Capítulo 18: Discussion
Olivia felt her heart stop while Axel continued to stare. He opened his mouth, trying to say something when he froze. Olivia looked extremely pale while tears gathered in her eyes, threatening to spill.
Axel felt a major dose of anxiety kick in when he suddenly remembered what he said and how it could've been taken. He shot up like a spring and gripped Olivia's hands firmly. He looked into her eyes with a gently smile and said, "Olivia, I didn't mean I'm leaving you. I mean, we're already a couple. I meant that I'm leaving to continue my training as well as a couple… personal tasks I have to complete."
The tears stopped as Olivia bitterly thought, 'What's wrong with me? I never used to cry but now? I cry at every little thing. Well, only if it involves Axel.' She cleared her throat with a cough and said, "Well… I… I DON'T mind but… why can't I go with you? I could be a big help, you know?"
Axel closed his eyes as if he was in deep thought and mentally began talking to the system. He said, "System, can Olivia come with me to another world."
As always, the system replied quickly. It said, [No, but there are functions that you can gain to bring others to and from other worlds.]
"Do I have that function or can I unlock it?" Said Axel once he heard the systems reply.
[No. You don't have it and you haven't met the conditions to unlock it.]
Axel thought for a little before opening his eyes. He wryly smiled at her and said, "I don't think I can. It's a place only I can enter… for now."
"Hmm… Fine, you can go. Just remember, you have to come back in two weeks. That's when the exam ends. I'll pull a couple strings and try get you enrolled." Said Olivia. She already had a plan for getting him enrolled, however, everything she's thought of could be for naught if the target was missing.
Axel felt warm from her care towards him and promised to be back before the due date. The couple continued to rest near the campfire. Suddenly, Olivia twitched as she said, "Hey Axel."
"Yes?" Said Axel, completely unaware of Olivia's changing tone.
"I'm gonna say this now, I don't mind if you have more than one girlfriend…" Said Olivia. Axel could feel his heart stop as he waited.
Seeing that she captured his attention, she smiled and continued. She said, "However, your gonna have to make a couple promises."
Axel watched her as she held up one finger and said, "First, you'll treat everyone the same. It won't matter if you have 3 or 13, you only have to love everyone the same."
A second finger went up as she continued, "Second, you have to be able to protect us."
She thought for a short while before raising her third finger. She said, "Third, you have to tell them you have a harem. It won't be fair if you suddenly get together with a girl and she only later finds out you have others."
A fourth finger rose as she said, "Fourth, trust us. I can tell, you have stuff your hiding and I respect that you don't want to talk about it. But, I'd like it if you trusted me more. I mean, getting your name was a huge hassle and in the end, I had to give you my virginity."
Olivia smirked as her cheeks dyed red. Axel's cheek were similarly dyed red as he wryly smiled and said, "Sorry for being difficult."
The smirk on her suddenly transformed into a gently smile as she said, "It's fine. Something must of happened that made it difficult for you to trust others. I'm not saying, 'Tell me all your secrets!' I'm saying to trust me more."
Lastly, the fifth finger went up as she looked him dead in the eyes and said, "Fifth and final. No matter what, I get to be first wife."
Axel froze as the word, 'Wife', echoed in his mind over and over again. Sweat started to form on his brow as Olivia said, "I don't mean we're getting married. I mean that I get to be 'first'."
With the matter clarified, Axel sighed in relief as he relaxed into his seat. He stared at the ground for a couple seconds before slowly looking towards Olivia. He cleared his throat, nodded and said, "I'll try. Also, you are and will always be, my first."
A sweet smile appeared on Olivia's face for a split second before disappearing. She shook her head and said, "Good enough."
Now that discussions were finished, Axel stood up to prepare some food. He cooked a large amount of food which was quickly devoured by everyone. After resting for awhile, Axel delievered a weak and tired Olivia to her tent before calling Stella over to talk.
He didn't mess around and got straight to the point. He explained that early morning tomorrow, the two of them were gonna travel to a new world. Axel had no doubt in his mind that he could take Stella with him as he secretly asked the system about it when he was cooking. The reply he got was, [Yes, you can take her. You can take any creature you bind with taming magic.]
Axel slowly made his way to Olivia's tent to sleep. After getting changed, he laid next to an already sleeping Olivia. His eyes slowly began to close as he quietly muttered, "Tomorrow… I'll be traveling to another world… I can't wait…"
Once his eyes shut, a smile filled with excitement appeared on his face as he slept.
