章 72: Gods who could see future

Rio stood outside Artemis's room, his heart pounding with nervousness and fear. He knew he had to face Artemis and confront the truth, but the anticipation of her questions and possible anger made him feel uncertain. He had spent hours preparing answers and excuses, but deep down, he feared that he wouldn't be able to deceive her.

Rio took a moment to compose himself, his mind filled with prepared answers and half-truths. He understood that completely fooling Artemis was a fool's dream, so he had strategized to give her carefully crafted explanations that would divert her attention from certain aspects.

He had crafted elaborate stories about his awakening, intending to explain his unusual method and divert any suspicion. He had anticipated questions about his interactions with Erza and Esme too, ready with responses that would deflect any doubts.
