Chapter 231 Eyes?
"Huh!" Joe Kassandra, the Chieftess, exclaimed in surprise as she was never expecting this.
"Yep, we're from another world, perhaps so far from this one." Jo Moriah added.
A realization suddenly dawned on her, and she stood up, exclaiming, "That must be it… You are the secret envoys of our Great God, Lucifer!"
"Envoys of Great God Lucifer?!" Jeremy Bradford exclaimed in bewilderment.
While the always languid Jo Mariah said calmly, "Chieftess Kassandra, perhaps you must be mistaken for someone. And I'm afraid to break this piece of news to you; we are not anyone's envoys. We have drifted to this place while passing through an unknown wormhole… Great God Lucifer, we have never heard of such god, but we have heard of the Great devil Lucifer in our old legends on earth."
"Come on. Just follow me. Let me show you something." Joe Kassandra, the Chieftess, said with no care for their words and sauntered toward the inner region of the gigantic mansion.
Jo Moriah and Jeremy Bradford were also curious, so they followed her.
After a few minutes, they were inside a hall filled with various hand curve designs of men and gods on the four walls.
"Look, this is our Great God Lucifer." Joe Kassandra, the Chieftess, said, pointing at the messily drawn figure of men.
They saw a man with three eyes with seven rings in each of the eyes.
On seeing that, Jo Moriah seemed to realize of something as he took out a pitch-black dark eyeball with a single ring and began comparing the eyes.
Joe Kassandra saw it and she knelt over the floor and greeted, "Greetings, my lord!"
Both the men glanced at the lady Kassandra with an incredulous look and then Jo Moriah put the eye inside his secret pocket and asked, "I know the owner of one of these eyes*. Now, can you tell me? What is the story behind this picture on the walls?"
"Eyes?!" Lady Kassandra said with a big question mark as she stood up.
"Yep, actually, I found an eye with seven rings exactly like those in the picture of your Great god on the wall in a forbidden place of my Titan's Might Region." Jo Moriah responded and then he craned his head to Jeremy and further added, "I've already told you about that strange wolf-like the alien beast that has entered our region and now currently killing all the intelligent lifeforms in several galaxies."
Jeremy Bradford nodded his head in agreement.
Jo Moriah continued, explaining: "Yes because I took that strange pitch-black eye with seven rings from a forbidden temple and opened a cosmic gateway that allowed the outsider to infiltrate our region and destroy several areas of our region. So, this eye was sealing our region from outsiders…. In the aftermath of my wife's illness, I sought a way to get her out of her comatose state. In the days following my discovery of the eye's power to manipulate time, I contemplated changing my wife's past before she was poisoned by that substance. Therefore, in exchange for my many years and years of thinking long and hard about her baby inside her womb, I activated the eye using my 50,000 years of life. But, beyond my expectation, I was instead teleported to earth along with my wife which was hibernating in a thick cube of ice."
He then further added, "That's when I met your big brother, Gregory Darhk. And the eyeball in my hand reacted strongly with the eyeball on his hand. We tried to stop those eyes, but they even froze us in time lock and merged into this eye with a single ring. In the next few weeks, we had a fierce fight for that eye and came out with no winners, and finally, we exhausted ourselves and laid down. Your big brother threw a bottle of wine at me after he had a mouthful and explained to me that the eye belonged to his son and would one day return to him. And I also told him my reason for needing the eye which was to wake up my wife. Within a few months, we became close friends and he suggested keeping the eye on me and returned to him afterward when I'm done waking up my wife. Luckily several centuries later, I managed to remove my small daughter from her womb safely but still failed to wake her up."
? As Jo Moriah ended his story, he took a deep breath, turned to Joe Kassandra, the Chieftess, and asked, "Now, tell me your part of the story linking to this eye?"
Joe Kassandra responded, explaining in a calm tone: "Alright, I'll tell this story briefly. Our Great God Lucifer was once a venerable, kind god in the Ten Heaven Realm. But because of some unknown reason, our lord suddenly changed his behavior and went rogue, causing destruction and chaos everywhere he went. So, after a meeting among all the higher gods, they had made a decision to denounce our Lord from being a Great God into a Derange evil god and all of his subordinates including our tribe were also sentenced to kill on sight. But fortunately, my grandma predicted this and managed to leave that place and bring our small tribe over here in this Flawless Domain, hiding from those God and their subordinates spreading to nooks and corners of the Universe."
Then she further added, "My Grandma put my mother in charge of the tribe, and then she cast a forbidden spell to peek in the future regarding our Lord Lucifer while sacrificing all of her life. She drew all these pictures and blathered about the envoys from there coming here to my mother and took her last breath. And during her eleventh hour, she also repeatedly mentioned that our lord had reincarnated into a human body and one day, he will bring us back to the former glory and that time it should be when our enemies will run away from us."
And she asked with bright eyes, "Can you please tell me whether you know about my newly reincarnated lord?"
"Hee-hee-hee, now I totally get it." Jo Moriah chuckled, and he continued while bolstering the big man. "He knows about the baby better than I do. It's because he is the one who raised him up from just a baby until his adulthood."
