Chapter 808 - Raphael Asks For Help (2/2)

The next few days would soon fly by before he knew it and it was difficult for Raphael to see Rowena tiptoe around him and feel uneasy on certain occasions

While Roas convinced that it was him because of his voice and he didn't lay one hand on her, sometimes she jerked away in fear Since all Rowena could see was a monster, she instinctively avoided hi her

Raphael couldn't blahthts that could o insane, but she was doing her best to stay with him

"I'm sorry," Rowena looked away from Raphael and bit her lip "It's a little hard"

"Ho terrible is it in your eyes?" Raphael asked

"You… you look like an eldritchout to me, but all I see are tentacles and I recoil instantly"

Raphael looked at his hand and closed it "Please trust me, Rowena I would never hurt you"

"I know" Rowena finally grabbed his hand and looked at hietically "I'm sorry It must be so difficult for you to be aaway I'll do better, I know that deep down inside, it's still you, Raphael"

"Thank you"

"The punishave you is extremely harsh He punished you with this forht of a monster for a husband for the rest ofas we are together," Raphael said

It had already been teeks since Rowena and Raphael were living in Cretea in relative peace The initial hatred that the Gods and Goddesses had for Rowena stealing the ical dust already waned as they accepted the situation at last

However, the situation was still the sa that it was only Roho saw hi at ho

Raphael gathered ain He wanted their help to make sure Roould pass the test

"I'll have to ask that you be patient with Rowena," Raphael explained to the Gods and Goddesses "The reason why she is free is that she's been punished by ree with her if she ever talks to you DON'T EVER SAY ANYTHING that you don't see me any differently"

"Wow, if I were her, I would immediately run in the opposite direction!" one of the Gods laughed "Your father probablyor hideous"

Raphael didn't smile He didn't find the situation funny

"It e, Raphael," one of the Goddesses said "I feel bad for her that she has to live like that I don't know if I can do that"

"She was frightened at first, but she knows it is me"

"That's true love indeed!" one of the Gods cheered him on

All of the Gods and Goddesses that day were supportive or didn't go against Raphael's words Except for one Goddess that was feeling iainst her palm until it bled
