'I don't think having a great idea is enough. I believe that dedication and willingness to put in hard work are more important.'
…
We, both rlin and I, sat on the chair as we began listening to Themis' story.
It was a bit of a long story, but to sum it up; she was an Angel, before she beca a Goddess, who was born with the Nature Fragnt.
According to her, she used to see mories and prophecies regarding her task of saving the world and stuff, and I believe it is related to Guardians and Primordials.
Later on, she and her clan was banished from the World of Angels because of a sin her grandfather committed and it didn't just end at that as her entire clan was massacred by the Devils, since an Angel who was banished from their land doesn't have much power, anyway.
She was the sole survivor and the reason she survived was because of her Guardian Fragnt, which kind of trapped her here.
Her System told her that only another Guardian Fragnt could save her or else she might die. Though the System also gave her a way out of here, if she could give up her fragnt to another person.
Though, that would an leaving from here plus losing her special nature related powers.
So, in the end, she was waiting for a Guardian or a person strong enough to save her from the problems by having the fragnt as a blessing.
"Hmmm… what's your deal with Lunas?" I asked, and she answered after a bit of contemplation,
"When I was escaping from the Devils, I ended up being saved by the Luna Princess. As a result, I helped them out with my powers, which were related to vegetation and plantation."
Hmmmm….
"How co you are trapped here, then? I an, when did you arrive here?" I asked because if she was with the Lunas, wouldn't she be safe already? Why need to trap herself here… or what happened to keep her here?
"That, huh? Actually, it was the Devils again. They attacked the Lunas with whom I was staying and kind of killed most of them," Themis spoke with a sad expression as she felt really bad with what happened before.
"Wait! Wait! Wait!... You are saying that the reason the Lunas were attacked and almost wiped out by the Devils in the previous millennia was because of you?!!" rlin chid in with a look of disbelief on her face.
Soon her face turned ashen as she spoke." Do you know how many people died because of your selfishness? My father… my mother…everyone died-"
"They would have died anyway, though," I yawned as I spoke, cutting off rlin.
rlin turned to with a glare, and I continued,
"Honestly, the Scarlets, when they found out about the opposite nature of Luna, kind of waged war anyway. Because I personally know their nature, if Luna would have been as strong as millennials ago, the Scarlets would have waged an open war rather than trying to hunt them every now and then."
"..." rlin looked at , as if she wanted to speak sothing, but words weren't coming out of her mouth.
"Well, that is my story. What about yours?" Spoke Themis and I nodded at her before turning at rlin for a sec.
"Should I kill her?" Themis spoke without any hesitation, which made rlin look at and Themis with a pale expression, but I spoke,
"I need her. Well, I guess it can't be helped in this case, so well… whatever…"
And then I began telling bits about how I t Janus and heard about the Guardian Fragnt and how I hold one of the Space Guardian's fragnts and its effects.
I told her many half truths and fabricated lies, which I would later reveal to her completely once I start trusting her, but for now, I think I will keep them a secret.
After all was said and done
"Let's see if I can get you out of here then… but before that I have a couple of questions for her," I said as I looked at rlin who just looked at with a slight gulp making chuckle at her.
"I will be honest with you cause I really need to build a trust-based relationship with you and not a business minded one here. Or else, all of us will die." My tone turned serious and so was her expression.
"I need your help with dealing with the Laurentz and later on building a strong force to develop in the Western Continent. I will give you all the resources and paths to reach that goal, but in return I want to have equal power, which you will hold over the Western Continent in the end. I can't manage both the continents at once, so I need you to do that for ," I spoke, and she looked at with a little of a baffled look.
"Other than that, I want to know exactly what is your relationship with the Lunas right now? I know your blood related elders were Luna and you are one of the last Luna bloodline holders despite being a human, but other than that… what exactly is your current status with them?" I asked and this ti her eyes opened up wide with her mouth wide enough to put an egg into it.
"I.. uh.. how do you…. Who are you?" She tried speaking but in the end spoke only this much.
"Well… I really need to know rlin… It's kind of important to ," I spoke again with a really distressed voice and she looked at and then at Themis before sighing,
"All right. I will tell you… but then tell , how do you know about ? Is it really this easy to get my information out?"
I nodded at her before she looked at with a bitter expression as she spoke.
"The Current Royal Luna Queen is actually my cousin sister's granddaughter. That is the relationship I hold with her."
