Acantha slept that night after she went with Flaar to clear the capital to make sure that there was no soul sucker that was left to kill people.
She was now having breakfast with her father, and she saw that the people seed to be still a little scared of knowing that the duke they buried the last ti was very much alive.
"What will you do this afternoon, Aki?" The duke asked her as they finished eating and were just drinking their coffee.
"I will just try to strengthen the barriers for our territories." Acantha said as she looked at her father.
"Say, Fabian had told you went to Tenebrisaya," her father asked as he looked like he was still confused.
"What did you do there?" the duke continued to ask her as he was sipping his own coffee while frowning.
"We just retrieved sothing." Acantha said she didn’t want to shock her father by telling him that she was there to retrieve her past mories.
"What was it?" he continued to ask her, looking so confused.
Acantha sighed as it seed like the duke wouldn’t stop until he learned the reason why they went to Tenebrisaya to retrieve sothing.
She started telling him what happened at the Tenebrisya and she saw the duke’s face was surprised at her revelations.
"So, you’re telling ... you’re Solaia? The goddess?" Her father said as he was still in shock at what she said.
"Yes, I was her in the past..." Acantha said as she looked at her father, who still looked like he couldn’t believe what he just heard from her.
"But you’re my daughter... How is that possible?" He said as he looked confused.
Acantha sighed as it seed like the duke still had a hard ti digesting all the words she revealed to him.
"I am your daughter, but I am her in the past..." Acantha explained again as she looked at her father.
"Wow, that’s... I don’t know what to say..." The duke said as he looked at her.
"You don’t have to worry about anything, Father. No matter what my past and no matter who I am in the past, I will always be your daughter." She said to Duke, who nodded at her with warmth in his eyes.
After they talked, the duke hugged her before he said that he was going to talk to Fabian and others, while Acantha just rested for awhile to digest what she had eaten.

Acantha looked at Flaar, who was now with her, as they were looking at the hill where they could see the capital.
The hill was still part of the Solaris and there enemies still wouldn’t find the place.
She didn’t want to risk what happened in the past, where she was surprised by Abanoon’s attack and didn’t have ti to save lots of people.
That was one of her regrets back then.
"It seems like Abanoon still hasn’t recovered from what happened yesterday." Acantha said as she was sitting on Flaar’s back as they were observing the capital.
"It seems like the owner seems to be trying to get back her body. Abanoon seems to forget that once you make a contract with soone, you need to fulfill it; that’s the law in our realm. The power of words and promises in the form of a contract is a sacred thing to us; that’s why we rarely form any contract with everyone". Acantha said as she looked at it from afar.
"Or maybe Abanoon didn’t know she ford a contract with soone?" Flaar asked her, which made her frown.
Acantha looked at him. It can be...
Abanoon wasn’t always there in their realm and she didn’t know much about their laws.
The laws that were given to them as goddesses.
"What was your plan with the dragon?" Flaar asked her and she knew who he was talking about.
She had been in love with him in their past year, and she knew that their fates were entangled back then, but what she didn’t expect was that they would still et in her present life.
"I don’t know..." Acantha said as she looked at the sky.
She knew she had so feelings for him, but that’s not what she wanted to prioritize now; her feelings could be set aside.
This world won’t have any peace if Abanoon and her people are still out there.
If Abanoon had learned about Helion being Dromonos in the past, she would have been thankful that her twin sister couldn’t see soone’s soul, or else she might have killed him.
Abanoon hated everything that made her happy; she hated those who loved her.
The capital looks calr now, as she can see.
But still the people shouldn’t feel complacent at what was happening now.
Abanoon was tricky and wicked. She would attack you at the most unexpected tis and in unexpected ways.
She turned her head and told Flaar that they should go back as there was nothing that was happening.

Helion was reading so reports that Jarnus had given to him this morning.
The report was about the capital being reconstructed in such a very fast ti.
But his mind was roaming sowhere. He tried going to the Solaris, but the place still hasn’t appeared again.
He sighed; he had been desperate to see her again.
"Your Highness..." Helion looked at Ernie, who just entered the room, but Jarnus wasn’t with him.
"What was it, Ernie?" He asked worriedly if there might be sothing bad that happened again.
"Nothing, I just wanted to report that nothing was happening in the capital, which is odd." Ernie said as he looked at him.
It seems like Ernie and the others also learned about Acantha’s coback.
"What about soul sucker?" Helion asked as it was already noon and he still hadn’t heard that sound that everyone feared every ti they heard it.
"That was also one of my reports; it was odd that we still haven’t heard any sounds from that dreadful noise that we always heard every day." Ernie said as he looked at his window that was close.
Every window and door in the palace ever since the day that the soul sucker had arrived had been closed.
"It was odd, but Ernie... Always rember that our enemy was Abanoon with Tenebrisaya..." Helion said as he warned Ernie to be alert all the ti.
They shouldn’t be so slack and confident that they won’t attack them anymore.
Not when he learned that Acantha was Solaia.
He had seen their past...
The chaos she brought on their empire killed so many of the dragon people in their empire.
They were still lucky enough to have Solaia on their side; if not, they would have already been wiped out by Abanoon.
"Just tell them to always stay vigilant and always be ready...." Helion said as he looked at Ernie, who nodded before he went.
He looked again at the paper that he was reading.
It seems like all the matters that were on the paper had been taken care of when Acantha rebuilt the capital.
He was wondering how she managed to do that in such a short period of ti.
He looked outside his window again, wondering when he would see her.
"Will I see you again?" Helion, as he whispered in the wind.

Acantha felt a sudden chill; it seed like soone was talking about her.
She looked at Mildred, who was doing so chores.
"My lady, what snacks do you want?" Mildred asked her as she finished doing what she was doing a while ago.
"Just anything will do, Mildred." Acantha said as she looked at Mildred, who was asking her what to eat.
She lay on her bed and tried to close her eyes to get so sleep.
She was startled when she heard a sudden knock on the door.
"Co in," Acantha said as she looked at the door and Mildred entered from it with snacks in her hand.
"Do you have any news of where my father is?" Acantha asked Mildred if she had seen her father since this morning.
"The duke was still with Fabian and others." Mildred said, which didn’t answer her question.
Acantha sighed; she was still scared for him. If he went out from the barrier, she couldn’t bear to lose him again for the second ti.
Acantha ate the snacks that Mildred brought for her and after that she went out of her room again with Flaar, who she saw in the hallway.
"We need to go to the capital." Acantha said as she hold Flaar and then they disappeared.
They were in the capital now and there were so knights who were roaming around, and she even saw so injured people that they were about to bring sowhere.
Acantha went near to them as she just wanted to help them.
"Stop." Acantha said and the knights all looked at her like they were surprised to see her, but when they recognized her, they all bowed their heads.
"Lady Acantha..." The knights greeted her and Acantha could see the hope in their eyes when they saw her.
She look at the injured and-
