I Must Find Out
In a forest that located on Earth,
“Where are we going tonight?”
A pale-faced girl asked the opposite sex. The burly man looked silent for a moment as if he was thinking about something. Silence returned between them so that the lovers could hear the sounds of the nocturnal animals at that location. Unbeknownst to them, a pair of eyes lurked not so close. The scout seemed to be watching both targets intently, not making a single sound.
“Do you want to meet the wolves again or go to the Tri-Colored Lake? I do not mind if we visit the same area, honey.” That handsome man replied softly. The goddess had not said anything yet. Suddenly, the desire to visit interesting spots there arises by itself. Meanwhile, her lovely man was still waiting for comments from the opposite sex.
“Are there other spots here that can be visited, such as waterfalls or rivers? I want to see the beauty of that place, if that is possible.” A silver-haired girl expressed her wish. When hearing the comments from a woman he adored, the brave guy seemed to be trying to remember the two things that Atvertha had mentioned. Armen seemed to have an idea so that young man smiled broadly.
“I know one beautiful waterfall here. However, the distance is quite far, about forty to fifty minutes if we walk. How is it? Do you still want to go there?”
“Yes, Armen. I still want to go there, but for the sake of saving time, I will do it on my way.”
The thirty-five-year-old man frowned. That young man looked confused by what he had just heard from the other person. Meanwhile, the Moon Goddess watched over her mortal boyfriend, who looked so confused. “What did you mean about ‘I will do it on my way’? Did you want to do something that will make our journey there easier?”
“Yes. I have my way, Armen. Soon, we will arrive there in less than forty or fifty minutes.”
A man with thick eyebrows seemed to have forgotten that his beloved lover was not a female mortal but an immortal goddess. Armen, who was initially confused, gradually became aware of the beautiful woman in front of him. The eldest of the two brothers smiled shyly, but Goddess Atvertha did not say anything to the opposite sex, so the young man felt a little calmer.
“So how do we get there? What would we do?”
A young goddess extended her right palm toward the interlocutor. Such a moment seemed strange to that man. He looked in that direction but did not do anything. Atvertha seemed to understand what was stored in his lover’s heart, so the young lady had to say to Armen, “Do not worry. I will not do something weird. It is easy because you just hold my hand. After that, you have to think about where we are going. Afterward, you will see.”
“Okay.”
The man holds the lover’s right hand so that the slender woman gets an idea of the opposite sex’s intended location. Their bodies disappeared from view in less than a minute, so this event shocked Lebrazht, Armen’s biological father, who had been watching the two of them. As soon as possible, he rubbed his eyes as if to convince himself that what he had witnessed was not just a dream.
“What a good grief! Armen and that strange girl disappeared! How could such a thing happen? Will my son be able to return to our house? Where should I look for him?” Lebrazht asked himself. However, he still did not get the answer he wanted.
The night wind blew so that it hit the head of the Lugthna family’s skin. The fifty-four-year-old man started to work up the courage to move. He started walking towards the spot where a pair of lovers from different natures had stood. After arriving in the area, Norah Bitnantzh’s husband looked around and could not find his son’s and his girlfriend’s whereabouts.
“This cannot be allowed. If Armen keeps seeing that strange woman, I am sure that the bad things will definitely happen to our family in the future. I have to ask about this problem to my son. If he still refused, then we had to set him up with a normal girl, Atlanta. I do not want to lose him.”

Somewhere there was a waterfall,
Slowly but surely, two figures emerged from the darkness. They set foot on the ground within a ten-meter radius of their destination. A brown-skinned man, because he had a lot of outdoor activities, was amazed. He could hear the sound of the waterfall, although he could not really see the state of the place because the darkness blocked his sight. Meanwhile, the Goddess, who was next to her boyfriend, could witness the waterfall’s beauty because Atvertha could see in the dark.
“It is a beautiful place,” said Atvertha, breaking the silence between them.
The muscular man turned his head to the side as soon as possible when he heard the opposite sex’s words. He was surprised and confused at the same time because his lover even said that. Meanwhile, Atvertha looked relaxed and continued to stare at the waterfall that her mortal man had promised. “Can you see the scenery in this place, honey?” Armen asked, amazed.
“Yes, I can see the panorama on Earth, including here clearly. Is that a strange thing?” replied Atverta.
A virgin goddess turned to the man, who still looked confused and amazed at the same time. That handsome guy had not been able to give an answer because he seemed to have forgotten what he was going to say and was only focused on seeing the beautiful face of his beloved. The atmosphere around that place was indeed quiet, and only the sound of water was heard. Even the sound of the night stars was muffled by the sound of the waterfall.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
“You are so pretty.” That’s all Armen can say.
The young man was indeed fascinated by the beauty of his lovely immortal goddess. Atvertha, who heard the statement, did not give a reaction, let alone comment on her beloved man. She continued to observe the expression of the eldest son of the couple, Lebrazht Lugthna and Norah Bitnantzh, without blinking at all.
After a while, the lovers who came from the two realms fell silent and looked at each other; the only daughter of the couple, Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia, also said to the opposite sex, “Thank you, Armen.”
“My pleasure, my dear.”
A silver-haired girl wanted to smile, but it was useless. The night wind blew, hitting their hair, hands, and clothes. Goddess Atvertha turned her gaze towards the waterfall because that girl was already feeling tired of her mortal lover’s gaze. Armen was not offended by the attitude shown by the opposite sex. He also took part in the same action with his beloved. They seemed to enjoy the atmosphere of silence.
“Honey, can I ask you something?”
Armen’s question broke the silence between them. The Moon Goddess turned her attention to the other person. She stared expressionlessly at her man. Armen still looked at the same point, namely the waterfall. The girl was confused by the opposite sex’s attitude of not saying anything yet, so she took the initiative to do so. “Yes? Is there something you would like to ask me?”
“Are your activities while in the palace in the sky just studying, or maybe there are other activities, honey?” Armen finally managed to ask about something that had made him curious. Meanwhile, the immortal goddess was a little stunned by the question posed by her lovely boyfriend, so that virgin was silent for a few moments as if she was thinking about what kind of answer she would give.
“Most of the activities there are learning. Occasionally there are going out of the palace, but I am not the type of Goddess who likes to socialize with other Gods, except for my best friend.” Atvertha finally could answer.
Memories of her and the God of War have gone out together, even though the maiden did not want it to happen, suddenly appeared in her mind, and it caused the young lady to be a little irritated. However, this was not shown directly. She pretended everything was alright.
I do not like it when I have to remember the incident where Mom manipulated the answers so that bastard god could take me to The Heavenly Library. What was so good about that damn playboy? Mom and Dad only like Toghnath because he is just an immortal god like us. How disgusting reason! Grumbled Atvertha inwardly.
A mortal guy listened to all the words of Goddess Atvertha. However, for Armen, there was still something that the thick-browed man felt was lacking, so he needed to ask an additional question. Meanwhile, a girl with a pointy nose was still silently watching the young guy’s every move. She felt happy because she could meet her beloved man. “Can I ask something else if you do not mind, my love?”
The two-hundred-and-seventy-year-old woman looked confused by the question. However, the Queen of Witches was curious because she wanted to know what the man, who had a height of one hundred and ninety-two centimetres tall, wanted to ask. “Yes, you can do it. What do you want to know from me?”
“Are you-”
