Two Stars Collide: Part 2 - A TCF/LCF Fanfiction

Chapter 332

Around noon the following day, unrest became noticeable amongst the entrapped nobles of Roija. Many tried to leave the Grand Hall, but were immediately restrained or blocked by very irritated Royal Knights. Some even attempted to amuse themselves by antagonizing the pitiful servants. To their dismay, their actions were reported to their Sun who openly admonished them for abusing their rank. Unfortunately, there was not much she could do to cure their boredom as the Cursed One's followers were still hiding somewhere within the palace. Fear continued to nag at her because they kept failing to locate them and the perpetrator who poisoned her. She had even sent her trusted confidants to search the secret passageways. How could someone exist, but not exist at the same time?

"Your Majesty."

Just as the woman turned to face the approaching trio of men, a surge of intense divine energy flowed out from within the nearby makeshift enclosure. Almost every single person within the entire building and its surrounding structures ended up helplessly collapsing onto the floor. For those who didn't faint, they couldn't stop trembling from the abnormal pressure. Such a powerful holy presence. Was a God descending?

Struggling to remain conscious the Queen watched as the five people completely unaffected by the aura rushed towards its source. Although two of them did seem to have a dark violet shroud protecting them. Within what felt like hours, but was only a matter of minutes, the suffocating pressure vanished. As if it had never existed in the first place. At the same time, a faint white barrier enveloped the place where it originated. Possibly to protect them from what was inside.

""Papa!""

While the majority of the outsiders were too bewildered to get up off the floor, an extremely excited flock of children ran to greet their guardian. Their shout alerting the humans of the source of such an intense presence. Several of the ministers peeked over at the disguised mixed blood who appeared to be relieved by their reaction. Just how many secrets were the Crossman and Henituse Households hiding from the citizens of Roan? There was no way a human could have such a presence. Even one favored by multiple Gods. Right?

Stealthily, one of the men who served the second prince pulled out a notepad to record his thoughts. Except his portable fountain pen was snatched out of his hand by the baby faced Saint who snapped it in half with a frightening grin. His fuchsia eyes were like venom coated daggers as the God of Youth's representative coldly warned.

"Sharing other's secrets will result in an early death. It would be in your family's best interest to pretend you don't know anything."

Dropping the broken writing instrument onto the ground in front of the official, the holy man playfully tilted his head and asked in an unnervingly cheerful voice.

"Got it?"

Terror was visible on the older man's face as he hastily nodded his head in confirmation. An even brighter smile spread across the Saint's lips.

"Good~"

Without saying another word he strolled over to where the God of Love's group was rapidly gathering. There was a slight skip to his step which worsened the minister's fear. How could the representative of the God of Youth be so terrifying? For those serving War and Death it was somewhat expected. But youth?!

When the deity woke up, he found himself resting in a bed covered in hundreds of crystalline blooms. Groggily, he reached up to rub his eyes prior to noticing his arm was radiating brighter light than usual. Without even realizing it, a victorious smirk spread across the youth's lips. He had completed his third growth phase! Meaning he was getting closer to being able to kill his infuriating opposite without having to die himself.

"Cale."

Undisguised reptilians focused on the man who raised him. However, the grim atmosphere instantly erased his glee. Something had definitely happened while he was unconscious.
