Chapter 1030: 16.76 First Red Star - It is really gone.
Somewhere in an unknown universe...
A man dressed in a silver and red Taoist robe was watching a data live surveillance. Only the tips of this man's hair, which was a mixture of silver and black, could be seen through the fog. A pair of silver and black irises was watching the video of Fenrir Skoll and the black-haired Cassius Ambrosia, whose vessel had been taken over by other Hei Anjing soul fragments.
"I wonder how long this farce has to continue. The Main Soul had been corrupted and made a sacrifice he is not meant to choose. God of Void, is that how you call yourself now?"
This man's voice was gentle, but it conveyed aloofness and apathy. He didn't hide his displeasure in his words, but his tone was calm.
---
Hei Anjing's soul fragments can use all of the main soul's abilities, especially after his feelings were shared with them, and the connection between each soul has grown stronger except for the Soul Core. Hei Anjing's soul core, like Xia Jieye before he merged with his main soul, had his own ego. Nobody knows where he is, but he can still command the other soul fragments for as long as he wants.
Cassius Ambrosia continued to sleep after the black-haired Hei Anjing left. Fenrir Skoll can only carry him to the bed and lie down next to him because he is in such deep sleep. The God of Void could only look at his wife for a few more hours before falling asleep beside him as usual. Cassius Ambrosia is experiencing whatever memories have returned to him in the form of a dream, unbeknownst to him.
Cassius Ambrosia is dreaming tonight about what happened in the Nether System during the Trial of Resurrection, the final stage of the Second Phase. He was perplexed at first by how the scenery in this dream reminded him of Deja vu. But when he noticed a familiar face among the others, he was taken aback to see the true face of A'Xia within the group. Furthermore, the beautiful yet playful man made me feel as if I were watching himself. It was at this point that he remembered what A'Xia had told him in passing about their previous lives.
The scene begins with A'Xia begging the smiling man not to do it. Unfortunately, the smiling man was unable to stop him. Cassius Ambrosia can only guess what was asked of A'Xia with the knife in her hands. Based on how they were acting, he couldn't hear what they were saying. Obviously, there is something they must do that cannot be delayed. A'Xia was the one struggling not to do it at all.
Cassius Ambrosia continues to watch and frown as he notices the smiling man with the same shade of eyes he asked A'Xia to do. He's like him, asking for his death. It perplexed him until he saw the final scene, in which the smiling man is finally killed, and A'Xia looks even more like a dead person than the one who was killed. He appeared to have lost his soul and gone insane in the end. His insanity was only halted when he reclaimed a body that appeared to be asleep in his embrace.
Cassius Ambrosia felt vile just thinking about how A'Xia reacted when he asked for his wish. He thought A'Xia's voice had cracked for a moment at the time, but it turns out he didn't hear it correctly. A'Xia's voice was trembling at the time, and he regretted it. Saying such a thing to the person who loves him the most.
When Cassius Ambrosia awoke, tears streamed down his cheeks, frightening Fenrir Skoll, who had awoken beside him.
Panicking at the scene, Fenrir Skoll worriedly asked, "Baby? What's wrong!? Why are you crying? Are you hurting somewhere?"
"I... I am sorry. I shouldn't have asked A'Xia to fulfill that wish. Let's just forget about it, okay? Just treat it as if I didn't tell you that wish." Cassius Ambrosia said.
In befuddlement, the Werewolf Ancestor wipes his beloved's tears. He couldn't figure out why his wife was crying so hard. Only after remembering what the other Hei Anjing had told him about sharing his memories with Cassius Ambrosia that night did he realize that his lover might have dreamed about something from their past that made him sad?
Gently caressing the corner of his wife's eyes and giving him kisses on his forehead and cheeks, Fenrir Skoll asked with a gentle voice, "Is it a nightmare? Don't worry, it's just a dream."
"No. It's not an ordinary dream. I saw... I saw A'Xia's real face in it. I also saw a man who seemed to be me yet not me at the same time. Is that the 'me' before I was born in this world?" Questioned Cassius Ambrosia as he recalled him in that dream asking the unwilling A'Xia to kill him.
Who would have guessed that even after being reborn, he would still ask A'Xia to kill him in this life? Isn't that too harsh? Just thinking about how desolate and lifeless A'Xia's face was in that dream made him think that if he had looked closely at A'Xia's face on the night he asked for his wish, he might have woken up sooner than now.
Fenrir Skoll rarely witnesses his wife's tears. His Jing'er is a powerful individual.
Even if he is in pain, he will never say anything. Even if he is lonely, he will not request a hug. It's because he was born powerful, and it's difficult to find someone to protect him. Only when he could barely hold it together would he cry, and he has the most influence over most of the things in this world that can affect his emotions.
This made the God of Void happy but helpless. After all, who in the world would witness his beloved crying for you? He can only pull his sobbing lover into a hug while soothingly patting his back.
"Even if those dreams are real, it is something that has happened in the past. No need to worry about it at the moment. Aren't you still by my side? Baby, don't cry anymore." Fenrir Skoll said.
Cassius Ambrosia tried to calm his emotions, but after suppressing them for centuries, he found it difficult to control them now that they were suddenly forced out. They had remained in their bedroom, hugging each other. It was as if they were the only people in their lives.

On the other hand, in another world different from the current one...
Those who had passed through the World Portal were teleported from their world to Fenrir Skoll's Primitive World. For the first time in their lives, Keylan Light and the others experienced what it's like to be sucked into a black hole only to wake up falling from a hundred thousand meters above the ground. Even Keylan Light started screaming because one of the two adults with them had forgotten that he could fly. Finally, the Heavenly Laws intervened in the form of the Light Elemental Fairy, halting everyone's fall before they reached the ground.
Before releasing the rest, the Light Elemental Fairy chooses an area that appears to be a forest. He couldn't fully control his ability in another person's world, and his powers were restrained as expected. Keylan Light examined the children and discovered that they were all right, except that some of them were puking from the stress of experiencing a free fall from the heavens to the earth.
Cough!
When Keylan Light lifted his head, he noticed his Elemental and only family vomiting blood. The Light Elemental Fairy had previously admitted that he is the Heavenly Laws of their world and had requested that Keylan Light name him. He addressed him as Mikaela.
"Brother Mikaela! Are you alright?!" asked Keylan Light worriedly.
Mikaela responded, "I'm alright. Don't worry. Instead, you go and explain the situation to the rest of them. I need to meditate for a bit."
Before checking on his students, Keylan Light checked on him to make sure he was okay.
The three couples got along fine. Four of the six don't seem to know why they're here or where they are.
Mayonaka Yoru looked around before they collapsed to the ground. They noticed that this place was very different from the one they had come from. There are similar modern buildings, but he had never seen them before. Furthermore, most people in that city smelled like beasts. They were werewolves like him, but not the same.
Esther Dawn was the first one to calm down and ask, "Instructor Keylan, can you please explain what is happening? We were supposed to be with him but suddenly we woke up when we were about to fall from the sky."
"This place is weird. I can feel countless presence peering on us but I can't find them at all. Instead, there are lots of beasts in this forest." Asher Light said.
Amber Dawn commented, "The air in this place is purer than I expected. Are you from a province and a non-urbanized area?"
"This is not our original world. But instead another world." Conri Lycaon said. "It was supposed to be only me and Athan. I didn't expect Instructor Skoll to bring you over as well. Though I can understand a bit if Elder Brother was included. He is a werewolf like me."
Asher Light and the rest were confused when Conri Lycaon mentioned his elder brother. After all, they all knew that Conri Lycaon is an orphan and an adopted son of Fenrir Skoll. Only Esther Dawn looked a bit surprised and stole a glance at his lover who was quite shocked himself.
Mayonaka Yoru said, "You... You remember? Did the King remove your seal?"
The former cardinal was in a bit of shock but at the same time feeling a bit uneasy. He had always imagined the worst of how his little brother would react when he learned about his identity as well his relationship with him.
Conri Lycaon nodded and said, "By accident, Instructor Skoll didn't remove it for me. Someone else caused it but that thing... is already dead."
Feeling out the hidden meaning in his little brother's words, Mayonaka Yoru frowned and asked, "Did something happen when we are asleep? In the dormitory? Hm~..."
Then he noticed that his little brother's crest on Amber Dawn's right hand disappeared completely. Only then he understood what happened, the Imprint Crest between a Luna and a Werewolf would only disappear if one of them died. Since Amber Dawn was at home with them that only meant that Conri Lycaon died.
Mayonaka Yoru asked with a trembling voice, "Did you die!? What the hell is happening here?"
"Calm down! I'm going to explain things now." Keylan Light helped Conri Lycaon with the explanation of the current events. "Before that... Check whether your connection with your Luna is still there."
Mayonaka Yoru frowned and opened his pajamas, allowing Esther Dawn to inspect his Imprint Crest. Esther Dawn's gentle expression cracked in disbelief as he saw his lover's back was free of any stigma. It was smooth and tidy.
With a pale face, Esther Dawn exclaims, "Why? This is impossible! H-How!? How can the crest disappear!"
"What did you say?!"
Mayonaka Yoru was shocked himself as he helped his lover check whether his Imprint Crest is still on him but when he saw Esther's back, it was as clean as a blank paper.
"It's gone? It is really gone!? What the hell his happening here!?"
