Another week quickly passed.
The capital was as busy as usual. There was almost no difference between night and day, especially at every city center. Those places never seemed to lack people. Even at wee hours, people could be seen loitering the streets. Or if they were at home, not everyone was asleep, especially the youngsters who loved to

...When the night seemed to have drawn its curtain to Ley, having had a serious talk with the suicidal man at the bridge, he discovered that there were actually some more troubles brewing elsewhere. When Ley was about to cross the gate of Ephesian Garden, he received a call from Nathan. For some reason, the man wanted permission to bring home his lover. "..." The first time he heard that, naturally, question marks floated above his head.According to the person, this lover had been with him long ago and they recently broke up due to a misunderstanding. But now they were back. Listening to the words of his ‘employed believer’, Ley felt a bit puzzled. There was no name mentioned yet. The problem was that Nathan who was usually a no-nonsense type and a bit thrifty in words suddenly became a long-winded man. Yet now that this person was willing to explain, he was doing it something quite illogical. Who the hell phoned their employers for something like this? Ley naturally felt tha

...Nathan did not even bother to remember to request a room change. He was very tired upon getting back, the exhaustion of his mind more prevalent than the exhaustion of his body. Then the next day came. His editor Lucy video called him to report to him that she managed to push through the majority of his short stories into another horror collection series. The good news made him smile for a while and he sincerely thanked Lucy for her effort. He was happy since the royalties from published paperbacks were higher than what he was getting from online publishers. The larger his part in a collection, the larger his share too. After all, the online market was just really not into horror, but romance and fantasy. As part of a routine, the woman wanted to invite him out to celebrate. Sadly, Nathan was in no mood to pop champagne anywhere five steps away from the Hevel Residence. He could only refuse. After the call, the doorbell rang. Since he was the one in the living room and the oth

...“They said deities are actually born in one of the eastern island nations…”"Hmm? There are still places in this modern world that can give birth to deities?"“Well. I also found it weird. I thought all deities that should be born are already born. The mortals of the world has become too materialistic.” "I thought it's only the still pure-hearted animals and plants can have a chance of producing new Anitos. Are the newborns some sort of animal or plant symbol?"“No.” "No? You said they are mortals." “Humans.”"..." Two voices spoke to each other in the void. The place could not contain their majestic and regal self, but their voices conveyed some of it. Had there been anybody around to hear them, they would have gotten lost in a trance, or shivering from the unconditional fear that would engulf their entire body. Deities. They had always been beings of incomparable mightiness on earth. Especially ones like them who were merely a step away from ascension. The two were separ

The Ascension Chapter 153: Actual Cause
"Once upon a time, it was known that the God of Fire, who was one of the oldest Anitos in the Skyworld, hated the Devils so much because these creatures' ruler, and if one might say, the greatest ruler in history, had killed his beloved wife, a demi-god who used to hold the Law of Harvest."A voice echoed in a small dark room that was being occupied by two people. Two men. One wearing a red cloak that appeared to be burning and flowing at the same time, like lava. The other was wearing a pure white knight garment that seemed to be from the medieval times. The face of the former was hidden by his cloak plus he was bowing a little so his features were not visible. As for the other, the knight appeared to be not afraid to be recognize hence he did not even wear a mask to this meeting. He had blonde hair and brown eyes, and fairly handsome. However, that face of his was not what people who knew a little about history would notice, but the insignia on his breastplate, a symb
The Ascension Chapter 152: A Visiting Knight
The Goddess actually had no use for the weak anito called Ley. Yet at the same time, she was not one to back out from her words. Although she sometimes do not play by Heaven's rule, she was one to demand equivalent exchange when needed. In other words, she was one who always upheld fairness.Her vow from almost a year ago was only to protect and provide guidance for Ley, the unknowing human whose fate had been severed completely from the Underworld due to her bet with Mayari. The young human forever lost the chance to reincarnate so as compensation, she used one of her quotas in ascending a being to godhood as compensation. She did the same to the old man who had been dragged to the mess. Of course, another questionable karma that she gained for doing these was causing Ley and Fernando to be rejected by the natural Laws since they did not become anitos through their own efforts. As another compensation, She decided to leave one of her mortal vessels there to act as thei
The Ascension Chapter 151: Condition
"Welcome back, Your Highness." Loud and clear, the voices of everyone else in the place echoed at the same time."We're most gladdened to be in Your Highness' presence again." They chorused.Ley slowly lifted his gaze up and saw that the person they greeted matched the appearance that was in his memories.A body of a girl in her late teens. Black hair that reached past her waist. Lean figure that was almost as skinny as some models in regular fashion shows. A face that was certainly above average, but not that excessive as to make one feel that she was the most beautiful in the world.Hana's figure appeared right above the statue depicting the Goddess of the Sun, a statue of a beautiful woman in a flowing dress crowned with a tiara shaped like the rays of the sun. The statue was massive and was in a giving pose, with her hands stretched outwards like it was offering the sun to the world. Hana appeared in those stretched out palms.
The Ascension Chapter 150: The Request
Time passed. In the mortal realm, a week had already gone by.Ley and Baram who had come to the western side of the globe to meet the Goddess was met with utmost care in their reception there. Ley had a hunch that the Goddess predicted that he would come here, either to give thanks or ask for Fernando's location so She left a message to the ones in the Blood Lake Castle to welcome them in.However, like Fernando who was made to wait for the Underworld god, they too, were made to wait for the return of the Goddess as she had long left before they arrived and the servants left there had no idea when she would drop by. These all brought endless frustrations to Ley. Yet he was not one with a close mind. He knew that the affairs of somebody high up like Hanan was not something that normal deities like him could imagine. Not to mention that Baram and the others in the castle already explained how serious of a matter an attempted Devil Sacrifice was.
The Ascension Chapter 149: Their First Meeting
"Home, huh?" The werehorse anito servicing under the Chief Deity of the Underworld, Sitan, was a bit absentminded as he recalled the conversation he just had with the human anito brought to the palace by his god. A few hours already passed since then. The werehorse anito had also just finished his duties and made sure that the entire palace was spotlessly clean and organize.The person he just spoke to was just a weak old human who possessed the Gift to command animals which was not really impressive as there were a few already who had the same ability, not to mention, those who hailed from the animal species had better control of those they could command.Nothing was interesting about the old human anito. Although he was silent about it, as he was one who was loyal to the Chief Deity and was extremely conscious not to question the deity's words, in his heart, he was actually wondering why His Highness became interested in Fernando to the point that he personally
The Ascension Chapter 148: Longing For Home
While the two immediately set off for another country, they had no idea that the very reason that they were doing so was not really in danger, unlike what they had been assuming all this time.Fernando was just really teleported to another place so that a proper conversation could take place between them without interruption. He was in good condition and was even invited to the best and grandest place in the Underworld, the Palace of Soul owned by none other than His Highness Sitan himself.As for the reason why? Who knows.The old man did not ask. After discovering the identity of the other, he became very silent, and careful with his words. Or rather, he would not dare ask the man his real purpose for doing this since like Ley to the presence of the angel, Fernando immediately became cautious and conscious of his own status as he had learned that the person was not merely a strong anito, but an actual Underworld god.'What are th
The Ascension Chapter 147: The Desire For Freedom
No fight actually took place. That was what Ley had heard from the Tree Deity. However, it was already said earlier. The person could forcefully teleport somebody over to another dimension or realm without leaving a trace that even he, Ley, the Road Deity, could peer into. This revealed that the abductor was of higher power level than him. Baram too said that he did not really dare to get close to the place as the man's aura was simply really intimidating. Oh, not really intimidating. But aloof, yet majestic. It reminded him of the lions that sometimes crossed his territory. The loftiness that was exuded by the man was intense, it could make others subconsciously bow to him.'What kind of being is that?'Ley could not help but wonder this after hearing all the flashy descriptions.His thoughts, that time, were very obvious.But to be fair, Baram himself could not believe that he felt like that towards a fellow Anito.After t
The Ascension Chapter 146: When It Is Broken
What was Sam looking for? Why was he sporting such a stressed expression?Ley stood a few meters behind Sam and noticed that the person's mouth was moving, yet no sound was reverberating in the place.Tilting his head sideward, Ley finally called him out, "Sam?"The butler was visibly startled, which showed on his face when he turned around and met Ley's gaze. "Young Master!" He shouted.However, no sound reached Ley's ears.It turned out that while Sam could hear Ley's footsteps and voice, the latter could not. Confusion flickered in Ley's eyes. This was a fact he realized after watching the movements of the butler's lips, which obviously mouthed his usual honorifics of him.Then when Sam dashed towards him, that was when he noticed that there was something different with the place around the butler. The butler managed to pass through him. Also, although subtle and almost unnoticeable, the area looked like a di
The Ascension Chapter 145: No Path
As a butler, Sam' service to House Hevel was extremely short and not worthy of a mention. Not even a year. However, since birth, he had been an extremely devout of the Three Goddesses, patrons of Island Ophir. Born to a fairly big clan in the village, one that had a history of producing elders and chiefs, he was one of the lucky ones given the qualifications to enter the palace at the summit of the mountain. But it took him several years to be promoted from a mere servant boy to an actual authority amongst servants, which he did through wits and perseverance, and he was very proud of what he had achieved.His clan's rule, or more like, motto was this, 'Always, for the Three Celestial Goddesses'.No matter how empty and cheerless the palace was, it would always be his joy to tend to it as a form of obeisance to the beloved Goddesses.What were his thoughts when he was suddenly assigned to serve three Anitos that had seemingly popped out of nowhere?W
