Stella and Gravis went to the other side of the lake to be alone.

Gravis was beyond nervous right now. He had tried his best, and he had been as honest as possible.

However, there were still two issues.

One issue was what he had done to Stella in the past.

The other issue was what he had told Stella about being very compatible with him.

Stella knew the Law of Freedom, and she could fully decide to do whatever she wanted. That could lead to her proving to herself that she could also ignore something like pre-determined compatibility.

Gravis took a deep breath as he closed his eyes.

He had to calm down.

"So, what did you want to talk about?" Gravis asked, realizing that this question was unnecessary.

Stella looked at Gravis with a complicated look, which made Gravis' nervousness rise.

Then, she slowly walked over.

And kissed him!

Gravis almost couldn't move due to shock, but his insides felt like they were about to explode.

Elation, skepticism, happiness, and love mingled.

For a second, Gravis couldn't believe that this was reality.

He had never been in a true relationship, and he had longed for Stella for so long.

Were his dreams finally about to come true!?

Stella stopped as she looked at Gravis, aggrieved. Her face was slightly reddened from embarrassment.

"I feel awkward when you don't reciprocate," she said cutely.

This pulled Gravis back to reality, and he immediately swept Stella up in a deep kiss.

Nervousness and skepticism vanished from Gravis' being as only happiness remained, uncontaminated by other emotions.

Love.

The love he had felt for Stella only became stronger.

They were finally together, and Gravis could let down all his guards.

He didn't have to be careful.

He didn't have to fear that she would die.

He didn't have to fear that she would stop him from becoming more powerful.
