Chapter 12 - chapter 12: Road to king (4)

A few minutes after Shin and Satel teleported away . Bjorn returns to his house.

He throws the sword hilt on the floor and walks upstairs. Bjorn takes off his clothes and goes into the shower.

Bjorn turns on the hot water and just stands there, spaced out. Shin's words echoed through his mind.

He stands there , feeling disgusted by himself. His lips curl up as rage boils in his body.

It fills him to the brim and sits there like a volcano waiting to erupt. Bjorn clenched his fists in rage, his body tense with fury.

I need to fix this .

Bjorn reluctantly got out the shower after standing there spaced out for ten minutes. He dries himself off and wears a tracksuit bottom and a t-shirt.

"Bjorn honey, dinner is ready," a voice called out from downstairs.

"Coming honey," Bjorn responded as he walked out the room.

Just as he reached the stairs he heard the door bell ring. Confused, Bjorn went down and opened it.

His blood went cold when he saw who it was. He froze in fear as his body tensed up once more with rage.

"Aren't you going to invite me in servant," the goddess said with a smug look on her face.

Bjorn's face contorted with rage as he balled up his fists. The goddess glanced at his fists and smiled.

"Careful now mortal. Wouldn't want to put your family in harm's way now, would we?" The goddess asked grinning.

Bjorn stayed silent as he stared at her. The goddess started becoming irritated with Bjorn.

"Move," the goddess command as her eyes glowed bright gold.

Bjorn felt a burning sensation on his chest as that area flickered gold. He reluctantly stepped back and bowed as the goddess entered.

"So who was It?" Bjorn's wife asked as she walked out to see the goddess.

The goddess smiled as she went into the kitchen. Bjorn's wife stood motionless ,looking directly at Bjorn.

"Take the kids and go up stairs," Bjorn said, finally breaking his silence," I'll take care of her."

Without missing a beat Bjorn's wife ran called out the their kids and looked herself up in their room.

Bjorn entered the kitchen and was greeted by the goddess sitting on the stools around the kitchen counter, sipping a glass of wine.

Bjorn went and sat on the stool opposite to her. He looked at her without saying a word. The goddess took another sip of her wine.

"O lowly servant of mine, where is that disgusting waste of a miracle," she said , her face unreadable.

"I'm surprised you don't know where Kai lives," Bjorn responded with bickering.

The goddess squeezed her glass of wine, shattering it. Her eyes glowed once more. The atmosphere in the room tensed as both let their mana leak and clash.

"Pull on more stunt like this and I will rain he'll on your family," She said as the death shook with each word.

Bjorn clenched his teeth as his a burning sensation shot through Bjorn's chest. It felt like he was getting branded.

"Then I shall return the gesture with equal magnitude," Bjorn said as he tensed his body in pain.

"Tch," the goddess scoffed as she stood up and walked out the house , leaving Bjorn alone in the kitchen.

A few minutes passed and Bjorn's wife and two children walked into the room. She found Bjorn dimming.

Bjorn got up and lifted his two children up, forcing a smile on his face. He walked into the living room with them and turned on the tv.

Bjorn's wife stared at him with worry on her face. She wanted to say something but kept quiet and served them dinner.

They ate watching tv. Taking their minds off the conversation that had occurred.
