Slowly Goddess Akane raised her right hand and rubbed the side of her husband's face so gently and lovingly. A smile that was so warm and serene with sincerity began to adorn the face of his father who now looks very pale.
"Because I love you, Prince Shibata Katsuie .. my husband." said Goddess Akane so softly and she said it sincerely.
The words of Goddess Akane were piercing for prince Shibata Katsuie. Because all this time he felt he could not be a good husband for his wife. He never gave his wife any rights. And he never cared about Goddess Akane as his wife.
All this time they were just two strangers who happened to have to live and live together because of a wedding promise. That's all!
"Akane .. forgive me. I'm sorry because I've never done anything good for you. Forgive me for not being a good husband to you all this time. I'm sorry, Akane." said prince Shibata Katsuie, full of regret.
Goddess Akane smiled faintly hearing the remark from prince Shibata Katsuie. He also nodded faintly. Although all of that was done by prince Shibata Katsuie in the past. However, Goddess Akane never hated her or regretted her feelings of love that was always sacred and sincere.
Slowly Goddess Akane began to close her eyes and it made the prince Shibata Katsuie hit. She cried and roared as if she had no power to release the Goddess Akane. His heart began to wobble and began to love him.
"Akane, don't go!! Don't leave me alone, Akane!! AKANE!!!!"
The shriek of prince Shibata Katsuie echoed in all corners of the palace and he increasingly hugged the body of Goddess Akane. For the first time he felt he did not want to part with his wife who he had always never wanted and never touched. For the first time she cried just for her wife. And for the first time he hugged the body of Goddess Akane who is now lifeless.
"AKANE!!! No!! Don't leave!! Allow me to be a good husband to you, Akane!! Hicks ..."
Repeatedly prince Shibata Katsuie regretted everything. But all of that was in vain. Because the rice has become porridge, and he won't be able to get a chance to fix everything. Because Goddess Akane is gone forever.
Until finally a dazzling light began to shine all over the body of Goddess Akane. And now prince Shibata Katsuie began to witness the most stifling thing in his lifetime, where now he saw the body of Goddess Akane began to perish and turn into small fragments that glittered with the light.
"AKANE!!! I will protect this soul flower crystal stone of yours! I don't care if I have to be a dragon demon like you! I will continue to wait to see you!!"
The sounds of weeping and regretful howls reverberated throughout the palace.
Since the departure of Goddess Akane, prince Shibata Katsuie has increasingly turned quiet and loner. He decided to never marry again. He promises to himself, if one day he will find Goddess Akane in the next world and will repay the love of the Goddess.
Decades, until hundreds of years old prince Shibata Katsuie decided to meditate. Until the soul flower crystal stone belongs to Goddess Akane who as a race of white scaly dragon demon that has fused in the body of prince Shibata Katsuie and has been the power of his life, all this time, slowly it began to turn prince Shibata Katsuie into a white scaly dragon demon. Which in the end occupies and becomes the guardian of the night sky until now.

A year passed, and now finally a portal was seen again in the sky cave that night. Xiao Yu, Ieyasu's warrior and Hidemitsu warrior who had been patiently waiting for Fujin to return now began to sparkle as he watched the portal that looked like a crack in a cave wall that shone so dazzlingly.
Fujin's body and Saika's body still wearing all-black male clothes began to crash from inside the portal in a state of unconsciousness.
While the white scaly dragon demon that was actually the incarnation of prince Shibata Katsuie, it now began to meditate long back at the end of the sky cave tonight. His pair of bluish eyes began to close and still with an aura full of sadness because of his wait waiting for Goddess Akane.
Xiao Yu, the Ieyasu warrior and the Hidemitsu warrior finally decided to take Fujin and Saika away from the night sky cave. And now they rest in an empty old house that happened to be not far from the place.
There were no serious injuries sustained by Fujin or Saika. It's just that they still haven't regained consciousness after being exposed to the illusionary style of the white scales dragon.
Xiao Yu who was quite proficient in magic now started to flow qi/chakra in both hands. Then he starts to channel it to Fujin's body. But Xiao Yu put more emphasis on the face and head of Fujin, so that Fujin immediately regained consciousness with a good memory.
And sure enough, after 15 minutes of doing it, now Fujin began to open his eyes. After that Xiao Yu also did the same to save Saika.
"Thank God that Prince Fujin has regained consciousness and returned" said soldier Ieyasu full of haru and helped Fujin to sit firmly.
Fujin stared at the warrior Ieyasu and the warrior Hidemitsu with a complicated gaze. Because the warrior Ieyasu and Hidemitsu warrior are now seen to have longer hair, have longer whiskers and also have a sideburn. It was as if they had not taken care of themselves for long.
Fujin was trying to remember something. But he remembered nothing except when he was thrown into a portal inside the night sky cave. But Fujin felt very confident that he had been in the other dimension for quite a long time.
"How long have I been gone?" ask Fujin lirih.
I should have been gone long enough. Maybe 10 months, or it's been almost a year.
Inner Fujin estimated it.
"It's been a year, first Prince Fujin." replied soldier Ieyasu in a low tone.
"One year?" fujin murmured with a crinkled forehead.
Oh no! That means I only have 1 year left before the predicted time comes. But ... why do I not remember anything that happened in that other dimension?
Inner Fujin began to turn to look at Saika who now began to realize she began to sit by holding her forehead.
That girl? Why do I feel so familiar when I see it? It felt like I had met him often before. Though I'm only sure and remember if we met for the first time when he was in the border waters. And I saved him from the water demon.
Inner Fujin was still looking at Saika from a distance, while Saika still looked dizzy and sat down by holding her forehead.
