The Princess And The Lord

When Cavio died Arthea returned to her people but she moved them to another place because their village was completely destroyed and everything around was polluted with black mana making it impossible to live anymore, therefore, Arthea used her power of precognition to find a better place and for less more than fifteen years he raised Demian but when Demian was fourteen years old Arthea left him but before he left he passed a fragment of her power to Demian as a prophetic dream so Demian could find the people who later become his true confidant, a loyal guards that will never betray him and most of all a friends that will follow him wherever he goes, it also the mark of the beginning of the first Archknight.

Not only that, but Arthea also gave his final order that the villagers never mentioned his name to the next generation because of his sin which resulted in the death of her older brother she wanted to completely erase her existance from the Lucient lineage.

Despite receiving strong protests from almost all of her people, especially Demian, Arthea insisted that this was an appropriate punishment for her even though her name will be forgotten but that doesn't mean she will not be part of the Lucient. She assured Demian that she would always watch over him and guide him always.

That day Arthea hugged Demian tightly like she hugged Cavio when she delivered her last farewell to her beloved brother.

Even though it was hard for her to leave because only then could she protect Demian as well as the people that trust her and also the world she loved so much

Arthea left Demian to find Zian who promised to help him live forever at least until Lazarus returns.

Zian took Arthea back to the crystal room where he helped her to make a replacement doll for Cavio but this time Zian told Arthea to make a doll for herself later on Zian transferred Arthea's soul into the doll, meanwhile, Arthea's real body was freeze inside the ice to stop her time and kept away somewhere safe, far away from Lazarus' knowledge.

At that moment Lady Lucient disappeared and the seeress was born.

Afterward, at the place where Lazarus was imprisoned, a temple was later built by Arthea and he named it Djevelskrin. from there, Arthea created a covenant of Druid priestess to guard the area around Djevelskrin and ensure that Djevelskrin's whereabouts are safe from prying eyes.

And for thousands of years, she made sure that Lazarus remain in his cage while watching her descendants come and go as years go by Arthea watched Demian finally die from old age, and later on, she watched Demian's Son die as well, and so her great-grandchildren, great-great-grandchildren every each of them unable to resist the times, Arthea thought one day she will be numbed by all the pained of watching her descendant die one after another but she was wrong.

Every time Arthea saw her descendants die, her heart would break into pieces as if she was alone in this world but every time a new Lucient was born, hope inevitably grew within her until it finally shattered again when she learned of their deaths and those feelings continued on and on again without no ends until it becomes her own hell.

"You understand now, Lory"

Lory was dumbfounded, she used to feel frustrated because there were so many unanswered questions but now after her questions were answered she didn't know how to digest them, should she be angry or sad? But of all the shocking news her father conveyed, the most shocking was that she and Arthea were related.

"So...what I've seen so far isn't his true form" Lory threw a random question.

Marcus shrugged nonchalantly "It's just an empty doll that she used as a vessel, but why she made it that way might be due to personal preference... or maybe she just doesn't care"

"If you knew everything all along, can you at least..." Lory cannot deny she was upset.

"No, not all of them, after I inherited the power of the God's Sword, I naturally inherited the most distinct memories from its previous owner but remember, I didn't inherit all of the seven god's swords, therefore I missed some detail here and there beside when it come to Lazarus information Cavio only knew what Arthea had shared with him."

"So...how did you..."

"Lahir sebagai 'anak Kekacauan' ibumu memiliki kemampuan untuk mengubah nasib orang-orang yang dia cintai, itu sedikit berbeda dengan kekuatan Arthea yang dapat memprediksi nasib siapa pun yang dia inginkan di dunia ini tetapi ibumu hanya dapat memprediksi sesuatu. yang memiliki hubungan yang jelas orang yang dia cintai selain ibumu juga harus membayar mahal atas apa yang dia lakukan dalam bentuk kematian yang lambat dan menyakitkan.

Needless to say, your mother doesn't care! especially when it comes to the safety of both of you" Marcus's expression was a mixture of bitterness and helplessness, "For a long time Lorenna was served with the pieces of past and future then she tried so hard to connect the puzzles and when she can't make sense of it she told me what she knew and so I tell her what I know from the memory left in the god's sword from there we both concluded everything related to Arthea then we went to find Arthea and from her, we have the complete story of what happened in the past, we even met Zian as well"

"The boy that helped me in oblivion was Zian, right?" Lory remembered the beautiful boy who was like a porcelain doll, she recalled the boy who appear to be cold but strangely very lonely and sad.

"Yup, Zian was also the one who helped me and your mother to preserve our souls by taking our souls to oblivion before our souls disappeared," said Marcus.

Lory face suddenly lit up, "So... If your will  soul remains why can you and mother ask Arthea to make another doll and ask Zian to insert your and mother's soul into the doll so you can live again!" Lory looked at her father expectantly.

Marcus's brows shoot up and the corners of his lips curl upward into a gentle smile, "Are we going to change the natural order for our selfish wish again?"

Lory pursed her lips feeling disappointed and despite knowing that was not the right thing to do, just because they were able to do so but they shouldn't or another chaos might happen again.

"The old dies and the young's carry on, that's how life should be and after everything that you had been through you should realize that death is not the end, it is just momentarily separation until our next reunion in immortality" Marcus solemn voice relaying comfort and promised that put an eased to Lory soul.

Lory glance at her father under her brows, and she agreed to this separation only temporarily.

Lory take a deep breath soon afterward the confusion, doubt, and shock that clouded her face were gradually swept away, Lory then looks at her father with firm determination.

"So, what should we do now?"

Marcus' expression brimmed with pride, and the daughter he raised never ceased to surprise him even though he set such high standards for her somehow she always managed to pass the bar with flying colors.

"Actually, we didn't do anything...at least not yet" Marcus rested his head on his fist casually.

"What are we waiting for….?" Lory narrowed her eyes wondering what her father's plan was.

"Do you know why when Lazarus destroyed all those worlds to make him stronger, he didn't destroy his own even though in that world he had almost no restriction to stop him because that was he came from?" His purple eyes stare back at her calm and unwavering.

"Uhm, maybe because he still has sentimental feelings toward his own world?" Lory was uncertain.

"Maybe, but according to Zian because that place even though it gives incredible strength but also makes him vulnerable because it's the only place he can be killed as the fallen god so he doesn't dare take that risk, however...at that time cavio used the seven gods swords not only managed to lock him for thousands of years but also destroying his main body, make him incomplete and nothing but a wandering soul that's why he needs a strong vessel that capable  containing not only his soul but also his abominable power and who is better than his own descendant Zhao Li Xin but ironically Zhao Li Xin is also the only person who can kill him so what will Lazarus do since he can't let him live nor he can't kill him?"

"He has to break him from the inside" Lory's eyes become cold as steel.

Marcus was satisfied by Lory's answer, he nod while slowly gathering his hands on the table and then making a steeple with his fingers with his eyes fixed on Lory "And he needed you to do that, it probably was then he realized your existence is more vital than he thought that's why he let you live this long in order to let Zhao Li Xin's feelings for you deepen and when Zhao Li Xin's thoughts were filled only you Lazarus will take you from him in the most brutal way he knew so by then not only Lazarus manage to corrupt that poor boy he will regain his powers by taking your soul and also avenge him, well, partially... but still, one shot kills not two but three birds"

Lory's face stiffened even though another question was an answer she didn't feel it, she finally confirmed that Lazarus' target from the start was Zhao Li Xin and she was just a secondary plan.

"So Lory, we can do anything until we know what would Zhao Li Xin do...if he going to fall on Lazarus temptatio or he remains true to his heart."

Her lips trembled even though she tried to stay calm but she could barely control her emotions she didn't notice her knuckles turning white from all her anxiety and fear combined together.

Then her eyes raised to her father "And if Li Xin fails?"

Marcus took a deep breath as his expression turn solemn "Then it will begin again, the tragedy that once happened will happen again..."
