Chapter 67 - President (6)

"Tell me what secret you want to erase."

"Why?" Angel frowned as she looked at Nida. "Is this some kind of collateral?"

"I need security, a pledge to protect me whatever may happen." She said sternly, which made Angel sigh in response.

"Do you remember Joe and where you first met him?"

"Are you trying to change the topic?"

"No, I am going to tell you, but it will be a long story, so let's start with Joe."

"Joe is the werewolf that I killed, right?" Nida slowly approached her and decided to sit since she could sense that they would be talking for a long time.

"Yes, he was running after the person who stole his core. Actually, he was with two other werewolves. "

Nida looked at her seriously as she waited for her to finish her statement.

I am actually the one who stole it, and I am the one who they are fighting with.

Nida furrowed her brows as she leant forward.

"Does that mean that it's your fault that I was turned into a priestess? " She was about to get angry, but Angel immediately corrected her.

"How is it my fault? Before you are even born, you are already fated to be a priestess. "

Nida shut her mouth as she remembered what Mila had said to her. 'Ah right, I was chosen by her since birth.'

She then gestured with her hand to ask Angel to continue telling her story.

Angel cleared her throat and fixed her collar before continuing.

"The three werewolves found out that I am an elf and were in the middle of shutting them up, but three werewolves are still hard to suppress, so I started to blackmail them with their core."

"How did you even take their core?"

"I was desperate for Wendell to not know the truth, so I asked for the help of the church."

"Church? I thought they were your enemies. "

"The werewolves are their adversaries, but not me. I am an elf. Elves are light-attributed supernatural beings, which is why we are fine in the eyes of the church. They lent me a hand to suppress them, but Joe managed to get away, and that's how you meet him. On the other hand, I no longer have any problem with Joe since he has already lost his memories, and I have to erase the memories of the two. "

"Where are the two then?"

"They are not doing anything now because I still have their cores."

"Then don't just give it to them."

"That's dangerous for me and my child. I need something to make sure we can live without worrying that someone will spill the truth. "

"That is why you're asking me to help you alter their memories."

"Yes."

Nida closes her eyes for a moment to think while Angel lets her think and decide.

"Okay, deal!" Angel perked up as she felt relieved that Nida had agreed to help her.

"When should we start?" 

"We can do it today."

"What do you mean now? Is there no preparation or something needed before doing it? "

You just need to lend me your power. I will do all the work! " She said it with a trusting expression.

Nida looked at her with doubt but agreed to her anyway.

"Wait, what about Randell? I'm dating him now! It wouldn't be right if we erased his memories too. "

"We can exclude him if you want, but are you okay with one soul knowing that you are a priestess?"

"How about yourself?" She asked, since Angel mentioned there being only one soul, which means Angel wouldn't be counted.

"I plan to erase my involvement with you as well after we are done with my issue. Is it better if we cut ties and I forget about you so I can fully erase your existence as a priestess? I hate hassle. "

Angel's only focus is to cover her and her daughter's identities. She only wished to remain Wendell's wife and continue her act as a werewolf.

She doesn't love his pack and doesn't like the dark attributes of supernatural beings, but she is doing all of this because of her affection for Wendell, the love of her life.

Nida is amazed by Angel's way of thinking, but she can't help but agree with her ideas.

"Then when are we going to do it?"

"Good timing, there is a conference later this night!"

"Conference?"

"Yes! Werewolves will gather in one place tonight. We can alter their memories at that time. We will deal with your issue first. "

"Are you doing it in one go?"

"Which one? I will alter those wolves later because I can't jumble your memory altering with mine. "

"So are we working together twice?"

"Yes, so come here later and let's do it." She handed her a sticky note with an address sticker on it.

The moment she raised her head to ask her again, the place changed and Angel was not in front of her anymore.

She's back in the hallway, and she nearly fell on her buttocks because she was sitting on the couch, and that couch vanished with the change of location.

"Nida, what are you doing here?" Randell asked as he walked closer to her. He was about to greet her with a kiss, but she reflexively avoided him again.

She cursed her reflexes.

"Sorry." She kissed him again as an apology.

"Which is it?" Randell said as he looked at her with confusion.

"What?"

"Do you hate being kissed or do you just want the one who should kiss?"

"What the heck are you talking about?" She brushed her fingers against Randell's face and then looked at her fingers, which felt sticky.

"Oh, no! I run here, that is why I am sticky! " He grabbed her hand and cleaned her fingers with his handkerchief.

"You run? Why? "

"My work is done, but it will take eight hours to get back here, so I run back. It is faster with my legs. "

"If you are here already, then you should also run to go there."

"Yes, I missed you." He sweetly held himself back from hugging her since he was sweaty and dirty from all the dirt he got from running on the highway.

"Won't they know?"

"Know what?"

"How could you even get here that fast as a normal person?"

"Don't bother with the details; the important thing is that I am here." He smiled brightly, and that made Nida skip a beat. 

She feels like his glowing, handsome face might blind her, despite the fact that he is all sweaty and dirty.

"Wait for me, I'll wash up."

"Sure, I actually hadn't finished any work at all."

"Let's go outside. Manager Bungal is not here. Let's skip work. "

"We can just eat together tonight. I'll be scolded again if he finds it out. "

"Don't worry, he will not know, and I can't see you tonight. That is why I am asking you to eat with me now."

"Why? Are you going somewhere?"

"Nothing much. I have a family gathering tonight, which is why I really can't meet you later."

"Family gathering?"

Nida gasped internally as she realized what Randell was talking about.

'That is the conference Angel is talking about!'

Nida now realized the difference between the werewolf's and the elf's perspective.

Angel calls it a conference, as if it were a business thing, but Randell calls it a family gathering because he will be meeting with his pack members with whom he shares the same blood and roots.

"Okay, I have no say when it comes to family. Go and change. I'll look for a good place to eat," she said, as she got excited about eating food.

She actually needs to eat a lot since she will need a lot of energy to cast her dust to fuel the elf casting to erase any trace of being a priestess.

'It's nice that the wolves will forget about me, but it would be better if she could also erase the gods' memories. I also want to erase my connection to Mila.' she thought as she watched Randell walking out of the hallway to change.

'Should I tell him or not?'

She thought as she think of better things to do.

She is guessing that Randell will go against the idea, which is why she is hesitating to tell him.

'I hope he won't hate me for this.'

She stopped worrying about tonight's important event and went back to her chair, becoming upset again as she remembered all the tasks she needed to rush through.

She needs to at least finish doing at least one file before she can go out of the office without worries.

She should be rushing and speeding up her work, but she ends up browsing on the internet and looking for a nice place to eat.

"Whatever, I'll just receive the scolding wholeheartedly," she said as she gave up on finishing her work and spent her time looking up on the internet while Randell was showering to look fresh again.
