"Cheating? No, no . If history has taught me something is that history itself its wrote by the ones who win, you call it cheating, I call it tactics" Said shamelessly Alfonso.
Alfonso knew that his only possibility to win was with a surprise attack, after all, Artemis was way beyond his league, however, he also knew that Artemis was playing with disadvantage since the beginning.
"No matter how good she is, she is a hunter, so she isn't good at hand-on-hand combat, I bet that the other gods will probably will need to lift a finger to kill me" Though Alfonso.
After seeing that Alfonso didn't say anything else, Demeter made a sigh and went to Artemis side, she was still lying unconscious on the spot.
"She is just unconscious, the blow didn't hit anything important… Little Al, when she wakes up, she will really kill you" Say Demeter while touching her forehead.
"I don't…..hmmm…..well I will think about it later" Said Alfonso.
After some minutes, Artemis finally woke up. At first, she was a little confused but alter, she almost killed Alfonso for real this time, however, we won't got into details.
"Like I say,,,, is called tactics!" Said Alfonso, while sobbing his purple eye.
"Shut up! It's supposed to be an honorable fight but you…. You cheat!" Shout Artemis.
"I didn't , little blue was always above my head, if you didn't see it, that's your problem"
"Alfonso!"
"Well, at the end I won, didn't I?"
Artemis didn't know what to say , at the end, she just made a long sigh and look straight to Alfonso.
"Well, no matter what , a win is a win" Said Artemis.
"Are you sure about this, Artemis?" Demeter asked with a firm voice.
"...Yeah….. I have made my mind, plus , he did win after all."
Suddenly, Artemis did something that made Alfonso stunned.
"Alfonso Lockheart"
Artemis said with a firm voice, then she knelt in front of Alfonso.
"MY NAME IS ARTEMIS, THE GODDESS OF HUNT, DAUGHTER OF ZEUS AND LETO"
Suddenly a message from the system appear!

"Mark of the hunter? Well you sure are lucky"
A voice came from his side, he saw Artemis looking at him with curiosity.
"How…."
"Well, your iris… its color change to red" Said Artemis.
Alfonso noticed that he could see points on Artemis body, then he looked to his own body, the points on his body were so big compared to the ones on Artemis.
"I…I don't what to say...why…." Alfonso was confused, he didn't how a small duel lead to this.
"You know, when I was younger, I used to watch my father all the time, he was impressive you know"
Artemis say while an unusual smile appear on her face.
"He had his flaws….like women….. but, all in all, he was….my hero" Said Artemis.
"He always taught me that humans are fascinating creatures, they always surpass their limits in ways that even gods couldn't…. I never believe it…. Not until now" Said Artemis
Then, she grabbed Alfonso's hand looked at him.
"I have a feeling….. That you will change my mind over and over again… and that feeling….. I like it, so let me by your side, until you change the world" Said Artemis with a small smile.
Alfonso was fascinated with Artemis, he had a sudden urgent to hold her in his arms, but he managed to suppress it. He only looked at her and hold her hand even harder.
"I promise that I will show it to you" Said Alfonso with a smile
"I know you will…. My lord" Said Artemis
Both of them looked at each other for some time.
"Ahem.... I am still here you know?"
A voice suddenly broke the moment, Alfonso looked and the one talking was no one other than Demeter, who has been almost forgotten.
"My~ My~ , way to go little Al, managing to acquire Artemis's oath~ , not bad, not bad at all~"
Alfonso feel a little ashamed, so he didn't say anything, on the other hand, Artemis didn't seem to mind.
"Anyway, now that everything is resolved. How about we head back?" Asked Artemis.
"Wait" Said Alfonso.
"What is it little Al?"
"There is one more thing..... I've never say it to you before, so I may as well say it now…. I wouldn't been able to get where I am if you two weren't there for me…. So, I wanted to say…
Thank you" Said Alfonso while bowing towards Artemis and Demeter.
They were both surprised, before long, they made a small smile towards Alfonso.
"And for your efforts until now, I would like to give you the both of you something"
""?"" The both of them didn't know what Alfonso was talking about.
"System"
[Yes, Host]
"Invest all the Drachmas that you need and let Artemis and Demeter evolve to the Hero level!" Declared Alfonso.
[As you order, Host!]
