Saved by Dad
Inside the library,
“I want to ask, why did Mom grant that male witch’s wish? Then how did you find out that his name was Mathias?” asked Atvertha, full of curiosity.
A woman who hated the darkness smiled sinisterly. She could not forget the disappointment at Atvertha’s actions, even though the target still did not know what happened because the Sun Goddess did not tell Atvertha honestly. Meanwhile, Armen Faustus Lugthna’s lover was increasingly confused by her mother’s attitude. However, the girl was still waiting for an answer from Goddess Avtexia.
“Before I answer your question, there are a few things you should know about why I even granted Mathias’ wish, in this case, that the male witch had cursed the person he hated.” The woman with a small sun tattoo on her right arm at the top begins to answer the student’s questions. Atvertha only nodded, a sign that she had agreed to these conditions.
“For immortal gods and goddesses like us, intrigues that occur in the mortal world are commonplace. They only care about themselves. Sooner or later, you will see for yourself that they cannot be trusted. They often make noise and even deliberately fight witches, fairies, and mermaids. If now you think that what I said is just nonsense, then when you become a full-time goddess, you will surely feel the truth of my words. At that moment, I will not help you, because it will be your responsibility.”
The young goddess subconsciously raised an eyebrow when she heard her teacher’s words, and the Sun Goddess knew this moment, but she just pretended because she wanted to enjoy this situation a little longer. Goddess Avtexia seemed to enjoy her only daughter’s confusion.
A man carrying a trident seemed to arrive in front of a room. Without thinking, the immortal god entered there. Within a hundred meters, the palace owner could tell who was there because he heard a familiar voice. “Apparently the wife still teaches our daughter. If only Atvertha did not throw tantrums, especially having a relationship with that bloody mortal guy, then this event would never have happened,” he muttered softly.
Meanwhile, a red-eyed woman remained in her current position. Likewise, the disciple who listened to all her words. They had not realized if there was a man who was walking towards there. “Okay, back to the topic. You asked me earlier about why did I grant Mathias all his wishes, even though you told me it seemed unfair, right? Well, who said life is fair? If it really could be like that, then there would be no suffering in this world. Besides that, there is another answer to your question: witches have the right to curse anyone they hate, especially since the target has indeed hurt them, and indeed that person is the culprit.”
“But, isn’t that an act that hurts each other? Would not it be better if they forgive each other?” The virgin could not help but ask, even though she knew it was forbidden to do so because her teacher had not allowed that.
Goddess Avtexia was stunned for two seconds, then burst out laughing. This surprised Lord Helion and Atvertha because such a moment had never happened before. The man wearing the crown on his head quickened his pace because a lousy feeling had arisen in his heart. Meanwhile, the violet-eyed girl was nowhere to be found, even though she was terrified.
“What did you say? Witches are better off forgiving those who have wronged them? Who taught you that stupid thing? Listen, Kid. Witches have the right to eliminate anyone who has tormented them, humiliated them, and caused chaos in their lives. You can say that, because you have never had anything bad happen to you before. Soon, you will know.” Goddess Avtexia answered Atvertha’s question, grinning broadly.
That wallflower girl chose to remain silent because she saw the state of her mother, who looked worried. Without the two women realizing it, Lord Helion had arrived near them, but a man with a long silver beard was watching the movements of his beloved wife. The immortal god could only hope that Goddess Atvexia would be poured out her wrath directly on their daughter because such an act could ruin the plans that had been agreed upon.
The atmosphere in the place suddenly became tense because the anger of the Ruler of the Sun had not yet disappeared. Both Atvertha and Lord Helion took precautions by not making any moves not to be misunderstood by Goddess Avtexia. The aura all over his initially bright red body instantly turned black. This incident made a four-hundred-and-forty-year-old man spontaneously widen his eyes because of the unexpected change in his spouse.
In all the time I have been married to Avtexia, I have never seen her this angry. It is better for me to immediately take control of the situation because it could be fatal for Atvertha’s safety later. Our daughter did make a grave mistake, from the perspective of our kind, the immortal god and goddess, but that could all be corrected, Lord Helion thought as he searched for an idea that could appease the opposite sex’s anger.
The Lord of the Seas silently moved his lips, and then a transparent white light shot out from his trident. The light entered the body of his lovely wife, and the goddess, who was still angry at her biological daughter, did not realize it.
“Atvertha. Did you know that the moon can affect the tides?”
That question had succeeded in stealing the attention of the two women who had been there earlier. They turned towards the source of the sound and then saw a figure of a man who was so familiar. Unknowingly, the four hundred and twenty-year-old woman smiled, even though she still felt extreme irritation towards Avertha earlier. The brilliant goddess seemed to nod to her father, and a tremendous relief arose in her heart for some reason.
“Yes, Dad. I have read that the Moon can indeed cause sea tides. This is caused by the Moon’s gravity which can distort the oceans. For example, a full moon can cause high tides.” A young lady with thin eyebrows answered her father’s question happily. That moment stunned her parents and Goddess Avtexia secretly felt proud because her daughter could answer her dear husband’s questions.
“Good. You really learn. That was why we, I and your mom, had been giving you so many lessons, because the role of the Moon is important for life on Earth, one of them is sea water. You know that I control all the oceans on Earth, in mortal realm?” The dark brown-eyed man again asked Atvertha a question.
“Yes, Dad. I know you are the Lord of the Seas.” The girl, who had a height of one hundred and seventy-five centimeters, confirmed the other person’s words. On the other hand, the anger that had been burning within Goddess Avtexia had slowly been extinguished. Her aura was no longer black but was already golden yellow. In fact, the sinister grin had disappeared from her beautiful face.
“Great. You are our only daughter, Atvertha. We put the high hope on you and do not break it.” Lord Helion gave Atvertha a meaningful look when he said the last sentence. This made the Moon Goddess sad, even though she did not know why she felt this way.
A man who could make heavy rain accompanied by a storm turned to his wife, who looked normal. He smiled because his efforts to quell the opposite sex’s wrath finally paid off. Goddess Avtexia did the same action as her husband, while Atvertha only watched over her parents with many questions, but she kept silent.
“Honey, can I teach her? You can stay here if you want to,” Lord Helion asked softly.
“Sure, you can, Love. Yes, I will stay here to watch you and her,” replied Goddess Avtexia, who had returned to normal.
“Thank you, Honey,” said the man whose eyes turned green. He then turned to a seated young lady, who had been watching Lord Helion and Goddess Avtexia’s activities. “Atvertha, now I am going to teach you about the sea. Why do I have to do that to you today? Because it deals with so many living creatures: mortals, including witches, mermaids, mermen, and the animals that live in it. You should know if-”NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
