Chapter 578: Three lifetimes waiting for you (2)

A Great Conqueror that would probably leave his name in posterity to be remembered generation after generation.

Rising to become the most powerful noble house in the world, signing an agreement with the Darklands, opening a new chapter between the relationship of the Humankind and Demonkind

It seems like Arial third life is the grandest of them all. In his first life, there were many things that he wanted to do but was constrained by the game of nobles. 

But, at least it was glorious.

In his second life, he could not bloom, dying as a small foot soldier, unable to fulfill his wish. 

But at the same time, it is the unfulfilled desire of his second life that shaped him and motivate him in his third life

It is because of the regrets in his second life that he had able to move steadfastly in his third life.

Whatever it takes. Amara had seen it all and she had been watching over him. 

Fate and destiny revolves around him in his third life, blessing him with fortune and send down tribulations after tribulations to forge him

He had sacrifice his youth, honing himself to try to avert a calamity and rose to a high position as the consequences of that. 

In his third life, there is no one in the mortal world could stop him whenever and whatever he wanted to do. 

When he is angry, the world would tremble, the Heaven and Earth would be affected.

He is able to form clouds or rain with the flip of his hand. 

The Edenian Empire, ruling the fairest part of the lands of the Human Continent 

As an observer, Amara notices something about Arial life. In the life where he meets with Rhyssa, that life would be an interesting one.

It would be a life full of adventure and joy. But because of his destiny, joy is not easily gained and happiness is always fleeting

They were bonded in a bond that could not be cut. 

They seek for each other even without knowing it. Amara think this has something to do with what happen in Arial first life

A bond that could never be broken. 

In the first life, Arial and Rhyssa were together like a pair of lovebirds. Amara were very happy for them until tragedy struck.

A wish is given, and a wish is taken.

In the second life, Arial did not meet Rhyssa and vice versa. And what happens? Arial did not shine and Rhyssa did not feel love.

Without Rhyssa in his life, Arial did not shine. And without Arial in her life, she lost color and die alone surrounded by demon soldiers ravaging her capital

He needs the Sun. And she needs Arial.

In his third life, destiny is getting crazy. 

He met her, but fate and destiny is pushing and pulling these two lovebirds. Amara understood it. After all, sometimes absence make the heart grows fonder.

And love is sometimes all about timing.

Rhyssa fell in love with him the moment she laid her eyes on him

Like a remnant of a memory, of an emotion so strong that it seems to travel lifetime to lifetime.

But in the end, this time Amara is hoping a happy ending for the two lovebirds. 

She takes a deep breath and close her eyes. In that brief second it is like the lives of these two lovebirds flashed inside her mind

She then opens her eyes. There is a smile on her face

Amara chuckles by herself as she seems to remember something

'It is funny how everything come full circle' she thought to herself. 

She after all sees all of that happens in Heaven and Earth and because she was trusted by the Creator, she was not affected by the changing of timelines

In the first life of Arial, he courted Rhyssa with almost method available. He is a bit clumsy, a bit immature and childish, but he was honest and straightforward. 

And a bit dense sometimes. A bright child that sees the good in everyone

A typical hero. 

He fell in love with Rhyssa since they first met. Rhyssa is born with an exotic beauty

The beauty attracts him, her personality charms him and her heart touched him. 

So, begins his effort of trying to make that heart his

He always come running for her. 

The words braving seas of fire and mountain of knives is not exaggerated if it comes to Arial effort for trying to make Rhyssa fall in love with him

They travelled the seas and the desert searching for adventure, fighting the bandits of the day and fought off against conspiracy of the world

But, in that lifetime, he was a hero. And she was a monarch. Their status is also different. They love each other fiercely and passionately but this did not mean that they did not have problem

Being straightforward, being honest and kind in a world that does not know to appreciate it, Arial was schemed and plotted against.

Arial sacrifices a lot for her. Most of it she did not know until the moment came for them to part.

He was the one chasing her in that lifetime. 

How peculiar is it that in this lifetime, Rhyssa is the one that is chasing for him?

Destiny and fate does seem to have some sort of humor. 

They make fools of mortals. Amara is quite interested what would happen to the love story of Arial and Rhyssa this time

Considering this is the last time. 

The Sun would shine. The Moon wanes. 

She had seen the woman in Arial life and she had understood some of her vision. She also has a stake in this battle

Velamina represent the Spring Dance. 

Helia represent the Winter Snow. 

Tatiana, this woman of complicated origin and relationship with Arial represent Autumn and Rhyssa represent the Summer Rain.

Velamina fate and destiny is connected with Arial. The Starseeker and the Conqueror

But it is still not time for them to meet with each other to complete their destiny. Fortunately, Velamina understood that and went away. 

For she too had a great destiny. To nurture the birth of a righteous King, to become the mother of the world.

The son of Arial and Velamina, the son that he did not know he have, would lit up the fire of civilization in the land of Asteros, bringing upon a great golden age to Asteros warring states

But that is for another story. 

As for Helia, she was meant as a tribulation. And what a tribulation she is.

Sorrow and loneliness was the price. 

As for Tatiana, she is meant to teach Arial forgiveness and redemption.

That is however still a work in progress. 

And then there is Rhyssa. That sweet child, blessed by the Heaven and Earth, a summer rain that would shine all the Darkness and bring joy and happiness to him.

And happiness to her. 

They complete each other and complemented each other.

If Arial succeed in the Final Battle, there might a happy ending for him after all. 

If not, then the destiny of all the people in the world would also have to change. There is many fixed point in destiny and fate.

But for this battle in particular, The Creator did not lock in certain destiny or fate. He wanted the world to choose. He wanted it to be fair.

Morningstar deserve a fair fight. If the conclusion is determined from the start, Morningstar would never be convinced.

He would believe he is right. 

And the Creator had given his Light to Asrana so that he would be able to exercise his Will on Earth and bring down the curtain of the Gods to an End.

After this, even she would be able to rest. He wanted the world to now have free will. She thought about what had happened across the millenniums.

She wanted to recite a poem. 

It is a habit she cultivated as she had live in human cities in the past, roaming the streets of the prosperous Salingian dynasty.

Tonight, she felt sentimental. She closed her eyes and then begin reciting poems.

"I am the one that bring about the End of the Age of the Gods

Visiting the holy mountain and passes by the Elven Forest,

Leon dances with his Spear and Salvatore cried toward the Heaven,

A maiden cried in the red decorated boudoir,

How long has time passes,

Who sings such a sorrowful song in the red decorated boudoir?

Who would raise up their sword and bring an end to the fallen Gods?

The Stars shines brightly in the sky,

Passing by the holy mountain again,

Climbing the mountain to warm my pot of wine

I, now heated my wine and wish for drunkenness

Reciting poems and sing Songs, 

A carefree life in divine abode,

She sighed and opened his eyes. Looking at the people and the world, she smiles. Then she closes her eyes again. Waiting for the night to descend
