"Ugh… Finally, I can have some peace with all of them gone." Serene sighed as she cracks her neck slightly while walking towards Ayame who was still kneeling on the ground, and when she finally arrived in front of Ayame, she saw her looking at her with an expression that tells her she was afraid. And when she saw that, her heart seems to break slowly, she already knows what kind of person she was deep inside. Her personality is just like Yuki, but the only difference is that she wasn't as cold as her, yes she can be cold and kill someone without a care, but their difference is that she wasn't the type of person that would kill just for fun like Yuki. She doesn't like the idea of killing innocent people, even if she has killed countless people, she has never killed someone just because she found them an eyesore, annoying, much less an innocent. Unlike Yuki who has killed less than her but is cruel in terms of many ways, as she likes making her enemies suffer by torturing them and many other cruel things, and also adds the fact that she has indirectly killed Millions of people that were innocent because of her actions.
Seeing the look that Ayame was giving her, she knew that she was afraid. It made her feel bad, but at the same time, she understand why. After all, anyone would be afraid of someone if they see them mercilessly crushing that person apart, and just one single thought made her fearful that it might be the reason that Ayame might leave her in the future.
"Are you now terrified of me?" But despite feeling the bitterness in her heart, she acted as if it didn't matter to her if Ayame was terrified of her. She didn't want to look even worse than she already is in front of her.
"Terrified? Of course, I was! How can you ask me that? I almost saw my Wife get killed in front of my eyes because she fought with a Primordial God, a being that can create and destroy the Heavens as fast as you can blink!" After hearing Ayame's response, the rock that was in her heart fades away as she now understands why she was afraid. She completely misunderstood Ayame's emotion right there, and to say that she was relieved was an understatement. She felt that she was the luckiest person to ever live right now because not only she has the looks, power, influence, money, and anything that you could ever think of she has it. But not only that, she has a loving and caring Wife that supports her just as she does.
"I'm sorry, but I just couldn't stand it when that fuck was trying you disrespect both of us. But I promise you, I will be careful in the future. For your sake-, no our sake," Serene hugged her from behind as she apologized right into Ayame's ear, and in response, she shakes slightly. That was the last thing she had expected Serene to do, but when she hears her promise, she felt relieved because she knows that she can always trust Serene. And hearing the words "Our sake" was undeniably assuring for her because it means that she wasn't only thinking about herself, she was thinking about her and Yuki which made her happy.
"I… I hope that you keep your promise. Now get off me, there's a chance that she might wake up." Ayame accepted her apology, though she was not really mad, she was most fearful of what might happen if things weren't stopped by Alisha who seemed to have lost a lot more than Zirel even though he was the one who caused the mess.
"Come one, let's go now. We can stay here forever you know?" Serene sighed in relief after she heard that Ayame accepted her apology, she then stood up and helped Ayame stand up before saying that they need to leave now.
"But how about her? I can't leave her, she might need my help, definitely at this kind of time. She doesn't have her right arm which is a serious problem, and we don't even know whe it is going to grow back. So, how can I go back?" Ayame immediately rejected the idea of going back, and even if it was Serene who was insisting that they should go back to their home, she wouldn't listen.
"Silly~ Did you think that I meant than go back to the Celestial Star Heaven? I mean that we should not stay here anymore, I'm sure that you are uncomfortable here, so why don't we go back to Yuki's house?" Serene chuckled after she see how Ayame misunderstood her words so easily, though no one can really blame her since her tone was so serious that those who were listening also thought that she was serious about going back to the Celestial Star Heaven.
"So that's what you mean… Don't scare me like that! I really thought that you mean that we should go back to our Heaven…" Ayame puffed her cheeks slightly as she tried to throw a kick at Serene but because she was carrying Yuki she had failed before she could even try because if she kick her right now, her knees might hit Yuki's back, and the last thing that she wants to do, hurt her.
"Can you show us the way back to Yuki's Villa?" Ayame turned towards Mirel and the Gods of the Mortal Realm who were quietly watching everything and it didn't even take a second before all of them nodded. Lucifer then made a portal back to Yuki's Villa, but she didn't enter first, she let Ayame and Serene enter first before she and the other Gods entered behind her, and behind them was Mirel's army who looked like it lessened quite a lot which was inevitable.
After going back to Yuki's Villa, Mirel, and his family has send his farewell before he also took her leave since he was going to be quite busy in the following weeks or even months. The things that had happened in the past few weeks were simply too much, and he was going to need a lot of time and especially patience if she wants to do everything as smoothly as possible.
"Goddess Serene, Ayame. I will take my leave for now, because I feel like the Royal Palace is going to need my help to sort everything out. So please, if you excuse me…" Mirel bows his head as he headed out of Yuki's Villa, but before he got out of the door, he met the Gods of the Mortal Realm. And seeing them, he stopped and also said goodbye while thanking all of them since they were there to support his whole Army when the War was going on with the Royal Destruction. They were there to support the Army by telling them what to do and handling the situation very carefully so that they can lessen the chances of failing and dying in the process, and because of their help, they were able to minimize the damage. Only 7% of them had died in that battle which was already better than what they had originally thought they would lose.
"No problem, it's the least thing we could do." Lucifer shrugged it off like what she did was nothing out of the ordinary.
