Mystery: The Stars Returner

After the Tarot session, Audrey found an excuse to take Susie, who was lying outside the door, in a carriage to Hastur's home.

Although they are engaged, the two are not living together yet. As for when to get married, Earl Hall asked them to decide by themselves.

"The master is in the study on the second floor."

Azshara came out to greet her. She was talking to Audrey, but her shining eyes kept staring at Susie.

"Susie, play well with Azshara."

Audrey stroked Azshara's little head and handed Azshara to Susie's care.

"I'll take you to the garden for a walk."

Azshara walked in front with great dignity, and Susie followed silently.

Only in front of Susie did Azshara find the joy of being a human being. Compared to a big golden retriever dog, a person can do more things.

Flexible hands are far more than a dog's paws can compare to.

For example, when playing chess, although Susie is very good at reading, it is difficult for her paws to even grab a chess piece, so she can only push it.

It is easy to play in the wrong position in this way of playing chess. Azshara missed it many times and defeated Susie in one go.

On the second floor, Hasta is sorting out his various properties in Backlund, preparing to return to South Wales at any time.

"Miss Sharon, aren't you here today?" Audrey walked into the study and asked seemingly casually.

"She still has some things to deal with in Backlund." Hasta put down the documents he was organizing, got up and came to the sofa, pulled Audrey to sit next to him, and asked, "Did something happen?"

"Mr. Hastur, do you know that the war is about to begin?"

"Yeah. I know."

Audrey, who originally wanted to reveal the latest news to Hasta, felt a little frustrated and said, "When will you know?"

"A few days ago, you know that I have a good relationship with Bernadette of the Pirate Kingdom. It is difficult to hide many of the latest news about the sea from me."

"Is it really just a few days ago?" Audrey's serious tone made Hastur silent for a while.

"Audrey, everyone has their own secrets. I don't want to hide anything from you, but there are some things that are not suitable to be told to you."

Just when Hasta was about to say this, Audrey said, "Everyone has their own little secret, and I do too, so Mr. Hasta doesn't have to feel ashamed because he can't be honest."

Audrey smiled brightly and placed her little hand in Hastur's palm.

"Then let us each keep our own secrets and tell each other frankly when we feel it is appropriate."

"Ah."

Audrey did not stay long. After discussing with Hastur the possible strategic decisions of the top leaders of the Loen Kingdom, she left with Susie under Azshara's reluctant eyes.

"Pack your things and we'll return to South Wales in a few days."

Butler Neil responded and began to prepare to leave Backlund.

In the early morning of January 1, Selos County of the Kingdom of Feneport was completely attacked.

At this time, the senior officials of the Feneport Kingdom, who were still immersed in the lingering warmth of the New Year, received the real news from Selos County and hurriedly began to discuss countermeasures.

At eight o'clock in the evening on January 1, Backlund and the Loen royal family, who had also received the news, summoned several nobles into the palace to discuss the matter, and Hastur was one of them.

"I can only ensure that South Wales will not suffer any losses." Hasta made his own guarantee, which made the Loen royal family breathe a sigh of relief.

They were really afraid that the young Earl Campbell would give up his choice at such a critical moment.

In order to allow Hastur to manage the entire Southwell County with good authority, the royal family of Loen appointed Hastur as the Grand Duke of Southwell.

Hastur initially refused this unknown position, which had killed three archdukes, but when he thought that this unknown situation was caused by himself, he did not refuse.

At the end of the meeting, the Loen royal family allocated another 50 gold pounds for military expenditures from the treasury to Hastur, asking him to upgrade his military equipment and ensure that South Wales was defended.

As for the support for the Kingdom of Feneport, it was not mentioned at all at the meeting. The so-called lip death and tooth coldness were just lip's wishful thinking.

The day after the meeting, Hastur went to South Wales. He asked Butler Neil and others to take the steam train, and he took Sharon and Azshara through the travel portal directly to South Wales, so as not to waste time. .

Audrey chose to stay in Backlund and did not follow to South Wales.

Earl Hall regretted that he should have completed the engagement ceremony and the wedding together.

On January 1, the army from the southern continent took Selos County as its stronghold. A steady stream of troops crossed the sea and arrived in Selos County. Then they divided into three groups and began an all-out attack on the Kingdom of Feneport.

On January 1, the king of the Kingdom of Feneport was suddenly assassinated while delivering a mobilization speech and died of serious injuries.

On January 1, the terrorist organization Aurora claimed responsibility for the assassination of the King of Feneport.

On January 1, the turbulent Kingdom of Feneport was still unable to organize an effective counterattack, and fortresses in various places were breached one after another.

On January 1, the Kingdom of Feneport sent envoys to the Kingdoms of Lemburg, Sehgal, Masi, and Loen to seek military assistance.

On February 2st, in South Wales, inside the family castle, Hastur was briefly enjoying the world of two people with Sharon.

After he got engaged to Audrey, Sharon hid away on the pretext that she had to deal with temperance affairs. Until she came to South Wales, she had nowhere to hide.

At night, Hastur fell asleep early in Sharon's room and entered the palace of stars.

Tonight's gathering of stars, with the addition of the Goddess of the Night and the True Creator, two gods from within the original barrier, will definitely be more interesting than previous gatherings of stars.

Hastur can already imagine the shocked looks from the old days from the Djinn, the Mother Tree of Desire and other outer gods.

He sat quietly in his seat, thinking about possible situations that might arise tonight and related countermeasures to prevent the meeting from getting out of hand.

After finishing thinking, Hastur first scanned the stars where they were located, and then led them one by one to the Hall of Stars.

The first one is the Djinn, followed closely by the Mother Tree of Desire, the Superstar Lord, the High-Dimensional Overlooker, the Original Hunger, the Night Goddess, and the True Creator.

The Mother Tree of Desire and other outer gods who came first looked at the last two members of the Gathering of Stars with a scrutinizing gaze.

One is an inverted black cross, and the other is a mature, elegant woman wearing a complicated black dress whose face is difficult to see clearly.

The djinn, who knew all the hidden existences within the original barrier, had a strange look in his eyes and said solemnly: "The true creator and the goddess of the night."

The Mother Tree of Desire also recognized the goddess of the night. Part of the authority of the Crimson Moon was in the hands of the goddess of the night. Later, the goddess of the night made a deal with the Mother Goddess of the Earth.

During those years, he, the Fallen Mother Goddess, and the Night Goddess competed for the authority of the Crimson Moon. Naturally, he could not forget such a familiar atmosphere.

The gaze of the high-dimensional overlooker mainly fell on the true Creator. He traveled back and forth to the land abandoned by God several times, but he never met the true Creator.

The other party obviously avoided seeing him on purpose.

The scene was silent for a while, and after sizing each other up, Hastur casually introduced the True Creator and the Night Goddess to the Mother Tree of Desire and other outer gods.

"This is a great opportunity for communication. I believe you will have a great time chatting."

Hastur leaned back slightly and looked at the back of the chair, waiting for the exchange between them.

With the Djinn around, it would be difficult for both of them to remain silent.

"I didn't expect that you two would be the new members. It seems that you also feel that the end is coming and everything is irreversible." The genie took the lead to break the silence.

"No one is sure what the outcome will be until the last moment." The goddess of the night responded calmly, not feeling frightened by the foreign gods in front of her.

"Are you planning to defect to our camp?" Mother Tree of Desire asked directly.

"Do you need it?" The goddess of the night glanced at them, "You are outside the barrier, and we are inside the barrier. We have far more initiative than you."

"It is you who are asking for something from us, not us who is begging for you." The True Creator also spoke at the right time.

"You can't open the seal left by the Lord of Mysteries. You can only look at the treasure mountain and sigh, and you can't go any further." The Super Star Master said indifferently.

"What if the Lord of Mysteries is awakening?"

The goddess of the night dropped an important bomb very casually.

The eyes of the foreign gods such as the Mother Tree of Desire and the Super Star Master all brightened up, but only the Djinn God felt particularly uncomfortable and unhappy.

He has not yet gotten rid of the seal of the wishing lamp and returned to the starry sky. Once the Lord of Mysteries wakes up early, won't he never have the chance to return to the starry sky?

Damn it, the Djinn cursed in his heart.

"When He awakens, the seal of the Western Continent will naturally shatter, but you are still blocked from the original barrier."

The goddess of the night spoke in a gentle tone, a fact that made them unable to calm down.

This is the real reason why the Mother Tree of Desire and other outer gods have always wanted to penetrate the initial barrier through various means and spread their influence to the real world.

Fight for time.

Fight against other rivals and fight against the awakening of the Lord of Mysteries.
