Chapter 203 I Only Know The Possibilities, Not The Outcome

"You suddenly collapsed when we appeared in this place. The sins exchanged a silent glance but didn't say anything. Hecate declared that you were exhausted but it was obvious that she was lying.

They then asked whether I wanted to come with them right there or stay with you until you woke up. As you can see, I stayed here. Wade was offered the same choice but he went with them." Amber explained.

Jason and her were sitting inside her room. The former had asked her about what had happened to once he had appeared in the demon continent.

"I guess we have to go with them now." Jason sighed.

"I guess. Also, your grandma is quite cool. She actually taught me this so I don't get bored." Amber raised her right hand and summoned a fireball made from black flames.

Jason blinked in surprise when he saw the black flames resting on Amber's palm.

"How long was I out for again?"

"Around a day or so. I am a fast learner when it comes to flame related things."

As if to prove her point, Amber manipulated the flames to create a Phoenix.

The bird flew around the room before coming to rest on top of Jason's head.

Surprisingly, the bird didn't radiate any heat towards Jason.

"Are there any other forms of flame magic?" Jason asked curiously.

The black flames had reminded him of the different types of thunder he had.

"Dunno. I'll ask your grandmother later on. I guess I could ask my parents as well..." with a snap of her fingers, the Phoenix vanished. "Shall we go?"

"Sure."

Jason and Amber stood up at the same time and moved out of the room.

"Do you know your way around here?" Amber questioned.

"No need. I'll just summon Astryn here." Jason replied before sitting down on his knees.

He dripped the floor with his blood and said Astryn's name.

In the blink of an eye, Astryn appeared right in front of the two children.

"When will the sins come to pick us up?" Jason questioned.

"If you want, I can get Fel to contact them right now," Astryn suggested. "There's no knowing when they will show up themselves."

"Hmm, might as well do it."

After hearing his response, Astryn once again guided them through the mysterious halls.

'Amon went with the sins as well. So much for being my protector...'

[ Actually, he placed a mark on you. If you were in danger, the mark would instantly teleport him to your location regardless of any protective formation... ]

'Why do people always love to hold on to details until a very crucial moment?' Jason grumbled.

Five minutes later, he was standing in front of Fel. It had happened so suddenly that Jason found it a little hard to believe.

Astryn had suddenly stopped walking and a second later, Fel had appeared in front of Jason.

If he hadn't seen Seshat use space magic, Jason would have sworn that Fel had used space manipulation.

"Hmm..." Fel's eyes moved up and down Jason's body as he examined his grandson.

Jason felt as though Fel's eyes were piercing right through his skin and were noticing every single detail of his body.

"Did he get the narcissistic side?" Fel asked in a low tone.

"No, he didn't, at least not on Issac's level." Astryn replied with a smile.

Fel sighed in relief before looking Jason in the eyes. A silent exchange happened between them before Fel put a hand on Jason's shoulder.

"Jason, always remember one thing," Fel said in a serious tone. "Never trust Risa's teleportation abilities, Issac's negotiation abilities and Astryn's mediator abilities."

Jason blinked in surprise at the random piece of advice Fel had thrown his way.

"Don't trust his future predicting abilities." Astryn added from the side.

Even though she wanted to refute Fel's words, Astryn knew that her husband was correct.

Instead of calming the two sides, she would inflame them or leave them both destroyed. Things were more fun that way.

"Yeah, yeah. I know that in the future, I'll definitely see you dressed in a maid outfit while you will be wearing a butler's clothes." Fel predicted while pointing at Jason and Amber.

The maid outfit prediction was aimed at Jason the butler one was aimed at Amber.

'I shouldn't trust his words, right?'

[ Don't worry too much. This is not that kind of story. Only jokes will be entertained. ]

'...'

Jason felt like facepalming yet refrained from doing so. He simply wondered what he had done to get such a bizarre yet caring pair of grandparents.

"Anyways, let me send you off to the sins." Fel interrupted before flicking his hands in Jason's direction. "By the way, it was quite pleasing to meet our future granddaughter-in-law."

Jason coughed loudly while Amber blushed a little. Neither of them agreed or opposed Fel's statement.

"I guess that's one prediction I would like to be true." Astryn winked. "See you both soon."

Jason and Amber slowly vanished from their spots and went ahead on their journey.

Astryn and Fel on the hand sighed simulateneously.

"How much of that was true?" Astryn asked.

"I don't know. I only know the possibilities, not the outcome. For example, I saw a future where Jason loves cross dressing followed by another where he was turned into a masochist.

Then there was one that showed him traveling into a cave with the sins. All three of them have different chances of coming true yet all of them are possibilities," Fel paused. "I've explained thus many times."

"I know. It's just fun to hear you talk about your powers." Astryn smiled. "It was due to this that the demon king granted you the position of a commander."

"Sometimes I wish my powers were a bit different. Some possibilities are rather... frightening." Fel shuddered a bit as he remembered the various nightmares he had seen.

Astrun gently hugged him from behind and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Don't worry, I won't leave you behind. Even if a possibility like that exists, I'll smash it." Astryn whispered in his ear.

"I know." Fel smiled slightly before kissing Astryn.

Despite this, he knew that every possibility, including the worst and the best ones, might come true in the future...
