Chapter 218: No one can escape their Celestial Destiny
"So, you don't know anything after you were summoned?" Eli questioned, his fingers gently rubbing Anna's chin.
The area filled with the soothing purr of Kitty Anna as she leaned into the attention, her eyes half-closed in contentment.
"Y-Yezzz~Nya" Anna purred, relishing the soothing scratch on her itchy areas.
"Hmmm?" Eli pondered, "Even though I called you just before now?"
"Oh? Master called me?" Anna frowned, genuinely perplexed, as she was certain she hadn't received Eli's summons.
"...." Eli held back an immediate response.
"I think, You are from this world, Kitty" Eli stated seriously.
"Hmm, I see...." Kitty Anna squinted her slitted eyes before nodding.
"Hmm? You didn't seem too surprised" Eli noted, expecting a more astonished reaction.
"Well, I would be if I didn't see... her" Kitty Anna said, her gaze fixated on the golden-haired woman.
"She?" Eli squinted, intrigued by the unexpected twist in the conversation.
"Yes~Nya," Kitty replied, gracefully moving from Eli's lap to the table. She stood before Lilith, stating, "Her aura is almost similar to one of my father's friends".
Lilith maintained her composure, realizing Eli was attempting to discern her emotions through visible reactions.
Eli scrutinized Lilith, then glanced at Adriana, who seemed puzzled. However, when his eyes fell on Scylla, whose eyes widened, Eli clicked his tongue in annoyance, realizing that Scylla and Lilith were hiding something.
"So, you are saying she might be your father's friend?" Eli inquired with curiosity, hoping to unravel more.
Kitty's eyes flickered from green to blue as she responded with a puzzled expression, "H-Huh? My father?... I don't have a father?... Do I? Maybe?..." A hint of confusion painted her feline features.
Eli's lips twitched, 'FUCK!'.
Lilith smiled inwardly, 'Well, I let you off the hook... for now'. Leaning toward Eli with an eager expression, she lifted her chin as if asking for something, her eyes betraying a blend of anticipation and apprehension.
'Tap, Tap'
Everyone's eyes twitched.
Eli chuckled before gently rubbing Lilith's chin, 'I will search it by myself' Eli decided to investigate a matter personally instead of relying on others.
"M-Master" Kitty hesitated before speaking, a mix of sadness and caution in her gaze.
"P-Prisa-"
"I have another question" Eli cut off her words, his attention shifting to another.
"Yes, Master" Kitty turned gloomy.
"Just what happened before you scarific--"
"~Ring~Ring~"
"..." Eli took his phone and answered, "Yes"
"....Hmm...I see...Hmmm...Okay" Eli responded, his eyes studying each person in the room, leaving an air of anticipation.
"Now?" Eli raised his eyebrows, prompting frowns from the others.
"....Hmmm, Okay, I will be there, Teach" Eli said as he ended the call, leaving the room in a state of anticipation and curiosity.
"I will be leaving now" Eli announced, standing up. However, a hand held him back.
"Hmm?" Eli looked at Lilith, questioning, "What?"
But instead of Lilith, Scylla asked, "Where are you going, Master?" Her eyes reflected both curiosity and a hint of worry.
"...." Observing their curious and doubtful expressions, Eli couldn't resist adding fuel to the fire.
"A date with my teach" Eli said with a teasing smile, deliberately ignoring the murderous eyes.
"....."
Leaving them in inner turmoil, Eli headed to his room and began changing into something suitable for a date, the atmosphere thick with unspoken questions and intrigue.
'Anastasia?' Eli called inwardly.
'....'
'Anastasia? I am your Master, So respond to me' Eli ordered.
'....'
With no response, Eli concluded that Kitty Anna and Anastasia were entirely different entities.
If Eli had commanded Kitty, she would have undoubtedly responded under the Forced Master-Servant Pact, so he thought that might be possible however there was another possibility that crossed his mind: Anastasia was powerful enough to break the Pact.
"What is it, Prisania?" Eli asked when he noticed movement outside his room.
'Tuck'
"Hahah-hah..." With an awkward laugh, Prisania entered the room.
'Gulp'
She plunged her teeth into his neck.
"AAAAHHHHH" Prisania moaned, her lower lips releasing a scent that tantalized Eli's senses. Her eyes rolled back as she felt she was in heaven.
The hole in her stomach started to heal.
'Gulp, Gulp' Prisania drank his blood as if it were heavenly wine that prepared for 1000s of years. She didn't want to be separated; she didn't want to move away from her master for even a moment.....She yearned to become one with him.
'Drip, Drip'
Blood flowed from his shoulder.
Her hands unconsciously rubbed his manly chest; however,
'Thud'
With a single chop, she lost consciousness.
"...." Eli stared at the fallen beauty, then approached her and
'sniffff'
Inhaled her scent as if to remember her. After checking on her natural healing, Eli placed her on the bed, not before cuffing her hands.
"~hmmm~" Prisania moaned when she felt a soft touch on her hands and legs.
Eli stood and gazed at Prisania. 'Let's see what happens hereafter...'
'Thud'
Eli left the room.
Descending the stairs,
Everyone saw Eli, dressed in a stylish black tuxedo carefully picked out by Adriana with stylish sunglasses and new black shoes.
"...."
"...."
"...."
"...."
"...."
'He is really handsome' Everyone was mesmerized by his handsomeness.
"Okay, see you later" Eli smiled, waving his hands at them.
Everyone's eyes twitched....Lilith was about to shout at him when,
"Adriana, Here, take this and Zera, listen to your mother" Eli handed over a peculiar pendrive and some documents.
"..."
"Mia, Call Big Sister to come"
"...O-Okay?"
"Scylla, Take care of Adriana if she runs out of patience"
"...."
"Kitty, Take care of Prisania, and if anything happens, let Adriana know about it"
"Y-Yes, Master"
"....and Lilith..."
"...."
"It's true; Your husband is weak and unworthy to know everything"
"..N-N--"
"But..." His eyes darted between everyone, "I will make sure to protect everyone"
With those words, Eli left the house.
Leaving almost everyone puzzled.
Eli wasn't acting impulsively. During his time in another realm, he concealed something from everyone. And that was,
Just as the void cracked and faded away, that mysterious voice faded with those words,
[Remember Mortal, No one can escape their.... celestial destiny even if....divine beings.... stand....them.....Don... for.g...Yo...Wiv...d...]
"No one can escape their Celestial Destiny...ah?" Eli's face tightened as he recollected images from his past.
Bitting his trembling lips he felt the sense of dread that had occurred from the very morning....he had the face of fear as well as.....anticipation?
