To say that everything were digested by the young lady of Choi clan is such a lie. Because at the very moment, the brown-haired lady kept glancing at the three other ladies who are looking back at her. The faces of the three ladies are clad with seriousness that made Youi more confused.

She cannot believe it more, here stands in front of her are two goddess and a huntress. Although it is still a puzzle for her, how did Piper managed to be one of Artemis' huntress when the Goddess herself wants her servants to be pure and untainted?

Oh well, the Goddess do have a daughter, what shall she expect more?

"Okay, alright, let me just swallow and understand it all—wow, just wow." Youi is overwhelmed, clearly. The moment the light engulfed her wardrobe cabinet had her heart racing. Just now, it is slowly pacing back to it's original beat.

"Go on, we're not rushing you." Reidle answered while playing with her blue highlights, the sapphire blue hue of her eyes matched her two-tone hair perfectly. Piper cannot help but to gawk at her beloved.

It made her giddy and so smitten once again. She would go crazy just to see her Reidle wear this serene facet.

"She might melt." Hades spoke, not daring to look away from her Persephone as Youi kept massaging her temples.

"Stop being such a bitter woman for once and just appreciate yours." Piper replied, her hands now holding Reidle's as she let her own golden eyes be drowned into her woman's sapphire blue eyes.

"Psh." Hades placed her hand under her chin as she watch Persephone. The other is still massaging her temple as she stare into the floor, trying to process everything.

She cannot believe it, she had seen the Greek deities in such a random moment that she herself is still in awe.

"Don't think too much of it, my lady. It is bound to happen sooner or later." Hades stood and calmed the other. She cannot have her being this stressed towards a common thing—well, for her it is indeed common as she lives with them and even had a fight with her father's wife.

"I just..." Youi looked at the pink-haired lady that is looking down at her face, wearing nothing but her damn attractive serious face.

"What, my lady? Speak your mind. Do not be burdened by your thoughts, I am here to listen and do what I have to." Hades spoke, her voice sounded so calm and soft in Youi's ears that she felt something was indeed removed and her breath is back to it's stable pace.

She once again looked at Hades, wondering what kind of effect does the other have on her.

"Rest now, my lady. I am here to safe guard you. No one can touch you, not a single strand of your hair nor your finger tip is to be tainted by human's desire." Hades added. She saw the tint of worry and other unneeded things inside the latter's brown eyes. She must let her lady feel safe and not troubled.

"What about the—" Youi stopped her own words when she saw how Reidle and Piper laid on the couch bed. Looks like, the two have knowledge about human's things. After all, the two had spent a lot of days doing missions after missions for their parents and relatives.

"Sleep now, my lady. Do not waste any more worry about the things that are not meant to be cared for." Hades spoke. Youi slowly nodded and laid on the bed, her eyes not leaving the pink-haired lady that took the spot beside her.

"Sleep." With that word, Youi closed her eyes and soon she was in her pit of dreams.

Hades on the other hand is deeply thinking, if Hermes had addressed Reidle as his child then it means there are two of them who both possess the gift of the Gods. The gift of everything, the gift of all. But what of it? What is the function of it? What was it for? Is it meant to help her? Or is it meant to burden her?

But looking and judging the way Reidle shone earlier, as if a thing was removed on her shoulder, it means that she is free. She is finally free from whatever kind of prophecy was placed to her.

Hades sat on the bed as she continue to think.

Does Reidle's revelation have a relation to her prophecy or it's nothing? She cannot miss any single thing about it, her long prophecy.

"Stop thinking and sleep, your thoughts are deafening." Piper spoke, not opening her eyes.

"It is not. I have not uttered a single word, my sister." Hades replied.

"I can hear your thoughts, have you forgotten?" Piper sat and looked at her beloved before turning her head to Hades.

"Our minds are linked together, sister. Do not forget, your thoughts and my thoughts can slip inside each other's heads whenever we think too deep and hard." Piper pointed her temple as she look straight unto her sister's eyes.

"I...I am lost for words, sister. Out of every cardinal number, it is the very first time I have lost words towards my own thoughts." Hades admitted. She exhaled heavily, the burden and expectations weighing on her shoulders.

"You are great, sister. You are brilliant out of all Athena's offsprings. I believe you can do it. You have my utmost trust in your brain. You will soon find the words for your thoughts." Piper assured the younger. Out of all Athena's offsprings, they are the closest despite the fact that they only see each other not more than how many fingers one have in two hands.

"I am still at awe. What is the relation of all of this to my prophecy? Is Reidle somehow connected to what is happening?" Hades asked, genuinely curious about it. Her forehead is forming creases as she think deeper.

"As far as my wit goes, the prophecy didn't say anything about Artemis' daughter aside from being your aide. She is to help and I, too. So do not be bothered anymore. Your prophecy is utterly far from hers. She had finished the last one, and will soon be recognized as one of the Elites of Olympus so are you." Piper added to calm her sister's nerves.

She believes that their youngest sister can do it. Of course she can do it, none can tell her otherwise. Not a single one can defeat Athena's offsprings when it comes to their intuition and instincts along their wit and mind.

"It is on my utmost self to pay gratitude to your advices, dear sister." Hades spoke with so much honor and respect for her older sister.

"Nonesense, I am here to serve. I shall do whatever is needed to help and be of use in this mission. Both of us along these ladies will work hard to finish the task, to do the prophecy and finally mark it done. So you would be free, we would all be free. It is in your prophecy to finally end it, my sister. So..." Hades nodded at her sister's statement.

"...we shall end it."
