"Pfft! Why do we have to believe the words that leave your mouth?" Kirah argued.
"My master is speaking the truth." Yuri spoke in, "When I first arrived here, the demons from Fiona did come in an attempt to register master's village".
"Register?" Selfy asked.
"If every kingdom has its cities, towns, and any other villages registered in the kingdom's record, That was the king's way of securing the future, if he had every village registered under him, getting people to recognize it as a sovereign state that his owned by him would be easier, regardless if you witches"
"Although this method is mostly used when two Kingdoms are at war, and the other Kingdom is determined to have the losing Kingdom for Itself," Sato explained to them.
"If that was the case, how come he hasn't done so, why was it that it was when you arrived that all these started happening? Don't think you can just manipulate your way out of here." Kirah commented again.
Sato sighed in response to her words, "You guys are naive, do you have any idea how many Kingdoms have the villages here registered in their kingdom's record?... Why do you think they fought wars? Maybe you haven't noticed, but the Valkyries staying here have also helped in keeping outside kingdoms away".
"You've met the valkyries?" Ava asked.
"Met them? We are both aiming for the downfall of Fiona," Sato responded.
The witches went quiet and looked at each other for a while.
"He's right, we have been rather irresponsible toward the forest." Terafona admitted.
"Tera!" Kirah exclaimed.
"You agree with this madman?" Ava asked, glancing at Terafona.
"Every word that left his mouth has been the absolute truth… for the most part at least." Terafona replied, "And if you think about it, we only cared about what happens in the forest and nothing about the outside".
'She can tell when a person lies?!' Sato yelled in his mind but he still kept a calm expression on the outside.
"Okay then, that's not a problem, if anyone tries to intervene with the forest then we'll bring them down by ourselves, we don't need his help." Ava hinted again.
"For a beautiful woman, you sure are stupid," Sato insulted.
"That's it!"
Before Ava could pull out her sword all the way, Sato whooshed away from where he sat and appeared behind Ava.
Her eyes widened in shock when Sato held her hand from behind before pushing the sword back in, "You just love aiming your sword at people".
Feeling startled, Ava jumped away from Sato and landed a bit far from him, 'What was that just now?' Ava thought to herself.
The rest of the witches were on their chairs, getting ready to attack even though their faces were saying otherwise.
"These memories…. Who the hell are you?" Ava yelled, tears falling from her eyes as she gripped her sword while her hands shook.
Sato looked at her feeling confused, he couldn't help but recollect if he accidentally crushed her hand or something.
"Ava? What's the matter?" Selfy stood up from her chair and knelt in front of Ava to understand what was happening to her.
As soon as she got close, Ava launched herself onto Selfy, "He…He made me remember the Successor." She sobbed.
All the witches in the room suddenly gasped in surprise. Kirah yanked up from her chair, "Ava, don't say such stupid things… we get it you felt scared-".
"I'm not making this up!" Ava shouted, she stood up and began cleaning the tears from her eyes, "I really did see the Successor when he touched me".
"Impossible." Levia muttered, staring at Sato in disbelief.
Yuri was busy sending signals to Sato, but Sato himself was still confused about what was going on.
"Tera, who the hell is this guy?!" Ava questioned.
Terafona replied, with her umbrella still over her head, "Why don't you touch him again and find out for yourself".
Ava grunted, staring at Sato before she began to stroll toward him. She came to a stop in front of him and uttered, "Give me your hands".
"What for?".
Ava's eyebrows twitched in anger, "Please give me your hands." She repeated forcefully.
pαndα-noνɐ1,сoМ 'Why do they all look like they are expecting some miracle to happen?' Sato thought to himself before he lengthened his right hand toward Ava.
Ava gulped down her saliva before she slowly touched Sato's hand and almost instantly, tears fell from her eyes again.
[Flashback]
Little Ava was running around on the green grass, playing with her other little witch sisters, while a man dressed in a black coat sat on a rock and watched them.
All of a sudden, Ava fell and began crying, which caused the remaining small witches to blame each other for it.
"Tera! You told her to fall so she did, Meanie!" Little Kirah commented, pointing at Little Terafona.
"I did not." Terafona defended herself.
"Did too!"
Kirah and Terafona began arguing, but the tension was cut when Selfy suddenly hinted, "Look, Papa's coming!".
All the girls immediately ran toward the man, including Ava, even though she still had tears in her eyes.
"Papa!" Levia hugged the man's leg before her sisters could join in.
The man sat down on the floor, with all the small witches hugging a part of his body while Ava just stood and watched.
"Ava, what's wrong?" The man's ominous voice echoed.
"Uhn hmm." Ava shook her head with a smile, but tears were still rolling down her cheeks.
The man smiled, "Come here." He said, "Let me tell you a story, but sad girls won't get to hear me tell it".
Hearing this, Ava immediately cleaned her eyes and sat down in the middle of the man, shaking her legs while she waited for the man to tell the story.
"Papa, I don't want to hear about the scary one." Selfy uttered.
"Yeah… I don't like the white man." Levia added.
The man chuckled, "Don't worry, this is not about the scary man or the devil, this is about papa and how papa found you beautiful girls".
