Chapter 231: 7.30 Second Violet Star - God\'s Avatar
Neige wanted to ignore the man and at the same time scold him for being rude towards Eirwen Night. He was about to open his mouth to reprimand the stupid thing in front of him but paused when he heard the former\'s voice in his head.
Eirwen: {Let them take the lead. We will only use the token only when it\'s necessary. Use anything as long as it\'s useful. The one in front of you is definitely an avatar of God. The God of Wind, Baron Chen, though that isn\'t his real face at all. Don\'t let them notice me, Ming.}
Neige responded in his mind: {As you wish, Lord Hei!}
He took a step forward, hiding Eirwen\'s figure behind his back, blocking the baron\'s line of sight.
"What do you need, Baron? My younger brother and I are here for personal business. Do not get involved." says Neige.
The coldness within Neige\'s words made the Baron tremble instinctively meeting those icy eyes.
Baron Chen lowered his head and said, "Please calm your anger. We aren\'t here to harm you or your brother. We were here to lend our help. This little one could help you and your brother enter the Empire without lining up!"
Neige narrowed his eyes and stared at the baron who was avoiding his eyes. It was at this time that Eirwen started acting like an innocent little brother. He lightly grabs his elder brother\'s sleeve while acting delicate, timid younger brother.
"Eis-gege~ Schnee is dizzy. Too hot~" says Eirwen while trying to make his eyes big and adorable.
This cute persona Eirwen is acting on made Neige and System Yue shiver in the chill. It is not like they haven\'t seen Lord Hei acting but this is the first time he played a role of a weaker one. It made the two extremely uncomfortable.
[Host... Please stop... It\'s scary... ~~]
"Shut up!" responded Eirwen in his mind.
[Host. It\'s not only me. Look at Mingming, he froze when you acted cute just now. His brain stops working.]
Eirwen and System Yue looked at Neige who was standing in front of them. His eyes were empty and looking at the far horizon as if he lost his soul.
Eirwen sighed and spoke to Neige using telepathy like before.
Eirwen: {Ming wake up!}
The familiar cold and stern voice startled Neige and his soul returned.
Neige: {Yes sir!}
Baron Chen looked weirdly at Neige when he suddenly stopped replying.
"Sire are you alright?" asked the baron.
"I... am. I would like it if you show us the direction to the Adventurer\'s guild," said Neige after finally calming down.
The baron smiled and accepted Neige\'s words. He bows his head down to show his greatest respect.
Baron Chen, "Then please let us escort you to the guild hall and prepare your residence." he said.
It was at this point that Eirwen could no longer stay silent. He is okay with others accompanying them for a short moment but to prepare where they would live when they were nothing but strangers, is something he would not like at all. He loves silence and hates the crowd. Interactions were only done as long as necessary.
Eirwen spoke with his usual tone and icy temperament. He looks at the Baron without expression on his face and raises his chin a bit high as if looking down on the latter.
"Directions were welcome. As for the residence, there is no need. My brother can look for a place to stay on our own." says Eirwen with a smile.
But to others, they could only see the coldness converging within those black eyes showing glints of gold at this moment. This time not only the baron felt chilled meeting the young man\'s eyes, even the knights whose Instincts were heightened by experience unconsciously touched their swords.
This reaction made Neige stand in front of Eirwen with vigilance as he glared at the knights who dared to touch their weapon in front of his lord.
Neige spoke, "If you dare to pull your swords in front of my lord... I will end you!"
The moment the word lord was mentioned startled not only the baron by the other Gods avatars watching from the shadows. They instantly forget to hide themselves properly and their figures are visible to everyone\'s eyes.
This time Neige took full guard and removed all disguises. He placed Eirwen Night at the position where he would be fully protected even the invisible ic pixies from before had all placed themselves in front of their lord while surrounding all angles that they may be attacked from. This time the guard on Eirwen is 100 times firmer than 2 years ago. It seems that the failure from when he died before was never forgotten by these ice pixies.
\'My lord please leave it to us!\'
\'We will definitely protect you this time!\'
\'I will freeze anyone who comes closer to our lord!\'
The God\'s Avatar as was told was nothing but mortal vessels that possess God\'s soul wisps. They would sometimes act like mere puppets when God\'s soul awakens.
Baron Chen suddenly stopped trembling and his eyes turned emerald at this moment, obviously, the in control is no longer the original baron but the God who left a blessing in his body transforming him to become a God\'s Avatar. Now that his irises turned emerald in color, the one dominant in that body is no longer the baron but the god that blessed him.
"Lord? Ice Spirit Neige, since when did you have a lord to serve? Who is that mortal you are calling as lord?" asked the one in the Baron\'s body.
The ice spirit king stared at the baron whose atmosphere suddenly changed out of nowhere.
"Why should I give you an answer?" said Neige. "My Lord\'s identity is something for you to know."
The aloof standing of the Ice Spirit King had always been like this. He doesn\'t care about the other gods even though he is only a demigod. Despite the fact that this Ice Spirit King is still stronger than most gods, many of them try to catch his attention most of the time.
Baron Chen kept his smile even though Neige hadn\'t been kind to him all this time. He peeks at the hidden figure Neige is protecting behind him but could not really feel anything special about this human except for him wearing a disguise.
"I will stand down for today. But Ice Spirit King, whether you like it or not, you will have to inform us who that human is in the future." said the soul within the baron, as the dominant one in the vessel once again is replaced the emerald irises of the baron fades as well before the latter fainted.
"Nosy as always. God of Wind..." murmured Neige then he stared at the other Gods\' avatars before him.
They collectively stiffen and suddenly bow their heads before suddenly leaving the place. No longer have any intention of getting involved with the Ice Spirit King and his companion.
Neige spoke, "Finally they are gone. What should we do, for now, my Lord?" he asked.
"Put on your disguise. We are going to the adventurer\'s guild as planned," said Eirwen.
Once Neige put on his disguise once again, this time the two directly teleported inside the empire. With the help of System Yue, they were able to teleport in a place where there are fewer annoying people. After coming out of the alley, they were welcomed by a boisterous marketplace full of people. There are humans, elves, dwarfs, and more races, in this place the carious races are able to get along well without too much discrimination.
Eirwen\'s cold eyes suddenly sparkled when he saw countless stalls and stores which sell food. For a foodie like him, this place is like heaven. When he saw familiar foods like Korean fish cakes or Japanese udon from Earth, he now believes that the ancestor of this empire is something from the modern world.
"This place is not bad but... why do I feel that it is a land made for me?" murmured Eirwen.
Neige only then remembers Araysh words. He said that Lord Adrienne and Lord Lucien had created this Empire with Eirwen Night in mind. All he likes was put together in this small land as if planning to give this empire to the person they like the most. No one would be able to understand how such an empire suddenly appeared within just two years. Even the other Gods didn\'t understand their Sovereigns intention but still had their avatars help with construction.
This is the reason why there are lots of Gods\' Avatars in this Cloud Empire. Because this is a land created by the Twin Ruler Gods for their beloved. While Eirwen is enjoying the food stalls at the market Neige was asking people which direction is the Guild hall. After asking around a few times they\'ve finally reached the Adventurer\'s guild. The Guild is quite larger than an ordinary mansion, there\'s an emblem of shield and sword hanging outside. This is an emblem of Adventurer\'s guild.
Once they entered the guild, various races gathered inside the hall. Most of them were wearing armor, carrying different kinds of weapons on them. The mages and priests wore their own customized robes of different types.
Eirwen spoke, "Brother Eis please go register us. I want to look around for a bit."
Neige nods his head and goes to the registration booth to have the two of them apply for the Adventurer card. But it seems that Eirwen had a different plan in his mind.
"Yue, is the green tea bitch around?" asked Eirwen.
[If the host is talking about Bela Laurel then she is here. She had just finished her disguise and was planning to secretly register as an adventurer. She wanted to use this occupation to accumulate belief from those she would cure in the process.
Actually, she was just following her previous memories, according to the world timeline, today the man called hero Luciel would be brought here injured fatally. Based on the script, Hero Luciel was healed by Angela Evans but the entourage of the little girl and the crown prince was halted by bandits on their way here. They are still halfway towards the Empire.
It was Bela Laurel who did all those things. She wanted to be the one to heal the hero and receive his favor for healing him.]
"Hero Luciel? Is he the one in the plot? The one who defeated the Demon Lord?" asked Eirwen.
[Yes. That is him but...]
"But... after the original Eirwen died in the previous timeline, this hero was defeated by the demon lord as he lost his support known as Saint. Is that it? No wonder that green tea bitch wanted to have this scene. She wanted to have that favor that would allow her to get closer to the hero of this world. As greedy as always, could she even use high heal or regeneration at this point? Even Angie had only reached level 20 lately. High heal could only be used with the help of light spirits or by reaching level 30. So what is her current level?" asked Eirwen.
[Bela Laurel is only level 25. She lacks 5 more levels]
Eirwen smiled amusedly as if anticipating a show.
"I wonder how she would act this time? Either way, it would be better to destroy her plans and make her lose the image she made. How should I play around this time?~" murmured Eirwen while smiling.
It was at this moment that a commotion was suddenly heard coming from the entrance of the Guild. Men wearing full plated armors entered the hall carrying a bloodied figure. This man looks fatally injured, according to the information this man is one Bela Laurel is targeting.
