40 Chapter 40: Making A Decision Part 2 (1/2)
”Imprison them again?” Life suggested.
”That won't work. The seals in the Astral Temple are all destroyed and even if we fix them keeping them locked up forever is not a feasible option.” What Archia said was true. The seals took up too much energy and when they were replaced by their successors, they could not maintain them. And if they were released in the future, it would cause a bigger mess. Better to deal with them now and find them a place where they can't cause trouble.
”We also have to consider the position of their replacements,” Life added. After they were sealed away, someone else had to do their tasks so the the of them selected replace mental.
”Luckily there are only 4 that were replaced so far,” Time commented.
”So how about the rest just take up their old posts?” Archia suggested.
”But...” Life began but was cut off by Archia.
”With a new Almighty and the war ended, they have no reason to cause trouble. They might want revenge, but Atiri's smart. She won't let them go overboard. Besides they have experience and will not mess up.”
Clearly not happy, Life could only sit there and complain to himself.
Ignoring him, Archia turn to Time. ”I still can't accept that you replaced Atiri so quickly.”
”I had no choice!” Time defended, ”The role she played was too important. Heaven would not have functioned normally without her and her power.” The room became silent. ”If I could have one her position open, I would have, ” he whispered. The silence reigned once again.
Archia, unwilling to say anything, stayed silent. After a while, Life could no longer deal with the gloomy atmosphere and decided to put an end to the matter.
Standing up, he pointed at them accusingly and reprimanded, ”If you want her to have the position, then make it happen!”
”I can't just make it happen!” Knowledge says, sneering.
”Why not!?” Life argues.
”Why not!? Way not!? Had you taken even a second to think over the situation you would know why!”
Seeing the situation getting out of hand, Time interrupts with, ”Calm down. There is no need to fight. We'll just settle this matter at a later date.”
”Absolutely not!” Life yells. ”The both of you keep will keep pushing back the decision! So let's decide things now!”
