Julius rubbed his face slowly, he looked at Kasumi who was still confused as to why the two of them looked surprised.
"No, Kasumi. My reason is not that,"
"Didn't you?"
"Yes, I told you to meet with the saint to check which balance you have, because only they can do that. But I didn't think there was any other information I didn't know,"
Julius was silent for a moment, he slightly lowered his head and muttered things that Cairo and Kasumi could not hear.
"Is it possible, the Goddess of destiny wants to convey about Kasumi's double red thread?"
Julius thought that, after Kasumi finished the illusion test he caught a glimpse of Kasumi's destiny.
Julius's eyes could indeed catch a glimpse of one's destiny. And all that in the symbol right with a thread that has a different color.
Everything seems normal and the same as what Julius' daughter predicted, but one of the threads looks different from the other.
The red thread that became the symbol of true love's destiny, it had two intersections. One of the threads has been seen tied to whose finger, but one of them is still a mystery.
Julius was curious, with the reason why his grandson had two red threads connected to each other.
'if that's true love, then it means that my grandson will have two husbands!?'
Julius begins to imagine how many great-grandchildren he would have if Kasumi were to marry two men later.
"Grandfather?"
Hearing Kasumi's voice calling out to him, Julius returns to the real world. He continued the question and forgot for a moment about Kasumi's double thread.
"Who's your friend? What race is he from?"
"He's a prince in the kingdom of Ceru."
"Hm? The kingdom of Ceru is an ocean, right?"
"Right grandpa,"
Julius closed his eyes for a moment, he thought of the background of the kingdom of Ceru that he knew.
The kingdom was indeed famous for the holy power possessed by the descendants of his kingdom, even so only 'pure' descendants had abundant holy power.
Not all children have holy power, and their holy power is different from that of a saint or a holy race. So, it is likely that Kasumi's friend is a pure descendant and her speech must be true.
Julius opened his eyes again, he looked at Kasumi with a serious look.
"Alright, you two go to the middle world and meet with the saint. If the Goddess of fate wants that meeting then you must attend."
Julius said to Kasumi and Cairo, they both nodded in understanding.
Although Kasumi's expression looks ordinary, but she is very upset about having to travel with Cairo.
He turned towards Cairo, a glimpse of a smile forming on his face that was always flat, even though Cairo had already covered the smile with his right hand but Kasumi knew that Cairo was smiling.
Kasumi stared in surprise and thought of the reason for the smile.
'why is he smiling?'
A moment later Kasumi recalled Cairo's words when she was dragged away, meaning she was invited to practice with him.
Cairo says if he was a descendant of a god, and now they will meet one of those gods. So, Kasumi concluded that the reason for the Cairo smile was because they would meet the Goddess of fate.
Kasumi thought, The goddess of destiny is Cairo's parents. Because he lives in the inner world, so surely he misses his parents right? There was another misunderstanding between Kasumi and Cairo.
"Oh yes, grandfather,"
Kasumi again called her grandfather, Julius turned his head and looked at Kasumi.
"Yes Kasumi?"
"do you know about the water of life?"
Julius's eyes seemed to tremble at a glance, but it quickly returned as usual.
"Grandfather knows that, but why are you asking?"
Kasumi was silent for a moment, hearing the answer in the form of a question from Julius made Kasumi reluctant to tell her true purpose.
He had wanted to say about the prophecy Yohan told him, but now Kasumi intended to undo it.
'maybe I have to find out for myself now,'
Kasumi shook her head slowly, then smiled.
"No, I just read that in the book and in the book said the place the water was in the woods of the outside world. I intend to visit him for a while because I am now in the outside world,"
Julius slightly breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that reaction made Kasumi even more curious.
"All right, we'll be there. But now you must meet with that saint"
Kasumi nodded her head in understanding, she immediately stood up and said goodbye to Julius. Kasumi came out first from Cairo, she immediately walked out without looking back.
Kasumi is a little suspicious of the reason Julius covered up about the water, but she decides to think about it later.
Inside the room are Cairo, Lolita and Julius who remain silent.
Cairo looked at Julius with a cynical look while Lolita just kept quiet and waited for their business to be done, somehow she did not even come with Kasumi out earlier.
"Surely that jerk Leandro was there too, wasn't he? I hear the drops are now in the middle world,"
Cairo said that with a dislike expression, while Julius just laughed. He knew that Cairo was 'somewhat' disliked Leandro a long time ago.
"Please don't make him die sooner, after all, his 'punishment' will end soon after Kasumi has gathered his strength to fight the evil demon, so he's still in need."
Julius tries to calm Cairo down, it could be dangerous if Cairo kills Adrian now. Still having an irritated face, Cairo nodded briefly.
"I'll try not to do that to her."
Julius breathed a sigh of relief, he was grateful that Cairo would listen to him. Then his eyes glanced at Lolita who was still there.
"Lolita, since you haven't made a contract with Kasumi so now you stay here, after Kasumi comes back you will make a contract soon."
Lolita nodded in understanding, then she disappeared from there.
...****...
"I found a hiding place while the demon's subordinates,"
Black said it with a serious face, Cendric and Elios who were there turned to him.
Now they are in a special meeting room, a meeting room that is often used by Elios, Black and Cendric discuss.
Cendric has returned to the kingdom of Cyrent, he did not want to return immediately because he was worried about Kasumi's situation.
However, an hour after Kasumi entered she received a letter from the inner world carried by the white bird, a familiar bird in her eyes.
He took the letter at the foot of the bird, and read it.
"go to your kingdom! Take care of it properly, no need to worry about my granddaughter asshole! Go there!"
The inscrutable inscription with the words of sarcasm on Cendric, he knew the author of the letter.
"D.basic fucking grandpa! He's still as annoying as he used to be,"
Cendric immediately made the paper into a tangled ball and burned it with magic, he felt very upset because it had been expelled. However, Julius was right too, he indeed had to take care of his kingdom now.
Cendric could not continue to ask Elios for help to take care of the problem, with annoyed Cendric finally returned to the kingdom.
Although he did not like Julius too much, however, he was his father-in-law, the father of Rhea.
So inevitably Cendric had to obey it, because Julius had said he would take care of Kasumi he was not worried anymore now.
"Where is that?"
"The drugstore in the middle world,"
Cendric tapped his finger on the table, thinking about the location Black said he was in.
"That's not a real 'medicine shop' isn't it?"
Cendric said with a suspicious look, Black nodded confirming what he said.
"Right, one of my subordinates disguised as a buyer to it. He bought one of the drugs that he sold and gave it to me, but from the outside it looks ordinary, but there's actually one ingredient that makes the drug different from other human drugs,"
Black paused for a moment, he took out a small bottle from his pocket and placed it in the middle of Cendric's table.
Cendric and Elios stare at the bottle, they instantly know what's odd about him without waiting for an answer from Black.
"Aun seppu? Isn't that a leaf that can interfere with mana in the body?"
Elios said that while looking at the bottle up close, he picked it up and shook the bottle slightly.
His eyes may not be able to see the physicality of the leaf, but Elios' nose can smell it.
Leaf seppu is a rare plant, usually used to make poison potions and simple weapons, because the content in the leaves can interfere with the flow of mana.
Everyone has mana in their body, but not everyone can control it. Actually seppu leaves are not too dangerous, but if it is consumed constantly then the body of the person who consumes it will be very easily controlled by foreign mana that enters their body.
Given about a soul controller they met at Rula's residence at that time, making Elios and Cendric know the reason seppu leaves were chosen as a mixture of medicinal ingredients by the demon's subordinates.
"Don't tell me, he wants to control the humans that are there?"
Elios said that while looking at Black and he nodded confirming.
Cendric let out a long sigh, he felt that this matter would be even more complicated especially now that they were using innocent people as victims.
