Chapter 74

When Zach was eating breakfast with Aurora and Aria, Zach got a message from Kayden.

[Come to the guildhall! It’s an emergency!]

After reading that, Zach immediately got up and said, "Something came up! You guys eat and come to the guildhall later. I will meet you there!"

Zach dashed out of the house and rushed to the guildhall.

Meanwhile, in the house, Aurora and Aira were alone.

Aria and Aurora glanced at each other, and their eyes met by accident.

Aria averted her gaze, but Aurora kept staring at her. She squinted her eyes at Aria and said, "Listen, I will get directly to the point."

"Hmm?"

"Is something going between you and Zach?" Aria asked with a straight face.

"W-Why would you think that?" Aria asked, acting meekly.

"I saw Zach leaving your room in the middle of the night," Aurora stated.

’What was that idiot doing?!’ Aria thought to herself.

"Well... he..." Aria stuttered for a while and replied, "He mistakenly entered my room thinking it was his room."

"Oh..." Aurora nodded to herself and thought, ’It was his room at our previous house. So I guess she is telling the truth. I mean, what was I thinking? Zach would never do something like that behind my back.’

Aria had the option, to tell the truth or maybe even lie about something else that could break Aurora and Zach’s relationship, but Aria chose to save Zach.

"Umm... can I ask something?" Aria was acting like Ameria.

"Sure, why not?"

"Do you... maybe... like Zach?" Aria asked.

Aurora’s face flushed after hearing Aria’s question. She quietly nodded and said, "Don’t tell him. But yes, I love him."

"Why don’t you make moves on him then?" Aria asked with a curious look on his face.

"What if... he doesn’t like me back?" Aurora asked hesitantly.

"If you are worried about him not liking you or hating you for making moves on him; it’s just like admitting defeat before fighting the battle," Aria asserted. "If you truly love him, then fight with all you have and win this battle."

"..."

Aurora didn’t say anything and sat there in silence.

Aria furrowed her brows and said with a smirk on her face: "Or who knows, someone else might fight the battle and win."

"Huh? Are you saying that..." Aurora couldn’t finish her sentence

"You are smart enough to understand what I mean. If you get cold feet, someone else might warm up Zach’s body."

After running for 10 minutes, Zach reached the guildhall. He was still a little away from the guildhall, but he could see it in his sight.

Zach noticed that the guildhall was packed, and players were gathered inside and outside the guildhall.

"This looks serious..." Zach muttered.

Zach walked to the guildhall and glanced around to search for Kayden and Shay.

"Where are you... I hope everything is alright..."

After glancing around, Zach caught sight of Kayden.

"Hey, Kayden!" Zach called out to Kayden in a loud voice and waved his hand at him.

Kayden turned around and waved back at Zach.

"What’s wrong?" Zach asked as soon as he reached Kayden. "Is everything alright? Did Shay do something stupid again?"

"No. It’s—"

"Zach~"

Suddenly, a girl appeared from behind Kayden and hugged Zach.

Zach, of course, pushed the girl back and looked at her face.

"What are you— wait a minute!" Zach furrowed his brows and said, "Is that you, Misha?!"

"Yay! You recognized me!" Misha jumped in joy.

It was Misha, Kayden’s step-sister, and also his fiance.

Zach turned to Kayden with a confused look on his face and asked, "What’s going on? Why is Misha here?"

Kayden nudged
