Chapter 1002 275: Love and the Fickle Divine Favored—Kael's Starry Night
"Helois Monarch, we are all quite clear on what both sides truly want from each other, the birth of a timeline will inevitably face some kind of obstacle.
No matter how well prepared you are, it can't be completely smooth, let alone that now your Yibel Federation doesn't even have a truly solid backing...
Your actions will only be a farce, pleasing the high and mighty deities just a little, serving no real purpose. And despite this, have you still decided to take action?"
"Who knows?"
"This time, I've come to give you some advice. The sacred Briania and that esteemed person have been quite patient over the years, but patience has its limits... I can roughly guess that you might have thought of some clever strategy, thinking you can break the impasse.
But to be frank, it's impossible. There exists a huge chasm between both sides, one that you won't be able to cross in your lifetime."
As he said this, the gaze of the Divine Favored of love and change suddenly turned towards the impassive Bartlett, as if telling him with his eyes not to attempt to partake in this battle.
However, Luxius slightly stepped forward, blocking in front of Bartlet Monarch, showing a cold smile identical to that of the Divine Favored of love and change, saying:
"You don't need to worry about that, everyone is responsible for their own choices, and we prepared ourselves mentally a long time ago."
The Divine Favored of love and change let out a chuckle, revealing a competitive yet joyful smile, "Then there's no need for us to exhaust ourselves to maintain balance, as for you, Helois Monarch..."
The Divine Favored of love and change turned around, preparing to leave with two divinely chosen ones. As they were about to depart, his gaze swept towards the two frowning Magic Monarchs at the back, saying with a smile:
"Prepare to face judgment!"
And then he didn't linger further and strode away.
...
With the departure of the group from the Divine Favored's Church, some people showed a bitter expression, some sighed as if relieved, some looked more determined, as if finally making a certain decision.
But none of this hindered the party from becoming increasingly lively.
In fact, although at first the tense atmosphere caused a brief standstill, once certain people departed, the scene soon grew more lively.
Because the sudden attendees once again disrupted Kael's plans, making his work busy for the rest of the time.
As people at the party each spent time in their own ways, it wasn't long before, as the orchestral band started to slowly move, everyone knew this should be the time for the final dance.
Those who already had dance partners exchanged smiles, starting to gather into the center of the dance floor.
As the orchestral music played, the venue slightly dimmed, the spotlight beams darting around the hall, the mirror ball's light pouring into the surrounding space.
Those flickering lights, like a carousel, changed with the music, gradually pushing everything towards the final conclusion.
With the dance music slowly ceasing, as if the world returned to calm at that moment, only the leisurely sound of footsteps could be heard.
"Are you afraid?"
Kael, dancing with Elanna, amidst the swaying, at the moment the music stopped, pulled her into an unlit corner away from the spotlight.
He spoke gently, his gaze clear as he looked at Elanna.
"Are you afraid to stand by my side?"
Due to Kael's actions earlier, Elanna, who had been somewhat dizzy, seemed not yet entirely clear-headed.
But she understood Kael's meaning.
Just like the many words spoken during the recent confrontation with the Church, Kael was clearly now being targeted by a group of very dangerous people.
"To ask this now, Kael, you're too cunning..."
Elanna looked at their interlocked fingers, as if the previous vague struggles and dilemmas had been gently unraveled by his slender fingers.
"What's there to be afraid of?"
At the moment she said these words, the lights in the hall came on.
By now, due to the dance, the venue had entered the most lively stage. In fact, everyone had been full of curiosity and confusion when they saw Kael holding a young girl's hand and dancing together.
But Kael seemed uncaring, leading Elanna's hand up to the stage, standing in front of the microphone.
"Hello everyone, I apologize for intruding. Hmm... with this special opportunity, I wish to share with everyone a person very important to me."
Kael's voice was firm and solemn, gentle words seemingly turning into a steadfast vow at that moment.
"She made me realize that I can choose to endure and wait for others, even though most of the time, I think I'm not good at it.
She helped me discover many aspects of myself that I had never known and silently accompanied me all the way to today."
Elanna turned her head to look at Kael, at this moment the stars sparkling outside the window illuminated him from behind, like the gaze and blessings of everyone present.
Perhaps, she had imagined this scene countless times.
Her emotional dullness was like a house with tightly closed doors and windows, even though the interactions of love circled back and forth in front of the house, she'd heard them, but she always thought they were passing footsteps, ones that could leave her anytime.
