Chapter 266 - Cap 265: Fairy Goddess's Request

The last thing I remember is going to bed early to rest after a long day, but now everything around me is dark and I'm alone not knowing what to do or where to go, I don't understand what's going on. 

"Why is he still sleeping?"  (Goddess Selene) 

"Can't you see that your soul is hurt?"  (Goddess Aine) 

"..." (I) 

"These are not injuries, at most they could be considered some bruises."  (Goddess Selene) 

"This was probably caused by the God your Fairies are hunting now, it must have been caused when he took the Dungeon core."  (Goddess Selene) 

"What are we going to do now? I don't want to be healing him all the time, I'm not his private doctor."  (Goddess Aine) 

"Don't worry, something of this level of damage will heal on its own, it will even make your soul a little tougher."  (Goddess Selene) 

"..." (I) 

"So how do you want to wake him up? If you want I can shock him, it'll be fun."  (Goddess Aine) 

"If it's you doing this, you'll end up destroying his soul, let me show you the way a mother wakes her child."  (Goddess Selene) 

While I was in that dark place I started to hear voices as if they were very far away, I heard it as if it was a mere whisper, but suddenly I feel a pain in my stomach and I feel as if I have been thrown into the air. 

I didn't quite understand what was going on, but soon my likes seem to hit something flat and hard causing some pain, then my eyes opened showing that I'm in the same Throne room where I talked to the Goddess Selene last time, but this time Once my point of view was from above and I realized I was on the ceiling when I saw two Goddesses looking at me with smiles on their faces. 

With no time to process everything that was happening I start to fall and before I hit the ground, I spin in the air and drop to one knee on the ground, then I hear applause from the two Goddesses. 

"You woke up faster than I expected, it seems your condition is much better than I thought it was."  (Goddess Selene) 

"Great way to fall, it was an excellent show."  (Goddess Aine) 

"What's going on here? Why was I falling as soon as I woke up? Why are you two here?"  (I) 

"Nothing's happening, we were just waiting for you to wake up."  (Goddess Aine) 

"Welcome back Zenos, congratulations on evolving again my child."  (Goddess) 

"Evolving?"  (I) 

"(That's right, I had reached my max level, I was going to evolve overnight, how could I forget that.)" (I) 

I stand as I look at these two Goddesses, I already expected to find Goddess Selene during my evolution, but I don't understand why the Fairy Goddess is here either. 

The Goddess Selene snaps her fingers and suddenly we're all on a porch sitting at a table with three cups of tea in front of us. 

"This place is more comfortable for us to talk."  (Goddess Selene) 

"I don't want tea."  (Goddess Aine) 

The Goddess Aine snaps her fingers making the teacup in front of her disappear and a glass of blue juice appear in its place. 

"You love sweet things as always."  (Goddess Selene) 

"We shouldn't be wasting too much time here, he won't stay forever in your Selene God Realm."  (Goddess Aine) 

"That's true, so before you start asking your questions my child, listen to Aine's request."  (Goddess Selene) 

I was still a little lost with this change of scenery, when I looked up I saw a strange golden sun with a black cut in the middle, maybe it's because of the change of scenery and my momentary confusion, but I thought I saw that sun blink for a second. 

"(This must be because of the confusion, there's no way a sun can blink.)" (I) 

"Zenos, you shouldn't divert your attention when you have two beautiful Goddesses in front of you."  (Goddess Aine) 

"I'm sorry, I think I may have hit my head, I'm still a little confused."  (I) 

When the Fairy Goddess spoke to me was when I was able to turn my mind back to the main focus which is these two Goddesses. 

"But do you really have another request? Isn't that dangerous mountain range request you made me accept?"  (I) 

"Don't be like that, you also have things you want to do in the mountain range, plus you would sooner or later be targeted by Farus because of your God."  (Goddess Aine) 

"Also don't forget that I promised you a reward, I already have this reward ready, as soon as you finish I'll deliver it to you."  (Goddess Aine) 

"You say so, but so far I don't know anything about this reward."  (I) 

"And you won't even know until the end."  (Goddess Aine) 

Sigh 

"As I said before, we don't have much time, so I'll be direct, this request is not mine, but the God of Spirits, he wants you to help your Spirit build a Cradle of Spirits."  (Goddess Aine) 

"No."  (I) 

"I won't do that, the Cradle of Faeries has gotten me into trouble and attention before, now that I'm just getting used to it do you want to throw more trouble at me?"  (I) 

"Actually you'd better accept, the Infant Spirits and other Spirits will continue to follow you, if you at least have a Cradle of Spirits they will have a place to stay and you will be able to ask your Spirit for help, with her help you'll be able to hide your Aura so you don't draw too much attention from the Spirits."  (Goddess Aine) 

"What are you talking about?"  (I) 

"I'm not surprised you don't know, this isn't the kind of thing that should be common knowledge."  (Goddess Aine) 

"To make it simple for you to understand, your Fairy can redirect the characteristic of your Aura that attracts Fairies to the Cradle of Fairies, this would be a help for you and it would also strengthen the Cradle with your Aura."  (Goddess Aine) 

"You could do the same with Spirits if you build a Cradle of Spirits."  (Goddess Aine) 

"..." (I) 

"(If she knew that, then why didn't she tell me before? That would have saved me a lot of trouble.)" (I) 

"I didn't tell you before why I forgot, besides I wouldn't gain anything from it, what I wanted was for you to attract more and more Infant Fairies to the Fairy Cradle to help create more Fairies."  (Goddess Aine) 

"Could you please stop reading my mind? Please?"  (I) 

I was shocked by this information, to be honest, I was worried about what would happen to me if I went around attracting Fairies and Spirits, I wouldn't be able to go anywhere and it would draw too much attention to myself. 

I don't like doing this, but it seems that it will also benefit me, the truth is that the Fairies and Spirits of the village are always around, it would probably be even worse if it weren't for the miasma that Farus spread across the mountain range had made the Spirits and Fairies go away. 

"The God of Spirits will prepare a gift for you for this, so don't worry and just accept it."  (Goddess Aine) 

"..." (I) 

"Stop being indecisive and accept Zenos soon, we don't have much time, if you keep wasting time you won't be able to ask any of your questions."  (Goddess Selene) 

"Fine, I'll talk to Nix about it later, but it'll have to wait until I defeat Farus."  (I) 

"It's fine by me."  (Goddess Aine) 

Now that this is all over, there are some important questions I have to ask. 

"Now that this is all over, let me ask you a few questions."  (I) 

"You can do it, I'll answer depending on the question."  (Goddess Selene) 

"I was wondering why I can't synthesize my Elemental Affinities, do you know anything?"  (I) 

"You'll never get that, Elemental Affinities can only fuse with Affinities of the same Element until they solidify a pure element."  (Goddess Selene) 

"If you try to force a fusion between Affinities of different elements then it will only bring about your own destruction."  (Goddess Selene) 

"But then why was I able to fuse spells from different elements?"  (I) 

"Magic is how you control and use your power (mana), but your Affinity is the very essence of that power, take your Fairy, for example, she has multiple elements, but they are all separate within her."  (Goddess Aine) 

"You can harmonize these elements for more power by using them together, but you won't be able to fuse them."  (Goddess Aine) 

"I think I understand."  (I) 

"Any more questions my child?"  (Goddess Selene) 

"Wanted to know if it's safe to merge my Aura abilities?"  (I) 

"You can do this as long as it's not a unique skill from this evolution, now your body and soul must bear it, but I must say it will be immense pain that you will have to endure."  (Goddess Selene) 

"But it will only be a pain, it won't do you any real harm."  (Goddess Selene) 

"Aura skills are characteristics of one's own normal Aura, merging these characteristics will make your own normal Aura stronger and deeper, it will also make it harder for others to read your Aura."  (Goddess Selene) 

"Why can't I fuse a unique Aura skill?"  (I) 

"Because your body and soul couldn't withstand the impact, you would need to be a Demigod at least to withstand it, the only reason you feel able to synthesize Aura's abilities is because you're my son."  (Goddess Selene) 

"..." (I) 

"Okay, I understand, I have a few more questions..." (I) 

While listening to the explanation of the two Goddesses I look up to try to get my mind in order as I try to say something, but I see something so strange that I am paralyzed without understanding what it was. 

"(I think I saw it move...)" (I) 

"Your time is up, until next time my child."  (Goddess Selene) 

"Take good care of the people of that village, after all, they won't have a place to stay for long."  (Goddess Aine) 

"Wait, wait, what did you just say..." (I) 

Soon I see my hand start to disappear faster and faster, I look away from above for a second to look at the Fairy Goddess hearing something very strange, but the next moment I look up I see it clearly this way time the sun moves aiming that line in the middle of the sun towards me as if it were an eye. 

"This time I saw it move, this time I..." (I) 

Before he finished speaking, everything went dark again.
