Chapter 501: Spying On Me?
"Can you two believe it if I said I went to save a beautiful world?" Viktor said as his eyes briefly wandered, thinking about Seraphina and her huge breasts that were as soft as marshmallows.
"What's with that lewd look on your face? I doubt you were gone for so long to do anything noble like saving an alien world to which you had no ties to. Or did you do it so that you could do 'that' with the Siren Queen?" Taya asked with tightening under her eyes.
She and Umilia had got Viktor alone in her office room to make him cough out the truth.
"Hey! Come on," Viktor said with an upright look as he said, "How could you think so low about someone like me? Wait…how do you know who the Siren Queen is? When did you even learn about alien worlds and stuff?"
Taya's face stiffened up as she remembered the projection Maura showed them. If she told Viktor about this, it would seem like they spied on him, even though that was not the case.
Viktor pulled together his brows seeing how Taya was suddenly showing suspicious behavior, and then looked at the silent Umilia, who turned her head away with a red face.
"I knew it…You two haven't been staying still like good girls all this time, right? Were you two using your connections to spy on me? The only way I could think of is Nyissa since her mother is an oracle. Is she in this too?" Viktor asked as he suddenly connected all the dots.
Taya's brows twitched as she raised her hand to stop him from talking further, "No, you can't turn this around on us. You were the one who disappeared without saying a word. Do you have any idea how worried we were? Even if you can't die, it doesn't mean we would feel okay by not knowing where you are or if you are in a bad situation. And just to make things clear, we weren't spying on you. We asked Senior Maura's help to divine your location just to set our hearts at ease and see if you needed any help considering how Talia kidnapped you. We still don't know why you let her. Is she really more powerful than you? Did she do anything bad to you?" Taya was throwing questions one after the other while Umilia eagerly listened.
She didn't have to say anything since Taya was asking for everything she wanted as well. But it did seem Taya was going harder on Viktor than expected.
Viktor sighed as he understood how worried they were and that it was natural they would try their best to figure out where he was.
"Let me explain what really happened so that you guys don't have to feel worried…" Viktor told the two everything that happened since the moment Talia pulled him into the Sacred Spirit Realm and what happened after.
Both Taya and Umilia had their expressions going from confusion to shock and awe. They couldn't believe that within a few weeks, their lover, who was relaxing in their home, had made friends with mythical fairies and sirens and even fought a dragon.
Taya actually felt like she was listening to some fairy tale and couldn't even imagine what kind of experience Viktor had.
Umilia was also new to all this since she had never really left Earth other than being stuck in the Naraka realm for two thousand years. The best she had heard of was stories and tales. And even now, some of them were hazy to her.
Taya felt terrified by just imagining Viktor fighting a huge dragon. She had never seen one for real, but she had seen in movies how frightening they could be.
She was glad Viktor managed to scare it off, though she had no idea Viktor didn't tell her the truth about the Blade of Hatred to not make her worry.
Still, Mevron's underhanded way of suddenly stabbing him with that vicious blade left a bad taste in him, and Viktor wanted revenge. Because of this, he was determined to get stronger and one day make Mevron end up under his feet while asking him about his wife. That should do him good.
"I am sorry…for doubting you. I had no idea you went through so much for people you didn't even know," Taya said as she gave him a warm hug.
Umilia's lips arched into a bright smile as she said, "I am glad you got to save them in the end. I had heard how the Sacred Spirit Realm was considered an endangered realm and how bringing harm to that realm would end in a death sentence. I can't believe those evil people tried to put the entire realm into danger."
Viktor shook his head with a smile as he said, "I didn't really save them. It was actually their Spirit Guardian that saved them, though nobody saw him come or go. I wonder how powerful that guy is for him to fix things so easily."
"The Spirit Guardian? No wonder…" Umilia mumbled with a glazed look.
"Who is that? Is he some sort of guardian for the fairies?" Taya asked curiously.
"He is their deity…they say and powerful as a god," Viktor said while thanking this guardian inwardly for saving Seraphina and her people. Viktor thought gods never existed even if Nyissa mentioned the Guardian Gods. He thought they were just something people made up to put their faith in. But he had just witnessed how the Spirit Guardian was really looking after the Sacred Spirit Realm and felt that he was quite a cool deity to pray to.
But he had no idea the moment he thanked the Spirit Guardian in his mind countless miles away, Azreus's eyes briefly focused before becoming still again.
"And there is also something I want to add…" Viktor said with a shaky smile.
Taya furrowed her brows, feeling that something was suspicious based on his goofy smile. Still, she asked with a smile, "What else is there?"
Viktor closed his eyes as he said with a pleasant smile, "The Fairy Queen is my woman now…Ow!"
The moment he said it, Taya suddenly tightened her grip around his body, making him wince, while Umilia placed her hand on her mouth with a look of disbelief.
