Chapter 83 - Chapter 83: Noite's Arrival

Noite stared at the beautiful girl in front of him. He was captivated by her sparkling amethyst eyes looking straight back at him.

His amber eyes blink a few times in disbelief. This is the girl he has been looking for all this time.

Noite can't take his eyes off her. He is mesmerized by the charming lady with captivating purple eyes that draws his attention. He is simply awestruck.

'Why does she sound like Euer? Are they the same person? Euer is a man, right? Or is he...?'

He knits his brows as he continues to contemplate the situation. He can't even believe this individual deceived him.

"Noite?" Eu calls out.

Now that he thinks about it. Euer's voice is gentle, sweet, and feminine. It is impossible that he(or rather she) is a boy.

"Euer. I'm sorry. I didn't expect you are a girl. You look different." Noite explains.

"No. It's okay. It was necessary when I go around. My friends said I look conspicuous, so I put on a disguise when I go out." Eu confessed.

Noite turned around and looked at his men. He can tell that everyone is accounted for and selected from the crowd. He is impressed.

"Don't worry. I promise they won't be harm. Haru and Triteia will accommodate them. For now, someone is expecting your arrival." Eu reassures and informs him.

Noite raised his hand and told his men to wait. He turned back to Eu while he approached her, still in a dazed state. It somewhat surreal that everything is happening much faster than he expected.

Not to mention, he can't believe Eu is directly in front of him all along. How can he miss it?

What kind of disguise spell did she use to create such a perfect disguise? He wanted to inquire more but decided to shove it on the back of his head.

He looks around the infamous the Golden Inn in the middle of this once-bustling town. Noite always wanted to look around and check the place, but he is always pressed with time.

Now, he has all the time to examine and marvel at the place everyone in town was raving about. This place is exquisite despite the simple decorations.

Magic is regulated, and not anyone is welcomed to this place.

Meanwhile, Eu escorting him to the uppermost room they usually rent. She used the secret stairwell to gain access to that place.

The hallway is lighted by light yellow Solas Gems and decorated with assorted spring flowers. Their footsteps are the only thing they could hear as they head their destination.

"Euer..." Noite started.

"You can call me Eu. You already know, right? You were looking for me, after all. You asked someone to track me down." Eu interrupted.

"Yes. It is quite embarrassing that I talked too much. I should have noticed it was you all along." Noite bashfully confessed.

"No, it's okay. I am certain even the Divine Lord will fail to recognize me if he passed me by the streets." she chuckles.

Eu turned to him as she winked and placed her finger on her lips. She is requesting him to keep some matters between them.

Noite nods as he smiles. His handsome, gentle face ease up a little while he loosens his red scarf on his neck.

His platinum silver hair gently falls as he removes his hood. Eu's eyes sparkle as she sees his hair shimmer under the light. His hair releases a mild sweet scent of coconuts, and she can say unique to him.

He was utterly enchanting.

On the other hand, Noite can't believe these are the same people we were trying to subdue for months. How can they treat him nicely?

They stopped in front of the beautifully carved door. Noite felt a familiar presence as his heart started to race.

"Lord Foeni is waiting inside. This is the reason you are here, correct? He also wishes to speak with you." Eu informed him.

She made a gesture for Noite to enter the room. He was speechless by how well they were treating them ever since their arrival.

"Aren't you even afraid of me? I might be pretending to be nice and all. I can pose as a threat..." Noite asked.

"Well, I do want to inquire how you manage to avoid my monitoring spell and among other things." Eu candidly replied as she continued, "Besides, I might be the one deceiving you and already ordered to wipe out your men downstairs. This room could be your final destination. How can you easily trust me as well?"

She does have a point. He decided to take his chances on Mystic Spirit than wait for his brother to track him down.

Noite remained silent as he thinks about it. He can't deny how easily they manage to enter, and they are obviously anticipating their arrival. They must be planning something.

It is plausible, but he believes they are not that kind of people. He doesn't want to suspect they plan to dispose of him on such a beautiful establishment.

They should choose an old shabby place to dispose of a body and not a fine establishment for tourists.

'They are not like that, right? I don't feel they are hostile at all… Am I wrong to assume that?'

He shrugged at the idea as he opens the door. Noite continues to drown on his thoughts and analyze the situation.

Lord Foeni saved him from an ambushed, and he can't possibly mean him harm, correct?

Eu is like a beautiful angel who descended from heaven. She is graceful, accommodating, and friendly. He always considers Euer as a friend.

He is still a Lord of the Nether Realm, and Mystic Spirit is an ally. Though, he is also involved with his elder brother's misdeeds as a Shadow Lord.

He purses as he bit his lip. That doesn't sound too promising despite the weighing positivity.

Meanwhile, the sweet citrus, minty scent quickly assaulted his senses. The room is filled with newly brewed tea and freshly baked bread.

Noite closes his eyes as he inhaled the welcoming scent that captivates him. His mind was cleared of his pessimistic thoughts as he felt his hunger.

'Darn, I haven't eaten anything for days. Are they trying to win me over with food? That is crazy. I am hungry...' he thought.

Killing someone for a decent meal has crossed his mind, but he didn't mean it literally. He doesn't want to scoop that low.

"Noite...?"

Another familiar voice calls out, bringing back to reality. This time it is a male's voice he cannot mistake for anyone else.

"Ravikanth!" Noite exclaimed.

His eyes almost pop out as he saw the tall, gorgeous man wearing purple robes. He gulps as he looks slightly different from the way he remembers him.

"You've really grown..." Noite mumbled.

Lord Foeni sighs as he heard his comment. Of all the things he would say, he will drop, something like, 'You've grown.'

"I believe we last have seen each other for about ten thousand years ago, correct? It is natural for me to grow." Lord Foeni chuckles.

"Oh, yes, of course. You were just a teenager when we parted ways. It's natural to see you have changed this much over the ages..." Noite agreed gleefully.

It's been a long time since they last have seen each other, and he can't express the waves of comfort it brings. Now he has broken ties with his brother, Ravikanth is the next person he could rely on.

Noite has known Ravikanth for the longest time, and he is like a younger brother to him. Still, he was a bit reluctant to seek his help because of the disturbance he led these past few months.

He has no excuse if Lord Foeni will hold him accountable despite their past. Still, there is really no one else he could turn to aside from him.

He is desperate.

"I know it is wrong seeking your help after all I did..." Noite began.

"Yes, indeed it is, but have a seat, and we will discuss it later. You must be starving." Lord Foeni interrupted him as he guides him to the table.

Noite was about to reply that it wasn't necessary, but his stomach growls and betrays him. Noite's face turned beet red while Lord Foeni's lips slightly curved up.

"Come on. Don't be shy. It's alright. I am not going to poison you if you are worried about that. In fact, I have a proposition. Let us discuss it over meals. Shall we?" Lord Foeni calmly said.

Noite helplessly sighs and unable to reject his offer. Not only he is hungry, but he also wants to discuss matters with him. This is actually a good deal.

"Alright." Noite replied.

Divine Lord Foeni flashes one of his dashing smiles as he leads him to the lounging area. So far, he is quite satisfied with how things are turning out.

Meanwhile, Eu is watching them and listening to their exchanges. She can assume these are childhood friends but didn't expect they are intimate.

'That smile is not even appropriate. Is he seducing him or enticing him to eat?' Eu silently complains.

Though she knew they are only friends, she can't help feeling jealous of them. How can they ignore her?

She rolls her eyes as she continues silently airing her grievances. She simply felt dejected.

"Little Eu, aren't you going to join us?" Lord Foeni called out and brought her back to her senses.

"Huh...?"

"You are not planning to leave me, are you? You are not my subordinate to stand in a corner and wait. Come join us." Lord Foeni insisted.

Eu purses her lips to hold her smile. She slowly follows him, as well.

Meanwhile, Noite quickly notices how these two act rather peculiar. They seem trying to hide something so obvious.

'Are they really...' he thought.
