Chapter 16: Lucia

An eerie place engulfed in darkness, you could sense a weighty and eerie feeling, a shining crystal floated in the corner, a figure sat beside it.

An abrupt opening of his eyes caused the shining crystal to disappear.

"Who is it?" after sensing the surrounding carefully he found out Ramos is standing outside. He went there to meet him. He could see his worried expression.

Ramos, what's the matter? Want to come inside?" Baras asked.

Both went to a room filled with many wines, You can feel that this is a miniature pub.

Why do you look worried, Ramos? What happened?" Baras enquired.

"I think she intervened," Ramos said urgently.

"Who is it?" Baras inquired, wondering who might be making Ramos nervous

"Lucia"

"WHAT?" Baras asked hurriedly.

"When did this happen? She shouldn't have come out again, she nearly destroyed half of the Universe last time if it hadn't been for that person's intervention!"

"Hah," Ramos sighed.

"I think I messed up; I got bored of playing games with that mortal, so I decided to end it."

And you know what? My connection has broken. It's impossible for me to even touch that mortal anymore." Ramos sighed.

How are you sure that's her?" Baras asked

You already know, Baras, that no one may intrude upon my business, except for her and that individual. And that individual doesn't even care about anyone."

"The only woman I respect in this world is she," Ramos sighed dejectedly, "I hope that she won't come after me, I don't want to stand against her."

"What is the matter with that mortal?" Baras asked in a worried tone.

The future of his life is now in his own hands; he has the system by his side; and I have no idea what his future holds now." Ramos said.

"What is that system?" Baras asked cautiously.

"In a way, it's like an assistant for mortals that will help them grow. It is intelligent and guides them along the best possible paths to growth," Ramos said after reminiscing.

"By the way, why are you looking worried?" Ramos asked curiously.
