46 Diary 46: The Foreteller Absence

In an Unknown Palace…

"Is this true? Does everyone gain the same vision?" the Gods and Goddesses gather in a meeting hall. The tall pillars around them strive high into the endless sky, the Goddess Aphrodite sees Her peers in concern, more or less because what everyone saw are the same.

They saw Min So to be the center of mankind's damnation, the ruins of Sanctus Luminera were caused by none other than the Goddess warrior. Kim Min Soo brings ruins to the mortal realm by bringing an army of feral beasts from the depths of Lucis Infernum, his husky bronze orbs loom over the lives of mortals.

The sickening smell of deaths permeated the mortal realm in chaos, Kim Min Soo becomes the ruler of chaos before they even know it. The prophecy changed, none of this ever happened in the past. All eyes are on Aphrodite, whose responsible for picking her Warrior; glare and disdain are aiming at Her Truly Aphrodite.

"As usual, you only pick men that interest you Aphrodite" a demanding voice speaks in-depth. "You never thought that the warrior you pick will fight back against your string of seduction".

"That's not true! Kim Min Soo is a nice young lad!" Aphrodite protests. "There's no way that prophecy is real!".

Aphrodite tries her best in defending Min Soo, the warrior she chose from Seoul. She trusts that Min Soo will bring victory and peace for Sanctus Luminera, The Goddess knows that the power she entrusts falls into the right hand.

Next to Aphrodite is a God, clad in armor and a feisty smile; the man chuckles lightly when He sees Aphrodite's beliefs on Min Soo.

"Then tell me, why is it that we saw the mortal realm fell into chaos under your chosen warrior grasp?" the man growl at Aphrodite.

The Goddess clenches her fist, not even she knows what is going to happen to the mortal realm. After all, the warriors are like chess pieces that they have to guide so that they can function properly to restore peace on the land. However, the prophecy made the Gods furry; they're starting to doubt Her.

Aphrodite can feel the intense glares from the other, She can only hope that prophecy is only a nightmare that the foreseer shows Them.

"Prophecy?" David is quite surprised that Min Soo asks that important question right after Min Soo enrolls in the Sports Tournament. 

"Yeah, the Goddess who summoned me said something about the prophecy of me being the chosen warrior for Sanctus Luminera, how do you know about the prophecy?".

David decides to tell him that Sanctus Luminera had a foreseer that spreads His foretelling of the future to selected views.

The explorer was one of the Visioner who received the Foreseer foretelling that Min Soo will arrive in his world sooner or later, the man knows how the world is in great peril thanks to the Great War between the mortal realm and the Underworld.

The explorer claims that he's quite surprised to see the Idol is blessed with a unique innate ability by the Goddess. Especially charm ability will tremendously help him in the Sports Tournament if he can use it properly. After enrolling, the two wait for Min Soo's name to be called.

The administrator of the event will announce Min Soo's batch and to whom he will be matched. After waiting for fifteen minutes, the administrator of the event registers his name on the last batch, which is batch four. He's going to be matched with a person named Kylie, which seems to be a girl's name from the looks of it.

Right next to Min Soo's batch is Crow's name, he's going to fight another participant but Min Soo can't help but anxious whether Crow will fight him if he passes to the next stage. David reassures Min Soo that he's not interested in participating in the Sports Tournament, thus he can trains Min Soo under his wings.

Still, the Sports Tournament will start in two days; Min Soo doesn't prepare lots of clothes for that long. He thought that they will go straight home after doing the quest, but turns out that even the gentlemen had some business to do in the Arkhansas City. David apologizes for not telling Min Soo beforehand.

"Don't worry, we can always buy new clothes for that" David smiles it off. "A week means more time to train, also sorry for not telling you that we have urgent business to do in here".

"I don't mind" Min Soo shrugs it off. "I wish you tell me sooner though".

David apologies again, and thus the two sets off to the nearby boutique to find more clothes. The Sports Tournament will start in two days, Min Soo can't help but feel unprepared since it was a last-minute decision. He's not particularly adverse in spellcasting yet, his charm ability still goes uncontrollable.

If anything goes awry in the arena, he can't help but remember the time the merchant's handsy hands are on his bare body. His hand goes to his pink hair, brushing the surface of his hair softly as he gently pulls his hair roots in frustration of the imperfect control of his charm ability. 

Min Soo's perfectionist habits kick in whenever he feels he's useless, his hand starts going to his hair.

"Min Soo, let's check that place" David pulls his hand from his hair, pulling Min Soo toward him as he points his index finger toward a certain place. 

There's a signboard saying The Moona Clothing Brand, with a logo of a beautiful full moon on the center of the signboard. The moment Min Soo sets his foot in the boutique, he sees a familiar face in the store. It's none other than Crow and Luna, the two are chatting in a friendly term.

"Oh Crow, you're here" David doesn't sound too surprised. "Buying clothes for the Sports Tournament?".

"You got that right" Crow replies with a heavy sigh. "I forgot that the tournament is here".

The interior of the boutique is comfy, it has this magical vibe in the store. Luna stares at Min Soo, her large eyes eyeing on Min Soo's figure as if she wants to say something but stop herself from saying anything."Luna, you're here on an errand?" David asks his younger sister, Luna.

Min Soo remembers vividly that David told him that Luna is a fashion designer, then perhaps this brand must be owned by Luna.

"It's been a while, brother! Also, Min Soo" Luna waves her hand toward the two.
