The World Of The Venerate: Everwhite
Chapter 175 - Astrapic Statement
Moments later, Zchaira begins to practice activating the power of eternal fertility according to the direction given by the peacock dragon Shydhie.
“Zchaira try to concentrate on thinking about the power that is within you.. In your current level of strength, you will still have a little trouble activating it, but at least you should try slowly.” Shydhie said, giving directions to the girl.
“If you succeed in mastering the mode of eternal fertility power, then gradually your strength will be stronger, and do not rule out the possibility that you will be able to rise to the next level, and then you will be able to rise to the next level,” continued the peacock dragon explained.
“Good Shydhie.. But at least save the explanation first, because I'm trying to concentrate now,” reply Zchaira, seemed disturbed to hear the explanation of the peacock dragon.
“Alright.. Looks like you are really excited about this.” Shydhie also agreed to Zchaira's words, and preferred to stay silent first while the girl was concentrating on activating her own power.

Moving on to Artemis and Astrapi, who now seem to be sitting on the edge of a cliff in the mountains, while waiting for Zchaira to finish training.
“Mother... Did you approve of Kral's sister with Aphrodia's sister?” Astrapi asked, curious because he was still not sure of the statement from Artemis while inside the inn.
“Of course, why not? Although actually the thing that hinders it is that Kral has now become the Venerate in the western region, while Aphrodia is the Venerate of the eastern region,” Artemis answered while explaining things that would likely hinder the relationship between Kral and Aphrodia.
“Iya.. You are indeed right, I also thought of such a thing,” Astrapi response.
“Do you ask because you think about it Astrapi?” Ask Artemis, curious.
“Actually not because of that..”.
“Then... Is it possible that you actually disapprove of your brother along with Aphrodia?” Ask Artemis again.
“Eh... Why should that be? Of course I cannot possibly have such thoughts.” Astrapi said, a little surprised to hear a question from Artemis.
“Actually I was thinking is it possible that mother, as well as father would do the same if brother Illios and I were close to someone?” Astrapi immediately explained to Artemis why she asked about Artemis' agreement on the relationship between Kral and Aphrodia.
“It turns out like that.. I think Kral's sister will not agree about her own sister's partner,” Artemis response while patting her daughter's shoulder.
However, after thinking about the statement from Astrapi, Artemis was suddenly shocked because of the possibility that her daughter had someone she liked.
“Astrapi, is it possible that you have people you like?” Ask Artemis.
Hearing Artemis question, Astrapi was immediately surprised, not expecting that her mother could find out that she was liking someone.
“Eh... That... Actually..” Astrapi then became stammered while talking, feeling awkward when Artemis found out about it.
“Astrapi, let's be honest. Don't be afraid, at least I just want to know who is the man who is liked by this mother's daughter..” Said Artemis, it seems a little forcing Astrapi to say the person she likes.
“He is from the Dirkcourt clan.. His name is Joker..” Because he really wants to be honest, Astrapi then said the man he likes to Artemis, who is not a Vampireman named Joker.
“Hmph... Joker of the Dirkcourt clan.. Who is it? Maybe you've never met her.” Artemis momentarily felt alien to the name, and immediately stated that she had never met the man called by her daughter.
“Mother met him when he was in the Xetas area ago..He was even the sister of one of the disciples named Lucia.. Doesn't mother and father know who Lucia is?”.
However, after Astrapi said that the man was the brother of Lucia, who was openly known by Artemis as one of the Vampireman races, the woman was shocked.
“Joker... Do you really like it?” Artemis asked with a surprised look on her face.
“Iya mother..” Astrapi replied, feeling a little awkward, and seemed surprised to see the surprised expression of Artemis.
“Ah, no... Not like that, the Joker is a good boy.
However, in the mind of Artemis seems to be hesitant if later Astrapi knows the truth of the Vampireman who is liked by him, what may be the feelings of his daughter will be the same as before.
“It is true that the Joker is a good man.. But, at least you should try to get to know him first, because it is likely that you can change your mind later,” said Artemis, giving a message to Astrapi.
“No mother... I'm already very sure that she's the person I like now.” Reply Astrapi, saying it confidently while standing on the edge of the cliff.
“Eh... Well, mother will support you son..” Artemis can only be silent to hear the confident speech of her daughter.
**
Besides Artemis and Astrapi talking, from a distance saw Lethis watching the two of them.
From the look on Lethis' face, the woman seemed happy to be able to see back her only daughter, whom she had never seen after about twenty-five years.
“Artemis... It turns out that you have not changed one bit..” Muttered Lethis, watching his daughter, who did not look as aging as she did.
**
“Eh...” Suddenly Artemis, felt that someone was watching them from a distance.
With a puzzled expression, the woman looked around the mountain while activating her observation power to look for the person who was watching them.
“Mother...What's up?” Astrapi also became confused when he saw his mother was like astonishment to pay attention to the surrounding place.
“There is someone who is watching us..” replied Artemis.
Hearing this, Astrapi swiftly also activated her observation power, and instantly learned the whereabouts of the person who was watching them.
“Disana... I felt the aura of someone from behind the forest,” said Astrapi pointed at the person who was watching them in the forest in the mountains.
Without a second thought, the vice-president of the Lightio magician's pin instantly slid in accordance with Astrapi's direction.
“Mother wait..”
**
Seeing Artemis and Astrapi heading towards him, Lethis swiftly moved away from the place.
**
Shortly after Astrapi's direction, the two of them were finally able to catch up, until they clearly saw that the person who had noticed them before was Lethis.
“Mother..!” Artemis shouted as she clearly saw Lethis in front of her.
Hearing the call, Lethis stopped and turned to Artemis and Astrapi.
“Mother... Is that you?” How glad Artemis was to see her mother Lethis again.
However, suddenly a Vampireman named Zenef appears and immediately holds Lethis disappearing simultaneously in front of Artemis and Astrapi.
