Chapter 4 - Forbidden love

The old man continued, saying " Before The Ruler had Mystic, he was very immature and reckless, even after he met Mystic's mother I still didn't change. I'd say he got even crazier, doing everything he could to impress her, but as soon as Mystic was born his whole world changed."

The other man was kinda embarrassed because he valued himself as a person who knew a lot but after talking with this man he felt like an ignorant child.

The man was still shocked by the fact that Ares and Mystic used to date, but the idea of The Ruler being a reckless person was hard to wrap his head around. The Ruler was known for being calm and stoic, so for him to be reckless is hard to believe.

"The Ruler loved his daughter and was very overprotective. The main reason all the young men are afraid is that her father, Ares, was different.

It's not that he wasn't afraid of The Ruler, it's just that he loved Mystic more than he was afraid." The old man said, then he continued

"The Ruler was not happy about this at all. He was afraid that his daughter was getting taken away from him and didn't like Ares because of it. In this case, The Ruler was being a bit immature. He was also in a dilemma because he wanted his daughter to be happy but he didn't like Ares."

"Ares and Mystic dated for a while and The Ruler didn't enjoy any of it, he wanted them to break up....then when Ares caught with a demon, he was happy because everyone would now look at Ares as a traitor, meaning that Mystic has to break up with him." The. an old man said.

"Can you tell me specifically how he got caught with a demon and why?" At this point, The other man completely calmed down, because he wanted to learn more about the past.

"A half-hour later he was found walking with a demon, nobody knew who saw him why he was with a demon but it seemed like nobody cared. More and more people started to talk about it and more and more believed that he was betraying them. In my opinion, I feel like it was very Illogical and that many of them weren't thinking straight. I don't think he was with a demon, I think he was framed. Even if he was with a demon, Ares at least deserved to explain why he did it."

The other man thought that this old man was alive when this all happened, or else there was no way he could tell this story as if he was there.

The old man looked down with a sad face as it seemed like he remembered something unpleasant "After a while of people talking about it The Ruler Made an official statement, basically he said that Ares would be branded as a traitor and banned forever and if he failed to cooperate they would have to use force, it's sad to think about. Just before everyone thought he was a traitor, he helped them fight against demon attacks many times but after one bad thing they forget all that."

The other man then asked "What afterwards?" listening closely to what the old man had to say

"After The Ruler made that statement, Ares declared war against heaven. Everybody thought he was crazy and arrogant and overestimating his power. The Ruler kept his word and sent out many of his men to go and attack Ares, The Ruler must've also thought Ares was being arrogant...but when the soldiers arrived they were quickly overwhelmed and easily defeated.. Ares was ruthless."
