"So you're saying that old lady is one of the Deserted Goddesses?" Sophie asked.

"Yep, after the incident, Nicola, an unknown Goddess look after them. Now, those Deserted Goddesses take charge of protecting the Pearl of Nicola" Ria answered before biting her breakfast.

"Nicola" Sophie remembers the name, it was once mentioned by the old lady that she forgets about.

"What's with that Nicola again?"

"I don't know, looks like someone tore the next page." Why would someone tear a page in a book? Sophie wonders if it is intentional or not. If it is, then who was it and why?

Sophie just pretend that she didn't have any idea about Nicola, well she really doesn't have, just the name.

Now that they know that the old lady, Myrtle Cadence, was a goddess, she will no longer have a hard time collecting information about her and her magic.

"So, are you ready?" Ria asked as Sophie preparing to cast a spell which she had practiced several times.

This is it, this is the first time she'll be doing this. She took a deep breath and clear her mind. "Wait!"

"What?" Sophie stopped focusing on the sudden approach.

"Why are you doing that again?" Ria asked.

"Because old lady trust me." she replied with a smile. Ria smiled back at her and she tried to focus again. She want to know the truth.

"רוחות קסומות מאדמות, מים ואוויר. זימנתי אותך. תן לי את הכוח שאני רוצה!" Sophie cast the spell three times, slowly, a strong wind surrounded her. The Deserted Goddesses are also lucky, using the magic they have, they can ask for anything as long as it comes from the heart. Maybe because they are really trustworthy that they are blessed with such power.

Hmm trustworthy, like what the Mica said, she trust Sophie. But the big question is also how did they become Deserted Goddesses. "Sophie!" even before the wind blew me away, I reached Ria and the wind lifted us up at the same time.

The wind, or should i say a mini tornado, looks like making a tremendous destruction all over the place. But we could not see it because of the strength of the wind and its light. After a minute, it weakened and they gradually lowered, if earlier they were in the library, instead of wooden floors, their feet hit a grass.

The environment is not yet clear, but they have already heard conversation.

"Aud, that's my name."

Aud ... Aud, Aud, Aud. "hmm, Aud, sounds familiar, where did I hear that again?" Sophie asked herself. "Aud, Aud, Aud ..."

"Wow haha, ​​Aud, something like a king, hmmm King Aud."

Sophie's face lit up as she remembered the name of the former king. Now it is clear to her that the two she sees now are the former king and the woman who is said to be a spy. "Right, why didn't I think of that?" She said.

"Aud !!" That was the shout of another woman approaching them. At the same time, the two stood up full of astonishment eyes. "Ybiressa, what's the problem?" The woman named Ybiressa first looked at Valerie's behavior, Sophie was staring at Ybiressa and she noticed that there was anger in the woman's eyes while looking at Valerie. While Ria just looked seriously at the three.

"I heard that the whole palace already knew that someone from the other side had entered," but it seemed to show concern when looking at the king.

"There seems to be something wrong with the woman" Sophie whispered to Ria.

"A-agreed" Ria whispered back.

"How did they find out about Valerie?" The king looked at Valerie who was full of concern. Real concern not as Ybiressa shows.

"I do not know, I was surprised I heard Zhao talking to the soldiers and he mentioned her," Ybiressa pointed to Valerie.

"We have to hide," Aud immediately pulled Valerie and Ybiressa followed them.

Sophie and Ria also follow them. They reached the end of the Redacre, which was far from the palace. They saw a small abandoned house and thought they would just hide there. They also used magic to confuse the people who would try to locate that place.

The wind blew hard again, when it disappeared, the place was night, they saw the king and Valerie sleeping soundly. Sophie's eyes searched for Ybiressa. She saw it standing, not far from the two. She went out so Sophie followed her.

"I can't take this long," Ybiressa said in emptiness. "I'm sorry Valerie, but this is the end for you." Ybiressa left immediately and Sophie was left alone.

"I knew it, she was just forced to help the king .. but why?"

"We will see," Ria rested her arm in Sophie's shoulder and smiled.

The wind carried them to the palace. "Wow, the old palace," Ria whispered as she observes the place. Sophie saw Ybiressa running towards her place, when she looked at her back, she saw Aud. Wait, this can't be Aud, they're just look alike, Sophie was sure it's not Aud.

"Zhao! I already know where the girl is, I will point out where they are!" Ybiressa promised desperately.

"Girl, you're crazy," Sophie whispered calmly just enough for Ria to hear.

"Crazy In love," Ria said that she could not understand what it meant.

"And how did you find out?" Zhao asked as Sophie thinks she is the King's twin, she remembers that Ybiressa mentioned her name as knowing about Valerie's entry into their world.

"It doesn't matter anymore Zhao the important thing is to catch that girl" They looked at Zhao who doesn't look satisfied.

"I saw her and I saw that she was using her magic, so I found out that she wasn't our kind." Ybiressa's desperation can still be heard as she speaks.

"Okay, I will tell the soldiers," Zhao closed the book he was reading and left, they followed it and saw talking to the soldier. Ybiressa told them the location of the two.

When the soldiers left, Zhao confronted Ybiressa again. "What makes you know such things?" Zhao whispered Sophie came closer so she could hear what they were talking about. "What do you mean?" Ybiressa bowed as if she was hiding something.

"How did you know someone from the other side had entered? Hm?" Sophie was stunned to have the idea that it was Ybiressa who told Zhao, and it was not Zhao who knew on purpose. "I told you, I saw how she use her white magic."

"How can you see that Ybiressa, isn't all your attention was on the king ?!" Ybiressa couldn't answer and Sophie was also surprised by Zhao's behavior. "I know how much you like the king," Sophie covered her mouth.
