D.ana just finished treating Seulgi and she cannot believe at the sight in front of her. The goddess of love which was God knows how old is beaming like a kid and tilting her head in a very cute manner every second. A 360 degree flip of her usual flirty character. "Can you stop that? You're twice as annoying as you already are." D.ana exclaimed. "Why are you triggered? It's not even for you. It's for her." Joohyun coolly shrugged, pointing at the quiet and still bowing girl wearing a white cloak. She's still flirty alright, the y part excluded. "I'd appreciate if you stop since she's not even sparing a glance on you. My innocent eyes are affected in this horrible view." D.ana said. "Thank you for your approval." Joohyun said, standing up. What she did next startled both D.ana and Seulgi. Joohyun pulled Seulgi by her arm, making her to stand up intentionally. As if it was some kind of movie, the time slowed down and at the moment, Joohyun caught a glimpse of Seulgi's complete face. Seulgi's eyes were wide, unlike Joohyun's that were calm as always. After the contact, it was Joohyun's eyes' turn to widen. It just widened more as she felt warmth radiating from her hand, starting to spread to her arms. Seulgi hid her head more with the help of the hood. "Wha-Wai-Who are you?" Joohyun asked, squinting her eyes, hoping she'll see the girl's face once again. And Seulgi took that as an opportunity as she ran swiftly out of the tent. Both Joohyun and D.ana can barely process what happened. "Wait!..." D.ana ran out as fast as she could, searching her surroundings. "...You're not even well yet." D.ana ran to the forest she had found Seulgi earlier, it was nearer to their tent. She thought things through, the structure in front of the tent is the Great Hall, there was no way the other girl could've entered it as these doors create loud and majestic sounds when opened. The one on the right is a large, open field other gods and demigods used to practice for battling. Obviously, everyone was practicing and if the girl went there, she would be noticed easily as the one who's simply doing anything but battling. Unfortunately, the goddess of the hunt didn't find any trace of the girl. - "D.ana!" Joohyun came from the opposite side D.ana went, the open field. Joohyun was panting and D.ana blinked her eyes twice. "I'm not seeing things right?" D.ana thought. "Did you see her?!" Joohyun frantically asked and that was when D.ana's mouth hang open. "Wh-What's wrong with you?!" D.ana "Did you goddamn see her?!" Joohyun asked again, this time more frustatingly and louder. D.ana looked straight at Joohyun, reading her. "I didn't." With that, Joohyun came running again somewhere that looked like the path to the temples of the other gods. Never did D.ana see Joohyun in that state. Usually, she was calm and she's the type everyone prayed for safety and good luck but here she was, troubled with someone they just met minutes ago. D.ana knew she was something. - A huge warp suddenly appeared in a farm, soon revealing two figures, one with a staff and the other clutching on her arm.

 

 

"You should've used the travelling spell instead!" Seulgi groaned, her treated arm was now again far from becoming treated. "I should've left you there instead!" Joy fired back. Everything was unplanned at that moment. Five minutes ago. Seulgi ran, more like escaped the tent, as fast as she could. She could say luck was on her side as she saw the face of the messenger of the gods, Joy, walking to her direction. It was as if there was an imaginary line that connected both their brains as Joy immediately opened a portal with her caduceus, pushing Seulgi before jumping inside also. "So, where are we?" Seulgi asked, looking around. "Obviously, this is a farm." "I know! I mean, wait, why are we even here? As far as I can remember the location on your portals depends on what you're thinking about." Seulgi said. "Right! I was thinking of chicken." Seulgi sighed. "Take me back to the cave please, Transportation Joy." "Alright, Olympus, we go!" Seulgi hit Joy's arm. - "WENDY!" The said girl almost made a mistake on weaving the fabric on the loom. It was quite long and hard to make, if it was to be damaged, she has to do it from the start again. "WHAT IN THE WORLD JOOHYUN" Joohyun just ignored Wendy's scowl. "Pause that one if you don't wanna restart. Come here a bit Wisdom Fairy." "You know I'm not enjoying the names you give me, right?" Wendy said as she sat on the chair in front of Joohyun, leaving her loom unattended. "I don't." Joohyun nonchalantly said. "Here's the thing, can you tell me which god, particularly a goddess, has a power of fire?" "Why the sudden question?" "Just answer the question!" Joohyun shouted. "Particularly a goddess, it's Hephaestus." Wendy replied. "Why'd you ask?" Joohyun once again ignored Wendy and asked another question. "What's her physical features?" "No one exactly knew what she looked like but rumors spread she's ugly." "Rumors? How come I haven't heard of her?" "Excuse me, Miss Baephrodite, you're so into love you didn't even notice she's the one who crafts our weaponry." Joohyun just continued to blankly look at Wendy. So Wendy continued, "As I said she's the goddess of fire. She's also the goddess of craftsmen, metalworking, and blacksmiths so that explains how she supplies our weaponry." "Where is she?" "I don't know! Why are you asking me this?! Do I look like some map to you?" Joohyun just nodded. "Right, thanks Wanie. See you around." Joohyun got out, heading somewhere, in the search for someone that could provide answers to her unanswered questions. Wendy was about to come back in her loom, resuming her weaving when a voice called her. "Athena, come to the grand temple." It was from his father Zeus. Wendy was sure where this would lead to. - "Hephaestus, Kang Seulgi." One of her helpers called out to her, making her look up from the spear she was working on. "What is it, Jongin?" "A letter was left for you." "By wh-" Seulgi didn't bother finishing her question as she saw the thunderbolt symbol sticked on the scroll. - "Hermes! Yah! Joy!" Joy was trying hard to fasten up her pace, not only was she late in delivering messages from the mortal world and to Olympus, she also knew the words that would come out from the shouting girl. Joy was spun around by who knows who but she knew who it was. Ofcourse it was the one and only Aphrodite. Joy knew Aphrodite has a short temper and when things weren't going her way, she would use her spell, like what she just did right now. "Oh, Baephrodite, I didn't know you were here but uh, I understand you're charming but you know, I'm running for errands and Zeus Daddy's going to kill me." "That's good to hear then." Before Joy could even give a worse remark, Joohyun spoke again. "To make things quick, Do you know a Hephaestus?" Joohyun knew if Joy chooses to lie. The messenger of the gods knows each and every god and from the bit of information she got from Wendy, the
