Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 312

Chapter 312: Chapter 312: And The Angel Shall Descend from Heaven (III)

Long Xiurong’s eyes widened, "W-wait—!"

Swan chuckled, "Of course she will stay. My dearest friend is pregnant. She will stay in this den, and I will guarantee her safety."

Swan opened her palm and created an invisible barrier around the den, ensuring that Long Xiurong would be well protected, "This barrier will allow her to go in and out of the den as she pleases, but nobody else can enter the den except for you, her husband."

"Thank you, Princess. I am ready to go on a war now," Rock claimed as he clenched his fists. "Please take me to the war."

"Wait! Princess, I will go with my husband too!" Long Xiurong yelled as she was scared to be left alone. "I-If he ever dies in the war, then I will die with him!"

"Ah-Rong, be good and stay here. I will fulfill my duty as the Beast King’s beta and Princess Swan’s knight," Rock stopped her. "Worry not. I will come out victorious. It won’t be long."

"I-I still want to go!" Long Xiurong insisted.

Swan felt conflicted. She obviously wouldn’t send her to the warzone, and definitely not to the Beast’s castle, because the situation was very dangerous there.

Unfortunately, she also couldn’t bring her to the Goddess’ realm. Unlike Swan and Gale, Long Xiurong was just a normal human.

"My dear friend, you need to stay in here for now," Swan persuaded softly. "This is for your safety."

"But my husband—!"

"Do not worry, I—Swan Asmara—promise to protect your husband. Rock will not be killed in this war," Swan stopped, and Long Xiurong finally stopped resisting.

She looked at Princess Swan, and her heart told her to trust the Saintess for now.

Thus, she nodded and said, "Please protect my husband, Princess. I really can’t live without him..."

Rock gritted his teeth.

To be honest, he grew up as a warrior and was ready to die anytime to protect his family and his honor. Therefore, his mate’s words just now felt so heavy in his heart.

He got up and hugged his wife for the last time and whispered, "I promise that I will be home soon. Don’t worry about me."

Long Xiurong hugged her husband back and sobbed for a few seconds before pushing him away, "Go. You must return victorious, alright? I will be angry if you lose a limb or two."

Rock smiled at his mate and kissed her lips for a second, before his body was surrounded by gold dust, and—

Pop!

Rock disappeared.

Swan’s face paled as she realized that her husband and Rock’s lives were in danger. She shook her head and exclaimed, "No, we can’t let Aria attack again! She will kill my husband and my knight! Mom, aunt, please do something!"

"If they die in this war, then so be it, Swan. This is the reality of the earth realm. They wage war, kill, plunder, and then make a temporary peace. We cannot do anything against their nature," Asmara said. "You need to understand that."

"How could you say that?! They are my husband and my knight!" Swan shouted to the point that her son was also affected. He began screaming at the top of his lungs, throwing tantrums at his grandma and grandaunt.

Asmara sighed helplessly, "We cannot help—no, we shouldn’t help them."

Swan had had enough of her mother and aunt. She had no more patience dealing with them.

"I thought the two of you would help me. What is the point of having Goddesses who just sit and watch?" Swan said. She put her son next to her and dipped her two hands inside the pond.

"What are you doing, Swan?"

"If none of you want to help them, then I will do it myself!" Swan yelled as she began praying in her heart. She knew it was stupid to pray since she was literally next to the Sun and Moon Goddesses.

But she didn’t pray to either of them. She prayed to herself.

She believed in herself, and that her holy power could be used for good.

’Believe in yourself, Swan! You HAVE to save your husband and your knight no matter what!’ Swan told herself, and her hand finally shone under the pond, a sign that she had successfully used her power just like Selene and Asmara.
