Chapter 308: Summoned By The Goddess (2/2)

”You didn't,” the Goddess replied in a tantalizing soft voice.

”Why am I back here?” Lawrend asked.

”I found it hilarious that you were able to trick one of my angels.”

”...That's it?”

It felt anticlimactic to him as he expected her to have a shocking reason why he was back here again.

”NO. I called you here to tell you that you aren't the same soul that I recognize. Did you swallow the memories of that guy?” the Goddess asked as her eyes turned cold and serious.

”He wanted to kill me, but I won. In the first place, I was the one occupying this body. He was like a parasite,” Lawrend replied calmly.

”Hm? Interesting,” the Goddess replied with a smile on her face.

”Is there anything else?” Lawrend asked.

”There is. Beware of what you're doing. If you scratched the wrong place or too deeply, you would end up dead,” the Goddess answered.

”I know. Also, why did you put me here in this world? You could have chosen anyone, and I didn't have any particular goal, do I?” Lawrend asked.

”You were chosen not by me. I don't care what you do in my world as long as you don't destroy it.”

”Then, who? Was it the 'him' you were talking about before?” Lawrend asked.

”Him… Yes. I don't know why he chose you and why he chose me,” the Goddess replied as she turned her head and looked distantly.

”Chose you?” Lawrend asked in confusion.

”Enough. I will give you this. If you show this to the Great Saraphiel, she'd obey one command of you that isn't too excessive,” the Goddess said as she passed a perfectly triangular flat piece of metal.

”This is..?”

Lawrend looked at it with a confused look on his face. It looked like someone used a plasma cutter to cut a perfect triangle on a sheet of steel metal.

”That's a triangle,” the Goddess replied.

”I know, but what the heck? This thing doesn't look special,” Lawrend replied.

”You don't have to know what it is.”

Suddenly, his vision darkened and the Goddess disappeared.

”Done. Human, can you let go of me already?” Ramiela's voice sounded in front of Lawrend.

He instantly opened his eyes and looked around him. He was back in the dining room and every one of his maids was looking at him with looks of concern.

”What happened?” Lawrend asked.

”What do you mean, 'What happened?'? We did a soul contract. Don't tell me that the soul contract took a part of your memories with it?” Ramiela asked as she stared at him like she was looking at an idiot.

”Master, the two of you were covered in a cocoon of white light. It was weird,” Elena replied to him.

”Huh?”

Ramiela stared at Elena in confusion.

”It's true. It didn't happen before but it happened just now,” Humility said.

Lawrend opened his hand and stared at the perfectly flat triangle inside it.
