The World Serpent

Upon hearing Persia's words, Ego realized the tears escaping from her eyes. She slowly rubbed them with her pale fingers as she calmed her heart. It was the first time she cried this much. She didn't know why but she had a feeling that it came from the skill of her Sister. The skill was dangerous. If not for the fact that Ego had already known of her Sister's skill. She might have also believed that her Sister had disappeared. 

'Ego's crying, but why?' Persia found herself confused until she activated her detection skills. Upon activating it, she felt the Inquisitors running towards the throne room. Some of them instantly teleported within it. Above the heavens of the Fortress Bastion, the Great Rulers of the Great Forest were also on stand by. 

Seeing the confused expression of her Sister, Ego understood that she needed to explain the situation. After all, it might lead to misunderstanding, and Persia might take it as the attack of the Great Rulers. The emotionless expression of Ego went back, and Ego started explaining the situation to Persia. 

"Sister, the Activation of your skill led to yourself disappearing. But it didn't end there. Everything about you slowly started disappearing. Even your presence disappeared, rocking the Realm of Piksyon. It was as if a vast ocean disappeared." Ego said with her emotionless voice as Persia nodded in understanding though she was still staring at Ego. 

Persia sighed as she understood that she messed up when she activated the skill to its max. She looked at Ego with an expression of guilt as she started walking towards Ego. Ego, on the other hand, was confused. She titled her head as she wondered what her Sister wanted to do.

Standing in front of Ego, Persia looked at Ego right in the eyes and hugged her tightly. Ego was frozen as she couldn't muster the strength to move. Persia then uttered with a calm voice. "I won't disappear, and I won't ever leave. I promise, I'll stay with you forever." 

The possibility might not be high, but Persia could simply abandon everything and disappear as if she didn't exist. The ones that would suffer would be under her. She was the pillar of their worlds, and she acknowledged that. She already promised herself to not leave those she considered family. 

"I know that, Sister." Ego smiled as she had a thankful voice upon saying it. It was different from her normal emotionless voice. She was grateful for the words of her Sister. But if her Sister does want to leave, she wouldn't stubbornly stop her Sister. After all, she has to be the supportive one. 

It doesn't matter what the choices her Sister does. She would always accept them and stand on her Sister's side. They have been together in the beginning, and that was enough for Ego. 

"Anyway, it seems that I caused a lot of problems in the Nation of Azathoth." Persia sighed as she felt the Inquisitors gathering in the throne room. She then activated the Origin Skill Gate resulting in a Silver Gate slowly forming in front of them. As the Silver Gate completed its formation, the two of them entered and exited in the opposite Silver Gate.

As they exited the Silver Gate, they found themselves in the Throne Room surrounded by hundreds of Inquisitors. Looking at the expressions of the Inquisitors, it seems that the Inquisitors had a face of shock and fear. It was like hearing someone important to you dying at one moment. Such were the expressions they had plastered on their faces. 

"I apologized for causing a mass panic. I was testing a certain skill, and I went too far with it. I never thought that it would worry all of you and end up causing a chaotic mess." Persia said with an apologetic voice. The Inquisitors, on the other hand, sighed in relief upon seeing their Master. 

They had thought that a strong enemy had invaded and caused the disappearance of their Master. They were ready to die if it would bring their Master back. Fortunately, it seems that their Master conducted a skill test. Though, it would have been good if their Master had warned them about the skill. 

If bringing destruction upon the Realm of Piksyon would give them a chance to rescue their Master. The Inquisitors would do it without any hesitation. Some might have noticed it, but some might not. If the Inquisition was the Organization of Azathoth, then Persia would be the God of the Inquisition. 

"You don't have to apologize, Master. Though, It would have been better if you had warned us about you conducting your skills. We were quite shocked at the complete disappearance of your presence. We even felt the Great Rulers above the heavens of the Fortress Bastion. We thought that something serious happened." Luna said with a calm voice. 

To be honest, Luna's body was still shaken upon the disappearance of Persia. It simply wasn't a normal disappearance. It was like the trace of existence signifying Persia was slowly disappearing. The connection between Persia and the Inquisitors couldn't be felt. Well, the fears of Luna didn't happen, and there was no need to continue nagging their Master for it. 

"As what Luna had said, Master. There is no need for you to apologize for it. As Inquisitors, We shouldn't have panicked when you disappeared. We might even misunderstand the situation and become crazy people." Capita said with her emotionless voice though it had a tinge of sorrow. 

Misunderstanding and Suspicious were poisons. Only Trust was the antidote. They might be cold to others if their Master disappeared. They would even close the Gates of Azathoth and open it after their Master came back. A foolish plan, but in the end, they were still simple ones.

"But, I'm the foolish one for not giving a warning to my Subordinates. It is my responsibility to lead the Inquisition and Azathoth. After all, I am the Great Ruler. Having a vacation is okay but disappearing without any warning is still desertion." Persia then looked upwards as she gazed through the ceiling and looked at the Great Rulers. 

"Tsk, everything is becoming complicated. Anyway, the Inquisitors will continue what they were doing. I want to make up for my mistakes. But, I will talk with the Great Rulers for now." Persia gave her orders as the Inquisitors looked at her for a while before saluting. They started leaving the throne room until the Three Governors, Ego, and Persia were the only ones in the throne room. 

"The Four of you should go down. I'm tired of looking up." Persia said as she sat back at her throne. She underestimated the effect of invisibility. She was curious at its limits, but she wouldn't want to make her Subordinates suffer. If she wanted to test such a skill, It would be in front of her Subordinates. 

In an instant, four figures appeared in front of the throne. They were the Four Great Rulers of the Great Forest. The Supremes of the Pentagon Union. Statera, Koldreg, Kitsune, and Drya, the Strongest Great Rulers who stand along with Persia. They were looking at Persia with a perplexed expression. 

"An accident happened which caused the disappearance of my presence," Persia explained as the Four continued looking at her. Statera sighed and walked forward. Standing in front of Persia, she spoke with a calm and soothing voice. 

"Your presence wasn't the only thing that disappeared." Her words echoed as the remaining Great Rulers nodded in agreement. They thought that someone or something brought judgment upon their junior. They also wanted to help her if she was fighting a powerful foe. 

"Your existence itself disappeared at that moment, and the results are more serious than what you currently thought. Those that have little to no memories about you forgot who you are. I thought at first that it was a large-scale attack that wipes out memories about you." Kitsune moved forward and spoke about what she thought about the situation. 

"Correct, I tested this theory and found that a lot of people forgot about you. Only those with influence or vast power can remember who you are. This would mean that a lot of people lost their memories related to you, which results in our rumor plan failing. But since all of us are ready, I guess it isn't that much of a loss, but an advantage instead." Drya said as she had a serious expression plastered on her face. 

"Our Junior is really a troublemaker. But, I guess as Seniors, we would have to take care of our Junior." Koldreg smirked while gazing upon Persia. Persia smiled and stood up. She walked towards the Great Rulers and said. "I'm sorry for bringing trouble. It was my fault. Anyway, the four of you are rather fast." 

"It is not that we are fast, but your disappearance was too vast. It can be felt all over the Realm of Piksyon. Even the Great Continental Regional Armies got affected by it. It brought great waves upon the Realm Piksyon." Statera sighed as she was also testing her new Origin Skill. She managed to create a new race known as Titans. She only created one, which was a Giant Humanoid Creature with Four Legs and Four Arms. 

"Also, I have my own business. I want to talk about the Eternal Sword and the Results of my research about it." Koldreg said as he took out the Eternal Sword. Persia looked at the Eternal Sword as she was also curious about it. It has been a while since she saw the Eternal Sword. 

"I see... It seems that all of you have business with me. Well, then. I guess I'll have to make sure that you aren't wasting your time while staying in my home.." A smile slowly formed on Persia's face.
