After that incident a whole 2 weeks had passed. Citizens of the New Lionheart City are worried about Eugene Lionheart's unexpected disappearance, and even kings of the different countries who came to meet with Eugene Lionheart. 

‎‎Members of the Lionheart Mansion were also deeply worried about Eugene's disappearance. Gi lead, the previous head of the family, looked for Eugene everywhere, but he didn't find a trace of him. Ancilla, wife of Gilead, couldn't understand what was going on. Where did he suddenly run off to? Cyan and Ciel also look desperately for him. 

‎‎Ciel couldn't help but get a feeling Noir Gia balla was missing that night, and the demon also got missing. It's not like they both ran up to somewhere, right? with a worried expression. Ciel stopped for a moment to think, but she knew she shared drinks with Noir Gia Balla because she truly admired her now because of her genius mind as well as her ultimate talent for building cities; who could have thought someone could make a whole city within just one month? She couldn't help but feel admiration towards her. As she thought there was also someone in the bar, sienna mer dain lady sienna was also there.

‎‎So she decided to go back to Lionheart Mansion. She was sitting tightly on the wyvern's body; she crossed the distance from Sambar Forest to Pado Monian within only 2 hours. 

‎‎She landed her wyvern on the Lionheart mansion forest. As she landed on the ground, she was simply left shocked because Uncle Vermouth, Sir Molon, Lady Anise, Seinna, and even Kristiana were deep in conversation, taking something truly important. She fastly approached their direction. 

Ciel asked, "What all were you doing here in the forest, sitting in the chamber room? Was something truly important conversation going on? 

‎‎Vermouth immediately said with a smile, "Oh, Ciel, you were here! I think you also get to know about what we were talking about, right? 

‎‎Ciel immediately answered, "It's about Eugene, right?" 

‎‎Vermouth sharply nodded and said, "You also sit down; we were just going to start the conversation." As she he patted the seat on the sofa to let her sit beside him. 

‎‎Ciel didn't hesitate, and she simply sat down beside Vermouth. 

‎‎Anise sharply tapped on the table with an angry expression. She asked Sienna, "Oye, chick, how long are you going to hide the truth about what happened between Eugene and Noir? Why were you desperately searching for that bitch, and where is Hamel? Why are you not saying anything?" 

‎‎Sienna immediately replied to Anise with an angry expression as well: "Don't call her a bitch. You don't know anything about her. You don't know about her worse fate or why they are bound together with a twisted fate."

‎‎How do we know when you don't even tell us, Sienna? You are deeply attached to Noir. I also sympathize with Noir because of that fate. They are lengths to sympathize with her. Do you also give her 10 years to live? Why did you do that? You just need to release her soul so that she can just go after time to pay off her crimes. Anise asked with a twisted expression.

"Anise, calm down! But of all that she did, I also don't forget 300 years ago we faced a tough time because of her. But now when I know about her true identity and even her worse fate with Eugene, she didn't do it because she wanted to; she was simply forced to do it because of her fate. As your 10 years say, I can give a whole eternity to her to live with Eugene; she definitely deserves that. Sienna said in a calm voice. 

‎‎Anise frowned and said, "Aren't you worried about your relationship with Eugene? You said you trapped her soul because you don't want her to become Hamel's eternal nightmare; that's why you do that, and also, you are fiercely jealous of Noir, right? 

‎‎That's right! Sienna shouted as she also tapped on the table, and she continued, "At first because I don't want her to reincarnate again to come looking for us, but now I came to an understanding: her bond with Eugene is much stronger than mine and yours also. We only know Hamel for 300 years; unlike her, she knew Eugene from their ancient era, and also they are bonded by fate; it's impossible to make distance between them; if one died, the other would suffer the rest of their life."

‎‎Anise was sharply gazing at Sienna, and she was also doing the same with a hand. Someone silenced them and said, "Calm down, both of you. Take a breath and calm your emotions." 

‎‎Vermouth was left with no choice but to step between them; as a result, both sit down on their seats without any argument. 

‎‎Vermouth didn't know about Eugene and Noir's relationship, but he had asked him in the past, so he simply said she was her saintess of that time. And why did you try to kill her if you already know her from the past? So he just said, "I don't know; it's inevitable that our end is this way. 

‎‎Vermouth also saw him multiple times about Eugene's ring necklace, but he never asked him why he wore that necklace. How could he have asked him in the first place? 

‎‎With a worried expression, Vermouth turned his gaze towards Sienna as he asked her, "How long will it take when Eugene comes?" 

‎‎Seinna immediately replied, "He just might be here at any moment." 

‎‎Throughout this conversation neither Kristiana nor Ciel said anything; they both just listened quietly. Kristiana clutched her skirts quietly with a worried expression, and Ciel was just biting her lips with a trembling expression. What is she even saying? She already gave up on Eugene. What's the point of being in a forced relationship? She'll just wait and forget him, and even after nothing changes, she'll leave him alone. 

‎‎As for Noir, she already knew she was someone special to Eugene because of their ancient era bond. She thought to herself, It couldn't be past bonds are much stronger than present bonds. 

‎ ‎"PhewPhew," Ciel said sympathetically.

‎‎Molon was waiting silently for Eugene because he was the only one who could tell us the whole truth. 

‎‎Both Mer and Rai Mira were mentally talking to each other. 

Mer, what is going on? Benefactor didn't even meet us in this whole 2 weeks? 

‎‎Mer replied with a pout. 

‎‎[You idiot, how should I know it's between Noir and Eugene? It's already happened in the past, but this time is really too much.] 

Rai Mira replied wryly. 

‎"Their relationship must be stronger than mother and stepmother," said with a sigh. 

‎‎Mer retorted quickly. 

‎[Yeah, you're right; their bond of fate is quite something.] 

‎‎Eugene opened his eyes with a trembling expression; he blinked multiple times, focused his gaze, leapt from the bed, and sat down on the bed and was lost in a deep thought. 

‎‎How long did I sleep? It's not like I slept for 3 - 4 months. Right, maybe just 1 - 2 weeks had passed, Eugene thought to himself with a wry grin. 

‎‎Could I go out? But could he face the world? Now he didn't know he was living in his delusion that he saved the world because of his powers alone. 

‎‎Eugene slapped himself hard on his face. Someone had sacrificed her very existence to ensure my victory over that destruction. 

‎She just died not once but twice at my hands and even suffered my hatred; despite having a harsh fate, she simply smiled back at me. 

‎‎Now Eugene understands why Noir wanted to become enemies, why they tried to kill each other, and why Noir offered to let him live with her in an eternal dream just because she feared my death. 

Could Sienna find Noir? He didn't know; he hardly even thought that she would come to look at him, not because she hated him now but because she feared how he could face her. 

‎‎what could I do? He already knows the truth from Noir that he desperately wanted to know. There is still something left for him to know. Why did only Noir have to suffer such a tragic fate? Can the God of Giants not make the promise or any other gods and goddesses of fate? She knew everything right.

‎‎He recalled what Noir had said: when both of us are free from our divine promise, she will come meet us. Eugene couldn't, but he needed to wait for the goddess of fate because of his remaining question; only she could answer it. 

‎‎But Eugene came with a sudden thought: could the goddess of fate truly be alive now? Did you know every god had died from the ancient era? He doesn't know if Noir said she'll come, so she definitely will come. 

‎‎Eugene had genuine trust in each and every word of noir. 

‎‎But could he contact the goddess of fate? Eugene thought a twisted expression. 

‎‎Before there was something he needed to do, he simply left his room and went where Sienna and the rest of his companions were sitting. They were discussing something, and he already knew what that conversation was about; he moved towards that direction. 

‎‎Seinna immediately sensed his presence and said, "He's here." 

‎‎She looked behind her with a trembling expression because Eugene was worse than she thought. She could also see a red mark on his face, as it looked like he tried to harm himself. Not only her, but everyone in the meeting chamber looked over Eugene with a truly horrible expression because they saw him like this. 

‎‎Anise and Kristiana looked at Eugene with wide eyes; their lips were closing and opening without any sound. 

‎‎Ceil, Molon, and Vermouth also never saw Eugene like this; they came to an understanding. It's really, truly important that Eugene will tell them now. 

‎‎Mer and Rai Mira were trying to move towards Eugene, but they stopped for a moment because of Sienna's fierce gaze. That gaze alone told them to go to their places and don't say anything; they simply moved to their places and sat down quietly. 

‎‎Eugene quietly sat down beside Sienna with a calm expression. He looked at everyone; those gazes alone told him they were extremely worried about him. With a heavy sigh, he said to Sienna, "Did you find her? 

‎‎Sienna simply shook her head with a truly sad expression and said, "I look for her every place in the continent, but I couldn't find her, and there is not a single trace of her anywhere. 

‎‎"Is that so? "I already expected that," Eugene said with a weak voice as he looked to everyone and had said, "I'm truly sorry I made each of you worried." 

‎‎Vermouth said with a sad smile, "You don't need to apologize; there must be something that you can't tell immediately. We understand you and your emotions. 

‎‎Everyone sharply nodded at Vermouth's response. Anise hesitated for a moment, but she also nodded. 

‎‎"Where did I start? This is something it's truly difficult to believe. I don't know whether you believe me or not, I don't know," Eugene said awkwardly. 

‎ ‎Anise simply said, "We believe each and every word of your Hamel until now. I don't know what you need to say. I feel like it's extremely important we will absolutely believe your words."

"‎"That's right!" everyone shouted in agreement. 

Eugene didn't waste any time; at last, he looked at Sienna, who was nodding sharply with a tearful expression, and he explained everything that Noir had said to him. 

‎‎About their divine promise of eternal truth. How they end up in a cruel fate and why Noir had to be forced to do what she doesn't want to; how she reincarnates as demon folk, forcing me to be enemies and try to kill each other; they will inevitably end this way; and why she couldn't tell him the truth of that divine promise? And why was she destined to die at his hands? Why did Aria do this? Because she dreamt of a peaceful era one day, and she just served as a sacrifice for my reincarnation, and this is because the goddess of fate was plotting. 

‎‎everyone who was sitting in the meeting ‎Chamber silently observed each word of Eugene; they couldn't help tears coming to each of their eyes, and even Vermouth, who never cried no matter what happened, tears started to come from his eyes as well. 

"‎"That's it," Eugene said with a low voice. He also did not meet any of his companion's gazes; he slowly lifted his gaze and looked at everyone he could. He saw everyone was crying, trying to lift his burden. 

‎‎Vermouth said firstly, "That's a hell of a cruel story. I see now why you couldn't tell immediately about this. How could you even tell it's not some kind of immediate conversation that needed to be told? It's a cursed truth."

Anise bit her lips hardly with a tearful expression. She knew Noir was obsessed with Eugene, but why? Even their fate was too cruel. How can someone go to such lengths for a certain someone's happiness? 

‎‎Anise couldn't help it; even her whole life, she didn't get what a true purpose of a saint is because she was someone who was artificially born. The same goes for Kristina; she looked at her, continuing to cry. Anise got a feeling she had a deep respect towards Noir now. She knew what place she had in Eugene's heart; not only that, but she also came to know how a saint can do anything for her God's sake, even go against fate. 

‎‎Could she ask about noir? But what she'll ask, after a clear revelation of truth, is if she still has a doubt about how Noir is ready to become Eugene's sacrifice; if it's true, doesn't it feel like his victory over destruction is simply Noir's sacrifice? 

‎‎She couldn't help wanting to ask this about it, but she stopped because Eugene's condition is simply too hard to see him like this. So she just released a long sigh and controlled herself. 

‎‎Molon, Ciel & Kristina couldn't control their emotions. Tears from their cheeks flowed uncontrollably. Sienna already knew the truth, but still her eyes were bloodshot with tears. 

‎‎Mer and Raimira tightly hug each other and cry nonstop without holding back. They didn't really know Noir Gabelle really went through a lot. Every time they see her, it doesn't seem like she has such a tragic story; now she just wears a mask to hide her emotions from the world. 

‎‎Ramira said 

Mer Merdian, this lady knows Mis Gabialla, quite a huge personality. That time in Helmuth, I always wanted to meet her once in my life. When I meet her, I get an understanding she's really hiding a huge truth or something.
