Semua Bab Revenge of the Night: Bab 2411 - Bab 2420

Cassian looked at the woman he loved. The erstwhile Celestial Goddess was now a crone who had seen the worst of the world. "You look older than I am, Penelope. People might think you're my mother." Cassian chuckled, but his eyes were red.It was a joke, but there was sadness inside. Penelope looked at Cassian in silence. She knew her husband had it harder than her. No one could understand the hardships he went through alone. At least Penelope had her sons around her."Don't cry, Cassian. I don't want you to sound so down. We fought and suffered for so long so Faeast could rise to power. So, people like us will never be at the mercy of our enemies. We do this for peace. True peace." Penelope cupped Cassian's head in her hands.A tearful Cassian nodded. He swore that day would come, even if it cost him his life.At the same time, Nox had just sat down, but he was already contacting the Temple of Fire. No response. "Shit. Can the Mystians really be crazy enough to attack them?" Nox fr

Aphrodite settled in at the old place. This was the best sleep she'd had since the last few years. The next morning, Black Tortoise and his motorcade came to pick her up. He wasn't happy picking up an ex-traitor, but Faeast's safety was on the line, and the Great General had no choice."Get in." Black Tortoise picked Aphrodite up, and the motorcade made its way to an underground fortress in Imperia. The top brass of Faeast was already in the conference hall. The governors of the nine states and commanders of the military were waiting online.When Aphrodite showed up, they frowned. Some of these people were forced to submit to her. Some were set up and imprisoned. They were only saved when Nox came back. Some straight up had a grudge against her.Tension was rife in the conference hall, but Aphrodite didn't panic. She took the main seat and scanned everyone. One of the military's representatives couldn't hold back. Then, a general who just became a Legend Realm slammed the table."I

Once the meeting was over, Aphrodite went back to the Greenshades' immediately. She had her breakfast in the car and finished right when she was about to go out. The Greenshades were already waiting for her at the entrance.They praised her for her incredible mind but lamented the fact that she couldn't be together with Nox. Daniel had gotten over what she did to the clan. Even he was forced to kill his own son, and Aphrodite was in the same spot."Daniel." Aphrodite got out of the car and looked at Daniel, her eyes twinkling.Daniel joked, "You look healthy. Even though your name's cursed right now, I can sense that you feel a lot lighter. Your family was a heavier weight than the curse on your name, I wager?""You jest. You too had a weight lifted off your shoulders, didn't you?" Aphrodite asked."Yes. If it weren't for Nox, my father would still be missing. If Faeast is relying on me now, I'd be depressed. Come. Nox and my father are waiting for you."Daniel led Aphrodite all

Penelope mulled over it for a while and said, "This happened when I was still a kid. Rumors claimed that a young man called Griffin fell in love with the eldest daughter of the Girards, a family on the path of the ancient divine. I do not know the details, but I heard the family accepted the outsider."Griffin left the clan, despite their best efforts to keep him around."Nox's eyes shone. "Whoa, that's something. The Girard family is the strongest divine family in the path of the ancient divine. The Celestial Lord is part of that family. To keep their blood pure, they rarely married their people to other divine families, let alone mortals. That's why the enemy faction can't unite even now."That meant they set a precedent of marrying mortals, and the clan didn't punish Griffin. He was something."Aphrodite said, "Yes, talented, I'm sure, but what I want to know is if he's the one I'm looking for.""What?"The trio was stunned. Cassian frowned. "I thought you knew his name.""I

The team was gathered. The people going to Mystia were Aphrodite, Queenie, Nineve, Katherine, Kirin, and Nox. Six people. Cassian and Voltaic would remain at home to hold the fort down."Everyone's here. We should leave now." Nox and his team boarded a military aircraft and flew toward the western part of Faeast. The aircraft landed at what used to be the western domain, but now it was desert as far as the eye could see.They stood in the ruins of an ancient city. A thousand years ago, this place was an oasis. Nox, most of the ancient city was buried underneath the yellow sands. This was where the Temple of Fire came from. There was a formation here that led to Mystia. Through that formation, they could head straight to the Temple of Fire."Odd. The Temple of Fire's guards should be patrolling the ruins, but I don't see anyone here. Even if they're attacked, they shouldn't have gone so far." Nox frowned.The temple's guardians were just regular humans. People of the ruins. Though t
