Guardian Of The End

"Let\'s leave these two here," Amon suggested. "We can talk peacefully inside a soundless bubble if you want to discuss something important."

Hearing his words, the remaining sins and Hecate landed on the ground. Amon snapped his fingers and created a barrier that would prevent any entity, except godly beings, from hearing their conversation.

"Jason, you might have recently seen some parts of my memories once you removed that piece of mist I had left inside that demi-human woman," Hecate explained. "Do you know why Lucius wants to get you to the demon kingdom?"

Jason didn\'t open his mouth and simply nodded in response. He put his money on the fact that Hecate had no idea what memories he had seen.

If that turned out to be true, he could get some important information out of her.

"We are here to talk to you about that. Lucius wants you to visit the demon kingdom with all of us and get to know your mother\'s side of the family better. We want you to get a bit familiarized with the demon continent.

Other than that, you will have to bring two people called Amber Feuer and Wade along with you as well. Only Amon can accompany you as a companion or protector from this place."

Jason took a minute to process all the information that had just been dumped on his head. The sins were inviting him to visit the demon kingdom together with them.

Not only that but Lucius had indirectly admitted the true purpose for Jason\'s visit. It was clear that the demon king would definitely meet him during his trip.

"What do you think he will say about this?" Jason questioned Amon while looking in Issac\'s direction.

"To be honest, he will definitely oppose this thing. He has already lost so much and with the whole Julian fiasco, I don\'t think he will allow you to go. But if you talk to Risa, I am sure you can convince her to let you go."

Amon suddenly placed a hand on Jason\'s shoulder. With a serious face, he said, "that\'s if you actually want to go there. You don\'t have to force yourself to go for someone else\'s sake."

After saying that, Amon snapped his fingers to remove the barrier surrounding the place.

Jason fell deep in thought as Issac came to stand beside him.

"I guess you guys did end up having the talk without me." He sighed. "I\'ve to admit that the sin of lust isn\'t that weak."

Diana, who was standing a few meters away, blinked in surprise. She felt disappointed in herself since she wasn\'t able to charm Issac despite using the strongest of her charm.

Though she hadn\'t used her demonic or divinity powers, she had still used enough charm able to make a small kingdom fall down on their knees.

"You will have to do better if you want to do something to me. But then, if you use your true powers, you will alert the nearby forces about your arrival.

I am sure that your arrival here couldn\'t have been that smooth even with teleportation magic. There are barriers preventing that from happening. You must have used the help of an insider to come here." Issac guessed.

The sins looked at Hecate who nodded with a tired expression.

"First we had to subdue the combined guards placed around the edges of the continent. Once we had gotten that clear, we made contact with someone Nero had gotten to know over the years.

That guy knows how to manipulate people. With his help, we were able to sneak inside but our powers are way too attracting." Hecate sighed. "If Jason\'s sensory abilities are trained, I am sure he would\'ve have sensed both me and the sins."

"Indeed. He has the powers of both a high level noble demon as well as a guardian. Combining them, he would have been able to sense us from thousands of kilometers away." Juliana agreed.

"It doesn\'t really matter right now," Manny pointed out. "Our job here is done. You know what we have to do next."

The remaining sins nodded before they started vanishing. Only Diana and Hecate remained behind.

"Amon, do you want to come?" Diana asked in a gentler tone.

"I guess I will oversee this event. I won\'t interfere unless the safety of the sins is compromised." Amon closed his eyes and vanished from his spot as well.

Diana did the same, leaving the guardian of Mistopia alone with the grandpa-grandson pair.

"I am sorry for what I did to your family member," Hecate blurted out. "I was chasing after Jason since he was the best vessel for me but I was wrong there. He is the perfect vessel but there are many others things in this world."

In front of their eyes, Hecate bowed down. Jason and Issac exchanged a glance, wondering whether they were seeing the correct thing or not.

"Uh…" Issac tried searching for the correct words to speak but couldn\'t find them.

He hadn\'t expected Hecate to suddenly apologize to them for the things she did in the past.

"Well, a simple sorry isn\'t enough to make up for the things you did. Make sure you don\'t show yourself in front of Zara or Ray. I am sure both of them are itching to get a hit on you," Issac stated. "You can go now."

"Hestia says you changed," Jason suddenly said. "She is asking how you changed so quickly."

"It wasn\'t quick at all. I just met some certain people which made me look at the world of mortals from a new perspective." Hecate smiled. "I will be looking forward to seeing you in the future."

With her final words, Hecate vanished from her spot and went to meet the six sins.

"What did they tell you about?" Issac questioned curiously.

"They invited me to visit my maternal grandparents house." Jason sighed. "They also asked to bring Amber and Wade with me. Amon will be our guardian there."

"Who is this Wade guy?"

"One of my classmates from the special class. He didn\'t get to enter the chamber cause he couldn\'t clear the trial of fear. I wonder how he is doing currently." Jason replied absentmindedly.

"Do you want to go there?" Issac asked at last.

Jason slowed down and glanced up at the sky. There was internal conflict going on inside him. One side of him wanted to visit the demon continent while the other one wanted to play safe and remain at Duphia.

At last, Jason reached his conclusion.

"I will tell you after talking with Amber."
