Chapter 4: Fate

The woven cloth was piled up like a mountain, but Palomas Blancas' soft hand still had no intention of stopping, if the gods could bleed, the cloths would be red, if the gods could weep, the cloth in her hand will be wet with her tears.

“I consider you as my best friend, the only person who understands me in this vast universe, and you are also the only person who can last forever with me in the nine worlds. If one day you can talk to me, and smile at me, then I will give up everything I have. Why do you forget me so quickly until you can move and smile?” “Stop talking!” Palomas Blancas painfully covered his ears. Why did León de Fuego's voice keep ringing in her ears, making her heart ache forever?

"What happens? Who bothered the most beautiful goddess of the heavens?” A flower-like face with a bright smile appeared before her eyes. It was Diamante, Diamante always used the excuse that his castle was too cold to go to Palomas Blancas' castle and talk to Palomas Blancas. "It's okay, I'm fine, people seem to be begging me for a favor." Palomas Blancas smiled reluctantly. “Begging for what makes you so upset? Maybe a couple who are madly in love?” Diamante sat down beside Palomas Blancas, her face showing sympathy, she lamented: "I can't understand the love story of the human world, people almost always "from life to death unharmed" love”, I have lived in heaven for thousands of years but never thought of dying without hurting my feelings. I want to watch them pass each other every day!” Palomas Blancas smiled and said nothing, she continued to weave, and she thought: “Love? How can someone who has not experienced that wonderful emotion understands that passion and suffering?” "Do you know? The one who struggled the most was Cupido, the last time I went to his castle I found him so sad that his head almost fell to the ground. Hahaha!” Diamante laughed as he pushed Palomas Blancas. “Cupido is the God of Love whose job is to oversee the love affairs of the human world?” "Right! Hey, let's go to his castle to play!" Speaking of which, Diamante was very excited. “No, I still have to weave.” “Stop weaving, you have woven enough fabric for goddesses to wear for hundreds of years.” Diamante snatched the cloth from Palomas Blancas' hand, threw it aside, and flew towards Cupido's palace.

The castle of Cupido, the God of Love, is covered with a magical veil of mist, here there is no moonlight, only the dawn that hasn't changed for a thousand years. Palomas Blancas was about to knock when Diamante opened the door and entered. "Isn't it rude to enter someone else's house without knocking on the door?" Palomas Blancas remembers when she lived in the human world when she came to someone's house, she had to knock on the door. “You think Cupido, who has lived for thousands of years, is angry because you didn't knock? Or do you think Cupido is doing things he doesn't want others to know?" Palomas Blancas nodded in agreement. Yes, in heaven no one noticed these things, and no one can keep a secret from the most powerful gods.

In Cupido's castle, all the walls are made of gold. An old, gentle, bearded god was sitting on a red chair. His hand was holding a very large pen and he was deep in thought.

"Cupido Cupido, what are your difficulties?" Diamante and Palomas Blancas sat down across from him. Cupido did not appear surprised by the sudden appearance of Diamante and Palomas Blancas, but only looked at a notebook and said: "This is difficult, this is difficult for me!" “Is there another couple who can't be together? It seems that only you have the patience to help these people do such meaningless things.” Diamante mocked the old silver-headed god. "Yes, I don't know how to arrange for the three of you, La Luz, Bosque Viejo, Nieve Eterna." Cupid sighed. "Do you have any difficulty?" Unable to hide her curiosity, Palomas Blancas asked, in her simple mind, as long as people who have feelings for each other should let them come together, why make such calculations? “La Luz killed a lot of people, and only lived to be 25 years old, while Bosque Viejo is humble, always does good deeds, and has been close friends with Nieve Eterna since they were children. Right now, these two both love Nieve Eterna, I don't know how to arrange it." “There's no need to think about this, of course, Nieve Eterna's husband is Bosque Viejo. Bosque Viejo lived to be eighty years old, able to bring complete happiness to Nieve Eterna.” Diamante pointed to Bosque Viejo's profile and spoke very emphatically. “I think so too, but in their previous life, Nieve Eterna and La Luz were husband and wife, La Luz died on the battlefield, and Nieve Eterna sacrificed her youth to take care of La Luz's parents and children. Before she died, Nieve Eterna prayed, begged me to be La Luz's wife in the next life." Cupido looked at the three people's fate with a troubled face, in his previous life he let Nieve Eterna live alone, suffering all his life, now he doesn't want her face like that. Palomas Blancas gently said: “If she felt that her previous life was painful, she would not have wanted to be La Luz's wife in her next life. Why don't you let her be satisfied?" “But this life La Luz has committed many crimes. I can't let him torture a gentle, kind girl like Nieve Eterna. Cupido said sadly. "The human world has a lot of adversities, the gods can't fully understand, and no one wants to become a demon to be hated by others, La Luz certainly has a new reason to commit so many crimes. , I believe that La Luz's nature is honest. And whatever the outcome, this path was chosen by Nieve Eterna, she will not regret it." Palomas Blancas said. Cupido sighed, helpless: "I have a headache, I don't know what to do."

Palomas Blancas stood before the gentle spring breeze, the fragrance spreading in front of the castle of the Thunder God Rey de Los Lobos. The Thunder God Rey de Los Lobos was playing chess alone, he was fighting himself, Palomas Blancas approached and said: “I have a question, can I ask you? "Sit down please." Thunder God Rey de Los Lobos nodded. “The fate of mankind is decided by us gods, why would heaven arrange for people with an honest nature to become demons?” “It is not heaven that creates people's fates for the rest of their lives. Every person in life has to suffer brought about by trials, when faced with challenges, which path he wants to follow is entirely up to him. We gods can help them with magic, but we can't change their choices." “All we can do is watch them suffer and do nothing? If we can't do anything then why do we still rule the nine worlds?" The Thunder God Rey de Los Lobos raised his head in amazement, his probing gaze resting on her face for a long time before dropping the piece in his hand: “León de Fuego said that he did it, he created your body, but couldn't give you a soul, but he was wrong, only the soul he created is very gentle and kind." Then, Thunder God Rey de Los Lobos continued: “Do you hate me because I threw you off a rock and broke you?” Palomas Blancas silently shook his head, how foolish it was to attempt to hide the truth from the omniscient gods. "Then why are you still going back to heaven?" “I will not disturb León de Fuego.” She was about to say she wouldn't let León de Fuego know her thoughts, but before she could say anything, the Thunder God Rey de Los Lobos interrupted. “For someone who has trained for over a thousand years like León de Fuego, how long will you keep the truth hidden?” Yes, León de Fuego didn't find out that it was because she didn't dare to say much in front of him, but then he would know if León de Fuego knew, would he suffer? In her mind, León de Fuego said: "If one day you talk to me, smile at me, then I would give up everything." Suddenly her heart trembled.

The Thunder God Rey de Los Lobos cleared the board, walked up to her, and said, “If you want to know why humanity has to go through so much suffering, go down to the human world and observe them. "But voluntarily descending to the human world would violate the rules of heaven." When he first joined the ranks of the gods, Palomas Blancas memorized all the regulations of Heaven. It was true that coming down to the human world would violate the rules of heaven, but coming down to the human world to help them was the responsibility of the gods. Rest assured, the guardian of heaven is León de Fuego.” Thunder God Rey de Los Lobos smiled and walked away.

Palomas Blancas understood very well what the Thunder God Rey de Los Lobos said, each god before leaving heaven must have permission from León de Fuego to be able to leave heaven from heaven's gate, otherwise it will be violated. break the rules of heaven. The guardian of heaven's gate is León de Fuego, if she didn't go through heaven's gate but sneaked down to the human world, he certainly wouldn't let her be punished. León de Fuego, León de Fuego, she whispered his name, a sharp pain in her heart spreading to the tips of her fingers. Human world? After all, what does Rey de Los Lobos want to show her?
