Chapter 194: Looking for a fresh start

Elsaris Pov: 

I was in a secret office, this room is in a poor restaurant that has almost no customers, a facade to hide this office. 

This time it was just me and Jay in this spot, we're sitting across from each other as I finish checking this week's smuggled goods list. 

"Are you saying you left her at that little Vampire's mansion by the name of Zenos?"  (I) 

"Yes, my lady."  (Jay) 

"(So I was right, the neutral faction envoy came because of him.)" (I) 

"What did you think of her for the short time you accompanied her here and then to Zenos's mansion?"  (I) 

"She is a total mystery, I couldn't see her appearance or even feel her Aura if I closed my eyes I wouldn't even know she was there, her concealment level was too high."  (Jay) 

"For some reason, she doesn't speak, you can only communicate with her through telepathy as you yourself experienced."  (Jay) 

"Yeah, I noticed the same things, she also seemed calm all the time and didn't let on at all why she came here."  (I) 

"But I have something to report that she can't talk before."  (Jay) 

"What would it be?"  (I) 

"I found out how she came to this continent, she came being brought by a Dragon."  (Jay) 

"Have you seen the Dragon?"  (I) 

"No, I just felt the remnants of her presence, but that alone was enough to make me shiver with fear, it was definitely not a simple Dragon."  (Jay) 

"This information alone is of great use."  (I) 

None of this makes sense, the level and amount of concealment items she was using was abnormal, her communicating only by telepathy was also strange, but the strangest thing was that she asked to be taken to that mansion the moment she arrived. 

"(It's frustrating not knowing what's going on, I knew I should have contacted that Vampire Zenos sooner.)" (I) 

"Ask them to keep an eye on that mansion, but don't let anyone in there."  (I) 

"About the Eclipse mansion, I have something to report to you."  (Jay) 

"What is it this time?"  (I) 

"As you instructed I took the envoy to the gates of the Eclipse mansion and then came back."  (Jay) 

"When I was in front of the mansion I could feel that the miasma around the mansion was different, not only that I could feel a powerful hiding barrier all around the mansion's grounds."  (Jay) 

"..." (I) 

I was completely speechless, how it is possible for a barrier this size to appear and no one notices, nor can I imagine the level of preparation and items used in a ritual to make something this large. 

"(The people in this mansion are either crazy or are hiding something important in there.)" (I) 

Jay and I continued the meeting for a few hours, we went over the information we had on Zenos and his group, I was doing this to try to find some clue as to why this neutral faction envoy was here.

Zenos Pov: 

After taking a shower and dressing in some last-minute new outfit Tania made for me I head to the room beside the ballroom where I meet the people the Goddess Selene wanted me to meet. 

This person is wearing a hooded robe and a mask, she is completely hidden, not only that but Nira stopped me on the way to let me know that the clothes, mask, and accessories this woman is wearing are all magical items she cannot appreciate with her skill, all she has been able to discover is that the necklace this woman is wearing seems to be the most powerful item. 

I tried to use my detection ability on her, but it surprised me to realize that I didn't feel anything, didn't detect her energy, presence, blood, or vital energy, not only that I can't even smell her even though I'm so close, one thing What took me a while to get used to was my sense of smell has improved like my skill and becoming stronger along with my other senses throughout each of my evolutions. 

"(Why is she hiding herself so deeply?)" (I) 

"(If it weren't for the shape of her body I wouldn't even realize she's a woman.)" (I) 

I walk up to our guest and sit opposite her, as soon as I entered the room I realized that everyone else was present, but none of them sat, they were behind the sofa facing our guest, they were waiting for me to sit there. , so I did it. 

After I sit down Caryna and Alice take a tray of appetizers and two glasses of juice leaving one in front of me and the other in front of our guest on the coffee table between us. 

"Nice to meet you, my name is Zenos."  (I) 

"..." (guest) 

"..." (I)

I try to introduce myself first, but she doesn't say anything, so she reaches inside her overcoat pockets and pulls out a folded paper, handing it to me next. 

The paper was handwritten in beautiful calligraphy, there were few words written there just saying that this person cannot communicate normally, to talk to them I have to use a skill, magic or telepathic technique to communicate through our minds. 

I found this strange, there are many strange things in this whole situation and in this person, but I made a promise and I will keep it, I don't think the Goddess Selene would do anything to harm me since she has been the one who has helped me the most since I was born this world. 

I used a simple telepathic spell of non-elemental magic that Irina taught me, I used that spell by choosing only me and the guest as targets to have an uninterrupted conversation. 

"(Can you hear me now?)" (I) 

"(I could hear you before too, sorry I couldn't answer you properly before.)" (Guest) 

"(My name is Vanessa, I am delighted to meet the holy son.)" (Vanessa) 

"..." (I) 

How does she know that I only found out about it a little while ago, I thought only the Goddess and I would know it, I haven't even told the others all the details yet, after all, how am I going to explain being a child of a Goddess? 

"(How do you know that?)" (I) 

"(I'm sorry if I surprised you, I'm a priestess with an oracle skill, I was honored to hear the voice of the Blood Goddess on a few occasions, she was the one who told me about you in my long sleep.)" (Vanessa) 

"(Are you a priestess?)" (I) 

"(So you are the priestess of the Goddess Selene? Is that why she chose to send you here to watch over me?)" (I) 

"(Yes and no.)" (Vanessa) 

"(I'm a priestess, but unfortunately it doesn't give Goddess Selene.)" (Vanessa) 

"(The holy son is also mistaken for my reason for being here.)" (Vanessa) 

"(If you are not her priestess, then whose are you?)" (I) 

"(I'm a priestess of the God of Light, Baldr.)" (Vanessa) 

Hearing this I get up and remove my weapons while I jump backward putting me in combat position, the others not having heard our conversation are with faces confused by the sudden change but they also have weapons in their hands and in combat position, but Vanessa doesn't move from his position and doesn't make a single move. 

"(Please calm down holy son, I'm not an enemy, I actually came here looking for help.)" (Vanessa) 

"..." (I) 

"(You were mistaken to think that the Goddess Selene sent me here to watch over you, in fact, she sent me here for you to help me.)" (Vanessa) 

"(If that's true then why are you so hidden away?)" (I) 

"(Because I am hiding from the believers of the God Baldr and the influence of the God of Light Himself.)" (Vanessa) 

"(Centuries ago I was a devout priestess, but then I gradually realized that the teachings of the Church of Light went against my own beliefs when I questioned these things I found myself in a dangerous position and had to flee.)" (Vanessa) 

"(Unfortunately you cannot run away from a God, his believers can feel my presence and God himself can use his blessing that he gave me in the past and that he had accepted at the time to influence me.)" (Vanessa) 

"(At that time the leader of the neutral Vampire faction helped me and welcomed me into her family, turning me into one of her daughters.)" (Vanessa) 

"(Unfortunately that wasn't enough to help me, on the contrary, it made the God Baldr's influence on me a curse that will lead to my death eventually.)" (Vanessa) 

"(But thanks to my becoming a Vampire I was able to listen to Goddess Selene, she told me I could free myself from the influence of the God of Light if it came to you.)" (Vanessa) 

"(These concealment items are to hide me from the God of Light and His believers, I cannot remove them until I am free from that influence.)" (Vanessa) 

"..." (I) 

"(All I'm looking for is a fresh start for me, that's why I'm here.)" (Vanessa) 

But what a crazy story is this, she said she's been running away from a God and the whole Church of Light for centuries? 

But how can I believe this story, how can I trust someone I don't know, I'm not even sure of Goddess Selene's intentions, to begin with, I always feel like she's up to something. 

Sigh 

A promise is still a promise, I won't break my end of the bargain, Goddess Selene may be hiding something from me, but I don't feel like she wants to harm me so I'm going to trust her this time and try to help this priestess. 

It also means that the reason Goddess Selene sent her to me was to save her and not to watch over me, but how can I free her from the influence of a God? 

Wait, the Goddess gave me something when I found her while I was evolving, she told me to give it to the person who would come in her name and I should use my abilities on her for that so I already know what I'm supposed to do.
