Chapter 217: 7.16 Second Violet Star - Ellen and Erebus

Everyone can see the struggling light pixie within the ko ice spirit king's hand. This is a rare fairy that is said to directly serve the God of Light. They are rare creatures who possess a holy element. They were also considered as messengers of the light.

Now, this rare creature of light is captured and was about to be gifted to a young lady by the subordinate of that man whom her lord told her to say his message to. Her lord is the god of light which means she serves under Lucien. The little light pixie had the name called Ellen.

A few days ago before she ascended. She was living her life to the fullest in the Divine realm's light forest. Most light and holy-related races live in this forest when a holy element is abundant.

One day she was called over by their lord, God of Light, Lord Lucien. On her way to the temple she also bumped into her good childhood bad friend, Erebus. It seems that he was also called by his lord, God of Darkness, Lord Adrienne. Erebus is a dark fairy. He is a pixie like she does.

In the beginning, both of them were exhilarated by this opportunity of meeting their Lord only to be left dumbfounded in the end when they learned that the two of them would have to descend on the mortal plane and serve a human called Eirwen Night.

Neither of the two sovereign gods was unwilling to not go down on the lands of humans but the twin gods couldn't just descend without a medium. Because of this both of the two gods of light and darkness were so busy with the preparations. Well, it is the believers of the gods who would be making the preparations.

The decision of letting two pixies whose only affinity is their strongest point was made. Normally one would choose a stronger guardian if it's to serve God's beloved. Sadly these two foolish twin gods aren't willing to let anyone stay by their beloved while they themselves haven't done it on their own yet.

But right after learning that Eirwen Night had finally woke up from his long slumber, the twin gods, Lucien and Adrienne, suddenly felt that their human might run off without them knowing which is why the two gids choose to send someone down there to stay by the human's side and serve him until the twin gods had successfully descended. This is the real reason Ellen and Erebus were picked to descend and do their task first.

The pixies Ellen and Erebus could only descend to the mortal plane regardless of their choice while bringing priceless gifts the twin gods had wrapped for Eirwen Night.

Arriving at the mortal plane, the two pixies had headed towards the land of ice, Ivern. It's been a while since the two of them had seen this scenery. After all, there are no ice elemental creatures that have ascended all this time. The ice spirits were not weak. It could be said that they were stronger when talking about their capabilities.

Unfortunately, these ice spirits refuse to ascend telling the rest that they would only ascend once their lord is born. But hundreds of years passed and only Neige who reached demigod level became the highest level the ice spirit could possess. Neige's level is beyond the maximum level of 1000. But despite that, he couldn't feel any hints of enlightenment that would allow him to ascend.

In the beginning, everyone thought that it was because the ice spirits were weaker and extremely hard to control than the rest of the elements. That was until the ice spirit king Neige had beaten up all the Gods that dared to descend with intentions of bullying them. That they've learned that the strength of the ice elementals was just second to the twin gods. Except for not having a lord of their own, there were no problems with regard to other things.

The fairy races were extremely proud and playful by nature. No one could deny if someone says that the fairy race was the most mischievous race among every race.

This is why Ellen and Erebus planned to scare Eirwen Night as a play. They wanted to bully him for a bit. So when they met him the two acted haughty in his presence.

Ellen, the light fairy had spoken, "Human be proud I, Ellen, of the light pixie race had descended thanks to orders of the God of Light, Lord Lucien."

"I am Erebus. Came down with the same reason as above. A messenger sent by the God of darkness, Lord Adrienne." said the dark fairy. 

The two pixies had looked down on Eirwen Night who was currently eating some desserts like Ice cream with the other ice spirits had totally ignored the two pixies' arrival. The words they had spoken were turned deaf too. It was the feeling of hitting a pillow and there's no reaction from the other person at all. 

"Human! Did you not hear us?! We are telling you that the two of us were messengers of Gods! Be respectful towards us!" said Ellen as she glows like a bright light orb that is about to explode. 

Erebus who was silently observing the human in front of him currently had a frown on his face. He could feel nothing special towards normal. But it's more like looking through a film of mist, he couldn't read through this mortal at all. This made him feel uncomfortable while staring at Eirwen Night. 

What surprised them the most is the reactions of the ice spirits. In the beginning, those haughty ice spirits were ignoring them even after their arrivals but when they started to talk proudly against Eirwen that they've realized that a certain hint of malice was felt coming from those ice spirits.

"Know your place, pixies! This is your motherland but our... the ice spirits' territory."

"Who are you to use such a tone towards lord huh!?" 

"So annoying~ let's just kill them!" 

"So what if you guys are messengers of the Gods could your lords even come down to save you!" 

"Rude and mannerless things! You dare to shout at our lord. I'll turn you into an ice popsicle!"

The ice spirits' demeanors turned aggressive the moment the messengers had tried to look down on Eirwen Night. The temperature in the area had instantly dropped below negative degrees and other beings that aren't related to ice felt coldness beyond abnormality. The two pixies even felt their limbs slowly turning to ice.

It started from their thin wings being covered into frost, the bodies of the two pixies had lost the normal temperature and thus they've started shivering, even their teeth were chattering as they trembled all over. 

Ellen and Erebus thoughts at this moment:

'What the hell!? Why did they start attacking us!?' 

'C-Cold. So cold! They aren't holding back at all!' 

'Is that human that important!?' 

'Is Eirwen Night a special existence that's why the lords were acting like silly guardians in fear of losing him!?' 

It was at this moment the pixies moved their gaze to look at Eirwen Night's figure in the distance. They met his gaze and saw nothing but indifference and aloofness within those aureate orbs. He looks at the two of them like nonliving things. Yes! Like staring at the dead. Emotionless and Apathetic.

Ellen and Erebus shivered in fright. The chill that hit their bodies was even beyond the coldest winter they are now suffering into. It is what they've called the fear of death. 

'H-His... His eyes... Are scary~' 

'Why did meeting him felt like looking at the lords!!? This undeniable presence doesn't tell me!!?' 

'Is he a God? A newborn God which the ice elementals serve!!?'

As if answering all things that confused them, Neige, the demigod of Ivern had appeared out of nowhere and didn't even take a glance at those almost frozen messengers of the gods.

Neige ignores all others and goes down on one knee in front of Eirwen who is busy eating his homemade ice cream.

Neige spoke respectfully all the way, "My Lord I've gathered information about the avatars of Lord Lucien and Lord Adrienne. They all died overnight and started making preparations for the ritual which would allow them to descend in the mortal realm."

"Hm~ those two idiots really wish to descend? Does this mean Duke Damian of Kingdom Hart and the Pope of Holy Land Agios had also died? If they do then... Those twin morons are serious when with their plans of coming down. Well~ that's interesting on its own as well." responded Eirwen Night with a cunning smile on his ethereal appearance. It made him look like a mischievous goddess especially when hearing such an alluring voice paired with that androgynous face of his. He looks so inhuman at this moment. 

Only then did Erebus and Ellen realize the human whom their lords were obsessed with was not an ordinary human at all. No, it is better not to call him a human being at all. There is no human with such an overwhelming presence much less than this of the temperament of treating other living things lightly as if their existence meant nothing to the other person. 

This gave them the feeling as if they were meeting another god. Ellen and Erebus fall into quietness at this moment. 

"Oh~ finally shutting up, are we? Neige sees what these two need. Afterward, capturing them would be a great gift for that silly little girl in Kingdom Hart. She should have reached adulthood after two years. Those can be sent as gifts as they were both uncontracted." said Eirwen Night.

Neige replies, "They seem to bear some gifts for the lord. What do you wish for me to do about it?" 

"Keep only the ones those two idiots had sent. As for the rest, you may have it with the rest. Let me take a nap first. When I wake up I'll be attending the funerals of the pope and the duke." said Eirwen Night before taking his nap after eating.

The last thing Ellen and Erebus could remember is that they were directly captured by this Demigod name Neige and were now presented like gifts towards a female human called Angela Evans.

Currently at the castle within the center of Hart's Kingdom. Neige is now presenting the light and dark pixies to Lady Evans as Eirwen Night's gift to her. The young lady didn't question where the two pixies came from and made a contract with them. But unlike the life and eath contract she shares with Snowball, the contract Neige had opened for them is a master-servant contract with Angela Evans as masters and the pixies as her servants.

Because of this contract, Angela Evans's affinity with light and dark attributes had increased. She is especially compatible with the holy element. The sudden increase of her level made Lady Evans happy she is now level 20.

Neige also passed the gifts for the king and the archmage. They were swords and wands which fit the two greatly. Those weapons were high-tier ones that cannot be bought in human lands. Those were taken from the warehouse of the Ice spirits.

Seeing such luxurious gifts made Bela and the other two jealous. Especially true towards Angela contracting elemental pixies which only exist in the Divine Realm.

Neige spoke towards the two downhearted pixies.

"Make sure to protect and serve her well. She is my Lord's younger sibling," said Neige.

Ellen and Erebus understood the meaning of his words. They knew that as long as they've served the little girl well that they would be free to do anything else. Helping her reach godhood is also not bad as they could feel countless blessings on Angela Evans.

"We will make her the future Saintess!"

"Please leave it to us. As long as we are around she will be safe."

Ellen and Erebus had spoken. They accepted their fate as this young lady's contracted spirits. Moreover, with her body is an extremely powerful contracted ice spirit. Clearly, she had also contracted a guardian class spirit which is even stronger than the two of them. Knowing that they've contracted a fateful human with special destiny made them excited. Pixies were the type to like challenges.

Afterward, Neige took his leave with a question. He didn't return to Ivern right away but instead waited in the Spirit forest for someone's arrival. It didn't take a while for Araysh to appear. He removed his disguise as the human duke and walked towards the other as the dark elf and subordinates of the twin gods.

"You've called for me, Neige?" asked Araysh with a doting smile on his face.

Neige who had always been emotionless had suddenly glared at Araysh. His face is distorted in worry and anger.

"Are you crazy!? Do you think Lord Hei had changed just because his memories had returned? If not because it was your Lord who ordered his assassination, that dagger of yours wouldn't even touch a hem of Lord Hei's clothes!" scolded Neige. No, he is reprimanding him as Yun Ming.

Before the last world had ended the Lord God of the Nether System had lessened the restriction on prisoner Yun Ming. He could now OOC at least in front of their group.

Araysh smiles as he listens to Neige's complaints. 

"I only did it because it was the Lord's orders. Either way, I don't have enough courage to do it for the second time," he said as he gently held Neige's hands. "Were you watching the whole time?" 

Neige let the dark elf hold his hand in comfort. 2 years ago when he saw him stabbed Lord Hei's heart in front of the Lord God he was shocked with worry that Araysh would be killed on the spot by either of the two. Though he knew that the lord god of this world would not fully awaken his dominant persona, Lord Hei dying in front of him would still affect him. His soul even as a fragment would in no way, not feel nothing for this kind of scene.

The death of your fated person. No one in their right mind would be able to bear such a painful scene especially for a long-time couple who had spent many worlds together.

Neige spoke, "Any way you should be careful next time. I need to return to Lord Hei's side."

Araysh hugs him and says, "Stay for a moment. Lord Hei wouldn't even notice if you are gone in a few hours."

The two stayed in that position a few hours before once again separating to do their own task. These two had been supporting the lords in every world and all of their actions were taken in accordance to the wants of their two superiors.
