Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Void of the Heart. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own HI3D, miHoYO and a few others do.
(Earth, Oliver's home, 12:00 PM, Thursday.)
Oliver wheezed while Sirin continued to sit by him, she looked at the tv.
"While the Star Republic has since denied involvement of the destruction of the Zima Empire's fleet. The Zima Empire high senate has declared war on the Star Republic, the Star Republic has since vowed to respond…" The tv said, Sirin slowly sighed and used her telekinesis to turn off the tv.
"Sergey took over an entire country and turned it against the world… And I used to think of Humans as such repugnant and vile creatures… Now it seems even the gods like me have fallen from grace…" Sirin said, running her pointer finger down Oliver's face.
It had been maybe a week or so, perhaps a few days… But Sirin did truly care for the human… Maybe it was because she hadn't experienced kindness that wasn't forced on her… Maybe it was because the Human assisted and trusted in her without wanting something stupid in return.
She wondered if he cared about knowledge or just wanted her to stay on Earth.
If was so he stayed on Earth? She would gladly do so… She rather enjoyed Earth… At least more then the nothingness of the void… She could become queen of Earth and the Void.
But such thoughts were better reserved for after she won the war with Sergey.
"If Sergey was using the war to take me down, he probably pulled his forces back to Earth…. Great, now I'm… We're, at war both with the Zima Empire and the army of a god… I pray I can summon my army soon… Perhaps if I'm lucky I can rally the other Humans…" Sirin said looking at her black and pink elbow glove and then her other white and orange one, she pulled at the black fur on her neck and then looked at the black and yellow thigh-highs she wore.
"This world will be a battleground for the gods… And yet I feel a kinship to this planet I didn't think I would feel…" Sirin said before she heard a laugh.
"Sounds like your growing to be Human… And it's not from being on Earth." Oliver said, Sirin flew to his side.
"You are such an interesting human, Oliver… I never learned your last name…" Sirin said before Oliver chuckled.
"Its Caerwyn… What about you? We sunk a fleet and I never learned the last name of the Goddess who wanted to settle on Earth from what I heard." Oliver asked.
Sirin wanted to frown at her friend before smiling lightly and playfully flicking him on the head.
"You dunce… Spying on me while I told you to rest… You remind me of the people my mother talked about… My last name is Kaslana…" Sirin said while she kneeled down till, she was face to face with the Human.
"Thousands of Zima soldiers will be here within days… They will fight your soldiers… And they will slaughter everything your military possesses…." Sirin said before she blinked.
"I will fight them… Sergey is leading the Zima against Humans… It is an unspoken rule that gods shouldn't involve themselves with Human affairs… A rule I have already broken… I do not care to have broken it… But I will not allow Harm to come to this land… He attacked someone close to me… In the realm of the gods, a god or goddess that has a servant struck? They are expected to respond…" Sirin said and sighed.
"You are a friend, though… Perhaps my interest in you is romantic like Sergey said… And perhaps it isn't… Either way, you I will protect… But I believe we have a talk to have after the invasion of the Star Republic is done?" Sirin asked, patting Oliver on the head.
She had no idea why, but Oliver feebly trying to move her hand from his hand and blushing brought her endless joy and amusement.
Perhaps this was love… She would find out soon enough, she leaned back and floated.
"How do you plan to fight millions alone? God or not, Sergey has to have someone able to defeat you… And I'm just one person… We've fought the Zima before… It's not just people… It's you, Sirin…" Oliver said and Sirin blushed and looked to the side.
"I'll handle myself, Oliver… I'm glad you keep showing concern for me… Truly, it reminds me of my general… But I will handle myself… And my army will return to me soon… Until then? It seems it's time the army of the Star Republic learn who I am… Rest… Or I will find out... And make sure you rest before you get up to help again…" Sirin stated in amusement.
Oliver sighed and nodded with an amused smile.
Sirin continued to power what Sergey and the Zima truly wanted.
And how to fight them.
Author Notes
Phew, another chapter done! I want to point out Sirin is slowly becoming more Human, I'm not trying to rush it… Though the romance might begin after the invasion ends in 6 chapters or so. Next chapter will be on Saturday or so and will show the start of the invasion arc and the battle of New Asao. Until them, Lighting Wolf out!
