The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

Meanwhile, in a palace in the sky,

A slender woman was sitting on a bench in the library room, rereading all the parchments containing her mother’s teaching materials. While trying to concentrate, suddenly, the memory of a handsome man who had been dying in the forest but had been rescued and then placed in a cave began to appear in her mind, so Atvertha immediately shook her head several times.

“No. It is not right. I can’t think about the mortal, because we are different. I am a goddess and it is an enormous difference between me and him,” murmured the Moon Goddess.

The pale-faced girl began to focus her attention on the parchment again, but the same man’s expression returned. This made Atvertha flabbergasted and then accidentally hit a bottle so that it fell to the floor, and spilt its black liquid contents. The Sun Goddess, who had just entered the room, saw her only daughter, who looked a little panicked.

The wife of God Helion observed what her daughter was doing, so curiosity arose in her heart. She also walked closer to Atvertha, who was chanting a spell, so that she could clean up the black ink that had spilled on the floor. “Clenantho!” [1]

Before long, the stain from the black liquid used for writing finally disappeared, leaving the floor clean again, as if nothing had happened there. However, the violet-eyed girl had not yet realized that there was another goddess in the room. “Atvertha, what are you doing?”

The probing question surprised the owner of the name, so she turned her head to the source of the sound. Atvertha was as soon as possible flabbergasted, and her mother clearly saw this. Goddess Avtexia’s gaze was piercing. The atmosphere in the library became awkward because the Sun Goddess was observing the virgin goddess’s every move.

“What are you doing, Atvertha? Why are you even being so careless? Has something happened that you have experienced such a thing?”

“I-I-”

The sharp gaze of the other person made the girl who had started to feel strange things for the mortal male she had saved unable to finish her words. The awkward atmosphere was clearly felt so that in the room, there was a very real silence.

“Well. Before we move on to the next material. Have you ever wondered why you, who were born by a parent who was a god, and, of course, a goddess, still have to learn about everything? Including learning about spells and everything related to the area that will be mastered when it is fully released to you. Am I right?” The silver-haired woman who was speaking in front of the library asked the moon goddess a question.

“That’s right, Mom. I thought about it for a while.” The violet-eyed girl answered the question. There are doubts when saying and agreeing with what has been said by her mother, who has been her guiding teacher all this time.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

“Good.”

The Sun Goddess seemed to be nodding, but the woman who had lived longer still had suspicions in her heart, especially regarding the events of a while ago. The only daughter who began to feel strange things spontaneously looked down so that her face would not be seen clearly.

“You still have to learn, because you do not know everything. You are still young. Your age might be two hundred and seventy years old now. However, in the human world, it was equivalent to twenty-seven years. You do not have experience with anything, especially regarding spells, power, and mortals.” When she said the last words, Goddess Avtexia deliberately pressed her as if she wanted to give her only daughter a hidden message.

The young woman did not dare to say anything, so she chose to remain silent. Silence fell between the two of them. I hope mom does not know that I had time to come down to earth to save humans. If only mom knew … she might be killing me immediately, thought Atvertha, who kept trying to be as natural as possible.

“I furthermore experienced the same thing as you – study diligently, so that I can become a goddess who has full power over day and night. However, I need your help. I will give you important roles and, of course, duties. Therefore, in order to be able to develop optimally, especially when you have ruled at night, and whatever is available in your authority, then you have to do the same with me in the past.”

The sharp-nosed girl began to dare to raise her face. The virgin goddess stared at the mother, who was still observing all her actions. Time seemed to run slowly for Atvertha. However, the intelligent woman chose to remain silent for a while in order to support the actions that had been done earlier.

“In addition to focusing on studying, you should find a life partner for yourself. Do not decide to live single, because later you must have children to continue our legacy. How about Toghnath? He is a god, and he is fit to be your mate and your husband, Atvertha.”

When she heard a name called, the young lady suddenly showed her displeasure. “What do you mean, Mom?”

“Yeah, you heard right. Toghnath is a suitable god for you. He is also immortal, just like us. Moreover, that guy is the God of War who has often been called by mortals, if they want to win the war, so you will know more about how dirty the mortal notion is.”

The slender girl still showed distaste for the name that had been mentioned. In fact, she did not cover it up on purpose. Meanwhile, the mother is still observing and observing the behavior of her only daughter with a sharp gaze. They had not yet established a conversation, so the awkwardness and silence began to return there.

“Okay, let’s move on to the next subject-”

Two hours later

“What should I do now? I still remember that guy. Is he ok now? He is supposed to be fine because I arrived there on time. Why do I keep thinking about that human, anyway?” murmured Atvertha, restless.

The young woman sat on a chair in an unfamiliar room from the library. In front of the girl, there was a mirror that reflected her pale look that looked restlessness. Suddenly there was a knock on the door, so Atvertha turned toward the source of the sound. “Who is that?”

“Goddess, it is me.” A voice from outside made the long-haired girl realize that something had happened.

“Come in!” After saying this, the door opened wide, accompanied by the entry of a young woman who was younger in age. She came before the Moon Goddess and gave homage.

“Goddess, you were asked by Goddess Avtexia to the living room.” The interlocutor began to convey the meaning of her arrival at the place. When she heard this, the virgin goddess immediately frowned because Atvertha still did not fully understand what the lady-in-waiting had said.

“Why was I asked to come there? What happened there?” asked the violet-eyed woman. She already had her suspicions, but she had not stated them openly. Meanwhile, the lady-in-waiting was already feeling bad but did not dare say such things to the Moon Goddess.

“Goddess Avtexia said, that over there-”
