NOVEL NEXT Chapter 56: Are you going to stay quiet?
Higher Realm:
"He already left to find her alone?" Mayaeira Mirin asks Amadeus.
Yesterday, the news of a girl breaking the spell of the 11 gods came like wildfire in the higher realm. It's been 3 years since Mayaeira has started to lose her powers. She is getting closer to death as they speak. The new Renasir didn't make any appearance until yesterday. The chosen one left the higher realm the moment he heard about the girl with golden eyes who broke the spell of the 11 gods. Only a Renasir can do this.
The last Renasir has been chosen.
"I have sent people to invite her to the middle realm." Amadeus has been looking for Kresira. He has visited the lower realm and took care of the adoption. He found out that Kresira Mirin has a spirit beast and she also adopted a brother. The chosen one has been looking for her ever since he heard that Mayaeira is dying. "She is not initiated. The chosen one will bring her to the Mirins first if he finds her."
Mayaeira coughs violently. Her magic is fading. What will that girl do? She needs to talk to her and give away the inheritance. "Bring her to me first when she arrives in the higher realm."
His daughter is the spell that will either destroy this world or save it. Kresira Mirin. What will that girl choose? The chosen one or the Dark God? Mayaeira smiles softly. It was the right decision to not kill the girl back then.

Middle realm:
"Dema continent?" Deia is crestfallen when she learns that her spirit is a Dema. A Dema will never make a serving contract with a human. The gap is too big between a human and a Dema. The law of equality will be broken if a Dema makes a master-servant contract with a human. She is sure that this Dema is her spirit. She can feel it. But, how did the situation turn out like this? A high tier spirit would have been enough.
She hands him a gold coin. "I apologize on my brother's behalf for ruining that bracelet. I don't like taking gifts from strangers. I can't return the bracelet. I am paying back the coin you spent on the bracelet."
She leaves with the man beside her. The little spirit beast hops behind her like a rabbit. The human girl jogs behind them. He looks at the gold coin in his hand. The white fire emerges out his palm and engulfs the gold coin. She didn't ask once who he is.
***
"Introduce yourself," Kresi asks the Dema calmly. Kyo is observing her. His sister is furious. The calm in her voice is calm before she explodes. It's better if she explodes in anger first and become calm later.
The Dema pushes back the hood covering his face. He lifts his head. Long curly sea-green hair. Exotic turquoise eyes. Caramel skin. A straight nose. His presence is quiet, but he cannot be ignored. The Harbinger and the Dark God are scrutinizing him. He is also taking this time to examine the Harbinger. She should be dead already. Then, the Dark God hasn't taken his heart back. Is this why he lacks the awareness that he is the thirteenth god? The Harbinger must have tricked the 13th God. His emperor father has warned him. Humans are conniving creatures because they are weak.
Since the night of the union, he has been wandering the realms to look for the 13th God. He couldn't go to the lower realm because the laws of the 11th gods prevented him from doing so. His emperor father strictly told him that he couldn't return without the 13th God. After 3 long years in the human realm, he found the 13th God.
"Are you going to stay quiet?" Kresi cracks her knuckles. She is ready to beat up the Dema that wants to take away her precious Kyo. "Speak up."
"Damin," He speaks with a tranquil voice. "24th blood of the 12th emperor God of the Dema continent. The dragon god, Aeis, wants to meet his old friend, the Dark God, Adira."
This Harbinger has been calling the Dark God with a strange name.
"The betrayed dragon god!" Mogrok wants to bite that Dema, but he knows that his teeth will break if he tries to bite a dragon. "Your father betrayed the 13th God during the war. If he hadn't, the Dark God wouldn't be captured by the 11 gods. How dare he still calls him a friend? You think that you would use this opportunity to betray the Dark God again?"
Mogrok might dislike the Dark God because that God wants to kill his master. One fact cannot be changed. Mogrok belongs to the law of the Dark God. If the Dark God disappears, all the dark elemental creatures will also disappear including his master because she carries the heart of the Dark God. He is sure that the dragon God wants to destroy the Dark God and the Harbinger.
"Dark God?" Deia stares at Kyo. The 13th God? She falls on her knees. Not only that she has been hanging out with the Harbinger, but there is also the Dark God. The biggest surprise is that her spirit is the handsome prince of the Dema continent. He's the son of the Dragon God.
She realizes that she is the only normal human in this room.
"Master," Damin ignores the little spirit beast. He can squash it with his thumb anytime. His goal is the Dark God. "Emperor father sent me to serve you. If you are having difficulty in acquiring the heart, you can command me to remove it from your Harbinger's body anytime. It is essential that you acquire your heart and take your rightful position in the world again. After acquiring your heart, please come with me to the Dema continent."
Deia feels like crying whenever he calls someone else his master. It should be her. She waited for 18 years. She crossed and even spent a year in the cursed realm to get here and find him. How could he betray him like that? She looks at Kresi with tears in her eyes. Kresi gives her an assuring nod.
"Kyo, do you want to go and meet your supposed friend who betrayed you when you needed him the most?"
Kyo leans closer and says, "Sister, I don't understand what you are talking about. I only acknowledge you as my friend, family, and my woman. I won't acknowledge anyone else as my servant or friend or family. Only you are meaningful to me."
Kresi smiles at him. "That's right. You can only trust me. There are a lot of bad people who want to take you away from me. But, we can't let that happen. If you meet bad people like him who try to lure you away, don't hold back and beat them up. Okay?"
"Okay." He nods at his sister. "Should I beat him up now?"
The Dema squints his eyes at the Harbinger. This conspiring human is taking advantage of the 13th God's repressed state. He cannot let her continue this. "Master, she is a human. You shouldn't trust her."
"You have something against humans." Kresi chuckles lowly. "Kyo won't leave with you. He won't take you as his servant. You can leave now."
"I won't leave without him," Damin replies stubbornly. "I cannot go back on my promise. The 13th God is my master. I have promised my father that I will protect him until he acquires his full strength."
Kresi becomes quiet. She seems to be thinking hard. Mogrok realizes that his master is having second thoughts. "Master, you can't keep this dragon. Dragons are worse than seers."
"He said that he wants to protect Kyo. It's not bad if he stays." She scratches her chin. "Dema, how do I trust you? You could betray us at any moment."
