Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter II Chapter 60

A speck of energy light from the remnant soul will of the ancient hero floated above Alice's palm.

Nyx was grateful in her heart because she was not rash to attack Alice, she also felt relieved after Alice forgave her mistake. It was because of him that Cliff and the demon race used the opportunity to destroy the Solus kingdom and the Strongfort family.

With Alice's current soul power coupled with the power of an ancient hero that once shocked the heavens and earth, Nyx really had no chance of winning. But the expression Nyx showed was not fear but as if a shadow of sadness was emanating from her eyes. Alice glanced into his eyes without Nyx knowing. He wanted to trace Nyx's memories and see what had happened between him and the ancient hero. But Alice abandoned her intentions. In addition to that ability to use a lot of energy he also did not want to dig into the secrets of others secretly.

"Stay here, I'll help you. I'll drag Erebos in front of you." Said Alice after sipping her tea.

Nyx smiled slightly, according to him Alice said that just to comfort him. But for Alice, she was determined to do just that.

Thousands of years ago before the hero was born to Aria. Erebos was Nyx's brother, and they were created by a powerful ancient god named Chaos. At first their life with the other gods was fine. However, ever since Erebos descended into the human world, something changed him. I don't know since when greed eroded itself.

Erebos attitude slowly changed and became 180° opposite of his usual self. One of them is his love for Nyx who initially as a family and siblings turned into excessive obsession and possessiveness. Erebos also became uncontrollable with the strange power he gained after venturing in Aria. One day, Erebos kills Chaos, his father.

That horrible sight was so heartbreaking to Nyx. Now he no longer kept Erebos in his heart as a family but as an enemy. Nyx who is not strong against the strange power of Erebos chose to escape and hide somewhere.

When Nyx stopped telling the story, Alice who was still curious asked about the continuation but Nyx shook her head and was silent as if she did not want to bring up the continuation of the story.

Nyx walked to the side of the bridge and saw a beautiful view of the ocean. Nyx felt that she might like this place even though she had to give up her desire to get a body. "Of course, I can stay here quietly anyway. You Nian, I mean Alice is a strong human girl. I sensed that his Soul was not a soul that came from this world" Nyx muttered propping her chin on the bridge barrier. "Even.., she chose Alice." Continue with a quieter voice. What Nyx meant about the word he was the figure of that ancient hero.

Alice's eyes followed Nyx who was called the goddess who was walking on the side of the bridge. Although they live for thousands of years, their life experiences are very different. Therefore, Alice sees Nyx is not much different from the teenage girl who just knew the bitter sweetness of the world.

Alice opened her palm once more, she placed it on the table and looked at the rest of the soul will she had obtained on the altar. Unintentionally, the will of the soul was absorbed into him while he was making a breakthrough. "Although this soul's will was weak but with this kind of strength alone, he was able to protect the place from the monsters." Alice thought as she recalled that valley where there were no monsters around, before the will of the soul entered her body. "I can't imagine how powerful the ancient hero was in his lifetime."

A few hours before Alice was sucked into the black hole.

Outside the temple Andrew and Amy are tasked with overseeing and protecting Alice become increasingly agitated as they can do nothing about it. They could only see Alice at the entrance to the temple.

Andrew decided to go report the matter as soon as possible to his Master. Riding the griffin, he leaves Amy to stand guard.

It doesn't take hours. Andrew made it to the academy after he forced his griffin into a race as quickly as possible.

Andrew immediately rushed to Marianne's room. Upon arrival, Marianne's anger flared up when she heard Andrew's report. Marianne squeezed the glass in her hand until it broke apart. He changed his clothes and took his sword.

The night is so long. On her way over Andrew's griffin, Marianne can't let go of her anxiety for Alice. Andrew's broad back was noticeably shrinking as he had to feel the pressure of his Master's strength that was behind him.

Amy's side began to panic, her face paled as she imagined how she would report what she had just seen to her Master. Amy bit her finger, she immediately turned her head and jumped forward when she saw Marianne coming. Cold sweat began to appear on his temples.

Seeing Amy's gurgle, Marianne's feelings get worse. "Tell me what just happened."

Amy glanced fearfully at Andrew and looked back at Marianne, her eyes pulling down as she could not see Marianne's expression. Amy looked down with guilt for not being able to fulfill the duties of her Master. "Ta-tadi.I heard an explosion and some temple people became panicked. I also had a chance to feel the terrible power earlier."

Without a word Marianne made the atmosphere between them become heavier. Andrew and Amy could do nothing to break the silence. With a sword in her hand, Marianne called them to head to the temple.

When the two temple guards saw the three people walking over, they widened their arms to the side with the intention of restraining the three from entering the temple.

Marianne glanced at them in turn. "I'd like to meet the Temple Head, Saintess or whoever your higher-ups are." Cold words Marianne. Marianne was not so rash to act right before hearing their explanation.

"I'm sorry, but we're not allowing anyone to go inside." Reply to a guard.

Marianne furrowed her brows. He could not wait, however, he had to see Alice immediately. Before she knew Alice, who turned out to be her sister, Marianne had been watching her ever since she knew the prophecy. Marianne, who had forgotten about it, became wary of the temple people when she remembered that there were still people other than her who were after Alice. And that's why he's here with the intention of taking Alice away.

When her hands were ready to knock out the two guards, the huge door opened and a pink-haired woman walked over with a gloomy face.

Marianne knew that person, she was Saintess Liliana who was also Alice's best friend. Immediately Marianne restrained Lilia by standing in front of her. "Miss Saintess, I'm looking for Miss Alicia. Can I meet him?

Lilia was silent, she looked at Marianne at a glance and saw a sword in her arms. Lilia sighed. "Why is the Princess here?" His mind. "Are you a friend of Miss Alicia?"

Without hesitation Marianne immediately replied "Of course, we're very close."

Seeing Marianne's earnestness, Lilia replied to her in a low tone. "I'm sorry I can't explain it here. Do you have free time? I'll explain it in the car."

"All right."

Lilia's eyes glazed over, it could be seen that she had just cried. What the hell's been going on?
