Chapter 263: Misha's Secret

After talking with Aurora and Victoria for a while, Misha left Aria's domain.

Victoria and Aria also left as Aurora had fallen asleep. They met up with Zach, who was acting strangely for some reason after seeing Aria.

Meanwhile, Misha met up with Kayden and went back to their house, which they got as a marriage gift.

After entering the house, Misha sat on the couch of the living room, while Eric was drinking water in the Kitchen.

SIGH!

After seeing Misha sigh like that, Kayden raised his brow and asked, "What's with that long sigh?"

"It's Aria I think she has gotten suspicious of me" Misha muttered.

"What do you mean?" Kayden asked with a confused look on his face.

"She kept asking questions about our relations.h.i.+p. She also asked me how far we have gone now that we are married. And when I told her we haven't done anything, she asked why. Honestly, what's her problem?" Misha groaned.

"I want to know that as well. Why haven't we?"

Misha frowned at Kayden and said, "Don't forget our marriage was fake, just like our parent's marriage. It's meaningless! I only think of you as a brother."

"Yeah, yeah. I hear this at least 10 times a day." Kayden let out a loud groan and said, "Seriously, you don't have to remind me of that. It's kind of sad, and I feel hurt that you played with my feelings."

"I didn't."

"Yeah, you did. If you wanted us to stay as brother and sister, you should have turned me down when I confessed to you in the park on Zach's birthday," Kayden uttered in a disdainful tone.

"Well, Zach was present there and I I couldn't turn you down. Otherwise, he would see how well' we get along," Misha snickered. "And by well' I mean bad."

"As if I didn't know that."

"And we only got married in this game to complete the special quest and get this luxurious house and a lot as a reward."

Kayden looked at Misha from the corner of his eyes and asked, "So, what is it going on with you and your mother? Who are you two?"

"Stay out of my private life," Misha responded with an annoyed look on her face.

"Wow. You have been getting more and more distant with time. What's your deal? No, seriously, I am genuinely curious what you and your mother think of me and my father?" Kayden asked with a serious look on his face.

""

"Do you think we are some kind of simps? Or fools who can't speak back to defend their self-respect?" he uttered with a judging look on his face.

Misha looked into Kayden's eyes and asked, "What do you know of your biological mother?"

"What's that have to do with my question?"

"Just answer me, please"

Kayden let out a weary sigh and uttered, "When dad found me or should I say, took me in after finding out I was his blood-related child, I was around seven years old, and there were many things I didn't understand."

"But after growing up and thinking back about it, I found out that my mother was a prost.i.tute who died for STDs" Kayden responded in a calm voice.

"Who do you think informed your father about your existence? You don't seriously think that some miracle happened, and he suddenly found out about you, right?" Misha uttered with a knowing look on her face.

"Oh" Kayden's eyes widened in realization and murmured, "So it was your mom"

Misha shrugged her shoulders and said, "If she hadn't done that, you would still be living the life of a homeless person, or worse, you might have already died."

""

After a brief pause, Misha said, "This world is a cruel place, and surviving in it is hard. And even after comparing it with G.o.d's Impact, I still think that the real world is worse in every way."

"By worse, I a.s.sume you are not talking about the graphics and textures, am I right?" Kayden asked with a soft chuckle.

"Obviously. This is all an illusion, but still It's fascinating. Of course, only because it's made by G.o.ds."

"So what exactly do you mean by worse?" Kayden asked curiously.

"Everything in general," Misha scoffed as though she found her joke funny.

"It's not weird for me to see people laughing at their own joke, but yours wasn't funny; not in the least," Kayden remarked.

"Exactly! And that's why it's hilarious."

"What do you mean?" Kayden muttered with a confused look on his face.

Misha stretched her arms in the air and said, "You can take a nap or something if you want. I am sure Zach would have bored you to death."

"What will you do?"

"I will take a bath and then cook dinner for us," Misha responded without looking at Kayden.

"I can cook for us if you want me to," Kayden shrugged.

"It's my turn today, so I will cook."

"Aren't you tired too?" Kayden asked with a knowing look on his face.

"Not really."

"Fine~ but let me at least prepare the ingredients," Kayden groaned with a sigh.

"Okay."

After saying that, Misha made her way to the bathroom and closed the door behind her. She stood in front of the mirror and stared at her reflection.

She recalled how annoying Aria was with her, and gritted her teeth before frowning her face.

"What's her problem? Did she get suspicious of me?" Misha wondered.

Misha then took off her clothes and stared at her body through the reflection on the mirror.

"I hate her. G.o.ddess of death and destruction" Misha clenched her fists and muttered in anger: "Why did Zach fall for her? Did she maybe charm him or cast a spell on him?"

GASP!

"What if she tricked him into signing a soul pact with her, and then dominated the contract? And now she is treating Zach as her man slave?"

'No' Misha shook her head and muttered, "Zach is smart enough to protect himself from such schemes."

"Aria" Misha frowned her face even more and uttered, "She is supposed to be the exact opposite of her sister, Erza. Yet she is nothing like I was told."

The glare in Misha's eyes slowly turned soft as her facial muscles relaxed. She once again stretched her arms in the air and admired her beauty in front of the mirror.

Then, she jerked her shoulders, and golden wings sprouted from her back.

FLAP!
