I was walking in the crowded streets of the Elsiyara capital, under the gazes of both men and women.

On my right was a fit, petite woman with a medium chest that was hardly noticeable because of her dark red heresy uniform. She had short black hair that reached to her shoulder and blue eyes under her dropped eyes. She was looking directly in front of her with a cold expression with her arm linked to mine. Though calling cold would be wrong as there was no particular expression on her beautiful face.

On my left side was a woman that wasn't fit but not plump either, she was in the middle of both. She had a bigger chest than the petite woman and her casual clothes weren't even hiding it, but it wasn't bigger than the bishop of Ilelia. She had blonde hair that reached the middle of her back and deep blue eyes that were staring at me without blinking. She was a great beauty and it would be better if she didn't have dozens of strange traits.

Well, these women were Aria and Amelia. We were walking towards teleportation gates to teleport to the elven kingdom. I didn't even think about walking there as I knew that it would take a minimum of 9 months, which I was sure that it would be boring as hell.

pαndα-noνɐ1,сoМ That is why, I decided to use teleportation gates. They were fruits of the researcher mages, and it would be a sin to not use them, instead of walking like primitive humans.

Although we were walking like the said primitive humans, it had a reason.

I could easily teleport 3 of us to the teleportation gate but I chose to walk as I wanted to know the abilities of Amelia while walking like this with a casual chat.

"So, can you tell me how you knew my name and how you knew that we will meet again? You can choose to ignore my question as it is just my curiosity, nothing important." I asked while I continued to walk.

Amelia blinked her eyes and paused for a moment, then she said calmly:

"It is not too much of a problem as you are the saint of our lady, which means that you have my trust and belief in you."

"Is that so? Then I am grateful for your unconditional trust even before I prove myself to you." I said with a graceful but still cold smile and put my hand on my chest.

"I am sure you will prove yourself in no time as you are the one that has been chosen by our goddess. Don't worry and take your time." Amelia said with a big smile and pointed to me and Aria with a questioning look.

"But can I know the reason for your closeness with your maid? It seems a bit too close for a maid to her master." Amelia said curiously.

'Did she try to evade my question or is this just her curiosity acting?' I thought and decided to think about this question later as Amelia was waiting for my answer.

"What you said is mostly true but I don't see Aria as just my maid. She is my closest friend, secretary, confidant, and big sister. She always helps me and understands me perfectly. I am lucky to have her with me." I said with a warm smile and side-hugged Aria.

Aria's cheeks heated up considerably as I could see her blush completely, even her ears were red. Even if she knew that I didn't have affection for her, she was happy with my words.

'What a simple woman…' I thought and looked at Amelia.please visit

Amelia too had a different reaction to my words as there was a spark of envy in her eyes while looking at Aria.

'That is odd. Why is she even envious of Aria when she just properly met me?'

'Is she envious because I am her saint or something different that I don't know?' I thought and looked at Amelia again.

There I saw that she was completely normal, without any negative emotion in her eyes.

"Can you answer my question? Now that you got your answer." I said to Amelia without leaving Aria from my side hug.

Amelia nodded quietly without any objection and said:

"Do you know what is fate, my saint? What is probability? Why do people die in unexpected ways? Like why a person died from an arrow in the knee? Why did a 7th crystal knight die just because his feet slipped and fell to the ground?"

I answered after I was sure that Amelia wasn't going to continue to speak:

"I can't say that I entirely know about fate but I know why the other things you said did happen and will happen again."

I looked directly into Amelia's eyes.

"It is luck, nothing more and nothing less." I said with certainty.

Amelia nodded her head with a little bit of approval, then spoke with educating tone:

"You are partially right but this means you are also partially wrong. Luck plays a big role in these strange occurrences but the main culprit of these things is fate. Fate, which connects everything, isn't something a mortal like me can comprehend but I can glimpse at the strings of fate." She said with an even voice and continued after taking a deep breath.

"And one of the things that I did see was that my string was ending with you and had some connection to Aria. So I am very curious about this matter. Will I die while I am traveling with you or will you do something that connects me to you?" Amelia said then held my hands and brought her face excessively closer to mine that I could feel her breath on my skin.

"Are you curious too? Or are you planning to kill me? Or maybe I will kill you? Or maybe we will get married and this will tie our strings to each other? And why is your string of fate blue and feels cold?"
