Chapter 333 Becoming An Ally

The lavish party continued throughout the night. But everyone was also too tired to carry on, and many had already sunk into a deep sleep.

Kyros sat down at the top of the Temple and watched the remaining people joyously eat and drink while the wearied ones fell into sleep.

The Emberdons, Mezal, and the rest of the Steele family, including Reptilia, were also asleep as their soul was required to recover.

Scarlet tried her best to stay awake, but the spell which forced her to age five years older had taken a toll on her, and she fell asleep.

Mechiel rose to the top of the Temple and sat down next to Kyros.

"Lord Kyros," Mechiel spoke.

"Come and sit with me." Kyros smiled and offered the spot right next to him.

Mechiel sat down and observed the view. Middle's night sky had some bright lights that looked like stars.

"I heard that this was a flat-earth dome. I don't understand how this planet works. I only know of the Planesworld, and a few days ago, I only thought that this was the kinds of planets there are..." Mechiel gazed up the sky.

"A Flat-Earth like this is basically a giant dome. Most planets and heavenly bodies like the Yggdrasil Tree of the Planesworld have their own specific ways to protect themselves from the celestial bodies that move in the sky and shield themselves from the great Darkness that Separates. Between planets is darkness like this." Kyros brought out his dark powers.

"It's thick darkness that stops life from continuing. And when the great cosmos were divided, various gods and fallen began to use their different powers to create all kinds of planetary bodies that could sustain life. Of course, this Middle is different as it's probably not in a fixed space or a fixed time. But if this was ordinary flat earth, that dome protects against the darkness and reflects and absorbs light."

"Amazing, Lord Kyros. You know a lot."

"Not as much as I want to, I'm afraid. Mechiel. I know that I may have forced our relationship, and I even used the Charm Fallen's power to spur your emotions. But from here on out, I want things to progress naturally."

"Lord Kyros, It is my honor to have you." Mechiel bowed.

"No. That won't do. I can't really say anything about our mysterious pasts, and previous life and destiny as the Blood Calamity are still in you. But our relationship was never forced. Instead, love blossomed naturally, and I intend to keep it that way." Kyros smiled.

Mechiel was silent, and she only smiled back at Kyros.

"What happens when we go back? The other half of the Blood Calamity is there. Won't they share the memories of her soul?"

"No. She merged with your soul to survive. The memories won't be shared unless she detaches and goes back to the Blood Calamity and fuses with half of her soul. So everything that transpired here will be kept a secret." Kyros answered.

"May I rest my head over your feet?" Kyros asked.

"Oh..! Um... Su-Sure, Lord Kyros!"

Kryos smiled and did so.

"I am not doing this out of perversion. You don't know how calm I feel in doing this." Kyros smiled.

Kyros recalled how the wild, berserked him had to rest his head over the little vampire slave who served him. And when they grew older, Kyros had also rested his head just like this when the two were forced to work together in an unknown land.

And just like that, Kyros fell asleep.

"Lord Kyros?" Mechiel was alarmed.

"Relax. He's just asleep." The Blood Calamity calmed Mechiel with an annoyed tone.

"That brat really is selfish. Right after he tells you that he wants you and him to have a natural progression in love, he does this dumb thing!" The Blood Calamity scowled.

"Why are you annoyed? We share the same soul. I know you like this. Was it so amazing when he was teaching you the Celestial Code? I know that the sense of awe and amazement was not my emotions." Mechiel sneered.

"Y-You! It's the power of the Charmed Fallen working against me!"

"Sure it is." Mechiel smiled.

"Still, I'm glad that Lord Kyros grew older. It would have been weird before." Mechiel laughed.

"Is he asleep?" Martha appeared.

"Lady Martha! Yes."

"Oh? I wondered when he would run out of energy. The soul he released back then was no joke. To think it even surpassed the power of that Cardinal. Oh well, I guess I'll ask him tomorrow."

"Ask him what, Lady Martha?"

"The marriage ceremony between Aron and me. And I guess Lady Diana would also want to renew her vows to Lord Branze. Not to mention Lady Reptilia and Hunter has to go through that. I take it that he hasn't proposed to you yet?"

"Um... N-No..." Mechiel nodded.

"Don't worry about it. Since I'm here, the history that binds you and him should be similar to that of Lady Diana and Lord Branze anyway. I want to talk with the Blood Calamity."

"Her? Alright..." Mechiel nodded.

"Speak, lizard." The Blood Calamity spoke.

"Are you here to offer more threats?"

"No. On the contrary, I was going to ask you to join us."

"... What?! Join you?!" The Blood Calamity was enraged.

"Lady Martha!" Mechiel also exclaimed.

"It's the perfect arrangement. The conflict between Fate and Destiny has set the direction of everyone in this world. Their lives are determined to be at odds with the other side. But now, we have you, inside Mechiel making you two, a Neutral. Mechiel is clearly Fate with the mysterious past that she and Kyros have. Fate arranged it for you to be here. Lord Kyros would soon offer you this anyway. If someone from Destiny joins our side, it will be one of the few things that we can forever change that disrupts the future leading to the End."

"Ha! Why would I do that?! Are you-"

"It's very clear to us that you like Lord Kyros. And it's quite understandable. Lord Kyros is perhaps the most amazing being ever to grace this universe. And you are sharing the soul of his beloved! You feel what Mechiel feels and see it as if it was you. I don't care if you're a being that existed for many millennia. How can you not fall for someone who can use a code to which he had no prior blessing? In fact, with your powers, I'm sure you've never had seen anyone worthy of you. So how about it? How about you serve Lord Kyros?"

"I will never turn my back against Lord Destiny!"

"I know you would answer this way. I'm just here to plant the seed. But Lord Kyros is Mysterion. That which is previously thought to be impossible will be possible. Scarlet has told me of the Code that she has. And, interestingly, you and Mechiel are Fated to be together. It's as if Fate has altered the very destiny that you were supposed to have. I'm telling you now that your Fate is with us. Even if you manage to return to your main soul... I wonder... Can your heart remain an enemy to Kyros?" Martha smiled and jumped off.

The Blood Calamity was silent.

As Martha landed, she could not help but smirk.

"Was that enough?" She asked.

"Yes, Master." Puff answered.

"It seems that you have been hiding your cunning. Lord Kyriachos was right. You are of a cunning kind."

"Lord Kyros must have received this power from Lord Tyrannus himself. We are of the same breed."

"But why the sudden revelation of your true cunning? You even have been hiding this from me, although Lord Kyriachos already warned, and I did sense it.

""Seeing Lord Kyros defeat the Cardinal made me believe that he is a man of great cunning. I've been holding back my judgment since the start. After all, we dragons made our bets in a time long ago, and look where it got me? But when Lord Kyros managed to kill Heralcus and overcome the powerful form of Destiny I was convinced. Dragons value strength? No. That Qara and that Pyrestarter are those of the weakest bloodline. The true dragons, honor with and cunning above all."

"It seems your bond and link with me is not that strong. You've been hiding quite a lot."

"I will not deny it. I'm sure that Lord Kyros even knows of it. I doubt he doesn't see through my schemes. But now, I am officially coming on board the side of Fate. Master... I need to go to the Dark Sea. A heritage of great power may be there."

"Oh? Tell me about it..." Martha smiled.

"The Planesworld was a battleground of the strongest dragons. There is a reason why the Nephilim's Temple was placed here. The Planesworld has many histories of Gods and Fallens. And as for the dragons, the Great Black Dragon, Tiamat, died in the Dark Sea!"
