Chapter 739: *Her personal guard*
A myriad of emotions passed through Zak’s beautiful eyes, and it was all Esmee needed to be sure that in this life too, Zak would be hers forever.
They had fallen in love in his first life, during a time when the Ancient Gods were enslaving all creatures without distinction. Humans, shapeshifters, legendary creatures, and even demons were not spared; they were their playthings.
Esmee had always protected her world as best she could against the other Ancient Gods, but she was just a laughingstock among them because she didn’t want to enslave the humans living in her world.
Her world was a peaceful one where the other Gods were forbidden to go. Because she could provide them with love potions and other aphrodisiacs, they left her alone most of the time.
The humans in her world had an easy life compared to those in other worlds, but she still trained elite soldiers, either fighters or mages, to be ready for battle if one day the other Ancient Gods wished to take over her territories.
Zak was one of her best fighters. He was promoted to be her personal guard when he was only 25. He was the most handsome man she had ever seen, and he was truly alluring when he fought. She grew fond of him, but at first, he rejected her attempts to seduce him.
However, it wasn’t that Zak didn’t find her attractive; on the contrary, he was madly in love with her, but he didn’t feel worthy of her attention and rejected her at first.
To him, she was a goddess, and she shouldn’t even spare him a glance. How could she have an adventure with a mere human? It was unbelievable to Zak.
During the time they spent together, they talked often. Esmee didn’t care that Zak was human; if he could reach level 200, he would become immortal and could stay with her forever.
However, it was rare for humans to be able to level up to level 200 at that time. In Esmee’s world, there weren’t many magical beasts, and they weren’t that powerful. The only way for them to level up was to train together and enhance their fighting skills.
