Chapter 35 - 35: Mystery over Mystery… (2/2)

Not long, as soon as the Divine Lord steps into his airship, his consciousness was transported to an unfamiliar space. He tenses up from the strange occurrence but soon eases up after hearing a familiar voice.

”Brother Ravi…”

”Little Eu? What are you doing here?”

”I am sorry, but I don't have much time. I have to highjack your consciousness and meet you.” Little Eu chuckles.

”What is this exactly?” he inquired.

This is the first time he encountered such a spell. He could tell its a kind of high-level enchantment, but that is not what concerns him.

Little Eu's face is exhausted and drained of color. He knits his brows as he wanted to ask if she is involved with the incident.

”Don't worry, I am fine. You are worrying too much. I cannot explain because I am pressed with time...” she said in a calm, reassuring tone. She pauses as she looks at the horizon as she waves her hand and continues, ”Lord Azure is coming. I must go now...”

He didn't insist as he trusts her words and smiles. He approaches her and pats her head.

”I'll see you soon then. I'll be busy, but I promise to meet you as soon as I can...” he said and reassuring her as well.

Little Eu nods as she smiles. She knew very well they wouldn't meet for a long time.

Both of them have different affairs to settle. The Divine Lord and the Holy Guardians have tons of issues to catch up as well.

They can't ignore the threat brewing all around Astra. They have to prepare countermeasures on his imminent return.

”Divine Lord...” someone called out and pulled him back to his senses.

He massages his forehead as he tries to figure out what happened. He was inside an enchantment with Little Eu, and now he is standing in front of the border, waiting for the magnificent Azure Dragon's arrival.

He wanted to ask a thousand questions forming on his mind. Still, all answers remain elusive to him.

What exactly happened?

He pushes the matter at the back of his head. He needs to solve every issue one step at a time.

He knew that he shouldn't underestimate that man and his capabilities. He has proven himself that he is a formidable enemy.

He doesn't want to neglect his feelings but in order to have a future. He needs to secure the present as well.

As the Divine Lord of his Realm, he needs to take responsibility for his people and territory. Everyone is simply counting on his protection.

He heaves a heavy sigh as he continues his train of thoughts. They need to discuss and settle matters regarding different issues.

Not long, the Holy Guardian Lord Azure Dragon finally arrived and approached him. He can't help to notice his new and beautiful fluorite eyes.

”Greetings, Divine Lord. We have successfully extracted The Holy Guardian Lord Black Turtle...” Azure discloses.

He curled his body and assisted Tiger to disembark the two sleeping Lords at his back. Others quickly came to help them and gave them immediate care.

”Tell me more what happened in Themis.” he inquired.

Lord Azure has transformed back to his human form as he continues to discuss matters with him.

”We infiltrated Themis with a Witch from the Middle Realm. We rescued Lord Turtle and encountered a formidable enemy. Vermilion confronted him while we fought his shadow army...” Azure responded and condensed the events.

He nods as he heard from his informants about the Middle Realm's involvement. He didn't know they have allied to succeed with their operation.

He can't help analyzing that the situation is indeed complicated. If it involves other Realms, then it makes the issues more complex than he initially thought.

Meanwhile, they hide the fact Little Eu is also involved. She was the brains behind the entire operation, and she was also there to intervene.

Though, it was a mystery how she managed to conceal her presence so effectively. At her given level, she can't possibly do it alone.

Who else was there? Who is helping Little Eu?

Who is precisely is the menacing character threatening the peace across Astra?

Mystery over mystery…

The questions only continue to pile up as they think about it.

Days are calm and without any signs of brooding threat.

The Holy Guardians Lord Vermilion and Lord Turtle continue to recuperate while Lord Tiger and Lord Azure handle the affairs.

Their reinstatement is also imminent. They shared all the information they gathered over the years and their experience with their encounters.

At this point, every small detail matters to solve the mysteries. Everyone is focused on the man's identity.

Who is he, and what are his intentions?

They have to piece all the clues and solve the puzzling mystery.
