Eugene looked at Archduke, Samuel, and Michael sitting in front of him. He knows that called Archduke right now in the church is risky. They have to deal with orcs and if the situation goes out of hand, people won’t hesitate to point fingers on the Goddess Power.
“Pope knows about everything.”; Eugene informed them. Everyone stiffened, but soon they stood up in a rage.
“YOU BASTARD, YOU TOLD HIM!!”; Samuel shouted.
“OF COURSE NOT. WHY WOULD I DO THAT!!?”; Eugene shouted.
“So, how did he know?”; Michael questioned.
“Just how he knew I became the Archbishop for selfish reasons. I don’t know. But that is not important.”; Eugene said.
“And what is important?”; Anderson questioned. He cannot understand how can he take everything so lightly? A person outside of them knows about Aahana’s existence.
“He informed me that by calling Aahana here we have challenged Goddess and Destiny. Goddess does not control Destiny and Destiny does not take the challenges lightly. He said when Destiny interferes, the outcome is very good. He said that whatever we know will change because the timeline has completely changed.”; Eugene informed them.
“WHAT!!?”; Anderson questioned. If that is true, then they do not actually know the future. The events, people and everything will change.
“But Aahana was already with us when the events occurred, shouldn’t her absence make the timeline different. And now that she is here, it should flow the same way it did.”; Samuel questioned.
“No.”; Michael answered, making everyone look at him.
“It would have been same if she was the same. Everything changed when she entered here because she is not born here, she has chosen different paths and she is not the meek girl we knew.”; Michael answered.
“What does it have to do with anything? The person is here, the flow should return.”; Samuel said.
Michael shook his head.
“Think the world as the human body and time as immune system. Immune system would attack any substance coming from out. Similarly, Aahana and Aarav are the substance coming from out. And maybe these Orcs are the side effects of the foreign substance. And Pope means to say that Destiny will work as the Immune system to erase the foreign substance meaning Aahana and Aarav.”; Michael said.
“Wait, then if it is all about ‘foreign substance’ then it should only be Aarav because Aahana already had lived here for three lives.”; Anderson said.
“No”; Eugene answered.
“That is what Pope wanted to tell me. She does not belong here because her soul existence has been erased from the world.”; Eugene answered.
“What does that supposed to mean?”; Samuel questioned.
“It means that every timeline she died in has been erased, destroyed or restarted. So, there is no record of her ever existing here in this world. Her soul is foreign.” Eugene continued.
“Does that mean we have put her in some life threating situation, that we don’t fully understand ourselves.”; Anderson summarized.
“It seems like it, father.”; Michael answered, as the three looked at him with widened eyes.

Aahana walked outside the shop as the carriage pulled up. Aarav looked out; seeing her, he gestured her to get in.
She sat down and looked at Aarav, who was frowning.
“Take us to real estate agent”; Aahana commanded. Aarav looked at her with questioning eyes as she smiled and pulled out a bag of gold coins.
“You got the salary.”; Aarav asked. This is too quick, she just worked for a day.
“No, it seems like I would get tips for every sale and the lady that came in today gave me hundred gold coins as a tip. Can you imagine? But that means that we can actually buy a house now.”; Aahana said with a smirk. Aarav nodded and smiled.
“But we have to find a house close to the market side.”; Aahana said. Aarav nodded, of course; he got in the academy and she has a job here.
“I got in academy. I got a full scholarship and I will be a direct disciple of the head doctor.”; Aarav informed.
“DAMN!!”; Aahana said.
“I aced the entrance test, which was supposed to be hard.”; Aarav said, making Aahana chuckle. They both were so into talking that they did not notice that someone was looking at them. Kez’s eyes widened when he saw the carriage. So, they are the nephew and niece that Archduke is trying to protect. He narrowed his eyes at the siblings; he has never seen such skin colour. Suddenly his eyes widened, remembering the Goddess Power.
“No, it can’t be, can it be?”; Kez questioned himself. He chuckled a little and then smirked before going away. He cannot believe it; what if he is right? Then they would just need these siblings and the world to be bowing down. Kez vanished into thin air.

Ezekiel handed a letter to Lewis, who bowed down and went out. It is time to make people aware that Imperial family is not a joke. Just because they love peaceful life and have given kingdoms for people to govern does not mean that they cannot take it away.
He looked outside at the clear sky. He chuckled, remembering Aahana. She is so oblivious; he loves it. It will be fun to meet her again. He has to know her better to know if she is truly what he thinks she is. The mana core she had can be an unlimited source of energy of everyone in a kingdom. If she actually can channel the power, she will be the most powerful person in this world. She will never age and can control everything.
Yet he sensed a lock. He sensed something powerful blocking and protecting her body from the sudden eruption of power. He knows it was the Goddess power he has sensed, but what if it is something more? He has to investigate Archduke family all over again.
