His Devious Harbinger: How To Tame A Wicked God?

Chapter 231: This attention-seeking god

Adira has been looking for his goddess.

She is nowhere to be seen.

He wonders where she could have gone. His wife doesn't like to leave this world anymore. Haven is a home for all the forbidden creatures. 

Although he has been living here for more than a decade, he hasn't changed into a forbidden god. Somehow, the world isn't affecting him. It might be because he is the eldest primordial god or the supreme one is preventing him from becoming one.

Abyss is a primordial goddess too. After she turned into a forbidden goddess, even time-turn couldn't save her. But it must have been the will of the supreme being. 

Forbidden creatures are mysterious beings. The strangest part is that there are different kinds of forbidden creatures. Dai is also different. 

He doesn't care whether he becomes a forbidden creature or not. 

His wife is interested in bringing the apocalyptic horses to this world. Pestilence often howls at night for his siblings: Conquest, Famine, and Death. 

But Death is the youngest primordial god. Adira doesn't want another primordial god here as Atvi and Chaos had caused enough problems in his life. 

He finds Ari in the garden. She is reading letters while sipping tea. He takes a seat opposite her. 

"What are you reading?" He asks her. How did she get a letter here?

"Ea invited me to her youngest son's birthday party." Ari tells him in a low tone, "He is about Dai's age."

Noras and Ea have two children: Davina and Silas. Davina is a few months younger than Misaki and Misumi. She is already married to Cina's son, Inachus. Davina is a goddess of love, and Inachus is a god of the river. 

Their second child is about Cyran's age. The boy's name is Silas. 

There are other things mentioned in Ea's letter. 

Mahuna and Eshyal are preparing for their ninth honeymoon. Since the weather is too hot because of those two, the rain goddess and the water goddess have started a petition that Eshyal and Mahuna should have sex only during winter.

But those two can't care less about the petition. Those two are always humping like beasts.

Rilyah's sisters have also married. Raya and Riha married Deia's twin sons. Rilyah is marrying Minak, the only son of Mahuna and Eshyal. 

Ari stares at the last few lines. She hasn't expected Rilyah to give up on Ai completely. Though Ai doesn't remember the time before the time-turn, Rilyah still stayed away from him. 

It seems that Qeshaya was traumatic for her. 

After she woke up, she asked for forgiveness from Adira and her. Ari let it go. But Adira wasn't forgiving. Ai also learned about what happened. Rilyah stayed out of their sight, mostly keeping herself hidden behind the clouds sent by the rain goddess. At other times, she would stay in her room. 

She must have realised that a few things can't be restored to the way they were. 

Parisa's words aren't coming true, Ari contemplates in silence. Ai won't get married to Rilyah. Then, who will he marry? 

Why is Ai still single? He should get married already. Should she find a woman for her? 

"I am worried about Ai," Ari says. "Rilyah is marrying Minak."

"That's good." Adira doesn't want that liar girl as his daughter-in-law. He is sure that Ai deserves a better woman. Even Ai was in danger because of Rilyah's lie. "Ai will find someone who deserves him."

"I wonder who she will be." Ari scratches her chin. "Should I look for a bride? I can't think of anyone. The only single goddesses I know are Niela and Atvi."

Adira's face contorts in rage. "Atvi doesn't even have a permanent form."

"Niela is a little older than him." Ari sighs. "He used to call her aunt when he was young."

"Niela wanted to marry me." Adira shakes his head. "I can't imagine her as our daughter-in-law."

"I am so worried about Ai." Ari picks up the next letter. "What will I do when Dai grows up?"

"He is only a child." Adira replies to her, "I am sure that he and Ai will find their brides on their own."

"Our daughters found their husband too soon." Ari complains, "I am already a grandmother."

"You will also become a great-grandmother." Adir laughs. "Lucius' daughters are timekeepers. They are already chasing some time travellers."

"You will be a great-grandfather too." Ari makes a face. "I won't let Ai get married so soon."

"You were worried about his singlehood." Adira smirks at her, "Should we have one more child?"

"If it's the will of the supreme being, we can have another." Ari sighs. The children of the gods usually have a purpose. Cyran is not the child of a god. He is immortal, but he hasn't achieved godhood yet. Neither did Misaki and Misumi. 

But Dai is a forbidden god since birth. He must have an extraordinary destiny. 

Silas might have one too. 

Ari saw Amin only on the day of his naming ceremony. She could see that the child is a reincarnation of Aren. 

Aren had contributed a lot to Iravan; first as a chosen one, and after he gave up the holy fire, he had done anything he could with his ability. It's no wonder that he's reborn as Noras' son. In fact, Noras might have chosen his soul as his son.

However, Silas doesn't remember his past life. He will probably never remember it. 

"Ari, I am curious." Adira can't hold himself back from asking. "How did Ea send a letter from Iravan?"

"There is a postal service between the worlds." Ari chuckles. "A god of messenger contacted me earlier. He wanted to ask if our world could be accessible to the postmen. Since they wouldn't be spending much time here, I permitted them. Even Pestilence wrote a letter to his siblings in the human world."

"He did?" Adira creases his forehead. "I hope he doesn't cause more problems."

"He regrets knowing me." She smirks at him, "I think he's lonely. Maybe I should bring Famine and Conquest here."

Ari had met Conquest one. He seemed like an ordinary child, and his parents also denied her from taking the boy. Maybe Conquest would be fine in the human world since his mother is a forbidden creature. 

"I thought that Pestilence was getting along with Suluk." Adira recalls, "I saw Suluk chasing Pestilence with a sword in his hand."

"They are going along well." Ari snickers. "Too well."

Adira doesn't understand the undertone of her words. "It's best not to bring other worlds' problems to our world."

If more people gather here, it's less attention for him. He even has to compete with his children and grandchildren to get Ari's attention, especially when all of them are here.

"Oh, don't even think about it, Adira." Ari glares at him when she sees him pouting. "Don't turn back into a toddler. I want to raise Dai only. Don't compete with your son."

He cocks his head dejectedly. "You don't hug me. You don't love me."

"This attention-seeking god," Ari grumbles, shaking her head. "After going through so much, you still think that I don't love you."

"But you are busy." Adira's lips tremble. "You still leave the world for days, and when you come back, you return with someone."

Ari's new hobby is to go to different worlds and collect forbidden creatures.

"I have to bring them here." Ari says, "This is a home for anyone who has been abandoned by their worlds."

Not just forbidden creatures, Ari also saves people who need a new home. She usually dumps them in Iravan or another world before she returns to Haven.

"I guess it's going to be lively here." Adira leans back and heaves a sigh. "Next time, take me with you."

"Who will look after Dai then?" Ari notices Dai crawling toward him on the grass. She grins at him as she stands up, "Dai, did you miss your Mother?"

Dai doesn't smile. His eyes widen slightly. Though he doesn't have many expressions, Ari can guess that he is happy to see her. 

"Come to your mother." She sits down on her knees and spreads her arms. "Mother wants a hug."

Adira smiles when he sees this scene. 

Dai hurries toward his mother with shining eyes.

All of a sudden, Ari's face hardens. The smile on Adira's face vanishes. They lunge toward Dai.

A summoning circle appears beneath Dai at the same time. Before the gods could reach him, Dai is swallowed by the summoning circle.

"What just happened?" Ari touches the ground to feel the magic. "Who took our son away?"

"We will find him." Adira inhales the withering magic. "I have the magic's imprint now. We will find that person."

Ari takes a deep breath. Her daughter, Misaki, was kidnapped by Chaos once. Atvi was also involved in that case.

If something happens to Dai and it's one of Atvi's plans, she's going to destroy her this time. 

But Atvi has been missing for a long time.

She glances at Adira, "Adira, tell everyone to look for Dai."

"I will." Adira promises her, "We will find Dai."

But Ari isn't satisfied with that response. Adira was unable to find Misaki. If a primordial god is involved in this, it would be highly difficult to find Dai.
