The World Of The Venerate: Everwhite
Chapter 217 - Committing acts of treason for the sake of the person considered family
“Ah..!”
Suddenly Zenef who was feeling confused, then surprised when he heard the sound of screaming, coming from the sky.
The vampire turned towards the sky, and was surprised even more when he saw a girl he knew was Zchaira falling down, which was from a higher direction, it appears Artemis is at high speed trying to catch up to the girl.
With a swift, Zenef also used his ability which in an instant disappeared appeared right under Zchaira, caught the girl, and then disappeared again.
“Eh...” Artemis who was chasing Zchaira, then surprised to see someone helping his daughter.
Although in a very short time he could not see the face that helped Zchaira, but the woman seems to suspect that the person who helped her daughter is a Vampireman man who is claimed to be the son of Lethis.
“Mother..!”
Suddenly Zchaira who had been on the surface, then called out to Artemis who was still floating in the air. The woman turned her head and saw Zchaira waving at her, where Artemis also saw Zenef near her daughter.
While moving towards Zchaira, Artemis put on a serious facial expression because she was a little wary of the Vampireman who had helped her daughter.
“You okay?” Artemis asked Zchaira.
“Iya mother..It is fortunate that the man helped me,” replied Zchaira while pointing at Zenef with a worried facial expression because he still felt doubtful that the Vampireman man only intended to help him.
“Thank you for helping my daughter..” Despite putting on a serious facial expression, without looking smiling or feeling happy, but Artemis still had to thank him because if he was late and could not help his daughter, then Zchaira would most likely experience something bad.
“Sama-sama.. And don't worry, I only intend to save the girl,” Zenef response.
Artemis then noticed the appearance of Zenef, where the Vampireman now looks like an ordinary human race with no pale skin color. Artemis believes that the change in appearance of the Vampireman man is most likely only to trick the citizens of Novacurve who they do not think that the man is one of the Vampireman race.
“Then we go first.. Once again thank you for helping my daughter,” said Artemis saying goodbye to Zenef, and again thanking the man.
“Sorry lady Artemis, I was actually looking for you guys earlier, because there is something I want to say..” Zenef said.
“Can I come with you guys, because this is related to Zchaira?” Zenef asked Artemis.
“We talked about it elsewhere.. Come with us now,” replied Artemis, then allow the Vampireman man to follow him with Zchaira.

Moments later, inside the inn of the Lightio team members, it appeared that Zenef was sitting in the main room with a tense expression as it was right in front of him Artemis, Kral, Illios, Astrapi, even Aphrodia was watching him with a serious and glaring expression as she wanted to know what the man was actually going to talk about.
“Can you look at me with a casual expression?” Ask Zenef.
**
“I feel sorry for that guy instead.”.
Still in the room, Zchaira, Rayvor, Flogaz, and Haniwa are seen watching Zenef, who is, but a little pity on the Vampireman man for feeling that Artemis and the others were about to conduct an interrogation.
**
“Alright, what do you want to say?” Ask Artemis.
Zenef then explained that after handing over the crystal stone to Aelacia earlier, the Venerate Machora Tira then gathered to discuss something. At that time, Zenef heard a statement from Aelacia, their World Venerate that the Lamiaman woman actually still wants to target the power that is in Zchaira, but is still waiting for the right time.
“Of course I thought that after we received the crystal stone, either Aelacia or the other Venerate will not do our main plan.”.
“Me and lady Lethis actually disagree with the woman's statement, but we as subordinates can not do anything.”.
“Even when I talk about this to you, it is actually an act of treason for the land of Machora Tira,”, Zenef said, explaining it to the Venerate Lightio.
Artemis and the others were immediately surprised to hear the statement from Zenef because they did not expect that their leader who was in the city still wanted to do a cunning tactic.
“Then.. If telling us is an act of treason, why did you tell us?” Ask Artemis.
“The first thing I actually do not want to do a sneaky thing because it can be said that now the land of Machora Tira and the land of Lightio is indeed running an alliance.”.
“And the second. Of course I assume that I consider that Zchaira is my family..It is undeniable that I who are of mixed descent have the same mother as you Miss Artemis,” reply Zenef.
“At least that's what I want to say.. If you don't want to think of me as a brother, then it doesn't matter..”.
After saying that to Artemis, Zenef then stood up from his seat, and was about to leave the lodging of the Lightio country teams.
“Wait..”.
Just as Zenef was about to leave the room, Artemis suddenly restrained him.
“Your name is Zenef right?” Ask Artemis.
“Iya..” Zenef replied.
“If so what is it possible that you can help us to inform if only Aelacia and other Venerate Machora Tira would do their plan?”
“Of course... I will try to tell you first before Aelacia and others do their plans..” Zenef said, accepting a request from Artemis.
Zenef then left the inn of the Venerate Lightio, while Artemis seemed speechless at the thought of the Vampireman who seemed quite different from the other Venerate Machora Tira.
***
Moments later after Zenef left, it appeared that the members of the Lightio team were about to prepare to leave for the Venerate tournament along with the top-tier Venerates who had come along with them to the city.
After all was ready and about to leave, suddenly Kral who was behind Aphrodia held the woman's hand.
“What's Kral?” Aphrodia asked, perplexed as to why the man had suddenly restrained her from leaving for the tournament arena.
“Today must be your turn..”.
“Of course, because until now I still have not got a fight turn Aphrodia asked back, feeling that it was likely that Kral wanted to encourage her personally.
“I want to encourage you, and try to win your match.” And it is true that Kral gave spirit to the woman.
“But you must remember not to use that power if you do feel desperate,” continued Kral speaking, suddenly discussing something that is forbidden not to be used by Aphrodia.
