Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

"Why are you so in love with me?"

Hearing James' question, Nemesis shook her head and tried to avoid the question as if she couldn't answer, she stood up and tried to walk away, the subject of love was new even for Nemesis who had lived for millions of years.

Nevertheless, James gently took her by the arm and guided Nemesis back to her seat.

Even though Nemesis was averting her eyes from James, she still felt certain that she had to answer.

"I was there the day you chose my mother's card. My mother was always a loving woman and, my father was the same way, but we brothers couldn't get along no matter how much we depended on each other. When you came along, Moros started to laugh, Thanatos started to show emotion, and Olympus' presence began to change. What I felt for you at first was a great admiration, y great admiration.

I couldn't help but admire someone who had managed to change everything so much with his mere presence."

Each of Nemesis' words seemed to caress James' heart, and he honestly didn't think he would be this surprised.

"However, as the days went by, I realised that this was not the case, I didn't admire you, I was really in love with you. At first, I didn't think it was true, I had never felt anything but brotherly love in my life, but you...the feelings that rose inside me every time I looked at you made me sure of it, I was deeply in love with you."

As Nemesis said these words it was possible to see tears welling up in her eyes, James took a napkin from his inventory and then used it to wipe away the tears.

"You were on my mind every day, every step you took, every breath you took, some days I even stopped sleeping, I was watching you. The day your life was in danger, my heart fell into darkness, that's when I realised I was in love. My mum was going to send my brother to help you, but I ran into the portal she opened, the opponent didn't seem very strong anyway."

James really couldn't help feeling embarrassed, it was very special that Nemesis held such a special place in his heart.

"However, I did see the way he looked at me. Those admiring glances were more beautiful than I had ever imagined. My heart was pounding but I had no idea what to say, I thought of myself as an idiot for a very long time after I told you to get out of there."

Nemesis, who closed her jaw for a few seconds after these words, took a big breath again smiled and said, "I entered a period that started from admiration and never left my mind. I fell in love with you because I wanted to be a part of your freedom.

I didn't want you to be the only one when you stood at the top one day tomorrow because I wanted to be with you as your family, as your wife, just like my father and mother's relationship."

James stood up when he heard those words, He didn't know what to say, Nemesis' thoughts about him were even bigger than he had imagined.

After taking a deep breath and locking onto Nemesis, Jamey wanted to get away from there instantly because he thought that he could not climb the floors risking his life in the responsibility of someone who loved him so much. After all, you couldn't risk your life if you had someone in your life unless it was for them.

Still, he thought it would only be foolish to run away, and then, shaking his head, he grabbed Nemesis by the hand, pulled her to her feet, and said these words:

"I will never regret what I am about to do."

And with those words, he was glued to Nemesis' lips. If he couldn't tell Nemesis what was on his mind, what he was thinking, he could express it through actions.

After a kiss that lasted almost a minute, the two panted, and then Nemesis asked, "So does that mean yes?" James smiled and said, "You are silly, aren't you? What part of monogamy don't you understand? I'm not going to kiss every woman that comes my way."

When Nemesis heard these words, she fell back in her seat. Nemesis's legs, which had gained the rank of the goddess of war in addition to the goddess ranks bestowed upon her by Chaos at her birth, had officially released themselves from weakness.

"I love you too, I thought exactly what you think of as admiration. That's why I gave one of my Philosopher's Stones to Ronald and asked him to make you a necklace. I didn't want you to be harmed."

Nemesis didn't know what to say at James's words, and at that very moment, someone's voice rose from a corner of the room:

"You're already late, it should have happened as soon as you met."

The voice came from Moros, he was looking at the pair with a coffee mug in his hand.

James and Nemesis couldn't help but start laughing and even giggling at the sight, neither of them had thought this would happen just a few minutes ago.

"I have to go and rest now tomorrow morning we have the training and then the feast in the evening," James said suddenly, catching the attention of both Nemesis and Moros.

'What training?' Moros asked, and hearing this, James said, "Chronos wants to train me."

Moros paused for a few seconds and then said, "Well, this is a big opportunity, seriously."

Nemesis was just as puzzled as Moros, it was popular knowledge that Chronos had never even taught his children, and the fact that he now wanted to train James would indeed become a major talking point on Mount Olympus.

However, there was nothing more to be done on this day. In just one day he had learnt a great deal about time that he did not know and had found himself a lover who was serious about him.

Now he had to rest.

There were exactly 6 days left to leave Mount Olympus, he had to make the most of every second. After all, James' wish was to get as strong as he could before leaving the mountain, before coming here he had only wished to meet Chaos-Borns, but now he had more hope than he had ever hoped for.

He had a real opportunity to get stronger.
