Chapter 234: 7.33 Second Violet Star - Unknown Voice
Eirwen ate dinner at the regent's palace with the twins but his appearance is a secret to the others as his standing is special. Everyone in the palace knew that both the regent and the crown prince didn't really get along. Only when the Gods possessed their bodies that the two would be able to stay in the same room. Now that the regent and the prince had dinner together means that they are currently not their lords but the gods who borrow their vessel to descend in the mortal plane.
Meanwhile in some cheap inn somewhere within the empire,
Bela Laurel entered a room she had rented. She wanted to stay in some big inns in the empire but unfortunately, today is the return of Hero Luciel and most of the inns were full. She who had never expected that her plans would fail had no intention of staying in some downgraded place.
Thinking of her plan succeeding, there is no way that someone who is supposed to have saved the hero would stay in this place. According to her memories, Hero Luciel is also the crown prince of Cloud Empire, which means anything within this land can be said under his authority.
Lady Laurel started showing bad tantrums in the significance of her bad mood. There was nothing in the small room that she had thrown over. After tiring herself she sat at the distorted bed of her doing and pants, trying to calm her anger.
It seems that she had used a teleportation stone he got from the third prince, Elliot Hart for this journey which is why her memories remain unaltered.
Bela spoke, "Who the hell is that ugly man? He doesn't even have the face like that slut Eirwen but the Hero and the other handsome man are so obsessed with him!! Wasn't that black-haired man the regent!?"
"I cannot believe this. With that ordinary face, he was able to hook up two extremely good men like a whore!!"
She was busy talking to herself when suddenly he heard someone's voice. The tone of the voice is obviously owned by some uncle-like man but then the voice had hints of bewitching and hypnotism. Clearly, this man is quite captivating just based on his voice.
'You know him pretty well. That man who took your prey~'
Bela Laurel was startled at first and then put her highest guard up.
She questioned the owner of that man's voice, "Who are you?! What do you mean that I know that whore who stole the hero from me?!"
'Girl there is no way you could win after that ordinary-looking young man you saw and the person who destroyed your plans is the same person.'
Lady Bela exclaimed, pissed off that this person was not answering her properly. She knew that this person had wanted something for her to do.
"Speak what you want!?" asked Lady Laurel.
'What I want is the same as what you wish for. All I need is for him to die.'
"Huh? What are you talking about?" asked Lady Laurel.
'You really didn't notice? That young man from before is Eirwen Night in disguise. He came to the Adventurer's Guild to destroy your plans as always. Did you really think what happened before is a coincidence huh?'
Bela Laurel was shocked, he never expected that even after Eirwen Night left the kingdom he would still run around just to destroy her plans. He was indeed her nemesis!
"So it was him indeed! I'm going to fucking kill him!!" said Bela.
But the voice told her otherwise and spoke sarcastically towards her.
'You must be dreaming if you think you could kill him. In this world, there is only that person who could kill him. It was rather unfortunate for him to order the death of Eirwen Night instead of killing him with his own hands. If he did it with his own hand's things wouldn't have turned out like this. Still foolishly obsessed with him. That fool.'
There is some vague information in the man's words but Bela Laurel doesn't care as long as she got what she wanted.
Lady Laurel asked, "What should I do then?"
'Simple. For now, lay low and prepare the foundation of the plan. You only have to follow my orders obediently.'
"As long as you can kill Eirwen Night I am willing to be your dog."
'Just listen to my orders and you'll get what you want.'
After this day Bela Laurel continues following the timeline scene in accordance with her previous memories but as expected Eirwen Night would always appear to destroy her plans. But secretly with the help of that voice, she had made some plans that even System Yue was unable to complete.
---
When the sun had risen the next day, Eirwen Night woke up in his bedroom at the mansion of his dimensional space. Even though Lucien and Adrienne asked him to stay over at the palace, Eirwen declines. Not only he isn't willing to sleep beside someone who isn't his lover's real body, he still hasn't gotten used to his husband splitting into two.
[Host, Bela Laurel started going to the other God's temple. According to her memories, the temple she visited is The Fire God's temple.]
"I do not know if she's stupid or just foolish. I've destroyed her plans countless times but she never changes and for some reason she..." says Eirwen.
[Is there something wrong with her, Host?]
Eirwen suddenly smiled slyly as he thought of something but didn't respond to System Yue's question. He stood up from the king-size bed at the Master's bedroom and headed to the bathroom and had a bath.
"Nothing is wrong. Informing that we are going to guild today and do some missions. Most of them would be F-rank anyways~" said Eirwen before disappearing to the bathroom.
[Sigh~ isn't that only chores for the hosts? I will inform Yun Ming.]
System Yue went out of dimensional space to talk to Neige as he was ordered. After a while, Neige, Eirwen, and the ice pixies had teleported back to the Cloud Empire and went to the Guild Hall's Mission board. In front of the F-rank missions posted at the corner, Neige and Eirwen who were wearing disguises as always were carefully looking at the posted papers on the wall before them.
Most of the mission under F-rank is about Cleaning, gathering herbs, and killing F-ranks beasts like horned rabbits, slimes or goblins.
Eirwen spoke, "There's a lot huh? Yue which one among these would allow me to keep my hands clean except for cleaning the other two seems fine. But I don't want to dig through dirt, would cutting the stems be fine?" he was talking about the mission of picking herbs.
[That Host, are you sure you do these boring things?]
Eirwen spoke, "Yes, it would pass as a pastime. So which one should I choose?"
"My lord had nothing to worry about. This one could prepare with gloves and a mini shovel for the lord. If the Lord wishes to pick herbs." says Neige.
"Well~ that is indeed possible. As for hunting, can I send them frozen?" asked Eirwen.
[Yes they would accept it but we must surrender it dead and not covered in ice.]
"Then there should be no problem," said Eirwen as he plucked a few herb picking missions and the hunting mission for the horned rabbits and slimes.
Passing the papers to Neige beside him he says, "Let's do these four. Ask for the duration for these, we'll take our time doing it. It's only for fun anyway." says Eirwen.
Neige took the papers with him and led the way where they could accept the tasks they've chosen. At the counter a male elf with long light blonde, pointy ears, and emerald eyes welcomed them. This elf is quite handsome and looks delicate like most elven races.
Elven race lives surrounded by nature and gets along with most spirits of all kinds. They also have the ability to see spirits naturally. This is why when Neige, an Ice spirit king, appears before him the former couldn't but treat Neige kindly and respectfully even though he doesn't know his real identity.
The male elf's name is Speria.
Speria smiles at Neige and greets him respectfully, "Ah~ Sir Eis you're here. Do you wish to apply for a rank up?" he asked.
Neige remained emotionless in his disguise form, "No I'm here to accept missions with my brother and officially get our guild card." he said.
Once Neige mentions his brother coming, the elf named Speria looked around for that brother figure. He saw a petite, ordinary-looking man standing behind Eis. There are familiarities in their appearance, but the feeling coming from this young man makes him extremely uncomfortable. The feeling is like meeting a behemoth or something. Speria unconsciously flinched back when he met the eyes of Eirwen.
It was not only Eirwen who noticed the strange reaction of the elf, even Neige slightly squinted his eyes as he looked at the weird elf.
Eirwen asked his system in his mind, "What is wrong with him?"
[Host, elven races was a humanoid race that specialized in spirit magic and bows. There were excellent hunters and loved nature the most. Because of this most spirit races like them. They also have a special intuition and eyes which allows them to see spirits. Thankfully the Ice pixies protecting you are in an invisible mood else this elf would hover around you as well.
Moreover, he could intuitively feel your real strength. To him facing you is like facing the mountain several times taller than him. He got overwhelmed for a moment just now which is why he flinched.]
"No wonder. Should I also shield my aura so I would look weak?"
[That... if you do that, in the forest almost all the beasts would attack you because you would look the tastiest yet the weakest. If the host wishes to have that situation then please feel free to do so.]
"Nevermind. Forget about it."
It was at this point that Neige blocked Elf Speria's line of sight. He placed Eirwen behind like before.
"Please don't scare my younger brother," says Eis.
[Scare? huh! Like hell my host would get scared by anything except the Lord God!?]
Eirwen scolded in his mind, "Shut up, you stupid moon!"
