Chapter 70 - 70: Thoughts (2/2)
They are beyond thankful to Eu's efforts and training course. Her fighting lessons and methodology has been conducive to them.
It's been days since the attack, and the Divine Lord Foeni ensures everything is in order. He is glad Limes Temple recovered so quickly after that fateful night.
He also made time to reprimand the Tanuki Twins for deceiving and withholding information from him. How could they?
He is their Lord, and yet they take Eu's commands in priority. Still, he admits she has better foresight than him.
Everything will really be dire without her continuous interference.
Meanwhile, Captain Jairu and Vice-Captain Meneaus discuss the events as they laid out plans for future contingencies. Eu also has given them her opinions and took them to considerations.
The Divine Witch Circe heads back to Middle Realm after settling matters and ensure her apprentice is well. She is gone for almost a week, but she always trusts her people to resolve issues on her behalf.
She also took this opportunity to converse with the Divine Lord. They discuss their plans to defeat the Shadows and the Silver-haired brothers.
Lord Foeni and Witch Circe fortified their alliance and disregarded the restrictions of the Divine Laws.
At this moment, they have to help each other in able to defeat the person who continuously threatens their jurisdictions. They can face the consequences after everything has been settled.
Later that day, Eu rests on the temple rooftop and looks up the clear blue sky. She is deep thought as she watches the clouds slowly drifts away from her sight.
Her powers haven't wholly manifest, and her memories are a blur. She can't tell how everything will eventually fall in the end.
She really can't tell if she is doing enough to make a difference.
It doesn't matter if all her efforts will be recognized.
She can't tell if everything will be worth it.
Still, Eu smiles as she looks back.
The Grand Elder Enoch.
Elder Levi.
Captain Jairu and his Limes Temple Guards.
Aryen, Presea, and Reone and their battalions.
Seig, Di'Anon, Triteia, Eirwen, and Haru.
The Holy Guardian Lords, Vermilion, Tiger, Azure, and Tiger.
Witch Gwyddien.
Noite.
The Divine Witch Circe.
The Divine Lord Foeni...
She can't help feeling melancholic as she recalls her experience with everyone.
In the middle of her long contemplation, a familiar voice interrupted her trail of thoughts.
”You seem very preoccupied. I've been waiting here for you to notice me, yet you are in dazed the whole time...”
She turned to the handsome Lord in purple robes standing by her side. She froze as she wonders how long has he been standing there.
His beautiful ocean blue eyes are framed by long thick lashes that are only fixated on her. His longing gaze simply takes her breath away.
Eu's face suddenly flushed in embarrassment. She is not ordinarily inattentive and absent-minded.
”Brother Ravi...!” Eu exclaimed.
”Ahh, finally. I have stolen you from your thoughts.” Ravikanth chuckles as he continues, ”Care to share?”
He sits beside her as he smiles. It's been a long day, and he wanted to relax and share some time with her.
The Divine Lord doesn't know when they are going to have another peaceful moment with each other. He just wanted to grab this opportunity.
”I am really sorry...” Eu began.
”Are you? Seriously?” Ravikanth chuckles in amus.e.m.e.nt.
”Why are you laughing? I am serious.” Eu refuted.
He can't believe this girl is apologizing after everything she has done. He knew she would do it again, after all.
Besides, she doesn't need to apologize and feel guilty. Her contributions have been beneficial to everyone.
Eu has done more good than harm. He has no complaints what so ever than being left out of the dark.
He looks up in the sky as he paused. He can't help himself from being grateful for meeting Eu.
”No. Thank you. I am glad you are by my side. If it weren't you, I would have failed the second time...” Ravikanth responded.
'Thank you, Eunomia...' he mumbled in an inaudible tone.
Eu knits her brows as she looks at him. She didn't catch what he said, but it made her smile.
