"Oh! What do we have here? I missed you, my dear niece! I felt a fluctuation of both the power of the sun and the moon, so I figured out that it was you. Haha! You are sending yourself to me of your own volition. Do you think you are still a goddess to do such a fooling thing? Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!" A menacing voice sneered in the distance.

A man with long jet-black hair and gray eyes was sitting on a throne made from skulls and bones in front of me. He sneered like a satisfied predator playing with his prey.

"W-what do you want from me, and what did you do to Ayla?" I trembled despite trying to keep myself calm amidst the fear, confusion, and worry I felt.

I tried to struggle, but the more I did, the more intensely the grip of the ghostly shadows gripped my body. It wriggled all over my body, and I felt extremely terrified and disgusted.

The edge of his lips curled up into a smirk as his eyes lit with amusement. "What do I want from you?" he asked as he chuckled while locking his eyes wi

  • Ari   Chapter 74: Why me?

    I regained consciousness and felt like I was floating underwater, suspended, and not breathing. Wait... I'm not breathing! I tried to scream, but not a single sound came out. It was as if I were surrounded by a cold liquid, making me panic while thinking I might drown. A few moments later, I suddenly realized that I didn't need to breathe at all. I was baffled and couldn't fathom what was happening. I don't need to breathe, but where am I exactly? I couldn't see anything. It's too dark. What exactly is this place? It felt like I was in a lake of darkness and nothingness. Did I really die again? I feel like I am in a deep lake. It was the same feeling before I was reborn into the beastman world. It felt the same as when I was in the Abyssal Lake. It was so frighteningly dark and lonely. I still have so many questions in my mind. Was that really all it was? However, I think this is better than how I died when I was still Kim Arhi Gaumond. I find it funny to say my complete name. I

    "No. Your memories will be wiped out, and you will be born again to a different family. I will make sure to let you be born in a safe environment far from what you have suffered in all these three lives of yours," he answered in a reassuring yet hurt tone. "Is there a way for me to know how my mother on earth is fairing all these years?" I asked, hoping for a positive answer. "You're too caring for your own good," He sighed. "Like father, like daughter. Look ahead of you," he said before pointing to a crystal ball that emerged from the water. Images started to form inside the crystal, showing sets of inaudible footage of what happened after my death on Earth. Everyone was baffled as to why my body was the only one that was not burned from the crash. Everyone who knew me grieved in silence. Even my good-for-nothing boss cried her heart out, like she lost a precious sister she never had. My tears streamed down upon seeing them looking distraught and horrified. I may not have heard wh

    I tried to run, but it felt like the faster I ran, the slower I moved forward. I was shocked upon realizing that it wouldn't be easy to pass through the bridge. I was so stupid to not remember that the Bridge of Trial He was talking about was the same Bridge of Trial that a god or goddess goes through before their awakening. Was this a scam? Was I tricked by the Supreme Being? I panicked, so I tried to run in irritation. However, the more irritated I was, the more the invincible force tried to stop me from moving further. I suddenly felt like there were ghostly shadows grabbing my feet, restraining my movement even more. I was panicking. My instinct was telling me to move forward, but how can I even move forward? I cried and trembled in fear as my anxiety took its toll on me. I suddenly heard the hallucinatory voices of Sephtis. I knew it wasn't real because he wouldn't be able to enter this place without the permission of the Supreme Being. "Arie, what were you trying so hard fo

    Lowell's POV I woke up because someone was pulling my foot to move me somewhere. I even hit my head on a small bump on the ground. "Ouch!" I complained as I jolted due to pain. I saw Dillon pulling me away with a devastated look on his face. He didn't even see me awaken, so I struggled to escape from his grasp. Then, I turned around to face the ground while pulling my foot forcefully. I was suddenly stunned upon seeing Ari inside a transparent shell. I was terrified upon remembering what had happened last night. I trembled and tried to run towards Ari, but Dillon pulled my foot forcefully. He looked exasperated and distressed. "Dillon! Let go!" I growled at him furiously. He suddenly let go of me upon seeing Orson's terrified face. "ARI!!!" Orson roared in devastation. His roar echoed around the village, waking up all the fainting villagers. Dillon ran towards him, so I followed. He was about to lose control. Orson cried and tried to struggle while we were restraining him. Eve

    I woke up seeing the flustered look on Lowell's face as he shoved Macan's face on the ground. He was instinctively preventing him from looking at my body. Tora couldn't utter a word and tumbled to the ground out of surprise. She cried silently at the sight of me descending in front of them. I felt relieved that Tora and Macan were safe, so I was expecting that Nyala was also safe. I greeted Lowell, who was blushing while trying hard to look away from me. He didn't respond as if he were ignoring me, but his face was bright red due to embarrassment. I saw him lightly open his mouth as if he were about to say something, but not a single word came out. He ended up clenching his jaw as he shut his eyes to face me. I suddenly realized that my hair had become too long. I looked like the princess that was held captive upon realizing that I was naked. For some reason, I didn't feel embarrassed and tried to approach Lowell. Tora stood up, pulling her brother away in an instant. "I'll get y

    "You grew up quite a lot in just a month. Are you uncomfortable with your hair?" my brother asked as he took me in his arms."Yes, Brother. It's quite annoying because it's heavy," I answered as I wrapped my arms around his neck while resting my chin on his shoulder."But... We can't cut it here. Let's go back to your room first. Gurion is excitedly waiting for you," he grinned enthusiastically."Don't worry, Ari. I'll lift your hair for you so that you can rest on the way. Your room is quite far from here," Dillon offered kindly."I will go ahead and mend Ari's clothes so they can fit her again," Tora said before dashing away.It's so amusing to see Tora being overactive. There might have been some good news that I am not aware of. I'll have to ask her when I have a chance.Lowell followed quietly from behind as my brother started walking.I was surprised to see Jael, Aja, and Nyala in front of the central hall when we stepped out of the door."Dear goddess, we owe you our lives.

    "No. Rather, it sounded more enticing, but I am finding it hard to resist my urge. I want to... Urgh! Never mind... I understand now why Lowell suddenly lost his control like that a while ago. Tsk! The scent of the Wolf stinks!" he complained while rubbing his face on my neck before licking it as if he were cleaning it using his tongue. "No, he's not! Your scents are both equally refreshing. Also, Lowell cleanses his body fairly well. He is actually a clean freak despite being a Wolf. He also takes a bath every day using the oils and potions that he was making for me just to test if it is safe before handing it over to me." I disagreed while giggling at his jealous tone as I turned my back against him. "Ugh! Are you seriously provoking me right now?" he whispered in my ears upon pulling my waist firmly with both hands. He suddenly pushed me onto the bed, causing me to crawl back in surprise. He caught my arm to prevent me from crawling back any further. I was confused and quite ner

  • Ari   Chapter 81: What was Macan Thinking?

    He mumbled in hesitation, trembling as if he was about to cry, "A-Ari, I—never mind, go ahead. My sister is already waiting for you inside." I responded in a low voice, "Hmm. Let's talk about it when you're ready, okay?" He squeezed my hand before letting go. I turned around despite my hesitation and curiosity. I can't force him to speak up if he's not even ready to open up. I was just happy that he was already cured of his illness. I didn't know that my power could heal their existing illness. I only took a quick bath and changed my clothes with Tora's help. I was still perplexed as to what Macan was thinking, but he was too busy cleaning up to talk about it. He was used to keeping everything in because he was unable to communicate for a long time. After refreshing, I realized it was past noon, so they probably had their lunch. I wanted to eat with them, but my stomach was already grumbling from hunger—I wouldn't be able to wait until dinner time. Just right after we managed to g

    I tried not to laugh when I saw Macan's annoyed look. On the other hand, Tora and Jala were giggling while giving the babies to Dillon and Dylan. They just finished feeding my babies. They then pushed the two stunned and clueless males near me. "Let Ari see her children. Come on! Stop dazing around," Tora nagged as she pushed Dillon. "Honey," Dillon mumbled while handing over one of my lovely babies. "Hmm? She's—wait, no—it's a boy? Aw!" I choked as I coughed in shock, then crouched a little due to the pain. "What, babe? First time seeing a baby boy?" Macan teased. "Well, technically, yes," I replied embarrassedly. "Oh, right. I forgot," Macan whispered, looking away lightly. "How will we know who's their father? They looked extremely alike," I asked. "The female is my daughter...," Dylan said. "Right, and the male is my son," Dillon added. I was stunned and mumbled, "How did you know?" "My mark disappeared when she came out crying loudly across the room. She was quite energ

  • Ari   Chapter 124: Birth of Twins

    A few months later, my stomach kept growing, and everyone was mortified to see a huge stomach. I was embarrassed because female beastmen don't grow their stomachs too much like mine, so I stayed in the room behind the throne and patiently waited until I could give birth to the twins. The twins were so active inside my stomach that I sometimes couldn't hold back my pee, so I had to wear padding on my undergarments. Also, the weight of my stomach was so heavy that it was too hard to move around, let alone walk. We could see my stomach move from time to time. It was surprising at first that Tora screamed in shock. It looked amusing to me since it meant they were healthy. One day, when the autumn was almost over, I suddenly felt a series of stomach pains. Macan explained that it was because it was almost time for me to give birth. The pain was bearable at first because it was similar to the pain I had when I had my period, but it suddenly started to worsen, and I was finding it hard to

  • Ari   Chapter 123: Portal to Dylan's Palace

    I successfully opened the portal without receiving any penalty. I figured it would be like this because my power has the same attribute as the barrier, making me conclude it was created by my parents since the two of them can control lightning. "Honey! Why are you so reckless?" Dillon roared in nervousness. "Are you alright?" Macan dashed to check on my condition. "Yep! I knew it. The barrier won't retaliate against my power because I can also control lightning," I grinned. "God! Babe! You scared all of us! You should have explained to us first before doing something potentially dangerous," he scolded. "Sorry... It's because you won't allow me even if I explain it, since I wasn't sure of it either. It's better to show it straight in front of everyone. First of all, Mother said I could use it to open a portal everywhere in the mortal land where my people are located. Gurion is one of us, so it's easier to open a portal since he lives in the palace," I explained. "It's still risky,

    After dinner was served in my room, the servants also gave me a box containing a necklace. They said it was from my mom."But do I still need this even if I'm already pregnant?" I asked curiously."Yes, Your Highness. It's not only a suppressant of heat and scent. It can help you use the ring without using your power. The necklace will also bring you back here if you suddenly have a sudden fluctuation of power," the servant explained."I see. It would be quite convenient. Send my gratitude to my mother. I couldn't go to her right now because I'm feeling under the weather, but I'll meet her tomorrow before we all leave," I instructed."Yes, Your Highness," she answered before she left my room.******************************The next morning, we had breakfast with my parents for the last time. We decided to go back after the meal. They were both emotional, but they didn't change their minds despite the heartbreaking goodbye."Are you sure about this?" my mother asked."Yes, Mom," I repli

    All the males came back later than we'd anticipated. They were all extremely intoxicated, except my brother. "Oh my god! What the hell happened to all of you?" I gasped in shock. "Dear... You stink! Don't go near Nita. You'll hurt her nose," Tora scolded my brother as she pushed him away. "Aww! Do I?" he asked, sniffing himself. "Yes, Brother. What kind of hazing did you all go through?" I blurted while laughing at all my unconscious spouses lying on the floor. The servants had a lot of trouble bringing them all back to my room. "Hazing? What is that?" my brother asked. "Never mind. Go take a shower and bring Tora and Nita into your room. It reeks of alcohol in my room. I'll handle these punks," I instructed. "Will you be alright, Ari?" Tora asked worriedly. "Yes. Come on! Make haste. Nita has a sensitive nose; she'd get suffocated with this kind of strong scent," I insisted as I looked at Nita's disgusted reaction. "But Ar—" she mumbled as I pushed them out of my room. "Hur

    The next morning, I decided to ask my parents for a favor. "Mother, Father, I want to tell you something in private," I said after I finished eating breakfast. "I see. Let's wait for everyone to finish their meal. I'll have the servants and guards move out of the room," my mother replied, smiling while holding my hand for reassurance. "Thanks, Mother." I smiled as I lifted her hand and placed it on my face, rubbing my cheek against her palm. After everyone had finished eating, my father gave Nita back to my brother, and I told everyone, "Please go ahead without me. I want to have a conversation with my parents." They all nodded in agreement and did what was told to them. After everyone left the room, my mother started to ask worriedly, "Is there something wrong, my dear?" "Mother, Father, may I live in the mortal land as a regular female beastman?" I asked. Their faces darkened with sadness. "You don't want to be with us?" my mother asked while weeping. "I... I'm sorry, Mothe

    The other Immortals performed their skills to entertain the guests in between meals as part of the celebration. It was fun since Nirvana rarely held a feast, but it was also exhausting because it lasted until dinner time. "Son, I've prepared a room for your family near Arie's room. I've also asked the servants to prepare the bath and new sets of clothing to change. Go ahead and have your wife and daughter take an early rest. I bet they're tired from the whole day of celebration," my father said to my brother. "Thank you, Father," my brother replied while hugging him briefly before following his instruction. "Mother, Father, may we go ahead to my room? I feel quite exhausted and sleepy," I asked. "Sure, my dearest! Take an early rest. The servants have already prepared your baths. But will your spouses be staying in your room? Would you like me to have them bring some extra blankets and pillows?" my mother asked. "Yes, please, Mother. Thank you and goodnight!" I replied in gratitud

  • Ari   Chapter 118: Feast in Nirvana

    The news about my pregnancy made my mood lighter and distracted me for a bit. It was nice seeing the people dearest to me in times of grief. I couldn't utter a single word about what happened during the battle. I couldn't bring up the topic because it hurts my heart to think about the sacrifice of my sister. Luckily, there was other news that could keep them busy for a while. "Wait... Who's this little cutie?" I asked as I crawled near my brother to see closer. Her brown eyes and hair were similar to my brother's. "She's Nita; she hatched a few days ago." Tora grinned. "Aw! I want a mini version of Tora, but she's cute. She looked exactly like Brother Orson when he was small," I mumbled. "Right?! She's so adorable!" Tora beamed as she hugged me tightly. "Don't put your weight on Ahri," Macan warned as he pulled Tora away. "You're so stingy, brother! Hmph!" Tora complained. I chuckled at her cute reaction. Dillon sat beside me, stroking my hair with a relieved expression. "Hone

    I was relieved to meet the Supreme God in my dream. I felt like my chest became lighter, though I'm still grieving. I accepted and faced reality faster with his help. "My dear, welcome back! How was your talk with Father?" my mother asked in a calm and warm tone. "He should have let her rest first before summoning her," my father sighed in a low voice. "You're right, but I believe He's just worried about her. She's His beloved granddaughter after all," she replied with a saddened tone despite her smile. "My dear, are you still tired? Are you hungry? Would you like some water?" Dylan asked with worry. "I'm well rested, and I don't feel hungry as of the moment." I chuckled and smiled miserably with teary eyes. "My dear..." he mumbled in worry. "I'm all right because she'll be alright somewhere. I just need a little more time," I responded with tears in my eyes. My parents also cried and hugged me, trying to console me without uttering a word. We were all equally hurt since we lov
