Chapter 622 Aidos IV (Evan’s POV End)
The distortion cleared up faster than the eye could see, and the space fabric returned to normal just as fast.
Not surprised at this, the person turned their gaze around, fixing it on the body of the Unconscious Kethryllia who was now lying on one of the beach chairs next to Vaeri.
"Kethy's unconscious? Why?"
"World Magic Spell Backlash…was a few seconds late."
Vaeri replied as she changed her outfit and laid down on the other Beach Chair, pouring herself a glass of cold wine from the portable fridge.
"Wasn't the plan for Lacertilia supposed to happen in 3? Or was it 4 years?"
Knowing that Kethryllia wasn't supposed to be using any World Magic spells for the next few years, the person asked Vaeri but the Peak Ranked demon shrugged as she also didn't know why the plan had been executed now.
Almost immediately, Thagol felt two heavy gazes bear down on his being, causing him to gulp loudly before beginning to give the answers to their unspoken questions.
After hearing the man's narration of the events, the Demon and her contractor in front of him seemed to understand the reason for Kethryllia's actions.
The older Keasatra walked up to their younger sister and shifted her red locks of hair behind her ears before speaking.
"Still, to think that Kolvar's son turned out to be one of the new Heroes. Surprises everywhere."
Vaeri didn't seem to particularly care if the Hero was the son of the Beast King or not, with more of the Demon's attention being on her contractors' experiment.
"How's your progress?"
"Bad. I seem to be missing something."
Casually, the Second Finger gathered spatial law energy around their hand and attempted to tear a rift in space. However, halfway through, the rift collapsed and bloomed into a spatial storm.
"As you can see, I still don't know what that 'something' is."
"…did you try including Time law energy?"
"I did, but it still collapsed."
Despite talking about something they had poured a lot of time and resources into; they didn't seem particularly bothered about it and instead had more of their attention on Kethryllia.
"Evan Eris, Laurene Hayes, and now, David Thancreed.
A lot of interesting characters have popped up since I last visited the Alpha continent. Maybe I should go there again soon."
Thagol knew how much of the Demonic Hand's plans would be disrupted if this person went to the Alpha Continent now, but the man was scared to even dare speak up without being spoken to, much less tell them NOT to go somewhere.
"I could use it as a Vacation; a break from trying to Achieve Transcendence for a while."
"Before you think about your vacation plans, have this first. Got it when I was in that Desert Country…that place was a lot bigger than I remembered."
Vaeri pulled out the accessory she had purchased when she was in Tarse and handed it to the Second Finger, who seemed quite pleased to receive the gift and pulled the demon into a hug faster than she could react.
Slowly, and trying not to draw any attention to himself, Thagol silently stepped back and disappeared into the sea of trees, trying to get as far as he could from the two beings who could be considered Aidos' 'Sixth Strongest'.
◇ ◇ ◇
Looking at that scene, I could honestly understand how Thagol felt, especially after seeing that person casually try to create a dimensional rift willy-nilly.
[This is why you Irregulars are…haaaa…] fr eeweb novel
Aidos heaved a sigh of exasperation, mainly because 'she' was the one who had to fix the space that had been damaged by all the spatial storms there.
[Always giving me so much work.]
The planetary consciousness grumbled while waving 'her' hands and dismissing the Video strip.
[You know why I showed you that, right?] 𝒻𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝑛ℴ𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝑚
"So that I shouldn't do anything that'd attract that person's attention?"
[Glad you're quick on the uptake.]
'She' revealed a light smile when she heard my answer, but I was sure that that smile would disappear when I spoke my next line.
"I plan to kill the Ninth Finger of the Demonic Hand though?"
[…]
And indeed, it did.
"When I return to my body, I'd track her location using my skill and then with the pretence of going to visit the 'Second Star General', I'd go over to the GEE and kill her.
Unfortunately, that's not a plan I can make changes to.
I'd rather eliminate the entire Ninth Division before the Demonic Hand can recover from the damages."
Aidos remained silent for a full minute even after my declaration and in the meantime, I enjoyed the tea 'she' had set out in front of me.
[Would you consider postp-]
"No."
I rejected 'her' proposal before 'she' could even finish asking it; and ignoring the frown that appeared on 'her' face, I continued speaking.
"I'd try my best to make sure it does not become public, but the Demonic Hand, most especially, the 'First Finger' would eventually find out that I'm responsible.
He'd still figure it out even though I intend to wipe out every single Demonic Hand member present there."
[…that's quite some confidence.]
Aidos probably knew the location where Maude was, and she knew how many Senior Members awaited me there, hence the reason why 'she' said that.
However, my confidence did not reduce, instead, it increased by the second.
"It seems that "Evan Eris's" body is slowly becoming "Evan Bourne's". The link should be more than 50% now, shouldn't it?"
[?!
You can feel the connection even while here? As expected of you.
However, you should know what it means for the connection to continuously become stronger, right?]
"I can make a fair guess."
Aidos twirled 'her' finger in the air, summoning wisps of a dark energy I recalled that Domnik Velak had used towards the end of his battle.
"The law of Death…"
[Indeed.
Your Spiritual Body has been separated from your material body for quite some time. It may have felt like just minutes to you but 'Time' as a law is messed up near my core so it passes differently here.
The exact difference is not important, just know that it has been long enough that if you were to remain here any longer, then the Law of Death would consider your body to be 'dead'.]
'She' causally explained while I looked down at my hands which had now become transparent and were slowly disappearing by the second.
Looking back up at Aidos, I decided to ask one last question.
Not about why 'she' had called Earth V a 'Replica' like I originally intended, but something else.
"Would you mind telling me exactly what 'Race' I'm really from?"
Hearing my question, Aidos displayed light 'surprise', with that expression quickly transforming into a smile as 'she' spoke.
[Unfortunately, I'm not the one who's meant to tell you that. Wouldn't want to go about messing with Fate after chiding you about doing that now, would I?]
"Is that so…Oh well.
Human or not, it doesn't change what I intend to do."
[Indeed. It shouldn't change anything.]
Those were the last words that I heard from Aidos as my vision completely blacked out.
