The mont Ariel witnessed her grandfather snapping his fingers and disappearing from before her eyes, she found herself teleported back to the eting room that they were in before everything fell into chaos.
And not just her, everyone who was previously in the room when Michael and Tobias had appeared was back in the room.
"Er…" Zach looked at everyone with a terrified look on his face and shouted, "What the hell just happened? One second we were hiding inside god knows whose bedroom… I blinked and then I am here! We all are! What's going on?"
Joyce was the one who exclaid next, "Kenneth hadn't fully healed! Now his wounds are non-existent!"
"And I am in my human form again! And my gown is intact!" Niylah exclaid next.
Vlad was the one who was in the most shock. "I was in front of my father. I was trying to stop him from sending out more soldiers. And we were in the middle of the argunt. How did I suddenly co here?"
He didn't want to leave his father unattended. He feared that Victoria would fill their father's ears with all the unfavorable information regarding Joyce's family.
"Er… I need to get back there!" So, without waiting to listen to how he was suddenly transported back to the room, he rushed outside.
Damien was furrowing his brows and touching his back. He felt holes in his shirt. But there weren't any wounds on him. He was damn sure that he had taken a heavy blow from Michael and had fallen to the ground.
"And I think I was unconscious," he mumbled. "Now my wounds are all healed and I am fully conscious."
Kenneth instantly spoke, "In your case, Ariel was the one who healed you." His heart ached when he recalled how he had seen Ariel mouth-feeding sothing to Damien.
"Ariel healed ?" Damien gave a questioning glace to Ariel. As far as he recalled, she was in no condition to use her magical power to heal him. She herself was in a bad shape. So he didn't understand how Ariel was able to heal him.
Zach looked at Ariel. She had been really quiet. So he questioned her, hoping for an answer, "Did we all have so really bizarre dream, or did we all die and co back to life again?"
Ariel abruptly sat down on the chair and heaved a deep sigh. She pinched the bridge of her nose and replied in a rather lancholic voice, "Everything that happened was real. I had fainted. And I woke up to find–"
"What? You fainted?" Damien knelt down in front of her and looked at her stomach. There wasn't a single scar there. "Then how did you heal? And how did you heal… Bloody hell!" He exclaid when he suddenly recalled hearing her voice in his half-conscious state. "You fed sothing to !"
Ariel scratched her forehead and replied, "Um, yes. Tobias had given a healing pill before he stabbed . He didn't attack for real. He was just trying to pretend in front of his father."
"Pretend?" Kenneth suddenly stood beside Damien and shouted. "You call that pretending? I thought you were going to die, Ariel!"
"And so did I!" Damien also agreed with Kenneth.
Ariel took a deep breath in and then tried to calm the both of them down. "You two are worrying for no reason. I won't die that easily. I am the granddaughter of the creators of this universe, rember?"
And suddenly, Joyce chid in, "And he who attacked you was the son of those sa creators."
Damien gave a sad gaze to Joyce and told what he had actually wanted to say to her as soon as he ca back to Earth, "And you, Joyce, were also the granddaughter of those creators. I confird it with soone I know, soone who knows you."
Everyone in the room went silent. They all gave a sad glance at Joyce. They didn't know how to react at all.
Ariel felt sorrier for Joyce thinking that God never ca to save Makenzie as he ca to save her. "I guess he can be unfair at tis," she thought to herself.
Zach didn't like the sudden gloomy vibe in the room. Not that it wasn't already gloomy, but now, he felt as if everyone were suddenly treating Joyce as if she had died just yesterday.
So he tried to steer the conversation away from Joyce. "Um… I have been waiting to get my answer. Can I know how we all got here in the blink of an eye?"
"Oh, right!" Ariel cleared her throat and finally told what had actually gone down, "After I fainted, I heard soone's voice calling my na. And when I opened my eyes, I found my grandpa standing next to .
My guess is, he ca down here to heal . And I think he was the one who teleported all of us here and healed everyone who was hurt. He had said that everyone will be fine. So I guess he healed everyone before he left."
"What about the soldiers?" Joyce ran towards the window to look outside. She had seen a lot of soldiers who were in worse condition. But she exclaid in surprise, "No one is down there! Did all of the soldiers also get transported to where they were before?"
And right then, Vlad entered the room. He slamd the door close and exclaid in shock, "Nobody rembers the incident that happened outside! Nobody except us! They don't even rember what happened in the hall in the evening!"
"What? Nobody rembers?" Joyce raised her brows at her husband.
Vlad nodded, "Yes, nobody. Not even Victoria. I thought she was simply pretending at first. But she doesn't rember for real. She doesn't rember anything that happened after the dinner ended. The King and the Queen don't rember having any conversation with after dinner.
And I also asked a few guards and maids. They recall nothing after dinner. It's like the ti reset itself or sothing."
Vlad looked around at everyone in the room. None of them looked as surprised as he had expected them to be. So he asked skeptically, "What? Nobody believes ?"
But instead, everyone shook their heads. And Ariel clarified, "No, we all believe you. I think it was done by my grandfather."
"Y-Your grandfather?" Vlad asked while stuttering, "Y-You an G-God? He was also h-here?"
Ariel gave a nod. "Yes, he was here a while ago. But only I saw him. Ti had stopped when he was here. So, I guess, he indeed reset the ti or wiped everyone's mory after dinner or sothing like that."
"Whoa! Why would he do that?" Vlad asked in surprise. He wasn't complaining though. Rather, he was really grateful because all of his problems vanished just like that.
Ariel took a deep breath in and replied to the Crown Prince, "Maybe he didn't want the mortals to rember how angels could also cause mayhem. That would make them lose faith in him and all the other angels as well."
"That actually makes a lot of sense." Vlad sighed in relief. "But why do we all rember everything?"
Ariel shrugged and replied, "Maybe because we all are already deeply involved with the heavenly affairs?"
Everyone felt as if that was the best explanation they could get about today's bizarre incident.
"So, what do we do now?" Zach looked at everyone and asked, "Do we pretend like nothing happened tonight and go to sleep?"
Everyone in the room knew that it was impossible to do so.
