Ethan lived on earth for a couple of years alongside a beautiful angel that he named Aril and gave her the authority, Angel of Knowledge.
During the years that Ethan spent on Earth, he created many more monsters, ranging from the smallest dwarfs to the biggest orcs.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom But although those creations were great, there were some that took a special place in his heart. Ethan created three female goddesses and gave them the authorities, (Goddess of light, Goddess of battle, and goddess of darkness), and he didn't stop there, he also went on to create 5 witches, with the authorities, (Witch of destruction, witch of Sex, witch of rage, witch of bargain, witch of hunger).
Years grew longer and the demons on earth multiplied, to the point where it turned into a nation and Ethan was the emperor. The demons were hated by both the gods and humans, so it didn't take long for a war to begin, something Ethan detested.
He laid down on the grass and stared at the sky, his thoughts wandering around as he couldn't help but think back to his home and mother.
A sigh escaped Ethan's mouth before he uttered, "I wonder… are you still fighting up there? I miss you, Himiko, and the cave. But I guess there's not much I can do to help." He sighed again before he continued.
"I've improved though, I don't cry anymore, I don't call your name anymore, does that make you proud? I hope so… I would really just want to see you again".
As he spoke to himself, the three goddesses and five witches all showed up behind him, on their knees and head bowed.
"Successor, the humans have already begun their attacks." Afrina, the goddess of light informed. She had long red hair and was wearing warrior's armor, a red flower decorated the side of her hair.
"I guess, it's time then." Ethan uttered, standing up with a smile on his face as he looked at the witches and goddess, "Let's get this over with… and have a picnic once we are done".
[Flashback ends]
All the witches in the room sprung up from their chairs, their eyes widened in shock as they stared at one another. Every single thing Ava saw, the rest of the witches did.
All the witches in the room jolted upright from their chairs, their eyes widening in shock as they stared at each other. Ava's revelation shook them to the core, and they all knew the gravity of the situation. As they absorbed the truth, tears streamed down their faces, and they couldn't help but feel overwhelmed.
Ava weakly pulled on Sato's clothes, and as he looked down at her, he saw the tears falling from her eyes. Her expression was one of foreshadowed despair, and he knew that something was terribly wrong.
"We thought we wouldn't see you again!" Ava cried out, her words laced with raw emotion, as she sent a warm yet powerful hug to Sato. The rest of the witches, except Tarofona, ran toward Sato and embraced him, their sobs and wails of relief filling the room.
Sato could feel the weight of their emotions, the deep sense of fear and uncertainty that had gripped them all. But he was still unsure as to what exactly got into them.
'Aril… I can tell this is another thing you've hidden from me.' Sato muttered, looking at the tearful faces of the witches.
<< You never asked for it, I only answer questions you give me, and you specifically told me not to address every little detail>>
'You sneaky…'
Sato sighed, looking at Tarofona who was still seated in her chair, "Hey!" He called out, "You seem calm enough, can you explain what is going on here?".
Terofona hid her face with the red umbrella she was holding, "Y-You don't remember?" She asked with a shaky voice.
"Remember what?...".
After a while, the witches calmed down, they all sat down on their chairs and although they desperately wanted to speak about the past with Sato, they knew putting that aside to speak about the battle was their priority.
"So you really don't remember anything, Successor?" Ava asked, her eyes filled with anticipation as she looked at Sato.
"I don't even know what it is I'm supposed to be remembering, but you are not to call me that… Successor." Sato spoke as he looked at the witches, "Do I somehow resemble this Successor fella?".
A smile hit Kirah's face, "Well, I think it's better you don't remember… right?" She sought confirmation from her sisters.
"Right~, all you should know is we belong to you and vice versa…" Selfy smiled, her head resting on the table as she stared at Sato.
'I don't understand what the hell is going on, but it's safe to say, they are willing to help me…' A grin showed on Sato's face, "Okay then… What do I need to do to claim this forest for myself?." He asked, his hand resting under his jaw as he spoke.
"There's really nothing you need to do." Terofona uttered, "You are the Successor, what's ours yours, that includes the forest".
Sato stood up from his chair, "Wonderful, then let's work together to protect this village."
"Hai!" The witches stood up and uttered in unison with their heads bowed.
…..
The meeting with the witches took longer than Sato anticipated, but as soon as he was done, he took off straight to Nervek to take his place as the winner.
Yuri was seated beside Sato, looking at him back and forth and she was fighting the urge to ask him something.
"Yuri," Sato called out, with his tucked and eyes closed.
"H-Hai?".
"I can tell you want to ask me something, is it about how familiar the witches were with me?" He asked.
Yuri looked away, hiding the embarrassment on her face. She had been thinking about it ever since they left the Gateway, but she just didn't know how to ask.
Sato sighed, slowly lifting his eyes open, "I'm just as shocked as you, whatever the case, it looked like they knew me… and they called me Successor, they are the third people to call me that… it is worth looking into".
