In the heavenly realm, Goddess Isis remained in the garden after Petra and the other angels left to search for the purple-eyed child.
The child birthed by the Deity of Earth, that vessel containing that loathsome power that should have long disappeared from existence...
'Once I find that purple-eyed child, then that woman can't do anything even if she is reborn. Without her complete power, she is nothing but an ant. She cannot fight her way back to the heavens. I will make sure even if she is to be reincarnated again and again, she will forever be damned to stay as a pitiful ant in the mortal world'
Her gaze landed at the violet waterlilies in the pond.
'That purple-eyed child is the key to my plans. She has to land on my palm at all costs.'
After strolling leisurely for a while longer, Isis thought of visiting another deity to pass the time; however, she changed her mind.
Due to the time difference between the mortal world and the heavenly realm, a year for an ordinary human being would merely be days for the divine beings living in the upper realm. Her loyal Petra would probably be back in a matter of minutes. She could not miss her good news upon return.
With thoughts of her plan becoming successful, Isis hummed a lovely song but all of a sudden, she felt something, making her freeze in place with her beautiful eyes wide in disbelief. The pleasant atmosphere around her changed.
A sea of fire.
Divine beings were immortals, and they would neither dream nor fall into a daze for no reason at all.
For someone of her status to suddenly see a vision of raging flames...
Her hands tightened into the fists, the divine power around her brewing as if enraged, but her eyes looked terrified.
"No...this can't be..."
She got back to her senses and that dangerous power fluctuation surrounding her disappeared. However, the initially harmonious garden had long gone silent. The trees and wind became deathly still, and even the birds had been frightened into escaping.
Although the expression on the goddess' face remained the same, unfazed and calm, one could see from her eyes she was utterly shocked and terrified.
"That seal on her powers is broken... The Deity of Fire has awakened...?"
"I need to find her."
In panic, she closed her eyes right there and there, not even bothering to return inside the palace, and began to deduce that human reincarnation's whereabouts. She tried to search for the Deity of Fire, but the more she looked, the more her face grew frosty cold.
