At the moment Lachrahan and Vercheria discovered the parallel butterfly under Kellita’s bed.
Vercheria attempted to destroy the butterfly right there.
The fact that a parallel butterfly existed made her fearful of the variables that might arise in the future.
Vercheria still carried trauma regarding her mother.
“It’s not time yet.”
So, unexpectedly blocking her, Lachrahan was rather bewildered.
“What does that mean?”
“I don’t know everything about all the deities, but I remember who the parallel butterfly was created for.”
As Vercheria blinked, Lachrahan briefly listened to the voice of Rojei coming from outside, then leaned even closer to Vercheria.
“All supernatural beings on the earth are items left behind by the gods, you know?”
“Yes, I know.”
“Who do you think the parallel butterfly was left behind for?”
Vercheria lowered her head.
“Janus.”
Vercheria, who resided on the earth, didn’t know everything about the gods living in the heavenly garden.
But there were stories heard about some famous gods.
Especially, Janus, a peculiar god famous for having two faces.
“While it takes on the form of a butterfly, it can use its power at any time. However, if it is destroyed or receives an impact, serious side effects will occur.”
“Side effects?”
“Although not accurate, you can guess that the changed soul will never be completely unharmed.”
Vercheria’s brow narrowed.
Lachrahan, at the right time, was implying that if he only used the parallel butterfly now, he could subdue both Lawrence and Kellita.
“The opportunity will come for sure.”
While the two were looking at each other, the door suddenly opened without warning, and Rojei came in.
Rojei, who had sent the maids who came to clean away, urgently called the two.
“You need to come out now.”
Lachrahan and Vercheria came out holding the parallel butterfly.
Rojei, anxiously glancing at the corridor, hesitated and asked.
“Where is Princess Kellita really now? Is she already gone, or is there a possibility she can come back?”
Lachrahan and Vercheria exchanged surprised looks.
Whether Rojei was a sensitive person or whether she had noticed the unusually close relationship between Kellita and them, it was unclear. Still, the moment when the reason for helping the two became clear had arrived.
Rojei asked again, looking at both of them alternately.
“Please be honest. Has the princess already passed away, or can she come back?”
Vercheria remembered the conversation she had just had with Lachrahan.
She still didn’t know what would happen to the trapped soul inside the parallel butterfly if it were destroyed.
But the fact that she wouldn’t miss that opportunity was clear.
“Rojei, that is…”
“Maybe she won’t come back.”
At Lachrahan’s words, the gazes of the two women shifted.
“Someone used a deity to place their soul inside Kellita’s body. If she returns to normal, in ordinary cases…”
Lachrahan carefully chose his words so as not to shock Rojei.
But in the current situation, comforting Rojei and giving her hope for something unlikely couldn’t be done.
“Most likely, she will die. Unable to endure it.”
Rojei’s face noticeably stiffened.
She fidgeted her fingers anxiously, then looked up.
“Is there really no hope? If you two help, isn’t there at least a possibility?”
Seeing Lachrahan shaking his head, Rojei let out a long sigh.
The situation was clearly much worse than she had suspected.
“I’ll help you escape without being noticed. Come this way.”
Rojei walked ahead as if she had no relationship with the two.
As the distance from Kellita’s room increased, she exchanged glances with them and quietly distanced herself.
Leaving behind the message that if they needed help again, they should ask.
Watching that, Lachrahan said, “Little by little, things will change even in the royal family.”
With the appearance of Vercheria, the goddess of weather, a confrontation with Emperor Gerard was inevitable.
People would gradually try to establish their position between Vercheria and Gerard.
“Don’t think too badly of human instincts. When the time comes, their actions might be helpful.”
Humans siding with Vercheria could be a threatening factor to the absolute deity depending on the circumstances.
“What was the scariest thing for the absolute deity?”
“Humans capable of killing or harming deities.”
“Yeah, that’s right. Like you in the past or me now.”
Lachrahan smiled bitterly, recalling events from a long time ago.
“She thought that if humans couldn’t kill or harm deities, they would be respected and perfected.”
The reason the absolute deity opposed their love so vehemently was precisely because of this.
“If humans are on your side and believe your words, the absolute deity will feel threatened. So, if possible, take care of people who hate Gerard.”
“I’ll do that.”
At that moment, the sound of another group of people approaching reached the two who were facing each other.
Even though they were somewhat away from Kellita’s room, it was still not the end of the party.
