Chapter 139: Witnessing the Moons and Opening the Gate to the Holy Hall of the Three Heroes

As excitement and panic gripped some places with the arrival of the transcendent night, Charlotte, Iris, and Fiona remained undisturbed, carrying out their nightly activities in the room.On the bed, Iris, dressed in a pink lolita nightgown, lay on her back, reading a book, her expression indifferent.

At the reading table near the bookcase, Charlotte, dressed in a white lolita nightgown with her long hair in a bun on the right as usual, played with a puzzle toy made by Leon. She occasionally wrote notes in the book beside her, as if studying the pattern.

Lastly, on the carpet near the bed, Fiona, in a green lolita nightgown, played with her teddy bear. Her round face looked pouty, and her eyes occasionally appeared dazed.

"Hah~," Fiona sighed softly as she placed her teddy bear beside her and lay down on the carpet, staring at the bedroom ceiling with an annoyed expression she couldn't hide.

Earlier that afternoon, she had sneaked into her daddy's room but failed, a fact she couldn't accept.

Moreover, her pink key, which had been repaired after breaking the night before, was broken again, further escalating her frustration to the highest level!

"Hah~," Fiona sighed softly once more, then shifted to lie on her back.

Her round, bun-like cheeks pressed against the carpet, making them resemble flattened bread dough.

Her gaze fell on Charlotte, who was busily occupied with a puzzle game.

"Sister~," Fiona called out in a sad tone, startling Charlotte immediately.

Swiftly, Charlotte stopped her puzzle game and turned around, looking at Fiona with a curious gaze.

"Hm? What's wrong, Fiona?" Charlotte inquired, blinking her round eyes.

Fiona pursed her lips, eager to tell her sister about her favorite pink key that was broken and hoping her sister could fix it.

However, she hesitated because the key had broken when she secretly sneaked into their daddy's room earlier, despite their mother forbidding them to go there.

This made her lips open and close without a single word coming out.

Noticing the hesitation on Fiona's face and sensing her sister's strange behavior since noon, Charlotte's curiosity grew.

Without hesitation, she leaped from her reading chair and strode purposefully toward her.

"Is something bothering you?" Charlotte asked gently as she slowly sat down in front of Fiona.

At Charlotte's question, tears suddenly welled up in Fiona's eyes.

"Wuu~ Sister~," Fiona cried, sitting up and throwing herself into Charlotte's arms.

Faced with Fiona's sudden cry, Charlotte was naturally surprised and gazed curiously at her little sister in her arms.

Yet, she refrained from immediately asking any questions; instead, she patiently soothed Fiona while gently stroking her head.

"Alright, alright, don't cry, okay?" Charlotte murmured, continuing to stroke and pat Fiona's head to calm her down.

Meanwhile, on the bed, Iris, who had been reading, also looked up in confusion at Fiona's outburst.

'Hm? What's wrong with Fiona? Why is she crying all of a sudden?' Iris muttered to herself, feeling a bit concerned.

However, seeing that Charlotte had already managed to calm her down, Iris's worry gradually faded, and she decided to observe the situation from the bed instead.

After a few minutes, Fiona finally stopped crying, which brought a sense of relief to Charlotte.

Gently stroking her head, Charlotte asked, "Now, could you tell me why you suddenly started crying?"

Listening to her question, Fiona gradually extricated herself from Charlotte's arms and began to recount everything.

After hearing her story, Charlotte couldn't help but let out a small chuckle.

Truth be told, Charlotte had anticipated that Fiona might attempt to sneak into their father's room, given her little sister's stubborn nature.

However, Fiona's failure to sneak into their father's room, a task she typically succeeded at, and the subsequent breaking of her pink key once again had indeed caught Charlotte by surprise.

'It seems Mommy has erected a magic barrier, just like that night,' Charlotte muttered to herself, hazarding a guess.

Snapping out of her reverie, she turned her attention back to Fiona and offered a gentle smile.

"So that's how it is," Charlotte said with a slight nod and a smile on her lips before reassuring, "Don't worry, Fiona. I'll fix your broken key. So, please don't cry anymore, okay?"

Fiona's eyes brightened at Charlotte's words. Wiping away the remaining tears from her eyes, she asked, seeking confirmation, "Really?"

"Of course!" Charlotte replied firmly, patting her chest gently to emphasize her sincerity.

A beautiful smile spread across Fiona's lips upon hearing Charlotte's affirmative answer.

"Hehehe~ Thank you, sister~" Fiona exclaimed joyfully, wiggling her body from side to side in happiness.

Observing her happy smile, Charlotte couldn't help but feel joyous herself.

Suddenly, Charlotte's expression shifted slightly, as if she had just recalled something she had forgotten.

Maintaining a smile on her lips, Charlotte added, "By the way, while I was out earlier, I happened to witness a fascinating phenomenon in the sky."

Fiona was taken aback by Charlotte's sudden words, her curiosity evident in her gaze as she looked at her.

"Interesting phenomenon?" Fiona tilted her head.

Charlotte nodded, poised to respond, when suddenly Iris, who was on the bed, interjected.

"Oh! An interesting phenomenon in the sky? Isn't it the alignment of the two moons, Sylvia and Miranda, which are typically distant from each other? I happened to see it earlier too," Iris exclaimed enthusiastically, rising to sit on the bed.

Charlotte smiled and affirmed, "Yes, indeed. It was the rare alignment of the two moons in the sky."

Turning to Fiona, who wore a puzzled expression, Charlotte asked softly, "Would you like to see it?"

Fiona's eyes lit up, and she nodded eagerly, resembling an excited chick.

"I want to see it!" Fiona replied, her two small hands tightly clenched in excitement.

"Alright, then let's go to the balcony and take a look," Charlotte said, rising to her feet. She then turned to Iris and asked, "Would you like to come with us to the balcony?"

"Of course, I want to come!" Iris replied without hesitation, quickly getting off the bed.

Soon, the three little girls walked together towards the balcony, and as they arrived, their expressions shifted to awe.

"It's so beautiful..." Iris murmured in a low tone, lifting her head to gaze at the two moons, Sylvia and Miranda, aligned in the sky.

"Yes, absolutely stunning..." Charlotte nodded in agreement, her small face filled with wonder.

Although she had witnessed it previously, experiencing it again renewed her sense of awe.

Turning her gaze towards Fiona, Charlotte smiled as she observed Fiona's equally amazed expression. Sёarch* The Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Is it beautiful?" Charlotte inquired, her lips gently upturned in a faint smile.

Fiona responded to Charlotte's question with a slight nod, the reflection of the two moons mirrored in her round, golden eyes.

"Very beautiful," Fiona replied, her voice tinged with awe.

Charlotte simply smiled and said nothing more, turning her gaze towards the sky once again to admire the two moons.

Unbeknownst to Charlotte, as soon as she averted her eyes from Fiona, a gold star-shaped mark suddenly manifested on Fiona's forehead.

The star-shaped mark emitted a faint yet intense golden light for a few moments before vanishing completely...

...

Meanwhile, in a vast, elongated hallway flanked by towering pillars, Velix, Guren, Rain, and Jim walked in a line through its depths.

Their expressions remained impassive and serene; not a word passed between them.

However, among them, one figure stood out for his curiosity, glancing from side to side—it was none other than Guren.

He meticulously scanned each side of the hallway, as if determined not to miss a single detail.

The four continued their way until they finally halted before a massive, towering door adorned in gold.

Velix lifted his gaze with indifference and stated, "Finally, we have arrived at the entrance to the Holy Hall of the Three Heroes..."

Upon hearing this, Jim, Rain, and Guren simultaneously raised their heads and saw a door—no, it wasn't a mere door, but a gate!

The gate was so immense and towering that it made the four of them seem like ants in comparison.

"It's massive!" Guren exclaimed involuntarily, his amazement evident at the sight of the enormous gold-colored gate before him.

Guren is quite certain that this gate is larger than the one leading to the throne room!

Beside him, Jim and Rain, though not expressing their surprise as vocally as Guren, could not conceal the astonishment written on their faces.

Velix smiled slightly as he noticed the shock on their faces, then retrieved a small, gold-colored box from his robe pocket.

The box, about the size of a fist, boasted a unique pattern of lines adorning each side.

With the gold-colored box nestled in his palm, Velix advanced toward the gate ahead, lifting it high above.

*Whoosh!*

Suddenly, the golden box shook slightly, emitting a bright golden glow before levitating and flying straight into the large gate in front of Velix, disappearing from view.

Witnessing this extraordinary event, Guren, Jim, and Rain were naturally struck with shock and confusion.

"What was that—" Guren began to voice his doubts, but before he could finish, he felt the ground beneath him and the hallway around him shaking violently, immediately putting him on high alert.

*Buzz!*

The shaking intensified until, suddenly, the gate ahead of him quivered slightly and began to slowly open, catching Guren off guard.

'The gate is opening?' Guren murmured, his eyes narrowing in surprise.

He initially suspected it to be an enemy attack or something similar, only to realize it stemmed from the movement of the gate before him.

Inevitably, his gaze drifted to Velix, reminiscing about the golden box from earlier.

'Could that box be the key to opening the gate...' Guren whispered to himself, growing confident in his speculation.

*Buzz!*

The shaking gradually subsided as the massive gate in front of them fully opened.

Upon seeing the gate swing open, Velix offered a nonchalant smile as he strode confidently inside, beckoning with a simple directive, "Follow me."

Guren, Jim, and Rain nodded simultaneously, falling into step behind Velix as he led them into the hall.
