Chapter 267- Kiss Me Too! (Part 1)

Lein was still in disbelief after hearing Acht's theory, manipulating time was simply too absurd of a power for her to believe it was real. Someone who can manipulate time is basically omnipotent in every sense of the word, a higher being for the lack of a better description.

He can go to the past, change the past and resurrect the dead, he can kill an infinite amount of people even if they gang up on him. He can travel to any place in the world instantly.

All of that was nothing but a drop in the ocean of this ability. So, if it really existed, the whole world could easily crumble down in the hands of that user.

"If he was really that strong, why didn't he just accomplish his goal without the need to create Nightingale."

"Maybe because his ability is not as overpowered as we thought. I can't believe that he could freely control time, there have to be restraints on him that make him more 'human'. The point is, these restraints, whatever they are, are most likely the answer to our questions." Acht explained with a sharp look.

"I guess you're right…"

Acht then sighed and stood up.

"What are you going to do now?" He asked.

"I will settle down nearby for the time being. I'm also going on the expedition." She said.

"Well, suit yourself. See you later." Acht said and started walking away.

"Acht…" Lien suddenly called for him.

"Hm?"

Even though she was the one who spoke first, she seemed hesitant about speaking. But, after taking a huge gulp of wine, she wiped her mouth with a groan.

"Ugh… How should I say this?... Fuck! I'm not good at this."

"If you don't want to speak then I'm leaving."

"No, wait! I wanted to apologize."

"Apologize?"

"The shit that happened a few years ago… I thought about it for a long time. I get that you really got screwed really hard and almost lost your life. Mm, it's not really something I could fix but I can at least apologize."

Acht's gaze and silent reaction made her avert her gaze with an awkward look. It was very apparent that she wasn't good with these kinds of talks.

"Well, you did fuck me up at the time. But, shit happened to both of our sides. I can at least not fight you to death here. Consider your apology received, no hard feelings but I didn't forgive you either."

"I get it… I will try to live a better life." She said.

"That's for the better."

After that, Acht picked up the artifact of the barrier and left the place. Scarlett should've already dealt with the matter of the destruction.

When he was far enough, he saw a group of girls waiting for him. When they saw him, they immediately ran toward him with a panicked look.

Seeing the fear in their eyes, a weird yet fuzzy feeling welled up in his heart. It was not bad at all, in fact, it kinda felt good. It's as if he belonged to some place, a family in a sense.

Then, a small smile appeared on his face.

Of course, for the next 5 minutes, he had to answer the barrage of questions they had for him. That included the full story of Nightingale, Lein, and other things. When he was done.

A shocked look could be seen on Mia's face who didn't know this story at all.

But, after calming down slightly, she hugged him with tears already in her eyes.

"I never knew Acht suffered this much… It must've been so painful." She said as she tightened her hug around him. 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m

"You're such a crybaby." He muttered teasingly.

But, the glares of the others girls ruined the moment and Leislet quickly pulled her out of his embrace.

"You should learn to respect personal space!"

"Says the bitch with the big tits! Your boobs alone destroy any personal space that could exist!" Mia retorted.

"Boobs this boobs that! All you could think about is boobs you perverted girl! Or maybe you're just jealous because you have a cutting board for a chest. Hahahaha!!"

"W-What?! I don't have a cutting board. Look, they are big too. I'm also still developing."

"Yes, yes. I'm sure you are." Leislet replied sarcastically.

"I will kill you!!"

"Oh, try me."

"You can keep fighting here. I'm leaving." Acht said.

"Huh?"

"What?"

The two looked dumbfounded when they found Acht and the other two already leaving the place.

"W-Wait for me."

"Acht, don't leave me here."

They both ran after him with worried looks. They thought that he might be angry because of them but the truth is that he just had a lot of things to think about.

After that, they all walked back to his room and sat down in the living room. Acht then cooked dinner and they ate together. In less than hour, all the girls except for Scarlett slept there.

They were really tired and the fight only made it even more harder for them to stay awake. Acht rested his back on the couch as he patted the sleeping Tania on her head. She chose his lap as a pillow.

His eyes also traced her face as she breathed quietly adn rhythmically.

'Looking close at her, she really did change in the past 5 years.' He thought to himself.

Scarlett was sitting across from him, sipping a cup of tea she prepared a few minutes ago. Her eyes seemed lost for some reason.

"Scarlett?" He muttered her name.

"Hmm?"

"You have something to say?"

"No, not really… It's just that I was recalling all the things we went through. It has been one hell of a journey." She said.

"You're right." He replied as he traced his hands through Tania's head making her purr like an adorable cat. She must've been feeling really good.

"Acht, do you have something that you're hiding from us?" She asked.

"Why do you ask?"

"I don't know, it's just a hunch of mine."

'Should I tell her?' He contemplated carefully.

But, before he could even say anything, she sighed, put the cup of tea on the table and walked to his side before sitting awfully close from him.

"Neh, can I request something from you?"

"Hmm?"

"Can you kiss me?"

Scarlett asked with a weirdly calm look. Her question was far from being causal though.
