Chapter 1368: Chapter 31: True and False Prophecy (Part 4)
"...It’s not that I think I am the key, I’ve never thought I’m special or that it’s me who must save the world, but rather that I have no choice but to act. Even if the Doomsday Prophecy I saw is fake, the prophecy itself truly exists. It affects the people I care about, and they cannot escape it. How could I just leave?"
"Even so, you might lose control like you did today, always walking on the edge of collapse?"
Seeing Renie’s worried face, Fisher finally nodded and said,
"Even so."
"...Is it because of Rafael and Moli, right?"
This sentence was actually more of a statement than a question. Strong as Renie was, she already knew the relationship between Fisher and those Ladies; she could understand Fisher’s thoughts without guessing.
But to Fisher’s surprise, this sentence didn’t seem to carry much jealousy, instead, there was a hint of melancholy.
"Also because of you, Renie. The final part of the Doomsday Prophecy mentions the ’Undead Witch,’ that’s why I went to Schwali to find you. Back then, I was only curious about the Doomsday Prophecy, unaware of its severity..."
Renie remained silent, wanting to say something more, but Fisher spoke again,
"Alright, Renie, we just met, are you sure you want to turn this reunion into a meaningless debate... Well, although last time in the Northern Realm was quite sudden too, given you come from the Spirit Realm, you could appear anywhere. Regarding reading the Completion Manual, I will be careful and reconsider."
Renie let out a long sigh, but in the end, she seemed disinclined to continue the argument with Fisher.
They have been together for so long; despite Renie hiding her true identity from Fisher for a long time, she could comfortably show her true character to him because of this.
Aside from identity, they genuinely understood each other well and could grasp the meaning behind each other’s words rather than bickering over misunderstandings.
Renie pouted and then used her small fist to lightly punch Fisher’s chest, saying,
"Ha, after all, our dear Fisher is so capable, even the Angels from the Holy Land would unconditionally help you and still think fondly of you from eternity ago to eternity henceforth. In contrast, here’s me—this Witch who waited only four and a half years for you—excuse me indeed, oh esteemed Fisher of the Holy Land..."
These sarcastic words clearly showed her lingering resentment about Fisher mentioning Helair first.
"Renie..."
"Hmph, stop trying to argue, next time when we are together, you’d better not mention any female’s name—I am jealous."
"Wait, didn’t you say before..."
"That was Renie from four and a half years ago, I’ve changed my mind—no mentioning, no mentioning, no mentioning..."
"Alright."
Fisher shook his head with a wry smile, while Emhardt stood by and watched Renie, seemingly ready "to firmly implement Lady Renie’s handling of new solitude issues." He had long defected to Lady Renie’s side, becoming part of the "Renie Faction Anti-Bayemon Party."
With Fisher’s confirmation, Renie, who was acting petulantly, finally stood up with a hum. Her body began to virtualize bit by bit, as it had in the past,
"I’ll find you some clothes to wear first; you look too indecent right now. Wait here for a moment..."
As Renie departed, she left Fisher with a backward glance, along with words she continued after pausing for a moment,
"Also... about the topic we just discussed, I’m serious. Think about it... Leave it to me and those Divines..."
"We already have a solution to the Doomsday Prophecy."
As soon as she finished speaking, she vanished from her spot, heading towards the Dragon Court.
