Molon sat motionless, he currently facing a flood of anxious thoughts. he couldn't consider whether to give a response or not? that she desired but in the first place he thought something entirely different maybe she also pranked with him or it's just mere flirtatious because of her ridicule behavior.
Of course, that was not true because when he looked into her beautiful green emerald eyes, he can sensed infatuated emotions that reflected solely to him but no matter how hard he could've thought.
he still couldn't understand why only he? Why she fall for him? Just because she impressed by his strength and valour that's not the reason he was sure it. yet he wanted to asked her all those questions that encircled in his mind.
" Lady Freya " Molon softly called out her name.
Freya didn't respond just looked at him with her smiling gaze and she started to caressed his hard bushy beard cheeks.
" Can I... Please ask you somthing?" Molon stuttered with a incredulous expression on his face.
" Yeah! Sure ask me anything that you wanted to say what kind of emotions and doubtful thoughts you may held towards me but one thing I can make it clear my each and every words that I spoke just now, it's genuinely true without any playfulness or prank that I did with Vermouth " Freya calmly responded with a faint smile.
" How is it possible.... that you fall for someone like me? " Molon scoffed.
Freya sighed softly after a short while, she responded in a tone that laced with amusement.
" What do you mean? Is it not possible for any woman to fall over to you? .... Well I don't want to deny the fact, I've every records of your history and past relationships but there wasn't any beautiful woman that confess her feelings to you like Vermouth and my precious brother "
At the mention of their names, Both vermouth and Eugene let out a few embarassed coughs and suppressed thier urge to laugh at molon's pitiful fate especially, regarding in the matter of women.
Molon glanced at her with tiled head, he didn't know whether to consider her words a mocking to him? Or it's just mere sympathy.
" I'm not making fun of you because you don't deserve such mockings like you're ugly and bushy beard man that gives a vile scent whenever someone saw your face they maybe liked you on the outside but from inside... they only thought of you as a fool who marched into the battlefield without any caution or a second thought " Freya rested a hand on him and explained.
Molon was well aware what was she trying to say? but he still glanced at his companion with weary eyes, what he saw confirmed his doubt because no one meet his gaze just turned their face to the side.
Freya continued her words, not showing any concern at this natural respone " you know molon what I truly hate?... I don't like that your companions looked at you as troublesome fool or negligible person who's not so important to talk and if it's about your face, I"ll be honest with you molon.... it's really so ugly and nasty.
Molon didn't respond at her unpleasant words, he slowly turned his face down with a sad and gloomy expression.
Eugene and the others stared at him with a concerned expression. They also thought that maybe a bit too harsh for him to handle such cruel words.
They wanted to sympathize with him and tell him like it's doesn't matter how does he look and for his clumsy behavior? They also never thought that as a problem but hearing such words that similar to their thoughts, they couldn't sure whether to say or not?....
But they still tried to persuade him and Eugene was the first to respond.
" Hey Molon! don't worry about such insignificant things... none of us cared about your looks "
" that's right! Molon, you're also handsome in your own way and lady Freya just said things.... in exaggerating way. So, don't take her words seriously " Vermouth comforted him with a wry smile.
" Why did you worry over such things? you're a great warrior and that is all that matters the most " Seinna also added her voice.
Molon turned to them and gave a incredulous look because he was quite confused does it really not matter how he look? Maybe for them but for him even he didn't want to admit such a feeling but he felt jealous of their exquisite faces like he's only the odd one.
Freya also glared at them with a sour expression, displeased with their sarcastic and manipulative words.
" don't fall for thier satirical words! Molon, like I said yours look is nasty and Detestable and I also know you can't anything regarding to your face and your body that also seem quite unpleasant with that huge bulking muscles,... Well it's not I don't like muscles but a lean muscular and a handsome man look much better than bushy beard giant " Freya reminded him as she rested a hand on her chin.
" That's the reason! why I'm asking it's not possible that you fall for me? Maybe you just to want make fun of me while saying such harsh things " Molon finally spoke up and turned with a sadistic expression.
Eugene and the others stayed silent because they felt hidden deep emotions behind his face like he's really hurt while listening to unexpected words from a unknown person that's he didn't even known well.
" I want to make fun of you? That's ridiculous! I already said a few times but for your concern." Freya laughed softly and placed a hand over to his right shoulder and declared " I"ll say once again... I love you and I don't feel any shame that I fallen for a person like you because there are too many similarities between us. We both are true to their words without any filter or masked that covered up with lies like others and we also are formidable warriors no... Gods and you know what make us more close that we held the same title : Terror "
Molon just left speechless with his jaw agape, he was flustered and stunned by her response. he didn't want to argue about such facts like sometimes people said such delightful lies rather than a harsh truth because they felt afraid of hurting others emotions.
" don't worry! If you accept me, I always stand by your as your life partner and never left you alone. you know I want to spend my whole life with you and even I thought of starting a family in the future if we really get so close just thinking such pleasants things make me felt embarassed... Don't you feel the same? " Freya said excitedly and her turned red like a lobster.
Molon still didn't want to respond to her words because if he, the consequences will be worse for him and he also don't any experience in this sort of things. With a shaky sigh, he turned his face to the side trying every efforts to avoid to her bewitching smile.
" oh ho! you don't want to give a reply, Fine... it's also charming of you and I also thought it's not possible to quickly come at a conclusion..... like you accepted my feelings or yes! we can start a relationship between us? It's wouldn't be fun for me but there is lot of time when you finally understand me but first we need to do something about your face? no.... about your overall appearance " Freya admitted calmly and then said gleefully.
Eugene and the others was still dumbstruck by her previous outrageous words, it took them a moment to realize that their mouth really fell open and shook their heads with a flabbergasted expression and there she said another strange thing, do something about his face? What did she mean by those words? Molon was the most shocked among them all.
Molon blinked at her in surprise a few times, unable to think clearly and he muttered in low voice " change my appearance.... What do you mean by that lady Freya "
" Instead of saying... it's better if I show it to you " Freya said simply.
" What? Show to me? ..." Molon asked curiously.
Freya didn't respond turned over to Elizabeth who's constantly glaring at her with a enraged expression and she was not surprised by unusual behavior because she's well aware the reason behind her frustration.
Freya took a deep breath and muster up her courage to whisper.
"Lady Elizabeth, please try to underst — "
" Elizabeth spoke over to her with gritted teeth " Freya! Are you fucking out of your mind?, we didn't come here to build some kind of relationship and how could you say such things like you fallen for that bushy giant and wanted to spend your entire life with him, are you finally lost it?... you know that very well neither me or other pillars will accept your selfish relationship "
Eugene and the others glanced at her with a crumpled expression and couldn't grasp meaning of her words maybe they can understand a bit maybe she's frustrated by her confession but what selfish is about that? just she's a member of the seven pillars.
" Lady Elizabeth, please honest with me don't you have feelings for my brother and you just come here to build a friendship relationship with him but after seeing that my brother don't want anymore women. So, you thought it's better to step back and pushed back your feelings... don't you? Not only you but other seven pillars also felt the same " Freya argued back with a smirk.
At this sudden revelation that come out of the blue.
Elizabeth turned glute silent and her whole body shivering in fear and embarrassment while biting her lips fiercely.
