Chapter One Hundred Sixty-Nine:
'Where am I?' I asked through my mind.
"You're finally awake." Suddenly a familiar voice speaks to me.
"You." I answered. "What am I doing here? Shouldn't I be gone?"
"Goddess Aella, you were long gone but because of one great wish coming from our God Father. He asks me to help you to give you another chance."
"What are you talking about God Folkvar?"
"You'll be reincarnated as a Witch."
"Me? Why?"
"To save God Hunapo." I look at him and couldn't say a word. "You are the only one Goddess Shirina can count on when she breaks the link between the two of them but because of your return, you will lose all your memories and will only return when the link between the twins is completely severed. And I know you love God Hunapo very much and you also want to save him no matter what, am I right?"
No doubt I answered. "Yes! I love him so much I can do anything just to save him."
Present…
Merwa Mountain
"Pagkana-yonsisde an koa. Masasai ok is Haimon tapunpag as underworld." Ansel suddenly announced to Rishna that surprised her.
"What!"
"You heard it right, Rishna. I'll bring him with me."
"Do you know what you are saying?" Rishna seriously answered.
"Yes. And don't worry, dihin ok yasi yinkasasapa as kabang in yantamaka."
"Noa ngba bisasanagpi om?" Rishna asked confuse.
"You will soon learn about it. But in the mean time, I need to go somewhere."
"Are you going home?"
"Not yet. I have some business that I need to finish." Ansel answered before vanishing.
Sky City
"Galtama ngan honnapa an nir nga pasmilu, Goddess Aella. Tamuska ak an?"
I turned around to meet the God of Life and Death, God Folkvar. "You were right, God Folkvar. It's been a long time."
"Call me Ansel. That is my name since I became a Warlock."
"Then, call me Medea."
"A Cunning Witch." He answered.
"Bisasama ngko mata ak as gayba an yoni." I agreed. "So, what is happening to me?" I directly asked him because after my memories returned, this is the first time he called upon me. I know and I remember he was the one who help me to be reincarnated but the reason, he was the only one knows about it.
"As you remember, you were reincarnated and as soon as the connection of the twins finally cuts off. Then, your memories from you past will be restored."
"But that doesn't include the real reason of my return and why I am back to his side." I replied. "Do you even know what I did just to help Kanik so he would know who the 'Maiden's Grail' is? I sacrifice three innocent lives, Ansel! And there's more to it!"
"That is what destined to happen and we cannot avoid it."
I stared at him for long time before answering. "Then, explain everything to me. What is the real reason why I'm reincarnated?"
"Is to, continue deceiving Kanik until Lady Shu Tokino save his soul."
"What?!"
"You heard it right, Medea." He replied. "And the reason why I didn't include our last conversation before letting you reincarnate. Is because I want you to be prepare." he seriously added.
"What are you talking about?"
"I know how much you love God Hunapo to the point of saving him out of the void where his father put him till eternity that causes your life to end, because of those two creatures inside the void used you as their sacrifice and escape from that nothingness. Yet, your love for him never been fade and for that simple reason, Father God helped your spirit to be save and bring you to me. Also, you were the only one that Goddess Shirina trusted, because she knew you can handle God Hunapo's temper. Which is why, you were chosen to be reincarnated."
"Okay, I understand it clearly. Then, why do I need to prepare myself? What is the condition you want me to do? And I think it isn't simple, am I right?"
"Indeed you're right. Now I let you know our last conversation, it's about an order that you'll be the one to kill him."
…
Reinhardt's House
"Aella!" Kanik immediately hugged me from the back when he saw me at the veranda.
"Kanik."
"You suddenly disappeared when I woke up so I immediately looked for you. Fortunately, you are still here." He tenderly explained.
How did Kanik become like this to me? And he even called me from my older name when I was a Goddess? That in fact when he doesn't remember me as Goddess Aella, he just used me whenever he felt lusted. But after saving him out of that darkness, he finally remembers me and now all he wanted me to do is never ever leave his side. Not knowing what Evil Khawar and Evil Corey did to me when I was about to save him out of the void.
Though, it isn't important right now. Knowing the past will just create more conflict, I rather not tell him and just let him know that I died because of saving him, nothing more. Also, right now, after talking to God Folkvar, I finally remembered the last memory that I badly wanted to know. As soon as his soul comes back, I need to kill him because that only ends the cycle of those two void brothers.
The void brothers connect their lives into him and now that his memories finally returned, soon enough. They will return and once again will deceive Kanik to do what they really wanted to do from the very beginning.
"Aella, what are you thinking about?" he suddenly breaks my thoughts.
"Oh, nothing." I said and smiled. "Let's head back inside and it's getting cold out here."
"Okay! Let's go." He agreed as he hold my hand.
…
Void
"Finally! We're back again." from the darkest of the darkness Evil Khawar finally came back to life. "And this time I won't let them win again!"
