Book 8: Chapter 127: Sage (3)
“Little Yin, thank you.” Dyon held the palm sized celestial hamster in his hand, gently scratching her small head.
Little Yin giggled, accepting the high-class treatment as she stuck her tongue outward to tease her brother.
‘I can’t believe she awakened her bloodline before me, there’s no justice in the world.’ Little Yang pretended like he didn’t care on the surface, but it was really getting to him that his little sister beat him to the punch.
It likely wouldn’t be more than a few years until he awakened his own. Since they were twins, Little Yang could benefit from his little sister’s experience. But he would never live this one down.
Dyon smiled. He probably looked weird to others, patting what seemed like air. But he didn’t care at this moment as he walked through the skies of Planet Soul. He couldn’t thank Little Yin enough. He had originally only sent her so that he’d have a way to communicate with Clara and also so that she wouldn’t feel lonely and helpless, but who knew it would have such great benefits?
‘Hm?…’ Dyon’s head turned in a particular direction.
The clashing strikes of an intense battle caught his attention, but it wasn’t Aoife and Stella. In fact, it was occurring outside the bounds of Planet Soul itself, several ten thousand miles out of the Planet’s atmosphere.
‘Interesting.’ Dyon smiled, disappearing to appear with the darkness of space only to find a red haired beauty beating back a violet haired one.
Glorianice wiped blood from the corner of her lip as she was sent flying, while Amphorae, other than a slightly laborious breathing pattern, seemed perfectly fine.
Suddenly, the sound of clapping caught the attention of both women. But while Amphorae’s eyes sparkled with a hidden smile, Glorianice blushed with shame.
It didn’t take a genius to figure out what happened. Amphorae might be battle crazed, but she wasn’t the type of individual to pick a fight with anyone she saw. It was definitely Glorianice that called for this battle which only made her loss more embarrassing.
“Lord Husband.”
Glorianice choked on her own spit. “What did you just say?”
“I was looking for you.” Dyon said with a light smile. “I thought you might have headed back to the Drago-Qilin lands, but it turned out you were here.”
Dyon ignored Glorianice’s shock and lightly grasped Amphorae’s shoulders. “Thank you.”
Amphorae’s eyes flashed. “You don’t need to thank me…”
“No. I do. I can’t imagine how much pain you went through to accelerate the creation of your meridians. I wouldn’t be a very good husband if I ignored that.”
How could Dyon forget Amphorae? First, she went off on a trip for half a decade, all for his sake. Then when she got back, instead of being rewarded by her husband, she was thrust into an impossible situation.
“Because of you, Clara is safe. That’s not something I’d ever take for granted.”
Amphorae’s emerald eyes sparkled.
“Husband and wife…” Glorianice felt like passing out. “… The world doesn’t make sense anymore.”
Though it was true she didn’t use her most powerful humanoid beast form against Amphorae, she was certain that Amphorae didn’t go all out either. If she knew Amphorae was an angel, maybe she’d really pass out.
That said, the difference between Glorianice and Amphorae wasn’t so exaggerated. After all, this wasn’t Glorianice’s home universe, so she was suppressed here. This was why she didn’t feel bad challenging Amphorae who faced less suppression due to her soul connection with Dyon. Since the Mortal Alliance wasn’t an official empire yet, it couldn’t lessen the suppression those who joined it faced.
The only reason Dyon no longer faced suppression here was because he became the true Sect Master of Soul Rending peak.
Still, even Glorianice’s loss didn’t jar her as badly as learning that Amphorae was actually Dyon’s wife. A woman like this sharing a husband? Up might as well be down now.
However, when Amphorae fell into Dyon’s embrace, Glorianice realized that she just had to accept it.
After Dyon saw through her plot, she still had some faint hope. Before, she had been planning on sacrificing one of her clansmen in marriage to Dyon. It wouldn’t even be truly sacrificing, after all, Dyon seemed like a good, well-off man. But, she was forced to change her plan after Dyon saw through her. In fact, she planned on putting up herself in exchange for her Clan’s protection.
But now that she saw that Amphorae was his wife, the confidence she had had before was coming to a screeching halt. She had to find another way to secure the future of the Dream Panthers…
‘What an embarrassing day.’ Glorianice sighed.
Glorianice made herself scarce, slinking away and allowing Dyon to spend some time with his wife.
After a few hours, Amphorae went off to train and Dyon headed back to Soul Palace.
‘I should head to Calming Lake soon. But I need to deal with the Demon Generals and a few other things first. They should be preparing to enter the middle tier very soon…’ Dyon’s footsteps suddenly paused. ‘… I should go check on her…’
Dyon left to a secluded area of Soul Palace. But, who would have known that when he entered the space Jade should have been sleeping in, he would find nothing but a delicate fragrance and an empty room.
Suddenly, at that moment, Dyon understood something and it hit him like a ton of bricks. Jade… She was Evangeline.
