SCARLETTE'S POINT OF VIEW
It's been a week since that happened.
Everything's back to normal. Even our lives backed to normal. I mean, not all. I'm a demigod already and of course, the new holder of the Hetar sword. I have duties like what Asher has.
Mom and the other goddesses are in Hetarnia. They're maintaining the balance of this world. Dad is also there, too. He's already a soul anyway.
No one knows about the chaos that had happened except for us. And oh, luckily, no humans have died in the said war.
When Asher and I came back here on Earth, I asked Aunt Cecilia if she knows about my Mom's and Dad's true identity, she answered 'no'. She even laughed at me why I asked about it. And yeah, she also called me 'weird'. Oh my, she has no idea!
Back to school. Back to normal daily life. That's my situation right now.
It's weekend! And yes, we'll visit in Hetarnia.
I heard lots of knocks from the door.
"Wait!"
I opened the door. The happy face of Asher welcomed me.
"Let's go?" he asked.
I nodded. "Come inside."
He followed what I said and I locked the door. He raised his hands in air. He created a portal.
"Are you not making me asleep?" I asked.
He shook his head as he smiled. "It's time for you to see the real nowhere."
I raised my left eyebrow which made him laughed. "Nowhere, huh?"
We entered the portal. He held my wrist as we walked through the foggy placed. When we reached the end portal, we got out. We were brought in front of the holy place.
"Hey. Will you teach me how to make a portal?"
"Some other time."

I was sitting at the balcony of my room – enjoying the calmness of the place. I decided to stay here after talking to my Mom about my duties as the new legendary sword holder.
I was watching the souls as they did their jobs. I saw a familiar face – it's Nel. His soul didn't disappear but stayed here because of the good thing he did. Unlike him, the soul of her sister was gone.
I waved at him. He smiled and waved back.
"Thank you," I mouthed.
"Welcome."
The wind brushed my cheeks so, I closed my eyes. But I also opened those when I felt his presence in front of me.
His grey eyes met mine. It made my heart beat fast again.
"You're too close," I said between my breaths.
He leaned closer. I tried to moved my face away but my back was already leaning on the wooden chair. His grey eyes started to drown me again.
"I've already said that I like you, Babe, didn't I?" he whispered.
He looked down on my lips and into my eyes again.
"The chaos had finally ended. Can I start courting you?"
