Chapter 210 - 7.9 Second Violet Star - Ice Spirit King
"Big Brother Neige!!!"
Lady Evans's voice echoes in the whole place as she calls for the being that just arrived.
The name of the Ice Spirit King is Neige.
Neige gently pats the head of the little girl. His movements were natural as if he had done this countless times before. The relationship between these two is clearly good. Which even made the pope who is witnessing such a scene doubtful.
"Little Angie, play with the others in the garden for a bit. I made some snow, you can make that thing you call a snowman from before," said Neige.
Angela the little girl happily agrees. She runs off together with the tiny ice spirits who were teasing her a while ago. After Lady Evans took off, the ice that frost Duke Damian had melted instantly even without the Ice Spirit King doing something about it. He lightly glances at Duke Damian and the pope and notices the wisp of divine energy within their bodies.
Neige spoke, "I see. The highest-ranked duke of Kingdom Hart is the hidden avatar of the Dark God while the ageless pope is the Light God's avatar. It is no wonder that the mortals say the bloodline of Damian is cursed while the Pope is a child of God. Who would have known that these great figures were merely puppets under the control of the twin gods."
As the highest-ranked Ice Spirit, Neige's existence is close to that of Gods. His strength is levels higher than the tiny wisp of soul Gods left in their avatars in the mortal realm. He had enough strength to ascend but chose not to.
Moreover, Ice Spirits were extremely proud, selfish, and aloof. Unless they've taken a liking to you, they would attack without question. They are extremely cruel towards their enemies but they love teasing those they like.
Neige was never afraid of the other gods, especially in front of puppets he could easily kill with a single wave of his hand.
Meanwhile, within Hei Anjing's Soul Domain, He and his System Yue were watching how things unfold after his death. Well in this case it was the body that died as Hei Anjing's soul came out of it.
Once he returns he could easily revive himself due to the immortality of his original bloodline. He just wanted to watch the idiot, the twins he had never expected, panic in his death.
Like they've confessed, it was their decision and plan that led to his death. Since they wanted him to die then he could die for them as they wished. As to what to do after that then that's their problem.
But seeing Neige, the ice spirit king, personally coming to pick him up is a bit unexpected. He sent a message to him saying to send someone to pick his body up.
While in the soul domain, the host and system duo were still watching in the live scene in the system holographic monitor.
Hei Anjing says, "I told him to bring my body back to Ivern but I've never told him to bring it back personally. He is the spiritual king of ice for god's sake. Why is he doing someone's errand?"
[Host, I've checked. According to this world's original plot, Angela Evans is supposed to take the original Eirwen Night's place as the Saintess but she also has an affinity with water elements. Neige is supposed to fall for her pureness and childishness which could lead him to give him his blessing.
Based on the story progress, Angela Evans after being plotted by Bela Laurel. She was abandoned in Ivern. Ela wanted her to die and ask someone to throw her into one of the forbidden lands, which is Ivern. Her story with Neige progressed and she became the sole being who got the backing of these proud and aloof Ice Spirits.
It was because of this that aside from becoming the saint, Angela received a rare title as the Ice Princess. After punishing Bela Laurel, she becomes the strongest Saintess in Aerd. Almost all the Gods love her.]
"What the hell is this? Isn't this supposed to be an isekai world? Why does it feel that it's an otome game world instead?"
[Host. Most Otome game worlds are under the Isekai genre, you know.]
"That... Seems true. Then is this a harem?"
[Nope. The protagonist is too young and all her love interest candidates were too old. It ended with just a sweet fluff and airheaded protagonist enjoying her life surrounded by numerous handsome big brothers.]
"So she is the destined Saintess. Do I still need to become one!? Let's just go with being a hero and slay the demon lord!"
[You can't kill the demon lord, Host. That is the god of darkness's avatar as well! You also can't become the hero of this world. The current hero is also the Light God's avatar as well.
Unlike what the world plot says, the Light God and Dark God weren't mortal enemies but just brothers who play roles with the whole world as their stage. The Saintess is just an extra for spice.
Moreover, since the Lord's position in this world is the Gods whose authority is the highest, it would be impossible for destroyers or other outsiders than us to enter without his permission. Your existence made them know that there are outsider souls beyond their control. After our entrance into this world they've shut off the connection from the outside worlds.]
"What the hell is this world!? Another vacation world?"
[Please be informed that Lord Hei Jue was shut out as well. Because of this my boss got beaten up and was thrown out of the bedroom. Hahaha~]
"Seriously!? Pfft~ hahaha serves him right!"
[By the way, I think you shouldn't be laughing. You should see your status board of this world.]
"What's wrong with my status board? Show me!"

After reading the contents of his own status board, Hei Anjing's face turned dark, especially after reading the last three titles under his name.
"Who in hell wrote these things!!?" asked Hei Anjing with a menacing tone of voice.
[The Heavenly Wills of this world are connected to the Twin Gods. In short...]
"Those fucking son of a bitch!! I want to ki-- ****.... *****.!!! ****.. *********. *****. *!!!"
Hei Anjing's words were completely censored for the curses that came out of his mouth like a fall.
Knowing that the reason for his status being this nonsensical is because of his husband's soul fragments, Hei Anjing almost revives his body on the spot and beats up the twin fools who made him angry this much. Thankfully, there is Zhi Yue who held back his host from causing domestic violence in this world.
---
Back at the scene in the temple of light.
The Ice Spirit King Neigt had approached Eirwen Night's corpse and moved him within the Ice coffin he had brought with him. Countless Ice Spirits move carefully as they move Eirwen Night's body within the Ice Bed.
The expressions of the duke and pope turned ugly at this scene.
Duke Damian says, "What do you think you are doing?"
"Did this Lucien allow you to touch what's ours!?" said Lucien.
Both of their voices and tones were full of anger and threats but Neige stayed silent and talked to his subordinates to keep doing what they were tasked to do.
The Ice Spirit King responded as cool as a cucumber. Fearless and proud.
"You've already killed him. You are not even going to spare his vessel? Hm, ~..."
The two avatars of the Twin Gods were startled with hearing the words Neige had just spoken. Just based on his tone, he is one hundred percent sure that he knew that they were the cause of Eirwen Night's death.
"How... did you know?" asked Duke Damian.
Neige lightly glanced at him and pulled a handwritten letter from within his suit. The letter was written too beautifully and every stroke shows elegance and indifference. There are even hints of the OCD attitude of the writer as every space, the height of the letter, and each length of the sentences were measured equally with perfect precision. This shows that the writer is a perfectionist.
The contents of the letter are simplified and straightforward.
It mentions the possibility of the writer's death. If he did die then his death is connected to Duke Damian. The authority of the body's disposal would be left for the Ice Spirit King, Neige, to handle.
And a PS was included. If someone didn't agree for Neige to take back the body of Eirwen Night, the Ice Spirit King must destroy the body on the spot. The signage of the letter is under the name of Eirwen Night.
Neige spoke, "Are you really going to stop me from taking his corpse back with me if the ending is this!?"
The Ice Spirit King taunts them but the two clearly view the youth as their most precious and fated person. They couldn't do anything to cause further harm after already causing his death.
The two could only watch the ice spirits moving their beloved's body out of their reach. Standing stiffly at where they are, unable to do anything but look.
The duke didn't stop Neige from taking Eirwen's body, instead, he asked, "Where are you taking him?"
The pope looks so interested in the answer to such a question. The ice spirit king didn't make things hard for the two and gave them an honest response.
Neige answers, "Back to our land in Ivern."
"Ivern. Could he live there?" asked the pope worriedly, he knew what kind of land Ivern is.
It's a forbidden land like the Spirit Forest but unlike the latter which is well known because of the existence of elemental spirits living in there, Ivern is the complete opposite of it. Ivern, the land of death.
Not even a single tree or a blade of grass grew in such a dead land. It is filled with mountains made of ice, winter in that place never ends and except for Ice Spirits and enlightened Ice beasts, nothing lives there. Since the winter in that place is unpredictable, many people who journey in such a place laid their eternal rest within the thick snow of that land.
"You might not know but... The one in the prophecy of our side is him. This is why all orders and commands he gave to me will be completed without a question. This includes fighting you two if he says a word." said Neige.
Tension spread in between the three and silence had once again descended. It was only cut off when Neige heard a telepathic message from his lord.
Hei: {Neige go to Ivern as soon as possible. My body would rot if more time takes place.}
The ice spirit king was startled when he suddenly heard his lord's voice within his head.
Neige murmured, "My Lord?"
Hei: {You can reply in your head. I can hear it just fine.}
Neige, "I will do as you order." He has forgotten that his words could be conveyed through his mind alone and spoke out aloud.
"I'm sorry my... Un~ a bit hard to talk in my mind, my lord."
Hei: {It's fine. You are the only one who could hear my voice right now. Before you leave, give Angie a protector class ice spirit for her defense. Let it get a contract with her. Now that I will no longer be by her side, that whore would start bullying her without holding back.}
"I will give Angie one of the Ice Wolf-type spirits for her protection. Anymore order my lord?" asked Neige.
Hei: {Return to Ivern immediately!}
Before Neige could respond to his lord, someone grabbed his arm. It was Duke Damian. The ice spirit king didn't even know when the two suddenly appeared in front of him.
The eyes of the duke were especially scary as they turned red filled with urgency and other chaotic emotions.
"You! Are you talking to Eira? Let me talk to him. Please!" said the duke.
Hei: {Pass my message: We have nothing to talk about. You've made your decision.}
Neige passed his lord's message to the Duke after removing his arm away from his strong grip.
"The lord says that there is nothing to talk about after all you've already made your decision to take his life."
The duke and the pope were instantly silenced by these words. The death of Eirwen Night is something they've caused. There is no rebuttal, no retort. The ice spirit king's words were full truth.
Hei: {Tell them I won't leave this world. If fate allows, they should be able to see me in the future.}
Neige lightly frowns but still passes his lord's message.
"The lord says let fate be the judge for the future."
The last sentence of the Ice Spirit King gave the twin god some hope. They were willing to wait for eternity until their love finally forgives them.
[Host, you are really soft towards the lord.]
"What are you saying? Do you not know what I will do once I've met them again? If I do meet them in the future you can just watch the bloodiest domestic violence in the whole realm. They fucking dare to call me Pervert!!?"
[Host even if you get angry as long as your vessel is Eirwen Night it's unavoidable to wear dresses in this world. Give up, host!]
Within the soul domain of Hei Anjing, System Yue finally witnessed how hysterical his host could get when angry. His little moon body could only hide in some cracks within the domain to avoid being inflicted with the aftereffects of his host going crazy.
