Rachel carried a dazed expression as she was looking down at her hands, Migneas was carrying a gentle expression while sniggled against Heron who was feeding her. Nancey and Azdis where smiling while holding hands, they seemed to have finished some kind of love trial and are even more in love then before.

"There you are!" The sound of Ishtar's voice came as she slammed her hands on the table. Startling everyone. "Come I have someone I want you to met." She said violently pulling Rachel to her feet and dragging her away.

"Not another match-making session, Mother, you know I hate those." Rachel said solemnly with a dull expression.

"I Don't care, I'll will not have a daughter that doesn't allow love into her life."

"Ugh" Rachel mouthed. "For the last time that won't happen, now will you knock it of-" Rachel stopped talking for a moment. She was lead the Far back but isolated part of the garden where a blonde haired youth whose back was turned away from her. She felt a science of familiarity with this scene till a certain scent filled her nose.

Ca.s.sia.

Rachel frowned in annoyance and turned around to leave when her mother pulled her ruthlessly.

"Wh-" She was about to argue when she was suddenly hit on her back with something, What it was Rachel known instantly. She couldn't believe her mother was so serious that she would resort to using such a thing on her.

Ishtar is the G.o.ddess of love, so, she has right to evoke the concept of love to obtain her goals. Meaning so came make people fall in love with little to no effort with her power. But, Rachel's personality is resistant to true blind love, so even if she evokes the concept of love on her daughter multiple times it will only go so far.

Not because Rachel is resistant to love but when she feels it will borderline madness, she will outright reject so strongly to the point that she can be free of it. Such is the same with Azdis, in truth they met due to her mother evoking this concept on the both of them.

But she doesn't have to explain Azdis side to much, right, he is a G.o.d of death an can evoke the concept of death. Meaning he kill off his feelings and nearly anything when he wants to.

What Ishtar had done, was that in order to get Rachel to fall in love truly she would suppress the girl's true personality to due so. Such a thing, is not acceptable in Odore Garden and can be considered a serious crime in Odore Garden.

The manipulation of the Heart or Mind, can be deadly to G.o.d or G.o.ddess with a high chance of them losing their divine power.

Ishtar looked at her daughter's empty gaze without a trance of guilty she was excited that she can finally get this child of hers to fully accept the affection of another, to be blinded by them and only them to the point of madness. Even if she got in trouble, she felt it the risk was okay.

"Sweetheart, this is my Champion Reinhold." Ishtar smiled, as she gentle pulled a dazed Rachel ahead.

Elfin was freaking out, as even he was surpa.s.sed and locked away. He can only be a spectator at this point as Rachel seemed to be struggling on two battle fronts. One was a power she was invoked with another is her own power as a destroyer running ramped inside her.

Rachel can't her the voice of Elfin consistently calling her with a fearful and wobblily voice.

"What's wrong" Heron said frowning at Migneas who was looking an can't seem to stay calm. Her sense told her something was wrong, but she couldn't identify what it, but this feeling was growing.

"I don't know...." Migneas trailed off, for once she couldn't focus on her love for Heron. His arms always made her feel safe but this feeling growing in her is making her scared the more time goes on. Even through she was in her husband's arms

They had long returned back from their outing after her Mother, Ishtar took off took off with her sister.

"Forget it lets just go to sleep, I feeling rather worn so….." Heron kissed her forehead and brought her to bed where he laid beside her. Watching her slowly fall asleep, before his attention was drawn away from the events earlier.

In truth he never liked his mother-in-law, the women was a selfish person to the bone, although she had motherly love for her children but it was somewhat twisted and strange to him. She was happy that her daughter almost lose her divinity because of him.

In her opinion her love for him was…..well, he couldn't even answer that right because of guilty. But, the problem is what mother wants her child to fall into a destructive love. Sure, he used Migneas in the beginning and didn't even care about the consequences he made her do in order to prove her love for him. It pains him now, but he wonders if his sister-in-law is okay. She had always made a successful escape from her mothers' deviance. But, something about this time gave him a bad feeling because of the look in his mother-in-law's face.
