Chapter 363: Three Part Vacation (9)
Naturally, Vega was not particularly skilled at lying. Her story about the Grave of Stars was full of gaps and flaws, but Kwon Oh-Jin hadn’t really doubted her.
The legend about the Grave of Stars was all just a load of crap...?
“M-My child... t-the thing is...”
Kwon Oh-Jin could only remain silent.
Among the hundreds of Celestials, Vega was one of only three who bore the title of North Star. She was known for being cold and curt among the other Celestials.
Of course, in front of Kwon Oh-Jin, she often showed an adorably clumsy side rather than an icy exterior. Still, at her core, she was a deeply righteous and moral goddess. Someone who didn’t even know how to lie. And yet, the superstition she had told him about the Grave of Stars turned out to be an outright fabrication.
Rather than feeling angry at having been deceived, Kwon Oh-Jin felt more dumbfounded. He couldn’t help but laugh in disbelief.
“Ha...”
It felt like a hammer had just smacked him in the back of the head.
Why, though?
Why would she lie just to get him to the Grave of Stars?
She fidgeted when he turned to her with questioning eyes, and her lips trembled as she lowered her head like a criminal caught red-handed.
