Bane Family!

The whole room was astounded in silence, everyone contemplating Lizzie's words, buried in their desires to at least get a good idea of the entire situation.

Phate, for one, wondered when he would stop being so unlucky; just as he started enjoying the fruits of his life, he was introduced to a massive problem with high responsibilities placed on his shoulders, weighing him down!

Secrets -he doubted even Sovereign Immortals knew of- were now opened up to him. Knowing those secrets was a threat that had placed a sharp death scythe on his neck...

He was now being targeted by someone he did not do anything wrong to! Just like how everyone used to mistreat him and do as they saw fit because he was weak!

The same thing was happening now; everyone was taking him for a pushover and expected him to stay put in one place as he waited for their judgment!

He was tired of it; he refused to do that; this new life of his, he had a lot to lose...his loved ones. He wasn't going to sit idly to see them get killed between things they had nothing to do with!

He should act too, "You think I will wait and let you prepare? No, this time, I am acting first. Unlike you, I know of the past or the probable future. I know all the pawns you used against me back then.

I'm going to let you watch me take them one by one without you being able to do anything, and you can never be faster than me, Fate!

I was always one step ahead of you; let's see what you've got!" he declared inwardly.

Different figures appeared in his mind; every trick Fate used against him back then was at his fingertips!

Indeed, Fate didn't know that Phate Bane knew of her targeting him, nor did she know of him having a notion, no, not just an idea; he knew of her every move, what would come first and then next, he just had too fast!

"Why does your mother target Phate, and who's this mother of yours?" Thalia asked.

"Mother...she's the one above everything, the beginning and end...or so she told us. She's the only omniscient being in existence, and that's for sure!" Lizzie said. Thalia looked at Phate, who nodded in agreement.

It felt like he had been brought back to the past now, with future events at the back of his mind.

"Why does she hate or want to eliminate you and Phate?"

"I am not so sure, but I know a thing or two about why she wants to wipe out the existence of Phate or the whole Bane family from the face of the Seven Boundless Realms! Fear of the unknown!" Lizzie had a huge smile on her face; she did not have to wait for long...

"What do you mean?" Shen asked. Phate shook his head; he knew Lizzie, her playful behavior always finding enjoyment even in the face of death.

"Hehehe...this big sister is about to tell you a big secret, come closer..." With her back bent, her ass slightly lifted off the bed, Lizzie said in a small voice, close to a whisper.

As though puppets were being pulled by strings by the puppeteer, the three brought their faces closer to Lizzie.

"Haha, hahaha..." Lizzie laughed out loud, pulling her head back sitting upright.

"Tsk!" they couldn't believe Lizzie had played them; her playful games helped lighten the mood.

One of the things Phate appreciated about Lizzie was her ability to pull everyone together and make them one; she had helped him so much to put all his women in one camp!

"Since this big sister is happy, she will tell you!" she beat her chest triumphantly.

"the fear of the unknown has been the greatest enemy of everyone in reality, but do you guys know what? My Mother had dwarfed this by becoming Omniscincent, All-knowing!

"Nothing could catch her by surprise, not a chance! That was until we - me, Livia, and Lilith - found her secret; it was a particular secluded family no one knew of!

"They were not involved in anything and just lived like ordinary people on their island.

The Bane family!

"If there's one person who fears the unknown that anyone, it's a being who's believed to be all-knowing, my mother!"

They listened intently; the more she said, the more they became curious; not even Phate knew of this so-called secret, maybe because he...anyway, Lizzie, seeing them all hooked in her story, moved and went to where Phate sat.

"That place is hard; I need to sit on something soft to continue...hehe." she sat on his lap and leaned her head on his broad chest, then her legs onto Qiang Ming.

They just smiled; she did not know that they deliberately let her do as she wished, as she had what they wanted.

"Ahem..." with a victory smile, she coughed for their attention but didn't need to do that since they were all concentrated on her, only her alone!

"For a long time, Mother had her eyes on this family, even before the demons invaded... Oh, did I say that she had hidden the existence of other races living with us in the Seven Boundless realms?" they shook their heads.

"Oh my bad, anyway, that's a story for another day, so we wondered why Mother kept her eyes on that island for so long; we later found out she could not see past the barrier protecting the island, but I could, and only me!

"She couldn't read their existence, fate, destiny, nothing at all.

"After we found out the existence of other races and me being able to see past the barrier, Mother got wind of our discovery, and guess what happened next...

The demons suddenly attacked and, by a 'miracle' was able to destroy the barrier around the island, and she could finally see what was beyond, what was inside the castle of the Bane Family; it terrified her so much, and she had to destroy them, by all means, and after we won the war against the Demons, I suddenly became the bane of existence and had to be eliminated!" as she thought, she could see a doubtful look on everyone. 

They could pick up the smell of something fishy!
