Chapter ?579 Only A Few More Months...
"And the sleeping beauty finally wakes up, hmph," A silvery scoff resounded in Damien's head as he opened his eyes after a very long time.
If he was an ordinary person, his white robes would have all become dirty and crinkled long ago, and his body would have smelled like a swamp from not taking a bath for months. Of course, this was ignoring the fact that he would have long died of hunger and thirst if he had tried to go into seclusion for this long.
However, Damien's cultivation was at a level men and women of his age can only dream of achieving. Even some of the mightiest cultivators in the Rising Sun Continent would die from jealousy after seeing what this young man had achieved in such a short while.
After all, at just the ripe age of 18, his cultivation was soaring high at the Eight level of the Sky Ethereal Realm!
Of course, only those who knew about his combat prowess would die from shock, knowing how his true strength was far ahead of what seemed on the outside.
"Luna! You also finally woke up! And here I was getting worried," Damien said with a relieved smile as he saw a mesmerizing young woman manifest herself before him, her features ethereal and flawless like always, enough to captivate the souls of any living being.
He also didn't realize that so much time had passed while he only felt as if only a few days had passed.
Luna patted her beautiful and elegant white gown as she pinched her lips and said, "Ha! This goddess has been awake for a long time while you were busy cultivating. Do you have any idea how boring it was for me?"
"So you admit you missed me?" Damien said with a charming wink, making Luna's expression freeze for a moment before she lowered her body to rest her chin on her hand and said while staring at him, "Oh? Is that what you want to hear?"
Seeing her slight smirk and also the glimpse of her perfectly round and snowy upper breasts, Damien wondered if this bold and direct woman was indeed Luna.
Of course, he could see that her eyes contained the same indomitable arrogance and imposing aura, but her attitude seemed to be a bit..different? However, she seemed to have changed a bit, he liked this side of her as well.
"You must be tired of living if you keep on staring at my chest. Don't tell me you got hornier than I expected? I knew it..you wouldn't be satisfied no matter how many women you get," Luna said with a headshake.
Damien chuckled, feeling that she was still the same Luna he knew but just a bit different, "Now, don't go about assuming things. Besides, it is not my fault you are so beautiful. Isn't it natural for a man like me to get attracted to a woman like you?"
"Insolent! A mortal like you dares to yearn for this goddess?" Luna didn't expect Damien to counter her with such bold dialogues. She underestimated the changes Damien had gone through, both body and mind, especially after evolving his body to a higher level.
She thought that he would either cower or feign innocence when she accused him of staring at her chest. But only now she learned how wrong she was to assume like that.
"I can only dare to yearn, but it is up to you whether you want to kill me for such insolence or if your heart is soft enough to accept this mortal," Damien said with a smoldering smile, making Luna stomp on his feet angrily as she said, "Hmph, your tongue seems to have grown a bit longer just like that snake. Go and try your silly little tricks on Kalypso. Maybe she would fall for them considering how much she worships you."
Damien didn't feel any pain at all from Luna's angry stomp, especially since she was in her soul form and only made him smile in amusement. For some reason, he was getting fond of teasing her like this, and the fact that she was a supreme goddess seemed to be the least of his concerns, and this was exactly what was pissing Luna off too.
She had no idea why a goddess like her was entertaining such impertinent comments from him. If it was anyone else, she would have sundered their souls into oblivion, but at the same time, his comments weren't really making her angry. And this was the real reason that pissed her off, ironically.
"Stop bullying my master!" Kalypso's petulant voice echoed as she also manifested outside in her cute girl form wearing her usual gothic gown.
"Ah, you are still a little girl even after absorbing all that energy you got from Yohr. What a pity," Luna clicked her tongue with a mocking smile as she shook her head. After regaining her second soul fragment, Luna seemed to be a lot happier about being one step closer to regaining her true form, especially her body as well.
"Hmph, haven't you heard of the saying that all sweetest flowers bloom late? Just wait and see, and then I let Master judge who is the most beautiful among us two," Kalypso said with a peevish expression while Damien was enjoying the show going on before him, though he was already checking on Valentina, wondering why she hadn't still come out.
All he could see was a blood-red mist covering her entire body, and he was unable to see through it.historical
"You are not even worth it to be my rival. In fact, no one exists or ever will be my rival in anything," Luna said casually as she smiled.
"Not to dampen both of your arguments, but I have to ask if any of you have any idea what is going on with Valentina? Shouldn't she come out already?" Damien asked with furrowed brows.
Luna casually waved her hand as she said, "No need to worry about your girl. She is undergoing a kind of rebirth, just like how you did. I bet you are very much going to like it when she comes out," Luna said with a knowing smile.
