Chapter 51: Rivalries
"I still cannot understand how you can do all these things,"
"Oh, you will very soon, but for now, you soon remain focused on what brought you here, which is to get the inheritance of that madman," said Adams, taking his seat back.
"So you are also here for the same reason as we were," said Garrick as he looked at Melina.
Melina scoffed and looked at Adams as if confirming something to which he nodded, "I was here for that but things changed, so I am here to watch how things will play out and see if someone is right about something or wrong about it, either way, I am going to benefit" she said not wanting to disclose what Adams told her even after she got a confirmation from him to do so.
"What might that be that changed your mind?" Aurora asked her knowing Melina was someone who would not give up the chance to gain more power.
Melina simply chuckled but did not say anything; instead, she looked deeply into the eyes of Aurora mockingly and hoped what Adams said about the inheritance to be true so that Aurora may be one of the unfortunate souls in the crossfire.
"Don't say it if you don't want to; I will figure it out eventually," said Aurora, who knew Melina was not going to say anything to her.
Melina, still with her smile, scoffed, "I will be waiting; I hope it is not too late," she said.
"Enough, you can leave now, especially you, Garrick; I know you have unfinished business to attend to, so why don't you carry on with it?" Adams said getting tired of their bickering.
Garrick, understanding the hidden meaning behind what Adams said, thanked him and grabbed his sister, and together they left the Sect Hall.
The reason why Lilith even knew about Mabel knowing things is because nothing ever fazed her.
Anytime they walk together, normal things that should surprise her would not, she would just look at it as if she was expecting something like that to happen and Lilith decided to ask nothing knowing that Mabel wanted to use that opportunity to brag about her powers which made Lilith jealous and wanted to get her powerup very badly but she knew she has to be patient as Adams said it was not the right time yet.
Mabel scoffed when Lilith abruptly asked her, knowing she was still bitter about what she said recently, "Yeah, yeah, you don't have to be bitter about it.
You see, I can see everything and everyone's destiny easily and can even shape it in ways no one can but not to people related or are close to that bastard," Mabel said, pointing at Adams, who had simply gone back to enjoying the grapes fed by Lilith.
Mabel's words hung in the air, carrying a weight of mystery that only added to the intrigue surrounding Adams. Lilith's eyes narrowed slightly, her curiosity piqued by Mabel's admission. It was rare for anyone to speak so candidly about their limitations, especially someone as powerful as Mabel.
"So you're saying you can't read his future?" Lilith asked, her voice a mix of disbelief and intrigue.
Mabel shrugged, a sly smile playing on her lips. "Not just his future, but the futures of anyone closely tied to him. It's as if his presence alone creates ripples that distort the threads of fate," she explained, her gaze fixed on Adams.
"You should not dwell too much on the matter, even I don't know my future"
