The next morning, the entire Moon Court gathered once more. Tension crackled in the air like lightning. Lucien was dragged out in fresh chains, his body now healed thanks to Elise's secret visit. He looked so refreshed and clean.
There no wound on his skin even though he was badly injured the day before.
The Moon Goddess sat on her throne, her expression thunderous. Beside her, Elise maintained her cold mask, while Hera smirked from the side, clearly expecting this to be the end. Especially for Lucien.
Her sister's happiness will finally be stolen away. Even though no one wanted to say it, she believed Elise didn't really like her new fiance, she only choose him to spite Lucien.
"Today is your final trial," the Goddess announced. "You will face the one I have chosen for my daughter. Her betrothed, Lord Azrael of the Eternal Veil. Defeat him, and I will consider your claim. Lose… and your existence ends here."
