Nix then tried to destroy this avatar of her in the hope of surviving by turning into a mist but she was startled to see her body slowly dissipate.
"No!"
She immediately understood what was happening and fear once again occupied her mind when black poured out of the door and encircled her body before slowly dragging it back toward the door.
"Nononononononono!"
She wriggled, fought back, screamed, cursed, and even tried to claw at the ground as she was inevitably dragged closer and closer to the gate but to no avail.
All her struggles were simply pointless.
Even as she felt the power she accumulated after so long, Nix felt no anger, only fear,
When she felt her body finally enter it, she could only turn toward the white figure that had stayed silent all this while and with a voice full of begging,
"Please, I beg you I was just curious.''
The white figure answered her with a large smile.
The disturbing picture of a large mouth opening on a faceless white figure was disturbing enough for anyone else to have a nightmare.
"Please I will tell-!"
*Boom*
Her plea was cut short as she completely vanished behind the gate while said gate closed behind her.
Now, the only people present in this place were Sol and the white figure.
Then, the figure that had stayed sitting all this while slowly stood up and advanced toward Alex's location, turning into a beautiful woman none other than Nyx the Goddess of Death.
Nobody can mess up with her thing or else endless regret awaits this person. Holding a small dark gray orb in her white hand Nyx smiled, at least she tried. The surrounding temperature plummeted as if afraid of their master's tentative smile.
Back in the real world, Alex was looking at Goddess Mea and he couldn't help but admit that this woman was a hell of beauty, however, after being surrounded by beautiful women, the like of Maria, even Silveria and Nyx whose beauty was at the same level as Mea he had become immune to it.
andasnovel.com Goddess Mea nodded at how Alex wasn't flustered looking at her but somehow she was annoyed that Alex seemed immune to her beauty, unlike how he reacted the first time the young man did not show any reaction which annoyed her.
However, she couldn't show it because it would be unbefitting her status.
Just as Goddess Mea was about to open her mouth to begin the reason for them to forcibly summon Alex here something unexpected happened.
Nix who was seating on her left suddenly clutched her chest and her face paled alarming the others.
''Nix what happened?'' Goddess Mea was the first to question her sister followed by the others.
''What is going on?"
''What is the problem?"
However, Nix was not in the state to answer neither of them, she hurriedly departed, leaving the others shocked.
'Don't worry nothing serious, continue the meeting without me.' Nix's strained voice rang out inside Goddess Mea's head making her frown.
''Stop let's continue with the meeting.'' Goddess Mea stopped the other Gods and Goddesses from pursuing Nix.
Alex was shocked by what was happening, he had trouble understanding what happened, why the white-haired goddess with red eyes looked like something important had been stolen from her.
°°°°°
Meanwhile, Nix teleported and appeared before a normal human house. She floated above this house observing it as if trying to check something but she was simply admiring her house.
From the outside, this house looks very elegant. It has been built with tan bricks and has tan stone decorations. Short, wide windows let in plenty of light and have been added to the house in a fairly asymmetrical pattern.
The house is equipped with an average kitchen and two modern bathrooms, it also has a fairly small living room, four bedrooms, a cozy dining room, a sunroom, and a roomy garage.
The building is shaped like a T. The two extensions extend into cloth sunscreens reaching the end of that side of the house.
The second floor is bigger than the first, which creates several overhanging parts on several sides of the house. This floor has a different style than the floor below.
The roof is high and pyramid shaped and is covered with grey roof tiles. Two small chimneys sit at the side of the house. A few round, small windows let in enough light to the rooms below the roof.
The house itself is surrounded by paved ground, with an outdoor eating and relaxing space and various potted plants.
After admiring her house built using the mortal house as a template Nix teleported to her bedroom and unlike what one would have expected of the room of the Goddess who governed over death it was surprisingly warm.
If you walked in a forest at first light, if you let the awakening green hues into your soul, that would be the sense that was her bedroom. There was a calmness, a serenity, a feeling of optimism.
As soon as Nix walked into her room she clutched her chest and vomited a mouthful of black blood, she tried to reach the nearby wall but failed to do so.
Nix's vision went blurry as tears filled her eyes as intense pain assaulted her. Biting the pain was barely an option as agonizing cramps seemed to crush her insides from within. Panic slowly took over as, for a moment, a way out of this pain began to seem more and more unrealistic.
She had not felt pain since a long time ago, so long that this feeling seemed almost foreign to the goddess.
It took them a minute or two to gather her composure, but conflicting thoughts still plagued her mind.
She felt thirsty and tired and sweat stains were visible now, the feeling of pain continued to torment her as she lost part of her divinity. Divinity is what makes them different and more powerful than normal God because only higher-level beings can possess divinity. Therefore losing part of one divinity is something one should never do because getting back is more difficult than acquiring, especially now that the Chaos prince was trying to swallow everything.
Naturally, losing a part of one's divinity means your power would be lowered, and so is your rank of Godhood, thankfully Nyx only took a fraction of Nix's divinity to teach her a lesson. Also, she didn't want to completely fallout with the gods as they could be used. By doing this to the curious goddess Nyx was certain that instead of seeking trouble with Alex because of the loss suffered under Nyx's hands, she would be curious instead trying to learn more about Alex, curious as to why he had such powerful existence protecting him and there is saying that when a woman was curious about a man, it was only a matter of time before she fell in love with that man.
Nyx was aiming for this, having a pure-blooded Goddess under him would be beneficial for the future, the Goddess of death planned. If only Alex knew what plan Nyx was hatching he would have been shocked speechless not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Meanwhile, unaware of what Nyx had in mind, the injured goddess wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and her eyes shone, instead of feeling pain she was in awe. She wanted to learn more about this woman, she had the feeling that her strength that has been stagnant for a while would progress, and her dominion over death would increase if she could observe this person. To do so she had to get closer to the boy whom this person contacted and Nix got the perfect plan, she remembered a certain flat-chested girl former classmate of Alex she could put to good use.
''Fufufu! I'll make her my champion to fully use her. Fufufu! wait for me master I shall join you soon.'' Nix laughed as she walked into the bathroom.
The bathroom was a place of washing, of nurturing our sanity with the sensation of warm water and aromatic soaps. For the body must feel loved and cared for, for then it feeds back these messages to the brain and begins to set up a positive cycle of wellness.
''Soaking in that heated water, feeling it hug every inch of skin so gently, breathing in the aroma of the bubble bath... it was my heaven... my mini-vacation... a place to breathe deeply and let my inner peace return,'' Nix muttered as she continued soaking in the heated bath.
''Let's quickly finish the bath and join the others.'' Nix wasn't worried to miss out on anything from the ongoing meeting because this room was special, time here was accelerated, even if she were to spend one hour here only a minute would have passed outside, it was why she was leisurely taking her time while also organizing her thoughts, let's not forget that she was recovering as well.
