Chapter 243: 7.41 Second Violet Star - Remorse
After helping Viktor Hart and Angela Evans in completing their contract with the golden dragon, Adasha. He hurriedly went around to look for his honey and then he witnessed the scene of his elder twin giving Eirwen a passionate, deep, and sultry french kiss.
His black eyes widen in disbelief and anger. He couldn't believe that his elder twin brother took action without him.
"Ah!!! UNFAIR. Let me join too." with these words he ran towards the two and jumped on them.
Almost instantly the figure of these three had disappeared in the area. Obviously, now that the things that involve the children are finished, these lovers who have only met face to face today had so many things to talk about. Thus, they left without bringing the others with them.
The rest were dumbfounded witnessing the scene of Eirwen Night exchanging a steamy kiss with that man called Adrienne and the most surprising yet funny about this scene is that Lucien jumped on the two regardless of whether they were kissing or not.
Those who were left behind were dazed and dumbfounded as they started in the direction where the three had disappeared. Zhi Yue's eyes glowed when he saw that scene. He immediately says his farewell to watching... I mean return to his host's side.
Zhi Yue said, "Mingming, I'm going to watch... Not that... Hehehe I'm going to return to work. Leave the children in your care."
Before dematerializing and turning back in his form as the little moon avatar. Under the eyes of others who had no connection to the system was now unable to see him. System Yue had immediately flown out to follow his host and watch them papapa. I mean fulfill his job as the system of Eirwen Night.
If not for the glowing bright eyes of Zhi Yue from before that Neige would believe him as someone dedicated to his work but it seems he is more dedicated to something else.
Neige dazedly looks at where Zhi Yue just flew off.
"Amazingly, every time Yue doesn't get killed for watching the Lords do such a thing," murmured Neige.
Viktor and Angela approached Neige who was the only one left to accompany them together with their newly contracted friend, the golden dragon Adasha.
Angela asked, "Big brother Niege where did they all go?"
"Personal reasons." replied to Lady Evans's question before moving his gaze at the now silent dragon who was scared of her life. "You should make yourself smaller and less suspicious. As a dragon you should be able to use disguise magic don't you?"
Adasha nodded her head and instantly made some changes in her form. Her whole body emits mana and it only took a minute for her to transform into a golden fox. Afterward, she jumps towards Angela and pretends to be her fur scarf.
{Since we are contracted I should be able to stay with you 24/7 but if that's not allowed I could also wait somewhere near.}
Lady Evans giggles when he touches the fox on her neck, clearly delighted with Adasha's new form.
Giggles~
"This way should be fine. There are only a few who would be able to recognize you in this form. By the way, what is your name? I am Viktor Hart and she is my lover, Angela Evans."
historical
{I see. My name is Adasha. Masters, it is nice to meet you.}
Angela rubbed her fur and said, "There is no need to call us masters. You can call us by name, Adasha."
{But I don't think the Lords would like that?}
"It's fine. Brother Lou and Brother Addie wouldn't mind. Moreover, we have my Eirwen-ge on our side." says Angela.
Viktor spoke, "Right, it seems Brother Addie and Brother Lou listen to Brother Eirwen's words no matter what circumstances."
Neige spoke, "The children are right. Just continue to protect these two with Snowball and those pixies. They would be the most important humans during the war against the demons."
{Demons vs Humans? Is the Lord not interfering with this matter?}
"No. The three of them will not get involved in this matter. The only interference they would do is to make sure these children would grow up as the future Hero and Saintess. As for the rest of the problem, they wouldn't care about it at all." says Neige.
"Come. You are here for a mission aren't you?" asked Neige to Lady Evans and the crown prince.
Viktor replies, "Yes, we are here to defeat a wyvern."
"I see. Then I'll escort you on the way. Don't worry I won't get involved in your battles. Just observe in the side and report to my lord afterward. Let's go!" said Neige.
With this, the three-plus dragon and an ice spirit wolf went deeper in the area of the Nightmare Forest to complete their mission. As for the F-rank missions that Neige and Eirwen had taken, it was already completed the moment Lord Night killed all slimes by the riverside.
On the other hand, the location where Eirwen and the twins disappeared to is inside the dimensional space owned by Eirwen himself. Their disappearance made it look like they've used teleportation but the truth is the twins were pulled inside the separated space under Eirwen Night's control.
The twin gods were welcomed by a lush forest full of unknown energy which is different from the world energy outside of this world. The towering trees that could match even the height of their temple in the divine realm, greenies, and florals which are both familiar and unfamiliar to their eyes. Moreover, the energy this small world possesses is extremely relaxing for them to bear.
Eirwen Night pulled away from them and led the way.
"Follow me. We will talk in the mansion. You guys wanted to know who I am and who you guys are right?" said Eirwen.
Adrienne spoke, "You are not originally from that world where that vessel came from, aren't you? The name Eirwen Night is not your real name either."
Lucien had the same serious expression as his brother. He had also thought a lot of things about Eirwen Night that they've even checked his existence from the original world he and the other candidates came from. Asking the Heavenly Wills of that world the only answer they've got is that.
"The child named Eirwen Night existed but... He had died the day the other candidates were summoned to your world, Aerd, as a promise."
The twin understood by then that the Eirwen Night that entered their world is a deviant existence. An unknown variable whose being itself came from outside their control. In short, a dangerous existence. This is the reason why they've done what that voice is telling them to do and tried to eliminate Eirwen Night as to balance the plot of their game.
What Lucien and Adrienne didn't expect is that Eirwen Night's existence came to be more important than their own. When Eirwen Night died that day, the twin finally felt what an agonizing pain and sorrow is. Guilt and regret eating their heart and soul every moment of time that Eirwen Night didn't exist in their world. An indescribable emptiness and loneliness assaulted their whole being.
The last two years of Eirwen's death and disappearance almost made them crazy. Especially for Adrienne who had personally witnessed and ordered the death of her beloved. The endless nightmares about Eirwen made him suffer at the same time. But at least in his dreams, he would be able to see him.
The twin gods waited for their beloved to answer. They didn't ask him to give an answer but instead silently waited. It was at this moment that Eirwen paused his footsteps and looked behind him precisely at the twin who was staring at him with eyes full of doubt yet passionate love and yearning.
Eirwen gave the two his true smile. "My real name is Hei Anjing. As for the rest, you should be able to understand it when we get to the mansion."
Adrienne murmured, "Hei Anjing? Jing... Jing'er?"
"That last one isn't bad, Addie," said Lucien who heard his elder twin brother murmuring their beloved's name.
They head to the mansion within the dimensional space and continue their conversation there.
Inside the Mansion.
The interior of the man is still the same as before. A living room with a fireplace and a wall television, a center table and four corner couches. A huge dining hall, entertainment room, study room, library, master's bedroom, and guestrooms.
Nothing had changed since the last world. Except for a few bookshelves full of photobooks. The photobooks were labeled according to what type of world it was. There are currently 7 labels on it. The last one is Fantasy and it is currently empty.
The first to three labels are all modernly separated into three types: Entertainment, Music, and Business. The fourth label is Supernatural, followed by Beast as fifth and sixth as Apocalypse.
These words aren't known for a God-like Lucien and Adrienne as they themselves knew the existence of the other worlds. It is just that Aerd had contracted a relationship of interchanging with a world called modern earth100.
Right there are lots of earth in the galaxies. There are special phenomena called parallel worlds. Same name but different timeline. Among them, the highest realm of Earth is called Vearth. This is the treasure grove the Origin God had created himself.
Lucien and Adrienne were stunned to see the photo books on the nearby bookshelves. Some were taken from each and were opened before them. Most photos were about a same-sex couple. They were loving and affectionate in all the photos.
Between the couple, there is always one with similar phoenix-shaped eyes. This person gives the twins the feeling of familiarity. When they've looked up to see Eirwen. They saw him smiling at them, his eyes doting as if they were the most important in his eyes.
The twins immediately understood. That these couples in every book are all couples with the same soul.
Lucien asked, "Are these couples... In each and every world... Jing'er and us!?" he was astonished.
"We've been married six times and even have a son. Our baby is so smart and adorable. His name is Jingxia. You like to call him Xiao Jing. Well you can't see him in this world as his grandparents and granduncles from my family had brought him home for vacation." says Eirwen Night while drinking his ice choco-strawberry milk tea.
A hoarse voice can be heard and asked, "Then... The real reason why... you came to this world is... to find us!?"
It was Adrienne who asked the question. He was dazed as he looked at Eirwen with tears falling down from his eyes when he saw him nods his head showing his agreement to the words he had asked.
"And I... ordered you to be... killed...'' his voice turned hoarse as he said those words, Adrienne's voice was full of regret and despair.
He could still remember the scene too clearly in his memories. The pure white dress was suddenly dyed in crimson the source of the color was coming out from the pierced chest of that slender body. The metal blade passes through from behind his back to the area above the chest.
Blood splurges like a waterfall and as if a red flower blooming from his chest, the white clothing made the scarlet hue more prominent. Eirwen Night's pale figure looks at him with a sad smile on his beautiful face but his skin slowly turns bloodless and even those cerise lips turn purple, lacking all vitality.
This was the hellish scene that his mind could never forget. This is the heaviest mistake he had made and the most sorrowful memory in his life. Lucien could also recall that scene of Eirwen's body when he was first carried by his brother's avatar to the temple of light in Agios.
Sallow skin completely lacking vitality, a feeble figure which didn't even have a single hint of inspiration coming from him. His phoenix-shaped eyes were closed as is sleeping but even then there is a smile suggested in the corner of those purple lips as if he was having a nice dream. If not because of the absence of his heartbeat and breathing, Lucien would think that Eirwen Night was only dreaming within his elder twin brother's embrace. Their first meeting happens to become their farewell as well.
"Is there someone who wouldn't go crazy knowing that you are the cause of death of your own beloved!?"
The twins would never forget this scene in their whole life but... Would this really be the last death of their beloved they would ever witness?
