Chapter 628 Unpredictable
While helping the little girl dress, "Angus, this is also your fault. Didn't I tell you not to come when Anna is still not wearing her clothes properly? Now, look what you did?!! What if someone sees her?!!" nagged Jayna to Angus.
Angus could only release a sigh. He knows Jayna already gave up lecturing the naughty Anna and decides to vent it at him. After wearing her clothes properly, Anna suddenly made a sharp turn and intensely looked at the pillar columns in the corner.
"Anna, what's wrong?!" called Angus as he felt nothing from the pillar.
Anna didn't reply and approached the big pillar. Then, she looked behind the pillar. They find twin black-haired little girls with creepy smiles and eerie black eyes. The moment Angus sees them makes him remember a creepy porcelain doll from the earth.
"A twin?!" said Jayna confusedly.
On the other hand, Angus is curious about the twin girls. He couldn't see their presence at all.
'I didn't feel any malicious intent from them. No. I don't feel anything from them. It is like they are just there, like nature. Even my stealth skill is unable to do this kind of thing. Just who are they?' thought Angus inwardly.
Despite the sudden appearance of the twin girls, Angus didn't worry since his sharp instinct didn't warn him of any danger. He also somehow feels a familiar feeling like Mira from them.
While Angus is curious about the twin, Anna and the twin girls stare silently at each other. Suddenly, the twin girls break the stare and face each other while releasing a mischievous giggle. At this moment, Angus' silent instinct feels like trouble will come.
*Shing* *Shing* The two girls shine brightly before turning into someone else. On the spot of the twin girls, there are two identical Anna, even their dresses are identical to the real Anna.
"Fiuh… Just a mirror." commented the real Anna.
"Anna is Anna." said the twin Anna.
"No, Anna is Anna. Anna is not Anna." said the real Anna while pointing at the twin.
"Anna is Anna." said one of the twin Anna.
"Yup, Anna is Anna." said the other twin Anna.
They keep bantering about 'Anna is Anna' for a while. On the other hand, Angus and Jayna didn't know what to do since they never thought someone could imitate the naughty Anna and her way of talking. The last time it happens is when the dungeon sweeper becomes Anna.
Feels like losing voice against the twin Anna, the real Anna grumbled and pouted.
"Not fair. Anna V1 came out!!" said Anna.
A black tendril appeared from her shadow before shaping into another Anna. Seeing now they are even numbers, the four identical Anna suddenly makes the same mischievous smile while Angus feels a bad premonition.
*Snap* Another shadow tendril covers all four Anna for a moment before disappearing
"Angus, Big sis, which one is Anna?!" said all four Anna simultaneously.
While Angus and Jayna get a headache from the four Anna, King Leon and Duchess Amberblaze enjoy their time in the secret chamber.
"Are you sure it is fine to let that brat handle it?" asked Extalia.
"Don't worry, Lia. It's just a children's fight. As long as no one dies, they can do anything they want, even plotting against each other. Besides, this will be a good opportunity for them to learn about politics." replied King Leon while lying beside his lover.
With his intellect and spies, King Leon already realizes Eric, Dietrich, and even the recent Angus movement. However, he didn't care about it or decide to make a move. In front of his eyes, they are just like kids having a fight.
"Well, if you said so. I hope your kids didn't do anything stupid and cross Angus' bottom line. That brat… He is more dangerous than we thought before." replied Extalia.
"Hmm??" asked King Leon.
"Leon, no one could survive against hundreds of strong monster hordes with only twenty or so high-grade knights. Furthermore, the casualties are also minimal. Even I couldn't do it with my top speed." said Extalia.
"I know. You already told me that. But what can we do? It's not like we could just throw him away because he is too strong, right?" replied King Leon while hugging Extalia.
"Still, I feel he always attracts trouble. At first glance, It looks like the fault of a little monster. But, all the big trouble always connected to him somehow," replied Extalia anxiously.
"Lia. I will not hide it from you. Our kingdom is no longer under Fate's hand." said King Leon.
"Huh?!" replied Extalia in surprise.
"To be exact. No one could predict our kingdom. Be it me, Jade, or the others." said King Leon.
"Leon, what are you talking about?" asked Extalia in worry.
"Around twenty or more years ago, it was predicted that our kingdom would fall. No matter what I did, the Fate reading was still the same. You know Fate is absolute. When we want something, it will happen no matter what we do." explained King Leon.
"This is also why I am working hard to improve our military strength and our government system. Even if our kingdom was destroyed, some of us could survive and not be impacted too much."
"Since then, I rarely read Fate as the result is too frustrating. However, the Fate of our kingdom somehow changed. I don't know when it was completely changed. I think it is when Angus and the others return from that dimension." explained King Leon.
"But, rather than get the exact reading like usual. All I read was a blank page. It is like someone completely blocked Fate. Still, this gives me hope. It gives me hope that our kingdom could still survive this calamity." said King Leon solemnly.
"Leon…" muttered Extalia as she embraced her lover.
Hearing this, she realizes how much of a burden Leon has. Unlike her, King Leon is a full-fledged seventh grade. He knows how important and absolute Fate is. Knowing the verdict about his beloved kingdom will fall is truly disheartening.
Moreover, she knows Leon only does this since she loves Heart kingdom too much and will die for it when it is necessary. In other words, Leon struggles to prevent Extalia from her inevitable Fate.
"Not long ago, I visited the powerful Fate reading inside the Udrary territory. This time I managed to see something." said King Leon.
"What is it?" asked Extalia.
"Honestly, I am not sure. I see a throne made of bone and blood." said King Leon.
"Throne made of bone and blood?!" replied Extalia.
"Yeah. According to the Fate Reader, something or someone blocks Fate. I don't know who it is or what it wants. But I feel this is an opportunity. This is a chance for us to survive." said King Leon.
"But, what has anything to do with that brat? Based on your information, shouldn't we just eliminate any possible threat?" asked Extalia in confusion.
"That's what you did wrong, Lia. Fate may seem like a prediction. But, when it couldn't be read, anything could happen. It could be a sudden war, a deadly plague outbreak, or a calamity. The worst thing about unpredictable Fate is the unknown."
"Rather than not knowing anything about any potential threat, I prefer to keep the potential nearby. Who knows this threat may solve each other. Those brats may bring harm or destroy our kingdom but have the potential to save it." explained King Leon.
"Since every move is full of uncertainty and gambling, it is better to have as many cards as possible, even if they are wild cards." added King Leon.
"I hope what you said is true." said Extalia.
"Don't worry. Besides, did you truly want to kick that brat out?" asked King Leon.
"No. Of course, not. Although he is a troublemaker, you are already too attached to him. Besides, Jayna will be sad and hate me if I kick him out. That girl is already experiencing too much hardship." said Extalia in a melancholy tone.
"I know," said King Leon before kissing Extalia.
After a long and deep passionate kiss, "Speaking about brats, I hear you suddenly picked up small twin girls during your stay at Udrary. Did they happen to be your kids?" asked Extalia with a cold tone.
"Them?! No, of course not." retorted King Leon.
"Then, who are they?!" asked Extalia.
"*Sigh* They are just bored mischievous spirits or something similar." replied King Leon without explaining too much.
"Fine. So, where are they? How come I didn't feel them on my way?" asked Extalia.
"Who knows? They are probably pranking and doing something mischievous." King Leon grumbled.
"Pranking and mischievous?!" replied Extalia.
Suddenly, the couple looked at each other in surprise and cursed loudly.
"Fuck!! Anna!!" shouted King Leon and Extalia at the same time.
The King and Duchess immediately dressed and left the secret chamber in a flash. A moment later, they arrive at Jayna's palace. They find the whole palace is in a mess. One Anna is laughing loudly in a high place like a villain.
The other Anna is pestering Jayna for food. Another Anna is playing cat and mouse with Angus. Another one is pranking Angus and preventing him from catching Anna.
