Reincarnation Diana

18

In Claude's room. Claude, Athanasia, Anastasius, Penelope, Lucas, Felix, and Lily were gathering there.

"What is this really about?" ask Anastasius.

Penelope is looking for her daughter's whereabouts. "Where's Zenith?"

"Zenith is gone" Athanasia answered.

Penelope's eyes were wide open. "Disappeared?!"

"Yes, now his body is controlled by that black magic and the magic is blurred with Zenith's body." Penelope was surprised to hear that. Anastasius hugged Penelope.

"We need to find Zenith as soon as possible, dear," Penelope asked.

"The knights have been assigned to look for Zenith but there has been no news until now. It looks like to find Zenith will spend a very long time considering she was affected by black magic," Claude explained.

"Actually why could Zenith be affected by that black magic again? Didn't Diana purify her at that time?" ask Anastasius.

"Purifying does not mean eliminating forever. That black magic just came off and disappeared temporarily from your son's body. When your child's body experiences the same emotions, the black magic will return" Lucas explains.

"What emotions can make Zenith influenced by black magic?" ask Penelope.

"Jealousy and envy" Lucas replied.

"It seems like it's all because of Athy." Athanasia said.

"What does that mean?" ask Anastasius.

"Before Athy was irregular, the black magic had said something. The black magic says it's all Athy's fault. Athy makes Zenith feel no affection. Zenith was also envious because everyone was only greeting Athy even though Zenith was also part of the royal family" explained Athanasia.

Lily approached Athanasia and said something, "Master princess, miss Zenith had said that she felt jealous of the princess but Miss Zenith said that she was fine as long as the princess did not forget Miss Zenith."

"But that accumulated feeling will definitely explode one day, Lily and maybe this is the time that the accumulated feeling exploded. Dad, can't you give up your throne for Uncle Anas? Athy doesn't matter if you don't become the princess."

"No, Athanasia. Uncle does not want the throne" said Anastasius firmly.

"But uncle, Athy does not want Zenith to be jealous of the status that Athy has now."

"Athanasia, listen to uncle. Uncle and aunt have agreed to be commoners and we've explained it to Zenith. Zenith agreed, too" explained Anastasius.

"What your uncle said is true, Athanasia. What Zenith thought and said back then was probably due to the influence of black magic" Penelope said.

Athanasian's eyes began to glaze over. "But Athy felt that it was the true heart of Zenith."

"Enough Athanasia! You're already tired. Go back to your room and rest. Felix and Lily, take the princess to her room and don't let her wander!" Claude's orders.

"Okay, your honor." Felix and Lily take Athanasia to Athanasia's room.

***POV SAID***

"Today Athanasia and Zenith's debutante party will be held but I can't even come because the old man locked me in this tower" I complained.

I ran away from the tower and almost met Lucas. Fortunately I was able to escape from Lucas and my mana was not felt by Lucas. Because of that incident, he locked me in tighter than ever.

"What are you doing?" ask someone.

"What else? I'm lamenting fate for not being able to come to my daughter's debutante party and it's all because of you!" reply upset.

"Who at the time escaped from the tower and was almost captured by Lucas?" insinuations.

"I didn't know I was going to meet Lucas in a public place because all I knew was that Lucas didn't like being in a crowded place" I explained.

"If I hadn't hidden the aura of your soul, then you would have been caught by Lucas."

"Why can't I go out? And why are you desperately hiding me like this, Erez? I'm tired of hiding and planning to see them."

Yes, the one who saved me when I was about to die was Erez. He's a great wizard like Lucas but Erez's power exceeds Lucas's.

"I know who you really are" he said suddenly.

I don't understand what Erez said. "Huh?"

"Your soul's not from here, is it Park Bomi?"

I was surprised to hear that. "How do you know my real name?!"

"You're surprised because I know more than Lucas does? I told you I'm better than Lucas. I know that your presence here also has a purpose, right? You are not merely reincarnated here."

I'm speechless.

"Why silence? I'm right, aren't I?"

I slowly backed off.

Erez. "Hey why are you retreating like that?"

"Don't approach me! Who are you really?!"

"Why is your question so stupid? Didn't you already know that I'm a witch just like Lucas, just that my powers are stronger than him."

"Is it that simple?"

"You know if I have a purpose here, what is my purpose?"

"Hmm? You can't believe I'm better than Lucas. The god told you that there will be a big problem going on and only you can solve it, right?"

My eyes widened. "Do you know about the god?"

"Hmm not really, I just saw a god approaching you."

"Erez speak clearly! I don't understand you any more."

"You want me to tell you about myself? What's the advantage to me?"

"What is your advantage in saving me?"

"You're the one who can solve the problems that will happen later. If I don't save you, then who will save the world?"

"Actually what kind of trouble is going to happen? Is the problem really big?" my question is not to understand.

"You don't know?"

I'm shaking. "No, the god didn't tell me."

"Then let me show you what will happen in the future. Look with your own eyes, Diana." Erez closed my eyes and cast a magic spell.

"Open your eyes, Diana!" his orders.

When I opened my eyes, there was darkness, sadness, and misery everywhere.

"It's Obelia?"

"Yes, this is Obelia in the future."

I shut my mouth in disbelief. Many voices are asking for help.

"I-I want to get out of here," I asked in a trembling voice.

After that I went back to the real world.

"How's it?" ask Erez.

"That's terrible, Erez," I replied in a still trembling voice. I can still feel the suffering of the people there.

"That's why I saved you, Diana."

"Actually what kind of trouble is going to happen? What problems make Obelia do?"

"Black magic."

"Black magic?"

"Yes. The black magic managed to find a strong container and made it invincible. Even Lucas and I can't beat him."

"Why?"

"Because we can't afford."

"If you can't, what about me?! You strong alone cannot defeat him."

"We're different from you, Diana!"

"What's different, Erez?! Which one you have is bigger but you can't beat it."

"You can!" Erez.

"No!"

"Can, Diana!"

"How is Erez?!"

"Near the black magic and find out the past."

"It will open the wound in his heart."

"But that's the only way to beat him."

"But it'll hurt him."

"She will continue to feel pain if she stays here, Diana. We have to get him back where he came from."

"Where is he from?"

"In the next realm."

"Next nature?"

"Yes. He should have reincarnated into another realm but because the hatred in his heart made him unable to be reborn and you were able to help him" Erez explained.
