"... were they killing each other, I an... all of them?"
"Pretty much... so of them allied together, so of them betrayed one another, everything for power... to topple the very gods and earn their freedom. In every samsara, they're always enemies, for that's their nature... they have killed one another endless tis, and they will always instinctively fight one another regardless of their reincarnation. But that wasn't the case this ti." Nova's tonality resurged with curiosity.
"..." Isabella noticed with a frown, that whenever she talked about her son, there was this... tone, that she wasn't quite liking.
"Your son made all my daughters fall in love with him, to the point they don't care about their own fight... they even SHARED sothing for the first ti in dozens of thousands of years! Those girls don't even share the stars we gave them for toys!"
'S-Stars... TOYS!?'
"That's why I desired to et you, the person he had loved the most in his entire life, from start to end." Nova finished her summary.
"That's impossible." Isabella bit her lips and shook her head, she refused to believe it, she refused to be the person he loved the most, even if proof said otherwise.
"Why do you deny it?"
"I'm old and-" Once again she began to the point even Nova felt annoyed.
"You're old and? didn't he stay with you until the end..."
"He was disgusted by ."
"Isabella." The white-haired lady could literally feel the goddess tapping her fingers in a disciplinary way.
"..."
"You know that's a lie."
"He shouldn't have stayed with for so long." She sobbed, breaking down.
"It hurt so much... that I couldn't... be up to his level... he always shone in brilliance while I... I was at most a forsaken noble lady that just happened to be a little sexy... It sounds ridiculous, right? I always regretted that I couldn't give my virginity to my son of all people... when he made love to despite my wrinkles, when he was so attentive sacrificing his own ti just to self so flowers with , despite being the Emperor... how comprehensive he was with when I told him... that I was already too old to lay down with him, *sob* how he ca back to ... even when I told him that I didn't want to see him anymore. Nova, I didn't deserve him." Her heart wouldn't stop stirring. "I don't deserve to be the person he loved the most."
Even if those were her feelings, the goddess wasn't planning to hold back.
"The truth is that... you're the person he loved and still loves the most in his entire life, for a year after your death, he held suicidal thoughts and almost achieved it twice."
!!!
She gasped, feeling a big sting rcilessly piercing her chest.
"If not for my daughter, Caroline... convincing him, he would have killed himself in his despair to follow you. It was only after this that he finally moved on and loved my daughters truthfully, sadly... it never quite reached what he felt for you... what he went through with you pained him so much, yet he still choose to live to the end until every single one of my daughters passed away their samsara, I don't know what to tell you. You raised a magnificent son and I'm thankful to you, Isabella... because he made my daughters who up to that point knew nothing but pain and war, genuinely happy."
She cried madly... Isabella couldn't contain the happiness in her chest, for many reasons, the fact that her son had gained such an achievent with a powerful existence, yet all that paled in comparison, the pride of a mother paled in comparison to what she felt as a woman, to know that he had moved on from her and kept living.
Nova couldn't understand, and the more her senses rested on this woman, the more she wanted to know, so far... her instincts were screaming and they weren't lying.
'This is the right person.'
"Isabella..."
"..."
"Were you happy?"
"He made so happy... so loved. Nova, I WAS... SO HAPPY!" Broken yet reaffird, she stopped denying what she believed as the truth, it would be an insult to her son otherwise, to keep denying his hard work.
Every single pain that she lived, even the worst ones... if it ant that she could have Constantine in her life again, she would go through them a hundred tis with a happy smile, give birth to that perfection of a son, and engage in the most pleasurable and happy affair that she could have ever lived... this ti early on instead of having wasted so much ti, so many nights... being such a bad mother to him.
Isabella Greenwood just couldn't stop crying in desolation, she wouldn't live that ever again... and there was no balance in her heart, she received tones of love, and only gave away grams.
She died but this debt hadn't been paid.
Isabella felt soone pat her head and that was when she saw her.
That beauty that shouldn't exist in this world, her hair seed to be made by the very stars, her dress concealed a body that made her -an astoundingly sexy lady at least in her pri- feel envy.
If her hair was the stars, her dress was the space that contained those stars and the myriad nebulous.
"That's the reason I needed you... that unparalleled happiness that not even the very gods can conceive, that love that only mortals can understand, I... want to understand it... would you allow to live it through your eyes?" She requested, raising the old lady's chin, what remained of a woman that had lived her life and sexuality to the maximum extent.
"Can't you do it?" Isabella didn't understand why this goddess was asking for permission.
"I can... but... I want to ask you because those are your most important mories, I don't want to look them up without your permission, I will be seeing what you saw, feeling what you felt..."
"... why?" Isabella frowned, those were precious mories, those she didn't want to share with anyone, her son and herself during the most primal euphoria, no one had ever known and she held no doubt that even after her passing, her son hadn't told anybody.
It was not because the secret couldn't be revealed... several tis they went beyond that boundary, and their love and desire for one another took them to the most precarious of places... they even made love in the barracks when the soldiers were still amidst their training... surely more than a hundred or a thousand people amongst the nobles of the empire already speculated it, but knew saying a word ant their heads being removed. The reason to conceal it was... that those mories belonged to them, no one was qualified to know.
But even then, Nova insisted.
"Because my power is so abysmal that... I don't understand what love is, but I must... for the sake of 'balance' between Ti and Space." Nova gave her words, rather ambiguous but with deep seriousness concealed within.
For several seconds Isabella didn't answer.
"What is going to happen to ?"
"I took you away from death... the reapers will co after you, but since this is my private realm- an isolated dinsion out of the very multiverse- they can't reach you... there is the option of staying here forever in this white world with ."
"..."
"There is the option of going back to Death and obtaining the result of your karmic score, whether it be paradise or damnation."
"... is there a way for to go back to him?"
"No."
"..." Sadness.
"Not conventionally at least, lucky for you... I am not a conventional goddess."
"What way is there!?"
"Allow to see your mories and experiences as if I was you... and after I finish, you will know."
"Is this so sort of extortion?"
"Of course not, but I can't wait... I want to experience it Isabella, please."
"Are you attracted to my son?" She asked, threateningly.
"I am a being unable to feel love."
"..."
"But yes, your son attracts ."
"Hey!"
"What? I'm space, attraction and gravity are forces working under my domain, I don't love him... but I have this desire to know more about him, even if I see the entire tiline over and over, a hundred million tis, I can't understand... it is beyond my comprehension as a high goddess and primal elent of the universe to understand the affairs of mortals, yet I want to know."
"..."
"And even compared to my daughters, you're the perfect individual for this, Isabella... will you allow ?"
"I don't get it but... okay... if it will help you, just... if you can make any choice that I couldn't and can sohow alter my actions, please... love him... with all your heart."
The lady giggled, "I shall~"
She then placed her hand on the lady's forehead and the event that would switch the entire axis of fate in the multiverse began.
