Chapter 982: The Goddess of Destinys Secre (2/2)
Based on this and Han Hao's relationship with Scarlett, it seemed that the Five Elite Zombies were developing genuine emotions, which allowed them to continue breaking through again and again. It wasn't just a question of pure power, but rather something essential that came from within the depths of their souls. Finding that would make them a new, better lifeform.
”Are you going to take on the Hegemons?” Andrina asked.
Han Shuo nodded. ”That's right. The Hegemons dared to stop retreating from the Fringe. They are turning their attention to Omphalos. Since that's the case, I'll make sure they never get to leave the Fringe alive.”
”I'll come with you!” Andrina said resolutely.
Han Shuo was a little taken aback. He knew that Andrina loathed godhunters, so refusing her wasn't an option. After some hesitation, he asked, ”Why do you hate the Godhunter Alliance so much, Andrina? You've always kept it from me up till now. I wonder if this is the right time to ask.”
Andrina paused for a while before she said, ”My father was killed by godhunters and I used to be captured by them. They forced me to make energy crystal cannons. My lifeforce was almost used up entirely before I even managed to grow up!”
Han Shuo was shocked to hear it. ”How could this be possible with how powerful your mother is? Not to mention, shouldn't someone your mother fell for be able to defeat godhunters?”
The Goddess of Destiny was a widely respected figure. No matter how daring the Godhunter Alliance was, there was no way they would even dare to touch her husband and daughter.
”Back then, my mother hadn't yet obtained the Mirror of Destiny. She also didn't know that she was the Goddess of Destiny and wasn't even an overgod. Before she awakened her powers, my mother was just a normal woman without the wisdom she has today. She was only a weak lowgod,” she said after some hesitation.
”What in the world? So your mother isn't like the other Quintessence Overgods who gained their power quickly?”
Nodding, Andrina said, ”The God of Destiny's power lay dormant in my mother's body as it was sealed. My mother's divine soul is a reincarnation. Before she awakened her true powers in the edict of destiny, she didn't know her true identity. But even back then, she could already have a vague feeling about what would happen. But her limited abilities meant that she wasn't able to avoid the fates her foresight had predicted.”
That threw Han Shuo in for a loop. He didn't think the goddess had that kind of history. If Andrina had not told him this, it might be something he would never find out for the rest of his life. The Goddess of Destiny's powers were completely unique. Yet, what kind of person could be powerful enough to seal away the powers of someone respected by the other eleven Quintessence Overgods and cause her to reincarnate? Gradually, he seemed to have gained an insight into something.
”Andrina, your mother should've avenged you and your father already, right?”
”That's right, but she didn't kill all the godhunters even though she has the power to. Every time I asked her why she didn't do it, she wouldn't tell me anything. Doesn't she know nothing is more important to me than avenging my father?!” It seemed that she had run away from home because of this reason.
”Alright. We'll go to Omphalos together then,” Han Shuo suddenly agreed.
”Father, I will go with her, right?” Han Jin said longingly.
Chuckling, Han Shuo nodded. He half expected this reaction. ”Alright. The two of you shall come with me.”
