Chapter 97 Gods Can’t Descend Down



The family members, especially Nix's, were surprised by Linc's sudden comment.

A drama would unfold if Linc said anything further, thus, trying to appease the situation, Alex said, "Linc, you shouldn't use that address."

Nix smiled as she watched her husband struggle, but kept quiet nevertheless. If he felt it wasn't time to reveal the truth yet, then she would respect it.

Linc didn't understand what her Master was trying to say but nodded her head in understanding.

The family members didn't have any questions regarding this conversation. Linc was a new guy so he might not know stuff, they thought.

"Hehe, by the way..." Isla grabbed everyone's attention and took a pause as Linc served her tea.

Holding the teacup in hand, she continued, "me and David will be staying in the states for the coming few months."

Josh and Janet smiled in response.

"Cheers!" Josh said happily and clung his teacup with David's.

Isla turned to Nix and with a loving look in her eyes, said, "our baby girl has grown so much. From making Lego houses with her Ma and Pa to finally having her own..."

Isla's eyes turned moist and David, well, he didn't have tears but his eyes were red. He hid it by sipping on the tea.

"Ma..." Nix shook her head with a smile. "What's with the melodrama? I thought you would be proud of me, but look, you're crying instead. I wouldn't have gotten a house if such was the case."

Sounds of laughter filled the room as she said that.

Isla wiped the tear from her eye and said while hugging Nix from the side and kissing her forehead softly, "Ma and Pa are proud of you, baby."

Nix snuggled happily in her mother's embrace like a purring cat.

She may be a Goddess, but she lived a normal human life until it was her turn to act in this big play.

Her parents were the loveliest in the world for her. They took great care of her and she knew that even if she did nothing, they would still be proud of her.

It was due to this love that Nix wanted her husband to tell the truth to them. The truth that they were in a relationship.

The universe had a lot of rules.

Rules so finely made that the gears of the universe ran smoothly without any problems.

One such rule was that higher Gods cannot descend into the lower planes.

They contained so much power within them that the delicate lower planes would be instantly destroyed.

However, they could still communicate with the people from lower realms through what is known as prayers. They could also help people to some extent by proving their blessings.

There were also ways for them to descend down, but all of them were temporary methods.

There wasn't a single chance for them to force their way into the lower planes either. There was no fate or destiny available for such a scenario since the Fate and Destiny Goddesses haven't allowed it.

Everyone, including the Creator, abided by the established rules to not let the gears of the universe clog.

Even though the Creator descended down with her real self, no particular problems arose with the rules. She was the one who made everything, it would be weird if she couldn't jump around the planes freely,

However, Melissa was forbidden to use her powers and would only act passively, unlike the other ladies who were free to do whatever they wanted with their reincarnated bodies.

This was a curse she had to live with as she came down first and that too with her real self.

In any case, just like Alex, Nix was enjoying the human life and everything she did here, it was all natural and not an act.

She really loved and cared for her parents in the same manner they did to her.

She remembered that her mother always longed for her homeland and wanted to stay in this country for long periods of time.

But due to her father's job and Nix's school and other stuff, she couldn't, even if she wanted to.

Now Nix was grown up and her father too had a job that could be done remotely.

They only lacked a home in this country and Nix made it available for them. They could stay as long as they wanted and juggle to and fro between Italy and America.

Though, Nix slightly miscalculated the things as her mother apparently got emotional for the wrong reasons.

She wasn't emotional because she could now be in the states, but she got emotional because she felt her child had grown up.

Alex was happy to see the relationship his wife shared with her mother. The joyous atmosphere continued and as the snack time came to an end, Isla said,

"Janet, Josh, thank you for your hospitality. We'll be leaving right now to Nixie's place and settle down. You guys are invited for the celebrations the day after tomorrow, alright?"

Janet smiled happily. "We'll surely be there, don't forget to make your signature Mac and cheese or else I'm gonna be super unhappy."

"Haha! For sure!" Isla replied.

"You too, David." Josh chimed in. "Don't forget to make your signature Brush-ketta! Hahaha!"

David knitted his brows as he heard his best friend butcher the name once again. Since the children were around, he didn't knock this idiot out and forgave him.

"I'll make it, but you aren't invited." David said with a smile.

"Hahaha! I'll invite myself in then. I am sure Nixie won't have a problem with that."

Nix smiled and replied, "it'll be difficult to let uncle Josh in without Pa's approval. But things can be manageable if uncle promises to make pulled pork sandwiches."

"Bahaha! Definitely! Alongside the pork, we can grill David too!"

Black lines appeared on Nix and Isla's forehead while David shot a disappointed look at Josh.

This guy's humour hasn't changed ever since college and was still as bad as that time.

In any case, no party was offended and everyone shared some giggles until it was finally time for Nix's family to leave.

Everyone went to the garage and looking at the customized Supra, Isla said with amusement, "you got a new car, Alex?"

Alex shook his head.

"Then...?"

Alex pointed at Nix.

"Hmm?"

Nix smiled and took out her car key, showing it to her parents.

"That's my car."

"Mamma Mia! What!?" David couldn't contain his shock and exclaimed.

"Geez, David. Stop shouting in my ears." Isla said and rubbed her ears.

"Sorry. But what!? Nixie, you bought that?" David asked with knitted brows.

Nix chuckled and pressed the car's keys, making the car unlock. "Is there a problem?"

Being an Italian automobile designer working for an Italian company, David couldn't help but be really shocked and disappointed at her daughter's choice.

Shaking his head and pointing out with his hands, David said, "Nixie, if you wanted a sporty sedan, you could've gotten an AMG. Why did you get this one? You're surely not a teenager who just got into cars right?"

She was his daughter, their house had a lot of miniature models of cars designed by David and also some that he liked and took inspiration from.

He talked about it with his wife and knew Nixie took part in it too.

Then how did she end up buying this?

Japanese cars were known for their reliability, but this customized model surely wasn't it.

Just one glance at the turbos attached to it and the big spoilers on its back, David could think of the potential problems that'll come up.

In his opinion, a Supra was just a sedan that was treated as a sports car by people who couldn't afford a Lamborghini or even a Ferrari.

David's reaction was a delight to see in Nix's opinion. She knew what he disliked and bought exactly that.

The house brought him happiness but the car poured cold water on his emotions.

Nix was basically treating him like the Jinx Linc.

This was what Alex thought as he watched the duo.

'Poor guy...' Alex chuckled internally.

"Baah! Stop complaining, Pa. Italian cars aren't everything. Come I'll show you the power of Japanese engineering." Nix dragged her father into the car with her mother's help.

"I don't want to!" David complained.

"Honey, stop complaining. If our baby girl likes this, then you should respect that. Now buckle up properly." Isla said as she put him in place and closed the door.

Under the force of this mother-daughter duo, David stood no chance.

The poor Italian's ears then heard the loud roar of the Japanese engine as Nix started the car and there was only a distancing yell Alex and the rest heard as Nix zoomed off using the nitro boosts.

"He deserved it, hahaha!" Josh was having a great time watching his friend's misery.

The rest shook their heads with a smile and Alex said, "aunt Isla, come, I'll drop you off."

Saying so, he drove Isla to her home in his parents' Ford.
