Chapter 46: The Second Rejection of the Moon Goddess
"To be precise, it's to make you, darling, become my possession. That way, even the gods won't attack you, because you're my, Artemis's, property."
Artemis had a cheerful smile on her face.
She looked very radiant and dazzling.
"Although the country you built will be destroyed, you'll be able to survive unscathed, and even gain more power than before! You can also live with me forever! Isn't that wonderful? No one will blame you for doing anything wrong!"
Artemis's words were like honey.
They contained a charm that could intoxicate and fascinate people.
But it was also difficult to accept.
Recalling the playful and lively figure of the past, Moran knew that they couldn't go back.
"There's no other way, right? Those are the gods, after all. No one on this land can match our flagship. Even a hero like you, Moran, wouldn't have any chance of winning. So, to survive, you make this choice, you make every effort to survive—isn't that what humans do?"
Artemis said it very matter-of-factly.
She was as pure and holy as the full moon.
