The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

Thirty minutes later,

A silver-haired woman looked up at the sky. The sun was still shining brightly, so it entered her room. In such a moment of silence, suddenly, the handsome face of a mortal male appeared in her mind, which caused Atvertha to shake her head several times. “What is wrong with me? Why does his face even come back, anyway? It is so irritating!”

The young lady tried to divert attention, even though it was not a hundred per cent successful. “I can’t go on like this. He already has a girlfriend, so there is no way that guy can turn away from her mate. I have to focus myself on studying, so I will not stress out when the time comes for Mom to test my skills, knowledge, and abilities.”

After the smart girl finished muttering, there was a knock on the door, which startled the maiden. As soon as possible, she turned towards the source of the sound without wanting to leave her seat. “Who is that?” asked Atvertha reluctantly.

“Goddess Atvertha, it is me,” someone answered from behind the door.

A woman with thin eyebrows just stayed silent and continued sitting in her original chair. Meanwhile, that maid was still waiting for an answer from the lady. After being silent for five seconds, Atvertha asked the other person again, but she looked the other way. “What happened?”

“Excuse me, Goddess Atvertha. Goddess Avtexia called you to come to the living room.” The maid answered. She was surprised because the Moon Goddess, who was the only daughter in the palace, had not yet opened the door. Meanwhile, Atvertha sensed something strange and did not want to move from there.

“Why should I go there?”

Damn it! Do not say that bastard has been waiting for me there. I never wanted to be around him, but why did the idiot always come around, anyway? What a jerk! That stupid man has already managed to win my mom and dad’s heart, so they always defend him just because he is the immortal god! Thought Atvertha, who was already irritated at the thought of the God of War.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

This time, it was the confused maid’s turn to answer. She remembered the message of God’s Helion wife when she was about to come to the place of the critical young girl. “Do not you ever say, if there is a God Toghnath here. If my daughter asked the reason, then you can say to her this is my order!”

“It is weird. Why has not the maid answered yet, huh? Has something happened? It is possible that my original estimate was correct if there was that bastard man with my parents. This had to be prevented, lest I meet the stupid playboy. He was just wasting my precious time,” said Atvertha slowly.

“Adtementhino gherighta tertha meghionegt gate ghetuhtz maghtehta!” [1] said Atvertha while pointing to the door. She still had not looked there, but the wallflower girl seemed to know who had been waiting for her presence outside the room.

After chanting the spell, the girl, who had a height of one hundred and seventy-five centimeters tall, deliberately did not want to say anything. Meanwhile, outside the room, a maid was undecided because her tongue seemed mute, so she could not answer the question of the Moon Goddess. Atvertha, who was curious, wanted to ask again, but she canceled only all of it.

“She is still silent. I will try to ask her one more time,” Atvertha muttered. As soon as possible, the future Queen of Witches turned her attention towards the door, especially to the maid, who was still standing behind it. “Why should I go there? Did any guests come and wait there?”

“Yes, Goddess. There is the God of War. He is being accompanied by God Helion and Goddess Avtexia.” The blonde-haired girl was surprised because the words that came out of her lips were not what she wanted. Atvertha, who heard this, smiled faintly without further ado because the spoken spell had successfully hit the target.

“You can tell my mom that I want to be here to study. If she does not believe it, then she can come here and check it by herself. Thank you.” The slender girl had deliberately refused because it fed her up with the presence of the God of War, which was already very disturbing.

“Yes, Goddess.” The maid did not know what else to say. She felt shocked, sad, and angry with herself because she had leaked information that Atvertha was not allowed to know.

In less than a minute, that maid walked out of the place. The sound of those steps was heard by the only daughter of the couple, God Helion and Goddess Avtexia. “That bastard always comes here. I really feel annoyed, because he always talks nonsense. What should I do to prevent myself from meeting him? Unfortunately, Mom and Dad love him, so they always defend him. Now, I have to set my focus on my learning, so I will not fail for the exam, although I still do not know when it will start.”

Meanwhile, in the Underworld

“Why did you invite that girl here? She came from the upper world. What was your purpose?” A woman heard the baritone voice when a lady with long black hair picked up a book on the closet shelf.

The two hundred-and-seventy-year-old woman did not answer as soon as possible. The Night Goddess still took the desired book, even though the man who was standing twenty meters from where he was standing was waiting for an answer from Nyx. A gripping aura was felt there, supported by the quiet atmosphere that existed between them.

“Nyx!” jerked the man with a firm jaw.

The owner of the name turned, then raised his head. Her face looked flat, so it did not show any emotion. Meanwhile, her brother was impatient. Tension rose between them, so the atmosphere there became even more sinister. “Why did you yell at me? I am not deaf,” said Nyx casually.

“You did not answer my question!” The tall man said sharply. However, her sister seemed to act normally, as if such a thing was not something that should be taken in a special way.

“You already know the answer, so why did you ask the same thing again?” The white-eyed woman remained reluctant to answer her brother’s question, so the color of the other person’s eyes turned red. Nyx seemed unperturbed, and the same thing happened to him.

“Sister, how dare you argue with me!”

“I am dare! Do not think you are the first son, so you dare to underestimate me! I am a Night Goddess from the Underworld! I have a right to invite anyone that I trust to come here!”

Instantly, a huge fire appeared that enveloped Goddess Atvertha’s good friend so that the older brother became a little flabbergasted. The fire burned nothing else but only encircled Nyx in a circle like a ring of fire, and it seemed to protect the goddess.

“Do you try to kill me just for the Upper world goddess?”

“Why not? You are the one who started this in the first place, and I will never back down, even if it is just an inch!”

The flames surrounding the girl grew bigger and bigger so that Lord Havento could not see her little sister’s face clearly. The anger that rose from within her had made the body of the goddess emit a circular fire fence automatically. In fact, the ring of fire was able to cover Nyx’s body from the view of her brother, who was ready to fight.

“Are you ready to die, Sister?”

Nyx burst into a scornful laugh when she heard this, even though the other god could not see it because the ring of fire was blocking Lord Havento’s vision. “Die? You are the one who will die in my hand!”
