The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

Three hours and twenty-five minutes later,Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

An immortal husband and wife were seen in a room, specifically in the room of their only daughter, whose whereabouts were still unknown to them. A blue-eyed man looked at his wife in annoyance, but she was still silent, as if something was preventing her from acting more. Meanwhile, the palace owner had been looking at the door, which was wide open, as if he was waiting for someone to arrive.

In that place, there was a young man with amber eyes, and he looked very restless. He glanced around the room, even though there was nothing else there. The atmosphere in that place felt awkward, plus none of the two immortal gods and a goddess had initiated a conversation between them.

Damn! Why did Atvertha disappear when we were about to get married? She was such an annoying girl! I suspected that she was hiding somewhere, but where was she? I am sure there was an immortal god who was also helping, but I do not know who was the suspect. Fuck it! Could it be that my future wife had planned to marry that damn mortal on Earth at night, so Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia were not aware? The God of War was in deep thought, and he was furious but could not express it openly.

Not long after, a man came wearing a guard uniform, but this one was different because there was a double stripe on his left shoulder, as if to show that he had a rank. The short-haired man knocked on the door, although it was wide open. Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia saw the man coming, so the Ruler of the Seas said to him, “Come in!”

“Yes, my Lord.” The athletic man entered, and when he was near Atvertha’s parents, he paid his respects by bowing to them as soon as possible.

“How is Tenzior? Have you found anything?” The four-hundred-and-forty-year-old man asked the man standing in front of him.

“I have searched around the palace and have coordinated with the guards spread across many locations in the Upper World. They stated that no one had seen the Goddess Atvertha, either in the morning or at night, My Lord.” A man with a sharp nose answered so honestly that Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia lost their spirits. However, the man holding the trident in his right hand kept trying to find a gap, and who knows if his daughter might be found.

“Have you contacted security at the Heavenly Library?” Lord Helion asked again because he suddenly remembered that place because his daughter had gone there, and the immortal god who invited her to go was Toghnath, his future son-in-law. Without further ado, a young guy who failed to get married turned to Goddess Avtexia’s husband because he heard the name of the location that had been the destination for a date with the opposite sex but suddenly disappeared.

“Yes, My Lord. I have contacted them, and Mr Dezranth said that for one week, starting from last week until today, there was no data registration in the name of Goddess Atvertha, even though her appearance was nil.” That grey-eyed man answered as was, according to the data he obtained.

“Have you asked the guards of the immortal gods and goddesses at each palace? I have given you special permission, and they should help.” A man who could cause heavy rain and storms did not forget to mention another place where the virgin goddess could have gone, even though the possibility was minimal.

“I have received information from them that the Goddess never appeared there. They even sent data on the names of guests who had visited and those who made appointments. I did not find Goddess Atvertha among the data provided, My Lord.” Tenzior must convey the news he received, even though it caused disappointment to Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia.

“I can’t believe this can happen! Atvertha has been hiding somewhere, but we can’t find her anywhere! This is absolutely impossible! I am sure there must be an immortal god’s intervention. No. It could not be one, but maybe more than two immortal gods were helping escape.” The blue-eyed woman finally spoke because she found many irregularities in the bodyguard’s report to her husband.

“I also think the same thing, darling. But we also do not know who the immortal gods were who helped our daughter, so now we can’t accuse anyone, especially since there was no evidence or eyewitnesses.” A man who had accompanied the Sun Goddess for hundreds of years responded to his wife’s words. Goddess Avtexia snorted because what Lord Helion had just said was true.

“I am sure that Nyx was lying. Only she was able to open the seal on the room but deliberately covered up the truth.” A woman who hated darkness still accused her daughter’s friend because she had not found a potential suspect who fit her prejudices.

“Honey, do not just talk nonsense. The Nyx family are the Rulers of the Underworld. Moreover, her husband is the Death God. They are free from death, and I am sure that she was not lying.” The wise man tried to calm the other person. He did not want them to have anything to do with the family of God Hetzh – the Lord of Darkness, and Goddess Aymenth – the Lord of Sorrow, especially with their children.

“You are defending them, Hubby!” The four-hundred-and-twenty-year-old woman was annoyed, but the opposite sex ignored her.

“I am not defending. If Nyx were lying, then she would always dodge or take a long time to answer questions. I could feel the lies from our people, even though from their sound. There was no in-between. She answered all my questions quickly, and all the answers given were always stable.” A man with a long beard remained confident in his decision, so he rejected the opinion that his lovely lady was too objective.

“What if Atvertha had indeed collaborated with many gods or goddesses, but they deliberately used a potent spell so that their hiding location could not be detected?” The young guy, who had a height of one hundred and ninety-five centimetres, gave his opinion, so the husband and wife turned to look at him.

“I think like that, but like I said, if there was no evidence nor an eye witness, then it is the same as slander. You know by yourself how serious the punishment from the Great God Council is if a god or a goddess is proven to have committed that act.” A man with dark brown eyes expressed his gaze so that Toghnath fell silent as if he was thinking about something.

“How about Havento? He is Nyx’s older brother and has a big hand. That man can be suspected.” Goddess Avtexia did not yet have the two requirements that her husband had stated, namely evidence and eyewitnesses. However, she still did not want to give up because, in her mind, only the Underworld Gods and Goddesses could do that.

“It is impossible, Goddess Avtexia. Lord Havento had nothing to do with Nyx’s friends, nor did he want to interfere in his younger siblings’ affairs. He rarely associated with immortal gods or goddesses, even with his own family, and his only friend was Hertinoz, the God of Communication. I have never heard rumours that Atvertha and he are friends.” That handsome man revealed the news he got and, of course, from trusted sources.

The slim woman fell silent again. She believed his future son-in-law’s statement, so she erased the name of the Lord of the Underworld from her mind as soon as possible. Lord Helion, who heard his wife’s conversation with Toghnath, started to turn towards the door, and the silver-haired man was surprised because he still found Tenzior there. “You may go. Keep looking for Goddess Atvertha and report to me every hour.”

“Yes, my lord.” The young guy paid his respects again, then quickly left there. The room was quiet again because Lord Helion, Goddess Avtexia, and Toghnath were busy with their own thoughts.

In the midst of the silence, the playboy god had an idea that had occurred to him, and he wanted to say it to the husband and wife immediately. “Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia, can you listen to my suggestion?”

Atvertha’s parents looked at the person they were talking to, and they nodded spontaneously, which made the young man happy and relieved. “Go on, Toghnath. We would like to hear your ideas.” The palace owner invited the guest to convey the ideas he had.

“In the next few hours, there will still be no information about Atvertha’s hiding place. What if we just go down to Earth, to that bloody mortal male’s house, to be precise? But not during the day, because Atvertha will definitely be hiding herself because she knows if she is being searched in all directions. It is better to do this at night when the Earth is dark. I am sure she will come there.” Toghnath was sure that the girl he admired would still come because there was Armen, a mortal guy she really loved.

“I agree with you, Toghnath. If that is the case, we can kill them all immediately, so there will not be any more trouble. As long as that bloody mortal guy and all his tribe members are still alive, Atvertha will always be hanging on there.” Goddess Avtexia accepted the man’s suggestion without further ado, while Lord Helion did not respond. She was still thinking about all the words of the young god.

“What about Lord Helion? Do you have your own opinion about my proposal?” The three-hundred-year-old man asked the host openly because Goddess Avtexia’s husband had not given any feedback, so the situation was confusing him.

After a few moments of silence, a man, who had a height of one hundred and ninety-seven centimetres, said to Toghnath, who had been waiting for his decision, “I hope we do not have to destroy the mortals who live there because they are under the control of Lord Athalamaya. Hopefully, Atvertha can be found soon, so both of you can get married quickly without having to go to war.”

“What if Atvertha can’t be found? Will Lord Helion agree to carry out my idea?” Toghnath deliberately asked because he wanted to immediately take revenge on the mortals he failed to kill, especially the wolves. The young man could not wait to execute the plan, but he was not able to do it yet because he was still prevented by Lord Helion’s blessing.

“If there is no change in the next four or five hours, then I agree with your suggestion. We will go to Earth at night, but before that, we will give shock therapy first so that the mortal will tell us where Atvertha is. If he still denies it, we can take it upon ourselves to eliminate them all and risk going to war with Lord Athalamaya.” A man wearing a crown on his head was forced to go along with the plan so that Toghnath and Goddess Avtexia smiled broadly.

The God of War smiled broadly. He nodded as a sign of agreement. “Thank you, Lord Helion. I agree with your opinion. We have to wait until evening and then carry out the plan.”
