Chapter 45: Veil of Enigma: Godly Riddles
In the dimly lit realm where shadows converged like tendrils of obscurity, a heavy air of uncertainty weighed upon God Lunar. His encounter with the enigmatic voice had left him with a profound sense of doubt and disquiet.
"I understand the situation very well. Even my own position is at stake. Still, I couldn’t comprehend how she survived when she clearly died. I remember the day when I wrote her fate vividly. I recall how my pen ceased to move, just like how she is not yielding now. It felt as though someone was intentionally holding my hand, preventing me from sealing her fate," the God of Fate, Moiroi, explained. His voice quivered with uncertainty, and traces of frustration were etched in his words.
God Lunar listened intently, his features etched with a mix of concern and contemplation. "Why didn’t you mention this to the Almighty God?" he inquired, his gaze searching for answers.
"Me? Tell Him? Do you think I’m eager to erase my own existence? No, clearly, I am not," Moiroi retorted, his reluctance to confront the Almighty God’s wrath evident.
Their conversation exposed the intricate web of divine politics and self-preservation, where even gods grappled with fear and uncertainty.
"I must figure out this situation myself. You can still attempt to sway her. Her existence is perilous. She should not be there," Moiroi asserted, his resolve unwavering. With that, he vanished, leaving God Lunar to wrestle with his thoughts.
Alone in the haunting silence of his realm, God Lunar muttered to himself, deeply absorbed in thought. "How can I pacify her when she constantly blames me for her fate, even though I had no part in her demise?"
His contemplation was abruptly interrupted by the approach of another presence, an unfamiliar entity that disrupted the godly solitude.
"Who are you?" he asked, his divine senses detecting the newcomer before they even spoke.
"Oh, what a keen sense of a god’s presence, dear Lunar!" the woman’s voice taunted, carrying a mocking tone that pierced the atmosphere.
