Chapter 127. The Announcement Part Two
“Good question, Agtheo. I am sure you are asking that because you did not want to be matched with a girl of my choice, right?” This question made the owner’s name silent. He did not dare answer because he felt that his safety would be threatened, especially since his big brother’s girlfriend was not an ordinary human but an immortal goddess who had power over their tribe.
“There is not a single Alpha who can avoid it. Lebrazht said that if parents usually matched their children together, then I would take their place as the Moon Goddess. If there is an Alpha, either a man or a woman, who dares to reject Luna’s candidate, then he will get sick and suffer until he dies. That is the punishment for dissenters.” Atvertha’s violet eyes, which were initially violet, turned orange, which made the young man as soon as possible look down for fear of being killed.
“Are there any more questions before I go? I only received one question.” Atvertha turned to the left and saw five large black dogs and several wolves there and seemed to be standing separately from the entourage of immortal gods and goddesses. The virgin beckoned them to come closer, and the spirits obeyed. They walked towards Armen Faustus Lugthna’s future wife.
A man in a white robe raised his hand, causing the immortal goddess to move there, as well as all the mortals there. “I would like to ask, Goddess Atvertha.”
That goddess nodded, so the middle-aged man dared to ask. “Pardon me, Goddess. Will there be a ceremony to appoint the Lebrazht as a Lycan King? If there is, then under which immortal god or goddess will he be sworn in? I apologize if my question seems impolite.”
“For the Lycan King appointment ceremony, of course, there is. He will be sworn in using Lord Athalamaya and also my name. When all the Lycans die, they will be tried twice before meeting Lord Havento. First, they will meet Lord Athalamaya, and they must face it. Afterward, they come to me. If they are proven to have committed more violations, then I will hand them over to the Lord of the Underworld for a final trial.” Atvertha answered the High Priest’s question without any hesitation.
The atmosphere returned to silence, and the wolf spirits, either transparent or large black dogs, had arrived on the left side of the only daughter of the couple, Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia. Atvertha realized this situation and then wanted to carry out what she had intended. A silver-haired woman felt the presence of a pack of wolves that were still alive from about fifty meters away. They had indeed witnessed what had happened to the mortals and seemed reluctant to come closer.
“To the wolf pack under Blue’s leadership. You have proven your loyalty to me, even after becoming spirits. These five dogs helped me when I was attacked by the Sun Goddess. For their loyalty, I appointed them as my pet companions. All of you, including the wolf spirits who do not have the form of dogs, will live in my realm. The High Priest must make a statue of me with these dogs and put it in the temple. Whoever wants to honor me, then you must remember that the dogs are from this wolf spirit and must not be hurt. They are my precious.”
A young woman who could see into the darkness stretched her right hand forward, and then a ball of fire appeared from her palm, which stunned everyone there. “Come here, Blue, Earth, and all your pack members. Fire, go get them.”
That fireball flew towards the target without further ado, according to the creator’s orders. The pack of wolves was shocked, especially Blue and Earth, whose names had been mentioned by the immortal goddess. “I thought the Moon Goddess did not know that we had been standing here.” A blue-eyed wolf said to another wolf to his right.
“I thought the same way, too, Alpha. It turned out that the Moon Goddess actually knew where we were and instead bestowed us with the honor of being her pet companion.” A gray wolf answered Blue’s words. He felt moved, but questions arose in his mind. However, before the Elder had time to express his feelings, a fireball arrived there, and all the pack members, including Blue and Earth, understood what they had to do.
Without being ordered by anyone, all the pack members walked following the fireball sent by the slender woman, the protector goddess of the werewolves. A man who had a height of two meters openly turned to the girl he loved, and then he began to say in immortal language, “Are you sure about creating your own realm?”
The sharp-nosed woman turned to Nyx’s eldest brother. Without hesitation, Atvertha nodded. “Absolutely. I do not want to bother you for too long, Havento. I have to be independent so I can carry out all my duties as a full-time goddess well. I will not forget your and Hertinoz’s kindness for helping me get this far.”
For some reason, a three-hundred-and-ten-year-old man did not seem to agree with the opposite sex’s decision. Havento almost wanted to express all his feelings but quickly remembered that they were on Earth, precisely in front of mortals. Not only them, but there were also the wolf spirits, the five big black dogs, Hertinoz, Lord Athalamaya, and Goddess Tathatea, so the young man gave up his plans.
“I will talk to you privately when we are already in my place.” That was all Havento could say, and Atvertha, who could not read the other person’s heart, nodded once.
That young lady again directed her gaze towards the front. Not long after, a pack of surviving wolves arrived, guided by a fireball she made. Atvertha said to all the members of the Agbazarth Tribe who were still in the same position, like prostrating themselves, but their heads were not touching the ground. “Stand up, mortal.”
The chief started first, followed by the High Priest, Armen, and all the tribe members. They had stood up and saw that a pack of wolves had arrived and were on the left side of the Crossroads Lady. Atvertha told the wolves, “I grant you the ability to change into human form. You will live as mortals and return to your original form when the full moon occurs. This happened after I appointed Lebrazht as a Lycan King.”
Atvertha looked at Earth and Blue, who were nearby. “You must promise to me to faithfully help the Lycan King. If the Lycans dare to hurt you, then you can complain directly to me by bringing evidence and witnesses. I am the goddess who protected your pack before this incident happened, so don’t hesitate to ask for my help.”
Blue and Earth made a gesture as if honoring the goddess, so all the pack members did the same. The Alpha said to the interlocutor, “Thank you for the Moon Goddess’ kindness to our pack. We promise to support Lebrazht as our Lycan King faithfully.”
After completing these actions, the pack returned to their feet. Armen and his tribe could only observe, and none of them dared to comment.
“Your pack can marry men or women from the Agbazarth Tribe, but there is only one leader, Lebrazht. Blue becomes Beta for him, and Earth becomes Elder. You are already one group, so if there are difficulties, especially adapting to life as humans, then everyone must help each other.”
A silver-haired woman was silent for a few seconds, then got a brilliant idea. Atvertha looked at the Alpha and the Elder, then turned to Beta, who had changed form. “Earth, Blue. Do you know who these five big dogs are?”
The five dogs walked closer to the Elder and Alpha. When they got close, the two wolves seemed to recognize who the dog was at the front, and their gazes were full of meaning. “Are you Datzha?” asked Earth, in wolf language.
“Yes, Elder. It is me. I used the last power as you said,” answered the Beta. He also uses the same language.
“Why… why did you do that?” Earth saw four other dogs with the same form as Blue’s representative when he was still alive.
“I will not forget the Moon Goddess’ kindness, so as the leader of these spirit pack members, I can only make decisions according to instinct.”Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Blue chose to remain silent, even though his feelings were raging inside his heart. However, in the end, the Alpha couldn’t stand it and asked his deputy, “You know the consequences of using your final strength, right?”
“I know, Alpha. I do not regret doing it and being helped by four brave soldiers.” Datzha answered with confidence and a little pride when he said it. Meanwhile, Havento continued to monitor the movements of the woman he liked, even though Atvertha did not know it because he was busy listening to the conversation between the two wolves and a big dog.
“We will not meet again then.” The blue-eyed wolf seemed reluctant to give up the deputy and his four subordinates because they had been chosen to live in the goddess’s realm.
“I will allow them to come to this place, especially if I come here in person.” Atvertha chimed in, so Blue nodded.
A girl with natural pink lips looked at a black man staring at her without blinking. “Can I take the five dogs and the wolf spirits to live temporarily in the Underworld?”
“It is okay. You can take the dogs. Are you finished?” A man who rarely smiled wanted to confirm. And the girl nodded, which relieved the three immortal gods and a goddess.
Atvertha looked towards the Agbazarth Tribe. Her pale and expressionless face made it impossible for anyone, including Armen and his tribe, to know what she was thinking. “I will come back and will inform Lord Athalamaya. He will inform the High Priest. You all must attend the coronation of the Lycan King.”
“Yes, the Moon Goddess.”
Atvertha looked at the immortal husband and wife who had long been the guardian god and goddess of the Agbazarth Tribe. “Thank you for the opportunity you have given me. Lord Athalamaya and Goddess Tathatea. I will return to the Underworld with Havento and Hertinoz.”
The friendly-faced man smiled broadly. “You are welcome, Goddess Atvertha. We will await your arrival again with Lord Havento and Hertinoz. Thank you for your help and not forgetting us.”
“I should thank you and your wife for your help. See you later.” After saying these words, Atvertha glanced at a handsome young man she loved very much. Armen, who was observing all his lady’s actions, smiled sweetly at her as if the man felt relieved because his immortal lover had remembered him.
The beautiful girl said in a low voice, but only Armen could hear, “I will be back again. Wait for me. We will get married, and I can’t wait for that.”
Armen nodded, and then Atvertha turned his attention to the two immortal gods who were waiting for him. “Come on, let’s go. Hertinoz, please help me bring the wolf spirits? I will take those five big dogs.”
“Sure, Goddess Atvertha.” Those two immortal gods and a goddess immediately left the place, taking with them the wolf spirits and five large black dogs and headed to the Underworld.
