Chapter 1007: Chapter 32: Day After Day
The Holy Water of the Eternal Pool flows gently.
Just as the Goddess of Love and Virtue, Shunni, shed the almost transparent long gown she wore, preparing to bathe in the Eternal Pool to maintain her youthful vitality, a soft laughter suddenly came from the faint pink mist not far away. Following that, two breathtakingly beautiful figures emerged, one following the other, dressed in luxurious long gowns as they casually walked over.
The goddess walking in front was extremely radiant and naturally very beautiful. She wore a white ancient Greek long gown, had a casual smile on her lips, and glanced at the Goddess of Love and Virtue, Shunni, from afar before lightly removing the flower crown from her head and gracefully stepping into the Eternal Pool.
An unexpected guest!
She almost never left the Holy Mountain of Olympus; even the Goddess of Love and Virtue, Shunni, hadn’t seen this goddess’s incarnation for nearly a hundred years.
The Greek Pantheon’s Goddess of Beauty, Love, and Lust, Aphrodite.
Her beauty almost matched Shunni’s. She used slightly aggressive eyes to examine the almost naked Shunni up and down, a hint of comparison in her gaze. Then she too shed her ancient Greek long gown and slowly stepped into the Eternal Pool.
Another goddess followed behind her, possessing exquisite elven features and a very graceful figure that was equally stunning.
The Elven Goddess of Love, Hanali Celanil, also known as Lady Goldheart.
With the arrival of these two goddesses, the Cat and Lust Goddess Charice immediately grew timid. No need to mention Aphrodite; the Greek Pantheon was the pillar of the Wild Expanse, although they generally ignored the matters of the Divine Country. Their influence on the Free Terrain of Olympus was very significant.
Hanali Celanil was another aspect of the Elf Goddess Angeris, a triune goddess. After Avondor, her status was equivalent to Hera, the Divine Queen of the Greek Pantheon.
The first Divine Queen of the Elf Chief God Corellon was the Spider Goddess Queen Rose, and the second was Angeris.
"It seems a human has been here?"
Hanali Celanil’s expression showed slight surprise; a faint glow emerged in her eyes and, in an instant, she saw Duncan’s figure—the scenes from just a few minutes ago. Relying on the laws of divine format power, she could glimpse matters related to beauty, love, and art that were happening or had happened.
A male human with surprisingly beautiful form.
It seems he received Divine Grace from Shunni.
But it has little to do with herself. Hanali Celanil lazily shed her magnificent gown and lay into the Eternal Pool, even beckoning playfully like teasing a kitten at the Cat and Lust Goddess Charice nearby.
She was Shunni’s ally, more like a beloved pet cat whom she often liked to tease.
The most common goddesses seen at the Eternal Pool were her and Shunni.
Aphrodite hardly appeared, but today seemed to be an exception. Her gaze was profound, watching the spot where Duncan once stood, a hint of confusion in her expression, for she seemed to feel a subtle connection with this mortal.
This is the Bright Water Realm.
Geographically, its specific location is — the first layer of the Free Terrain (Greenwood Glade) — the Bright Water Realm.
It has different names in different worlds, but the most widely known are ’Olympus’ and ’Avondor Country’.
Within the Wild Expanse, the two most powerful Pantheon Divine Countries are the Elf Gods and the Greek Gods.
However, the Greek Gods are indifferent to the main Material Plane of the Divine Country Heaven.
They are more like a backdrop of the Wild Expanse, well-known but rarely encountered Otherworld gods.
Yet there is an exception.
That is Aphrodite; she occasionally appears near the Eternal Pool, symbolizing youthfulness and vitality, usually as a beautiful goddess incarnation, with intervals between appearances possibly spanning decades or even hundreds of years, before returning to the Holy Mountain of Olympus.
Shunni proactively stood up and nodded, expressing respect towards the Twelve Main Gods of the Greek Pantheon Olympus, and Aphrodite also smiled, exchanging polite gestures between them.
Though they are indifferent to the Divine Country Heaven, no one would underestimate the Main Gods of the Holy Mountain of Olympus.
No one knows how long it passed.
After bathing in the Holy Water of the Eternal Pool, Aphrodite slowly got up. Her incarnation was exceptionally beautiful and filled with the laws of the divine position of lust, causing other goddesses to feel a slight playfulness.
The Eternal Pool bestowed her with the feeling of youth and vitality; after bathing, Aphrodite slowly rose to leave, but before exiting this domain, she suddenly turned back towards Shunni and casually asked: "What’s the name of that human?"
Shunni’s expression was somewhat surprised; she didn’t know why Duncan would attract the attention of the Greek gods, but out of respect for the Greek Pantheon, she gently replied, "Duncan-Starfall."
"A powerful mortal from the Divine Country Heaven."
"Also, one of our chosen ones."
Duncan?
Aphrodite’s eyes twinkled, a hint of deliberately concealed excitement in her gaze. She nodded casually, saying, "Indeed, a rare beautiful man."
Has His Majesty arrived?
Aphrodite didn’t know, but her sudden impulse to visit the Eternal Pool today was indeed unexpectedly motivated, as if driven by a subtle urge to leave the Holy Mountain of Olympus for a walk.
