Chapter 58 Part 1) New Friends Part 2 (Patreon)

Erebus’ only thought at this time was: ‘Why are women so scary!?’

 “Heh.” Nix chuckled as she walked over, put her arm around Juna’s shoulders, and said: “Stomp harder. This bastard needs to learn his lesson. He even tried to cheat on me.”

“What!?” Juna pushed Erebus’s face down harder. It was now lower than his body. It was quite a strange sight since they were all standing in the air. Erebus, but was four inches higher than his head. His head was almost touching the barrier around the city. “Didn’t anyone ever tell you that cheating is bad? If it was me and my husband cheated on me, I would cut off the thing between his legs!”

“Oh! Good idea!” For some reason, Nix and Juna hit it off as if they had been best friends since they were born.

Oinktera and Ricky, who were standing at the side, looked at each other and then at the scene before them, and both came to a silent agreement. ‘Don’t anger the women!’ Ricky was actually thankful that he did not have a wife at this time, or he might end up worrying about certain parts of his body being cut off.

Desaray was still wrapped in a hug by Khione, feeling very confused yet familiar with this girl. She had no idea who she was, but for some reason, at the same time, she felt very close to her. Desaray gently patted Khione’s back, which made Khione very happy. She pulled back and looked at the dragon girl with a bright smile. “Aria! I missed you so much!”

“It’s Desaray. I do not know who Aira is, nor do I remember anything about being her. I also do not plan to be her.” Desaray stated her last words firmly. She had never even thought of taking on some past life role.

“That’s fine! That’s fine! You can forget about that stinky man! As long as you are safe and sound, I am happy.” Khione had a sisterly vibe to her that made Desaray feel warm.

“Ahem… did you forget about my presence?” Lilith did not like how she was being kicked to the side all of a sudden.

“Tch… Lilith, it is good to see you again.” Khione clicked her tongue. She had been trying to ignore this girl.

“That it has now. If you can let go of Desa here, that would be great. You have to understand this world is under threat by you gods who over see this place.” Lilith pulled Desaray behind her. She did not trust these people just yet.

“That is why we came.” Khione did not argue this fact. “I came here with Nix and Erebus to be of some assistance. We hope we can pull gods who are against destroying this world to our side to make a kind of alliance to fight against the old bastard who ordered this.”

“I see…” Desaray paused and looked at Lilith, who gave her a slight nod. She was about to agree when a deep, gruff voice was heard.

“You can’t forget me!” A man with a boy on his back appeared in the air above everyone. Khione’s expression soured. She looked up at the man and snorted: “Ullr, why are you here?”

“I felt a familiar aura, so I came to check it out. When I noticed you all here, I knew I was right. Little sister! Big brother is here!” Ullr charged forward, wanting to give Desaray a hug, but was quickly kicked aside by both Khione and Lilith!

Ullr tumbled through the air, end over and until coming to a stop and clambering to his feet. He dusted off his clothes and looked up, not realizing he had two footprints on his face. He gave a silly smile as he walked over to Desaray.

“Hehe…” Desaray couldn’t help but laugh. This man did not seem like someone who would be considered a god. But she did not understand why he was calling her little sister. She once more looked at Lilith, who nodded in assurance before saying: “Let’s not stand out in the open. We will bring you all inside.”

“Everyone gather.” Lilith began weaving runes in the air before a magic circle formed under everyone’s feet. Within seconds, they all disappeared, leaving behind a certain person.

“Hey, what about me!?” Erebus yelled out when he realized he was left all alone, only to be teleported a second later.

Desaray did not have Lilith teleport them to the city but to a spot clear of any towns or villages. She had to be as careful as possible since she did not trust these gods and goddesses just yet. “I hope you understand why we are standing in a field and not in a meeting room.”

“Trust is gained not by momentary meeting but over time,” Ullr replied with a smile. “Little sister, you need not worry. We will do our best to gain your trust.”

“My name is Desaray. I am no longer the person you once knew. I am me and no one else. So if you wish to gain my trust, first let go of the past and learn about the new me as Lilith has done.”
