The Moon Goddess and Her Mate novel Chapter 37

In a forest that is located on earth, not far in front of a cave mouth,

“Yes, you were right. She was me. You finally recognized me." Atvertha said softly.

"Oh, my ... I never expected to meet you here," Armen replied with a little stammer. He seemed to be at a loss for words, because the girl standing in front of him was so charming that all normal men would fall in love if they saw the beauty of the Moon Goddess.

What dream did I have last night until I met this woman again? She is so damn pretty! She could not be an ordinary girl because she had just changed her dress in a blink of an eye. I have to ask more about her, especially about who she really is, thought the burly man.

Before the eldest son of two siblings could say anything, the Queen of Witches had raised her right hand, then aimed at the body of the opposite sex, so that Armen was abysmal for fear that something might happen to him. “Clenantzh tuthrezth tehtrz etvh mortale!” [1]

In less than five seconds, a white light shot out from the right index finger, then shot towards that handsome guy's body. Armen, who witnessed such an event, could only remain silent as if he had been hit by magic that made him obey. The spell entered the target's hand, then quickly spread throughout the male mortal's body.

What is she going to do with me? There is no way that girl was going to kill, right? I hope that situation does not happen because somehow, I am sure that she is a gracious lady, Armen muttered to himself.

One minute later, the burly man felt something different, so he stared at his body. It dumbfounded Armen because the clothes and pants that had been dirty from falling because of chasing an insect that had a bright light at the end of its body were now clean again. In fact, when he touched his hands and face area, he felt nothing sticky anymore.

"What did you do?" Armen asked spontaneously.

Now, the extrovert man is sure that this young woman is not an ordinary human, but he does not yet know whether Atvertha belongs to which group of magical creatures. Hearing this question, the only daughter of the couple, God Helion and Goddes Atvexia, just smiled and did not want to answer at all. Suddenly, an idea crossed the young man's mind, so he tapped his forehead slowly as if he had forgotten something very important.

"Please forgive me if I am not polite," said Armen, full of regret.

The young goddess only replied with a nod and a sweet smile. The thirty-five-year-old man extended his right palm to the girl, causing a question mark in Atvertha's heart. “May I know your name, lady? My name is Armen. Armen Faustus Lugthna."

The woman with the sharp nose welcomed the helping hand. They were shaking hands. Armen felt the girl's skin was cold, but he did not want to say it openly. "Sure, you may know, Mortal. My name is Atvertha. Goddess Atvertha."

“Goddess? Does that mean you are an actual goddess? Where do you live?” Armen again asked a few questions, but he still did not let go of the handshake.

“Yes, I am a goddess. I live in the sky. In my parents' palace.” Atvertha answered these questions with pleasure. Unknown to them, there was a pair of eyes watching the girl's behaviour, also witnessing the conversation between the immortal goddess and the bloody male mortal, which was all done in silence.

"Why did you call me 'mortal'? Is that a call meant to insult humans?" It disturbed Armen because the man had heard that nickname from the lips of the goddess he admired.

"I called you 'mortal' because that means you come from the earth, especially ordinary humans who can die. I used it only as a differentiator against immortal gods and goddesses like me and not as a mockery as you would expect.” The Crossroad Goddess did not seem offended by such a question, so she answered calmly, so that Armen also understood, and did not prolong it.

That green-eyed man let go of the handshake, and so did Atvertha. The conversation that had been created was stopped, thus making the atmosphere so quiet. Armen stared at the opposite sex without blinking, and the girl realized this incident. However, she did not mind at all.

"I saved you when you were dying in the forest," said Atvertha, softly.
