“It’s already been three months, and he is still blocking the entrance. The Void Mask is really rather patient and determined!” The Hyacinth G.o.ddess sighed.
Upon hearing this, the Clover G.o.ddess sneered and replied, “Everyone knows the Void Mask protects the marginalized. Previously, when the G.o.d of Storms ordered the sea people to kill Leon, the Void Mask killed two G.o.ds in anger, and the whole pantheon was extremely shocked. Afterwards, many of his biggest wars were also to protect his own people. In particular, the battle with the Alliance of Evil G.o.ds as well as the Fear G.o.d system was also to take care of his subordinates. Being such a person, it comes as no surprise that he is standing his ground in a situation like this.”
The G.o.ds all nodded in agreement. All along, Sui Xiong had been known for doing things with his heart, although not without reason, and going all out, especially for those who he wanted to protect.
Furthermore, he was in the right in this situation; thus, he would definitely not back down easily.
This whole problem was the G.o.ddess of Love’s fault.
“I think you should just put away your pride and accommodate him in this matter. Looking at his current stance, I can bet you that he’d be willing to wait not just three months or three years but maybe even thirty years…. As long as you refuse to accede his request, he will continue to bide his time for the next hundred or thousand years till you admit that you are wrong,” the Rose G.o.ddess, dressed up like a street rogue, advised the G.o.ddess of Love.
“Well, he can continue waiting for the next hundred or thousand years then!” the G.o.ddess of Love replied moodily.
“I’ve never seen such a stubborn person before. He was courteous to you at the start, do you think he’s easy to bully? If you continue to act in this manner, after Leon and Kalisa’s wedding, I can bet he will give you a good beating!” the Clover G.o.ddess chuckled coldly and spoke up in a hostile manner.
“Please! Even before the wedding ends, this silly wretch will be dead!” The Hyacinth G.o.ddess sighed.
“Hey! Exactly whose side are you on now?” The G.o.ddess of Love was getting increasingly riled up.
“Rubbis.h.!.+ If I didn’t plan on helping you, I wouldn’t have come all the way to talk to you! You think it’s fun for me to risk angering the Void Mask? I’m not like you!” the Clover G.o.ddess retorted.
The G.o.ddess of Love was momentarily stunned. After all, while she could be a little indifferent sometimes, she was still able to ascertain between right and wrong.
The G.o.ds had almost been fully mobilized to help her out this time. Everyone had taken turns to negotiate with the Void Mask as well as to give her advice. They had done so despite the risks of angering the Void Mask who could easily destroy not just the G.o.ddess of Love but also the three other G.o.ddesses in the Flame of Pa.s.sion.
Previously, the Clover G.o.ddess also did not have a very good relations.h.i.+p with him. The only reason why she was willing to help with the negotiations here was because her Master G.o.d, the G.o.ddess of Fortune had strictly ordered her to. Although both were considered G.o.ds from the Fortune Realm, the G.o.ddess of Fortune could influence the entire population’s luck, while the Clover G.o.ddess specialized in increasing or decreasing the influence of a particular event on individuals or giving individuals specific blessings over a short period of time. At this point in time, the G.o.ddess of Fortune felt that the G.o.ddess of Love really needed such a blessing. Even if it couldn’t make her magically clever, it could at least change her luck for the better and perhaps change her stubborn mind. After all, if logic couldn’t get her to see the error of her ways, maybe luck could.
The tragic thing was that the Clover G.o.ddess’ blessing seemed to have little impact on the G.o.ddess of Love. Not only did she not change her mind, she even started to overthink.
The G.o.ddess of Love closed her eyes and started to use her powers as well as the added blessing to psychoa.n.a.lyze Sui Xiong in her head.
The Void Mask’s level of pa.s.sion and commitment to the wedding is certainly unusual! He must have special feelings for the couple!
She kept all these thoughts in her head as she knew that the three G.o.ddesses would beat her up if she voiced them aloud
Previously, when she had first regained normalcy from her “fireball” status, she had gotten a severe beating from the G.o.ddess of Joy and G.o.ddess of Fortune. Only the G.o.ddess of Lavender had taken a step back, and this was not due to her lack of anger but rather because she felt that her powers were too limited against the G.o.ddess of Love’s thick skin. Instead, she chose to bestow some powers onto the two G.o.ddesses doing the beating, allowing their fists to be heavier and their punches to be stronger.
In the end, when the two G.o.ddesses had finally finished venting their anger, the G.o.ddess of Love’s beautiful face was left with many severe scars and bruises.
After such a beating, the G.o.ddess of Love should have learned her lesson. However, regretfully, she did not.
Now, her brain was starting to come up with stupid and weird ideas again.
Ah, I no longer have any way to control the Void Mask’s romantic situation…. But I can test Leon Igor’s!
At that moment, Leon was reviewing some doc.u.ments, and he felt his heartbeat irregularly for a second as if someone was watching him. He immediately used a strong magic prop to protect himself.
However, the feeling of being watched did not diminish one bit.
“I used a legendary magic prop, and it still did not work?” Leon was shocked and decided to act without hesitation. He rubbed a ring on his right hand and teleported to Garth City, the Church of the Void Mask.
This was probably one of the safest places in the entire city as it was personally built by the Void Mask. If even this place couldn’t s.h.i.+eld against the prying spell on him, he would have to approach the lord for help.
This move succeeded as once Leon ducked into the church, its protection on top of his magic prop strengthened his body and prevented the G.o.ddess of Love from further spying.
Shucks! His reaction is too fast!
The G.o.ddess of Love had barely started to pry and was already discovered. Thus, she had not been able to a.s.sess his love situation properly before Leon defended himself. This made her feel extremely displeased, and only her companion’s potential scolding stopped her from voicing her displeasure out loud.
Where did the Void Mask find someone like Leon? He’s remarkably observant!
After venting to herself, the G.o.ddess of Love had decided to try again and cast her gaze onto Kalisa.
This time, she had managed to remain undiscovered as Kalisa’s powers were much weaker as compared to Leon. She was a city lord and had never really trained her powers. Rather, she had always relied on Sui Xiong’s grace to maintain a certain level of skill. She could be labeled as a “parallel import.”
Using Sui Xiong’s professional system, she could be labeled as being a level-ten beauty, level-four leader and with an added level of being a wizard. With these fifteen levels, she had managed to sc.r.a.pe into the advanced level of society. If one could count being a beauty as a job, that is.
If she were to be involved in a fight, she would probably be able to a.s.sume a large body to fight novice adventurers. However, if she were to fight against experienced veterans, even those who were not mid-legendary level, it would not be a guaranteed victory.
Of course, one could not deny her beauty. She was one of the rare people in this world who reached level ten for this t.i.tle. This was something that the G.o.ddess of Love quickly observed when she pried into Kalisa’s heart.
The G.o.ddess of Love also realized that Kalisa only had one true love, Leon, who took up most of her heart. The remaining little s.p.a.ce was mostly filled by the Void Mask.
What a traitor, given the amount of generosity the Void Mask has had towards her!
The G.o.ddess of Love shook her head as an idea suddenly came to her. This lovesick Kalisa really fit her personal doctrine!
