After Lory finally calmed down Zhao Li Xin helped her sit down and poured Lory some hot tea then Zhao Li Xin turned to Girsha "Tell me more about this... Vessel"

"What I'm a vessel is not difficult to say by many stories that if a vessel must be as strong as the entity that will be possessed, so in my opinion because you are the descendant of the first King in this world, your body will be stronger than other normal humans so you will become a vessel. strongest that Lazarus can have" said Girsha.

"But Lazarus needs my approval to have me" Zhao Li Xin found it very troublesome, how could Lazarus think he would just give up his body well maybe that was possible in the past but now that he met Lory it became impossible, Zhao Li Xin didn't could imagine he would leave Lory for whatever reason.

"Yes, once upon a time when the universe was still young, a powerful entity was born from the emptiness and they were called God later the gods got bored so each of them created a world according to their own ideal but then they were jealous of each other's creations, just like a kid who got jealous with his friends toy, later on, pushed by jealousy, hatred, and greed The God fought at each other they want to seize and destroy the other world belonging to other Gods, they created First Kinds, demi-human, and beast to bring terror and pain to the other world it didn't take long to turned some of the Gods into a dark entity called Demon" Girsha spoke in a calm tone while Mong Ki, Mong Yi, and Jiang Jin Wei listened with a dumbfounded expression.

Lory put his teacup slowly on the table his expression returned to normal, he continued Girsha's story "When the universe was almost destroyed some of the remaining gods gathered, they decided to forget their differences in order to maintain the life that was left, for that first they also work together to kill the demons after the demons are destroyed they set a rule that binds all creatures including the gods and that rule is not to allow gods to interfere in the affairs of beings outside the world that they made then they are also not allowed to interfere directly with human affairs either. For the God to connect to the human world a bridge was created"

"The first King" Zhao Li Xin muttered.

Lory nods "In the midst of a sea of ??people one will be chosen and he becomes the vessel of the God, they were given immense power to protect the world from anything and the ability to accept the God's message that most of the time will be conveyed through vision like dream, Unfortunately, if The first King strong enough as the God's vessel they will strong enough to be The Demon vessel as well"

"You think Lazarus wants to make me a vessel?" Zhao Li Xin had some doubts, what would Lazarus do when he didn't agree with him? would he leave everything he had done in this world and move to another world again to find another vessel? That sounds stupid.

"Even though it's just speculation but that's the best we can come up with…. at least so far," Girsha didn't sure either.

Lory stared at the half-empty teacup while subconsciously clenching her fists until her knuckles turned white, deep down she was cursing herself as she felt hit the wall again. Lory hated the feeling when one question led to another question without leaving a clear answer, Lory wondered how long she had been doing this, it felt like there was no end to it.

Meanwhile, Zhao Li Xin continued his conversation with Girsha, "Then what if that Lao woman turned back time, would there be big consequences for what she did?"

Girsha widened his round green eyes "Of course, changing destiny is a big sin the same as Lory did, but in my opinion, motivation will determine the outcome of their action"

"Motivation?" Zhao Li Xin asked again.

"For example stealing, which is worse? people, who steal to enrich themselves with people who steal to help others in need? funny how the difference between good and evil is paper-thin, same bad deed but different results just look what happen to Lory and Lao Min Na which one is in the worst situation"

'',

Mong Yi suddenly asked, "Lord Girsha, may I ask how strong is Lao Min Na now?"

Girsha tilted his head as she pondered then his tone became heavy "she should have cultivator strength but she also had a Gifted power like Lory but what power Lazarus bestowed on her, I do not know"

Once again there was a long silence between them, it was hard enough to fight a cultivator now they had to fight someone with the same type of power as Lory which they didn't have enough experience to face against it hence their expression become tensed.

Lory could see they were worried but that was to be expected besides everyone would be worried if fighting something they didn't know, even though Lory had shown how her powers worked but the actual battle would be very different after all they didn't know what kind of power that Lao Min Na had and Lory had actually felt a bit worried about it though she did not show it.

"Don't worry you'll be fine" Lory reassured them "I know your strength and I'm not lying when I say your strength can match the strength of the gifted people in my world, after all, any strength must have a weak point that you need to pay attention to"

"We listen to the teachings of the young madam" brothers Mong and Jiang Jin Wei simultaneously bowed respectfully.

"Milord do we need to worry Lao Min Na has more information than we have" Jiang Jin Wei's eyebrows knitted closely with deep concern.

Zhao Li Xin sighed heavily he can't deny that Lao Min Na has the upper hand by knowing about the future but the future must change tremendously because of Lory's existence so he doesn't have to worry too much, on the other hand, Lazarus existence was far more concerning.

"There's nothing we could do other than raised our guard, increased your cultivation, and prepared for any circumstances that might happen therefore I will allow everyone to use whatever resource we have to increase our strength, any weapon, any medicine, talisman, and everything else other than that...we stick to the plan, destroy heaven's Gate sect - took the Crimson Lightning Sword and killed that Lao woman and Lazarus...in order" Zhao Li Xin waved his hands.

"Yes Milord!" they answer in tunes.

Amidst the frozen ground, the cold wind and snow howled like a deafening scream, a woman walking with slow steps walking in the snow without wearing a light white dress, her silver hair fluttered in the strong wind but her expression didn't show any coldness even though the snow was clinging to her dress and clothes. his hair, his cold eyes reminiscent of the glaciers that had formed in the snow over the years.

The woman walked into a cave in front of the cave stood a boy with a pale face and black hair as black as ink, there was inexplicable emotion filled the boy's eyes that did not match his age.

"Thea..." He softly called her.

Arthea ignore the boy's call and walked past him as if he wasn't there, the boy didn't angry at Arthea's cold behavior he just looked down dejectedly but he quickly collected himself and then followed Arthea but keep his distance from her so he will not upset her further.

As she walk Arthea opened her palm suddenly blue flower petals flew from her hands and twirl in the air then illuminated the cave with a bright blue light, immediately they caught the sight of a woman trapped inside an ice wall, the woman looks like she was sleeping peacefully.

"It's safe, you don't have to worry," the boy said.

"I'm not worried," Arthea said in a monotone voice.

just like that, the conversation was cut off and they were silent for a while then the boy asked "When are you going to bring her out?"

"Soon..." Arthea replied while her gaze continued to linger on the person sleeping on the ice.

The boy was stunned for a moment, then face clouded with a mixture of pain and sadness, the boy lowered his head to hide his emotion and answer weakly "I see..."

Arthea finally looked away from the woman behind the ice and then turned to the boy standing behind her "He never knows?"

The boy smiled dryly, "I don't think he expected… he might think you were deliberately hiding your identity from Lucient."

"He wasn't completely wrong..." There was longing and bitterness on Arthea's face and the boy looked at her with extreme guilt.

"Are you still blaming yourself?"

Arthea's gray eyes glanced at him and away again, There's no need for words for the boy to know the answer. The boy gritted his teeth trying to suppress the anger that surged within him followed by a feeling of helplessness and remorse.

He didn't know how or when things went so wrong, at first it was just a chance encounter between two lonely people who comforted each other and then became friends since when that innocent feeling turned into an obsession, jealousy, and anger that brought tragedy to the whole world.

"Why are you torturing yourself, haven't you paid enough, haven't you suffered enough?" The boy's eyes filled with tears, "You've cursed yourself with immortality watching everyone you care die before you make you experience loneliness, guilt, and sadness for thousands of years, isn't that enough to pay for your sins?!"

Unbeknownst to everyone understanding the Seeress's immortality is not due to the consequences of her Gift but the seeress's own choice to atone for her sins, no one knows but two people who are facing each other at this time.

"It will be enough when I stop Lazarus" Arthea said earnestly.

The boy looked at him in pain, "The consequences will be too great for you"

Arthea cast her eyes on the woman who was sleeping within the ice wall, a distant smile bloomed on her face then slowly she turned her gaze to the boy, her expression was complicated then she say to him: "The same to you"
