"Sigh~" Father stood in the middle of the burning warehouse, trembling as he looked at the charred body in front of him. No matter what he became, he would never forget the original form of the body-his wife.

"What you and I least wanted to see has finally happened!" Haisa quietly walked in.

"Do you feel it?"

"The Fire of the Demon! Besides you, who else could it be?"

"My son!" Father said tremblingly.

"Matricide, it is unforgivable for both gods and humans. Maybe it wasn't him!"

"Regardless, I came too late. If, if I arrived ten minutes earlier, no, five minutes earlier, how would things be!"

"'The Dawn of Horus' was originally a system to benefit the masses, but in the hands of mediocre people, it is just decoration. What a pity~~~ It doesn't belong to your jurisdiction." Haisa touched the pale blue ring on his right hand with regret. It seems that he was extremely dissatisfied with the people of the guarding system as well.

"Haisa~~~"

"I know, you owe me a favor again. I always felt that your wife would be in great danger, but I didn't expect it to come so soon. In The Human Realm, there is a saying, 'Man proposes but God disposes,' even gods cannot surpass fate, right? Hehe~~"

Haisa helplessly took off the ring and put it on his mother's hand.

"This is the 'Reincarnation Ring,' the only relic left by my mother. Nia once refused it, and refused me at the same time. Unexpectedly, she will wear it in a situation like this today. It's~~~breathtaking~~~~"

Haisa took a deep breath, suppressing the emotions in his heart. His eyes slightly turned red. Obviously, in his father's era, the three of them had some kind of relationship!

"It's my fault for not teaching my son properly!" Father clenched his fists tightly, the Fire of the Demon surging in his fists.

"Don't get angry, and don't use any magic. It will affect the process of reincarnation."

Haisa timely stopped his father's anger.

The ring slowly emitted a warm blue light, making him feel extremely relieved. It felt like a warm stream flowing through his whole body. This feeling was like soothing magical power——peaceful.

"Nia's soul has been fixed, but her body has been severely damaged and cannot be used anymore. We need to find a suitable body for her immediately. Do you want a mature type or a little girl type?"

"Why are you asking me this?"

"Reincarnation must have a complete body. Nia is your wife, so it's up to you, as her husband, to decide what kind of body she should have, right? You better make a decision quickly. If this ceremony drags on too long, it will drain all of my magic power, and Nia will only disappear into thin air. Hurry up and decide!"

"Alright! I'll choose, choose~~~hmm, a little girl."

"You're not a lolicon, are you?"

"Don't worry about that! Just hurry up with the reincarnation!" Father urged Haisa a little shyly.

Father and Haisa quickly left the scene, and the guards outside also followed. Father turned back slightly, looked into the distance, and then left naturally.

I walked out from the darkness holding Elena, looking at my father. Is this what having a father feels like? In my past life, I never had any relatives, not even parents.

"Why don't you explain it to your father?"

"You're awake! Whether or not to find him is not up to me, it's up to Black to decide."

"Black?"

"The other me, another soul. He is extremely scared and guilty of killing our mother, or maybe he is afraid of his own power. Power that suddenly skyrocketed from 1 to tens of millions. A normal person would have gone berserk and died, right? I was too impatient and ended up causing harm to Black." I furrowed my eyebrows, thinking that it would be even more difficult for Black to unleash his power and memories again after he sealed them away. It would take six years in The Human Realm for time to catch up with him, and now with the seal in place, when Black wakes up again, our connection will definitely be cut off again, and today's memories will be blurry. In order to release the seal on Black, it will rely on him to do it himself, to pull out the shadow. Sigh~~~ Why did things become so complicated! But it should be helpful for Black to stay away from our father.

"What on earth are you talking about! Are you talking about those people with twin souls? But I read in books that such people can never live more than a year." Elena struggled in my arms, indicating that she didn't want to be held by me.

"Don't trust everything you read in books. Haven't you heard that before? Just because it's not in the book doesn't mean it doesn't exist. You can have everything that you can't see if you just look around.""So what? I've rarely left home since I was born. Hey~~~ Let me go first~~" Elena felt very surprised. A six-year-old boy shouldn't have such strength to hold her so tightly. Besides, she didn't feel that I was using Magic.

"I won't let go. What can you do?" Looking at her face, I didn't feel like letting go. Could it be her?

"You~~"

"Sorry, I must have scared you just now! Even though I wasn't in control of my actions, looking at you with that expression, I feel really guilty."

"......" Elena felt my pure sincerity, because my gaze was much gentler than before. Elena was afraid that this kind of gaze might suddenly turn cold again.

"Do you see that star?" Suddenly, I looked up and gestured for her to look over there.

Elena looked up at the sky. Even on this night when dark clouds covered the sky, there was still a star twinkling in the distance.

"Have you heard of the Dragon Maiden in The Divine Realm?"

"Dragon Maiden? Who is she?"

"You haven't heard of her? Alright, let me tell you. Have you heard of the war between the Magic Dragons and the Holy Dragons?"

"Of course, without that battle, Magic wouldn't have appeared in The Human Realm."

"No, The Human Realm had Magic long ago, but that's not the focus of this story. Let's skip it for now." I looked at the star in the distance and said, "In the realms of gods, humans, and demons, dragons are powerful beings. Everyone fears dragons, but within the dragon clan, there are only three who appear in human form. Besides the Holy and Demonic Dragon, there is the Dragon Maiden. She is very arrogant and sees no one as worthy of her heart except one person."

"But you said no one is worthy, so who could it be?"

"You're so dumb. It's because he's not human! Do you think the Holy Dragon is a human?"

"Ah! Are you saying that the Dragon Maiden likes the Holy Dragon? That's a good match!"

"It seems good, but in reality, it's not like that. The Dragon Maiden decides to follow the Holy Dragon, wanting him to love her. And the Holy Dragon treats her very well, very gentle, and considerate. Originally, it was just to make the Holy Dragon like her, but slowly she realized that she had fallen in love with him uncontrollably. But the most unfortunate thing is that the Holy Dragon doesn't actually have romantic feelings for her. Perhaps you could say that the Holy Dragon just takes care of the Dragon Maiden like a little sister, just like his universal love for all living beings. His love is macroscopic, but he doesn't have a microscopic affection for her."

"How can the Holy Dragon be like this? Isn't it said that the Holy Dragon is righteous, kind, and just? Why would he hurt the Dragon Maiden so heartlessly?"

"Hehe, actually the Holy Dragon is not heartless. It's just that his emotions are too pure. Throughout thousands of years, he has never experienced romantic love. He doesn't not love the Dragon Maiden, he just doesn't know how to love her as a lover." I laughed, a laugh full of helplessness. The most tragic thing for the Holy Dragon is that he has never truly loved, not just caring, but deeply in love.

"If I had another chance, I would never let go of the Dragon Maiden's hand. I want her to stay by my side forever, until the day I disappear."

"You~~~ What's wrong?" Elena looked at me with tears twinkling in the corner of my eyes. She felt very strange. When I said this sentence, she felt an inexplicable sense of happiness in her heart. Even though it wasn't about her, she still felt like it was meant for her.

"After the Dragon Maiden sent the Holy Dragon off to the battlefield, she cried alone for a long time. Legend has it that the star in the sky is formed from her tears."

"What happened to the Dragon Maiden in the end?"

"I don't know. After both the Holy and Demonic Dragons disappeared, she also disappeared from the realms of gods, humans, and demons."

"Well, what kind of ending is this for your story? It's so abrupt. But it feels so melancholic."

"Melancholic? Then, would you like to be my Dragon Maiden?" My words fell, and my head lowered. Our lips touched, and Elena's brain went completely blank for a moment. Her mind was filled with emptiness.

"Bernice, Bernice, Bernice..." A strange voice kept resounding deep within Elena's soul, awakening certain memories.

"Who are you?"

"Regardless of whether you remember me or who you are now, I only know that you're important to me. No matter how much space and time separates us, I have to say to you: I really like you! Will you be my fiancée and sign an unchanging contract?"

"Um..." Elena's brain flickered with many fragmented images, but each image had that silver-haired man. These images left her confused, not knowing how to make sense of these inexplicable images. Even if she tried her best to organize them, they still didn't connect, as if something was missing."Will you promise me? Just one word, that's enough."

At this moment, Elena could no longer think clearly. She could only follow her subconscious: "I...a...gree..."

A strong yet gentle magic filled her body, as if a bridge had been formed between their souls. I could clearly sense their emotions.

A radiant light enveloped us, where every thought of each other was revealed.

"How rare, could I be the dragon lady..."
