Myth: The Ruler of Spirituality-Chapter 903 - 366: Magnetic Stone

Chapter 903 -366: Magnetic Stone

“Sigh…”

“Is it finally gone…”

The border where the Underworld meets the Land of Eternal Night was bathed in the pale purple Moon Light, illuminating the gray Earth.

And just a step away in the curtain of night, the young Deity quietly observed everything happening outside.

As one of the Primordial Gods, Nyx, she is the Goddess of the Night and the Master of Concealment.

Under her protective power, no one from the outside could penetrate the secrets within her realm, not even Zeus.

Hence from start to finish, the Divine King never knew that the existence he was searching for was merely an arm’s length away.

With just a reach of his hand, the Divine King could have captured him.

But until the very last moment, he did not take that step.

“As expected… As long as I come here, Zeus would no longer pursue into this place.”

“After all, compared to me, he is less willing to make enemies over a trivial matter with the Ancient Gods who coexist with the world.”

“He already has enough enemies, and he probably couldn’t even guess why I could enter this place.”

“If it’s just because my strength is too weak, then his intrusion would mean unnecessarily inviting huge trouble for himself.”

Muttering to himself, at this very moment, the young Deity’s expression resembled a pitiful child chased to his doorstep by societal figures.

Finally escaping back home, he wore a look of post-disaster relief.

Watching the departing activists through the window, he feels grateful for the ‘parents’ who brought him safety.

“Sigh—”

“After all, it’s all thanks to the supreme divine might of the Mother Goddess, even the current Divine King dares not provoke her.”

“Even if Zeus is usually arrogant and domineering, he wouldn’t dare to cause trouble here.”

“Hmph, it’s only because the Mother Goddess wishes not to involve herself in these matters. Otherwise, the master of all spirits in the present world would not be his place to assume.”

“Under the Eternal Night, whether it’s the stars, the Earth, or the ocean, all should look up to the Mother Goddess first and foremost.”

“…”

His tone was sincere, and his demeanor utterly natural.

To anyone observing, it would only appear as a genuine outpouring of emotions from Hypnos.

However, he stayed on the edge of the Land of Eternal Night for quite a while, until the Three-headed Demon Dog returned to its original spot.

Its two dog heads steadfastly watched the edge of the Land of Eternal Night, as if to fulfill the task entrusted by the Divine King.

Yet, nothing happened near the God of Sleep.

The Land of Eternal Night remains ever so quiet, because the Mother Night is also the sovereign of Silence.

At the very dawn of creation, all clamor dissipates without a trace under the night sky.

“…Well, perhaps Zeus’s guess was right, the Mother Goddess probably really doesn’t consider me important.”

“I can come here simply because I was born here.”

“Besides that, I have nothing special.”

After a while, realizing that there really won’t be any further changes, Hypnos felt a bit disappointed yet relieved.

For him, no change was quite good.

After all, his only impression of the Goddess of the Night was seeing her once at birth, and she seemed not to care much about him.

Besides that, Hypnos had no further communication with Nyx.

He couldn’t fathom her current attitude and didn’t know what she thought. So, seeing her might as well be avoided.

The only downside was that this probably meant he was temporarily stuck here.

Unlike before, in the Land of Eternal Night, Hypnos’s power could not penetrate the barrier of Eternal Night and lull Cerberus to sleep beyond its perception.

And once he would leave this place, what awaited the God of Sleep would likely be the thunderous measures left by the Divine King.

Hypnos didn’t possess any tokens from Nyx.

So right now, Hypnos could either wait here, hoping the Monarch of Hell would remember him and thereby find a way to save him.

Or he could just continue staying here, waiting for some uncertain chance to arise.

“…”

“…Anyway, better to leave this place first.”

“The Land of Eternal Night is not safe.”

His expression still appeared fond and hopeful, though it had been a long time since he came back, Hypnos still remembered that in this territory of Ancient Gods, there were many quasi-divine beings.

Although they could not threaten the current God of Sleep, be it in terms of strength or other aspects,

Engaging in a major fight in the Land of Eternal Night itself is a foolish act.

So, after one last look at the direction he came from, Hypnos continued walking further inside along the path he remembered.

He didn’t truly understand this place, nor did he know where to avoid the native creatures.

But there was one place that should be relatively safe.

That was where he was born, the plains covered with Somnus Blossoms.

There, the remnants of the Mother Night’s power lingered, causing all lifeforms to instinctively keep away.

Only Hypnos himself, being born there, considered it another homeland.

Buzz—

Around the time when Hypnos was forced into Land of Eternal Night, nearly at the same moment.

In a strange space-time that overlaps and branches off in the southeast of the world but distinctly separated from the present world.

Ever since it fell from beyond the heavens thousands of years ago, it has been wrapped and assimilated by the world’s force.

Laws actively and powerfully functioned on its surface, isolating it from the approach of any creatures.

And without the right moment, even if one knows it’s here, no one could enter inside.
