Will of chaos

Chapter 197 Cap 196: Fairy Goddess(Chapter Preview)

I open my eyes feeling dizzy and confused, I look around and all I see is that I'm facing a lake in the middle of a beautiful forest, I also see a big beautiful tree that is in the middle of the lake, this is a beautiful and calm sight, but I don't understand why I ended up here.

I try to remember what I was doing to get an understanding of my situation, try to go back to the first thing I remember was Caryna telling me we had a guest, then it all came back to me.

I remembered meeting Vanessa, I remembered using my abilities on her, I remembered almost being stopped by the God of Light and also Goddess Selene confronting the God of Light and protecting me as I finished using my abilities on Vanessa.

I remember how the pain spread through my body and how weak I felt, I also remember that listening to the voice of the God of Light made me feel a pain that didn't come from my body if it wasn't for the ability to overcome limits I would not have been able to maintain consciousness for so long.

The last thing I remember is the scarlet crystal cocoon breaking, everything was blurry and I lost consciousness after that.

"(Then why am I here? If I lost consciousness I wasn't supposed to wake up in my room or at least still in the mansion?)" (I)

"(This place also doesn't seem to be inside the forest of blood or somewhere near Valen, maybe this is all a dream and I'm still unconscious?)" (I)

"Congratulations for quickly understanding the situation."  (female voice)

Suddenly I hear a female voice coming from somewhere and I try to get up quickly and get into combat position, but the moment I get to my feet a gigantic pain runs through my body and I fall backward lying down with my body shaking.

"You shouldn't get up so fast, I'm not done healing you yet, come back here."  (female voice)

"..." (I)

Soon my body starts to float to where it was before, then a golden glow surrounds my body and the pain starts to gradually lessen.

As I lay looking up I have the sensation of seeing the sun moving towards me, that's when I realized that it wasn't the sun, as it got closer I could see a female silhouette with golden butterfly wings within the glow that I was confused with the sun.

"How recklessly to go against Baldr's influence, even being protected by Selene's influence is still too much for a mortal soul to resist."  (female voice)

As she spoke she continued to move closer until he was close enough to see her.

"..." (I)

I was speechless to see such a beautiful woman, her beauty can only be compared to that of the Goddess Selene, but while the Goddess Selene has a dignified and dangerous beauty, this woman has an innocent and gentle beauty.

She has beautiful chocolate skin with long hair and golden eyes, for some reason, she has a serious expression as she looks at me like she's sizing me up somehow, I feel like there's nothing about me her eyes can't see.

Being in this situation where I'm at someone else's mercy bothers me a lot, but I don't seem to have a choice here.

"You need not fear me, I am Aine the Fairy Goddess."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"..." (I)

"Your body has suffered several internal wounds in addition to the loss of vitality and energy, but someone is already taking care of your body, the problem is your soul."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"Your soul was attacked by Baldr's influence, even though Selene protected you it's still inconceivable for a mortal soul of your level to resist, even with that resistance skill it still wouldn't be enough."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"..." (I)

It was shocking enough to know that this person is a Goddess, but hearing her speak is starting to make me realize how reckless I was this time.

"Looks like your soul is tougher than an ordinary mortal soul, maybe that's because you're an Outsider."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"(Does she know I'm an Outsider? How?)" (I)

"I'm a Goddess and I have your soul in my hands now, you can't hide anything from me."  (Goddess of Fairies)

This Goddess looks more and more dangerous, it seems I was fooled by her appearance, her personality is the opposite of what she appears to be.

Soon she stops looking at me with serious eyes and smiles gently at me, then raises one of her hands and multicolored energy surrounds me, this energy makes the pain disappear completely leaving me relaxed and comfortable, somehow I feel like I'm being embraced by a dear relative, I feel safe.

"You don't need to fear me, son of Selene, I'm here to help you this time and this time only."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"Normally I wouldn't do that, but because you're Selene's son and because you rescued a Fairy that should have been lost, I'm going to make that exception."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"You were lucky that the gods cannot exercise their powers through their blessings, all we can do is bestow potential and protection."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"(She means those golden swords and that pressure weren't attacked?)" (I)

"The pressure was only the result of a small part of Baldr's will, the golden swords and shield were the result of the protection of the Blessing that Baldr granted one day to that Priestess."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"Do you think you could resist any other way? Even in that situation you were only able to resist because of Selene's protection and your soul being a little tougher than usual."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"In addition to healing your soul, I will grant you my Blessing, the reason for this is because you and the Fairy who is at your side have created a Cradle of Fairies with the potential to become a Temple of Fairies."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"I didn't expect such a young and weak Fairy to be capable of this, so I'll give you both my Blessing for this achievement."  (Goddess of Fairies)

This Goddess spent a few minutes healing me as she told me many amazing things, then she lowered her hand and my body was no longer engulfed by that energy, I got up and looked at her floating in the air, such a beauty that I was mesmerized by some seconds.

"You're okay now, your soul will be more resistant to damage in the future and more powerful too."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"But your Aura will be branded with a rejection of Baldr, Baldr's believers will feel disgusted for you for feeling it instinctively, so be careful in the future."  (Goddess of Fairies)

I see the Fairy Goddess land on the surface of the lake and walk towards the tree in the center, she waves her hand and a sphere of light comes out of her hands and seems to hit something invisible in front of her creating ripples like water in the shape of a circle where she is about to enter.

"Thank you for healing me, Goddess Aine."  (I)

"I advise you to get strong soon, Baldr is busy right now so he won't send his mighty believers after you and this priestess, but he won't forget what happened."  (Goddess of Fairies)

"..." (I)

With my words, the Goddess stops and leaves one last message before entering what must be some kind of portal.

The last words of the Goddess of Fairies showed me that it's not over yet, at least I found out that I still have time to grow stronger, but I don't know how much time I will have.

Sigh

"It feels like the quiet life I so longed for is getting further away."  (I)

I think it can be dangerous to stay in the city of Valen for a long time, but there is also the issue of the mansion.

The Goddess of the Fairies said she gave me her Blessing because Layla and I tried to harmonize the miasma of the mansion, she called it the Cradle of the Fairies and she seemed happy about it so I can't leave the mansion but it's also dangerous to stay there.

Sigh

"What am I going to do?"  (I)

At this moment the information that the Goddess Selene gave me during my evolution and the letter I received from Prince Drago comes to mind, I also remember some information that I read in books before.

I feel like the pieces are somehow fitting together in my head, the image this puzzle is putting together is bizarre, but maybe it can work.

"Even if it works out somehow, I'm going to get a lot of attention, I don't know what consequences it will have for me either."  (I)

I look at this beautiful landscape and realize that everything is starting to fade, it looks like I'm going to wake up soon.

"Too bad I can't enjoy this beautiful landscape any longer."  (I)

"Should I give up my desire for a quiet life at once?"  (I)

"Maybe if I'm strong enough to protect myself and others and also find a safe place where I can hide from prying eyes I can have my life at ease, but a dream place like that will be hard to find."  (I)
