It sounded very amazing to hear that and almost unbelievable to say the least after Hope heard Kace's explanation about his mate that turned out to be a guardian angel, which was herself.
Hope knew she was different from others people and since she had been living with supernatural creatures for her entire life, could see them when other people couldn't, Hope was not too surprised to learn that she was one of them.
A guardian angel…? Hm… sounded cool!
But there was something that piqued her interest the most from Kace information.
"Why are they extinct?" Hope asked with furrowed on her eyebrows. "Are there other creatures that are also extinct?" Hope kept asking.
Kace stared down at Hope, who was laying on his laps. "No," He said curtly.
"Is there another reason why only guardian angels are extinct?" Hope could feel Kace's peculiar mood the moment she asked about this.
"Because they were not built for war." Kace replied and added. "Guardian angels are spiritually strong, but their physic makes them the weakest creature."
"Really?" Hope widened her eyes. "I think I don't really like the part that the guardian angel is the weakest creature." She frowned. Hope was not accustomed to think that she was weak.
"That's why you have me as your mate, to balance the world." Kace laughed out loud when he watched Hope's face turned unsightly.
"I am not grateful." Hope spoke irritably and this only made Kace's laugh louder.
"For me that is a false paradigm. Because when guardian angel's physic is weak, but like I said, they are the strongest spirit ever." Kace pinched her small nose lightly. He liked to touch her and seemed has a hard time to put his hands off of her. "The problem is, the world we live in now, doesn't appreciate that part, when all the creatures want is a power and authority that requires us to have physical strength."
What Kace said makes sense. He didn't want peace for the world, as it was a farfetched wishing and Kace was not naïve to expect that.
But, in the world where dog bit dog, who would care enough to have a spiritual strength?
On the other hand, more or less, Hope could grasp the surface of this information and knew where the guardian angel was standing in this realm.
Hence, Hope moved to another question. "If they were extinct, then why guardian angels are being resurrected now?" Hope added. "I assume there are two more like me out there since you said the guardian angels are also bestowed to your brothers."
"Yes, it supposed to be there are two more like you for my annoying brother." Kace grinned. It couldn't be said Kace was in good term with his brothers. Their relationship was very tense lately.
"Did they found theirs?" Hope was curious, she wanted to see what the other guardian angel looked like.
"I don't know. We are kind of, lost contact with each other." Kace tried to phrase it as simple as possible.
"Then why the guardian angel is being resurrected now?" Hope asked curiously. "Is there a purpose for that?"
Hope's sensibility to see through the situation surprised Kace again. She had been asking about the most important part of the whole secrets that was hidden from her until now.
"There is…" Kace nodded. At this point, he was unsure whether it was the right choice to tell her or not. But Hope's eyes told him to continue. "In the first war, together with the guardian angel, Lycanthropes and a few other creatures we managed to suppress the devil's power. Not destroy them, only weaken them."
"Wait." Something clicked in Hope's mind as she started to grasp this pattern. "You want to say with the resurrection of the guardian angel, there will be another war with the devil?"
"You are very smart!" Kace pinched her cheeks. "Just like I expected from my mate."
Hope pulled out her tongue and sneered. "What kind of war? Is it like Game of Thrones kind of war?" Hope shifted her position and now she laid flat on her stomach.
"Why I have an impression that you are excited about this?" Kace leaned over to observe Hope's expression closer.
"I don't…" Hope shook her head vigorously. "I just think it is cool that my life has a purpose and I have an important mission to save the world!" Hope exclaimed, her eyes beamed with enthusiasm.
The corner of Kace's lips twitched when he heard that. "You are watching movie too much!" he knock her head. "Instead of thriller, we should have watched romance in our first date."
Hope pouted. "No way. I want my life to be filled with action and challenge instead of tears and erratic emotions." Hope sat down and stared at Kace straight into his blue ocean eyes. "Kicking some evil creature is more fun than crying because of the misunderstandings that often occur in love, right?"
"I know this." Kace sighed helplessly. ��I shouldn't leave you with Serefina. This is a mistake from the beginning." He shook his head regretfully.
"So, what we should do now? Is there some weapon that we need to find? Or will we go into a journey to find a powerful sage to help us win this war? Is this what Serefina, Lana and you have been doing all this time? Recruiting more creatures to help win the war?"
Kace narrowed his eyes, he was caught by surprise with Hope's reaction upon this matter. "I don't know if your reaction will be like this."
Hope laughed when she watched Kace's disbelieve expression. "What do you expect?"
But, the thing that Hope forgot to ask for detail was; how the guardian angel helped during the war that caused them to become extinct from this realm. Hope was not aware about this, at least, not now when she was too excited with the possibilities in her head.
"Now, tell me why you didn't call me when you could call Lana?"
