Last time, Warrin read an important detail in the anthologies.
We need to get there before they come after you all. Juliet replied. Time froze. I see we have a time goddess who kept people alive. Serei replied. Juliet and Feray stud up and changed voices. I see they sent the small fry, Digitalis. Wolfbane replied. I wonder if they'll talk? Digitalis asked. Remember we can't torture mortals, Digitalis. Wolfbane replied. Digiatlis rolled her eyes. Capture everyone. Serei replied. I wouldn't try that if I were you. Wolfbane replied. Shiro Yukimoto has mercy for anyone who attacks he has ties with. Especially familiar bonds. Wolfbane replied. All the men were taken down. Shiro kicked down the door. What happened outside? Serei asked. We took care of your men. Shiro replied. Good work, it worked splendidly. Wolfbane replied. Digitalis kicked Serei out the door. She got up, a mysterious woman contained her. My lady, you called for me? Anaïs asked. Yes. Did you find Parini and document the information as I asked? Megumi asked. Yes, my lady. Anaïs replied. This is Anaïs Soliel, my Shield of Acedia. Megumi replied. She is one of the children of the Scarlet Night Calamity. Megumi replied. Hello everyone. Anaïs replied. How are the others holding up? Megumi asked? They are fighting off the demons. Anaïs replied. They are on the way here to retrieve the keys. I replied. Correct. Anaïs replied. Shiro, do what I originally asked of you! Selene yelled. You don't have to remind me, mad scientist! Shiro yelled. So the descendants of The Rose Maiden and the Demon General. To think the fallen maiden of Ithaca. Damien replied. Professor? I asked. It's been awhile, Kaoru. Damien yelled. He smiles. I shook my head. What are you planning? Ally asked. Easy, I want to see what happens to people born with abilities get their abilities extracted. What happens to the body? Damien asked. So your one of those twisted mortals? Tempus asked. Are they safe? Shiro asked. They are safe in my labyrinth. Tempus replied. Thank you Tempus. Shiro replied. I have no resentment towards the youth. Tempus replied. So this is the appearance you take on in this era, Lady Tempus? Damien asked. Nice try Damien. He is a god who toys with mortals. Tempus replied. Don't trust that man. He's one of the gods who possesses humans. Tempus replied. So he's a weirdo who borrows bodies over the years? I asked. Ewww. Ally replied. This is too easy. Damien replied. Damien gauge his hand through Megumi chest. Mom! I yelled. One down. The cube of creation in my hands. Damien replied. A demon appeared. So that's Metatron's Cube. Zelion replied. Damn threw Megumi to the ground. I punched Damien in face. I grabbed my mom. Please wake up mom! I yelled. Kaoru, I'm alive but I need you to protect my body for the time being. Megumi replied. We need to get back before the blessed artifact rejects. Zelion replied. Don't run after him. Shiro replied. He's correct. For now, we will lay low. Megumi replied. A younger woman from last time appeared. Removing the artifact just made my mortal body unstable. So I slipped out in time. Megumi replied. This is the Yumeko Tempus we were taught to arrest for a hefty bounty? Warrin asked. That is true but I became the villain of everyone's narrative because of my influence. Once this is over, I will clear my name. Megumi replied. Warrin reads and mentioned a day of no sun. Do they mean an eclipse? Warrin asked. The last time, it was an eclipse that turned into a sea of flames that engulfed the sky. Jacinta replied. The eclipse is in two days. I replied. I've never seen one. The whole world is able to see it. This eclipse is usually 30 minutes. Shiro replied. If the ritual is done, the world will merge with the underworld permanently. Mika replied. That's their plan. Juliet replied. Aiden. I need to summon him here. Megumi replied. What about dad? I asked. Everyone went into Tempus Realm. Megumi summoned Aiden as he sleep. She puts him in a guest room. As he was tucked under the comfy covers, opening his eyes to see a familiar face. Why do you the same as when we met? Aiden replied. He saw Megumi's injured body stuffed in the corner. Aiden jumped down and grabbed Megumi's body. Aiden cries. Megumi puts her arms around Aiden's neck. My body is healing from the attack. What do you mean? Aiden asked. Tempus walks into the guest room. What you are witnessing is Yumeko or you call her Megumi's true form. That body is a husk of her mortal lineage. Tempus replied. Are you Tempus? Aiden replied. Yes and your the mortal she gave half her lifespan to. Tempus replied. What did she just say, Megumi? Aiden asked.
