Each of the statues inside of the Sanctuary of Night carried the breath of the gods that blessed them. Just by looking at each of them would make one feel the divine might of each divine being. Adrian imrsed himself in this majesty until he noticed the small sphere that looked like the moon.
[You have discovered the Guardian Module of Island Zeta.]
[Activate the Guardian Module in order to awaken the guardian that takes care of the island.]
Adrian then proceeded to touch the small moon that is in front of the statues. As soon as his hand touched the moon, a good amount of his mana and divine energy was taken from him. The moon started to crack like an egg like in the legend but that is a legend about the Ryujin which is not a concept in the central continent. Adrian is very curious as to what the guardian looks like as they often take the appearance of their respective islands.
The guild mbers also saw that their guild leader touched sothing and proceeded to pour insane amounts of mana and divine energy into it. They prepared to fight just in case as they do you do not know what hidden things are in the island. Just because they are in Avalon does not an that they are always safe.
[You have activated the Guardian of Island Zeta.]
[The Guardian has already been blessed by a na.]
[You have added Selene as one of the guardians of your territory.]
"Huwaah!"
The voice of a cute female child suddenly reverberated in the area as if they just woke up from a nap. The guardian took the form of a small female child that is about three feet tall. She also has clear blue hair with eyes that are as round as the moon. Her eyes also sparkled like starlight as it is a mixture of deep purple and specks of white. The noticeable thing is that she was not created or born alone as she is actually riding what looks like a crescent moon that is only a little bit bigger than her.
"ne!" The Baby Erebus suddenly stated as he beca shocked at the being that ca out of the moon.
The Baby Erebus could not believe that the small girl that has beco a guardian actually bears resemblance to her beloved. Adrian did not find it mysterious though as he did detect parts of a soul in the Dark Moon creation relic. He thought that the divine soul fragnts that was mixed inside of the creation relic were just re flickers of the divine energy of the deceased moon goddess, but it seems so of it has still the breath of life.
"I am Selene. The Guardian of Island Zeta and caretaker of the Sanctuary of Night. I greet my master." Selene stated as she bowed before Adrian, but the latter only found it adorable as if a small child was acting like an adult.
"It is nice to et you, Selene. I guess I will be in your care for this island. Please tend to it comfortably. Also, I should introduce to you the first resident here." Adrian stated as he called upon Solstice as she is carrying Erebus.
"ne! Do you not recognize ?" The Baby Erebus asked as he actually used his own mana to float in front of Selene.
"Negative. I do not recognize you, but I welco you to the island. Is he the designated protection target, master?" Selene stated as she ignored Erebus and looked at Adrian.
"Yes. He will live here from now on so please take care of him as well. Make sure that he is comfortable during his stay." Adrian stated as he took the Baby Erebus.
"Affirmative. I shall now comnce a wide area sweep to check the state of the island. Please excuse ." Selene stated as she sat on her crescent moon and floated high above before releasing magic that took the form of a glittery veil.
"She does not recognize !" The Baby Erebus stated.
"You are just born, and you are already starting to chase won older than you. Maybe you are just like your father." Adrian stated as he looked at Lycan as Solstice is a few months older than him.
"What is this slander I am hearing about myself?" Lycan asked as his ears suddenly beca itchy.
"Nothing but I should remind you that she is not the sa being that you have once loved. The soul placed inside of her is rely a small spark of what she once was. She will never regain the mories that you have once shared as gods that mostly had their divine essences destroyed are like that. You can actually call it lucky that there was a small piece of her that survived." Adrian stated as he explained the situation to Erebus.
"Basically, your uncle is telling you to stay patient and just enjoy her company for now. You are still young after all and have many years ahead of you. Take your ti and live in the mont as you are not the prophesized savior or soone that will sacrifice your life for the world. You are just another child that has been born to this world." Solstice explained as she did not forbid Erebus in pursuing Selene as long as he gets older.
"That still does not save from the slander that I heard earlier though." Lycan stated as he wanted to defend himself from suddenly having been called attracted to older won.
"Do not worry, brother-in-law. To each their taste." Adrian stated as he handed Erebus over to him before inspecting the rest of the island.
Adrian then told each of the guild mbers to inspect the island for areas other than this massive altar room. Once all of the island has been surveyed, Adrian told Solstice and Lycan that this will be the new ho of Erebus and where his other guards will be living with him. Solstice and Lycan had vampires and werewolves follow them as temporary guards for Erebus. They cannot handle the reincarnation of their true ancestor lightly after all.
The vampires and werewolves that followed Solstice and Lycan respectively did not fight but they are very competitive with each other. They might be united in taking care of Erebus but their competitive nature against one another has yet to be truly broken. They would even fight on who made Erebus’ diapers cleanly. Erebus did not mind them as much because he is enjoying Selene’s company even if she has monotone replies as of now.
"I guess this might be an unexpected surprise even for the Goddess Nox." Adrian stated with a smile.

In the eastern continent, the secret organization has been quiet for a few months, but they have started to move. In the capital of the Azure Dragon, which is nad after it, a powerful explosion could be seen as a large density mana sphere suddenly ca down from above. This large density mana sphere was created by an Immortal man that is dressed like a Shinto Priest holding a divine spear.
"Izanagi!" The Azure Dragon shouted as it burst out of the large spire that it is taking residence on.
"The ti for your death has arrived." Izanagi stated as he created a mandala behind him and activated eight large jade beads behind him.
The Azure Dragon fought against Izanagi in the skies, but he was not alone. A woman dressed in the garb of a Shinto Priestess appeared carrying her cursed sickles ca flying from the side. She pierced the Azure Dragon with her weapons, and it made the divine beast spill blood. The Azure Dragon tried to shake her off, but Izanami was clinging to the body of the forr with all her might.
"Both of you shall die here once again!" The Azure Dragon shouted as it flew up higher and created a powerful lightning storm.
The Azure Dragon wanted to have himself bathe in lightning in order to shake off Izanami and heavily damage Izanagi. The Azure Dragon knew that these two beings are still in the bodies of demigods. They cannot rise to full divinity because of the curse placed upon them. Victory is already in the mind of the Azure Dragon when it suddenly felt that its own strength suddenly dropped a bit.
"What is happening?!" The Azure Dragon shouted as the energy it released beca shortened as if its strength faded.
"Your dragon orb has been destroyed." Izanami stated with a smile which the Azure Dragon could not believe.
The Dragon Orb of the Azure Dragon is being guarded by its most trusted being. It was also in a very secret place that no one can access it without scouring the territory. The only way that the dragon orb to be destroyed is for that very guardian to betray the Azure Dragon.
"Do not tell !" The Azure Dragon exclaid in shock as that is what truly happened.
