Chapter 251 - 7.49 Second Violet Star - Wind God, Avel
Hearing the special identities of the men in front of him, Kirk who is meeting Gods for the first time didn't know how to react at this moment. His face is covered in a cold sweat and the smile hanging on his face is twitching especially looking at Araysh who looks like he is from the same race as he is. A dark elf.
He also glanced at the expressionless Neige seating beside Araysh. This is the first time their elven race had met someone from the side of the Ice spirits. Among all kinds of spirits, the ice attributed ones were detached from all other races except their own. Rumors say that the Ice spirits hate getting involved with the others. As only they were the only ones who didn't have a God to serve. But upon hearing the existence of the Winter God from the other room. It is understandable for someone of Neige's structure to leave Ivern and serve the lord of their element.
"I will hear all your requests and make a guild card for all the venerable lords and honorable sirs. This one wanted to ask what names should be used on the card?" asked Kirk his tone had turned respectful after knowing the identities of the men before him, especially the three gods who were left in the other room.
Neige was the one who answered the question of Kirk.
"Use our real names. Either way, even if they knew the real names of the Light God and Dark God what can they even do against them. Moreover, my lord, Eirwen Night is the Guardian God of Kingdom Hart. There is not much difference with or without hiding our names anyway." said the Ice Spirit King.
Araysh listed the names of all five of them and gave them to Kirk.
"You must make it as soon as possible. The temper of the Lords is mood and sporadic," says Araysh while Kirk stood in a hurry making preparation for the card.
Neige pulled out two familiar-looking cards from his clothes and said, "I and my Lord had already got a card made from here but that time we had used a different name. Is it possible to exchange this to a higher-ranked card and change the name recorded in it?"
"Yes, that is possible. Then Venerable Lord Night and Sire Neige don't need to give a drop of blood to the card as you had given away a droplet of it with this card. I would just need to upgrade. Please wait for a moment." said Kirk.
He shouted for one of the staff to bring the necessary equipment which allows blood to bind with the card and mark it with the owner. Araysh and Neige had returned to the other room with the guild master. By the time they returned to the office, they saw that the three venerates had finished their tea.
Eirwen Night is using Lucien's lap as a pillow while Adrienne is massaging his legs. His eyes were closed as Lucien covered his eyes which allowed him to sleep well. But by the time the rest had returned, they immediately received a warning gaze from the twin. Neige and Araysh understood their meaning and gestures towards Kirk to be silent.
Araysh continues his report to the lords through his thoughts.
{Milords, they need a bit of blood to make the card.} says Araysh.
His voice was heard by both Lucien and Adrienne but only Adrienne gave away his blood.
"Our blood is the same as we are originally one person. Use it for both cards." an undertone voice replies, it was Adrienne's voice.
Lucien spoke, "Since our other half is asleep we will take our leave for today. You can speak the rest with Araysh and Neige."
"Araysh, is that place arranged for us to live in?" asked Adrienne.
Araysh replies politely, "Everything in that place had been prepared according to what Milords. We had also made sure that the piece of land was separated from the main one. It is now a small island which would only allow entry to the ones who own and to the people the owner had allowed to visit."
"Good," responded Lucien.
Neige spoke, "The card would be completed in the afternoon at least, I and Araysh shall deliver the lords guild cards before dinner."
Adrienne says, "I see. Where are you two staying?"
"We had made a small mansion at the edge of the main island just a few meters away from where the lords live. Please call us any time," answered Araysh.
Lucien smiled and replied, "Not bad. For now, we will go home." Then the three who were seated on the couch suddenly disappeared in thin air.
Araysh and Neige were used to it and remained expressionless as they bowed their heads. Only Kirk, the guild master, was shocked once again. After all, teleportation with the use of space magic can only be done by Gods. It made him realize that those three unworldly beings were indeed Gods.

Meanwhile at the divine realm, in front of the Temple of the Gods. Avel was repeatedly thrown out of the temple as he tried to enter it without permission. He thought that without the owners staying inside, he could occupy the empty nest and become the new king.
Unfortunately, the divine temple is connected to the thoughts of the Sovereign Twin Gods. Unless they had been allowed to do so, no one else would be able to enter the temple.
Avel, the God of Wind, could not accept this fact and keeps trying to invade the place.
"Shit. SHIT! Why the hell I can't enter!!? There is no one inside to protect the temple. How come I can not even step a foot inside!!!" screamed Avel in anger.
ARGHHH!!!
The Goddess of Earth, Ertha materialized not far from Avel. She spoke, "Avel. Stop! You should already know that only those who were chosen by the world itself could enter the Divine Temple. The temple only allows Lord Lucien and Lord Adrienne to enter and live in that place."
Avel responded, "I do not believe it! I will never accept that the Sovereign's throne is given to those two who could throw away their everything for a mere mortal!!"
This time a fierce and full of arrogant voice answered to Avel. A pillar of fire rises from the earth and a gorgeous lady with a voluptuous body appears. It was the Goddess of Fire, Adara.
"That honorable one isn't a mere mortal. Did you really think the boundary is something that can be broken easily like that? I heard that even the Light God and Dark God working together wouldn't even leave a scratch on that void realm. But that person destroyed it!!! Clearly, he isn't an ordinary existence." says Adara.
Avel smirks at Adara, everyone in the Divine Realm knows that she fancies Lord Adrienne and Lord Lucien.
"Heh~ still protecting those two after throwing away their responsibility as Sovereign for a mortal? Your love is quite deep Adara~" says Avel with an evil and taunting smile on his face.
As the God with the shortest patience among the rest, Adara blew up in anger. She was suddenly covered in a fire as her abilities are closely connected to her emotions.
"You bastard! Your tongue is really loose ha?! Did you really think I would pull it out for you slandering me like this!!? Avel, you fucking greedy bastard! I'll kill you!" exclaimed Adara as she loses her temper.
Avel didn't stop taunting her until she totally lost it. The God of Wind dodges her attacks as he continues to piss her off more. The attacks get fiercer as Adara's anger flares but for some reason, Avel doesn't care and runs away somewhere as he keeps egging her. Ertha, The Earth Goddess was afraid they would really kill each other and had no choice but to follow them.
In some ruined land in the realm, Avel finally stopped running and Adara snorted at him.
"Hmp! You even chose these ruins as a stage. Are you finally willing to fight this goddess seriously!?" says Adara. Her expressions were proud and haughty.
The Wind God didn't reply right away and just looked at the Goddess of Fire with an expression cool as a cucumber. Ertha, who feels the tension between her friends, had to play as the middleman as always.
"Okay~ stop fighting. Things are only going to get worse like this. Calm down first okay?" said Ertha.
When Ertha stood in front of Adara, the expressionless Avel suddenly grins widely, he crashes a stone hidden within his sleeve and an ancient circle under the two goddesses suddenly glows. Before they could even react, eerie blood-like goo restrained the two goddess movements.
"What the hell is this!!?" exclaimed Adara as she tried to burn the slime things crawling on her body. But when she tries to control the divine energy in her body it suddenly fades and she could feel her energy being sucked out of her.
It wasn't only her who felt such a thing. Even Ertha felt her strength fading that she couldn't keep her earth form and could only turn back to her human form. Slowly both the Fire Goddess and Earth Goddess divinity are being stripped out of their vessels. Looking at the smiling Wind God not far from them they knew that this was his doing.
Ertha couldn't believe it. "A-Avel... W-Why!?"
"You damn shit! You are stealing our divinity! You wanted to become a Ruler that much!!!" screamed Adara in anger.
The God of Wind looks at them coldly despite the wide smile on his face. He was looking at them like an idiot. His expression was telling Adara and Ertha why the is it that they were still asking after falling in such a state.
"Hahaha~ of course! Only by becoming the ruler, I could get what I wanted. To steal him from the Fallen God who is the direct subordinate of the Twin Sovereign. I am willing to pull down even the current rulers out of their own house so I could become the Ruler and take Neige from that damn fallen god."
Adara retorted, "You are crazy!!! Neige is only a Demigod and he had been with Lord Araysh for a long time. There is no way Neige would like you even if you become the sovereign!!"
"Shut up! That is not true! Didn't Lucien and Adrienne throw away the throne for their beloved? Then I am willing to sacrifice everything just to use the power of the Sovereign to kill Araysh and make Neige mine." says Avel.
It seems that Avel is deeply in love with Neige. Unfortunately, the Ice Spirit King is already together with Araysh and Araysh is the second strongest God after the Twin Sovereigns. He had no hope. In the first place, the current Neige is no longer the former one but Yun Ming who already possesses the vessel. The original Neige and Araysh had already been reincarnated in another world.
Moreover, the original Neige is an emotionless man due to his cold element. Only Araysh who had grown up with him can move his heart. After all the time they've spent together is longer than with Avel. Avel, before becoming the God of Wind, was saved by the original Neige when he got lost in Ivern.
Because of his potential to become a God, Neige saves him. But Avel had fallen in love with Neige at first sight. At first, it was only pure admiration but as time passes his admiration turns to love and in the end into an obsession. Unfortunately, Neige only has eyes for Araysh.
Avel couldn't believe it. He wanted to get Neige's love but Araysh is in the way. Not only Araysh is a strong god himself the Twin Sovereigns had been moved by his loyalty which is why his life was under the protection of the rulers. Avel could only look but do nothing.
Until everything had changed when Eirwen Night appeared in their world. The sovereigns started acting weirdly that they were even losing interest in the world itself. Avel took this as an opportunity. As long as the sovereigns left their temple he should be able to steal their authority as rulers.
Being a ruler was only the first step. Avel's greed worsened when that man showed a sight of him seated on that throne inside that temple with not only Neige but even Araysh kneeling in front of him. To him, that dream is his future. A future that is destined for him.
