The God of War
Zhou Confession
"We've known each other for a long time. Even ... long before I met you, wife." Zhou said honestly.
DEGR ...
Somehow there was a sense of tightness and pain upon hearing the confession from Zhou this time. Zhou said they only knew each other. And according to Zhou's confession, it means Zhou has remembered his past.
"Have ... you remembered your past? Did you know each other in the past?" lily asked with a voice that sounded increasingly trembling.
"Yes. What you said is true, wife. And that's what I want to tell you right now. I ... have remembered my past." Zhou said, looking more and more at Lily.
Lily was glued for a while. His mind drifted somewhere. And he instead thought that Zhou and Nouhime had a relationship in the past until they were very close, as Luoyi had said a moment ago.
"Lily, I ..."
Zhou's words hung because he began to realize that at this moment a poisonous arrow had suddenly shot very quickly towards Lily.
SSRRC ...
GRATN ...
Just when the tip of the poisoned arrow was only a few inches from Lily's face, Zhou quickly caught the poisoned arrow.
SWOSSH ...
Zhou who noticed and read the attack, now immediately catch the poisoned arrow and immediately throw it back with his strength until the poisoned arrow right hit the heart of a man who was hiding behind the trees that were not far from them.
NEB ...
RHODOL ...
"Arghh . "a moan from a man was heard along with his voice falling on the ground.
Zhou quickly darted, but Zhou had not had time to catch him, the man dressed all in black then used his vanishing style in just one flick of his hand.
There was no hint of anything left behind, and it only left behind a swarm of dark aura that slowly disappeared along with the breeze.
Although he managed to escape, he would not survive. That poisonous arrow would make him lose his life in just a few seconds. But who is behind all this?
Inner Zhou thought hard.
Zhou came back to Lily who still looked quite shocked. Because almost the arrow hurt his face.
"Wife, are you okay?" zhou asked after approaching Lily again.
"A ... I .. I'm fine." he said.
"It's my fault. I shouldn't have taken you out of the palace. Being outside the palace will now be so dangerous for you. Let's get back soon!" Zhou immediately invited Lily to return to Nobuhide's palace.
...🍁🍁🍁...
The night is getting late. When Lily and the son were asleep in a room, Zhou was sitting across and struggling with two large and thick books in front of him. Those books are books of life as well as heirloom books and all powers.
Accompanied by a fairly simple and dimly lit illumination, Zhou could only browse through the two books at the moment. Because both books can only be opened at dawn, with dew or with the light of the dawn.
But apparently Lily had caught up with him and was in Zhou's private room in the pavilion they lived in.
"Wife, why did you wake up again?" asked Zhou who was still sitting cross-legged in his place.
"I woke up and saw you weren't asleep. What was? Did something happen?" lily was worried about her husband.
"Hmm? Just not sleepy yet. You go to sleep again, it's very late .." said Zhou warmly.
"I'm not sleepy anymore." Lily greeted him with her gloomy face.
"What's wrong? Are you still scared?"
Lily was silent for a while and shook her head slowly. Zhou who realized Lily's stubbornness finally smiled faintly and took the initiative to immediately resolve the matter.
"Come here .." said Zhou as he patted the floor nearby asking Lily to come over immediately and sit down with him.
Lily obediently approached Zhou and sat down nearby.
"Are you still thinking between me and Empress Nouhime?" zhou asked softly and stared fixedly at the beautiful woman.
Lily, who was still looking down, now nodded slowly.
"Me and Noahime have nothing to do. He almost fell in the ravine and I saved him. When he was injured and sprained in the forest, I again confirmed his nerves. And I took him back to the carriage back then." Zhou explained.
It took a while for Lily to digest what Zhou had delivered, until she finally started answering him after a while.
"I'm sorry, I should have believed you, Husband .." said Lily softly and felt guilty instead.
"I also apologize to you for making you suffer with this kind of thinking. I should have asked the soldiers to take care of it. Sorry ..."
"No! No, Husband. You're not wrong." Lkly looked up at Zhou and shook her head slowly. "That's your job. I was the one who was wrong because I was thinking wrong and thinking bad thoughts to you. I should have believed you. Sorry ..."
The two stared at each other for a moment in silence. Until finally Zhou began to reach for Lily's fingers and slightly pulled her warmly to make Lily get closer to him and sat on his lap back to him.
"Lily .. I want to tell you something." Zhou said softly right by Lily's earlobe.
"Yes?"
"I told you that I've remembered my past. This time I'll tell you .." Zhou said without a single second letting go of his gaze to the side of Lily's face.
Lily simply fell silent and was still patiently waiting for an explanation from Zhou.
"Wife, actually .. I am the eldest son of the emperor Fumio. I am Hades, the man who was rumored to have died while falling inside the cliff of the valley of death" Zhou said.
Hearing that confession, Lily froze for a while. Diia really did not expect that her husband was a prince of an empire. All this time Lily had only thought that Zhou was an ordinary young man with extraordinary talent. It was unexpected that he was no ordinary young man.
"Is that really? You're the prince of Hades? The eldest son of the Fumio empire?" after a while Lily repeated Zhou's words and turned slightly towards him.
Their views meet again. With his shady face, Zhou nodded faintly and smiled faintly, "That is right, Wife. That's me ..."
Instantly Lily who was feeling surprised, tried to get up from Zhou's lap because she felt disinclined. But Zhou did not let go and instead held him back.
