Chapter 104: Elena''s Destiny (1)


    While Jin Jun will bring ughter and suffering to the cultivators of the younger generation who are roaming the hidden realm before starting his invasion of the world outside the portal realm, Axel is caressing Aizen and Ana''s hair with great affection, away from the chaos that is happening on the surface.


    His eyes look very soft with a warm smile that always radiates on his face whenever he strokes the two loved ones who are asleep on hisp.


    It had been several hours since the energy surge caused a slight turmoil in all of them and forced their superior bodies to fall into a sleep state to neutralize all of the energy back.


    Even though it is called neutralizing, the energy surge that has appeared so suddenly is not bad. Axel who didn''t have the same reaction because she was already at [Rank 9 Grade 1] now managed to go up one grade due to the energy surge a few hours ago.


    "Master Aizen, Sister Ana... Wake up soon. You have sessfully broken through to [Rank 4]. There are so many things I want to share with the two of you immediately..." Axel muttered with a longing expression.


    It is very risky for her to tell too many things to the two of them as it would be a bad bacsh if everything was shared directly on the system. Even things that are hard to believe, including the existence of her whole self.


    She still hides a few things from them until the right timees, starting from her soulful self to detailed adventures of what she got from the ancient ruins to upgrade all the technology possessed by [Axel Goddess].


    Now that the time hade when the two of them reached [Rank 4], she couldn''t wait to share everything she wanted to say and what she wanted them to know by linking their souls together in one system as well.


    Not long after, Aizen''s eyes twitched for a moment before he opened his eyes. What he saw the first time were tworge mountains and Axel smiling warmly at him.


    "Wee back and congrattions on reaching [Rank 4], Master Aizen." Axel ced her hand on Aizen''s cheek while stroking it gently.


    "I''ve broken through to [Rank 4]? Oh yeah, I''m already in grade 5 too... Because of the sudden energy surge just now, huh?" Aizen sighed at the sight of his current status as [Rank 4 Grade 5] in his system.


    He closed his eyes for a moment to enjoy this moment where he turned Axel''sp into a pillow and her soft hand stroked his cheek.


    "Mhmm..." Ana opened her eyes slowly as she woke up from her sleep, her body''s energy neutralization wasplete and now she is on the same level as Aizen.


    "Wee back and congrattions on reaching [Rank 4], Sister Ana." Axel said the same words as before.


    "It''s morning already? How long have I slept? Let me sleep a little longer." Ana muttered deliriously.


    "We''re in a foreign zone, let''s get up quickly." Aizen immediately raised himself to a sitting position and pinched the cheek of his sleeping daughter.


    "Muu... Kyu... I wake up, I''m awake... Don''t pinch my cheeks like that, what if my cheeks be looseter?" Ana immediately got up to a sitting position while puffing out her cheeks and stroking the part of the cheek that had been pinched.


    "If that''s going to happen then I''ll rub your cheek to get it to tighten again." Aizen was amused by Ana''s behavior, he only joined in her little joke.


    "Really? Then, now stroke my cheek that you pinched." Ana pointed her pinched cheek at Aizen. Actually, she didn''t feel any pain, and only wanted to be pampered by Aizen.


    Aizen happily did so and gently stroked Ana''s soft cheek, resulting in happy giggles from thetter.


    "Master Aizen, Sister Ana... Seven Fairies still needs a few more moments before they wake up... I can keep my promise because the two of you are already in [Rank 4], can we do it now?" Axel interrupted while looking at the seven girls who still didn''t show any signs of getting up soon.


    "So we decided on their squad name with Seven Fairies? Yes, at least it''s better than servants." Ana put a finger to her chin when she saw the seven girls who had entered the list of prospective members of her family.


    "You look in a hurry. When I don''t think about it anymore, you just bring up this topic again. Huff... If you already feel you and we are ready, please do it."


    Aizen took a deep breath and exhaled again. The crucial moment finally arrived, the thing that made him suspicious because he realized thisst night and asked Axel directly.


    "I did it for many reasons which you will find out in a moment. Please bring your faces together, let me do the rest, and please don''t deny the slightest bit of energy that wille pouring into you." Axel put one hand over her chest as she said sincerely.


    Aizen and Ana said no more and just nodded, the two of them brought their faces together and brought themselves closer to Axel.


    Next, Axel set up a multiyered energy barrier for them and the seven girls who still hadn''t awakened before activating an extremelyplicated rune right between the three of them, her eyes turning golden once again.


    "Let me connect our souls together in one inseparable unity." Axel seemed to chant a spell then brought her face closer to the faces of Aizen and Ana who were close to each other, she touched their foreheads with her forehead.


    The intricate golden rune that was attached and swirled between them glowed and the physical contact between their foreheads also lit up with a sacred aura.


    The memories of the three of them were shared directly into their system, the souls of the three of them were immediately connected by a very strong and inseparable bond, and their consciousness plunged into the connected realm.


    The memories of Aizen that were shared with Ana and Axel were not new because he didn''t keep many secrets to the people closest to him who could not possibly betray him. Meanwhile, Ana''s memories that were shared were not much new besides the details of how much love she had for her daddy.


    The most shocking thing was Axel''s memory. One of the most surprising things besides everything rted to the hidden realm is that Axel has an agreement with two spirits who live somewhere in Axel''s [Consciousness Mind] and now one of them is in front of them.


    "E. Elena? You are Elena, right?"


    Aizen stuttered a little and immediately took the hands of the beautiful woman who was smiling warmly at their arrival. Even though he already knew the answer from the memory that Axel had just shared, he still needed to confirm it.


    "Yes, dear. I am your Elena. Please forgive me..." Elena sobbed as she said the things she had practiced over and over and was unable to continue her sentence as tears continued to flow from her spirit form.


    She had been looking forward to this after over a thousand years of struggling not to fall into an evil spirit after her death. Elena has refused to go to the afterlife just because of Aizen and Ana. She kept a close eye on the two of them without anyone noticing that she was there and living with them.


    Elena is amazed at how Aizen raised Ana alone without looking for another life partner and she is delighted that the fruit of their love has grown into such a wonderful daughter.


    After Elena said goodbye to her mother who went to the afterlife, and when she thought she could go to the afterlife in peace too after years with her two remaining loved ones, things suddenly took a turn for the worse.


    Ana suddenly bes strange and seems to hate Aizen just because of the confusion she experienced in her teenage years. Elena tried countless times to tell Aizen her problem without even sess and she tried her best to tell her daughter to clear up her daughter''s confusion which was also fruitless.


    She lost her intention of going to the afterlife in peace because of her loved ones once again until death fetched Aizen without the wind or warning. Elena clearly saw Aizen''s spirit and soul disappear from his body as if trapped in the realm of the world.


    Elena panicked and didn''t know what had happened but could only cry with her daughter on top of Aizen''s lifeless body. The crazy thing that Ana did really makes Elena return to the world, Elena tries her best not to let the soul and spirit of her beloved daughter clean from the dark energy that has started to envelop her.


    Because she has been stuck in the world for years, somehow her soul and spirit have be one unit into a subtle existence. Elena could only cry one more time when her daughter''s soul and spirit also suddenly disappeared when her daughter killed herself after leaving the mission to [Axel Goddess].


    Everything that happened Elena didn''t understand anymore, even her existence. She can no longer go to the afterlife because she has be a subtle existence, she can only fall asleep beside her husband and daughter who are kept with advanced technology at [Axel Goddess] in the hope that the nightmare will end soon.
