Instead, Aerialia fixed her attention on Orion and asked, "If he be not the god whom thou servest, then reveal unto me the name of the god whom thou dost serve."
"His name is Naka," Orion replied without hesitation. He wasn't telling Aerialia this only because it was the truth, but also because this might as well be his best chance to learn about Naka. 142.93.60.102
To know if Aerialia recognized Naka, or not…
To know if Naka was a god who had come from the other world, or …
"Naka? I haven't heard of that name before. Who is Naka? Is he also a god of this world?" Aerialia responded, breaking Orion out of his thoughts.
A deep, tired exhale escaped Orion's lips.
'I shouldn't have expected much,' he thought.
"He's the god that everyone in and outside of this village serves," Orion said.
However, seeing Aerialia's confused expression, he proceeded to explain everything to her, including the village and the Vylkr vines, before she could ask another question. He also used the opportunity to explain the current situation of White Flame and the Prismerion race.
The more Orion spoke, the more Aerialia's expression changed, becoming difficult for Orion to keep track of.
In fact, the colour on Aerialia's face had almost disappeared, making her look almost as white as a sheet.
For a long time, Aerialia couldn't say anything at all. Understandably, even a goddess of her calibre who had fought and killed other gods like herself needed a significant amount of time to accept and digest everything up to this point.
Her body and mind were currently in a state of shock.
Meanwhile, Orion shook his head at her sudden composure, unable to help but wonder how strong Naka was for him to create such a trial and imprison a god in a mountain while also having another guard it.
"I need to go sleep and rest for tomorrow so that you can see everything with your own eyes and understand that I am not lying," Orion said.
Perhaps they might have a proper conversation where he could learn more about Aerialia and the Great War and see if she possessed any knowledge as a god that would be useful in their current world.
Silently, Aerialia nodded and slowly became transparent until she disappeared, transforming into thick whitish dust that slowly vanished into the air.
"I will be awaiting until then," a feminine voice suddenly sounded within his ears, as the crimson tattoo on his arm itched for a moment before it abruptly disappeared.
Although he figured that she might have done it on purpose, Orion didn't bother about what the goddess was thinking and merely went to sleep.
As he walked back into the hut, not forgetting to close the wooden door behind him, Orion immediately returned to his wooden mat to lie down and rest.
Suddenly, a quiet voice sounded beside him, saying, "Is everything alright, Orion?"
Orion felt a hand on his shoulders and immediately turned his head to the side to see Sura's deep brown eyes staring at him with a concerned expression.
"Didn't I tell you to go to sleep?" Orion said as he furrowed his brows.
From what Fifi and Lyra had told him, Orion knew that apart from pushing herself during her training as a warrior, Sura had also joined Fifi and the others in taking care of the women.
So, he also wanted her to get some rest naturally.
Sura shook her head in response, "You didn't look well when you woke up, so how can I go to sleep like that?" she replied.
Orion let out a tired sigh from his lips.
He wrapped his arms around Sura before dragging her closer to him.
After ensuring she was properly lying on his chest, he leaned forward and kissed her forehead.
"Well, I'm okay now, so you can go to sleep," he said, staring at her as he brushed her hair with a warm smile on his lips.
Sura nodded in understanding, casting one last glance at Orion before closing her eyes and drifting into sleep.
