Chapter 582 Memorial Part 2
The place where the seal was located was now filled with gods and mortals a like. They looked at the large dome covering the huge gate at its center with gloomy expressions. Blake and his wives stood in the sky looking down at the people below with a touch of sadness in their eyes. The true god of the mortal world was forced to give up everything to protect it.
Blake did not feel good about it at all. But he knew at this time that was all that could be done. Someone had to be the sacrifice and Anu decided to do it himself. Blake looked at Ishtar and Nanaya and reminded himself to make sure never to let these two girls down. He had made a promise after all.
"Today we celebrate our victory and also mourn the loss of a man who gave up everything in order for us to win against the devils. Anu was someone who lost his way. He knew this and used his own life as a means to make amends. He was a respectful man and deserves praise for his thoughtless act. I know the war only started and ended quickly, but this was because I stopped time. Anu and I were the only ones moving around in the world that time did not flow. I spoke with him on a personal level. I want all of you to know that I will do what I can to try to figure out how to seal the gate to the underworld without needing him to sacrifice his being.
"I made a promise that I would do such a thing and I hope you all can help me. How long will it take? A year…. Ten years…. Maybe a million years…. I do not know. But I do know one thing. I will keep trying until I finally figure out a way. This day belongs to us. But it also belongs to him."
Blake paused as he let out a long sigh. "Let\'s lower our heads for a moment of silence."
Once the moment of silence was over, Blake created a plaque that read: "Here stands a man who put everything on the line for Earthkind."
After everything was settled, Blake went to Destiny City. In a medical room, lying on a bed with an IV stuck in her arm, Destiny was lying there looking very weak. When Blake walked in his expression was filled with mixed emotions. He did not even know if this girl wanted to see him or not. He had been so hard on her before that he was not sure if he should even be here.
"Papa…." Destiny\'s weak voice filled his ears. He looked at the girl who just opened her eyes, unsure of what to say. "It\'s fine, Papa…. My wound is almost healed. If I was a mortal, I would have surely died, but luckily, I am a goddess."
Seeing the faint smile on Destiny\'s lips caused Blake to feel slightly relaxed. "Destiny, thank you, but please never do that again…."
"No…." Destiny shook her head. "No matter what, I would do it again. Papa, you need to understand your importance. None of the people in Destiny City, including our mamas, are able to take over your role. You are the pillar we all lean on and look up to. No matter if it is now or later, I would still make the same decision. I will use my life to make sure you can keep being the pillar of Destiny City."
Blake did not know what to say. He wanted to yell at her for saying such stupid things, but she was hurt, so he did not dare make her upset. He sighed and looked at her with a complicated expression. "I just want you and all your sisters to live long, happy lives. Grow up to be beautiful girls who have families of their own. Give me a bunch of grandkids for me to play with so that I do not get too lonely."
"With so many wives, how can you be lonely?" Destiny stuck where it hurt most.
"You know what I mean." Blake smiled helplessly.
"I know. And I know what you are getting at. Don\'t worry. Joy and I already decided we will not push things. We even decided to split up since we were only using each other as a means to fulfill a wish. But don\'t worry. We still love each other. She is my little sister, after all. Maybe in the future, I will find true love. Who knows. But for now, I think I will take a few years and lose myself in creating puppets." Destiny smiled brightly. She was sad, yes, but she could not dwell on it. She had to push forward.
"Papa…." Joy\'s voice came from behind Blake. He turned to see Joy standing there with a bunch of things in her arms.
He smiled and waved her over. "Come in, we are just talking."
"Okay." Joy let out a sigh of relief. She did not know if she was interrupting something important or not. She walked over to Destiny and handed her a drink and a cut up fruit. "Eat this."
"Thank you." Destiny smiled and took a sip of the drink. "I told Papa."
"Oh." Joy scratched her head and looked at Blake. "Papa…. I probably won\'t be able to give you grandkids…."
Blake suddenly burst out laughing. Joy looked at her Papa, who was laughing at her, and turned bright red. "I am being serious! I like girls! I don\'t like men except for… Never mind… Just know I only like girls now."
"Okay. I understand. But you never know. We may be able to fix the whole same sex thing. But whoever you decide to have as your main wife, make sure you let us know so we can hold a wedding. I want you both to be happy. This is a rule I am putting down now. You both must live happy lives!"
