Chapter 105 The End Of A Conquest (Part VI)

[Third Person POV]

News of the invasion was now over. The Hydro nation evacuation notice ended, letting everyone return to their homes.

Everyone knew that the invaders had succeeded in their goal, and many losses had happened with the top rankers dead.

Only a city had been destroyed, which made most people of the Hydro nation sigh in relief, seeing that their homes weren't destroyed.

As for the city that was destroyed, many tears and anger could be seen on their faces. Families, properties, and even a sense of security had been destroyed.

The pain of this tragedy will always live in their life. Time would heal for some, but the scar will always be there.

And for the meeting between the two sides, they were done for now. With the teleportation device between the two worlds active, many people of the world Gaia wanted to see what Earth was like.

[Charles POV]

It was already night. Since the king of this nation had declared the world safe, everyone hiding went back to the surface. We hurriedly left the love hotel and went to Courtney's house.

There was no more reason to stay. Once we leave this world, the rewards will be given before I leave with Nene, Constance, and Linsey. I had to hear Courtney's final answer.

"Courtney, have you made your choice? There's no reason for me to stay any longer."

"Miss Cry Baby is going to come~!"

Without letting Courtney talk, Nene interjects. Even if I had addressed her claims, Nene wasn't letting up.

"..."

Courtney said nothing indecisive about her choice. She thought about it and spoke her thoughts.

"Charles, could I talk to you alone..?"

While looking down, she pointed both her fingers at one another. Nervous, Courtney asked us to be alone.

Without needing to say anything, I grabbed Courtney's hand and left the room far from anyone to hear. We went to the balcony where no one would interrupt us.

"Charles, could I ask you one question..?"

"Go ahead." I gestured for Courtney to speak.

"Why me? We've only met for a day. Do you want my body? My wealth? What do you want from me?"

Woah! I didn't expect Courtney to lash out at me. I could see why Courtney has so much uncertainty. With my power, I could get what most people can't.

"I think you're cute. That's all."

There wasn't much of a need for me to think. If I like someone, I go for it; if I don't, then I won't. It's as simple as that.

"You aren't serious, are you?"

For such a simple answer, Courtney doubted if I was telling the truth. She tried to analyze my face but found nothing.

"Is there anything wrong with that?"

"No... But I can't help but feel satisfied by that answer!"

Girls are complicated. I would have to elaborate more on what I meant by cute. Without any warning, I kissed her aggressively.

Her eyes widened in shock, unexpecting me to do something like this. Courtney showed no rejection of such action meant she was okay with it.

"Has anyone told you the expressions that you make are cute? It makes me want to bully you."please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

After our kiss, I told her my thoughts. She was embarrassed by my comment and had a tint of anger, saying that I wanted to bully her. Calming herself down, she gave me a reply.

"Do you swear you won't leave me?"

That fear of her being abandoned shows when she asks such a question. I had never thought of this. If any of the girls I have a relationship with infuriated me to a degree, there would be a chance that I would leave them.

"If you don't give me a reason not to, then I don't see a reason why I should."

Who knows if I said the correct answer? Courtney could be someone who wanted someone to say that we'll be forever together. I can't promise something like that.

"Couldn't you be more romantic?" Courtney pouted at what I said.

"You say that, but you slept with me on our first meeting day."

She blushed furiously at what I said. She tried to punch me for my tactless answer. Her punches were ineffective, but it was funny to look at.

"If you accept, you definitely won't regret it."

Courtney took a deep breath and smiled at my answer. I was serious about what I said, and she felt the sincerity of my words.

"Do you swear on it?"

I took her lips, confirming what she said. Courtney couldn't ask for more and embraced me tightly. Even without hearing her answer, I knew she had accepted my proposal.

"Could we stay here alone for a little longer..?"

"Sure."

"Courtney, before we leave, do you have anyone you want to say goodbye to?"

"No..."

"Don't worry. Once you go to my world, you will enjoy your stay."

After staying on the balcony, we returned to the other's room. Now that my business was done here, it was time for us to leave.

"Master~!!! You're back~!"

With Courtney on my left, Nene took the remaining right side of my arm. It was great that Courtney had no intention of fighting Nene.

"Is everyone ready to go?"

"Charles. Let me pack up first..."

Courtney wanted to get some of her things before we left. Everyone in the house offered to help, but Courtney wouldn't budge. After half an hour passed, Courtney had finished packing up.

"Let's go to the king's castle. The teleporter is set there."

"I'm sorry..."

Courtney tried to apologize for the time she wasted. We weren't in a hurry, and everyone should be asleep by the time we returned home.

"It's fine. There's no need for us to rush. Now that we're ready let's go."

With that, our small adventure or invasion of Gaia had ended. We went to the castle and immediately left the place.

I'm sure we will return to this world, but not anytime soon. What made me excited was the reward that would be given.
