The supreme sovereign system

While Alfonso was trying to find his own will, Demeter and the others had their own meeting in a room nearby.

"Aunty, this is dangerous, you know better than the rest of us how dangerous a possible revival of Chrono means" Said Dionysius.

"… I know" Said Demeter with a gloomy face.

"Dionisius, be careful with your words, Alfonso has not shown signs of being possessed by Chrono's will" Said Artemis.

"Artemis, you better not have doubts in our duty" Said Dionisius.

"What did you say?"

"I am just saying, that, in an event that we have to take out our swords, your hands wont tremble"

"Dionysus, you better take that back"

"Stop it, both of you!" Said Demeter.

Dionisius looked at Artemis before returning to his seat.

"Demeter, Dionisius has a point, you and Artemis had been with Alfonso the most, although I don't what you two went with him, it's true that he is a potential danger." Said Aphrodite.

"It's a potential, however, he isn't one yet" Said Demeter.

"Demeter, your will is strong, however…"

 Aphrodite stood up and looked at Artemis.

"Artemis, although we hate each other, I don't want to lose another sister, I don't ask you to kill Alfonso right now, however, I do ask you to be prepare mentally" Said Aphrodite.

Artemis stood up and walked towards the door.

"I am"

With those words she left the room.

The three gods looked at the door.

"It seems that her period in as a mortal has changed her" Said Aphrodite.

"She is becoming… more human…"

"Is that a problem?" Asked Demeter.

"Of course, it's a problem" Said Dionisius.

"WE ARE GODS"

Demeter looked at Aphrodite and Dionisius and smiled bitterly.

"It seems that, even after all this time, we still can't live in freedom" Said Demeter.

She also stood up and leave the room.

"Am I wrong?" Asked Dionisius.

"No…" Said Aphrodite.

"However, not being wrong doesn't mean you are correct"

.....................…

Artemis left the room and looked at the two moons hanging in the sky.

"…" Her thoughts, even she didn't understand it herself.

She, without knowing it, walked towards Alfonso's room.

*Knock* * Knock*

She knocked the door, however, there was no answer. She pushed the door and saw that Alfonso was there, looking to the same moon.

"Artemis?"

"What are you doing?" Asked Artemis.

"I was mediating until a few minutes ago, however… things can be rushed, so I decided to look at this beautiful sky"

"…"

Artemis came to Alfonso's side and looked at the starry sky.

"It seems that you have something in mind" Said Alfonso.

"…" Artemis didn't say anything.

"Is about what to do with me?" Said Alfonso with a smile.

"…yes…" Said Artemis.

"Why do you look so down, you weren't sent here to kill me, right?"

"Why are you laughing!?" Shouted Artemis.

"Do you even know what that means!?"

 "I- I will have to- I will have to-"

 "I WILL HAVE TO SEE MY LOVED ONE DIE IN FRONT OF ME AGAIN!"

"WHY YOU CAN'T SEE THE DANGER YOU ARE IN!?"

"WHY IS MY DESTINY TO SEE PEOPLE I CARE DISSAPEARED ONE AFTER ANOTHER!?"

"WHY AM I GOD!?"

"WHY…WHY!"

Alfonso was speechless, the usual cold and calm Artemis… was actually… crying?

"Artemis…"

Alfonso grabbed Artemis and hugged her.

Artemis was surprised and her heart skipped a bit, however, after some hesitation, she closed her eyes and hug Alfonso back.

Under the light of the moon, Alfonso's eyes meet Artemis's.

"I will not run away"

"I will fight with Chrono and defeat him!"

"As a human, I won't let the will of the gods trample my own!"

"That's why, Artemis, you also have to fight, you can't run away from you own nature, however, you are not the goddess Artemis that I met a year ago"

Artemis looked at Alfonso with a surprised expression.

"You are Artemis, the goddess" Said Alfonso.

Something inside Artemis seem to have cracked, like the sound of chains being destroyed, after hearing Alfonso's words.

Although it seemed that Alfonso was just paraphrasing, for Artemis, it means something extremely different.

She wasn't the goddess Artemis.

She was Artemis, the goddess.

Artemis stood in silence before smiling.

"You won't let it defeat you?" Asked Artemis.

"I won't" Said Alfonso.

"You won't be consumed by the darkness?"

"I won't"

"You won't let me suffer again?"

"I won't"

"A promise to a god it's something serious, you will be killed by worms that eat your stomach if you break it" Said Artemis.

"Well… I-"

"That's why, just to remember you to not break you promise…"

Artemis closed to Alfonso.

"Artemis what are you-"

"!!!!!!?????"

*Chu*

A small kiss to Alfonso's cheek.

"I have put a curse on you, if you break your promise, I will not let you off" Said Artemis with a smile.

"!"#!$#"%$#!!!!!" Alfonso was so confused and red that he couldn't made a word.

"Well, I have to go, sleep well, my lord"

With that Artemis disappeared, leaving the confused Alfonso there.

"#$!%$%&"

For some time, Alfonso couldn't utter a word.

.....................…

Outside of Alfonso's room, Appeared Artemis.

She took some deep breaths erasing the loving smile from her face and returning to her usual cold one.

However, before she took another step…

"Ho~ look who we have here, the little slut who took advantage of the situation to make a sneak attack!"

"!!!!"

Artemis looked back and saw Demeter, who was looking at her with a smile that wasn't a smile.

"Wha- what are you talking abo-"

"'A promise to a god it's something serious, you will be killed by worms that eat your stomach if you break it'"

"!!!!!"

"That's why I will put a curse-"

"Stop! Stop it!"

"Hmph! I was worried about you so I followed you, who would have thought that you were here making a sneak attack behind my back, not fair!" Said Demeter.

"That… that wasn't my intention…"

"And what was that!? That *Chuu* sound!?"

"No, it wasn't what you think!"

"It was a kiss right!?"

"No, it wasn't!"

"It was in the mouth!?"

"I could never do something so shameless!"

"So, it was a kiss after all!"

"!!!!"

"Not fair, not fair! If I knew that you were going to use the 'princess in despair' card, I would have used it before!"

"It's a dirty move!"

"A slutty move!"

"I-" Artemis wanted to refuse, however, she couldn't.

Indeed, the 'princess in despair' card is unfair.

"Hmph! Now that things have come to this, I will also make my move"

 Demeter paused for some seconds before her aura suddenly changed.

She felt to the ground and tears began to fall from her check.

"Ah! My cursed destiny, I live alone while my own daughter is suffering in hell, oh! The agony! I need a man in shiny armor to rescue me, Alfonso, here I come!"

"And I will finish with…"

"Why do I have to be a god!?"

After her performance was over, Demeter cleaned the tears on her eyes and dusted the dirt from her dress.

"Okay all set!"

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN ALL SET!?" Shouted Artemis.

"Stop this act already! Where is your honor!?"

"Zip it traitor! I also want to go *chuu* *chuu*!"

"Stop making those pervert noises, you are a god!"

"I am also a woman!"

The two of them began their small fight.

[Meanwhile~]

A young man whose face was as red as a tomato was covering his face while hearing the noises from outside.

"I can heard you both you know!?" Though Alfonso.
