章 51: [Bonus chapter] Chapter 50- Getting Ready
Zach entered his room and closed the door behind him. He moved all his items into his inventory even though there was no need to since he wouldn't be able to use his sword or dagger because he was already equipping the gloves as his weapon.
He let out a loud sigh and muttered, "I totally forgot about that." After talking with Aurora a while ago, Zach realized something.
He remembered how hard it was for him to leave Aurora behind, even though she could have ascended after a week once she had cultivated enough physique points.
Zach realized it wasn't a one-time experience. Unlike all the other players who needed to cultivate their physique and reach a certain level to ascend to the higher realms, Zach only needed to meet the level requirements as his physique was already maxed.
The gods made it easy to level up, but it was hard to cultivate physique. While Zach had a significant advantage in the game, others didn't, and that included Aurora too.
Zach would have to wait for Aurora to meet the requirements whenever he ascended. He had two options; one was to leave Aurora behind and let her ascend at her own pace, and the second was to ascend with her.
However, no matter what option he chose, he would have to worry about the same thing when he would ascend again.
"Sons of bitches…" Zach muttered in frustration.
Zach took a deep breath and calmed himself down, but that didn't work. So he imagined a pouting face of Aurora, and that helped him calm down.
He rubbed his hand on his face and muttered, "You can't fall in love with every girl you meet, Zach."
Zach had come to the realization that he might be in love with Aurora, but given his past relationships, he wasn't certain.
"It is obvious that Aurora loves me, but my words are still valid," Zach asserted. "I am the first boy she has talked to, so she might be mixing liking for loving. But if she is truly in love with me… then I have no other choice but to accept her feelings."
'How can I miss this chance? She is so cute and childish. Her reactions are so funny, and her personality is totally my type; wild and arrogant.' Zach let out a soft chuckle after remembering his ex-girlfriend.
"It's about time I should move on. We are probably never going to see each other again."
Zach was ready to move on, but he still had lingering feelings that made him a little scared of starting a new relationship. The main problem was that Aurora was a princess, and he was a commoner of a democratic country. There were so many barriers between them, and the main one was Gods' impact.
However, that barrier was the reason they met and got close to each other, maybe even a happy relationship in the future? But for how long?
"If she truly loves me, then I can't stop her from loving me. But If she wants to love me, then she has to love everything about me. She probably thinks I am a normal teenager who got stuck in the game. She doesn't know that I am a first-class S-hole who would do anything to get what he wants. She doesn't know that I can crush anything that stands in my way. If she truly wants to be with me, then she has to know what I am; she has to know my true face."
However, he was afraid of rejection. Just like how there was a status barrier between Aurora and Zach, there was also a race barrier. Zach wasn't a human, nor any of his family members were.
"But well…" Zach smirked and uttered, "this is a good chance to make her like me. If there are no barriers between us, we can be together."
'If someone opposes our relationship, let's say her King father, I can annihilate his entire kingdom. If there is no kingdom, there will be no king or royals, so Aurora wouldn't be a princess."
Zach left the room while muttering, 'I will make her my queen.'
He might be turning into an obsessive lover, even though they weren't in a relationship yet.
Zach was used to hiding his feelings and acting normal even in the hardest circumstances, which was his main strong point for his thrive to survive.
When he got out of his room, he found Aurora waiting for him in the living room.
"Are you ready?" he asked.
Aurora quietly nodded in reply.
They left the house and made their way to the restaurant to eat breakfast. Then, they talked with other players and gained as much information as possible about the first realm.
"What should we do now?" Aurora asked with a curious yet calm look on her face.
"There is nothing interesting in this town. We should move to the main capital. That's where we will make progress," Zach asserted.
"But what about our house? We can't teleport, you know?"
"Can't you exchange the houses again?"
Aurora shook her head and said, "There is a time limit before I can exchange again."
"How many days?"
"Fifteen."
Zach placed his hand on his chin and pondered for a while: 'We have already spent ten days doing nothing. I don't think we can waste more time.'
Zach nudged Aurora and said, "We will stay at the inn for three days. And besides, we have many towns to pass to reach the capital. We might as well level up while traveling."
Zach and Aurora decided to travel to the capital, which was 15 hours walk and 10 hours by carriage.
