Chapter 471 Shaking Grip

"You are my solace. You are the only thing that keeps me away from the thought of solely living to exact revenge."

Iliana been a vengeful person in Basil\'s past life. She had often gone for days and come home bruised and battered. Whenever he asked what happened, she had always answered him with \'some trash stood in my way.\' He didn\'t know at that time what she meant by that. She thought she had people after her which was one of his reasons to get stronger quickly.

The enemy had never been after her all along. She sought them, which led to the Church figuring out her true identity. At that point, Iliana was no longer vengeful; but karma was catching up to her. The Church\'s Executioners actively sought her, aiming to end her life without alerting anyone.

One day, they succeeded and it changed him forever.

"Was it hard for you to move on from Mother\'s death?" the Fated Child asked.

"No. It was surprisingly easy, but I couldn\'t help gnashing my teeth when I thought about the Church laying its hands on my brother," Iliana answered with a scrunched-up nose.

Basil nodded his head in understanding. He finally understood why Iliana had suddenly gotten over her revenge in the past. He blamed his old self for his denseness. He should\'ve seen how protective Iliana was with him. She had never been vengeful. Everything she did was for him. He was weak; therefore, Iliana felt the need to keep slithering snakes away from him.

Iliana became less active after his breakthrough into the Violet Core Stage. At that point, even the most prodigious Seventh Circle Mage had to bow before him if he told him to do so. Many Purple Core Stage Knights from the Empire even came to ask him to join their rank. He was already strong enough to not need Iliana\'s protection.

In this life, Iliana didn\'t have to repeat what she had done in the past. Basil was already a capable man since the first time they met. She didn\'t feel the need to assume her role as the elder sister because she saw him as an equal. She didn\'t need to hunt for the slithering snakes who had yet to see him. Thus, the soft and na?ve Iliana was born.

Although Basil preferred the mischievous and cold Iliana of the past, he loved this Iliana more than the Iliana of the past. This Iliana didn\'t force herself to mature. This Iliana matured naturally because of the situation she was thrown into. Iliana of the past suffered emotionally and she had to wait quite a long time to heal. Though, in the end, she wasn\'t fully healed.

That Iliana was sad which was why Basil didn\'t want to let this Iliana end up like that. Iliana wasn\'t the only one who regretted what she couldn\'t do—he did too.

"My brother is an outstanding man. The moment our eyes met; I could immediately tell. I was afraid to tell you I was your sister because then you would shun me, telling me you didn\'t need me. Ah, but I was making an excuse. I fell for you that day, so I didn\'t want to gross you out. It was exciting, you know? To become a lover with my sibling."

Ione cleared her throat awkwardly while glancing at Iliana. She was wondering if Iliana knew what she was talking about.

"Well, at least, I know now that I am not into an incestuous relationship. I am just into you." Iliana shrugged.

"How can you tell?" Basil asked with a faint smile.

"I still feel excited thinking about sleeping with you even after knowing you are not my biological brother. Though, I am still saddened that you are a Demigod."

Ione coughed, perplexed. "What? Being a vessel to a God\'s soul automatically makes you a Demigod?"

"Oh, you didn\'t know?"

Ione shook her head faintly at Iliana\'s quirked eyebrow. The fact that Iliana just found out about it means that it was kept a secret by the Maha Dmitras. Her mother might be a Maha Dmitra, but her mother wouldn\'t tell her anything about it. Even Iliana was allowed to know because she would be a Maha Dmitra soon.

"In the end, My Lord has to leave, doesn\'t he?" Ione said with a small sad smile. "We worried that you might leave us after receiving the Lord\'s soul before, but now we have to worry that you will leave the Mortal World and join the Gods on the Heavenly Throne."

"Why do you think I will?" Basil asked curiously.

"Because…it\'s the Heavenly Throne."

Ione frowned lightly. She couldn\'t think of more reason for Basil to go there. The Heavenly Throne was the realm where the Gods lived. Basil might be a Demigod then, but he would be a God in the future. The Gods would surely take him when he manifested Divinity.

"My home is neither here nor on the Heavenly Throne. I will create it myself and it will also be yours," Basil retorted with conviction.

Blinking her eyes once, Ione soon blushed. She got the wrong idea, but Basil didn\'t bother to correct her. Iliana quirked an eyebrow at the scene but immediately shrugged it off. It wasn\'t her first time seeing Basil make someone get the wrong idea. He preferred not explaining what he meant and she was already used to it.

Though, she was still curious about what Basil meant. He had mentioned Yang Tian Long taking his family to look for a vast land. She didn\'t know what it was for before but she could roughly grasp what Basil was going to do this time. It must be related to his goal of making his and everyone\'s home. Though, she had a feeling that it was more than that.

"Does your being a Demigod have anything to do with your meeting with Mother?" Iliana asked, attracting everyone\'s attention. "How did you meet her anyway?"

"I went back to the past," Basil answered simply, shocking them. "To be exact, I connected my soul with her soul. She was using [One with Nature] before her execution, so occupied the connection that she provided."

"How could you even…I see." Iliana realized whom she was talking to, so she dropped the matter quickly. "How was she when you met her?"

The light of curiosity in Iliana\'s eyes began to dim as she thought about the implication of her question. She was asking Basil to describe how was her mother during her last minutes. The memory of her mother being dragged by the hair remained a nightmare for her. She couldn\'t imagine how she would feel after hearing the gruesome last moments of her mother.

Despite so, she wanted to know. She wanted a reason to not spare anyone standing in their way. She wanted something that would fortify her heart as it began to waver upon seeing her enemy\'s pitiful state. As painful as it was for her to hear it, she needed to.

Basil could read what Iliana think and shook his head faintly. Iliana already had enough reason to not spare anyone who sided with the Church. She was still too soft. Even if he described how pitiful Maya was when he met her, Iliana would still spare those bastards if she remained soft. What she needed was no longer a reason but a strong heart.

As Basil described the positive side of his meeting with his mother, Iliana frowned lightly. She wanted to hear about the gruesome details of her mother\'s last moment. When she looked into Basil\'s eyes, her words were caught in her throat. It was at that moment that she realized she was relieved Basil didn\'t tell her what she wanted.

His \'are you sure?\' gaze was enough to deter her.

Seeing the dejected Iliana, Ione clapped her hand. "Well, now that the two of you already know each other and explored the village, I will introduce myself." Iliana turned to Ione and thanked her with her eyes. "My name is Ione Pacifer, I am Margaret Pacifer\'s daughter. Nice to meet you two." She ended her introduction with a smile.

"Did my grandmother adopt your mother?" Basil asked.

"Yes. Grandma Zina adopted a lot of kids because hers didn\'t survive."

Ione scolded herself after saying that but heaved a sigh of relief when Basil and Iliana didn\'t seem to be bothered by her insensitiveness. Though, she was kind of bothered by Basil\'s wondering look and his small smile of amusement.

"You are different after arriving here," Basil remarked.

"Fu-Fu-Fu. Ione is rambunctious, you know," Iliana said with a chuckle.

With a horrified look, Ione jumped in front of Iliana and covered Iliana\'s mouth. It was quite bizarre for Basil to see her being that energetic. Basil shook his head and sat down. He gazed at the sky of the Pacifer village and noted it was no different from the sky outside. Unfortunately, the atmosphere wasn\'t too good there. The calming scent the flowers had was spoiled by the vile aura the Obelisk was exuding.

His eyes turned sharp as he gazed at the Obelisk from the corner of his eyes. He could feel someone was trying to peer into the village that was protected by the Barrier that the Pacifer had cast. He wanted to immediately go there and slay the culprit but he couldn\'t. He needed time to increase his power. The current him would die after an exhausting exchange.

Ione and Iliana stopped fighting and looked at the solemn Basil. They immediately knew what he was planning to do, so they were equally worried and excited. A big change would happen soon. The Pacifer would make its name known once again.
