Noah spent the entire night passionately embracing Aria and Luna. Because he was still young, he didn't do anything indecent. His body hadn't matured yet, and he didn't have the same impulses that normal men would if they were embracing these two women.

Throughout the night, Noah kissed them several times. As he awoke from his slumber, he reflected on the previous night's events. He was first mortified by the fact that he had done so many embarrassing things the night before. He didn't expect to actually kiss both Luna and Aria.

However, he quickly began to question why he was doing such humiliating things. And why was he having such a severe headache just now? He locked his gaze on the clear container that had been put close. It was utterly depleted, as Noah, Luna, and Aria had drunk every last drop.

Noah opened this container and smelled it. When he smelled that foul odor, he instantly linked it to Alcohol. He then recalled all the events that occurred in the previous night and began to understand what had happened.

There was a hint of fury on his face as he stared at Aria and Luna. When Aria and Luna sensed a terrifying aura near them, they instinctively opened their eyes. They soon realized it was Noah who was glaring at them.

They realized he had discovered the truth. And after discovering the truth, he was furious! Luna and Aria gulped down a mouthful of saliva as they slowly stood up while keeping their heads down.

They didn't dare to look into Noah's eyes. Once they both stood up, Noah's voice thundered down at their ears, "Why?! Why would you fool me into drinking alcohol?! Did you want me to make a fool out of myself?!"

"Well, you got your wish now! Happy now?!" Noah asked sarcastically. He was truly angered by this stunt. Those words made Luna and Aria immediately raise their heads and look into Noah's eyes.

They both collectively responded, "This wasn't our intention, leader!" They were extremely loud and clear as they spoke these words. They wanted to make their point known to Noah and make sure he wouldn't misunderstand them.

Noah snorted coldly as he heard their words and spoke with a sneer, "No thief would admit to being a thief. Do you think of me as a complete fool?! It was my fault to have trusted you both so greatly!"

He drew his sword from its sheath and appeared to be ready to murder them. He didn't want such a menace lurking about his camp. Even eating and drinking comfortably would be difficult as long as these two were around. Noah would need to be suspicious of each item he was ingesting. There was no telling what they would make him eat or drink next time.

"Okay, if you want to murder us, go ahead. We are ready to die, leader. However, before you murder us, you must first learn the truth about what happened. I don't want you to misread the scenario and murder us in haste." Aria spoke up while looking into Noah's eyes.

She wasn't intimidated even as she saw Noah's enraged look. She knew that if Noah wanted, he could slaughter tens of warriors like her. Even if she tried to resist, the results would remain the same.

Just as she had spoken, all she wanted to do was explain the entire situation to Noah. At this moment, Luna spoke up, "I agree with her. If my death will resolve your anger then I am willing to die by your hands, leader. However, please know why we did this."

Noah snorted at those words, but he lowered his sword and placed it back in his sheathe. He took a seat on the chair ahead of them and spoke, "You have 10 minutes. If you can't provide a reasonable explanation to me within these 10 minutes, consider your lives forfeit!"

"Alright," Luna immediately spoke out. She was a little happy that Noah had listened to her request and was willing to hear their explanation. While Luna was delighted, Aria tensed a little. Unlike Luna, Aria knew that they couldn't just bluntly speak the truth.

Aria knew that she had to choose her words very carefully. Luna had no idea about how she should phrase her sentences. Thus, Aria knew she had to speak up quickly and take control of this entire conversation. Her eloquence would be tested at this moment.historical

"..Master, we noticed that you were rather melancholic during the past few days. And this sadness had only increased after Sir William left our group. However, I also noticed that you were trying to maintain a neutral expression to prevent us from finding out that you were feeling rather down."

"I have heard from an elder that if you keep your feelings bottled up inside yourself for too long, it begins to affect your daily life. You begin to grow frustrated at every little thing. If left alone for too long, this would even begin to affect your battles."

Noah's eyes widened at the last statement. He didn't realize it was such a serious matter and was listening to Aria's words rather solemnly now. Aria was happy that she had Noah's entire attention. The words she spoke were completely genuine.

"I and Luna didn't want you to experience this. Thus, we began to think of a plan so that all the feelings inside of you could burst out and you can be at peace. Leader, Alcohol is one of the few things that make a human reveal their inner thoughts, their desires, and weaknesses. Thus, we tricked you into drinking Alcohol and the results were amazing!" Aria finished speaking as she gazed into Noah's eyes.

By the end of her little speech, Aria could see the utter confusion and curiosity within his eyes. Actually, it wasn't just Noah who was confused or in awe at this explanation. Even Luna was caught off guard. She was clearly not thinking so deeply when she initially heard Aria's plan.

After a brief moment of silence in the cabin, Luna spoke out, "..I did this because I also wanted to kiss you, leader. I like you a lot!"

"What?!" Noah was startled to hear this confession. He turned his head in Luna's direction and had little to no idea how he should respond to her confession. He remained speechless for nearly half a minute.

Meanwhile, Aria glared at Luna and sternly spoke, "Luna! Didn't we agree to confess at a more appropriate time?! Aren't you making it harder for our leader to digest all this everything?!"

"Even you, Aria?!" Noah asked with a shocked expression. He naturally remembered that last night, he kissed the two under the alcohol's influence. However, he thought they were merely being kind or were just going along because he was their leader and didn't actually hold any romantic feelings for him. But it was now that he realized just how wrong he was.

The two had basically confessed their feelings for him just now. And to Noah's question, Aria shyly lowered her head but responded with multiple quick nods. She also opened her mouth and spoke out, "Yes, master. I also have feelings for you."

"..Give me some time to understand what has all happened here," Noah spoke as he left the cabin. In reality, he was just going outside to contact Azaroth and understand what was going on with his life.

He believed that only his master could guide him to the correct path. He would obey Azaroth's order, regardless of how challenging it was.

Azaroth's holographic figure soon appeared ahead of Noah's body. Azaroth asked Noah, "What's the matter?"

Noah explained the entire matter to Azaroth in a couple of minutes. When Noah finished his explanation, Azaroth asked him, "And why are you contacting me for this issue?"

"It's because I have no idea how I should resolve this issue, Master. I-I don't want to reject them, but if I accept their confessions and form a relationship with them, I won't be able to work hard and get the results I desire. So, what should I do, master?" Noah spoke with a rather troubled expression on his face.

Azaroth heard Noah's question and couldn't stop himself from chuckling.

A/N: I have decided to take a small break. It's been nearly 9 months since I began writing this novel. I never took a single break. But now, I feel that to improve myself I need to take a small break.

In the past months, I felt that I was forcing myself to write a chapter even though I had no bright ideas in my mind regarding that situation. I want to get back into the feel of writing for fun. So, please continue to show your support for this novel if you have liked it till now. I promise that the story will only become better and better.

If you want, you can support me on my p..atreon: bit.do/evildragon
