Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Hundred Years ago
Seojun felt a strange force pull him away from them, and the scene changed. He was now in a dark forest at night, where he saw a girl running in fear. Her clothes(Hanbok) were torn and she was desperate to escape. But her attempt to flee was cut short when she tripped and was captured by unseen figures. She was taken to a grand tent, where something terrible happened to her.
Hours later, she emerged from the tent, but she was no longer the same. Her clothes were in tatters, and she had a bite mark on her neck. The light in her eyes was gone, replaced by hopelessness. She walked to the edge of a cliff, ready to end her suffering.
Seojun wanted to stop her, but something held him back. Just as the girl was about to jump, Echidna appeared beside her.
"The Mother of Monsters Goddess placed a gentle hand on the girl\'s shoulder and spoke softly. The girl\'s despair began to lift, and instead of jumping, she allowed Echidna to wrap her tail around her in a protective embrace. Echidna had saved the girl, offering her a new path where she would be cared for.
She took the mortal girl away from her family that gave her to the king and fate of becoming the king\'s concubine, even after she was touch without her consent. The girl, shattered and broken, found solace in Echidna\'s embrace, treating the Mother of Monsters as her own family, the only family she had left."
Seojun\'s surroundings blurred again, and he found himself in the presence of Echidna and Typhon.
Seojun saw flashes of chaos as monstrous beings rampaged across the earth seeing the old houses it seems that this is from hundred years ago leaving destruction in their wake. Echidna, despite her reservations, stood by Typhon\'s side.
Typhon, Echidna Husband in his true form, was a massive dragon with black, obsidian-like scales that absorbed all light. His golden eyes burned with ancient knowledge, and his vast wings could blot out the sky. When he took human form, he was tall and imposing, with dark, metallic skin and piercing golden eyes that hinted at the powerful dragon within.
blinded by her love for him. But the more Typhon pushed for power, the more Echidna began to see the darkness that consumed him.
"Blinded by love and loyalty, Echidna agreed to Typhon\'s plan, even though she knew it was dangerous. But soon, she saw the truth -Typhon wasn\'t just seeking power; he wanted to destroy everything, even if it meant risking their children\'s lives."
In a sudden twist, Seojun saw Typhon turn against Echidna, his eyes blazing with madness. His once loving gaze now held nothing but contempt and a thirst for power. Echidna, realizing her mistake, tried to stop him, but it was too late.
"Horrified, Echidna tried to stop him, but Typhon saw this as a betrayal. Enraged, he turned against her, seeking to steal her power.
In the end, Typhon\'s madness led to his downfall. The gods, led by Zeus, defeated him and imprisoned him deep within the Earth, transforming him into the cursed Book. This book held all of Typhon\'s power and chaos, now trapped within its pages. It was a dangerous artifact, capable of granting immense power but also bringing ruin."
Seo-jun brow frowned, \'That book. Isn\'t that the system former appearance? What is this all about?\'
"Heartbroken, Echidna couldn\'t destroy the book. Instead, she gave it to the mortal girl she had saved. This girl, betrayed by her own family and mistreated by the king, accepted the book, filled with a desire for revenge.
And the gods were still angry with Echidna and sent Argus Panoptes, a giant with a hundred eyes, to kill her. Echidna was strong but couldn\'t defeat Argus and was ultimately killed. However, her soul was reborn in a new body, worshipped as a goddess by those who found her.
The mortal girl, after learning that Echidna had been killed, was filled with anger and grief. She vowed to kill the gods who she believed were responsible. In her rage, she first turned against her own family, killing them without hesitation. With the cursed power of the Book, she was ready to lead humanity to extinction.
But as she was about to destroy everything, she realized she was carrying a child, the result of the king\'s cruelty. This realization stopped her madness. The Book, now full of her pain and power, became a powerful heirloom, passed down through her family for generations."
Suddenly, He felt a sudden pull and found himself standing in a calm, blue sea, its gentle waves lapping at his feet. The sky above was clear, a brilliant blue that stretched endlessly, with the sun shining brightly overhead. The air was warm and peaceful, a stark contrast to the eerie darkness he had expected.
As he looked around, a soft breeze carried a familiar presence. He looked up and saw a radiant figure descending from the sky, her silver hair shimmering in the sunlight like liquid silver, and her deep violet eyes filled with ancient wisdom.
"Zyraena," he whispered recognizing her immediately.
She was stunning, with silver hair that flowed like water, and her clothes shimmered in shades of blue and gold. She radiated a powerful yet calming energy that put Seojun at ease, despite the confusion swirling in his mind.
"What is it that I witnessed?" Seojun asked, his voice filled with a mix of awe and curiosity.
As Seojun stood in the calm blue sea, feeling the warmth of the sun on his skin, he watched as Goddess Zyraena raised her hand. With a graceful snap of her fingers, the scenery around them began to change. The peaceful ocean and clear sky melted away, replaced by an ornate chamber filled with golden light.
In the center of the room, a plush, ornate sofa appeared, its cushions invitingly soft and luxurious.
