Rise of The Anti God (Web Novel)
chapter-464

After Farah was taken away, Yuria shook her head with a relieved sigh, "Now we don't have to worry about that venomous woman. Still, I didn't expect at first that you would do something like this."

Valentina proudly smiled as she hugged Damien's arm, "Of course he is not the old Damien, you know...to me he is someone who knows when to stomp on annoying worms."

Damien chuckled as he patted Valentina's head and said, "Haha, well, after living in this world for some time, it did change me in some ways. I am sure you get what I mean, Yuria."

Yuria nodded, knowing perfectly well what he meant since they both knew how vastly different this world was compared to their previous world.

"So now what's the plan now that we have taken care of the loose end? I know you want to return to the Xeton Empire after this," Yuria asked with her hands on her hips.

"Yes, but before that, we have to go see what that sacred weapon is about. After all, we told the little king we would be back after settling things here. Since the Shizar Kingdom is near to the Xeton Empire, I thought we could go visit the kingdom again on our way to the Xeton Empire," Damien said with a thoughtful expression.

"So we are leaving the Gale Empire for good?" Valentina asked as she tilted her head.

Damien took a step forward and looked at the large doors of the mansion as he said, "For now...With Tristen here and Kale to work together with me, I don't have to personally stay here. I already have my claws deep inside this empire enough to rip its heart out when the time comes. At that time, that lustful emperor won't even know what hit him," Damien said with a piercing glint in his eyes.

He then looked at Yuria and asked, "Thinking about it...you need to be under disguise when we return. Would a simple disguise ethereal energy work for you?"

Yuria confidently smiled as she snapped her fingers, and her enchanting appearance was covered by a misty energy before revealing an average girl's face, though her willowy body features remained the same.

"Because of my Chaos Ethereal Core, I can modify my aura as well using my ethereal energy so not even my father can recognize me if I want to. A person's aura is said to depend on their elemental seeds as well, and since I can manipulate all the elementary ones, it gives me a certain control over my aura as well," Yuria explained, much to Damien's astonishment and relief since he didn't have to worry about her disguise.

He knew that one could disguise their face to look different using their ethereal energy to an extent, just like how he modified some of his facial features to become Godnim. However, this was only a physical change, and those who were familiar with his aura would be able to figure him out.

However, Damien had Luna inside him, who helped him to make his aura feel and seem different to even the people that knew him, especially Drake.

Otherwise, he could have been exposed by those who knew him despite masquerading around as Godnim.

"You are so cool!" Valentina gleefully hugged Yuria's neck, feeling awed by her abilities though Yuria felt the same towards Valentina as well. Both girls were already appreciating each other for their powers and their love for the same man.

Yuria smiled as she held Valentina's arms, feeling that this was how it felt like to have a sister. Since she was an only child in this life and her previous one, she never experienced how it felt like to have a sister, even if not blood-related. And since both loved the same man, it only seemed like a bonus since they could share and gossip everything between them unrestrained.

Damien smiled, seeing these two getting along well, and felt that he worried needlessly about having a harem. He felt that all his lovers could coexist in harmony.

'Lily...please hold on for a little more...I will come for you soon…' Damien inwardly thought, thinking that he had been away from her for too long despite staying in touch through letters. He knew nothing could beat seeing her personally and feeling her touch.

Two years seemed like a short time for him, but when he thought about the things he had to experience and go through all these months, he felt like these two years seemed quite long.

And the moment he thought about the Xeton Empire, Reva's face flashed in his mind, making him inwardly mumble, 'Why am I thinking about her? Could I be...sigh...Maybe once I see her again, I would know things for sure…' Damien inwardly sighed, feeling complicated about Reva since he first approached her with ulterior motives but only later on, he wanted to foster a real friendship with her instead of deceiving her since he found that she was unlike her father.

She was the coldest yet pure and elegant woman he had ever met and also the one who made him feel something in his heart.

He knew she had already started to open up to him and saw him as her friend. In the end, she was a lonely girl with unknown burdens on her shoulders whom she could not talk about to anyone, including her own family.

Damien always felt that something was weighing down on her though he didn't know what and wanted to find out more about it.

"Damien? Which woman are you thinking about?" Yuria asked with a peeved look though her lips were trying hard to stifle her giggle while Valentina pursed her lips as she stared at him, wondering if Damien was repeatedly going into dreamland because of a girl.

Damien awkwardly coughed, "Ahem, of course not. I was thinking about my next moves in the Xeton Empire. Anyways...let's leave that for later and set out for the Shizar Kingdom. You two pack your stuff, if any, since we are leaving this empire."
