Chapter 805
âThatâs weird. Where could she have gone?â Skadi muttered. She then
pushed open the door to the master bedroom and noticed the bulging
blanket on the bed. Worried, she walked over and said with concern,
Hera, I heard youâre not feeling wellâ¦â
Before she could finish her sentence, she caught a strange, pungent
smell in the air. âWhatâs that smell?â
Skadi sniffed and fanned the air as she walked closer.
Hera opened her sleepy eyes when she saw Skadi before closing
them lazily again. Suddenly, her brows furrowed as she abruptly
opened her eyes again. âSkadi.. how did you⦠get in?â
She covered herself up to the neck with the blanket quickly, not
wanting Skadi to see any lingering traces of the intimacy she and
Nash had shared.
Noticing the redness of Heraâs face, Skadi reached out and toured
her forehead. âAre you running a fever?â
Hera shook her head. âN-No, not at all!â
Skadi nodded, her expression relaxing. Seeing that Skadi was short
inspecting her bedding, Hera breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the next moment, Skadi suddenly bent down and lifted the
blanket. âHey-â
âAh! What are you doing?!â Hera screamed and yanked the blanket
back. Her face turned even redder.
The scene before Skadi was stark. Was that⦠blood on the blanket?
Récalling the smell just now, realization dawned on Skadi. âSo, your
and Nashâ¦â
Heraâs head shrank into the blanket as she complained, âWhy are you
so annoying? Get out, I need to get dressed!â
Skadi crouched down curiously and asked, âHow was it? Did it feel
good?â
âWhy, you little⦠Get out!â Hera blushed as she yelled shyly.
Skadi roared with laughter. âAlright, alright. Iâll wait for you outside!â
She left the room as soon as she finished speaking.
Hera bit her lip and climbed out of bed before slowly making her way into the bathroom for a shower. In the bathroom, she looked at the
bruises and marks on her body with a smile. Finally, she felt like a
woman.
She even hesitated to wash away the scent Nash had left on her. However, she felt very uncomfortable after sweating so much la
night.
Skadi was standing at the door, her phone almost out of battery. However, Hera took her time before finally opening the door.
Skadi sidled up to Hear and asked, âHow was it? Did Nash impress you? Was he done in three seconds?â
Hera recalled the madness of last night and blushed. âIt wasnât like that at all. He was really good!â
Chuckling, Skadi teased, âI can tell. Otherwise, you wouldnât have
trouble walking!â
Nash was a martial artist with physical qualities far beyond the average person, and he also possessed extraordinary medical skills. He had likely conditioned his body to be extremely powerful long ago.

Hera gave Skadi a disdainful look and asked, âCan we not talk about this topic? How about discussing Father Cillian instead?â
Pouting, Skadi said, âWhatâs there to talk about that stupid priest?â
âDidnât you adore him before? Whatâs with the indifference now?â Heral laughed playfully. Up until recently, Skadi often forwarded videos of Father Cillian to her, claiming she must win him over.
âForget it. That guy doesnât know how to appreciate the finer things in life. I confessed to him and he said priests arenât allowed to be
involved in worldly matters!
âLater, when I went to Quiet Winds Church to find him, those stinky priests didnât even let me through the gate. Can you believe how rude he is?â
Skadi got angry just mentioning it, her face turning as red as an apple.
Hera chuckled. âFather Cillian is, after all, the head of Quiet Winds Church. Itâs a place for self-cultivation, and as the head, he naturally has to lead by example by abandoning worldly desires and focusing on practicing the Path!â
Skadi sighed softly. âDo you think Iâll never get married? Just when I finally started feeling something, the Smiling Grim Reaper turned out to be your man while the second man I admire is just so ascetic. I

want a simple and straightforward love. Why is it so difficult?â
Her grandfather often said she would not find a husband if she did not change her personality. She was from a martial arts family. Just how restrained could she be?
âSometimes, itâs fate and you just have to accept it. Donât force it when itâs not your fate!â
Hera comforted Skadi, saying, âWhen the time is right, your other half will appear, just like how Nash appeared in my life!â
Skadi sighed. âI hope so!â
The two continued chatting as they walked downstairs. When they reached downstairs, Bianca stood up, smiled, and greeted, âHeraâ¦â
When she noticed Skadi supporting Hera, Bianca became nervous and asked, âAre you sick?â
Skadi chuckled. âSheâs not sick at all. Nash just gave her some thorough lovinâ.â
