27: expected the unexpected!

Before we start, let your narrator help you understand where this ice beam was shot. Let's go back in time and focus on Aoi for a while…

Aoi, who was fighting Winter's daughter Lumi Lunaria, sneered, "You're strong, but still no match for me, hahahaha!" she let out a haughty chuckle. Aoi, already cornered, could only think, What the hell is wrong with her? Is she really half-sister of Void? If that's true, I'm going to have a hard time!

"I'm way stronger than Zoe! And cute at the same time, you know!" Lumi bragged, her snow-like white and silk-like hair locked in double buns, dressed in white gothic attire.

As Aoi struggled to move any longer, she closed her eyes in resignation. Just then, Void used his "Freezing Edge," and the impact and sonic wave came with a strong wind passing Aoi and Lumi.

"You may be stronger than Zoe, but not stronger than my love! Hehe…!" Aoi let out a satisfied chuckle. "My love is already on a different level!" Aoi's words brought sweat to Lumi's smiling face. Lumi clenched her fist, digging her nails in and gritting her teeth. "Shut up! Now see how I'll blow your love away with Zoe!"

"Cryo Explosion!" Lumi created a giant ball of ice directed towards Void and Zoe, similar to Void's "Chillerz" move, gathering every mana as it approached them.

Now that you have a perfect explanation from the narrator, let's get back to where we stopped and yeah make sure to comment og narrator bye!… {*note:-don't mind the narrator}

Void and Zoe were about to get hit by a giant ice ball devouring everything in its path. "Ahh! This is bad. I've very little mana left because of the intense combat with Zoe. I've yet to fight with the real boss!" Void murmured to himself.

"Miss Zoe, may I ask why the hell are you clinging to my leg?" Void yelled. Zoe, lost in her world, replied, "A bit more, Mr. Void…"

"What do you mean 'a bit more'? There's a giant ice ball approaching us!" Void yelled again. Realizing it was of no use, he chanted, "Frozen Barricade!"

A huge and thick ice wall formed, and as the ice ball hit the wall, its size decreased. "This is my chance! Chillerz!" The ball shattered, and the mana gathered on Void's katana's edge.

"You really were going to attack your own sister! Take this, you idiot!" Void shouted while casting "Cryo Explosion!" A giant ice ball, larger than Lumi's, was created and shot towards her with tremendous speed.

"It's impossible…" Lumi muttered, shocked and terrified at seeing Void reflect her attack. "It took me years to master this... How... What in the world are you…?" Lumi said, but before she could react, she was hit by the ice ball.

"Now can you tell me whether you're an enemy or an ally..?" Void asked Zoe while freeing his leg from her grip. Zoe stood up, fixing her half-torn attire, which exposed a bit of her ample bosom and belly.

"I'm your wife!" Zoe declared, changing her dress with her magic while buttoning Void's shirt, leaving only two buttons near the collar undone.

"What? Are you in your right mind? I already have a fiancée!" Void said in an annoyed tone.

"Who cares? A fiancée can be changed! I am your soulmate, even if you marry your fiancée! I am okay with being second!" Zoe insisted, moving closer to Void until there was very little distance between them.

"What, a harem?" Void muttered, his face red as he imagined himself with both women in front of a church while people congratulated them.

"Yeah, a reverse harem! Not technically, but who cares! Yeah, but I won't allow her in my chamber!" Zoe said. "We dragons believe in equality and have a rule to marry our soulmate. Even if he has one or two wives, we don't care! He is selected from heaven by the dragon god! Understood?"

"What the heck... Me... What should I do now? Will Aoi accept me for this? Is she even interested in me? Wait, I'm in a battle right now. Focus, Void! Focus!" Void thought to himself. Snapping out of it, he said,

"Let's see, there are many people whom I have to explain this to. Moreover, I still have to know whether my fiancée is interested in me or not!" Void said to Zoe while walking and beating enemies along the way.

"I see, so I have a chance to make you all mine. Well, I'm happy enough that you don't hate me! Haha!" Zoe murmured to herself.

"Did you say anything..?" Void asked, having heard her but not catching her words clearly.

"Nope, let's fight together," Zoe said, her tone softening. "Honey!" she added, teasing Void.

"Shut up! And there's Arcane and Cassey who need you more, while I handle this idiot sister of yours!" Void said.

"Wait, are you still unaware of why we are fighting?" Zoe asked, stopping midway.

"Nope, I just know that we are fighting!" Void said with a smile.

"What? He just got into the fight without knowing anything?" Zoe thought to herself. "Do you have no clue why we are attacking? Who's behind your life?" Zoe asked Void, getting serious.

"Who cares? They are trying to hurt people important to me! That's enough for me to fight!"

"Void! Do you know Winter Frost?" Zoe asked, her tone serious, her face darkening as she spoke.

"No, who is he?" Void asked with a warm smile.

"He's your father and one of the strongest ice magic users in history, one of the strongest men in history," Zoe said, tightening her grip on her sword. "Miss Maria's ex-husband, my step-father, your real father!" Zoe revealed, knowing this was not something Void could easily handle.

"What! My father? Even if he's my mother's ex-husband, he's no one to me, as I am adopted," Void dismissed the thought, starting to walk again.

"No, you are Miss Maria's child! Winter's son, whom he tried to kidnap and take away using those two people who abused you back then! You're Miss Maria's real son! And Winter's child!" Zoe said, trying to stop him.
