Chapter 119:"The Moon Goddess's Intervention (+18)"

Five years had passed in the blink of an eye. During these years, much had changed. The most intriguing development was Rhemon's introduction of a unified global government.

Countries crumbled like breadcrumbs, and people scattered and died in droves. Anyone who dared to rebel against the new system met a swift death. It became a choice:– 'join the new regime or perish trying to resist it'.

Tessa and her group tried to rescue as many people as possible, but it was nearly impossible against the ever-growing, brainwashed masses joining Rhemon's cause. These people acted without scrupules all in the name of Rhemon.

At one point, even the infamous SSG group sought Tessa's help. But she had to be realistic—she couldn't yet face Rhemon, not until she inherited her full Sun and Moon Legacy or until Rhemon exhausted his Sand of Lino and lost the Cloak of Restoration—both highly improbable events.

Tessa searched for any literature about returning to her home planet, hoping that if she could return, she could seek help and summon Solaris and Lunara to intervene on behalf of planet Earth or ask them to help her activate her powers. But so far, her attempts had failed. Her only option was to grow stronger here, strong enough to protect people and maybe one day be strong enough to face and defeat Rhemon.

One evening, Tessa sat in the temple, meditating. She was following the writings of an ancient text as she settled in a meditative pose.

She appeared so calm and serene that anyone watching would think she was unburdened. She inhaled deeply, focusing on the Sun and Moon.

By night, she concentrated on the Moon; and by day, she focused on the Sun.

As she breathed, a faint, swirling energy seemed to flow into her nostrils and circulate within her. This meditation was based on an ancient text she had discovered about inheriting her full legacy. She needed absolute focus—any disruption meant starting over from scratch.

As she meditated, a loud plea echoed in her mind: "Moon goddess, please save me...!"

The cry shattered her concentration, causing her to break out in a cold sweat. Someone was calling out to her. Such occurrences had become common over the past couple of months.

Sometimes, during her intense meditation sessions, she would sense people's pleas if they were deeply desperate, pained, or devoted. If their emotions were strong enough, she could locate and save them, no matter the distance.

Over the past month, stories of Tessa and Adrian's heroics spread across the media. Due to their disguises, no one knew who was behind the rescues; they only spoke of the mysterious "Moon Goddess." People shared stories like:

"The Moon Goddess saved me. I was attacked by government officials and thought I was going to die, but I called out, and she appeared."

"My friend Lenny told me a secret before he died—about a powerful figure who appears in times of desperate need. He said, 'Just call on the Moon Goddess sincerely, and she'll come.' So, I tried, and she saved me from a gang of thugs."

"Moon Goddess, wherever you are, thank you for saving me. I don't know who you are, but I'm grateful."

The tales spread from city to city, and soon a worshipping sect rose in her honor. Anyone who spoke against this movement faced social and even physical backlash from these fanatics.

The world had become chaotic. Rhemon held major control, positioning himself as an overlord with followers rising in his support. It was as if there were two deities: those who worshipped Rhemon out of fear or loyalty, and those who would die for the Moon Goddess.

As Tessa meditated, the voice pierced her focus again. She stopped meditating or rather, she couldn't continue, and at that moment she could accurately pinpoint the caller's location. Nyala and Ecdy were already waiting outside, used to this routine of inadvertent rescue.

"Someone is in trouble. Wear your disguise and mask. We must stay hidden from Rhemon and his agents while we work," Tessa instructed, using her moon powers to reconstruct and transform her face to her alter ego—the face she uses during rescues to keep her identity a secret.

Far away, just outside Rhemon City, a young woman was pinned to the ground, her face contorted with pain as a man assaulted her. He raped her violently, with no trace of compassion.

----

The name of the woman in questions was Nelly. She had grown up in this town, loving its people and working diligently. A painter by trade, she made a modest fortune selling her artworks. Beautiful and young, Nelly had many suitors, but she turned them all down.

Among her admirers was Yuri, a man who, despite her rejections, kept pursuing her. Recently, Rhemon's devout followers had stirred up trouble in the city, and Yuri was among them.

On this day, Yuri arrived at Nelly's home with three other boys.

"Hi, Nelly," Yuri greeted.

"Please leave..." Nelly replied. "I don't want any trouble."

"What about my proposal, then?" Yuri asked, moving closer.

"Yuri, please, I don't want trouble…" Nelly sensed a change in his demeanor. His gaze lingered on her body with unsettling intensity. He looked at her curves, her backside had gotten bigger and more lust inducing, he swallowed a lump in his throat as he moved closer.

"Do you believe in Lord Rhemon? He can save the world. If you join him, you'll have everything you need," Yuri continued.

Nelly's anger flared as she remembered the countless lives Rhemon had destroyed. That man had killed millions, some of whom were close to Nelly. "You're nothing but a coward," she spat. "Following a murderer who brings only pain. You're as delusional as he is. And forget about your proposal. I won't marry a heartless pig."

Yuri's expression darkened. The three boys with him exchanged looks. "Should we finish her off?"

"No… I'll handle it. Wait outside," Yuri commanded.

They left without a word. Yuri approached Nelly, his eyes filled with a twisted desire. "If you'd kept quiet, I might have spared you. But you insulted Lord Rhemon, so now you'll face the consequences."

He lunged at her with all his might. Nelly struggled and tried to side step him, but he reached out in time to catch her, making her to lose balance and then after catching Nelly, he slammed her into the ground.

"Noooo" Nelly shouted, trying her best to escape his grasp. Scratching at him and tearing his clothes, but it was futile. Yuri swiftly overpowered her. Half stripping her as she cried out in desperation. From her midriff, to her thighs her genitals were fully exposed, making Yuri even more turned on.

"Moon goddess if you are real please save me... moon goddess save me..." Nelly cried out in desperation as that was all she could trust in.
