The World Of The Venerate: Everwhite
Chapter 18 - Zchaira leaves the northern region
“Mother, is this the barrier you said?” Ask Megathirio.
“How do we get through it?”
“Quiet, this is what I will handle soon.” After Artemis said that, the woman quickly flew into the air.
Artemis conjured up a sizable magic diagram on it and then concentrated.
“Difesa sillabare.. Holy elritch barrier release.” Both Artemis eyes emit a bright light after using a magic technique to disable the barrier it creates.
The barrier that covered the entire northern part of the land Lightio momentarily emitted light, and then slowly began to fade.
Now the barrier covering the northern hinterland isolated by the women instantly disappeared.
“Hei sister, we know very well that mother has been the strongest person in this area. However, only this time I saw her ability.”.
“Do you not realize that all this time we can actually develop into a powerful Venerate because it has two parents who look like monsters.”.
Megathirio was amazed to see Artemis' ability to create and remove an invisible barrier that almost covered much of the north of the country.
The young man was convinced that he and his brother could potentially become top-tier Venerate just like their father and mother would.
“I also know that. But, I feel like I will be stronger than you, brother,” Zchaira replied.
“More powerful than me? How can you say that?”
“You must not have known that my strength could even restore the heart that had been destroyed to full again.”.
“What? Can you do something like that?”
Megathirio is shocked to hear Zchaira's statement, which recounts when his younger brother was attacked by a vampire named Joker earlier. The girl received a fatal wound that was even very difficult to save, but miraculously the wound could be healed to make her avoid death.
*
“It turns out that power is beyond my expectations.” Megathirio had previously thought that the power of the sacred being within Zchaira was only limited to preventing the girl's illness from recurring.

After their conversation was over, Artemis went back down to everyone below.
Hephaistos looked at Artemis, but upon seeing the man's gaze, Artemis immediately turned her face the other way.
“So you decided to come too?” Ask Hefaistos.
“Of course.. After all not the position of deputy leader of the country is still empty since I resigned..”.
Hephaestus responded with a smile to Artemis' words, pleased to see Artemis finally returning to lead the land of Lightio with him.
“Alright then, let's go.. The world is waiting for you..”.

Moved to the western region of Lightio, where a young man named Kral, who had previously been known to be the brother of Zchaira, appeared to meet a man and a woman in a room.
“Kakak, Finally you came too,” said a man, welcoming the young man named Kral.
“What are you guys talking about?”
“I just got a vision that our family will be back.”.
“Our family? Who?” Ask the young man named Kral, still not understand the explanation of the woman.
“Mothers and our sisters.”
“Really?” Hearing this, the young man named Kral was shocked.
The mother and younger siblings were Artemis, Megathirio and Zchaira, two of whom were children of Artemis and Hephaestus.
Whether what happened after Artemis left the town of Hawkngson a few years ago, her three children could be in the western region of Lightio, diamana became a place for Venerate who had a different view with the leaders of the Lightio country.
“It turns out after the incident just now that we can meet with them again,” said Kral while putting a happy expression on his face.
“But, what if mom later finds out that we're not there?” Ask the Kral brothers.
“Quietly, as we will go welcome them,” replied Kral.
Hearing this, the two young brothers were shocked.
“Not like that.. We go there just to visit..”.

At night, the ship boarded by Zchaira and others was sailing through the giant lake area to the Workyen region.
On board the ship, Artemis and her two children were watching the night sky filled with bright stars.
“After nearly sixteen years of living in Wiaminnota, we finally return to our real residence,” said Artemis.
“Mother, did you say back to where we live? Was I born then?” Ask Zchaira, curious.
“Yes, sixteen years ago, when you were just a few months old, you showed me the abnormalities that Venerate often suffered when they were born.”.
“Therefore we go to the northern region to meet the dragon of fertility.. By having its power you can avoid the abnormality.”.
“But it also makes you often targeted by others.. Therefore without thinking long mother was forced to settle in the region, by bringing you and Megathirio.”.
After Artemis told this, Hephaestus came to meet the three of them.
“You still haven't slept?” Ask the man.
“Sleeping on a running ship makes me less comfortable,” replied Artemis.
“Rather than keep telling me something related, you better tell me how you two met.. Mother, you and master Hefaistos are not from the same clan.” Suddenly Zchaira asked either Artemis or Hefaistos to tell the story of their first encounter.
Hearing this, both Artemis and Hephaestus seemed to blush in shame.
“Colah... I want to listen to it..”.
“Alright, I will tell you.” However, due to a plea from their daughter, Artemis reluctantly agreed.
“This story began exactly twenty-five years ago.. In our residence Wiaminnota area... Mother first met with Hefaistos, your father.”.
–1 September 2999–
Twenty-five years ago, in the Wiaminnota area of the northern interior of the Land of Lightio, nineteen-year-old Artemis was in the middle of the forest, aiming her arrow at a deer.
Felt the shot will be right on target, the woman immediately removed her arrows until sliding right into the animal's vital organs.
The deer momentarily thrashed until shortly began to weaken and unconscious.
At that time Artemis also approached the animal and then began to take parts of the body needed on the animal.
Artemis suddenly whistled, and a horse came toward her. The woman carried the piece of venison onto the horse, then rode it and left the place.
***
A few kilometers on a horse, the woman finally arrived at the village where she lived.
After arriving there, Artemis immediately lowered his hunting results from the horse.
At the same time the woman was astonished to see the residents gathered in the room.
Curious without paying any more attention to the results of his hunt, Artemis went to the people who were gathering.
“What's up?” Artemis asked one of the people.
“Eh, you have arrived.. Soldiers from the capital region came here to meet the village elder,” replied one of the residents.
Then Artemis's gaze was fixed on the two soldiers who were waiting in front of the village elder's place.
The woman approached the two men, who were none other than Hephaistos and Lucierence.
Artemis's view became serious when he felt the pressure of the two men's power.
*
“They don't seem like ordinary soldiers,” Artemis said inwardly.
**
“Sorry to disturb you.. But, what need are you here for?” Ask Artemis.
“We need to come here? Who are you?” Hephaistus asked back with a cynical expression.
