The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

In a room in the Underworld,

A black-haired girl was standing in front of the mirror. He seemed to be focusing on the object, but the immortal goddess’s gaze looked different, as if she was trying to see from a distance. “I have to see Dad. I can’t stay here too long. O my father, Lord Helion. Hear my voice. This is Goddess Atvertha calling you.”

The mystical voice of the goddess was heard so that the glass that initially reflected her face now turned into a whirlpool, even though the moment occurred in the mirror. As time passed, the mirror formed an image that did not look so clear. This situation was only temporary because the two-hundred-and-seventy-year-old woman saw two figures that she knew very well. “Mom, Dad,” said Atvertha, quietly.

“If the situation is still like this, then only the seal you made will remain, Hubby.” The Sun Goddess’s voice was heard, and the virgin noticed the conversation taking place in the palace, which used to be her residence.

“You are right, darling. All your seals have been opened, meaning she can only carry out half her duties. She must be experiencing physical changes.” A man with a long silver beard answered his wife’s words. A husband and wife were in a room and sat next to each other. Atvertha continued to listen to her parents’ conversation with a look of great curiosity.

“If Atvertha came to you, what would you do, Hubby?” As soon as possible, a woman who hated darkness asked, so Lord Helion fell silent. However, the wise man maintained a calm face, so the other goddess did not harbor any suspicions about him. The girl whose name was mentioned only used what her biological father would say.

“I will welcome her well. After all, she is my daughter, so I will not throw away or break family ties.” Lord Helion answered casually, but his wife felt otherwise. Goddess Avtexia spontaneously stood up with an angry face mixed with profound disappointment.

“Why would you do something crazy like that, Hubby? Don’t you remember how that girl acted that embarrassed us? How can you accept her like that?” The woman who revealed her beauty to Atvertha could only shake her head, trying not to get into a fight with the head of the family. Lord Helion remained seated and was unaffected by his wife’s attitude.

“I do not want to force Atvertha to do what she does not like, darling. My daughter has also left this palace, so whatever happens to her out there, she has to bear it herself.” A man who was wearing a crown on his head remained adamant in his stance, which made the opposite sex even more annoyed.

“Atvertha deserves to be thrown away! I am happy that this dissident woman chose to leave here because if she comes back, then our good name will still be irreparable. I am embarrassed to face the immortals because the news of her running away and choosing a bloody mortal guy has spread everywhere.” That slender woman snorted, but her husband only smiled faintly. Armen Faustus Lugthna’s future wife became sad with all her mother’s harsh words. However, the virgin could not do anything apart from remaining silent.

“Honey, I am not underestimating the situation we have been through, but you being angry like this is useless. Everything has happened and can’t be changed anymore. If you are determined to ask Goddess Atharana, the Past Time Goddess, the same thing is certain happened. We can only change the present so that it has a good impact on the future.” A man who controlled all the oceans on Earth advised his beloved woman, but the blue-eyed woman strongly rejected these words.

“I will never forgive Atvertha! You must never pity her, Hubby.” Goddess Avtexia tried to persuade her husband, but the burly man shook his head. Meanwhile, a young lady with three bodies, three heads, and three pairs of hands was still listening to all the parents’ conversations with mixed feelings.

“If you still consider Atvertha as our child, that does not apply to me. I do not want to see that stupid child in the palace forever. If she wants to marry that stupid mortal man, she can do it. I will never approve of them.” The four-hundred-and-twenty-year-old woman expressed her hidden feelings and frustration. A man who was married to that immortal goddess without further ado stood and then looked thoughtfully at the Sun Goddess, who was surprised by his action.

“Watch your words, Avtexia. I am your husband. I am in charge of this palace and also in our marriage. As long as we were married, I was always patient with your selfish behaviour. If you do not shut up your mouth, I will turn you into foam in the ocean forever.” The Lord of the Seas’ eyes, which were originally brown, immediately turned black so that Goddess Avtexia fell to the floor, even though the opposite sex did not do anything to her.

“If you do not want to meet Atvertha, then that is your own decision. Do not ever regulate who can come here because THAT is my right.” After he finished saying that, a man carrying the trident in his right hand walked away and left his wife alone. The virgin goddess, who still saw all these events in the mirror, felt sad. However, she could not do anything.

Now, the visuals visible in the reflection of the glass only focused on Lord Helion. Atvertha could see that her father had left the room and appeared to be walking in a specific direction. This sight saddened the girl, but there was a chance to meet the palace’s owner. “I want to see Dad soon, but where will he go? I have to find out.”

The man who could create a giant whirlpool to drown all enemies or humans he hated continued to walk with a restless and angry heart. Avtexia has gone too far! I will not forgive her because she dared to control the guests who came to our residence. I was building this place, so she did not have the right to do that. I will not intervene if she still holds a grudge against our daughter, but it would be a distinct case. She is always my daughter no matter what, thought Lord Helion, who was trying to remain patient.

A young lady continued to observe the Lord of the Seas. The desire to meet his father became more muscular, so he said softly, even almost like a whisper, “Dad. Dad. It is me. I want to meet you now.”

As soon as possible, a man, who had a height of one hundred and ninety-seven centimeters tall, fell silent as if something was disturbing his current activity. The Moon Goddess, who was still in the Underworld, fell silent. Atvertha looked tense, hoping that Lord Helion would be willing to meet her. “Are you really my daughter?” The other god’s voice was heard, but when the virgin looked in the mirror, her father’s lips were still pressed tightly.

“Yes, Dad. This is Atvertha. Can we meet now, if you do not mind?” Atvertha asked, and the girl’s voice was different in Lord Helion’s ears, which made Goddess Avtexia’s husband still unsure of the other goddess’s identity.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Why is your voice strange? Has something happened to you, Princess?” Lord Helion asked again as if he was still convincing himself that the voice that said ‘Dad’ was his daughter.

“You were right, Dad. My appearance became strange after all the seals placed by Mom were removed. My voice also changed.” The Crossroads Lady answered Lord Helion’s question. The four hundred-and-forty-year-old man understood, so the man who had always loved the girl nodded naturally.

“Okay then. I want to meet you. Wait for my signal.”

Lord Helion walked again, and Atvertha followed his interlocutor’s words by remaining silent until called by him. The girl with thin eyebrows continued to watch every move of the palace owner. A few moments later, the man who rarely got angry stopped in a room, and as usual, there were bodyguards guarding the place. The pink-lipped girl could not wait to go there, but she had to obey her beloved father’s orders.

After Lord Helion entered his destination, Atvertha was stunned by the sight he saw in the mirror. I had never seen a room connected to the sea before, but Dad told me that he brought me to the sea when I was a kid. Maybe I was still small at that time, so I do not remember at all, thought Lebrazht Lugthna’s future daughter-in-law.

“Atvertha. Can you come here directly?” Lord Helion’s voice startled the young lady so that as soon as possible, the girl’s attention returned and focused on her father, who was staring at the sea in front of him.

“Yes, I can, Dad. Wait for me.” The black-haired woman looked at the mirror strangely, then touched the object. Atvertha’s body went straight in there and just disappeared. In less than ten seconds, the reflection in the glass in the Crossroads Lady’s room returned to normal, showing images of objects in the room as if nothing had ever happened there.
