Chapter 22: Soul Wraiths
Even though everything seemed to have returned to normal, all the people who worked in the temple noticed that something was different there—to be specific, the goddess was acting a bit different for some reason.
Diana seemed to be preparing something in her room; she even took several things from the treasury of the temple, after which the goddess didn't leave her room at all—not even coming for the prayers or anyone who came to meet her.
Even though Vritra was nothing more than a level 1, just the fact that he possessed such a dangerous Mythic Halo was enough to make her more cautious. She didn't want to leave any kind of loopholes.
The beautiful goddess, looking pure and majestic, stood in her room and gazed all around. She was already done putting up a strong barrier over the walls so even if there was a fight, she would be able to take care of everything within the walls of her large room.
"Heh, Vritra, if you were lucky enough to have survived then you shouldn't have returned to this place. Maybe you could have lived a few more days. It's too bad that your strength is so low—it would be better if I take care of that treasure for you." Diana chuckled as she continued with her preparation.
She planned to get the number 20th Mythic Halo the next day. Although the process might result in Vritra's death, she couldn't care less about someone like him who possessed such a trashy skill, even if he survives, she would have to kill him in the end.
Leaving traces of her treasure behind would only bring disaster to her in the long run.
"Just wait a bit longer, from tomorrow I will be your new owner..." the goddess felt excited, there were few things that make her feel like this.

Vanessa had such a peaceful sleep after such a long time. When her eyes opened, she found herself leaning onto her son—she had fallen asleep on his shoulder.
"Are you awake?" Vritra asked with a smile. Even though she still appeared a little tired, she already looked a bit better than before.
