Scarblade Goddess 54 Chapter 53

"Yumi said that I should meet her somewhere here at night.".

The area was calm as the other divinities, chosen heroes, and heroines from different worlds were at their lodgings. Soon, Miro saw the s.p.a.ced-out G.o.ddess Yumine who was sitting along the sands. Through Miro's senses, he felt that Yumine's anger and sadness had ceased as her sparkling eyes were staring at the horizon. He asked permission if he could sit beside her. Yumine didn't speak as she just made a subtle nod. Thereupon, he sat beside her. Miro wanted to open up a conversation but, he chose not to. Only the sound of silent waves were heard as neither of them bat an eye. Though, soon enough, Yumime asked him, while she was still looking through the horizon,

"Tell me Miro, what do you think of Liliath?".

Miro scratched his own chin and expressed sincerely,

"Liliath huh...to be honest, I thought she'd be the one who would help me but instead, she was the one who made it worse...".

Yumine made a weak smile, as she heard Miro's sad story, although she didn't let his reasons sway her suspicions about him recently. In turn, she specifically asked him,

"The thing that happened yesterday right?".

Miro replied,

"Nope, the time when I was at that desert world...".

Yumine was truly surprised, as she heard that Miro had already met Liliath before, so she took a glance at him. There after, Miro explained to her straight in the eye, while he was leaving out strong gestures,

"Haven't I told you before that there was a G.o.ddess who let me eat that strange apple that made me go berserk while I was in my minotaur form? Liliath was that G.o.ddess.".

Yumine nodded with a sad expression,

"Oh, I see...".

Later, she sighed and returned to look at the beautiful horizon that was seeped in lunar moonlight. Sooner or later, she closed her eyes as she focused in her deep thoughts,

"I could sense that Miro's telling the truth but, why do I feel that he's scared of something? Does it have something to do with Liliath or something else?".

Though, she didn't let her pity sway her. She cleared her throat, she crossed her arms and made a serious expression, while her eyes were shut. Then, she asked him straight,

"And what about yesterday? Why can't you even talk or deny her statements about you even though you said that you DON'T like her...".

Miro sighed. Though, soon enough he steeled his nerves and held Yumine's shoulder as he wanted her to look at him straight and listen to him. In turn, Yumine was flabbergasted and she was made to stare at him stragiht in the eye. After that, he explained to her aided with his honest eyes,

"I know you wouldn't believe me but, I'll just tell you this...she controlled me through the use of that bizarre magic dust...and I hate it.".

Yumine commented,

"Oh, how cruel...".

Through Yumine's G.o.ddess eyes that has the brilliant powers to see the truth, she felt that Miro wasn't lying of what he had said recently. Thereupon, Yumine was engrossed in her thoughts once again,

"I guess Miro's explanation was kinda true, since Lilieth told us that her twin-sister had mind, body, speech-control magic.".

Her suspicions were gone and she made a tricky smile aided with a head tilt,

"So after I ran away, did you and Liliath make love to each other?".

Although, she was shocked in her thoughts as she asked a very personal question out of the blue,

"Wait...why did I just ask a sensitive question?! What's wrong with me?".

The next moment, Yumine just looked away in a jiffy, as she doesn't want Miro to notice that she was embara.s.sed and fl.u.s.tered like a bright red tomato. Thankfully Miro didn't witness her embara.s.sing face, as Miro just replied to her statement regarding his relations.h.i.+p with Liliath,

"No, she just left me since she saw my pathetic self...".

Yumine responded back but, she was stuttering,

"I-is that s-so...so there's no-nothing between y-you and L-Liliath?".

Miro added with an enraged look,

"No, nothing at all, heck I hate her! Toying with my emotions and desires like a plaything. She's a real s.a.d.i.s.t THROUGH AND THROUGH!".

Then, he punched the sands with a powerful blow to release his anger for the wretched G.o.ddess. Yumine was witnessing that Miro was filled with a mix of grievious frustration and b.l.o.o.d.y pain, so she ought to ask him complacently,

"Hmmm, I guess you're scared of her huh?".

As Miro heard Yumine's a.s.sumption, he poured out saddened tears, as his past fragments and present life jived into inexplicable horror,

"Yeah, since she reminded me of that...That first G.o.ddess I've met in my previous world who manipulated me...".

Afterwards, he embraced G.o.ddess Yumine tight, as he wanted to cling onto someone who would understand his painful scar and fresh wounds from the dread. While in the state of Yumine, she was convinced and utterly shocked, especially in her thoughts,

"I guess Miro's telling the truth them...and this is the first time I've seen Miro crying like this...".

A little while later, she suggested to the pitiful Miro,

"Miro, you can lay down on my lap and cry it all out if you want to...".

Miro accepted her suggestion. He laid down on G.o.ddess Yumine's heavenly laps that would let anyone feel that their heads were in the serene cloud nine. Soon, Miro let out lots of tears to release his th.o.r.n.y pain in his core. His expressive cries took longer than expected and Yumine was caressing Miro's head to comfort him more. A while later, Miro had calmed down, although Yumine was still letting him feel her divine touch on his head.

"Yumi?",

Miro said.

"Hm?",

Yumine responded. Then, Miro looked at her straight and questioned her,

"Do you believe in all of what I've said a while ago?".

As she heard Miro's direct question, she looked up and touched her luscious lips with her index finger as she was guessing,

"Hmmmm, well there's some truth of what you've said, since Liliath has body and mind controlling powers...".

Miro felt relieved but, he grew weary and cautious, since Liliath can use manipulative powers at bay. There after, the tides had weakened down as the chilling air around them was gone. Soon, Yumine asked a different subject with a friendly smile on her face,

"Changing the subject, what do you think of Lilieth? Liliath's better twin sister?".

Miro touched his own chin once again,

"Vice Blade G.o.ddess Lilieth huh...I must say, she's a very kind G.o.ddess and a generous friend too.".

As Yumine heard his explanation and a cool smile on his face, Yumine teased him with a sinister grin,

"FRIEND, huh?".

Miro nodded and told more,

"Yes, she's even kinder to little Na.s.sus...".

Then, he remembered something,

"Oh yeah and she gave me this kind of card...".

He brought out the extension card made of hard metal from his pocket and he said more,

"And because of this, me and little Na.s.sus were able to buy food and stuff.".

Yumine was convinced,

"Oh I guess Mara and Lilieth thought of it in advance already...".

Although, Yumine felt worried for a second,

"But wait...if you were able to buy the drinks here too...then that'd mean...".

Miro replied with a smile,

"Yeah, I bought them using this extension card.".

Yumine made a forced smile, as she was feeling more and more worried,

"and you even bought refreshments for the other Blade G.o.ddesses too right? Since they kinda took advantage of you.".

Miro nodded with a dubious smile. Thereupon, Yumine gulped as she felt tense and nervous for Miro's sake.

At Ru's bar in Celestia heavens, Ru was playing with her own cute moving plush doll at a corner. The place wasn't bustling, as Lilieth was the only customer for some reason. In the case of Lilieth, she was eating the scrumptious and creamy carbonara added with herbs and spices. She brought out her smartphone and her eyes focused on the screen,

"Let me see how many G.o.ddess points I still have...".

As she was swiping her phone's screen, she was suddenly shocked as she couldn't believe of what she had seen,

"What the?!".

The next moment, she shouted through the top of her lungs,

"HOW CAN MY POINTS BE SO LOW NOW?! I just bought some food and Miro gave me the list of daily expenses with little Na.s.sus yesterday! And they're all normal!".

Although, she remembered that Miro and little Na.s.sus were nowhere to be found as well as the other Blade G.o.ddesses, so Lilieth felt a cold shoulder as she was kinda convinced,

"D-don't tell me?!".

Afterwards, her hand that was holding her phone, swiped down fast. Thereupon, Lilieth just made a depressing facepalm as her intuitions were true,

"I knew it...Boracrea beach resort's Golden Tides shop at the world of Philivenia.".

Returning back at the basked in the night beach resort, Miro was no longer lying on Yumine's divine soft lap. Instead, he was now sitting next to her. Soon, Yumine just sighed with a sarcastic smile,

"You are so dead Miro...".

Miro felt nervous as she let out a dire statement,

"Eh why's that?".

Yumine flicked his s.h.i.+ny forehead.

"Ouch!",

Miro expressed. There after, Yumine explained to him complacently,

"Cuz, the prices here in this beach resort is freakin' gold, one of the expensive places to splurge your points...and how many drinks have you bought?".

Miro counted using his hands,

"20, I guess?".

Miro felt awkward chills, as he computed the skyrocketting prices of the drinks he purchased. The next moment, he felt down in the gutters with a problematic expression as he just used Lilieth's extension card to purchase those expensive things,

"G.o.ddess Lilieth's gonna kill me alright.".

Yumine patted Miro's shoulder to console his stressed self,

"Yea...so be prepared...be VERY prepared once we go back.".

Miro replied,

"I-I'll take note of that...".

Soon, their tensed feelings were all gone as both of them turned to look at the the glistening horizon. Suddenly, a pink sparkling dove had soared through the skies like a jet plane that released a streak of glittering particles. Yumine felt excited and she shrugged at Miro,

"Ooooh! Ooooh! Miro, look at that!".

She pointed at the flying bird leaving out fuchsia stardust along the clouds. Miro was awestruck as well,

"Oh! It's a pink flying bird, cool!".

Yumine relaxed her nerves. Then, she made an endearing smile and said like a true evangelistic G.o.ddess,

"With that...males have to hold their hands and tell who's the kindest person in their lives for more kindness to come. Since, that's one of the G.o.d's and G.o.ddess's custom here at Philivenia world. Also, if it's blue birds, girls will have to do it instead...".

Miro made a nice grin and scratched the back of his head,

"Oh okay...".

He took a deep breathe and held his hands together. Then, his face looked up to the skies and told his soft words for Yumine to hear,

"F-for me, the kindest person or G.o.ddess should I say...well she's right next to me and her name's Yumine.".

Yumine felt b.u.t.terflies in her stomach, as she heard Miro's indirect confession and flattery. In turn, she put her hands on top of her lips as she was an elegant lady who was utterly embara.s.sed,

"M-Miro?".

Although, Miro wasn't able to notice the embara.s.sed Yumine, as he just continued to tell his honest words,

"Before, I truly hated and irked all of these G.o.ddesses thanks to that certain G.o.ddess turning me into a minotaur. But now, thanks to G.o.ddess Yumine's compa.s.sion, empathy, understanding, respect, smiles, and a second chance she had given me...she made me to think otherwise.

Yumine was growing more and more fl.u.s.tered as she was hearing Miro's expressive statements. Sadly, Miro just continued to tell more, disregarding Yumine's flushed feeling,

"Not all G.o.ddesses are vile and some of them have immense goodness in their heart. Lastly, she's the kindest person I had ever met. She's not just any G.o.ddess but, she's the G.o.ddess I've longed for...a true G.o.ddess.".

Miro exhaled as he was done expressing himself to the stars and skies. Not only that, he had stopped clasping his hands and looked at Yumine. Though, his eyes witnessed that Yumine had a grateful smile but, her crystal tears were about to pour out, while she was holding her hands,

"Yumi? Is there something wrong?",

he asked. Yumine didn't reply with words. Instead, she just hugged his body firmly. Miro's eyes were flabbergasted, as Yumine embraced him suddenly. Miro tried to utter out a word. Since, he could feel the G.o.ddess's immense warmth and bountiful melons touching his chest but, he chose not to.

"I'm also grateful for you, Miro...and thank you.",

Yumine said with a thankful expression. Soon, she let out tears of immense joy, while she was feeling the intense warmth of Miro. Both of their hearts were racing fast, as they felt each others melting cores. Soon, their eyes looked at each other that appeared to be brilliant gemstones in the night. The two of them closed their eyes and let their lips feel each others trance of pa.s.sionate petals along the serene breeze. As their dancing and twisting tongues were sychronizing in the waltzing sauna. Through the skies there was a flock of pink dazzling birds racing along the horizon. In which those birds appeared to be hyperspeed aircrafts that was letting out petals of cherry blossoms, adding brilliance to their sweet moment.

Meanwhile, in another world, a man named Arthuroz was levitating above the open sea. Moreover, the world was basked in the blue night as well. Although, the place looked horrifying as Arthuroz's menacing appearance had seeped through the air. Since, he had the soaring wings of a huge dragon from the netherworld and b.l.o.o.d.y fangs of a vampire lord. He had looks that can kill both in pa.s.sion and desecration, since he was similar to the first fallen angel in ash blonde. Lastly, he has a perfect body that was carved by the G.o.ds of ideals and perfection. In total, he looked-like a beautiful monster who had the miasma of death around him.

"Hmmmm, this is such a nice place to relax on...",

he said with his moderate pitched tone of a romantic guy. Afterwards, he made a smile of a devil,

"I wonder what shall I do here?".

The next moment, the winds turned strong and a small solar flare had burst out in front of him, turning him to shut his eyes and see a glimpse of darkness.
