Chapter 73: Love can't betray
Sinex clenched her fist.
"Sinex! I'm glad to see you're alright!"
Zex spread his arms apart as he approached her, ready to give her a hug.
Bang!
Sinex suddenly punched him in the face, his body falling butt first to the ground.
Zex sat there for a while, his eyes widened as he touched his cheeks.
"Sigh! Why the hell are you here?" Sinex spoke, staring down at him with her arms folded.
Zex looked at her, perplexed but calm, "The hell you mean why am I here? To get you out obviously!"
He stood up.
"I thought you'd be at the temple now, haven't you reported the situation to Mother?" She asked.
"We can't return to Mother without the traveler, you know this. That's why I came to get you, so we can all do it right this time."
"Yeah no."
"No? Fuck you mean no?" Zex was getting annoyed.
"I mean no, I'm not helping you guys do anything. In the few days I've been here, I've realized how madly obsessed I am with my love, no one is taking him from me, not even Mother." Sinex spoke, her voice calm the whole time.
"Uhnnnnn?! Can you hear yourself?! This is Mother we are talking about? What the hell has gotten over you?!" Zex yelled as he moved closer.
"I already told you, I fell in love, surely you don't expect me to sabotage the man I love? Seeesh, the romance stories Mother tells us must have been flying over your head." Sinex retorted.
'What the hell is wrong with her?! The fuck is she ranting about love? Is she talking about the Traveler? She fell in love with the traveler?!'
Zex grabbed Sinex's arm.
"Come back to your senses, not only will you be disobeying Mother, you'll also be betraying the Cult!"
"Firstly, do not touch me, I don't want my love thinking I'm some kinda slut."
Sinex yanked her hands from his grip before she continued,
"Secondly, I love you guys, I'm not betraying anyone, that's why I want you all to leave me here, I've found where I can finally be happy. I'll try my possible best to make my man not attack anyone from the Red wings. But I can't promise anything, although-"
She placed her finger on her chin, "If you pledge your allegiance to him, I'm sure he'll overlook the whole kidnapping scenario."
"No no no, something is definitely wrong, you're not speaking like the Sinex I know, have you forgotten all we've been through? You can't be serious." Zex voiced out, gesturing his frustration.
"But I am," Sinex placed her arms behind her, her face beaming, "I'm addicted to this man, I can't think of anything other than him, don't you see? I finally have what I've always wanted."
She sighed, placing her hand on Zex's shoulder, "I care about you guys, why do you think I snuck out to meet you? But I beg you to not do anything stupid against my love, I'll be forced to make a difficult choice, and I don't wanna".
"W—hat the hell?..."
"You should hurry up and leave though, the maid girl will come looking for me if I don't show up. Tell Mother, the Traveler doesn't want conflict, he's willing to talk things through".

"Hold on…"
"Mother will probably listen if she knows the Traveler wants to speak to her, anything after that depends on the events that play out, I'll try to make it clear…"
"Shut up!" Zex grabbed her by the hair and pulled her close, "Where do you get off speaking to me like I'm a goddamn child!"
Sinex laughed.
"Come on, you know how this ends, take deep breaths Zex."
Zex grumbled a bit, he knew if Sinex wanted, she would kill him ten times over, but the rage he felt at the moment, the rage of betrayal, was too much for him to just let go.
"Zex darling…let go off my hair, I don't want my love smelling you on me, come on".
"Shut up about this love bullshit already! It's fucking annoying! I'll freaking help you get back to your senses! I'll beat the living shit out of you!"
He clenched his fist, ready to hit Sinex on the face.
But just as his hand was about to connect, Sinex positioned her hand in front of Zex dick— and flicked her finger hand on the tip.
Zex immediately stepped back, both his hand holding his pulsing dick, tears running down his cheeks as he fell to his knees.
"Remember what I told you, don't be foolish enough to think you can do something, don't play the hero Zex. I'll be going now."
Senix walked away.
Meanwhile all Zex could do was kneel there, the pain on his dick still itching.

[Accessing the Knowledge of the gods.]
[ Ishtar, the goddess of Discord and harvest, once one of the Five Power Gods who ruled the heavens, was feared for her control over chaos and discord. Revered and powerful, she could bend fate and sow conflict among gods and mortals alike.
But something happened—a betrayal among the gods—that forced Ishtar to flee to the earthly realm. Stripped of much of her power, she established her rule over the mighty nation, Unakel, building factions and armies, causing upheaval wherever she went.
Then, suddenly, she vanished.
No one knew where she went or why. Some believed she was killed, others said she was lying in wait, plotting her return to power. Her disappearance remained a mystery, leaving her story unfinished.]
Ha Joon stared at the information in front of him.
He was inside the playground, trying to complete the quests he had with the system, while also trying to learn about the goddess that was supposedly after him.
"So she ruled heaven? Meaning she's no small god then."
[Correct.]
[Amongst the four god ranks, she is amongst the highest.]
'Yeah, I remember Merlin telling me something about god ranks, Rankless level, low level, mid level and high level. If she's a top rank, it means she must be a high level god.'
Ha Joon sighed.
'Question is, why the hell is a powerful god trying to kill me?'.
