Chapter 212: 7.11 Second Violet Star - God of Darkness

Snow falling in summer is an impossible event in this world where seasons have fixed schedules. This is why when snow had started falling in the kingdom of Hart everyone who witnessed such a miraculous scene rendered everyone dumbfounded.

With doubtful eyes everyone in the land under Kingdom Hart's reign was now looking at the clear sky, except for clouds, there were only countless glowing snowflakes falling on their heads. Those who were injured and suffering from any kind of illness were instantly cured, even the weak-bodied elders felt refreshed when the snowfall on them. Every piece of snow is like a piece of elixir, it could instantly heal any ailments instantly. But when someone tries to store it for their own greed means the pure snowflake turns black and becomes a poison incurable of anything.

Angela Evans was stunned by what is currently happening. She asks his contracted beast through her mind.

'Snowball, what is happening? Did you cause this snow?'

The contracted spirit replies, {My princess, even for me it is impossible to cause such a large-scale spell which can change even the weather. Even the current Ice spirit king couldn't do such a thing. Moreover, this snow had a light element included in it. The spirit king of ice had no affinity with the holy element. This feeling... It can only be done by the lord!!}

Angela started looking around for someone's figure. She knew who that someone his snowball is calling lord. It can only be his Jiejie. According to Neige (the current ice spirit king), her Jiejie is someone he is destined to serve.

{Don't look around anymore princess the lord is not here. He is still in Ivern. This is a huge spell cast directly from Ivern. With just this one move from the lord, it is pretty obvious that the lord's mana can almost be compared to those Gods in the divine realm.}

'But Jiejie says his body isn't compatible with him and his powers were cut to halves. Is that why he died with a single stab in the heart and was unable to resurrect even with the help of the light temple?'

{!!!?}

"Anyway, since Jiejie isn't here there is no one else to ask. Let's punish the bastard that says he would be a dog if snow falls. Now that it's snowing it should act like a dog he is." murmured Angela Evans.

She saw the said man secretly running away from the crowd. She smiles fakely while looking at such a selfish and thick-faced man from before.

Lady Evans says, "Snowball, bring him over. He must do what he had promised. If he doesn't then... you can eat him~"

The man with a loose tongue from before was dragged by the huge silver wolf towards Angela. He was thrown like a rug on the uncemented ground.

"You should fulfill your vows, uncle~ everyone here heard it after all," said Angela Evans while smiling like an angel but the middle-aged man could see the large silver wolf baring his huge fangs towards him like a hungry devil.

This uncle in front of Angela could be seen sneaking a peek at the other wagon which Lady Laurel stays in. He is clearly asking for help from the other lady but the latter acts like she could see him.

Bela Laurel's thoughts: 'Tsk! Useless thing! Why the hell are you looking at me!?'

Seeing Lady Laurel's reaction the uncle glared at her full of hatred. He knew that Lady Laurel chose not to help him.

Lady Angela says, "Uncle~ are you going to do what you said or not?"

"I'm not doing it!!?" exclaims the unreasonable middle-aged man who made that promise.

The crowd had gotten noisier with this shameless man who renegade his vow from before. The shameless man was determined to go against his word when the children suddenly talked to him.

"Old man, Lady Night says liars will be punished!"

"Hmph! So what?"

One of the children noticed that the man's foot was slowly turning into a block of ice. The child innocently points out to it.

"Uncle, on your foot the ice is climbing."

The shameless man was startled and saw that his feet were covered in ice and it's climbing up slowly on his body. He wanted to struggle only to feel his feet turning numb and could only fall face-first on the ground.

"Aah!!! Save me!?"

Everyone watched as the man was eaten by the ice. He first his feet, then his knee to his waist, to his chest towards his neck until he was completely covered in ice and suddenly turned to fragments of ice to blood mist. The shameless man had become no more.

Of course, someone thought it was Angela Evans who killed the man but the children say otherwise. They said it was Lady Night who did it. It was their savior who punished evil and made them disappear. When someone retorts against the children's words, everyone notices that the snow falling from the sky moves on its own, freezing anyone who dares to bully the children.

Only then did everyone believe that it wants Lady Evans doing such things but an unknown powerful being does. They felt frightened by such an unimaginable being. It felt horrifying for them to know that under this snow, their lives were under someone's complete control.

The parade ended under such circumstances. Those who were terrified of being turned into ice statues ran back to their houses. Only the fearless children play around under the falling snow. They create a snowman and have a snowball fight. It was the same happy scene as if Eirwen Night was there playing with them.

Meanwhile at the Divine Realm,

The twin gods were watching the scene in some water mirror which shows the mortal realm's scene. Only when they've tried looking through the situation in Ivern that the water mirror broke countless times.

At their nth of making the water mirror only to broke,

Lucien says, "Someone is blocking our divine powers, preventing us to look at the things happening inside the land of Ivern. Do you think it's Neige?"

"No. Not him, he could only be called a demigod at most but he won't be able to completely blocked both of our powers in such an overbearing way," replied Adrienne.

Lucien thought of someone and he really thinks that might really be done by that person. But for some reason talking about this person made Lucien unable to utter a word and could only lightly open his mouth and close it instantly.

Adrienne knew what his brother wanted to say. He also thought of the same thing after witnessing the scene that just happened in the kingdom of Hart. Snow in summer and at such a large scale, not even the ice spirit king Neige could do such a thing.

Adrienne suddenly says, "I will ask my believers to prepare the ritual for me to descend in the mortal realm."

"Huh!? I want to do so as well, Addie!?" says Lucien.

"No, stay here and supervise the Divine realm first. Then I will arrange someone to prepare your ritual so you could descend as well. Make sure to clear up the things here before descending." says Adrienne.

Then Lucien complains, "Why does it have to be you who comes down first!?"

Adrienne glanced at him and said, "Because I'm older than you. I have to do it first!"

"Tsk! So unfair~" murmured Lucien.

On the other hand, at the land of Ivern.

The place is still like the description of beauty and cruelty. The white snow piles up on the land like clouds, soft-looking with a sense of purity. But if one closely checks through the snow they would be able to see left behind traces of living creatures. Frozen bodies within the block of ice, bones of all kinds covered under the white snow. It unhesitatingly took anyone's life for entering the forbidden land.

A never-ending winter and snow. No living beings are able to cross the land of frost. Even if someone did so, they would only end up laying in the snow, eternally sleeping.

But there is something that those outsides didn't know, at the deepest part of the land a small paradise could be found. It is a small forest abundant in mana. This is the place where the Ice Spirits live.

Within this hidden land, a small garden of Hydrangea clouds can be found. Within these fully blooming flowers with purple and blue shades is a sleeping man.

This person's eyes are closed at this moment, his long silver hair and the ice around him made him look so otherworldly. His divine beauty surpasses even the most gorgeous Goddess in the land of gods.

All types of Ice spirits guard the sleeping man like their treasure. They were all waiting for him to fully wake up from his sleep. Though the man would occasionally wake up, it would only last for a few minutes before once again falling asleep.

Neige, the ice spirit king, had never once left the sides of this man. He acted servile towards this divine-looking person but not only him did so. All the ice spirits in this world revere this man.

Neige who was waiting at the sides were surrounded by numerous ice fairies, they are the youngest type of ice spirits.

"King. King Neige~ when will the lord fully open his eyes?"

"Right~ when the king had brought the lord home he had a stabbed wound on his chest. There were no heartbeats that could be heard inside his body."

"Then we saw his chest wound close up on its own and his heart started beating once again. It was such a magical scene."

"The lord had revived himself. It was so amazing!"

"Right. Right."

Neige spoke, "The Lord says he needs to sleep for a few years as the body he has now doesn't fit his soul. He needs time to refine his mortal body."

"Years? How many years my king?"

"I also don't know. We could only wait for our Lord to wake up," replied Neige.

At the abyss where most demon races live.

Somewhere at the Demon lord's palace. A demonic priest receives a prophecy from their enlightened God, Adrienne. Asking for him to be summoned and to give him a body suitable for his descent.

"Oh! Our God of Darkness, Adrienne, had bestowed our race his blessing. He gave us the task of welcoming him back to this mortal plane. But the only suitable vessel for the god to possess is only the demon lord's body." said the demon priest.

Then every demon in the area looked at the demon lord seeing on his throne. No one else noticed but the demon lord's eyes at this moment are empty and dull like a puppet. It seems that the demon lord is also one of Adrienne's avatars in the mortal realm.

Only a voice from the demon lord side had spoken, "I agree to sacrifice my vessel for our God Adrienne." says the demon lord.

The demons cheerfully reacted to their Lord's words. They thanked his sacrifice for the wishes of the Dark God.

The demon priest announced, "The demon lord had agreed! Make the preparations for the ritual to summon gods!!"

What these demons didn't know is that the reason for their dark god descending is to look for a mortal. Since just using the authority of the duke of humans isn't enough for Adrienne to see his beloved. He decided to come down from the Divine realm to the mortal plane. All because he wanted to see Eirwen Night and check on whether he is truly alive or not.
