”You knew about him too...?” he asked in surprise.

How come he is the only one who doesn't know who is this Messenger is? Since the beginning, the Oracle Clan is the one guiding him.

Eu looks at him quizzically. It is quite a surprise the Divine Lord doesn't know who the Messenger is. After all, he is a Divine Guardian.

”I read books.” Eu discloses.

The Divine Lord looks at Eu quizzically and wonders what kind of books is she reading. Though, she is telling the truth when she disclosed where she learned about the Messenger.

Meanwhile, Eu shrugs and heaves a heavy sigh. She can't elaborate on the person's existence.

His very existence is a mystery across all known realms.

”Do you want to discuss about the Messenger or the reason why I sent you away?” Eu asked, changing the subject.

The Divine Lord Foeni decided to forgo the issue and let her explain. How can she lie about things and put her life in jeopardy?

”I'm sorry for not disclosing about what will happen in Limes Temple. I know you would stay and protect this place rather than lead the guards defending the Southern Forest...” Eu lowers her head as she apologizes.

The Divine Lord listened to her reasons and understood her point. He truly won't leave if he knew.

Nothing is more important than her safety. Everyone is capable of defending themselves without him leading them, yet none of them would consider saving Noite or his men.

”But you understood why you had to be there, right?” Eu finally asked.

He remained silent while the Divine Witch listens to their discussion. She is curious about what transpired in the Southern Forest.

The two continue their exchanges, and Eu always finds an excuse to argue with the Divine Lord. It started to exhaust him and finally ended the argument.

”For whatever reason, you are not allowed to do this again! As a citizen of my jurisdiction, I order you to disclose everything and let me handle them.” the Divine Lord told Eu.

”But I told you. You have to save him... It is necessary...” Eu refuted.

The Divine Lord decided to let it go but reminded her once again. He won't allow her to do such a thing and always keeps her by his side.

”Okay, fine. If it puts you at ease, I will not keep valuable information from you. Still, it doesn't mean I will let you interfere.” Eu said.

He remained silent as he heaves a sigh. He understands that she has indeed done everything in his best interest.

How can he deny that she has fortified some barriers on his behalf and save small communities beyond his reach? Everything she has done is to help him maintain his jurisdiction.

She even trained better men to secure his Realm. Even the information network she created was impeccable.

”Excuse me...” Circe interrupted his train of thoughts.

He doesn't know how to begin his explanation about everything. Eu has a better understanding of what is currently happening.

Meanwhile, Eu looks at him as she awaits the Divine Lord's permission. She will disclose the information she has gathered only with his consent.

He nods his head as a sign of his approval, and Eu responded as she smiles.

Eu finally decided to inform her about the events in Mystic Spirit and the involvement of the Lords of Nether Realm. The Divine Witch can't contain her surprise as she digests everything she said.

She hasn't met the brothers. Still, their legacy as the Silver-haired Heroes who assisted Lady Emilia during the Era of Change has reached her ears.

Everyone knows they are allies, so why are these legendary brothers creating a disturbance?

”I really cannot answer that. We must wait for Noite's return. He can shed more light on the matter.” Eu responded.

The two Divine Guardians nod as they accepted her suggestion. No one knew what occurred in the Nether Realm that led to the brothers' actions.

They started to contemplate the situation unfolding before them. Ravikanth is about to say something, but Eu interrupted him and spoke first.

”Brother Ravi, you really need to rest. Please don't overthink it. Let's talk again when you are well rested as well...” Eu said.

He remained silent as he finally feels the exhaustion from last night's intense fighting and his flight. He doesn't want to admit it, but he is beyond exhausted as well.

”Very well. I'll come back again and talk to you about something very important. Don't go wandering around without my knowledge.” the Divine Lord reminded Eu.

The Divine Witch is surprised to hear Eu called the Lord Foeni casually. A Divine is expected to discard their name and use their new names after all.

Meanwhile, the Divine Lord Foeni pats Eu's head before leaving the room. He has a gentle smile on his handsome face as he says goodbye to her.

As soon as the door closes, the Divine Witch can't hold her thoughts anymore. She's been wanting to ask ever since she met her earlier that day.

”Eu, tell me the truth. You are not a Celesean, are you? You are from a different Realm. Are you an Astral? Are you the Messenger?” Circe asked.

She started to bombard her with questions as she pours out her thoughts. She can't help this girl is not disclosing the truth about her identity.

Eu turned to face her as she smiles.

”No, I am not. I am an Oracle from Celesea... I am Eu.” Eu replied with a calm, gentle smile.
