Linci's father--, "Linci, We sent Rofelto there with a miraculous stone that could cure your mother of your power. But Lenjas family put conditions to marry you to Rofelto before using that stone on your mother and I agreed. However, after hearing no news of Rofelto for some time, three butlers of Lenjas's family descended to the Midgard continent with Rofelto's soul slip and...right after they entered there, his soul slip was turned into ash. You know what that means, right?"

Linci was currently with Dean Lenix, Lady Fu, and Hill master Kledris, who knew about Rofelto's death but was kept shut by Dean Lenix.

The four of them were inside a spacious room, and there was a half-meter square plate on the table with runic patterns. They were talking with Linci's father, who was in upper-chaosverse, through that square plate. It was a product of Runic Artist.

'It looks like the cat is finally out of the bag,' Keldris thought.

Linci took a deep breath, but just as she was going to speak, she sent Dean Lenix a voice transmission, 'send Keldris out.'

Dean Lenix looked at Keldris, and voice transmitted, 'alright, your job is done here, and that chaos oath you took is null now. Go back to what you were doing.'

Keldris bowed and left with some dissatisfaction because he wanted to stay and listen to their talk.

After Keldris left, Linci said, "father, Rofelto met me and showed me that stone as well. He decided to test that stone, and it indeed worked but not for long because that stone seemed to have a capacity that he or you all were not aware of, and once it reached its limit, the stone broke and blasted, killing him in the process."

*Crackk...Boom..*

Dean Lenix and Linci heard the sound of something breaking and a loud boom from the other side and looked at each other with surprise.

Dean Lenix weakly smiled and said, "it looks like the head of Lenjas family is with your father,"

Linci nodded as she decided against revealing the truth after learning of this.

She wanted to tell her father about Athan and how she had found the solution to her mother's problem, but since Rofelto's father was hearing right now, she didn't want to speak any of that.

As such, she asked about her mother's condition.

Linci's father--, "her condition...it's getting worse. Anyway, just stay there and don't come to upper-chaosverse because with her worsened condition, even if you are in upper-chaosverse, your strange power might affect her, and I don't want to take that risk."

He cut off the contact right after that while tears appeared in Linci's eyes.

Dean Lenix sighed as he felt sad for this girl who her own family alienated. Lady Fu also sighed and hugged Linci before saying, "It's ok, dear. Since her condition is worsening, you can tell Athan to speed up to breakthrough to Evagon-realm. You both can go there first to save your mother."

"I-*sniff* I also care for my mother. It's not like I want to harm her," Linci couldn't help but cry.

Linci cried a lot because she was reminded of her situation in her own family after spending good times with Athan and others.

Right now, She honestly believed Athan and others to be her family because she had experienced many first times with them. On the other hand, she was kept in an isolated box in her home in upper-chaosverse right after birth.

However, she still remembers the warmth of her mother as she embraced her while being hurt by her power. She wanted to feel that again, even if it was the last thing she would do before dying.

For half an hour, Lady Fu consoled Linci and said, "let's return now. Athan will definitely save your mother."

"Mhmm...," Linci nodded with some redness in her eyes.

...

Lady Fu and Linci arrived at the Pixel resort where Athan had booked one of the lobbies. Everyone was sitting on different couches and talking.

When they saw Lady Fu and Linci arriving, they stood up as it was time to leave. However, once they looked at Linci, they all knew that something was wrong.

"What happened, Linci?" Athan asked with a frown and a cold light in his eyes.

Lady Fu sighed and answered, "the condition of Linci's mother has worsened. I thi-"

Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Avelia as she hurridly said to Athan with a worry-laced voice, "Athan, you...I think you should break through to Evagon-realm early and save her mother."

Tiana, Sen, Drizzly, and others also nodded.

Linci had pleading eyes as she looked at Athan. She believed that Athan would keep his promise.

Athan approached Linci and patted her head before saying with a smile, "no need to wait until I breakthrough to Evagon-realm. Let's go right now."

"But...unless you breakthrough to Evagon-realm, you can't pass the omnipresent barrier between all lower-chaosverses and the upper-chaosverse," Lady Fu stated with a weak smile.

Athan snorted before saying with a smile, "There's no harm in trying. Lady Fu, wait here for Zorgia before taking everyone to the special-grade chaos phenom dimension."

Tiana smiled gently and said, "go and come back after saving her mother. I know that no barrier can block you if you want to go somewhere."

Athan smiled and nodded as he grabbed Linci's hand flew out before conjuring his cloud of chaos.

"There's should be a way to go to your house in upper-chaosverse since you arrived at Chaos Monolith Hills directly from there, right?" Athan asked.

Linci was currently moved to tears, excited, and felt turbulent waves in her heart. She also believed that no barrier could block Athan, and she just couldn't wait to save her mother.

"Y-yes...*sniff*," Linci wiped the tears and said hurriedly, "Dean Lenix can directly open the cosmic path leading to my house in the upper-chaosverse using a device in Chaos Monolith Hills. It's mostly used to replace Evagon-realm staff from main Chaos Monolith Hills in upper-chaosverse to here. The device is connected to all families affiliated with Chaos Monolith HIlls as well."

"Good," Athan nodded with a smile as he looked at Linci and promised, "we will definitely save your mother."
