Doro encountered a white-haired girl.
Her white hair was more dazzling than her dim halo, and the feathers behind her looked rather disheveled, completely different from the appearance of other Angels.
Doro sensed a different aura from this girl, instinctively realizing that she was searching for him.
So, he quickly pulled the girl into the curtain given by Mohe.
"Ah! My Hero!"
The girl’s eyes sparkled with light. Her petite figure reminded him of Mohe, as most of the girls around Doro were voluptuous, with Mohe being the only petite type, and even Mohe had a rather alluring deanor. However, Doro personally found Mohe’s usual appearance to be more approachable. When she beca alluring, her personality seed to turn sowhat aloof, though that was also quite charming — it was mainly a matter of personal preference.
The eyes of the girl before him, however, were different from Mohe’s. These eyes resembled those of species from the Celestial Realm, very counterintuitive.
Ordinarily, Mohe’s eyes were distinct in black and white, with a pitch-black pupil in the center, seemingly deep enough to contain everything in the world. However, the eyes of this species had pure white in the very center, and on the outside, where one would expect the whites of the eyes, it was black — could such eyes really see anything?
Though Doro had his doubts, upon hearing the girl’s words, he seed to understand sothing.
"You are... the Goddess!"
"Yes, my dear Hero!" The girl suddenly hugged Doro, tears even welling up in her eyes. "I have been watching over you for a very long ti!"
The Goddess watched over her Hero, the Hero she chose, she watched for a very long ti?
There were many questions they wanted to ask. All three of them here had significant doubts they wished to inquire about, but her words guided the direction of their attention.
"A very long ti... but I am only in my thirties?"
The ti scale for long-lived species is different, as seen from Mohe’s previous attitude. She didn’t care at all about a span of decades or hundreds of years. She had lived through many units of asurent counted in "ten thousand years", so a re thirty-so years was indeed too short.
So short that Mohe wouldn’t even take it to heart, and correspondingly, the Goddess should be the sa.
Yet she spoke of "a long ti".
For an eternal being, just how long a ti is considered "a long ti"?
The girl released Doro, wiping away the tears from the corner of her eyes: "My Hero, I know there are many questions in your heart, I will slowly answer them for you..."
Her gaze appeared extrely earnest: "Though there are so urgent things to do, there is no rush to such an extent. I can answer all of your doubts. You probably don’t understand why I said I have been waiting for you for a long ti."
Doro nodded, and the other two girls looked at them with considerable caution.
"Indeed, you were only born thirty-so years ago, but, my Hero." Her eyes revealed a kind of nostalgia, "The ti I have waited for you has already exceeded ten thousand years. It is not just ten thousand years."
Charlette and Feiker both showed a shocked expression. However, Doro’s expression was very calm, and he seed unmoved: "Waiting for ? Waiting for soone like ?"
"No, no, not waiting for soone like you, just you, only you, the unique existence." Julia looked deeply at Doro, her gaze not appearing to lie. The bizarre pupils revealed a unique sincerity, "I don’t know if Modoh ever told you about ."
"...She did."
"How did she introduce ?"
"She said that you chose to guide the life you created, but in the end, you were destined to be devoured by the life you created, and then die."
Julia nodded: "That evaluation is indeed objective, though I don’t think she’s that much better either... However, my Hero, you should perhaps know deeper matters; back then, I didn’t answer Modoh’s question, but I can give you the answer to that question."
"What?"
The Goddess did not answer the Demon King’s question.
It undoubtedly piqued one’s curiosity, even if Doro would never say: "I have no interest in this at all."
That would clearly be nonsense.
Julia’s gaze trembled slightly, as if she was recalling the events of the past: "Speaking of which, before that, I ask you one question, how did Modoh describe the relationship between her and ?"
"She said you were once considered to be lovers."
"...Really?"
"Really. But she also said that no relationship remains eternal and unchanged, no matter how everlasting sothing seems at the ti, it will eventually change."
"Is that so?" Julia’s expression was sowhat complex, making it difficult to understand her thoughts. She thought of Mohe, whom she t earlier. The other party didn’t have the tone one should have when speaking to a lover — perhaps because she was rely an Evil Spirit of Julia?
She restrained this thought and continued: "Once, when our paths were inevitably diverging, Modoh asked why I had to go to the Celestial Realm. If it was only a struggle, the ground or the ocean could also be a battlefield—there was no reason for to create the Celestial Realm. At that ti, I did not answer Modoh."
