Chapter 47: Telling Eva
Chapter 47: Telling Eva
Eva clutched her head as she screamed. The pain first started in the middle of her temple but it soon spread around her head.
Nexus immediately called Marcus. They dashed into her room and asked Zoey who also heard the loud scream, to stay outside.
Marcus and Nexus saw Eva on the bed who looked to be in utter pain, sweating profusely while clutching her head.
Thankfully, it only lasted a few seconds after Marcus and Nexus came in.
Eva woke up. Her breathing was heavy. Her mind's in a mess. She remembered a couple of things. Interactions with people close to her. She also saw the last scene before her death, but most of the faces were blurry except for Marcus and Nexus.
Her eyes were on the ceiling. Nexus slowly walked towards her bedside and stood there with a worried look. Marcus slowly followed.
Eva turned her head towards them. She stared at them for a long time. Not knowing what to say.
The room stayed silent. You'd probably even hear a pin drop.
"What happened?" Nexus asked as he knelt down.
Eva stared at him. Her heart, chaotic.
She looked at Marcus who also had worry in his eyes.
Eva tried her best to compose herself. She opened her mouth twice but nothing came out. On the third time, she cleared her throat and began retelling her dream.
The two boys quietly listened. They often looked at each other but they didn't say anything and were silent until Eva finished.
"Should I or should you?" Marcus asked.

"I'll do it." Nexus's eyes didn't leave Eva's face.
'So they really know something.' Eva thought. She was excited to know what this was all about. She wanted to clear all this up because right now. It felt like memories were injected into her brain.
"So, oh god, where do I start." Nexus paused for a bit. "Those were your past memories. She was you in the past. Welcome back. Oh, and you'll be remembering other parts of your memories soon."
Eva felt something in her head explode. Silence once again descended upon the room. None of them talked. Marcus and Nexus both gave Eva some time to think about it.
"So," Eva raised her head. There was no more confusion. Only anxiousness among other things. "Reincarnation is real?"
"You have all the evidence you need." Nexus smiled.
Eva took a deep breath and looked at Marcus. "Then,"
Marcus nodded. "I also recovered a few parts of my memories of my past life."
Eva exhaled. "Well, this surely lifted my confusion. Thank you for telling me about this, instead of keeping it a secret."
Nexus chuckled. "Why would we keep it a secret? As I said before, you are one of us. It won't be fair if we keep this tiny matter a secret. It might even be disastrous to your cultivation if we keep this from you and wait for you to find out."
The three talked for a long while before the two boys went out. They were immediately replaced by Zoey. Both Marcus and Nexus don't know what Eva did to her but they could now be considered good friends.

Marcus went into the Destrucstone and landed in the living room. White couch with the red carpet underneath, smooth wooden flooring, and a couple of antique furniture. Nothing changed, and there was also no speck of dust on the objects.
Marcus made his way to the area where the rooms were. He went into one of them. A cute little lady lay on the bed of the room, peacefully asleep. Her cute rosy cheeks have long regained their color. Eva had been taking care of her from time to time.
"Hey baby, Big Sis has been the one taking care of you these past few days since I've been busy and, well, unconscious, hahaha" Marcus tried fixing her pillow.
He continued, "How do you think mom and auntie are right now? I do hope they're okay."
Marcus pinched her cheeks, stood up, and left the room.

In the Bridge
Mitz was standing near the window. The captain of the ship, who sat on the captain's seat, called him.
Mitz turned his head and walked towards him. Wondering what happened.
'Could there be an attack?'
"Enforcer Mitz, I just received the list of survivors, and your niece is here." The captain said.
When the Captain was going through the list of people who survived, he saw Zoey's name, Enforcer Mitz's niece. Daughter of his younger brother.
Mitz Xalia's eyes went wide and hurriedly asked. "Sir, what room is she in?!"
The captain told him her room and he hurriedly left.
'Damn, I hope she's alright. My brother is going to have a heart attack if something happened to her.' He thought.
A minute or two later he arrived in front of Marcus's room. He knocked thrice before Ley opened it, one of Marcus's guards.
Mitz scrunched his brows seeing that a man opened the door. 'No! Could it be?'
Mitz coughed. "I'm here to see my niece. A woman with dark blond hair."
Ley nodded, "Please come in. Miss Zoey is currently inside."
Mitz heaved a sigh of relief. 'Oh thank god!'
He went in and saw a teen with vermillion colored hair and a man with black hair and yellow streaks in the middle.
Nexus told Marcus to come out of the stone a while ago because he sensed someone outside the door. Someone beyond the Commander stage.
Marcus already masked his aura. Right now people will only see him as a rank 3 Elite.
"Please sit." Marcus offered as he gestured towards the nearby seat.
The man smiled "Thank you."
Nexus didn't say anything. He stood there quietly. Studying the person.
"Uncle!" Zoey cried.
She came into the room together with Eva.
Mitz looked at them. His eyes fell onto Eva and thought she was beautiful. But that's it. He just thought she was beautiful.
His eyes went back to Zoey and started talking "Little girl, how did you get yourself into trouble this time? What would have happened if the pirates got you?!"
Zoey grinned, she really was an outgoing woman "But nothing happened in the end. We were saved, remember?"
Mitz raised his hands and began shaking it "Yes, yes, you people were saved by the strangers wearing red robes. But still, this would have happened if you didn't run away from home."
Zoey shook her head "How could I not run away from home? Father forced me to get engaged to someone I don't like. I should get to choose who I want to marry!"
Mitz sighed, he already heard this argument before from the father and daughter.
"But Leo is a good kid." Mitz tried to convince her.
"Good kid, bad kid, angel, devil, people from the heavens, they're all the same. If I don't like them they could just piss off" Zoey crossed her arms.
"Ayayay. Anyway, it's you and your father's fight. Just make sure to think about it a little" Mitz had a bitter look on his face.
Nexus chuckled and sent Marcus a telepathic message. "I guess this one is out of the selection."
"I need to find my wives first before even thinking of getting new ones," Marcus replied.
