"If you cannot answer the reason why, then at the very least can you answer this? Why meet us? Why not have your messengers, the Fates, do it as they have always done in the past? Or maybe, have our dear Cherubim meet with them to relay such messages to us?"

Fauna asked as she leaned on the panda beside her. The soft fur made her sigh in content as she awaited Modor's answer.

On the other side, Aves, agreeing with Fauna, uncrossed his arms as he peered at Modor with mild curiosity.

"Indeed. Aren't your little Fates well aware of their responsibilities in guiding Fate? So, of course, there is no need for you to step in unless there are drastic situations… like a demonic influence, perhaps?"

Aves tried to take a shot in the dark, trying to figure out what the Supreme G.o.d had planned. He knew time and time again not to pry into it but curiosity just couldn't help but get to him.

After all, as a King, he was far used to being knowledgeable at nearly everything about his domain, except for their fates. And so, it becomes frustrating for them when Fate is in the picture because they can't seem to grasp their heads around it most of the time.

Modor blinked and in that blink, he began to see the millions of possibilities that would occur through every answer he gave. Then, quickly formulating the perfect response to arrive in his desired outcome, Modor spoke with a smile. But despite his smile, his voice held a tinge of coldness.

"This… one's Fate is something we, Kings, personally need to address. No angel of whatever caste or cla.s.s is allowed to interfere aside from those of whom the Supreme G.o.d has tasked for deliberately. And let me remind you lest it had slipped your mind that we, Kings, are not allowed to interfere too much with another King's domain. And questioning Fate can be seen as a sort of interference of my duty and domain which will not be taken lightly."

Fauna furrowed her brows at the warning but she didn't have the capacity in her to feel anger. Instead, she was only able to feel slight irritation from his words.

"Yes, of course. We, Kings, have long been prohibited to interfere in each other's domain unless permission was granted. But if it is in a case of a possibility of demonic influence that would harm our domain's safety, permissions would no longer be needed, wouldn't it?"

Although he was getting tired of their probing, Modor hid his irritation well as he smiled brightly at Fauna.

"My, my, ever the curious King, Fauna. Keep it up and you might beat Sal one day in being the King with the most questions."

Fauna's eyebrow twitched as she refused to get swept away by Modor's flow.

"Having all Kings personally taking charge of this one's Fate, surely there is something at hand, here? That instance has never happened for as long as I've reigned, save for one. Would it be the start of yet another war?"

Hearing her words, Modor smile instantly dropped and his pale blue eyes turned cold and icy.

"As I've said King Amara, questioning Fate is breaching my domain. Do take heed of my words. Everything will reveal itself because such is the will of the fates. Have patience... that is something that was plentifully given to us when we were created, no? Learn to use it."

Fauna gritted her teeth but she knew that once Modor became like this, there was no way she could get an answer out of him.

Well, either way, there was never an instance where they could ever get an answer out of him anyway.

"I understand. If it is what I think it is, then I must prepare for war, then."

Aves sighed as he looked at the exchange between the two.

"Fauna, let's not jump into conclusions as of yet. As Modor has said, Fate will reveal itself soon enough. It is our duty as Kings to wait for the wheels of Fate to turn, not to turn it ourselves. Preparing for war would only create panic among the Reapers and unnecessary worry among the Angels."

Hearing the words of Aves, Modor broke his icy stare and morphed it into a mirthful one.

"Yes, yes. Why don't you listen to Aves here? Let me do my duty while you do yours, hmm? Go tend to the habitats of your domains instead of shooting questions here and there, Fauna. That way we both could maintain the balance of the worlds."

Fauna felt her irritation immediately being washed away as she stared at the animals that surrounded her.

"Of course. Apologies on that matter."

Aves sighed as he looked at Fauna with worry.

"Our emotions are not as easy to hide and dampen as King Anima so better keep yourself in check, Fauna. Although far away from any source, the corruption of sin is not impossible on us."

Fauna bit her lip as she remembered. She was one of the most expressive Kings, after all.

Her King brother, Faunus, would always tell her that rash emotions could lead to sin. And sin would lead to their deaths, that was why the one seated as King Anima would differ by every few millennia. After all, the King who governs the souls would be the ones exposed the most to the toxicity of sin.

Seeing that Fauna was starting to behave herself, he couldn't help but sneak a rough series of pats on her head to show that he didn't mean any bad blood between them before running away.

She really does remind him of a little bratty sister, just like in one of the families he encountered in the human world.

Small, impulsive, and flat-chested.

What do they call them in j.a.pan again?

Chibis?

While laughing to himself, he quickly exited the gates of heaven and went back to his alter ego in the country of Anemoly.

And now that he had returned, he peered at the bowl of water in front of him as he sighed in dismay.

Now, what they all had to do was to wait...

Wait for Raghnall…

Wait for Alana…

And wait for Inna to come back...

Then, watch everything fall into place.
