The fountain shines faintly and fills the room with a mysterious light. A young man was reflected from the fountain sitting atop of the tree while reading a book. If you looked closely the young man or maybe a boy was wearing black ornamented royal clothing and was obviously made to fit with his black hair and black eyes.

His most striking feature, if you ask me is his beautiful girly face. His black and wavy hair was swaying in the wind which coupled with great scenery was a beautiful scene.

If someone walks and saw him they would surely stop and appreciate the sight because it was so beautiful that they couldn't help but become mesmerized and mistake it as a beautiful picture painted by a professional painter.

“Is that him? Or rather isn’t he a she?” I mused.

“NO! He’s a man!” Cecelia angrily retorted. She looks at him with a face of dire longing and silently muttered “Isn’t he so beautiful?”

Looking at her, somehow Cecelia’s cheeks were…. Slightly dyed in red. I couldn’t help myself but smile ‘Oh god! She’s really head-over-heels for him’ I thought. I watched as she sometimes laughed while reminiscing.

Noticing my gaze. Cough! Cecelia cleared her throat. However, she was unable to smooth things over and she held her head down in embarrassment.

“Hey! Let us see! Come on, move!

“Uuhm….I also want to see”

“fufufu sorry for barging in!”

Behind them, Lux, Hecate and Venus snuggled up to see the person who captured Cecelia’s attention.

When they finally saw him, hints of astonishment cover their faces especially when some leaves fell down, I’m certain their mind was certainly filled with the thoughts of spring, although it would be better if instead of leaves it was Cherry Blossoms that falls, it will make the picture even more beautiful.

In other words, this young man left me speechless. He is surely one of the most handsome young men I’ve ever seen. No wonder my adorable little sister fell for him this badly.

“Whoa! Is he the one who’s going to be my Brother-in-law?” I chuckled hearing what Lux said. Then he turned and faces

Cecelia who is now dyed red because of embarrassment.

“I approve! You told us that he has a very kind and pleasing personality so I didn’t expect anything from his appearance but this? Isn’t he already a perfect human in that case? But I believe you! so …” he raised her thumb as if saying Good Job my Sister!

“Aha ahahahaha!” I couldn’t stop myself from laughing anymore. Although I too, just like Lux didn’t expect him to look like this, but somehow looking at my siblings I just can’t stop myself.

“ fufufu to make me this, goddess of beauty and love to daze and mesmerized at him. Fufufu I’m looking forward to the future! Fufufufufu”

Although Venus said something ominous while laughing; she surely was not thinking of something good, no one mind her.

Cecelia was slightly embarrassed no, she was so embarrassed that maybe if there is a hole in here she will surely jump and hide their immediately. She cleared his throat to disguise it and look away.

“So Beautiful! So he was the one at that time, right Cecelia-sama?” Hecate who was still watching him muttered.

First time hearing this, I tilted my head and ask.

“What do you mean Hecate?”

Cecelia loosens her cheeks and smiled, her eyes squinted joyfully. She answered Hecate without hesitation.

“Yes, he is the one!”

“I see…” Hecate gently smiled.

hm? What’s with this mood? I was perplexed. Great, a mystery only this two know. I had the strangest feeling that this will lead me to answer another question of mine.

Cecelia won’t just fell for a normal human because he is handsome and kind. We are gods, normal human don’t interest us that easily, but this mortal not just made Cecelia interest him but also made her fell in love.

‘I need to know this’ I thought. I glanced at the image of him silently reading his book. I was about to ask again when Venus seemed amused ask her them first.

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.

“So, care to share this memory to us! Fufufu I’m deeply interested with this!”

‘What? This Venus was interested in someone? Impossible!’ I retorted in my mind but I remained silent because I too want to know.

Just only for a moment, Cecelia closed her eyes, and stood there.

It was just like a painting, towards the young Goddess’s figure, which was quietly standing underneath the sun’s rays. The others could only squint at the beautiful and dreamy scene.

“Okay, I’ll tell you!

Hestia, who turned around and faced us, she gently revealed a slight smile.

“You see, it’s not the first time I saw him! I’ve already knew him long before we met”

“What do you mean?” I ask.

“It happened a long time ago. When I was checking the souls that died, I saw some supposedly souls that doesn’t reach me or show up in the Book of the Dead”

“You mean?”

“Yeah, they somehow manage to alter their death. They keep living on and survive their supposedly Death Date. I thought maybe it was just a mistake so I ignore it, but after a while, it happened again. More people keep on surviving their Death Date and their names were erased on the Book of the Dead.

Mystified and curious on what is happening, I consulted Hecate. There I also saw her being troubled because of some people keep changing their Fate.”

The surrounding Gods; me, Lux and Venus all lifted our face, with a “what happened” face, and continuously listening with a renewed curiosity……While I noticed Venus eye’s was sparkling and smiling mischievously as if she just found a new toy to played with. ‘Uugh, I hope I’m wrong’

“Hecate and I investigated it immediately. Through it we encountered the name Reki Yuuto. He was a very mysterious person. Due to some unknown reason, Hecate couldn’t read his Fate. Wanting to know him, I went to the mortal world called earth and there I saw him, travelling everywhere, learning new things and saving people without compensation. He lives his life with satisfaction and there is smile everywhere he goes. I was immediately captivated by him *blush*”

She finished telling her story while her cheeks were dyed red. I couldn’t help myself but be surprised at the same time happy for her.

“fufufu I see! Fufufu”

“I never thought brother-in-law …..”

“!?”

While saying Lux glanced at the fountain but then when he saw it he stops. Bewildered I also followed and then the others including Cecelia.

A figure appeared from the tangle of trees and weeds wearing maid outfit was reflected. But the thing that made us surprised was not her but what the young man did stealing a kiss.

“As expected from Brother-in-law hahaha”

“fufufu”

I was surprised. Then the atmosphere turned cold all of a sudden, I turned around and glanced towards the cause. Obviously it was Cecelia. Veins had already popped up on her forehead and then she stood up and walked away.

“Cecelia, where are you going?” I ask

She halted and turned around. Her gaze is fierced.

“To the mortal world ‘Montania’”

“What!?”

I was overwhelmed and was at a loss on what to do. The other’s gaze also stared at her stunned.

“WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! Damn! Who is that girl!? Reki is MINE, MINEEEE AHHHHH!”

Facing the especially loud cry that overshadowed all the commotions nearby, everyone was overwhelmed and was at a loss on what to do.

Towards this outrageous scene, ‘YareYare’ I silently muttered, while the others are holding her back.
