"Nef…"
The Goddess looked at Melissa and with a confused gaze, asked, "Big sis?"
"Nef-chan, curse that man," said Melissa, down on Earth, pointing at the man who slapped his wife.
The Goddess turned to look at the man her sister was pointing at and saw a bit of black aura around him.
The more the Goddess looked, the more his black aura increased.
"Nef-chan, stop staring so much, you'll kill everybody otherwise. Look back at me."
Nefaria diverted her attention back to Melissa as she heard that. She then said calmly, "that mortal's karmic value will get him a bad providence in his next life anyway, why the extra curse?"
Gods weren't emotional beings, they were rational and just.
Rules were well established and the universe was running properly according to it.
What Melissa just requested was meddling with the rules and Nefaria wanted to know the reason for it.
From Earth, Melissa said with an annoyed face, "I was having such a sweet conversation with a little girl and her mother, but this man came and slapped the mother and the poor little girl seemed so scared! I didn't like it!"
Nefaria sighed and thought, 'that's why I don't let you visit me, big sis.'
Melissa was an emotional Goddess unlike the rest such as Scarlett, Fate, Nix, Athena, and so on…
Despite knowing it was a normal course of life, Melissa would feel bad when she would see people in constant agony and suffering.
Due to her being emotional, providence of devotees would be altered.
Thankfully, Scarlett, who was the opposite of Melissa in terms of emotions, existed.
It was due to Scarlett that Nefaria and Fate didn't have to work extra hard to restore the altered providence of devotees.
However, since 'balance' between Melissa and Scarlett was absent, Nefaria and Fate were busier than usual these days.
Nefaria was the Goddess of Calamity herself who brought nothing but destruction, pain, chaos, suffering, disaster…
A literal hell upon whoever she gazed at.
The things she did as a Goddess… they were so so so sad and depressing that just one peek at her calamity realm would cause anyone to lose their mind and want to kill themselves.
Long back, this one time Melissa had gone to see Nefaria and when she had a look at her realm, she became so emotional that the balance of the universe was almost toppled.
Providence went haywire and Scarlett had to stop her deep meditation and come out of seclusion to calm down Melissa as well as help restore the equilibrium.
Not just her, every God and Goddess had to quickly come out and help restore the balance, otherwise the cosmos would've collapsed.
It was from that day onwards that Nefaria forbade anyone from entering her realm other than her husband and older sister Scarlett.
There was no need for any of her sisters to go through this level of pain and distress.
When someone wanted to see Nefaria, it was her who would leave her realm and go see them.
Nefaria forbade everyone from entering for their own good.
Whatever the case, after that day, Melissa and Nefaria's bond, instead of weakening, only strengthened further as Melissa realized just what Nefaria had to go through everyday.
To Nefaria, it felt normal and she didn't mind what she was doing.
Looking down at her older sister, Nefaria could only shake her head with a smile.
Her emotional aspects had still not changed. 'I guess now that she's in the mortal world, I am gonna have more work.'
She chuckled thinking so.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm Looking at Melissa, Nefaria said with a small smile, "I'll do it big sis. But what are you giving me in return?"
"Haww… you're gonna ask something from your sister in return?" Melissa said with a surprised expression.
"Obviously. Nothing is free, my child." Nefaria spoke in a manner a normal deity would, which she was.
"Tch. That's why I don't like you." Melissa said.
Nefaria smirked. "Good. Good. As it should be."
Melissa then rolled her eyes and said with a sigh, "Kami-sama, please be magnanimous and listen to the prayers of this puny mortal."
A smile crept on Nefaria's face as she heard that. Both her older sisters were really cute and fun when they played along like this.
Nefaria decided to play along with her big sis and said, "My child… I'll listen to your wishes on one condition: put me two places ahead in the list to see husband and I shall do it. Oh how I wish it was me in your stead hugging him there…"
Nefaria hugged herself and imagined herself hugging Alex.
"God, I can't do anything about your useless rock-paper-scissors skills. You brought it upon yourself. Ask something else."
An answer came straight away and broke all of Nefaria's fantasies. She clicked her tongue and said, "then give husband some hints about me so that he'll easily recognize me and do me the moment he sees me."
"Will I be able to join too—"
"Shut it, you pervert. I want alone time with my husband."
"Huhuhu… bully…" Melissa let out a fake cry.
"Tch. Go away, I'll grant your wish." Nefaria said and swiped her palm at Melissa and her husband's image below, making them disappear and the man to appear.
She gazed at him for an instant with her crimson eyes and the black aura around him rose as high as two feet above his head.
"That should do it, I think. Hmm… maybe not…" Nefaria shook her head and looked at him for another instance and the aura rose six feet high.
"That should be it." Nefaria said and swiped the image in front of her, making it disappear.
She sat back on her throne and thought with a flushed face, "I saw husband… mhm~… how will the time be when I see him down in the mortal world… I heard they have much more lewd stuff… hehehe… I'm gonna try out everything!"
The Goddess of Calamity got busy making fantasies in her head and the people under her who were suffering got a little break for the coming few seconds.
***
Back on Earth.
"Nef…" Melissa said one word and gazed up at the sky while hugging Alex, but in the next second, she smiled and let go of him.
This made Alex think, 'Nef?'
Whose name did his wife say out loud? Was it some of her sister or just a random person?
Looking at her smiling face, Alex asked, "Nef?"
Melissa looked back at him and let out a surprised reaction. "You hear everything, even if it's just for a second, don't you darling?"
Alex shrugged. "You said it right near my ears, can't help it."
Melissa chuckled. "Right, right. And yes, Nef. She's my sister, also your wife. She asked me to give you a small hint about her so that the moment you see her, you do her."
Alex stared at his wife with a dumbfounded expression.
In just a matter of seconds, he got so much information out of nowhere.
Alex wished she had said things such as these about Nix too when he asked her.
Melissa then held Alex's hand and dragged him away from the protesters.
"Let's go, we are yet to finish our talks."
