Chapter 1368: 19.27 Second Red Star - Soul Domain
King Augustus wanted to wake up Queen Titania, as his state was obviously not right. So he decided to enter his soul domain with just his spiritual form. It's okay for couples to enter each other's domain, but it will be almost impossible for strangers to let their souls roam, as any damage done in this place would reflect on the soul of the owner of the domain.
At this moment, Queen Titania had already closed off her heart before this happened. Adding to the fact that King Augustus and Queen Titania treated each other as just acquaintances, it would most likely be impossible for each other to enter their soul domain. Even so, King Augustus still wants to try doing so. The backlash of rejection of someone's soul domain is an injury to the soul.
That's why Imperial Doctor Ruth and Imperial Healer Kane were against their king entering the soul domain of someone as powerful as Queen Titania.
King Augustus once again leans down and allows his forehead to meet the Queen's forehead. With their heads bumped together, Augustus Kaiser spread his spiritual qi towards the soul domain of Titania Ambrosia. Unexpectedly, he met a strong rejection that denied his entrance to the latter's mindscape. The Zerg King immediately sat out and puked blood.
This time, even the corners of his eyes, ears, and nose were bleeding.
Cough.
"Your Majesty!"
"Stand back! I'm okay," King Augustus said.
Bleeding on his orifices shocked the healer and doctor in the room. Even so, he looked like he was smiling, despite the rejection.
King Augustus mumbles, "To think it's an immediate rejection, are you that angry with me, wife?"
He glanced at Cyril Bailey and said, "Cyril, make some soul-refilling pill. I'm going to try it until I successfully do it. As for the others, send them out. Call them afterward."
Cyril Bailey went to the corner of the room and brought out a furnace. Most gods in Vearth know how to concoct a pill; it is just that those who are truly talented at it are limited to a few. One of them was the God of Judgement, who was the Dad of his wife, Jing'er. This is also the reason why Hei Anjing's knowledge of medicine and pills is top-notch because he was taught when he was young.
Warden Yun Ming is his wife's direct subordinate, and everything he knows is also taught to him. Though his abilities for this kind of thing aren't as heavenly-defying as those of his wife, it's enough to say that it's a master class.
That's why he asked Cyril Bailey to make a soul-replenishing pill for him, as he knew that it would be hard for him to enter Queen Titania's soul domain regarding their current relationship.
The rejection of the Queen is normal; he is in a not-so-good state, adding to the fact that his current situation is weird. His queen's current situation is also weird as if someone had intentionally caused it. He can only have the answers to these questions once System Yue wakes up from his wife's soul domain.
Upon the second try, King Augustus once again bled from the corner of his eyes, yet he kept his eyes closed as if concentrating on something while ignoring the pain of his soul being ripped apart.

Meanwhile, Queen Titania and System Yue fell into another timeline after entering the world of memories. The two of them woke up in a world full of darkness. Despite the darkness in the area, they could still see each other and themselves clearly.
Queen Titania didn't look surprised to see a small floating moon, as he felt he had opened his eyes in such a realistic dream. The only difference is that he woke up in a different body. Even though he couldn't see himself, Titania was sure that this wasn't his real body. He was still calm in such a situation and stared at the hovering moon around him.
He heard a voice coming from the small moon: [Why does it look so familiar? Isn't this Lord Hei's real body?]
When the Zerg Queen learned that this silly moon that dared to approach him knew this body, he immediately decided to catch the stupid moon. Zhi Yue was grabbed by Queen Titania in Hunluan's body.
Zhi Yue, who was caught, said, [...???...] When he saw that Queen Titania was looking at him, he trembled.
He thought that, like before, Queen Titania could not see him at all. But for some reason, in this dream world where space and time were blurred, his existence was exposed. The silly little moon's light blinked like it was confused.
Queen Titania said, "I know you can speak and understand me? Tell me what I want and I will not squeeze you to death."
The light in the little moon blinks faster than before, obviously showing it's panicked, as he hears a young man's voice, which seems about to cry, lingering near his ears.
[Wuwuwu~ Please don't squeeze me.]
Seeing that annoying cry of the stupid moon, Queen Titania becomes softhearted. He had let him go.
Sigh~
Unexpectedly, the little moon didn't escape like he expected and instead flew closer to him, as if he were afraid of this place as well. Queen Titania realized that maybe this little thing wasn't here in the first place but was dragged in like him.
"Don't cry. So noisy. Little one, do you know where we are?"
[Sniff! I only know this is the Abyss (Void). The world of darkness.]
"Abyss?" Queen Titania frowned.
That word is something he heard for the first time but for some unknown reason, it doesn't seem to be the first time either. Moreover, he couldn't feel fear surrounded by such darkness; instead, there was an unexplainable and uncomfortable feeling coming from within him.
Queen Titania asked again, "How did you come in here?"
[Me? I was thrown here with your memories of someone. He is someone who possesses the same eye color as you do.] System Yue said.
He didn't mention the existence of Chaos to Queen Titania, as this incarnation had no memories of Lord Hei. He wouldn't know the identity of Chaos even if he explained it to him.
Queen Titania thought deeply about who might be that man who possessed the same eyes as him. Since he couldn't think of anyone, he realized something weird. Why would this weird thing get thrown here with him? The answer is simple. He had always been with him but for some reason, he didn't notice him at all.
Just as he was about to ask this silly man about it, his head suddenly ached. The kind of pain as if someone is squeezing your head. Even for someone with a high tolerance of pain like Queen Titania, he couldn't help but groan. Amid his blurry sight, some kind of scene appeared in his mind.
He saw a handsome man completely different from the Male Zergs he had seen all his life. A manly, handsome man possessed a dangerous aura. Queen Titania can hardly move her gaze away, especially at that beautiful pair of crimson vertical irises that look inhuman.
The Zerg Queen heard the man talking to him.
{Hm, I need to come out of the Abyss to help my brother create a world. It shouldn't take long, but can you take my place and become the Ruler of the Abyss while I'm at it? I will be back soon. I promise you, Snow.}
Queen Titania was confused until he couldn't control his mouth and replied to the person in front of him.
"Okay, I will wait for you. Come back soon, Xia. I will always be waiting for you here."
A warm kiss fell on his forehead, and he noticed that the handsome man in front of him had given him a peck on his forehead, making him blush uncontrollably. This is the first time Titania has felt what warmth is. It's addictive and gives him happiness. Titania can only watch the man's back fade before her eyes. Even if he reached out his hands, he couldn't reach anything.
He had a sudden emptiness in his heart.
All of a sudden, the time moved so fast before his eyes that the emptiness in his heart was replaced with intense rage and hatred. The warmth within his heart slowly fades as only coldness remains in his hollow soul. Queen Titania's silver eyes slowly get tainted with darkness after his soul is broken. The feeling of abandonment after being forgotten.
The jealousy towards those people who were able to stand beside that man's side but never treasure it.
Argh! AHHHHHHH!
Only the last positive emotion remained in the heart of the Incomplete God, which was love. Aside from this, there is only hatred, anger, envy, jealousy, and murderous intent. As if all the darkness in the world converged within the heart, protecting the last light within his life. To protect it, Queen Titania made the same choice Snow did back then.
System Yue, who watched the whole scene, was shocked. He watched Titania happily send the Lord of Void out, watched as the God of Void forgot about him, and watched him look over the scene of the Lord of Void's life outside the abyss.
Watching the man who forgot about him, who forgot about his promise to return and even forgot about his existence, who sacrificed himself so that he could escape from the Void.
Like the rumors said, the Abyss is made up of negativity. Ordinary gods can stay here; only those born with Yin Nature can, but the other gods would become 'Fallen' by staying here. Tainted with darkness, they can only go crazy slowly but surely. Until all of their emotions and feelings are gone, the pain will be with them until the end.
Zhi Yue didn't need to feel the pain, so he knew what kind of agony Queen Titania had undergone. He watched as the stronger broke down until he looked like a broken puppet with no feelings or emotions. To protect the love he just gained, he chose to kill himself in the end.
[It was only now that I understood why Lord Chaos hates Milord so much. Even so, the reason why Milord had forgotten about Lord Hei in the first was because the God of End had sealed his memories. Since he couldn't remember and hated the Void, of course, he wouldn't return there.]
[Now I don't know which of them is wrong, or maybe they were both wrong. If only the God of End didn't do that, wouldn't Milord and Lord Hei be together for so long now? Only he is to blame.]
When this scene of death was over, Zhi Yue and Titania woke up in a different place. It's a world full of white fog and water. Not far from them is a tree with silver leaves. The two couldn't help but walk towards the center, where the tree was. For System Yue, this place is similar, as this is the Soul Domain of Lord Hei. This is also Titania's Spiritual Domain.
Queen Titania mumbles, "This place is... My soul domain."
[What!?]
Upon hearing this, Zhi Yue was sure that this person was Lord Hei's Incarnation. Having the same Soul Domain is impossible, as it is something born from one's soul. With tears pouring out of nowhere from the small moon, the Zerg Queen was bewildered by the crying moon.
[It's you. It's definitely you. You are Lord Hei's Incarnation. Also, Lord Ye's wife!]
Queen Titania frowned when he heard what the silly moon said: "I am no one's wife!"
System Yue said, [That's not true. I can't be wronged. This soul domain is the proof. You are Lord Hei's incarnation, a soul fragment that was reincarnated in this world. We descend to this world to find you. I, A'Yang, Lord Ye, Warden Lou, and Warden Yun all came just to find you.]
Queen Titania for some reason, wanted to throw away this annoying little moon, "Who the hell are those? I don't know any of them."
System Yue explained properly. [You've met them before! Lord Ye is the current King Augustus; Warden Lou and Warden Yun are the couple of Marquess Conrad and Colonel Cyril. [A'Yang is like me, but he is the sun.]
"Stupid Moon, why don't you let him take a seat first? Not only does he not understand what you are saying, his memories aren't completely back yet," Chaos, who appeared under the silver leaf tree, said.
Lord Chaos appeared in this domain as well. He prepared a table of dessert and milk tea for them. As for why he can enter Queen Titania's soul domain, it is simply because they are one person and share the same place.
[Lord Chaos!]
System Yue happily flies towards Chaos, unlike his vigilance from before. He felt close to this person, who is also a part of Lord Hei, though he was a bit rebellious. In the end, all of them had a connection to Lord Hei and were closer to each other than the others.
Queen Titania decides this man is not dangerous, as he can feel his aura coming from him even though he can't explain why. He joined them at the table, despite his confusion
"Who are you? Why can you enter my soul domain?" The Zerg Queen asked
Lord Chaos smiled mischievously and said, "I am your soulmate."
Pfft! Choke. Cough. Cough. Ha-haha
System Yue, who was drinking his milk tea, splurted what he was sipping just now and choked on the spot. The milk tea wasn't spilled, as it was frozen in the air and thrown out somewhere. But Queen Titania knew that this man was lying based on that silly moon's reaction. Even though they haven't spent too much time together, he has already regarded that thing as something that couldn't lie.
Lord Chaos frowned. "That's disgusting, Yue!"
[S-Sorry. Lord Chaos' joke didn't seem funny, and I choked, almost dying on the spot.] System Yue said. [Who would say you are the soul mate of your own self? Are you a narcissist, Lord Chaos?]
The stupid moon who couldn't control his mouth was slapped away by Lord Chaos. No one would be happy to be called a narcissist, especially if they aren't one themselves.
Lord Chaos said, "Who the hell are you calling a narcissist?! Stupid brat!"
On the other hand, Queen Titania was shocked by what he heard. He looked at the man before him in disbelief.
"You... you are me?" The Zerg Queen asked with incredulity painted on his face.
