Morgan spends his days taking care of the charity his wife left behind.
"Mr. Morgan, we received ten proposals today for orphans," reported the charity’s secretary, handing over a stack of docunts.
"Okay, I’ll go through them one by one. Isabella would have wanted us to help as many children in need as possible," Morgan replied, smiling as he rembered his wife.
"She was a very kind woman. We all miss her," the secretary said with tears in her eyes.
"I miss her too. Every day," Morgan replied, his voice hoarse with longing.
His and his wife’s companies had been completely left to their three children, as per the will Isabella wrote before her death.
"Dad, we promise to take good care of Mom’s legacy," Morgan’s eldest child said solemnly.
"We won’t let Mom and Dad down," Morgan’s second child added, nodding firmly.
"Dad knows you can do it. You’re extraordinary children, a product of your mom’s upbringing," Morgan replied proudly, hugging his three children.
"Thank you for raising us with so much love, Dad," said his youngest child, sobbing.
Morgan is now truly enjoying her old age, spending ti with her family, sothing she rarely had the chance to do before, and enjoying her retirent comfortably without conflict, as all her children, in-laws, and grandchildren are harmonious and without significant argunts.
"Grandpa! Look, I can walk by myself now!" shouted her two-year-old first grandchild, running toward him.
"Wow, my granddaughter is so great! Grandpa is so proud of you," Morgan praised, lifting her granddaughter high.
"Grandpa, where’s Grandma Isabella? I miss you," asked her second grandchild innocently.
"Grandma is in heaven, honey. She’s watching over us all from there," replied Morgan Elio, lovingly stroking her granddaughter’s head.
"When is Grandma coming ho, Grandpa?" her little granddaughter asked again, her eyes sparkling.
"One day, Grandpa will join Grandma, and we’ll et again there," Morgan replied with a faint smile.
He breathed his last breath at the age of 90 peacefully.
"Daddy, don’t leave us," his children whimpered, holding their father’s cold hands.
"You... take good care of... this family..." Morgan whispered in a very weak voice.
"Yes, Daddy. We promise," they replied, crying.
"Isabella... I’m... coming..." Morgan said with a peaceful smile before taking his last breath.
Morgan’s funeral wasn’t as crowded as Isabella’s. He was buried next to his wife.
"Now Daddy and Mommy are together again," said the eldest child, placing flowers on his father’s grave.
"They were a perfect couple. Their love was eternal," added the second child, wiping away tears.
"May they be happy in heaven," the youngest child prayed sincerely.
Finally, he could fulfill the sacred promise he made in their marriage before God: to be faithful until his last breath. Morgan Elio has proven all of this.
"Dad truly loved Mom until the end. He never once glanced at another woman after Mom left," recalled his eldest son with admiration.
"That’s true love. Very rare these days," said one of the relatives present.
"They are role models for us all," added the eldest son-in-law respectfully.
The depth of Dad’s love for their mother has led his three children to follow their parents’ example, having only one partner in life.
"I want to be like Dad and Mom. Loyal until the end," said his eldest son to his wife.
" too. Let’s protect our love like they protect theirs," replied the wife, holding her husband’s hand.
This creates a harmonious family without any third parties because each of them always guards their heart and honor wherever they are, in accordance with what their parents taught them.
"Mom and Dad taught us that loyalty is the foundation of a strong marriage," said the second child in a family interview.
"We’re lucky to have role models like them," added her youngest child gratefully.
anwhile, in another dinsion, Isabella, drawn by the Phoenix System into her world, was still adrift in a colorful world.
"Where am I? Everything is so bright and colorful!" Isabella exclaid, turning around to look around.
"I feel like I’m floating in space," she added, moving her hands, which felt light.
"Phoenix System, is that slideshow over there one of the worlds I’m going to visit?" Isabella asked curiously, looking at the many screens displaying various forms of life she had never seen before.
"Amazing! There are so many different worlds!" she exclaid, her eyes wide with amazent.
There she saw everything from primitive life where humans lived in the Stone Age to modern life in a galaxy where everything relies on machines to survive.
"That... humans live in caves? And hunt with spears?" Isabella asked, pointing enthusiastically at one of the screens.
"And that one... oh my gosh, they fly in spaceships! The technology is so advanced!" she added in amazent.
Isabella also saw footage of palace life, from harem battles to life against zombies and surviving the end of the world (the apocalypse).
"Oh no, that one looks scary. I have to fight zombies?" Isabella asked, her face pale.
"And that one... it looks like complicated palace politics. Lots of intrigue and competition," she muttered, studying the screen showing palace life.
"Phoenix System, I can’t choose myself, can I? Everything is predetermined?" she asked again, anxiously.
[Yes, Host.] We wait here until a world pulls us in.]
"So I can only wait? Can’t choose?" Isabella asked in disappointnt.
"What if I end up in a very dangerous world?" she added worriedly.
Isabella, hearing the Phoenix System’s answer, nodded in understanding.
"Okay, I trust you, Phoenix System. You’ve helped so much before," she said in a calr tone.
"Then, will you still accompany in that new world?" Isabella needed to ask this because, after all, adapting to a new world is certainly not easy, so the Phoenix System’s presence is essential for her to live well.
"I’d have a hard ti without you, Phoenix System. You’re like a friend to ," Isabella said sincerely.
"Please don’t leave alone in a strange world," she pleaded in a pleading tone.
[Of course, the Phoenix System will accompany the Host on their mission, as it is embedded within the Host. However, at the beginning of the journey, the Phoenix System may be temporarily inactive due to the ti and space differences. Therefore, the Phoenix System will disappear for a mont and will only be reactivated after the Host completes several missions, which we will only learn about after arriving in the new world.
"Inactive? How long?" Isabella asked frantically.
"So I’ll be alone at the beginning? How will I survive without your help?" she added anxiously.
"Are there any hints you can give before you deactivate?" Isabella asked hopefully.
"I need to know at least the basics of the new world before you disappear," she pleaded seriously.
After the Phoenix System explained everything, Isabella’s body was suddenly sucked into a vortex of light and disappeared.
"WAIT! I’M NOT READY!" Isabella scread frantically, trying to hold herself together.
"PHOENIX SYSTEM! DON’T LEAVE !" she shouted again, but her voice was already swallowed by the increasingly powerful vortex of light.
"AAAAAHHH!" she scread as her body was completely sucked into the blinding vortex of light.
Clinggg!
The sound of the bells ringing signaled the beginning of Isabella’s new journey into a different world, with challenges she hadn’t yet encountered, and adventures awaiting her.
"May I be strong enough to face whatever cos," Isabella whispered to herself before her consciousness faded, ready to begin a new Chapter in her long journey across dinsions.
