Chapter 459: mory Loss
"I, I am Arthur, your husband. Have you lost your mory, Alie?" Arthur stuttered a little. He thought his wife didn't recognize him anymore.
"Those orange eyes and that reddish black hair... Arthur, honey, what happened after that attack? Is everything all right? I'm sorry for failing to defeat that devil." Alie muttered quietly. She finally rembered the man who hugged her.
However, she rembered sothing very important and imdiately panicked. "Ah! Our baby! Are we still in Avrora Forest? Is our baby son, Theo, unhard? Theo is okay right? Where is he? I need to make sure he doesn't get hurt imdiately!"
Arthur was stunned for a mont. He had no idea what happened, but it looked like his wife had no recollection of mories of what happened after the attack thirty-six years ago.
'My wife, Alie lost her mory?' Arthur glanced at Elysia and the Goddess of Nature, but he could only see the curious gazes. 'They don't know either? Nevermind, I think this is the best result I can get. My wife will live a blisfull life without being disturbed by the mories of tragedy and suffering for thirty-six years under the control of that evil spirit.'
Arthur nodded in agreent with his internal claim. It was a much better result than what he could have hoped for.
"Nee, answer , Arthur! I want to check our baby son, but my body is so weak and helpless. Take to see our baby Theo, now!" Alie pounded her husband's chest, but there was no significant force.
"All right, okay, but, looks like we need to talk. You've been in a deep slumber for thirty-six years, you know? Our son and I were really worried, but we couldn't do anything and could only wait for a miracle.
Today, a divine being gave a divine help to bring you back to . Who would have thought the legend of a noble prince and sleeping beauty is actually happening to us." Arthur created a new scenario with a thought in mind.
"Huh? Thirty-six years? I fell in a deep slumber for that long? Did that terrible devil ghost cast a curse upon ?" Alie's eyes widened in surprise. But, she imdiately returned to her main objective. "Wait, then, our baby son..."
"Yeah, he's grown up. You'd be surprised to see the lite version of because our son is just like ." Arthur gently flicked his wife's nose.
"I didn't believe you before I was our son with my own eyes. I'm sure that our son bears a lot of resemblance to ." Right after saying that, Alie's expression beca gloomy spontaneously.
"Alie, are you all right? Let's go. You need intensive care because you've been asleep for thirty-six years." Arthur panicked a little. However, before he could do anything, his wife put her hand on his chest.
"No, I'm fine. I'm just sad that I wasn't there to be by our son's side. Does oue bay Theo rember as his mother? I was a bad mother. Our baby Theo must hate ..." Alie sighed and closed his eyes.
"It's actually the opposite. Our Theo is looking forward to the day you return to the family. He also misses you very much, just as much as how I miss you." Arthur tried to convince his wife. For so reason, he felt relieved.
"Is that true?" Alie opened her eyes again with doubt, but there was an expectation.
"Yeah." Arthur nodded.
"Really, really? I an is it really true?" Alie asked for another confirmation.
"Yeah. Let's et our Theo now and confirm my words. We also need to have a private family talk." Arthur repeatedly nodded with a smile on his face.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's get out of here. Go!" Alie raised her hand high.
"All right, all right. Please hold tight because I can go much faster than the wind." Arthur fixed his wife's position in his princess carry, then he walked toward the gate.
"Eh? We have a lot of guests? Woah, that dragon-armored man looks really strong." Alie's attention was drawn to a group not far from the stone gate, especially to the tallest and biggest man.
"You just woke up and already glanced at other n even though the? one perfect is carrying you like a princess?" Despite saying that, there wasn't the slightest hint of jealousy or irritation on Arthur's face.
He was actually happy to see his wife did not receive any ntal backlash and was still as cheerful as he knew.
*Bam!*
Arthur simply kicked the stone gate with his Emperor-level strength. It collapsed instantly into rubble without much magic due to the inactive chanism.
"Everyone is very welco at Aeddoterra Palace. But please allow to excuse myself." Arthur said goodbye to Elysia's group, then ordered the two people near the exit. "Lucas, Lawrence, please accompany my honored guests."
"Understood!" Lucas and Lawrence gave a knightly bow with a hand on the chest.
After that, Arthur sped away up the stairs with his wife in his arms.
"Hmm... Queen Alie doesn't rember what happened?" Elysia muttered softly with an astonished expression.
"Miss Elysia and everyone, this may sound a bit harsh on our part, but we sincerely implore you not to bring up any tragedy to Queen Alie. This was probably the best outco because Queen Alie couldn't rember any horrific events. Only God knows what happened during the past thirty-six years under that evil spirit's control." Lucas made a request politely. He and Lawrence gave a bow after that.
"Mm, you don't have to worry. Let's get back to the surface." Elysia just gave the nod, although she was confused in her mind. She thought that it was an unexpected mistake from her side.
'Ely, it's not a mistake if it ends up being the best. Let's say it was an unexpected miracle.' Elena gave an approving nod to remind the confused Elysia.
'Ah, you're right, Sister Elena. But, allow to speak to Rhea and Nell to find out their point of view on this. It would be terrible if sothing like this happened in the future. It is not always desirable to accidentally erase the patient's mory.' Elysia nodded in understanding. Then, she walked toward the stairs, and everyone followed after her.
'Alright, I'll just wait for the results here~' Elena humd, then threw herself onto the soft bed.
'Nee, Rhea, Nell, did Elena and I do sothing wrong while synchronizing Queen Alie's spirit to her body? Why did she lose her mory? Also, is it that easy for an evil spirit to possess soone and take complete control? It was terrible when I think about it.' Elysia opened a conversation via telepathy.
Nell beca interested instantly and landed on Elysia's shoulder. 'According to my eyes, what you are doing is flawless. Alie's spirit was perfectly synced to her body. That is as far as what you can do to a mortal. It would be very risky if you tried to touch her synchronized spirit, Ely. She mortal rember, not divine like my big sister that you can touch at will. After all, Arthur seed very pleased with this result. Why do you feel worried?'
'Hey, why does that sound a little weird to , Little Nell?' Rhea raised her eyebrows to protest.
'Hehe...' Nell just giggled and floated down to her big sister.
'Master Elysia, I can answer all your confusion earlier. Would you like to hear it now?' Rhea just let Nell sit on her lap. She looked up at Elysia's face for confirmation.
'Mm, I'm all ears. Please tell .' Elysia gave a gentle smile.
'Hm, you know, the truth is, evil spirits can't possess soone with a healthy, clean, or pure soul. In other words, they can only possess soone with deep regrets, depression, major sins, and other bad things. Evil spirits can only take complete control over beings with a lot of sin or negative energy.
To be sure, Alie had committed a grave sin in the past, and she was suffering in silence. After Alie defeated at her vulnerable state, the evil spirit took advantage of it? to completely possess her body.' Rhea gave enough explanation for Elysia to understand easily.
'But, sigh... It turned out to be true. It wasn't just devils who were evil even though that race had the word 'evil' in it. All races are actually the sa, including humans. We can only judge them individually.' Elysia took a deep breath, then let it out slowly.
'Yeah, it hurts to say, but it's the truth. Even though I am a Human Goddess, I am aware that humans are not as good as I expected. Maybe only so of them can live up to my expectations. For the rest, they are nothing more than evil embodints but in human form.' Nell sighed to admit that without hesitation.
'Humans aren't as good as you might think, huh… Apparently, we're just lucky enough to et individuals with good hearts. But, please prepare yourself, Ely. We might et the worst one day. As you know, sotis, humans are the worst creatures on Earth. This world has many sentient creatures. So, you know what I want to say, right?' Elena looked up at the galactic sky in the Soul Realm with a sigh.
'Mm.' Elysia switched to a private connection to respond only to Elena.
'Ah, Master Elysia. For your other questions, I suspect that Alie lost her mory due to two or three possible causes. This is just a possibility based on my observations and knowledge, okay?' Rhea returned to the topic of their concern. She couldn't even confirm with complete confidence about the cause of Alie's mory loss.
