Chapter 905: 896 My Beautiful Monster (Prologue)



Volume 5 Part 2: My Beautiful Monster

With every villain, there is a deeper tale than a simple tale of revenge, or madness. His story and hers, were far more deeply integrated than anybody realized.

XX centuries ago.

In the Northern Kingdom of the five realms, there sat a castle made of pure white marble perched on a mountain. The owners of this grand estate were known as the Goddess of Life and God of life. Norah the goddess of life, light, and sun. Alexander the god of life, order and stars.

Bellow was a town filled with humans, and not creatures like themselves. These two godly beings were seen as an unusual one since they chose to reside in the human kingdoms rather than the realm of the gods.

Yet nobody could dislike them for their choice. The God and goddess treated everyone kindly and with respect. They were loved by their fellow gods and goddesses, and loved the most by the humans. The town under the goddess of life and god of life continued to prosper, and soon more and more people came to live there.

They lived peacefully in the northern kingdom for five hundred years. Even when the town of humans changed over time, the respect from the humans never wavered. But with love and respect, came devotion and devotion can lead to some crazed believers.

Norah peered through the curtain to see a group of villagers climb up the steps. These villagers all wore unusual white hoods with an emblem of a star on them.

'I have been seeing a lot of those people lately. Is it a new fashion?'

"Lady Norah, get away from the window."

"But, Nene." Norah pouted. "I haven't seen any of the villagers for a while. What if they need something?"

Nene shakes her head. "Those aren't the villagers we know Lady Norah. They are crazy worshipers."

"Well me and Lex are a god and a goddess." Norah pointed out. "It's actually weird we are only seeing this type of behaviour now."

Nene pulled her away from the window. "No, no. Lady Norah, this behaviour is too unusual. Wait until the Lord returns."

"Lex has been going away too much recently, and he hasn't been taking me with him. But he has no problems keeping me trapped in the manor. Am I his prisoner or am I his wife?"

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm "Of course you're his Queen. But the Lord worries about your safety. The human worshipers aren't normal."

Norah shakes her head. "This isn't the first time humans have tried to worship us. With our status as the Goddess and God of life, we have had many people worshipping us like this."

"And everyone is thankful for the prosperous life you have given them. I understand those feelings too, I am thankful to you and the Lord. But, make no mistake my lady. There is a difference between devotion and love. The devotion these people are showing is dangerous."

With those words Nene exited the room and Norah put her knitting down. She was knitting a scarf for Lex since it was getting colder. But after that conversation she wasn't in the mood anymore. How can human devotion be dangerous?

Five hundred years have passed since they have settled into this town. They have witnessed at least fifty generation of humans, and she has made so many great friends amongst them all. She doesn't like the idea of having to turn against them. There are already so little gods that treat humans well.

If this matter truly causes a rift between their people, she wouldn't know what to do. Her husband would most-likely suggest they move back to the spirit realm. Every single time she visits there, her friends and the council always try to persuade her to return. But the spirit realm no longer feels like home to her.

The northern Kingdom. One of the five Kingdoms in the human realm, this place. This place is home. The home she built with Lex.

Her thoughts break off hearing approaching footsteps. There stood her husband by the door.

It was Lex.

Norah happily rushed over to her husband only to see him wearing armor. She blinked and then turned back to the window only to have her husband pull her into his arms. "Do not look my Queen."

Look at what?

But Lex is dragging her to the next room where there bed was. She giggled knowingly. "You're very needy, my husband. But I think I should be punishing you for leaving me alone."

Lex sighed deeply. "Come now my wife. Do you really intend to do that now, when I rushed here so to kiss you?"

"Oh? It seems the great King has become soft. If it is only a kiss you desire, I am sure the kitchen maids will be more than happy to offer you one."

It was a joke of course. She can't even stand the thought of Lex looking at another woman for a long time, let alone allow him to kiss them. While human Kings have not only a wife but several mistresses, she has discovered that Lex does not have any intention of following those traditions. In the spirit realm too, such a thing wouldn't be frowned upon. However from the very beginning of their courting, Lex has remained loyal to her.

Even long before they discovered the bond between them. The bond simply intensified those feelings.

Lex growled and gently tossed her onto the bed, as he hovered over her with the look of a predator in his eyes. He lowered his face to place kisses down her neck.

"It is not only a kiss I want from you woman."

Her gaze softened. "It's not?"

"I want everything from you, will you give me that, my Queen? My everything?"

"Since you're asking so nicely." Norah caressed his cheek. "Do what you want with me Lex, I will allow you."

She was wrong, so very wrong. Nene had been correct. The next time she hears a scream like that a few days later. She rushed to the balcony to see one of the hooded humans, stab one of her servants. The stabbing already shocked her but what came next, made her stomach churn. The cloaked individual raised the staff in the air and whispered some words and Norah watched the life force of her servant being drained away.

Her face colour turned white. W-what had she just seen there? What was that?
