Chapter 238
The Celestials asked the leader simple questions. Has he seen someone that didn’t have a Star on this floor before? Did he ever give refuge to someone with powers he couldn’t explain? Was there anyone here who called themselves a god?
The leader’s answer to the first and second questions was obviously no, but once he was asked the third question he seized up, and his mind immediately traveled towards the god of their guild. Don’t tell me the one they’re looking for, is the god? Can I tell them about her!? No, it doesn’t look like these are her friends! They look too hostile! If I say something, then I don’t know what kind of trouble she would be getting into!
Dyana already helped the people on this floor immensely and so everyone here was indebted to her. She was the reason why all of them could live here comfortably without having to worry about food to eat or water to drink. The leader didn’t care if they were saying she wasn’t a real god. In his eyes, she was a god!
The leader was about to answer that he didn’t know anything about it, but he suddenly felt something seize him in place! He gritted his teeth and tried to break out, but he couldn’t move his body at all!
One of the Celestials, a woman, walked up to the man. He couldn’t help but admit that she was unbelievably beautiful. Her long white hair that flowed down like a river of silver made his mind go fuzzy. The long gown was covering her entire body, and he couldn’t help but want to see more!!
She put her finger on his head and he felt his mental defenses crumble like paper!
Her power penetrated his mind and she was able to look into memories without even trying. She traveled across his memories until she found one of the memories of his guild granting Dyana their sacrifice! Once that was done, she stepped back and released him from his bonds. The man fell to his knee while breathing heavily. By the time he looked up again, they were gone.
The Celestials all met up at the cave where Dyana usually resides. The ones who went to meet the leader of the White Rose guild didn’t even have to pry that much before they found exactly what they wanted. The idiot wouldn’t shut up about how amazing his god was and they didn’t have to dig too deep into his memories before they found out exactly who it was that was pretending to be a god! Stupid idiot only has Dyana in his head! it was too obvious that he was in love with her!
When they got to the cave, they could immediately feel the presence of a Celestial. Or at least they could feel that a Celestial was once there. Dyana had been in the cave for so long that every single bit of the cave was saturated with her power. This cave will probably provide food for this floor for many more centuries.
But there was no sign of Dyana anywhere. The Celestials searched around for a long time and passed information to each other when they didn’t find anything. They left the cave after a while of looking and still did not find anything. They had to look in other places as well.
……
Inside the void, Dorea was currently sitting at a table she constructed with Yuuma and Dyana sitting opposite her. She was happy that she managed to grab Dyana and bring her here before the Celestials found her. She didn’t know what they would do to Dyana if they found her, but it would not be something pretty. Immortal beings usually had the most innovative of punishments, especially since they know the victim wouldn’t die no matter what they did!
Dyana was sitting in a dignified manner, but it was obvious to both Dorea and Yuuma that she was stressed. She was just staring into space while trying to bring her mind into order. She could feel that the Celestials had already come to her cave to look for her. She couldn’t go back there now. The Celestials would definitely be looking closely at floor fifty from now on and if she ever went back then they would catch her immediately!
But what would they do to her people!? The chosen there who worshiped her were all so much weaker than the Celestials! If anything happened, then they won’t even have a method to protect themselves!
Yuuma was just waiting for things to calm down a little before she asks Dorea to take them both to Han’s restaurant. She didn’t know anywhere else for them to stay, and if the Celestials couldn’t find Yuuma all this time in Han’s restaurant, then they won’t be able to find Dyana either. As long as they don’t carelessly go outside, they should be fine.
It was very quiet for a long time, but Dorea finally decided to speak. She needed something to calm Dyana down and get her mind off her stress.
“Uh… So, Dyana. You agreed to unlock the administrator control for Han. Are you… Maybe…?”
Dyana was confused. Was she what? Dorea didn’t look like she could complete her sentence because she just blushed after some time, so Yuuma sighed and finally said it.
“Are you in love with Han?”
Dyana was silent for a few seconds before her entire face blew up in a blush! What was this idiot talking about!
“I-I… I… I don’t…”
Dyana groaned into her hands. Why did she sound so confused! She didn’t love Han! She loved his meat! Yes, his meat! There was no way she would love the one man that could create food that was better than anything she has ever eaten in her immortal life!
If only Dyana knew how that sounded in her mind.Â
Yuuma smirked.
“Looks like someone has a crush. Look how you’re blushing”
Dyana looked up and glared at Yuuma!
“And what about you, Miss ‘he’s the only one I trust’! I’m sure you already love him, don’t you! Even after saying you can’t fall in love with a mortal!”
Yuuma recoiled at the sharp comeback and she slumped to the table. Ah, Dyana got her good! She did say that she could never fall for any of the chosen because their lives were never going to be as long as the Celestials. For the Celestials, the life of mortals was like a single chapter in an encyclopedia! It was too short!
Dorea didn’t see anything wrong with falling in love with a human since she was also once human, but she could understand that Han would have other people who loved him. He was awesome, and even though Dorea knew that she was probably the first person to show Han affection all that time ago, she was not the one he fell in love with first.
Yuuma sighed as she leaned back in her chair. She was the only one here who could say she actually had a chance with Han since the other girls have never even spoken to him for more than a day, but she wasn’t going to be possessive. She already knew that Han was not a one-woman kind of guy. He wouldn’t mind a few more.
“Han already has four girls and it’ll be hard for you to have all his attention. If you’re looking for someone who will only be with you then I don’t think he’s the one you’re looking for. Personally, I don’t care about any of that. Han makes me drinks whenever I want so that’s enough for me”
The two other girls couldn’t help but laugh. Of course, that would be her response. Dorea didn’t really care if Han had other girls. She probably knew from the beginning that it would end up like this, that man is a pervert after all. But she loved that pervert. She just hoped he was okay. She still hasn’t gotten any feedback from his fight with the scientist! He couldn’t have died there, right!? No, she can’t think like that! She had to trust him.
“Okay, I think we can send you back now. Just stick to the restaurant and make sure you don’t come out. Han has put some sort of protection over it, so you won’t have to worry about the Celestials seeing you. The only way they will see you is if you go outside”
Yuuma and Dorea thanked Dyana for what she did. They knew she gave up more than just her freedom to help Han here, so they owed her a lot. Dyana hugged Dorea and waved off their thanks. She did it because she knew it was the right thing to do. Yuuma may think that she is the only one who put her trust in Han, but Dyana also believed that Han could make a big difference in this world.
She was only betting on the future and her freedom was a small price to pay.
Besides, there was also one other reason why she wasn’t against hiding at Han’s restaurant! Free meat!!!
Once Dorea dropped Dyana and Yuuma off at the restaurant, they were immediately assaulted with shouts coming from upstairs. The restaurant was closed and there were no customers, so they quickly made their way up. Yuuma was scared out of her mind! Was there a problem with Rina and Kim!? She didn’t think she needed to watch over them till they woke up because it didn’t look like they would have any issues anymore. They should be fine!
Dammit, Han was not going to be happy if his sister died!
