Chapter 662 What’s Meant To Be, Will Always Find Its Way

Everyone was speechless after hearing Cethus’ reply.

It was like watching two kids having a verbal fight, and the loser was threatening the one who had beaten him by saying that they would call their parents in order to take revenge for them.

“Are you a kid?” Cai asked in an amused tone. “You’re going to tell your Grandma if someone offends you?”

“You’re one to talk,” Keane interjected. “When you get bullied, the first thing you do is threaten people using your Grandpa’s name. You’re no different from Cethus.”

“It’s different. My Grandpa gave me permission to use his name when I get bullied. Cethus is just being Cethus.”

“Well, you do have a point.”

Cethus pretended that he didn’t hear the two annoying fools that were talking smack behind his back. He simply gazed at Aur as if challenging him if he had the guts to mess with his two Grandmas.

Aur turned his back on the Dragon Born and led his subordinates without even saying another word.

Cethus had twin Grandmothers.

One of them was the current Dragon King’s right-hand lady, whose authority was second only to him.

Cethus’ other Grandma was the Supreme that guarded the Crystal Palace against all threats. She was also Keoza’s Steward and was considered to be the temporary leader that everyone obeyed without fail.

Basically, Cethus could be considered one of the Untouchables in both the Karshvar Draconis and the Crystal Palace.

However, this poor Dragon Born couldn’t do anything to the people whom he recognized as his comrades, who liked to talk crap about him anytime they wanted. Follow current novels on novl(ꜰ)ire.et

Aur pressed his palm on the Gate of Famine, and turned into an orb of light, flying into its center. The rest followed suit, and soon, everyone belonging to his faction was no longer in sight.

“It’s time for us to go as well,” Lux stated. “Remember. Our goal is to clear the dungeon. Avoid any conflicts with the Crystal Palace and the Skystead Alliance if possible. However, if they take the initiative to attack us, we will definitely beat them up to a pulp. Now, follow me!”

The Half-Elf walked towards the Gate of Famine and pressed his hand over it. Soon, his body turned into an orb of light and flew towards the Gate.

Cai and the others followed because they also wanted to start their conquest as soon as possible.

At that exact moment, the Silver-Haired Devil reached out his hand from the darkness. He ignored the other orbs of light that flew past him because his gaze was locked on a particular person, whom he wanted to take revenge on.

However, as soon as he was about to grasp the Orb of Light that represented Lux, it vanished, which surprised the Devil greatly.

“Someone interfered?” the Silver-Haired Devil looked at his empty hand in disbelief. “But how?”

After his initial shock, he closed his eyes in order to pinpoint Lux’s location within the Gate of Famine, but for some reason, he couldn’t find any trace of him, which made him wonder what was going on.

————–

High above the world of Elysium, the God of Gamblers was looking at the three dice that he had tossed earlier.

Each of them was showing the number 666, which made Macuilxochitl chuckle.

(A

/N: Let’s just call him Max for short.)

“Nice toss,” Eriol commented from the side. “Fortunately, luck is on your side today.”

“Mmm.” Max hummed as he picked up the three dice in the air. “Lux is still not ready to face the top Dogs of the Void. I won’t let this Devil have his way.”

Eriol smiled because he, too, felt that it was still too early for Lux to face off against the Abyssal Legion.

“Too bad, we can’t interfere often,” Eriol said as he looked down at the orb of light that was traveling between the border of the Void and Elysium. “We may not be able to save him next time.”

“Worry not. Both of us have taken a Gamble,” Max replied as he looked at the Dices of Destiny in his hand. “As to whether we will hit it big or not, it will all depend on the roll of the dice. Sometimes, I wish I could cheat in gambling. But, even the God of Gamblers must follow the rules given to him.”

Suddenly, the two Gods heard two lively voices behind them, which made them turn around.

“Lily, are you sure this is fine?” a little God, who looked like a two-year-old baby wearing diapers, said while flapping his angelic wings. “The Gods have already abandoned this world. We shouldn’t be here.”

“Relax, Cupid,” the Loli Goddess, Lily, said with a smile. “We’re just sightseeing. We’re not doing anything illegal, right, Dim Dim?”

The Dimsum God that was perched on top of Lily’s head nodded its head while saying the words “Dim Dim!”

“See?” Lily looked at Cupid with a smug smile on her face.

“Um, if you say so.”

“Don’t worry. We’ll somehow wing it like we always do!”

“Dim Dim!”

The three little Gods were so busy talking to each other that they didn’t notice Eriol and Max looking at them with weird looks on their faces.

“What are the three of you doing here?” Max asked in a loud voice which startled the three Gods, who were busy chatting with each other.

“Oh my God! It’s old pervert Max who watches Hent*i on his PC!” Cupid exclaimed. “Mom, this guy is bad news!”

“D-Don’t worry!” Lily spoke up in an encouraging tone. “I got the extremely rare, limited edition, Doki Doki Director’s Cut. Maybe we can use this to distract him!”

“T-Toss it, Lily! Hurry before he catches us!”

“Dim Dim!”

Lily no longer hesitated and tossed the Blu-Ray DVD in her hands toward Max before making a run for it.

The God of Gamblers had gained notoriety within the Temple of the Ten Thousand Gods for his unique taste and his circle of friends, which were composed of the New Generation Gods, namely the MILF God, Lolicon God, Furry God, 2D God, and BD** God.

“Wow, they ran like their lives depended on it.” Eriol chuckled as he watched Lily’s and Cupid’s backs disappear into the distance. “Your reputation precedes you.”

Max snorted before taking a closer look at the Doki Doki Eroge Game that Lily tossed in his direction.

He then sneakily put it inside his robe before once again looking at his chosen candidate who had arrived at the boundary of Elysium and the Void.

A place where once a powerful and prosperous kingdom thrived before it was destroyed when the Abyssal Creatures first descended upon the world.

“It might take a year, it might take a day,” Maximilian said softly. “But what’s meant to be, will always find its way.”

Eriol nodded because he understood what Max was referring to.

They were the only two Gods who hadn’t abandoned Solais and, if possible, they wanted Lux to succeed in saving it.

They were doing this, not for their sake, but for the memory of a very dear friend, who had sacrificed her life to give the world of Solais a second chance at life.
