Bloodlight Goddess Ru

CHAPTER 43

[CHAPTER 43: Goddess Guidance...]

The air around Zeran became frozen. He felt that he was having his worst nightmare, as he heard Ange's taunting voice, despite she was the light Goddess. Soon, Ange continued to tell him by the phone,

"Shocked that it was me who called you?"
"Instead of Mai, Arseia or your beloved DARK GODDESS RU?".

As he was hearing more of Ange's words, he was steaming with sudden rage, making him to grit his teeth. Though, he tried to control his composure, so he just responded complacently,

"Yeah...who knew you have a nice voice over the phone..."
"By the way...err...is Ru, mom and Mai there?".

Ange replies,

"Hold on...".

There was a long gap of silence from the phone, it seemed Ru was truly in Ange's place in a dire situation. Sooner or later, he heard Ru's charming voice such as she was a worried princess,

"Hey there Zera..."
"Oh it seems we came into a pinch here..."
"Also she is kinda desperate now..."
"For now that plush d—".

Suddenly, Ru's voice was interrupted by Mai's furious voice,

"Zen, Ange's nuts..."
"She put us like birds here, in a frickin' cage..."
"Come here fast...".

A little while later, he heard Arseia's voice filled with motherly concern this time,

"Zen...my son...I guess I underestimated Angehime's and Nassus's stubbornness..."
"Sorry but, you'll have to do something on your own here...".

There was a long noise of distorted silence afterwards. Soon, Ange spoke to him,

"Yeah...did you hear each of their voices?"
"Seems you're their only ho—"
"Ahhh! Nassus...hah...stop that...hahn aahhhn♪...".

Though, her sarcastic voice over the phone was suddenly interrupted for some reason. It's as if Zeran was hearing her womanly moans dipped in spearmint licorice instead. It seemed she wasn't on her own, rather she was accompanied by a third party that she had spoken of. She ended the call immediately, turning Zeran to be isolated in his own space. His face looked numb and his sheer cold hand dropped the phone due to the recent news he had heard. He let out a grinning smile that was almost in the verge of losing sanity and he expressed with a forceful laugh,

"This can't be happening right?!"
"RIGHT?!"
"HA-HA-HAHAHAHA...".

His hands were holding his head, as he was uncertain in his thoughts,

("What should I do now? Mom...Mai...and my love Ru...".)

Suddenly, the Ru plush doll came out from the kitchen. It went near him, although it lowered down it's sad head, since it was witnessing that he was lost inside his thoughts. More than that, the plush doll noticed that Zeran was letting out pitiful tears, since he doesn't know what to do next. Thereon, it jumped unto his shoulder and rubbed Zeran's head with its soft arm. Zeran felt like that Ru was patting his head, trying to calm him down and letting him to think clearly, even though her plush doll was the one doing the said action. He was feeling kinda relaxed and he had stopped leaking out tears of hopelessness from the abyss. He took a glance at the plush doll that was on his left shoulder and uttered out her name,

"Ru?".

The Ru plush doll nodded in response. Zeran grabbed it. He was wreathed in sweet petals, as he was lifting the plush doll and kept staring at it. His tensed self calmed down. He embraced it such as he was embracing his beloved dark Goddess Ru, making him to be determined even in his thoughts,
