Chapter 415 - Creige
Angelica looked around at the white cloudy landscape and let out a sigh. "Handsome Papa! I know you are there…"
"As expected of Angelica, you have the best perception." Creige smiled as he appeared as a projection in front of Angelica.
"Why did you send me here? And is Mama and my sisters okay?" Angelica, who was usually the one who worried the most at this moment, was very calm.
"Your mom is going crazy looking for you girls, and Rain is having a hard time dealing with the situation as for your sister Yana… I think I should have made her trial harder. As for the reason why I sent you girls away, it is so you can grow stronger. Your mother and I will not always be there. Your mother has to go to higher realms and needs to grow stronger as well. I know you girls love your mother very much, but she is spoiling you three, way too much. Without hardships, there will be no growth." Creige paused as he thought for a moment.
"Come sit, as your father, I will tell you something that even your mother does not know." Creige sat down on the cloud and waved Angelica over. She walked over and sat down in his lap.
"Handsome Papa, just so you know, when you tell Mama about this, she will be mad at you." Angelica knew her mother very well. She knows her mama will be upset with her handsome papa when she finds out what he did. However, she was also sure that this anger would not last long. But she would not tell her handsome papa that.
"Mmm… I know. I am ready to be beaten by her. But this needed to happen. Otherwise, you girls would be sheltered for the rest of your lives, not understanding the hardships of the world or how to deal with hardships when you finally ventured out on your own.
"But one thing you need to understand, Angelica, is that the place your Mama has to go is not a place where kindness will get you anywhere. Even now, in the realm of gods, kindness can still be found and not taken advantage of. But the place beyond the eighteen levels is a place where evil roams freely and a place where bloodshed is a normal occurrence.
"Mass battles can happen at any time. Powerful beings may wipe out a city just because they are bored. It is a place where the wrong move can get you killed. Your mother has a good mindset, but her strength is not enough. As your mother rises from being a god to a high god, supreme god, god king, and then breaks the chains of this realm and advances to finally becoming Voidling, she will grow stronger with each stage. Her strength when she finally reaches what we know of as the highest realm will be unparalleled.
"There are many different realms. You start off as a Mortal, then rise up to become a God. From there, you become a Void. After that are the Ascended, Immortals, Seekers, and many more realms.
"Each of these realms becomes a testing ground that your mother must face. And as she climbs, I, as her husband, will need to go with her. I will accompany her every step of the way, no matter how long it takes. I will watch her grow one step at a time. I love you girls as well, but your paths in life may change, and most likely, at some point, you will settle down. But those paths will never start if your mother is sheltering you. So even if your mother gets mad at me and does not speak to me for thousands of years for what I am doing today, I will still stay by her side and watch her grow." Creige explained.
"Handsome Papa, where are you really from?" Angelica could tell her handsome papa was not from any of the eighteen realms. It seems he was from that higher plane he talked about.
"Mmm… I will tell you, but you must keep this all a secret. I am not ready to tell your mother just yet." Creige said as he leaned down and kissed the top of Angelica's head.
"Mmm… I promise. I won't tell Mama or my sisters." Angelica readily promised.
"I come from a place above the eighteen levels. The realm I am from is called the sea of stars. It is a very dangerous place." Creige answered.
"Then why was handsome papa in the mortal realm?" Angelica was confused. If her handsome papa was so strong, why was he in the mortal realm?
Creige smiled and ruffled Angelica's hair, causing her to smack his hand away. "For your mother, of course. I spent many thousands of years searching for her. Only your mother was fit to become my wife, whether it is this lifetime or the next. She will always be my only one."
"Make sure you tell Mama some day." Angelica said as she jumped up onto her feet. She put her hands behind her back and spun on her heel to look at Creige. "I should start this trial then. Make sure you check on Rain next. She may seem strong, but she is very timid, and she is scared of Mama leaving us again. I worry about her the most."
"I will. Angelica, be careful. These trials are much harder than they seem. Take your time and slowly grow. Only then will you be able to look towards the future and forge your own paths." Creige said as his body slowly began to disappear. But just before he did, Angelica heard him say: "Don't worry about dying. I will never let it happen…"
Angelica watched as her handsome papa disappeared and tears began to form in her eyes. She wiped her eyes and bit her lip as she mumbled to herself: "Handsome Papa, did you know I hate being left alone as well…"

The realm of gods…
"So it was you!" Camlia looked at the handsome man in front of her. Her brow furrowed, and her arm crossed across her chest.
"Mm… But Camlia, you should know better than anyone what kind of place the sea of stars is." Creige said with a smile as he sat down on a chair.
Camlia brow furrowed even more as she stared at Criege. She only saw Creige smile before a familiar figure flashed before her eyes. Only then did her eyes widen in shock. "You!?"
