Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 675 - 635: I Love You

Descending steps down an enclosed tunnel, Alex and Maria were soon upon the connected doorway of the cruise liner airship. The door was wide, and inside he could smell the most pleasant scents of wood and otherwise clean, cool air. Passing by the doorway where two more stewardesses were stood with their hands cloaked in white gloves bowing and greeting every person who entered.

They entered a lobby, warm and pleasant with colors that pleased the eyes and doorways here and there leading all over.

After asking, Alex and Maria easily found their room; it was a king suite with a king-size bed; the suite was beautifully decorated with a balcony offering a view on the outside; a thick glass protected this balcony from protecting them from the violent wind outside. There was a slick black couch that sat there stoically like a mountain in a plain of flat silver glass; above them was a small crystal chandelier, it wasnʼt large, and it didnʼt quite dangle considering the solid shaft connecting it to the roof.

And even the many other expensive objects scattered about expertly. Alex was pleased with their lodging.

He helped Maria to sit, her face was flushed red, and her breathing was ragged.

ʼʼHow are you feeling? A bit better, I hope?” Alex asked, not hiding how worried he was.

Upon seeing him like that, Maria felt loved, and her heart pounded loudly; she tried to calm down her beating heart but failed; she could only smile before tapping the space beside her.

No word needed to be said as Alex immediately understood what she wished to convey; he sat next to her. Immediately, Maria let her head fall onto his lap; in an instant, Alex gave her a lap pillow.

ʼʼYou know when I first discovered these side effects after I woke up, I resented myself for becoming weak as I couldnʼt do anything, but you came, although at that time I must have appeared strong in your eyes the truth is I was afraid of you seeing me like that.ʼʼ

Alex said nothing and let Maria continue her story; he simply caressed her hair gently and with love.

ʼʼWhen you think about it funny, but at that moment I didnʼt know, to me I must always appear strong before you.

As far I can remember, Iʼve always been strong when I met you even when we were children, even after you came back after going solo, I was strong, many people respected me, and when you said you love me, you want to date me; obviously I was happy, I thought it was because Iʼm a strong woman in your eyes.

Because of this, and I couldnʼt be honest with myself, I proposed that condition, me and the girls had indeed decided to marry the same man after coming into this world always to stay together, but I shouldnʼt have said it like that.

Fortunately, you accepted; your acceptance made me believe that you really appreciate a strong woman and because I wanted to remain that strong woman you love, I decided to become the head of the Harem at all cost, to remain that strong woman in your eyes and also because from child to adulthood, I have always stood at the top, so naturally I saw no reason for this to change even inside a Harem.ʼʼ

ʼʼBut my perfect plan to remain strong before you crumbled during my training days with my master, while I managed to unlock a powerful ability so powerful that even my master praised me for it and was envious, it came with a downside, I couldnʼt control it, in this mode, I could kill my allies without knowing it, and when this mode is off I will become powerless, the duration for this side effect is unknown, it could be only one day or three, last time it was an entire week, I guess this time it will last longer than that.

For me, who wanted to be perfect, I vowed not to use that ability before you because I might kill you or, worse, kill someone you love, either way, the result would be disastrous. It would be best if you didnʼt see my weak side; unfortunately, one wish was not always granted; you happened to see my weak side.

To make matters worse, it was in an unfavorable situation, captured and beaten, so I thought you would be disappointed in me even when you would be furious seeing in that state. To my surprise, what I feared didnʼt come true; I saw your love; you loved me because not Iʼm strong, but you love me because Iʼm me.ʼʼ

Maria took a break and drank the water Alex summoned from his item box before continuing.

ʼʼThis realization hit me hard, it was at that moment I knew that I shouldnʼt have been concerned about such petty reason, I should have loved, make you love me as I am, whether Iʼm strong or weak shouldnʼt matter, what mattered should be the way you love me, what made you love me.ʼʼ Talking until there Maria paused, putting her palms on Alex face she made him look directly into her ice-blue eyes before declaring.

ʼʼIʼm sorry it took me so long to realize such a simple truth, and thank you for loving me, for keeping loving me. I promise to make this love everlasting; I want to be by your side now and forever. I love you, Alexander Kael Touch.ʼʼ

It was a beautiful declaration that sent Alexʼs heart into a frenzy; how long did he wait for those words? To be frank, he loved Luna, maybe it began because of a promise, but he learned to love her, as for Sakuya, she might be an extreme sadist, Alex still loves her not to the same extent as Luna but nonetheless, he loved her, he was still trying to learn more about her for their love to grow.

However, in Maria case, it was different; it was his first love after all, back on Earth, he wanted her but was too busy, this changed after they reincarnated into this world, he vowed to make her his no matter what it would take, so without too much thought he accepted her proposal back then.

And finally, the girl he had his eyes on admitted her true feeling; Alex could not be happier, holding her face in return, he declared.

ʼʼI love you too, Maria Alexia Rosares, be mine forever.ʼʼ

ʼʼI will be yours forever.ʼʼ

An immediate response, the two sealed this oath with a kiss, a kiss filled with love.
