In Volts City, entertainment by demon women and children was at its height. Now, they were already completely part of the city, mainly because they were stronger than most other races and had saved many who were being attacked outside the city.
In contrast, no one dared to provoke them, since they were considered Theo's people and welcomed by him. Even though they were demons, those who wanted to use them to increase their religious followers would not dare. There was a saying: Whoever is the ass is afraid.
"These are the profits made by our Demonic Clan. Oh yes, Theo, is it okay if the children of our clan create dolls with your image?" Theo's popularity had reached a very high level and he was a kind of superhero for children, but adults, however much they wanted to create something in Theo's image, it took courage.
After all, they didn't know what Theo's reaction would be when he discovered that something like this was created. Because of that, Morgana brought it up.
Morgana had a pair of green horns and a small green tattoo of a diagonal diamond. Her skin was incredibly white, the kind that leaves a red mark at the touch, and her hair was dark green. Wearing a dark blue suit, it was undeniable that she had an excellent body, with above average breasts and a big butt. Sporting a large pair of legs, she was one of the most attractive women in the Demonic Clan. It was no accident that she had many suitors in Volts City.
Theo smiled slowly and said, "Do they worship me? Haha. Okay, well, I allow you to do that, but I don't want it to be commercialized."
Morgana's eyes lit up and she nodded, "Thank you! I know just what to do."
"Mm, was that all?" Theo took a quick look at the documents and passed them to Ariana.
"Yeah," Morgana said with a mature smile, "I'm going then..."
"Wait," Theo said, "There is something I want to say."
"Okay." Morgana looked at him.
"Sit down." Theo pointed to the chair in front of him.
Morgana sat in the swivel chair and felt nervous as she was being stared at so intensely by Theo.
"Relax, you don't have to be nervous." Theo laughed and said, "As you already know, I am looking to expand the name Volts all over the World Spirit. For this, I am expanding business to all neighboring countries first, and in the Chula Country, which is on Chula Island, I have already started a project, and I am opening a subsidiary of Volts Corporation there. Now, the important part comes."
Seeing Theo being serious, Morgana adjusted her posture.
"I want you to be the CEO. The main focus is going to be sales of pills and potions," Theo explained, "This will be both the subsidiary of Volts Corporation, as well as the headquarters that will command all branches that refer to pills and potions. Being very sincere, it will be difficult, and a great responsibility."
Theo paused when he saw her take a deep breath and become even more serious. He said, "Do you think you can do this?"
"I-I..." Morgana was perplexed to the point of having a lump in her throat. She swallowed a mouthful of saliva and calmed her temper, looking like a pregnant woman breathing and perspiring several times. After feeling calmer, she stopped and reflected.
Theo waited patiently while drinking coffee served by Zaika. Seconds, then minutes passed. Almost 10 minutes later, Morgana let out a long breath, and then her eyes showed determination. "I'll do it. I want to do that!"
"Perfect." Theo smiled at her and removed a file folder from inside the Storage Ring and passed it to her. "All the necessary information is in that folder."
"I know what to do." Morgana acted professionally and put all her fears and insecurities aside and promised herself to do a good job, and not to disappoint Theo's trust in her.

"Theo." Ariana grabbed Theo's neck and kissed his face and smirked. "She's very charming~~ Are you watching her?"
"If I say no, would you believe me?" Theo asked in response.
"Mm, no, but at least I would pretend to believe it~" Ariana said with a mischievous smile.
"Kyaah!"
Theo pulled her, and made her sit on his lap. "So, what's the use of asking?" He replied, "I even find her very attractive..."
"But?"
"But, that's it. I have no other feeling than that." Theo pinched Ariana's nose and pouted and smiled.
"Okay, I believe you~" Ariana said with her seductive voice.
"You seem a little hesitant to say something, what is it?" Even though she disguised it, Theo already knew her well enough so that it didn't go unnoticed.
Of course, he respected his women's privacy and did not read their memories evasively.
"Err..." There were rare moments when Ariana showed such a serious and hesitant expression. After grinding her teeth hard, she sighed and said, "There is something I hid from you."
Seeing that, Theo continued to stare at her without wavering. Ariana continued, "You know... I met you before I even met you at the Orphanage. To be more precise, I heard stories about you, but it wasn't the kind of rumors about a golden fox that was feared by many; it was about a red fox that became a golden fox and started its journey to become strong."
Ariana felt her heart pounding. She was afraid of what Theo's reaction would be to discovering the truth, but seeing that there was no change in his expression, she sighed in relief, but was still afraid, since that was only the beginning.
"My late mother, she had a gift for reading the stars, because of that, she saw her future. And in that future, I was not in it." Ariana bit her lip. "I was a little girl and I thought it was just a fairy tale, but then... I found out about the Orphanage told in my mother's story when she passed away. I traveled alone across an entire province until I arrived at the Fallen Star Island. I met the Orphanage that I thought existed only in the fairy tale, and also the person who stayed with the golden fox, Shina."
"I-I fell in love with the golden fox in the books. Yes I know. Immature, yes? But like, when I saw you at the Orphanage, it was like a whole world had taken on color. I thought, oh he is- he is the man of my life; I really love him. Childishly, I know I didn't even know myself, but I had already declared myself to you of course. I said it was love at first sight, but I already loved you long before, even before I met you in person."
Perhaps for fear of rejection, drops of tears streamed from her eyes. "Strange, yes? Are you disappointed now?"
Theo did not speak. It only served to terrify Ariana, but then Theo leaned over and kissed her. Wiping the tears from her eyes, he smiled softly. "I'm surprised to hear that, but that's all."
"Wait, what?" Ariana felt stupid at that moment.
"Yes, you love me?" He saw her nodded. "I love you, too. That's all that matters."
"But..."
"Ariana. Don't say anything else. I say, regardless of what happened, I love you now, and you love me, yes? So, we won't talk about it anymore. I don't care if you saw me in a kind of book or not, what matters is what I feel. And what I feel is that I love you. Other than that, nothing else matters."
Standing up, placing Ariana sitting on the couch, he smiled at the sight of her stunned, and rubbed his warm, gentle hand on her face, and left.
"Oh..."
Ariana remained in place, stunned. She seemed to have suffered a major blow to her heart. Since her heart was beating harder than ever, it made her fear of it beating so hard that it might jump out of her chest.
Zaika was also close by. Although she was surprised by what she had heard, she calmed down very quickly. She gave Ariana a complicated look, but didn't judge her. To be honest, she didn't know what she would do if she were in the same situation as Ariana. In any case, she could say that Ariana loved Theo deeply, which should be enough. Zaika left and Ariana was then alone.
A few minutes later, Ariana smiled so totally, she looked like a teenage girl in love. She felt like screaming, dancing, rolling on the floor... She could barely control her emotions. The result was much better than she had expected.
