Chapter 270 - Did I Break Ais's Heart?
🕑 Added 2025-09-23 21:09:52 +0000 UTC“I’ve been wanting to start writing like you. So I’d like to ask for your help. Could you teach me a few things?”
“Huh?” When Ais finished speaking, I froze for a few seconds. “You want to start writing?” Is that what she wanted to talk about? I thought she was going to confess to me… Was I wrong?
But the way she acted, her flushed face. I really thought she was going to confess.
What the hell?!
“What is it?” Ais asked.
“Oh, it’s nothing. I was just expecting something else.” I said with a laugh. Ais tilted her head, looking confused. But after thinking for a few seconds, she finally understood the situation.
“...” She said nothing and turned her face away to hide.
“Sorry… I misunderstood.” I gave a weak laugh.
“...” Ais stayed silent, not saying a word. I started to feel more and more embarrassed, so I coughed and cleared my throat.
“So you want to learn how to write, right? Alright, I can help you with that. I can show you where I buy the paper and pens I use. I can also give you a few tips on how to develop a story properly.”
“...” Ais listened to everything I said and slowly turned to look at me. Her face was even redder as she spoke. “If I had done that, what would your answer have been?” Hearing her question, I was left speechless again.
What should I say? Should I tell her I would accept her confession?
Should I say yes, but then explain my relationship with Hestia, Lili, and Mikoto?
“Of course, I would say ‘yes.’”
When she heard that, the corners of Ais’s lips curved upward.
An awkward silence filled the air. I cleared my throat again, and before I could say anything else, Ais stepped closer. She reached out and held my hand against her chest.
She looked into my eyes.
This was something I never imagined Ais would do. Honestly, the Ais from the original story would never act this way. She has changed so much because of me. So much that it’s a little scary.
“Luan…” Ais whispered my name.
“Yes…”
“Would you accept staying by my side from now on?” she asked, staring straight into my eyes.
I slowly opened my mouth to answer her, but I didn’t know what to say. If I accept her confession without telling her about my relationship with Hestia, Lili, and Mikoto, I’d be betraying her.
I have to tell her.
If I let her find out on her own, she’ll hate me for the rest of her life.
It’s better to risk telling the truth than to let her hate me forever.
If I tell her the truth, maybe she’ll accept being part of my “harem.” But if she doesn’t, then we’ll probably just remain friends. I don’t want her to hate me. I don’t mind being just a friend.
If we stay friends, maybe in the future she’ll change her mind.
“Before I answer, I need to tell you something.” I lowered her hand and looked at her seriously. Ais widened her eyes in surprise.
“What? If it’s about Goddess Hestia, I already know. You like her, don’t you? You’re in a relationship with her?”
“...” She knew all along?! Seriously? Does she also know about Lili and Mikoto?
“So it’s true. I suspected something like that, but I don’t really mind. She’s the Goddess of your Familia, you’ve known her for a long time, and you’re really close…” Ais bit her lower lip.
Even though she said that, it was obvious she was bothered.
“Ais…” She doesn’t seem to know about Lili and Mikoto. What will she say if I tell her?
“I really don’t mind, it’s fine. As long as you’re by my side, that’s all that matters.” Ais said seriously, though her hands were trembling slightly.
What should I do? Should I tell her the truth?
I stayed silent for long seconds. Seconds that felt like an eternity.
Then, I said, “It’s not just Hestia.”
“...” When she heard those words, Ais’s eyes widened again, and I felt her hands grow cold. “What do you mean by that?”
“I’m not only in a relationship with Hestia. You know Lili and Mikoto, right? I’m with them too. I’m sorry, I can’t lie to you.”
I even told her about the wedding that was coming up.
But I hid the fact that they were all pregnant.
After listening, Ais’s hands grew colder and sweaty. Her small eyes shimmered—she looked like she was on the verge of tears. I sighed and tried to place my hand on her cheek, but Ais stepped back and pulled away from me.
“Ais…” I whispered her name.
She didn’t say anything. She turned and took a few steps away.
“I’m sorry, I need to think about this. I wasn’t expecting to hear that… And… and… I…”
“It’s okay. I’m sorry.”
“I have to go.” Ais said before disappearing in just a few seconds.
I looked up at the sky, and then a few system messages appeared.
[ Ais is feeling confused about her feelings. ]
[ Ais is feeling sad. ]
[ Ais is thinking about what to do. She’s unsure. ]
[ The mission is very close to failing. ]
When I read the last message, the only thing I could say was:
“What do you expect me to do about this?”
I can’t think of anything I could do to fix this. I told her the truth; now all I can do is wait. Lying to her would have been far worse—she would have found out eventually and hated me for the rest of her life.
“Damn… That hurt a little.”
Her trembling, sweaty hands, her gaze… I feel so guilty.
I just hope she really thinks this through.
If she doesn’t accept being with me, then it’s my fault for being a womanizing pervert.
