The Shadow Clan

Identity and Destiny

"Good morning," Cecilia said while giving Aji a warm smile. 

Aji turned to look at Cecilia with a straight look. Whether it was a dream or something beyond reason that Aji had difficulty understanding, it was still clearly remembered in Aji's mind. About Scotd's order to kill Cecilia. So when he saw Cecilia, Aji immediately felt tense.

"How did you sleep? Is it good enough?" asked Cecilia because Aji was just silent and still looking at her without blinking. 

Aji woke up from the reverie. 

"Yes. I slept pretty well," Aji replied.

Cecilia smiled. 

Shortly afterwards a doctor and a nurse came. They were about to check Cecilia's condition. 

"Who is he, Miss Cecilia? Why is he in your room?" asked the doctor with a look of astonishment. 

Actually, there is no problem if there is a family visiting or waiting for patients overnight. However, because he saw Aji's appearance that was still shabby. Makes doctors and nurses feel astonished.

"He's Aji. He's my best friend," Cecilia replied without forgetting her smile. 

The doctor and nurse looked at Aji once again. They are still equally surprised by Aji's existence. Because as far as they know, it is impossible for Cecilia to associate with the poor. Because Cecilia herself came from a family of officials. Whose property is willing to buy 5 large hospitals. 

"I see? Sorry, we saw it for the first time, Miss," the doctor said politely. 

Seeing how the doctor and nurse spoke and behaved in front of Cecilia, made Aji both amazed and horrified. It was only the first time to see anyone respected to such an extent.

"It's okay. You guys want to check me out today, right? Hurry up and do it, because I want to rest again quickly," said Cecilia. 

The doctor and nurse immediately checked Cecilia's condition. And it only took 2 minutes, their inspection was over. 

"Miss's condition has improved a bit. Hopefully this will continue until Miss can be declared recovered," said the doctor and left. Before leaving the room even left, the doctor and nurse greeted Aji. 

Aji, who had never received such treatment, was happy and confused. So Aji was only able to be stunned when the doctor and nurse threw greetings at him. 

"You are, really a great person," Aji said hesitantly. 

Cecilia smiled at Aji's attitude that returned to formality.

"Just talk casually. We are equal. After all, the great one is not me. But father, he is an official in this area. So it's natural that they come to respect like that, "explained Cecilia. 

"County official?" Aji was quite surprised to hear that. 

"Yes. He governs the districts in this city," Cecilia said. 

Aji's gaze came down. Inexplicably, after knowing that, his heart felt tight and painful. He lived in this city for 15 years. And in those 15 years, nothing made him feel safe and happy. Every day, only torture and beatings were received. There's nothing else but that. 

"If I may know, as a county official. What policy did your father put in place?" asked Aji as he tried to hide his anger. 

"Nothing," Cecilia replied curtly.

Deg! Aji's anger dam seemed to be about to break and was ready to spill all his anger. However, Cecilia's next answer made Aji speechless. 

"He, doesn't care about what happens in this city. So there are not many things he does. Once he does something, it is also for his personal benefit. He enriches himself. Seeing the little people is like seeing cockroaches in a dirty sewer. He, really amazing. Unbelievably cruel. And because of that, I want to change this world. We must win this Ragnarok. Then after that, we will remodel this world again with you who will be the king. Just like before, just like when we changed this world long ago."

"This world will be irreversible. This world, has come to an end. There is no more humanity here. The social sense is dead. Saving this world, will only make the rich and powerful people there happy. Because their time to enjoy their treasures is getting longer," Aji replied.

"You are wrong. By winning this Ragnarok, lives can be changed. Don't you know?"

"Know what?" asked Aji.

"The reward of winning this Ragnarok. The planet that occupies the top position, will get 1 request. And 1 request must have been granted," Cecilia replied. 

Aji laughed after hearing Cecilia's answer. 

"Is this a magic lamp fairy tale that can grant anything? Don't be kidding. That kind of thing doesn't exist in this world."

"There really isn't. On this planet, it exists. And it just became a fairy tale. But such a miracle, is elsewhere. If only all your memories had returned, of course you would know that what I said is not nonsense. In this vast universe, there are still many things we don't know. And it's still a mystery," Cecilia said with a serious face.

Aji looked at Cecilia's face. He felt that Cecilia was not lying to him. However, Aji's common sense still doubted that. He still couldn't believe it. 

"If that's the case, that kind of crazy thing can happen. I will ask that all mankind be annihilated." said Aji.

Cecilia was actually a little surprised by what Aji said. However, he just kept silent and let Aji say at will. Because Cecilia knows, Aji's mental state is currently weak. And only filled with emotions and resentment due to the actions of those around him.

"You can ask whatever you want, if we do get that victory." 

Cecilia's answer made Aji's heart feel dissatisfied. Like something is missing. It's like something is not reached. 

"Do you really agree with my decision to exterminate humans even though I managed to win this Ragnarok?" asked Aji, hoping Cecilia would give another answer. 

"The Shadow Clan is destined to become the true King of this planet. Of course, with you, who are the successors of the clan, entitled to that fate. So whatever your will and decision as King, I will accept wholeheartedly," said Cecilia. 

Aji clenched his fists. He was not happy with that fate. Meanwhile, his life has been filled with misery. 

"The king will not be born among the poor. Don't try to persuade me. I will still annihilate the people living on this earth. Including me," Aji said then got out of the room and jumped away through the kalpataru tree. 

After Aji left, Cecilia sighed. 

"Why hasn't his memory come back yet. It should be, after I awakened, all his memories and all his strength had returned. Is there something wrong?" thought Cecilia thoughtfully.
