Chapter 132. Do You Promise Not to be Angry with Me?
In the Underworld,
In front of a room, there were five large black dogs. They seemed to be on alert, as if they were afraid that something would happen to the room occupant, who was still inside. The atmosphere around there was tranquil because no immortal god or goddess had been seen passing by, but this moment did not make any of them careless.
“Datzha, do you regret turning into a dog permanently?”
The owner of the name turned around. It turned out that the question came from a man who was two meters tall. The five dogs bowed as if paying respect to the Ruler of the Underworld. When it was over, Datzha decided to answer Nyx’s eldest brother. “No, Lord Havento. I do not regret the decision I have made.”
A guy with a scary aura fell silent for a moment. “What has Goddess Atvertha done that makes you and your four friends willing to make a sacrifice? You cannot be reborn in the Earth because you have chosen this form, and you know that very well, don’t you?”
“Goddess Atvertha has promised our pack if there was an emergency, we could ask for her help by howling. Because we are already dead, I came through a dream and succeeded. She was the first immortal goddess who cared about the fate of the wolf pack, while other gods and goddesses were not like that. For reincarnation, we do not mind having to stay in dog form forever because the safety of the Moon Goddess is much more important.”
The big dog’s honest answer made the man who always lived in the Underworld think. I was amazed by the loyalty of these dogs. They really help Atvertha sincerely. No wonder she appointed them as her pet companions. What is that girl doing, huh? I want to ask about the fulfilment of the promise to bless Hertinoz, thought Havento as he stared at the door, which was still tightly closed, and there was no sign of it being opened from the inside.
The three hundred and ten-year-old man turned back to the five large dogs. “Did Goddess Atvertha leave the room, or was she still staying there?”
“The Moon Goddess has not left the room at all, Lord Havento.” One of the dogs gave information to the immortal god.
The burly man nodded and said, “Thank you.”
The first son of the couple, God Hetzh-the Lord of Darkness and the Goddess Aymenth-the Lord of Sorrow looked again at the same object, then walked towards it. The five dogs watched Lord Havento’s movements without speaking at all. When he arrived at the door, the man dressed all in black said to Atvertha’s pet companion, without looking back, “I am going to meet the Moon Goddess. If anyone asks about me, just say that I am inside. If anyone wants to come in, do not forget to state the name and what his/her needs are.”This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Yes, Lord Havento.” The five dogs responded simultaneously.
That guy knocked on the door, which surprised the silver-haired woman. She spontaneously turned towards the source of the sound and wondered who was behind the door. “Who is that?” Atvertha asked in a slightly loud voice.
When Havento heard the voice of the girl he loved, happiness emerged within him. However, he did not appear openly because he realized that he was still being watched by the five big dogs. “It is me, Atvertha,” answered the young man, who still had a flat expression.
“Come in, Havento!” As soon as possible, the door opened so the man could freely enter there. When the handsome man was in the same room, that door closed automatically, making the atmosphere quiet again, and the five big dogs returned to guard while observing the surroundings.
A man who was not good at expressing his feelings looked at the opposite sex and then walked closer to the target. When he arrived near Atvertha, Havento sat in a chair not far from the only daughter of the couple, Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia. That young lady was still sitting on the bed, holding a silver-covered book, which aroused his curiosity.
“What is that?” Havento asked, gesturing with head movements.
“This is my book, and the name is the Book of Destiny,” answered Goddess Atvertha, then raised the object in her left hand.
A man with a baritone voice frowned as if he felt strange about the answer given by the slender woman. Atvertha put the book on her lap and then watched Hertinoz’s good friend with an expressionless expression. “What kind of book is that? I have never heard of the Book of Destiny. How could you get it?”
“This book is a magickal thing created by Lord Bathzukrah. I got it when I went to the Heavenly Library. This book can only be found and owned by a chosen immortal god or goddess.” Atvertha tried to remember the information that Toghnath had given, even though she was unsure. The feelings of annoyance with the playboy had disappeared but suddenly returned, and she chose to ignore it.
The cold-faced man nodded. Suddenly, Havento remembered the original purpose and purpose of coming there, so, without further ado, the young man had to convey it before he forgot it. “Interesting. Thanks for the info. I would like to ask, when will you bless Hertinoz? Are you ready for it to be done tomorrow, or are there other obstacles?”
A woman with a sharp nose suddenly remembered the conversation she had with her father. “I could bless Hertinoz, but my power is still partially locked up by my parents because I have not received forgiveness from Dad. He even set conditions that I find difficult to fulfill. Will that be a problem for you?”
The black-haired man was silent, but he continued to stare at Atvertha’s face. That thin-browed girl waited for the other person’s comment. “I guess it does not matter. But, if you doubt it, then would you like to discuss this matter with Nyx? I would ask her to come so both of you can have a deep conversation.”
The pretty girl tried to digest every word Havento said so she did not see the person she was talking to. Meanwhile, the man who rarely smiled could only oversee Atvertha’s expression as if he did not feel bored at all. The virgin turned to Havento, so this action shocked the guy, even if only for a moment. “If you ask Nyx to come here again, will she not be angry?”
“No. Nyx will not be angry. I guarantee it.” The guy who had two three-headed dogs gave a promise so that the immortal goddess was relieved, but the girl remained silent. Meanwhile, Havento really wanted to linger in the room, but he was confused about what else to talk about and took the same attitude as the opposite sex.
The atmosphere in the place became quiet again because the conversation between the two immortals had stopped. I do need Nyx’s advice. She is annoying, but at least she never sugar-coated her words. It is impossible for me to bless Hertinoz when my magick power is still partially locked. Damn! What were Mom and Dad thinking when they did that stupid thing? They really trouble me! Atvertha grumbled in her heart so Havento could not hear all her complaints.
“Atvertha,” Havento called the guest’s name, but the girl was still in the same position. Armen Faustus Lugthna’s future wife did not seem to hear the host’s words, so that man thought about repeating the same action.
“Atvertha.” This time, the young man’s actions paid off because the Crossroads Lady turned to him.
“Yes, Havento? Did you call me?” Havento’s words really broke her concentration. However, Atvertha was curious about the god she was talking to and what the quiet man wanted to say.
“Do you want to meet Nyx now?” Apart from talking about her third sister, Havento needed to figure out what to do, which often annoyed him. Atvertha had not refused, but she also did not agree to the idea because she felt uncomfortable with the Lord of the Underworld, who had helped her so much.
“Is that okay? Should she not be resting? She will get angry if she is disturbed.” Atvertha did not want a fight to break out between them, so the virgin felt it was better to ask her eldest brother directly, who had offered to help her.
“Yeah. That is absolutely okay. I told you earlier, I can guarantee that. Why are you even afraid?” A man who needed to improve flirting questioned the girl’s doubts, and Atvertha needed clarification about answering Havento’s question.
“I do not know when you and Nyx’s are active. Besides that, I am here as a guest, so I can’t do whatever I want.” Atvertha answered Havento’s question, so the man shook his head.
“If you have a problem but instead keep quiet, will your problem be solved? No, Atvertha. You need someone to exchange ideas with. If you feel reluctant to talk to Nyx, why do you not tell me? I am here and will listen to your problem.” Havento was surprised because he quickly talked to the girl, but it was challenging to express his feelings.
The pink-lipped woman thought back to her conversation with her father, in which Lord Helion mentioned the name of the God of the Underworld as a potential husband candidate. Atvertha did not dare to look at Havento’s face, so the young man became even more curious.
I can’t tell that guy that Dad actually supports me marrying Havento or Hertinoz rather than marrying my man. If I mentioned this problem to Nyx, she would definitely blame me, but she was sincere, even though sometimes the opinions given were subjective, thought Atvertha, who was hesitant to take that action.
After being silent for two minutes, the young lady finally had the courage to tell Havento her problem. “Do you promise not to be angry with me?”
“Why do you even ask that?” Havento was suspicious, but he did not know what caused him to act like that.
“I… you might be offended because my problem has to do with my father’s requirements. He… asked two questions, but there were also other suggestions, which might make you uncomfortable.” A girl, who had a height of one hundred and seventy-five centimeters, hesitated to continue speaking, but she still had to say it because it was difficult to back down.
That burly man stared at Atvertha sharply, making the girl feel uncomfortable. However, Havento did not know what the opposite sex was feeling because the girl’s face he saw was always the same, namely expressionless. “Try me.” That was all Havento said.
“So, I met Dad earlier. But Dad-”
