Chapter 122:Past
I was happy with all of your answers.
And one more question, and this was the last.
What would you do if I told you he would never…
Before she could complete her words.
Crack.
The space around her shattered.
Not slowly.
Not gently.
It broke like glass.
Time stopped.
Everything froze.
Seraphina.
Celestia.
Freya.
Maya.
All of them froze in place.
Even the wind stopped.
Even the dust in the air stopped moving.
Duskwild itself froze.
Silence.
Absolute silence.
And then a portal opened.
From the portal, two figures emerged.
They were Destruction and Protection.
The destruction was covered in black that no light could escape from him.
His eyes were as black as a black hole that devoured everything, and from his
expression anyone could tell he was unhappy.
While Protection was covered in yellow light that protected both darkness and light.
His eyes were shining.
Creation was shocked.
She did not know why they both came.
But one thing was certain, that the reason was definitely important.
And she was afraid that Protection would scold her for how reckless she was.
"I can explain that…"
Destruction interrupted.
He was in a bad mood.
First, he was humiliated by Fate.
Then Creation.
And now…
"This is not the time for your explanation."
"We have to move."
"Why?"
Creation said with curiosity.
She knew Destruction would not come here to see Ank and neither had the courage to stop her.
So why?
These were the questions in her mind.
"Don't ask me."
"Ask Protection, he forced me to come here."
Destruction replied, irritation leaking from his voice.
"Protection?"
Creation said, looking at him.
But Protection did not reply.
He ignored Creation.
He knew Creation was childish.
And broke many laws of the Universe to help Ank.
But as Ank's mother,
She had many privileges.
And the Universe would also forgive her.
How the Universe would punish her m..
His thoughts were interrupted when he saw the faces of all the girls.
Interesting.
"So they are all here."
He was surprised.
He only knew about Maya.
But seeing Seraphina, Celestia, and Freya…
Especially Freya…
He moved toward them.
And stopped at some distance.
Protection first glared at Maya.
And immediately understood why she had forced Ank to be with Maya.
"I owe you an apology, Maya."
Protection said in his mind.
"If I had been able to interfere that day…"
"You would.."
"This is my only mistake that I cannot undo."
And then Freya.
"So you also came for him."
"If any gods knew who you were, they would descend on Duskwild."
"Even if they had to break the laws of the Universe."
"And…"
"Still, you love him."
"He was an idiot to ignore you."
"Shit."
"Ank, you are so lucky."
"I hope this time you will find the happiness you have been searching for… for eternity."
"Freya, once I told you that Ank would never see you."
"I take my words back."
"You are more perfect for him than her."
And lastly, he looked at Celestia and Seraphina.
"I was also surprised by both of you."
His voice softened slightly.
"Two little girls…"
"Who always stayed around him…"
"Messing with him."
"And now…"
He did not complete his sentence.
Time passed.
Silence followed.
Creation shouted,
"Protection?"
But Protection did not reply.
He moved toward Ank.
He looked at Ank's face and smiled.
"Ank, I will say it again, you are very lucky."
"So many wonderful girls surround you."
"But remember, this time you cannot lose anyone."
"These girls have suffered so much for this moment."
"I am happy for you but also sad."
"You and I both know you will never give
them the place you gave her."
Her image was still fresh in his mind.
How you destroyed everything for her.
Even I could not stop you.
"Still, I hope you never remember her."
"It would destroy you again."
"Creation."
Creation was shocked hearing her name.
"Creation," Protection said again.
"I did not want to know that you knew about them."
"But at least you should have told me about Freya."
"If I had known, I would have forced him to marry Freya."
"This is the least I could do for her after her sacrifice."
"I just thought.."
"Stop! This nonsense."
"We have more important matters to solve."
Destruction shouted.
He was at his limit.
He hated Ank.
But Freya was someone he respected.
And knowing what she became because of Ank…
She had the choice to become a being that surpassed everyone.
But what she chose was love.
The love that she never achieved.
Until…
Ank was corrupted.
This thought was useless.
"Protection, you have already wasted too much time."
Protection looked at Destruction and then at Ank.
"Goodbye."
"In the future, we will meet again."
"And fight, as we always do."
"Creation, we have an issue that we must solve at any cost."
"What?"
"Death is coming for Ank."
"She is furious with him."
"What?!"
Creation shouted in fear.
She knew Death had the power to kill Ank.
Even she could not revive him.
"What about the Universe?"
"Why is it not stopping her?"
This was the first question in her mind.
"I do not know."
"But we have to stop her."
"So, are you ready?"
"Yes."
Creation replied and then asked,
"What about Destruction?"
Destruction looked irritated.
"I do not have a choice."
"Protection gave me a tempting offer that I could not ignore."
"So I will support both of you."
"And Creation…"
"You cannot tell them about Ank's history."
"This is Ank's choice."
"Not yours."
Destruction said and vanished.
Now he was in front of Death.
"I also agree with Destruction."
"It is his choice, not yours."
"And I am waiting."
Protection also vanished.
"Shit."
"First Fate."
"Now Death."
"How does my son attract so much trouble?"
"Especially females."
Creation raised her hands.
From that moment, Duskwild's time resumed.
"So where we are."
"Yes, I was about to tell you about Ank's
history."
"But I have another idea."
"You have two options."
"You can ask Ank's history from me."
"Or you can wait for Ank to tell you himself."
"What is your opinion?"
Seraphina, Celestia, Freya, and even Maya said in unison,
"We prefer Ank to tell us about himself."
"I knew you would choose the best option."
"Now I am leaving."
"But remember to take care of Ank."
"He is in his weakest state."
"Maya and Freya, do not fight."
"You know what me and Ank would do."
"Seraphina, good luck."
"I know you will hear your own voice."
"And lastly, Celestia…"
"I am very happy to meet you."
"Our first meeting was not good."
"But this time we have a good start."
And slowly, she vanished.
She was now in front of Death.
"First meeting?"
Question marks appeared on Celestia's
face.
But suddenly.
From above, Commander Elyn landed.
"Princess Seraphina, the Emperor wants to see all of you."
"Yes."
"We are coming."
