Chapter 24: Tearing the Skin

After Kareta ran out of the secret room, the maid in charge, Adella, and Noah, the attendant who had returned with the god of darkness, stood at the entrance of the twilight pavilion, and the voices of the three gods quarreling frequently came from the secret room, and the attendants were terrified.

Seeing that Caret finally rushed out of it with tears on her face, Adele didn't care about Noah and chased after the hostess all the way.

"Princess... Wait, Adele—"

Noah looked anxiously in the direction they had run away for a moment, then turned his head back, his footsteps remaining outside the secret room, not daring to move a step.

This dutiful child returned to the dimension immediately after presenting the events in the Dark Temple to Demos in the human world.

As soon as he entered the Dark Temple, he went back to his master.

On the way to the Pavilion with Demos, he explained to Demos in detail the circumstances before and after Carette had followed Cali into the Pavilion.

Now, Noah must stay outside the secret room and wait for his master, the Dark God, to come out before leaving.

Inside the twilight pavilion, Demos's dark face was clouded. The eyes of the night, lit up by the fire of the Athena jewel, were aimed directly at the fearless Cali, and the clear whites of his eyes were covered with thick blood as scarlet as fire.

"Now you're satisfied......"

Demos raised an arm and pointed in the direction of the entrance to the chamber, and asked Cali in a bitter tone.

There was an indignant expression in Kali's bewitching countenance, as if the sky was clear, the clouds were light and the wind was light, as if nothing had happened.

The nameless fire that had been building up in Demos's chest for a long time was finally ignited by the casual look on her face. With the undulating rolling of the dark clouds on his handsome face, the fierce flame finally erupted from his suppressed body~.

"Say—you're satisfied, aren't you—"

Demos glared at Cali and let out an angry roar.

It was as if the detonated explosives had been struck inside and outside the pavilion, and trembled and trembled a few times in the thunderous sound of Demos.

Cali and Demos stared at each other, their amethyst eyes getting deeper and deeper, and a slight smile appeared on their natural beauty, which was then obscured by a layer of mist-like gloom.

Looking ahead, Demos's two black pupils are no longer the gloomy and cold they used to be, and now the source of all the distress and frustration is just the little woman who ran away in a negative mood......

I, I don't want to lose you—

His heart-wrenching outpouring of Karete nearly broke Cali's heart.

She could feel it completely, and behind that emotional and sincere expression, there was a lot of struggle and panic in his heart.

He regarded Kareta as everything, and cherished her more than his own life—

"I have been with you for many years, pouring out my past and present lives for you... Why, that little girl... What has she done for you? Why does she have your love—"

From complaining to roaring, Cali's mood also fluctuated in an instant.

There was a moment of silence –

As time passed silently, Demos gradually withdrew his boiling anger, and his face faded back to his normal state.

"I love Karete, and this love is not mixed with any motives. Even if I didn't have the Athena gem and the seal of the crystal ball, I would love her so much when I met her in this life......"

After Demos finished speaking, he let out another long sigh.

Then, he continued to open his two thin lips and pour out a mournful voice to Cali, the flat, but particularly sharp words that pierced Cali's cold and hard heart.

"Sister, please don't add any more sins to yourself. I really don't want to make it impossible for you and me to maintain a kinship relationship with each other again!"

Trembling in utter shock, Cali's purple eyes lit up with resentment. Then, she slowly walked towards Demos while muttering to herself.

"Who wants... What do you do with your kindred......"

At this moment, her stunning face became stiff and rigid, and her charming smile showed a look more ugly than crying.

Far away, she stopped the mechanical pace in front of Demos.

"Demos, you are not a man who does not understand the amorous feelings, why are you so cruel to me? Is it because my appearance is not beautiful, and you can't bear to look at me? Or is my figure untempting, so that you can't have any desire~?"

Cali's shimmering eyes were flowing with a crystal mist, and the image reflected in the pair of cold eyes warmed by tears was only the handsome face of Demos with a stunned expression.

Kali spoke to him with a trembling voice, full of rare humility and supplication.

"You tell me... What do you need? What else do you want from me? I can give you anything, I can give myself to you, I can sleep with you, come! Come, if you can forget about Carrette—"

Turning from whispering to hysterical shouting, Cali suddenly lunged at Demos like a shrew, grabbing his suit with both hands and pulling it down desperately.

"Cali! you're crazy—"

Demos stepped back, trying to push her away. She slammed into his arms, and a pair of iron hands tore at the collar of his shirt.

To this day, Demos resents his indecision.

Maybe he shouldn't have been indebted to this cruel and vicious goddess, and if he had intervened to restrain her earlier, he and Kareta would not have fallen into the embarrassing situation that is difficult to recover today.

However, it is too late to say anything now-

Demos finally waved his arm away, pushing Cali's tangled body out of his arms.

Cali fell to the stone pillar a few meters away, his eyes full of helplessness and sadness.

"You...... Do you really want to love me so much? But I, all along... The love for you is so strong......"

The beauty of the sexy and delicate red~ lips moved slightly sideways, and Cali let out a bleak wry smile at Demos.

Filled with horror in his heart, Demos breathed rapidly and nervously, and the two sturdy and toned pectoral muscles hidden under the slim shirt rose and fell, and it was difficult to stand still for a long time.

Looking at Cali, Demos's pair of eyes were like the vast starry sky, and the color of deception overflowed from those deep eyes.

"You say you love me?"

He was full of ridicule, frivolity and disdain.

"Sister, all you love is a man who can hold the whole world in front of you! Absolutely, it's not me-"

Demos easily squirmed his thin lips and poured out the most callous words.

Then he glanced at a stunned Cali, her desperate look finally calming the raging anger that had swelled in his heart.

Trimming his shirt, Demos turned.

The overall situation has torn his face, and he will definitely not live in the dimensional again.

"Demos! wait—"

Cali sat down on the icy stone floor and screamed, stopping him abruptly just as he was about to ascend a flight of steps.

"If you leave the Dark Temple... I... Guaranteed to make you regret it forever!"

All the means could not save Demos's heart, and Cali returned to his former strength. After her voice was said in a low voice, her cold and venomous eyes fixed on Demos's back for a long time.

However, he finally let her down again.

His back was silent for only two seconds, and then he hurried up the stairs without hesitation and walked out of the secret room of the Twilight Pavilion.

At the entrance, he shouted:

"Noah, let's go, take Carreta back to the human realm—"

——

A long time has passed, as if it is a lifetime away......

Cali came back from the silence and slowly straightened up with one hand, holding the tall marble pillar carved in the Dolly style next to him.

What you love is just a man who can hold the whole world in front of you-

The hollow brain reverberated with the voice of Demos's righteous indignation, like the ringing of an alarm bell, and the heavy knock alerted Cali's decaying heart.

It turns out, Demos, that I am so unbearable in your mind, and that my dedication to you and to the Dark Clan is meaningless—

The heart wept blood, turning into a string of tears that hung resolutely on Cali's clear cheeks.

She wiped her face with her own hands, and turned her waist around the willow waist covered in dust, and left the pavilion abruptly.

At the stone gate, the black-clothed guards quickly lowered their heads when they saw her, not daring to look directly at her hideous appearance.

Although they didn't see everything that happened just now, they could really hear the conversation between the gods, so no one dared to touch the mold at this time, and easily provoked the goddess of blood who was spilling on the fire and had nowhere to vent!

Cali turned his head with a blank expression, his eyes lazy as he watched the guards on either side look of fear and avoidance.

Illuminated by the candlelight, her long, thick black wavy hair cast an even more distorted image on the dimly lit temple walls, resembling a monster with ferocious minions.

Two abusive flashes flashed in his clear purple eyes, and Cali's smile became even more enchanting in the face of the black-clothed guards......

Demos walked out of the secret room and rushed to the second floor of the temple with Noah, where he was confronted by the lady-in-waiting, Ade, who had turned back the same way.

Seeing her exposed panicked expression, Demos immediately had a premonition that Carret's situation was not good.

"The princess has left the temple, she opened the passage of the dimension and ran away, what should we do?"

Adele stood in front of Demos and Noah and cried.

Carette ran out of the twilight pavilion, the girl following closely behind her.

I thought that the hostess would go back to her bedroom, and she was organizing words in her heart to comfort and persuade her in the bedroom. Unexpectedly, she ran directly out of the door of the Dark Temple, and then raised her hand to gather the source of divine power to decisively open the passage from the dimension to the human world, and then hid at the other end of the passage.

Adele didn't dare to go with the hostess, so she had to return to the temple and return the same way to find the dark god of the male master, just as Demos met him with anger on his face.

Demos could imagine how Carreta would react sensitively and violently with her small and lofty heart when she learned the secret of her connection to the gem, but she didn't expect that she would leave the dimension alone in an instant.

In desperation, Demos closed his eyes dullly and thought to himself for a moment.

The reason why Caret had an overreaction was that Demos was sure that Cali was the one who was in the way, and in addition to telling her the secret of the crystal ball seal, he must have also made up other lies that were not there, so that Kareta could misunderstand him.

O woman, why does a feminine and delicate body become fearless and powerful in an instant, once tainted with the slightest jealousy, and finally evolve into an evil and monstrous beast?

Thinking of the reincarnation of Medea who killed the Carmenian family before, and the many innocent lives who died by her involvement on the "Opal" cruise ship, the hot beating heart in Demos's chest turned cold.

Reopening his eyes, he commanded the male and female attendants beside him:

"Ade, you continue to stay in the temple. Noah, let's go back to the human realm and go find Karete!"
