Chapter 295: Planning Ahead
Kiliffia did not understand what love was, but she could feel that she did like Methie. Ever since that time he saved her, he had been beside her protecting her throughout the war. And even now, as they searched for her father, he was making sure she was well taken care of. She felt safe with him and more so as she leaned against him in his embrace. Even the kiss just now did not feel wrong. In fact, she enjoyed it and wished they could continue. But Methie stopped saying he did not wish to cross the line until they were married.
This was actually a relief to Kiliffia since she was not ready for that just yet. She wanted to get to know Methie slowly and cherish this new feeling that was blossoming inside her. Methie was the same. He wanted Kiliffia to fall in love with him but only on her own accord. If one day she decides she doesn"t want to be with him, he will step aside and allow her to follow her heart. Until then, he will spoil her and make sure she lives a happy life. Whatever she wants, he will give. That night, Kiliffia slept curled up in Methie"s embrace.
After having her head filled with billions of souls, Kana felt like her head was being hit by millions of hammers. "The feeling will soon disappear."
"Why? Why tell me all of this? Are you telling me the woman who raised me back then was not my true mother? Are you telling me I suffered for so long all because of you!? Do you think I will just accept all of this!?" Kana"s eyes were filled with tears. She was sad. She was angry, and more than anything, she wished to destroy the people who made her suffer. She spent ten years suffering from hunger. Only to find out her life was being controlled so she would suffer.
"It is our duty to make you understand where you come from and where you should be going. If you wish to take revenge on the wrongs of your previous life… Then you can only head to that place. But be warned, you will need to be powerful. Powerful enough to destroy anything with just a glance. Only then will you have a chance for revenge. My time is up. The remaining power I have has been used up. The souls I have given you will serve you as you conquer each realm and stand at their peaks as it was so deemed. The coming of the new scion is at hand." The old woman"s figure slowly faded away. Kana gritted her teeth as she shot forward and punched the dispersing image with everything she had. But she only ended up hitting air. Her body glowed, and before she knew it, she was back in the room she was in before.
Kana"s tears rolled down her cheeks as she felt a familiar smell and a warm body embrace her. She pushed her face into Creige"s chest and cried out her sorrows. She had never cried so hard in her entire life. She was crying for both her past self and her new self. Her previous life was unfair. It was all predetermined and controlled without her being able to do anything. Her death was inevitable. But the way she had died was just too cruel. The old lady from before showed no hint of remorse. It was as if she wanted Kana to get angry and storm up to the place she was talking about and rage a war. But Kana also wanted answers, so no matter what, she had to do as she was told. And this made her feel even more bitter.
Mel stood to the side, not saying a word. She knew now was not the time to be acting on her urges. Whatever had happened had really put Kana into deep sorrow. Criege held Kana in his arms. He could feel through their connection that Kana"s heart was in turmoil. He gently rubbed her back as she let it all out in his chest.
After about fifteen minutes, Kana finally raised her head. Her eyes red and puffy. She stood on her tiptoes and pushed her lips against Creige"s. She then backed away and took in a deep breath. "I know what I need to do from now on. Criege, let"s slowly build our family, and when I finally reach G.o.dhood, we will ascend together. But we will not stop there. Each realm will be filled with our sons and daughters. I plan to have our family clan based in every realm. A family lineage that will never die out. A family that will stand at the peak of each realm. Creige, I must reach a realm that no one has even heard about to find out about myself. Are you willing to follow me?"
Creige smiled and pulled Kana into his arms, and hugged her tight. "I will go where you go. If you die, I will die alongside you. Whatever you wish, I will try to hand it to you even if it is to rule over all."
"Hehe… Then we have a very long journey ahead." Kana said with a smile.
"Ahem… Although I like beautiful girls, I do not want to watch a scene where a beautiful girl and a disgusting man are being intimate, so can we return now? I have much to do." Mel suddenly spoke up, breaking the two"s moment.
Kana pursed her lips as she pulled out of Creig"s embrace. "Let"s go. We need to finish up here, and then we can go to the black tower."
With that, the three took to the air and flew back to Camlia. Who was waiting with a big grin on her face. Once Kana landed, Camlia threw herself into Kana"s embrace. "Little sister, you are really amazing. I can not thank you enough. Not only did you stop those darklings from breaking the barrier, but you also got rid of them completely. How did you do it?"
"Umm… I kinda took control of them… See…" Kana, with a thought summoned twenty darklings who stood at Kana"s side without moving. She only kept them out for a few seconds before returning them to the s.p.a.ce that the old woman created for them in her mind.
"This? How?" Camlia was confused as to how Kana was able to control so many Darklings.
"An old lady did it. I do not wish to talk about it right now though. At a later time when I can think about things more clearly I will explain it all."
