Chapter 2449: What Happened Here?



Noah knew exactly what was happening, or well, he figured it out just as quickly. Not only was a powerful Outer God behind this, a very strong one capable of distorting reality and warping space and time, but also, he had taken over a host.

Most likely, they were using the very magic and elemental powers of Clementina to manifest their powers properly. No being with such power would be able to easily wield it within the interior of a Universe without many penalties.

Therefore, they used a host, a vessel for them, to leverage the penalties, using their bodies and magic to manifest their powers, for a purpose, whatever purpose this was.

"So you're saying Clementina did this? But she's... did she betray us?" wondered Iris.

"You know her, she would never do that," said Noah. "But I am sure she must have been caught off-guard. She's too strong, so it was only natural for her to be one day surprised and caught off guard... Hah."

"Then we have to save Aunt Clementina, right?" Dante asked, Noah's son was quite brave. "She needs our help; we can't abandon her, dad!"

"Yeah," Eleanora nodded. "I agree with brother."

"Hmph, if it were up to me I would... Ahhh, of course, let's rescue her!" Iris smiled, noticing Noah wasn't in the mood for her jokes.

"I know you have a certain rivalry with her, Iris..." Noah sighed. "And I ask you to drop it now. I believe that you might have had some fault in her heart becoming even more fragile than before, to the point she was possessed by someone else."

"My fault?" Iris wondered, feeling shocked.

"Not completely, but we have to be honest here, you... and me, we're both in fault here," said Noah. "Iris, I love you... You know that, right?"

"I-I do, of course..." Iris nodded.

"And I don't love Clementina," said Noah. "I care for her, and I might "love" her, as a friend, family. Perhaps as far as a sister, a little sister I take care of and protect. But that's about it. Your rivalry with her... drop it. There's no point to it, because there's no chance for her to ever gain my heart anyways. You're only making her feel more miserable."

"But she's also hostile with me, dear, it isn't just a thing I do!" said Iris, crossing her arms. "Hahh... Fine. I'll try to not do it again.'

"And apologize to her once we find her," said Noah. "I'll do so as well."

"A-Apologize?!" gasped iris. "Me?! I am the Empress of Blood! Why should I... Ahh... Ok..."

Iris wanted to protest and fight back against Noah's words, but her very stare quickly made her shut up and nod.

He was serious, and he wasn't going to take her cockiness into account anymore. That she was his wife didn't meant he would let her do whatever she wanted, only sewing more discord between HIS family.

"We're all family, Iris," he held his hand. "We have to get along, and care for one another. Hatred, violence, rivalries... such things shouldn't exist, they're the things that make the other Vampires. The Lesser Ones down below, so much lesser than us. We are better, superior. We've beyond their petty fights and greed. Right? So please, understand."

"I-I know..." Iris sighed, smiling a bit. "I know you only want the best for us... Okay."

"Good, you're my good girl," Noah smiled, caressing her neck as Iris felt instantly charmed by his eyes and handsome voice, accompanied with his deep voice.

As he held Iris and kissed her lips, Dante and Eleanora glared from the sides with poker faces.

"Uuhh... Dad? Mom? I don't think this is the place to be doing this stuff! Come on!" Date protested.

"Hm, I agree with brother," nodded Eleanora, covering her mouth. "Please don't do that... for now."

"A-Aaah! I'm sorry, I got carried away!" Iris gasped, separating her lips from Noah's. "L- Let's get going then!"

"Yeah," nodded Noah, who let go of Iris buttocks, which he was grasping tightly. "I suppose I'll need to take things a bit more seriously now... What a bother. I wanted to rest after killing and eating Yog-Sothoth."

Noah waved his hand, as his Blood Aura encompassed his family, putting them closer to him. And then, he descended towards the Blue Moon, formerly the Crimson Moon.

"Clementina, I know you're there!"

FLUOSH!

Suddenly, Noah, Iris, Dante, and Eleanora gasped.

Out of nowhere, they suddenly passed through a thick dimensional membrane!

"W-What...?! When was this here?!" Iris cried.

"A dimensional membrane I couldn't detect!" said Noah. "Stay close to me!"

He quickly wrapped his giant bat-like wings around his family, without letting them get away or far away from him, ultimately, the entire family landed on a huge wasteland of ice and fire.

"Is everyone okay?"

Noah was already standing, looking around, as his family slowly stood up, they seemed fine. "Yes, it's just that it was a bit surprising..." Iris asked. "Dante? Eleanora? Everything fine?"

"I'm fine," said Eleanora.

"Me too, don't worry about us, mom," said Dante.

"Fine then," Iris said. "So where are we... Huh?"

Suddenly, Iris and the rest realized they were no longer even in the surface of the moon.

They were down below, back in the surface of Abyss itself!

Yet at the same time, they weren't.

It was like a dimension, that was taking place within it.

The pulling force they felt when they passed through the dimensional membrane actually pulled them down into the ground!

"Clementina..."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Noah noticed something, the Blue Moon, within this dimensional space, had the face of a young maiden, crying tears of ice.

And then, he saw strange messages manifesting out of this dimension itself, system messages he had not seen in thousands of years.

[You have entered the {Fragmented Dimensional Realm Dungeon}: {Distorted Palace of Memories That Leads To The Azure Staircase}!]

[To gain the Privilege of climbing the Azure Staircase, you must gather the Three Keys of

Memories.]

"Fragmented Dimensional Realm Dungeon..." Noah muttered.

"Is this what Clementina has created?" Iris asked.

[The {Lonely Azure Moon That Longs For Winter} is glancing at you.]

[She wonders if you will ever come to visit her?]

[She says that she's been so lonely... She wants someone to bring her the warmth of company.]

[Will you come bring her company?]

[Will you?]

"Clementina?!"

Even Clementina's very existence had been warped, becoming something akin to a

Constellation.
