2. Serving The First Sentence

After seeing Aranjo leave the hall, the Emperor said goodbye to the Heavenly Emperor and returned to his residence.

Of course, he has other goals for the decisions he makes. The emperor was sure that after going through 10 lives in the mortal world and going through the disaster of love, it would leave Aranjo without feelings. It would be great especially to increase magic power, Aranjo had a unique talent and the Emperor had seen it from the beginning.

However, Aranjo's words about marrying her had made him doubt whether the decision was right or not.

The decision has been made. At the moment, it can only wait for Aranjo to finish serving his sentence.

Aranjo along with the two soldiers went quite a distance. They climbed quite numerous steps leading to the portal to the mortal world. If only to go to the mortal world the Gods and goddesses can do it without passing through the portal, but currently Aranjo must pass through the portal in order to be reborn as a human in the mortal world.

Finally they arrived at their destination, a very spacious place with a large hole in the middle. A goddess approached him and the two warriors left Aranjo there.

"Aranjo! I have accepted your punishment!"

"Listen carefully!"

"This is the first life you will go through in the mortal world and there are still nine lives you have to go through. Once you jump into that hole, you will be born human. When you turn 15, your memory as a goddess will return. After returning, you will also vividly remember your life in the mortal world!" said the goddess of the Guardian portal.

Aranjo fell silent, it turned out that the Emperor's decision was quite cruel, by making himself keep in mind the 10 lives he would live in the mortal world.

It means that all the pain and sadness she went through, will always be remembered even after returning to become a goddess. Usually Gods and goddesses who undergo trials in the mortal world will forget who they are and also forget everything they experienced in the mortal world when returning to the celestial realm.

"And in every break between lives you are allowed to return to the celestial realm to recuperate!" continued The Goddess.

Aranjo has only one way and no way back. So Aranjo walked slowly towards the portal hole. It was then that her memory returned to the events that led her to receive this punishment.

As usual, Aranjo will only be in the pavilion when there is an important event in the large residence. From what Ara said, today is the day when the God of Fire, Vulcan comes to propose to one of the Daughters of the God of The Night.

What he didn't know was that the God of Fire wanted to propose to Aranjo instead of her two sisters.

The fire god was fascinated by the appearance of Aranjo playing the harp at the night God's Birthday event. Although Aranjo's face was always covered with a veil and there were rumors that it would seem bad, but this did not shake the determination of the Fire God to propose to the eldest daughter of the night God.

This made her stepmother, the God of the Wind, angry as well as her two sisters. The God of Fire is quite famous in the Sky Realm in addition to his high magic power, the God of Fire also has a charming appearance.

The proposal was accepted but not for Aranjo but rather for Halley, the youngest daughter of the God of the night and the Goddess of the wind. But they did not say that until the time of the application was held.

At that time Aranjo who was in the Pavilion jumped shocked by the loud knock of the door. Aranjo opened it and saw one of the servants of the main residence standing in front of the door.

"Ara, Ara he was unconscious!" The waiter said anxiously.

After the number of times framed by his stepmother and two sisters, she always avoids being asked to the main residence. But at this moment hearing Ara was unconscious made Aranjo panic. Ara is her nanny, but for Aranjo, Ara is her everything.

Aranjo ran quickly towards the main residence and was followed by the servant. Upon arriving at the main residence, the servant took Aranjo to one of the corridors of the residence.

"That, that room is Ara!" said the waiter, pointing to the very end of the room along the corridor.

Aranjo ran and didn't care about anything else, she just wanted to make sure Ara was okay.

Halley hides behind one of the pillars of the corridor and using her magical powers makes the straps of Aranjo's veil break. Aranjo paused briefly from his run and picked up the black veil that had fallen on the floor. 

Aranjo only grasped the veil because the straps had broken, so it could no longer be used. And Aranjo doesn't need a veil to meet Ara.

Aranjo pushed hard against the wooden door of the room and ran inside. Her eyes looked all over the room looking for Ara's whereabouts. But she did not find Ara, but Aranjo was very surprised when she met directly with a God she did not know.

Aranjo took a few steps back and with a surprised look, Aranjo said, " Who are you? And where is Ara?"

Vulcan, the God of Fire is fascinated with the beauty of Aranjo. As expected, the Goddess was very stunning and the decision was right to marry the Goddess.

Although it has high enough magic power, but it is not able to withstand the aura of Aranjo. Eyes and a smile can bewitch those who see. But the look of fear at this time can make the beholder lose his mind and cultivate the desire to have in order to be able to provide protection to her.

Vulcan approaches Aranjo and Aranjo tries to avoid the God. Aranjo took one step back as God took one step forward. Until Aranjo gets stuck in the wall and can't shy away from the God. The gaze of their locked eyes made the God even more bewitched by his charm.

Aranjo could no longer rewind her steps and right now the God was right in front of her, staring at her intently. The two hands of the God held tightly to both sides of Aranjo's upper arms and pulled the body of the Goddess close to her. Aranjo had never been in contact with any God during his lifetime and this was a new feeling that she did not understand. Not fear, but why was her heart pounding so fast and Aranjo felt his face heating up.

The God kissed Aranjo's beautiful lips, for a moment Aranjo was not sure what the God was doing. Vulcan hugged Aranjo's beautiful body and continued to kiss her beautiful lips.

And when the door opened, their behavior was witnessed by so many pairs of eyes including the God of the night and the Goddess of the wind. The God of the night unleashed magic on Vulcan and instantly the God fell on the floor and was unconscious.

That was the incident that made her stand before this portal and have to pass through 10 lives in the mortal world. Anger and hatred prevail in her heart, she will avenge the injustice in his nature.

As it was about to jump into the portal hole there was a deafening roar of lightning, three strikes. And immediately, Aranjo felt her chest was hot and then touched it and it turned out that the heat came from Griffin's feathers. Aranjo kept Griffin's feathers under her clothes. Griffin, gave his a strand of golden feathers to keep Aranjo from evil spirits. Did Griffin have a lightning disaster? If it's true, then that's good because Griffins can get out of the fog forest.

Aranjo jumped into the portal hole to serve his sentence.

Previously, we went back to the early days of Aranjo's birth and how the demon-blooded Aranjo was trapped in the sky realm.
