After Uranus disappeared, Vritra suddenly flew towards the high platform where Diana and Vanessa were seated. Both of them were surprised by his sudden action. Vanessa wasn’t much worried, but Diana had started to sweat; she was afraid that Vritra might do something.
’Don’t come, don’t come.’ She pleaded internally while remaining calm outside.
Vritra landed in front of the two ladies while the crowd was frozen. Of course, there were many guards there to protect the goddess, but just as they were about to make their moves, Diana waved her hand, making them stop.
He first glanced at Diana but didn’t say or do anything immediately. After a painful few seconds while the crowd held their breath, he simply extended his right hand for a handshake.
Diana was still worried internally, but she shook hands with him without showing any emotion, as another wave of sin points rained. Most of the people were jealous of him—just seeing the goddess was considered such a lucky thing, after all.
Vritra then turned to face his mother. He took a step forward and halted exactly in front of her. He slightly raised his mask, showing half of his face to his mother, who stood up and looked at him with a faint smile.
"Mom, shall we leave?" Vritra asked in a low voice that only Diana could hear. Vanessa nodded in response; she was already aware that it was Vritra.
In the next moment, he took another step forward. His left hand circled around her soft body as he pulled her into a tight embrace, while his right hand held the mask in position, displaying half of his face.
The two slowly began to rise in the air while the entire crowd watched in hushed silence, feeling various kinds of emotions that could clearly be seen in the sin points notifications.
