In the middle of the crowd of dancing people, there exist two special people that everyone's eyes can't help staring at. It wasn't only because both of them were considered as beautiful and handsome, but also because they both have this sort of charm that seemingly says that these two people are Fated with each other.

The man who was obviously handsome was wearing a mask that only reveals his eyes with a drawing of a smile at the place of the mouth.

The woman was beautiful, but looking at her face, there exists a scar that really created a flaw to this beautiful vase.

And around the two of them were dancing flowers of two different colors, a black one and a gold one. Aside from that, everyone also can't help giving the floor to them as it seems like they both are in their own created world.

Both of them had already been dancing for so long. To be more exact, every man that decided to dance with someone has already switched with a few partners this entire time.

"Hey, I have a question." Queen Olivia suddenly asked.

"Ask away." Elder Rain nodded his head.

"Why are you hiding your face? Base on how I see, you are definitely a charming and handsome man. Even Barbara had mentioned that as well. So, why?"

"Would you believe me if I say that I'm afraid that my handsome and charming face would immediately make every woman who sees me fall in love with me?" Elder Rain replied with a question instead.

"Hahahaha, don't include me with that!" Queen Olivia chuckled.

Hearing that, Elder Rain really wanted to say to Queen Olivia, "Especially you, as you have been searching for me ever since I suddenly left you..."

"Hahahaha, of course, I'm just joking." Elder Rain replied this instead.

"Oh, then tell me, what exactly is the reason why you are hiding your face?" Queen Olivia became even more intrigued.

"Do you really want to know?" Elder Rain wanted to confirm.

"Yes! In fact, I want to see what you really look like. It really feels like I've met you in the past. Of course, not that time when we first fought each other back at Silver city, that time I really thought that you were from the Black organization, hahahaha!" Queen Olivia joked.

Commander Ava who was just nearby the dancing Elder Rain and Queen Olivia suddenly turned serious the moment she heard their conversation. She really wanted to stop them, not because of jealousy, for she already has a man she likes, but rather because she clearly knows that Reinhart shouldn't reveal his whereabouts yet to anyone else, at least not at this moment.

However, the moment Commander Ava wanted to approach Reinhart and make an excuse that she wanted to speak privately with him, he suddenly flies up with Queen Olivia in his arms.

"This idiot!" Commander Ava could only shake her head helplessly. There are really times when people in love make stupid decisions, no, it should be all the time. Well, who can she blame? After all, Reinhart had never met with Olivia for more than a decade now, so it's only natural for him to feel like doing something really stupid. In fact, she's clearly not an exception to that thing as well.

Without anyone noticing, Commander Ava secretly took a glance at Clydesdale, who was currently flirting with a woman. She really wants to approach him and ask how he was doing, was he okay, and can they talk privately, but seeing him talking to another woman, all of her plans were immediately put into the back of her mind. "Forget it! He should have long forgotten about me already..."

After saying that, Commander Ava excused herself from the man she was dancing with moments ago as she decided to take some fresh air for a bit.

Clydesdale who saw this quickly excused himself from the woman he was talking to as he quickly followed after Commander Ava.

.....

At this moment, up in the middle of the clouds, Queen Olivia and Elder Rain were still dancing.

"Why did you take me here?" Queen Olivia can't help asking. She was really caught off guard when Elder Rain suddenly took her to the clouds.

"Don't you want to know why I'm always hiding my face?" Elder Rain replied.

"Yes, but is it really necessary to take me up here? You could have just whispered it to me or arrange for a secret place to reveal your face, right?"

"Hahahaha, I could indeed do that, but that's very troublesome. I also can't reveal myself over there because there were a lot of people looking at us."

"I also noticed that. So, anyways, why are you always hiding your face?" Queen Olivia immediately returned back to the topic.

Elder Rain suddenly pointed at the moon as he said, "Do you know about the story of the moon and the sun?"

"What story? There are a lot of versions of such kind of story."

"Oh, then I'll just tell you my version of that story. You see, the sun and the moon were believed by many as the most ideal husband and wife. They lived together, both shining brightly and giving light up in the sky. Also, they have countless kids which are those countless stars we are seeing right now."

"Huh? How is this related to why you are hiding your face? Don't tell me you are one of those stars and you don't want your mom and dad to see you, hahahahaha!" Queen Olivia joked.

"But just like every love story, a tragedy will always happen."

Hearing this part, Queen Olivia's face immediately turned serious as she didn't laugh with Elder Rain's story anymore.

"The Gods became so jealous of their love. Hence, with the lead of the God of Jealousy, they immediately pulled the sun and moon apart, causing the distance between the two of them to be unreachable no matter what they would do, and creating the day and night as a result."

"However, the sun and the moon would of course not give up just because the Gods had pulled them apart. They keep on chasing each other, causing the Celestial World to change from night to day and day to night. And although it still seemed like they can't meet with one another, they still keep on chasing and chasing and chasing."

Suddenly, Queen Olivia continued the story, "Then, all of the Gods who saw this took pity of their everlasting love, even all of those who once felt jealous about them, though except for that God of Jealousy. But, because that God of Jealousy was so powerful, they can't do anything open to bring the sun and moon back together and let them continue their love."

"But one day, the God of Fate and the God of Love thought of a very wise idea. They immediately shared it to all of the Gods who supported the sun and the moons' love, and this includes the wife of the God of Jealousy."

"They proposed that the God of Jealousy's wife should help make her husband sleep, which would then allow all of them to secretly help the sun and moon to meet with each other. Even for only a bit..."

"This was immediately agreed by every God, and the plan was executed. Every time the God of Jealousy sleeps with the help of his beloved wife, all of the Gods would then use their power to make the sun and the moon meet, which then created the Eclipse..."

Elder Rain actually wanted to stop the story at the chasing part, because he wanted to say that Olivia never gave up and continued on chasing and chasing and chasing after him, but seeing how engrossed she was with the story, he decided to just let her continue telling it.

"I'm sorry, I completely have forgotten that you actually wanted to use this story to answer my question." Queen Olivia apologized. To be honest, this story was the favorite story of her and Reinhart, as the both of them were not agreed by her family to be together, but because of their everlasting love, a few of her family finally agreed and hence created chances for them to be together. Until finally, they became one. However, just like every love story, there would always exist a tragedy, just like what Elder Rain had said.

"It's okay..." Elder Rain said, "Anyways, what I wanted to say is, there is someone who keeps on chasing after me, so I need to hide so as to not let this person find out about my whereabouts."

"What?!" Queen Olivia was immediately surprised after hearing this, "I thought that what you were going to say was you were chasing her and she's chasing after you but someone is against it and is doing everything to stop the both of you!"

"Do you really want me to answer your question or not?" Elder Rain asked in irritation.

"Oh, hehehehe, go on, then..." Queen Olivia said, feeling embarrassed.

"So yeah, this person keeps on chasing after me and doesn't give up. And I also want to finally meet her. But, because of some circumstances, I can't meet with her yet, and my identity is also something that can't be revealed as of this moment. But soon, I will definitely return to her, as I've promised to her that once I became strong, I will come back to her." Elder Rain finally finished with his words.

"Oh, it's actually like that," Queen Olivia really felt ashamed of what she had just said to Elder Rain. "Let's go meet up with the others?"

"Okay!" Elder Rain nodded.

Seemingly like Queen Olivia had completely forgotten that they were currently up in the clouds, she suddenly let go of Elder Rain's arm. It would have been fine, considering she's a 7th Galaxy Mage, however she was currently seriously injured right now, hence her Magic casting speed was tremendously affected. With its current state right now, she would reach the ground first before she can finish casting the Flight spell.

"Oy, watch out!" Elder Rain quickly caught Queen Olivia. But with how life-threatening it was, she had panicked for a bit despite being instantaneously caught by him, which in turn made her unexpectedly remove the mask covering his face.

"You..." Queen Olivia was stuck beyond belief as soon as she saw Reinhart's face behind the mask.

"Please forgive me, but this is still not the right time for you to see me." Reinhart whose identity has been revealed didn't panic. He immediately put a finger on Queen Olivia's forehead, quickly erasing that part of the memory. Fortunately, it was only a bit, and it had happened just now, hence he was able to quickly find that memory and remove it.

After doing that, Queen Olivia's eyes closed, which Reinhart quickly took the chance to grab his mask and put it back on his face.

A second later, Queen Olivia opened her eyes once again. But this time, she had completely forgotten the part where she saw Reinhart behind the mask.

"Did something just happened?"

"You nearly fell to the ground just now after you suddenly let go of my arms. Tch, you need to watch out, you still haven't completely healed your body, so it would have been disastrous for you if I didn't catch you." Elder Rain immediately explained what had just happened.

"Oh, but why do I feel like something in me is missing? Wait... why am I crying?" Queen Olivia slowly put her right hand on her crying face.

Seeing those tears, Elder Rain quickly turned his head around, hoping to not regret what he had just done to his beloved wife. Just those tears alone were already breaking his heart, not to mention seeing Queen Olivia's face right now.

"I don't know, maybe it's because of fear, hehehe..." Elder Rain quickly changed the topic.

"Maybe..."

"Let's go down."

"Okay...."
