Astral Realm and calmly took a sip of her morning tea.
"Well, I do have so ill intentions."
Hearing this, Zhao Tian frowned slightly and asked "And... what are those?"
With a soft smile gracing her lips, Artoria Evelyne asked "Can I be straightforward?"
Zhao Tian nodded his head "Please be blunt and straightforward."
Nodding her head, Artoria Evelyne muttered in a soft tone "I have fallen for you Tian... it was love at first sight."
What the hell?
Zhao Tian was taken aback to hear this, as obviously, this was not the answer he was expecting to hear.
However, his gaze narrowed and he uttered "I find it hard to believe... you just saw like an hour ago."
Giggling, Artoria Evelyne asked in a teasing tone "Why, Tian? Are you not confident in your looks?"
Zhao Tian shalessly nodded his head and replied "I know I am damn handso and confident in my looks... but to charm a woman from Astral Realm in an instant?"
Artoria Evelyne took a sip of the tea "Oh.. please have more confidence in your looks, Tian. You have such a charming face... I am sure won would flock to you."
Zhao Tian still has doubts because he simply can't believe that she is doing all of this to earn his love.
But then he realized sothing and asked "Maybe... this is not the first ti you have t , do you?"
Artoria Evelyne was surprised and seeing her surprised face, Zhao Tian frowned slightly.
Letting out a sigh, Artoria Evelyne spoke "Ok, you caught . This is not the first ti... I have seen you, Tian."
With a nod, Zhao Tian asked "Tell the details..."
Artoria Evelyne took another sip and began to explain "Well, you see this ark is so good, right? I felt really bad for always keeping this ark idle... so I began to wander around the universe with this ark."
"And when I was traveling like that, I was surprised when I saw a solar system in this galaxy where it was not supposed to be."
"So I got curious and I later realized that this star must have ascended from a middle star."
"And I checked this star..."
"When I entered, I first saw you... slaying so beasts and I was instantly chard by your handso face."

Zhao Tian was surprised but then he realized that he couldn't sense her presence because she was stronger than him and at the sa ti... he felt it was creepy to stalk him like that.
"I continued to watch over you and saw how you effortlessly slain those Astral beasts to save your star."
"Seeing your heroic deeds, I instantly fall in love with you.. You were so cool." She said with a wide smile on her face.
"But since your star has just been ascended... it is vulnerable and can easily be invaded by other forces revolving in the High Star circle."
"How could I let anyone destroy the star my lover fought hard to protect... so I decided that I should help him and his star."
With a shy smile, she spoke "You will surely be creeped out if I suddenly appear in front of you and say 'I love you and I will save your star.' right?'
Zhao Tian nodded his head "Of course, I would be."
Artoria Evelyne shrugged her hands "See? That is why I contacted Ebon Luohe Star and asked them to occupy your star... so that your star would be in safe hands."
"Ahem... and with that, I thought I could appear in a cool ark and impress you."
"But when I saw you, I couldn't hold myself back and hugged you there."
"And after that, you know what happened."
She completed her 'real' story and again began to drink her tea like an innocent child.
Zhao Tian who heard her whole story was actually dumbfounded as that shit actually made sense.
'So... she really loves ?'
'Because there is no way, Ebon Luohe star found our star which is sowhere in the corner of High Star circle within a week and they also seed to fear her when she first appeared.'
'So, it was sure that she was the one who called them.'
'And I don't have anything valuable for a woman from Astral Realm, other than my... physique.'
'But not everyone can see through my Honoured One physique unless they have Astral Constellation physique.'
'The Astral Constellation Physique holders have the power to see through other people's physiques and in my knowledge, only two people have this, Shenyi and Freya's mother.'
'And even if this woman has this Astral Constellation Physique... she is so much stronger than , so if she wants, she can kill or even take from here.'
'So... she really loves ?'
'There is only one way to find out...'
*tak* he gently placed the tea cup and moved close to her, softly uttering her na "Artoria..."
Artoria Evelyne was surprised by his sudden approach and Zhao Tian reached out, gently grasping her delicate waist and pulling her close to him.
Her face instantly beca red in embarrassnt and Zhao Tian glanced down at her lips which were covered by the purple veil.
He didn't bother and leaned forward, placing a soft kiss on her lips over the soft fabric of the veil.
*gasp* Artoria Evelyne was shocked, but she unconsciously closed her eyes, giving in and reciprocating the kiss.
Huh? Zhao Tian was shocked to see this 'So she really..'
He pulled back from the kiss and Artoria Evelyne opened her eyes, a soft smile appearing on her lips "Tian..."
But seeing his shocked face, she quickly realized "Did you just kiss ... to test my feelings?"
Clearly getting annoyed by this, she placed the teacup on the table and pushed him from her.
"Let go of , bastard... you are the worst."
