Chapter 942: Finding Stryxus
Ning stood there and watched as the portal closed off. White was gone forever, and the chances of meeting him again were all but nonexistent.
“Is the portal truly gone this time around,” Ning asked.
“No Constellation can mess with it, right?” he asked.
“Of course,” Ning said. He took a deep breath as the problem was finally over, even if it had come at the cost of sending back White.
Now, there was something else he was going to do.
“Go home, Sorlus. You will find the direction in your bracelet,” Ning said.
“What about you, master?” Sorlus asked.
“I will have to stay. There is another problem that I have to deal with,” Ning said and flew away.
Sorlus flew away as well, moving at an impossible speed as he went to Korea.
“Can you find him?” Ning asked.
“Huh? Why?” Ning asked.
“What? Do I have to fly to space?” Ning asked.
“His own power?” Ning asked with a confused look. “What power?”
“Okay, good,” Ning said. His divine sense appeared from within him, reaching half the world in an instant. He found the girl, being surrounded by some other people that were talking to each other now that most of the saving had been done.
He immediately teleported and arrived next to her.
The group of people there jumped back at the sudden arrival of Ning.
Instead of being scared, however, each of them pulled out a weapon from somewhere as they got ready to attack.
They stopped when they saw that it was a human.
“Goddamn, don’t scare us like that,” one of the men said.
Ning looked at the blonde-haired young man who had just said that. He could feel a lot of mana from this man.
Other than that, he looked at the others there and noticed something peculiar about all of them.
“Oh, you guys must be Apostles,” he said. It would make sense that they would try and meet someone new.
“Oh, it’s you,” the girl said after finally recognizing Ning.
The others looked at her. “Who’s he? Your friend?” they asked.
“No, he is one of the people that helped today. He was going around saving people just like we did,” she said.
“Oh, good work, brother,” the blonde-haired man said with a friendly smile.
Ning nodded and looked at the girl. “Call your god here,” he said.
“Huh? What do you mean?” the girl asked.
“Your god, Stryxus. Call him here,” Ning said.
“Why would i—”
“Just do it. I’m not in the mood to speak much today,” Ning said with an annoyed look on his face.
The girl frowned a bit and started considering if she should do as he said or not. However, remembering all the people he saved, the girl couldn’t find any excuse to refuse.
“Okay, I will do so,” she said. “How do I do it though?”
“Grace, you just have to call for him. He is a god, he will hear your call,” a girl said. “Although they usually prefer to talk in private, this person seems to want to hold a conversation or something. I’m curious what someone would say to a god.”
“I see,” the girl, Grace, nodded and clasped her hands together as she brought it to her forehead and started to pray.
“What is it?” a voice came and she opened her eyes. Everything around her was clouded in darkness. It was close to evening, but even midnight was never as dark as it currently was.
“What do you want from me, little girl? Do you want to ask how good a task you’ve done?” Stryxus asked.
“I doubt I’ve done anything exceptional. I wouldn’t be surprised if I’m the worst of the Apostles you have raised,” the girl said.
“Oh, so you didn’t call me to praise you? What is it then? Do you want more power?” the Constellation asked.
“No, god. The reason I called you is that someone told me to. Apparently, he wants to meet you,” the girl said.
“Someone wants to meet me?” Stryxus suddenly got angry. “That’s why you called me? Because someone wants to meet me? Are you insane girl?”
Grace stepped back a little in fear. She didn’t expect her god to get so angry. Maybe she had inconvenienced him.
“I’m sorry, god. I didn’t know you would dislike being called like this. It was my mistake. Please forgive me,” the girl begged quickly. She didn’t know what she would do if she lost the powers she had gained today, the same day her family had died.
She was already devastated by one thing, she couldn’t handle something so tragic happening on the same day.
“You better be sorry,” Stryxus said. “Next time you think of calling me for something so stupid, think more. Do you think I would simply appear for just about anybo—”
A hand came through the darkness and grabbed onto Stryxus by his neck.
“There you are,” Ning said as he pulled the horrible-looking god from his darkness and back into the world of light.
“Nice to see you, Stryxus,” Ning said with a menacing look. Stryxus tried to fight back, but he couldn’t. He was surprisingly powerless in front of Ning.
“It seems I can’t take my chances with you,” Ning said as he tightened his grasp. “System, Link!”
