Chapter 1261: Date

"This is the first time we have a time like this." Agata was humming while hugging Theo's arm. Even though she said it was a date, there was nothing they could do in the ruined city.

They could only walk around the town while maintaining their vigilance.

Agata looked at the black-haired man as she also had black hair. This was just their disguise, but if the others saw them like this, they would think it was just a random couple.

"Yeah. Sorry that I have been too busy in the past two years to the point I have a hard time calling you." Theo sighed.

"It's fine. I know you well." Agata smiled. "I know that you've been working hard. I'm the one who feels guilty for not working hard enough."

"I did promise you." Theo chuckled. "There's no need to blame yourself. In my eyes, you've worked hard enough. From maintaining the information network to managing the company… you even make some time to hunt the monsters to raise your level."

"And now I wish that we can return to the past. If I met you in school, I wondered if we could be together like this without worrying about threats from all around the world…"

"Instead of that, you might not like me at all. After all, the me in the school was just an empty shell." Theo shook his head.

"That's true, I guess." Agata chuckled. "The bully might become worse if I approached you."

"Flaunting your beauty?"

"What? You don't like the fact I'm pretty?"

"I love it of course."

"Hehe…" Agata then pointed at a building. "Let's just sit there and watch the stars. Now that the city is ruined, there's no more lamp that can blind us from looking at the stars."

Theo nodded as he gently lifted them up to the top of the building. They sat down on the floor while looking at the stars.

"Still, I want to ask you once more. Can I handle the Skyward Mercenary by myself? I'm afraid you're going to be jealous."

"What do you feel when I'm talking with Maya, Rea, Nella, or even Ergene?"

"To be honest, I have prepared myself to share you with another woman. So, I don't feel much about it… I'd be lying if I said I'm not jealous, but I can accept that. After all, you're that charming."

"I can say the same to you… But still, you're really strong, huh. I might have a hard time not feeling jealous."

"Haha, is that so? But I'm thankful that you feel this way about me. You know what, if those people who pursue me hear me saying the possibility of a second wife, they will lie to me that I'm the only one for them while they're searching for the second wife. But you… you never lie, right?"

"Yeah." Theo nodded without hesitation.

"That's what I love about you." Agata smiled before tugging his shoulder.

Theo turned to her and saw Agata tapping her thighs as if asking him to lie down on her lap.

Her expression brightened as if she was begging him to lie down.

In the end, Theo gently put his head on her lap as Agata started stroking his hair while smiling.

"To be honest, I have wanted to do this for a long time. You've been working hard… harder than anyone else for the past few years. Sometimes, I want you to take some rest. I know that if I say it, you're gonna brush it off by saying you've rested enough.

"But to me, I somehow want to…" Agata gently covered Theo's eyes. "…close these eyes and tell you that it's alright to rest more. It's alright for you to stop working for once."

A smile appeared on Theo's face as he said, "I might doze off if you continue doing this…"

Despite wanting to let him sleep, Agata retracted her hands, knowing the consequence. Just like him respecting her choice, she also respected his decision.

"Still, let me lie like this for a while." Theo smiled. "It's truly been hard… the past few years."

"I know." Agata's soothing tone contained a bit of sadness. She truly couldn't help Theo more than this… She hoped she could do more.

"Say… do you have any thoughts about marriage?" Theo asked.

"I do, but I'm going to be angry if you ask me now."

"Why is that?"

"I feel like if you're gonna propose to me right now, it's because you're forced by the situation. You feel guilty for leaving me so long… and this is my reward for staying loyal to you this whole time. Instead of marriage, I want both of us to spend more time together first.

"It's not like I am against the idea of marriage, but I don't want you to regret this decision in the future because the time, place, and reason are not right."

Theo let out a long sigh. "I really can't beat you in this…"

"Hehe. Don't you know who gave me the blessing?" Agata chuckled.

Theo felt embarrassed and tried to shift the topic by taking out his Skylink to check the time. "I guess we only have two more minutes. Do you want to do anything?"

"Hmm… Let's see…" Agata contemplated for a moment before saying, "Do you want to dance?"

"Dance? I've never done that, you know."

"It's easy. Your reflex should be enough." Agata smirked. "Let's get up."

They stood in front of each other as Agata instructed him.

"Place your left hand on my waist and hold my hand with the other one."

Theo followed her instruction while Agata placed her hand on Theo's shoulder. "We just make some small steps to the side while circling around. Easy, right? Follow me."

As Agata said, Theo managed to follow her movement with ease as they slowly moved in a circle while feeling the serene atmosphere. The bright moonlight illuminated them as if they were in the center of a grand ballroom.

After a while, Agata gradually guided Theo's hands to her waists as she placed both hands on his shoulders.

Their faces were close to each other as Agata took the initiative to put her forehead against his. She closed her eyes while moving left and right, savoring every second.

"Theo…"

"Ehm?"

"I love you."

"I love you too."
