The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

Somewhere in the Underworld,

“Why did you like helping the daughter of the Sun Goddess so much? Did her parents pay you?”

This question made a woman with long black hair stop walking. As soon as possible, she looked back and saw a familiar man there. The atmosphere became tense because the girl had not yet answered the question. “Since when were you there?”

That cold-faced man grinned at the interlocutor, but this only lasted for a few seconds. “Why are you changing the conversation? Was my question wrong, or were you two arguing because you and that strange girl are usually together?”

A white-eyed woman did not want to answer the questions asked by the opposite sex. When she was about to turn around, suddenly… “Why are you ignoring me? Could it be that I guessed right that you two were fighting?”

The Night Goddess snorted while the other person was still waiting for an answer from her sister. However, a woman who hated light remained silent, making the questioner anxious. “Silence will not solve the problem, Nyx.”

“Why do you even want to know now? What is your interest?” Nyx did not answer her older brother’s two questions, and she deliberately asked something else. The girl’s flat expression made a guy with the baritone voice grin again.

“Of course, I want to know because usually I see you two a lot. You even asked her to go to your secret realm. Did you think I did not know that?” Lord Havento answered casually, but his sibling did not see this as a green flag.

An idea crossed the mind of the two-hundred-and-seventy-year-old woman. “It is my business to take him wherever I go. If you are really curious, why not just approach her? You two look good together.”

“What?” The tall man frowned as if he could not believe Nyx’s words that he had just heard.

“Why do you not approach Atvertha and make her your wife? She is a good goddess, and I am sure she is compatible with you.” A woman, who had a height of one hundred and seventy-five centimetres deliberately ignored her eldest brother’s question and chose to promote her best friend.

“Tsk! Do not be stupid! She already had a boyfriend. She is not my type, either.” The first child of the couple, God Hetzh-Lord of Darkness and Goddess Aymenth-the Goddess ord of Sorrow, seemed uninterested in his third sister promotion. However, Nyx turned to Havento as if she was interested in the young man’s words.

“Why not? Atvertha’s lover came from mortals, so it will not be difficult for you to get rid of her. She is not your type? Havento, you will have a wife from the Upper world in the future, so the Moon Goddess is the right candidate for you.” The slender woman did not give up and deliberately postponed her business so she could chat with her cold brother.

“Why are you even promoting that weird virgin to me? Toghnath is after her, so it is better to just make the offer to her.” Havento suspected something was wrong, but the man deliberately did not say what he thought because he wanted to find out more information.

“Atvertha did not like flirtatious men and playboys. She likes a man who… yeah, who has the opposite qualities of that. How about you? Do you want to try approaching her, brother?” Nyx looked unyielding, which made Havento spontaneously laugh out loud.

“Why are you laughing? Is there something funny?” Nyx said, rolling her eyes in annoyance.

“You are so naive. How many times do I have to tell you that she is not my type? I do not like an immortal goddess with a pale and fierce face like her. I…” Havento stopped talking, so he did not finish saying the last sentence. Nyx did not miss that moment. She became curious, wanting to know what made her eldest brother act like that.

“Why? Do you already like another immortal goddess? Who is she?” Nyx asked, wary.

This time, it was Havento’s turn to remain silent. He looked away, and this strangeness made the woman wearing a dress of darkness, blue-black like night and filled with sparkling light, even more suspicious of the opposite sex. “It is okay if you do not want to say it now. Sooner or later, I will find out, and you will not be able to avoid it any longer.”

The atmosphere between the brothers became awkward because the Ruler of the Underworld was silent for a long time. Meanwhile, Nyx continued to observe the movements of the person he was talking to. When the girl was about to give up because her eldest brother’s attitude had not shown any signs of change, suddenly she had to give up her intention because Havento asked her, “Why do you care so much about Atvertha?”

“Excuse me?” Nyx deliberately asked again because the meaning of Havento’s question confused her.

“Why do you want to set me up with Atvertha? Do you have a special mission, sister?” Lord Havento explained, so Nyx understood.

“I see that you and Atvertha are very compatible. You and her just need a little adaptation. Instead of marrying a man of unknown origins, I thought it would be better for her to be your wife.” Nyx answered Havento’s question, but the three-hundred-and-ten-year-old man seemed dissatisfied with the answer given.

“I can’t marry her, especially since she lives in the Upper World. I hate too bright light.”

“Atvertha can live in this palace if you two marry. She can adjust well.” Nyx tries to shake Havento’s stance so that the man will change his decision.

“Nyx, that will not work. There are too many differences. She will still marry that mortal guy, and you know that very well.” The black-haired man shook his head, making his third sister sad, even though he did not show it directly.

“I wish she did not do it.” Nyx started expressing her opinion, and Havento just listened without any interest in continuing the conversation.

The atmosphere returned to silence. The brother and sister seemed busy with their thoughts, so they felt awkward. In the midst of the silence, Havento returned his attention to Nyx. “Why do you help Atvertha so much? Did her mother not teach her?”

Nyx glanced at her eldest brother. “That woman was useless because she did not teach her much. I felt pity for Atvertha. I have taught her more, especially about darkness.”Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

The Underworld Lord frowned. “What? Are you sure?”

“I am sure. That was why I unlocked all of Atvertha’s hidden abilities, even through painful methods. Nothing comes easy when it develops with the darkness.”

Lord Havento seemed to be digesting everything his little sister said. He did not answer because he did not feel the need to do so. “Brother. I hope you consider my words.” Nyx said seriously, so the man seemed interested.

“Why? Now, you are forcing your personal will, even though you know she is not my type. When you married Toretz, I never interfered.” The man who had never married any girl felt offended, but Havento tried to hold back his anger.

“I am worried about the safety of Atvertha and also that bloody mortal.” Nyx could see her older brother’s scary aura uncontrollably emerging as if he were warning her not to cross the line.

“It can’t be just that reason, Nyx! I do not play around when choosing a partner, especially a future wife! If you hide the real reason, I will not spare your life!” Havento meant what he said, because a long silver sword appeared in the man’s left hand.

“Do you want to kill me, brother?” Nyx remained normal as if Havento’s threat to her was just bullshit.

“I can do more than that, sister. You know that very well.” The strong-jawed man seemed to move his left hand, so Nyx felt he had to change strategy.

“Okay. I will tell you the truth. Actually, the real reason for why did I want you and Atvertha to get married is because she could-”
