Rishikesh, Uttarakhand.
[The Fla of Wars is huffing in anger.]
Under the starry sky, filled with multicolored stars that sprinkled dim light upon the world, making it so that it never goes completely dark, sat a girl with coffee-colored hair sitting on a piece of debris, staring up at the sky with a thoughtful look, when a notification flashed in front of her eyes.
Her bright orange eyes shone with intrigue as she saw the ssage of her contracted goddess.
She was already used to this god's antics, as she knew what kind of goddess she had contracted with.
"What got you all grumpy, dear goddess?"
The girl questioned with a smile, respect audible in her voice as she broke out from her thoughts about a certain soone with cold golden eyes.
[The Fla of Wars is saying that he was arrogant.]
The girl, Ridha Negi, frowned at her goddess's words.
"He? Who are you talk—wait!"
She didn't understand what the goddess was talking about before sothing clicked in her mind.
Her eyes quivered as she thought about that possibility.
"A-Are you saying t-that you t him?"
Her lips trembled as she gulped in a mouthful of saliva, nervousness gripping her heart.
The one she was talking about was, of course, Alex, the only person who stepped forward when she was going to face sothing she never imagined, even in the worst of her nightmares.
It was a heart-wrenching experience for her, a situation where she just wanted to die, but the creatures that had set their eyes on her—the repulsive creatures whose looks alone were enough to make her nauseous—wouldn't even let her do that.
Those were the worst monts of her life as she scread, pleaded, and begged for soone and anyone to save her.
She didn't even know how many tis she had desperately tried to call for soone's help, but none of the people standing in the group had the courage to co forward.
All of them just stared at her with pity and excitent in her eyes.
n just wanted her clothes to be torn apart so they could get a nice view of her body, while won, who knew how she was feeling, just stood in their spots with sorrowful looks on their faces.
She prayed to every god she knew of, desperately clinging to the hope that maybe, just maybe, even if it is not many, even if it is just one person, they would co forward to help her.
*Tear*
Even after her clothes were getting torn apart and her tears rolled down her cheeks without stopping, she still stared at the crowd with eyes filled with whatever hope she had.
'J-Just save . Soone. Anyone. I-I will do anything for you.
I w-will turn into your most devoted s-slave.
*Hic* J-Just save …'
These were her thoughts; she just wanted to be saved at that ti.
And it was then that she saw him...
Each step was as fast as lightning; it was as if he was of a different class; she couldn't even see much of him, but she could still perceive his blood-red hair and cold golden eyes—sothing that sent chills down her spine.
It was Alex, soone who had moved because of the system's warning, but for Ridha it was different; he beca her everything the mont she saw him.
His eyes, although cold, still held so humanity within, and most of all, his gaze didn't have the slightest hint of lust within.
His hauntingly handso face only elevated her feelings for him.
It was love at first sight, and Alex, at that mont, was her prince charming, but before she could even get a good look at his face, her world darkened; the effect of poison and constant pressure from the situation finally took a toll on her body.
By the ti she woke up, she had changed a lot; her eyes, which used to have a haughty and entitled look within them, had changed, turning as calm as a lake.
She had matured after a single event.
In her dream, she had seen the scene play out many tis, but each ti, she would have a single guy rushing to save her.
She couldn't even imagine the trembling bastards from the crowd being brave enough to co forward; they now looked like a bunch of inferior beings to her.
There was only one person among the n she would truly give herself up to now, and it was her prince charming, her savior, Alex Matthew.
[The Fla of Wars is nodding her head.]
The new notification, however, broke Ridha out of her thoughts, but the contents of the ssage caused her body to tremble as her eyes widened in elation.
[The Fla of Wars is saying that he seems strong but he is conceited.]
Ridha, who was trying to control her excitent about the fact that she could finally et him, frowned the mont she heard her goddess words, her eyes turning cold.
"Please do not speak bad of him."
She muttered with a frown, her voice as frosty as she could make.
She would be fine with anything; you can curse her, you can try to attack her, you can have vulgar thoughts about her; she wouldn't even look at you. She would counter, only if she thinks it is necessary, though.
But say one word about the one she had decided to give her life for, and you would have the sa ending as the guys who had their blood pooling around her feet as their bodies, all scorched up and torn apart, lay on the ground.
Their bodies seed like they had been burned under the heat for just the amount of ti for their skins to turn into nothingness, leaving only flesh and bones that leaked blood—a lot of blood.
[The Fla of Wars is speechlessly looking at you.]
The goddess, however, didn't take her words lying down.
[The Fla of Wars is glaring at you.]
[The Fla of Wars is saying that she would not forgive another discretion like this one.]
*Rumble*
The sky rumbled as if trying to warm Ridha, and her eyes widened in horror, finally realizing her mistake.
"I-I apologize, dear goddess; i-it's just that I couldn't control my emotions."
She stamred as she realized the gravity of the situation.
Her goddess was easygoing and forgiving, not really minding the formalities like other gods, but she was a goddess nonetheless.
A god would never like their follower talking back to them or trying to reprimand them.
[The Fla of Wars is staring at you in silence.]
Ridha kept her head bowed, as she really didn't an to do that; it was just that Alex had turned a bit too important for her, and she just couldn't stand for anything spoken against him.
[The Fla of Wars is sighed in resignation.]
[The Fla of Wars is saying that it was her fault for getting into a contract with a love-struck girl.]
Ridha, who saw that ssage, widened her eyes as she exclaid.
"I-I'm not a love-struck girl!"
For the first ti, there was a hint of panic on her calm face, along with a soft rosy blush on her cheeks.
The goddess wasn't serious with her last words; Ridha knew it as well, and that was why her reactions turned out like this.
She could already feel her goddess staring down at her with a mocking light in her eyes.
