The Ruler Of Gilead - Chapter 49 New Memories

After the group entered the garden they found a pergola for them all to have a seat. Surrounded by luscious green vegetation and beautiful red and white flowers. Samara looked at the distant flowers as if she was looking at a memory. Looking back at the children it was clear she missed her Master and Aunt.

“I know you three want to know what Kata said, regarding your futures. But let me say up front that there are two futures currently taking place as we speak.”

“What do you mean two futures? How is that possible? Valencia looked to Lagina with curiosity and doubt.

“Oh yes, Valencia you haven’t re-lived any of your former lives with Hittan as yet. So some of what I will say will seem strange to you. Here, this is a moonstone bracelet it can help you answer a few riddles with Hittan’s assistance.”

After handing Valencia the bracelet she turned her attention back to the group.

“For clarity, Hittan has died 6 times since the establishment of this star system. But this is still his 5th life. It was during the time of his fourth life that the final stages of Lady Kata’s plans would be set in motion.

It was in that life when she split her Moon Crystal core and shared it with him. This act did a number of things, firstly it gave Hittan the ability to see the future and have some sway over it. But that requires a very high level of power, at least Godbeast level. Even now you share that inheritance with Kaija and Kaia.

The second thing that came from Lady Kata’s actions of splitting her Moon Crystal was that it led to the birth of Kaia and Kaija. Splitting her Moon Crystal ended up splitting her soul during her reincarnation, but how exactly this happened I am not sure. But it was never done with regret and of course, she is still with us now as you, Kaija.

The third thing it did was to increase Hittan’s reason to worry as he would be doomed to love you both. Hehe, sorry Hittan, Kata says you need to try harder and not to disappoint her.”

Looking to the newly engaged Kaija and Kaia Hittan smiled lovingly at them and nodded while stating, “I will.”

“Good. Back to the events that would affect our future from the moment of your death onward. Lady Kata knew with you having her eyes, Lagina’s heart and the bones of Valencia that you would have the highest chance of a Star God rebirth or Dragon Phoenix.

But having a high chance of something is still no guarantee that it would happen. So that required someone to intervene in certain matters. She said that you would first be born as an exceptionally strong Land Dragon incarnation and this was the last item needed for the Star God. Your Corundum Ruby Rage Blood. It would be because of this innate and exceptionally strong connection to rage that led you to kill a number of your current team members.”

“The would-be talent of the then Village yes, it seems I” As Hittan recalled his past actions he suddenly looked at Valencia!

“Well, that was in future one and thankfully you have the chance to fix some things and make it up to those you’ve wronged. Call it karma if you will, but do your best this time around. It goes without saying that Lady Kata witnessed the troubles you dealt with growing up alone, without anyone to support you. But she said all that would be necessary and that I was not to interfere with your life. With the exception of placing Kaija in the same location as you when you were at your lowest. As well as to not stop Kaia if her curiosity about you grew too strong after she observed the changes in Kaija”

Hittan looked to Kaia with a smile while she turned her head away swiftly as a red blush was prominently on her face.

“Also, you do not need to worry, they never married anyone else in that future I made sure of that. However, I was also told not to let you marry them either and to limit your contact with them…”

“But, couldn’t I have been made aware of these plans? I willingly accepted things in my fourth life.”

“That leads to my last point. Girls, I was asked by Lady Kata to encourage you to Kill him by feeding you a false prophecy. The prophecy would appear especially true since you were never given the Moon Goddess inheritance during that time. But of course, having it now means that the you of that future, now have the inheritance. And is learning what you know now as a memory. Which means you are all connected, in that future and this present time, Hittan’s new past.

To your question Hittan, Lady Kata thought it too much of a burden to give you 5 the knowledge of your past lives. While being asked to kill you in the manner that was required to mix the 3 elements in your body. She thought it too cruel a thing to know they would have to mutilate you in that manner.”

“I see. Thank you.”

“The fact that today, we are all here now talking, means you have died once already and it has played out the way it should have. So each new action will become memories for your future lives until the day of Hittan’s original death.”

“… Sister, suddenly I feel so lonely thinking of them waiting for so long.”

“Yes, Kaia I feel the same. 1000 years seems so long now.”

It was then that Hittan saw the gesture from Empress Samara to the moon bracelets. Understanding that he was able to fully communicate with the future girls via the dreamworld. Meant that they could continue to do so and their future selves could also contact them!

Walking slowly towards the girls he extended his arms and embraced them both in a hug. Whispering in their ears, “do you remember our first time we shared a dream?”

Blushing they buried their heads into his chest.

“I’ll take that as a yes. Haha, well in the dream world they feel what you feel and hear what you hear. So let’s create new dreams together and let’s not forget, that every action now will become their memories.”

Extending his arms even further Hittan held the hands of Lagina and Valencia.

“New memories for us all.”
