Wrinkles had formed on her forehead and the colour of her eyes had officially changed to a bluish silver, her lips were trembling and she seemed to be trying hard not to cry.

Nemesis, who had come to be known as the Goddess of War, had such an expression that even James, who was supposed to be her closest friend, her love, was deeply moved.

James shook his head and said, "I love you," then turned and started to run.

He didn\'t know what dangers awaited him at the top of the mountain, he had no contact with Nyx, no one in Olympus could watch him, the entire floor was locked, and James was truly on his own.

He was ascending through the Ice Mountain, battling glacial monsters born of dark magic and beginning to realise that he was no longer alone.

He knew that once he entered the tower and found a purpose on the first floor, he would meet many people, including Nyx, but he didn\'t know if he could commit to anyone with certainty.

The presence of Nemesis, on the other hand, had managed to bind him to one place instantly. James had decided that his life was no longer his alone. This made him extra careful.

Nemesis\' concern was the very thing that would make James more careful.

James felt that with each step he took he was getting closer to something he recognised.

He was climbing the mountain fast, not as fast as Nemesis, so it would take him two or three hours to reach the top of the mountain. Not as fast as Nemesis, but still incredibly fast for someone who had only made it to the tenth floor.

His stamina was not bad, his strength was good and his energy was high.

With each step, he continued to ascend the hill, strangely, no monsters appeared in front of him, only the cold that penetrated him with each step he took began to increase exponentially.

"What\'s going on?" James thought he had almost reached the top but he hadn\'t expected such cold, he was being affected by the cold even though he was constantly working his aura around him, indeed it was possible to say that his body ached enormously.

Yet the cold didn\'t seem to be trying to kill him, it seemed to embrace him somehow, it was a strange feeling, he felt like he was freezing but felt no pain.

"Welcome."

A sudden voice came from his left side and James stopped abruptly and grabbed Clarent tightly, carefully putting his foot on the ground and taking his guard down.

When he looked carefully in the direction of the voice, he saw that the plants were covered with hoarfrost, there shouldn\'t have been hoarfrost in such cold weather, because this cold was heavy enough to turn the plants directly into ice.

"WHO ARE YOU!?" James suddenly shouted, and then a woman emerged from where the voice had come from, out of the green plants that were covered with hoar frost and hanging overhead.

James was surprised when he saw her face, she looked strangely like the aunt his mum had shown him in a photograph a long time ago.

"It\'s been a long time James, I don\'t think I\'ve seen you since you were a baby, come and talk to me"\' the woman suddenly said, and James, hearing this, let his guard down and then set off to climb, just at that moment the woman\'s voice was heard again:

"Okay! You need to listen!"

"Nuh-uh..." James said and then turned to start up the road, but the woman suddenly appeared in front of him and grabbed him. Even though James was shocked by her speed, he still didn\'t hesitate to shake Clarent.

After the woman avoided James\' blow, she shouted again:

"I\'M YOUR AUNTIE, ISN\'T YOUR MUM\'S NAME LEONA BLACK?"

James suddenly heard his mother\'s name and then stopped dead in his tracks, his Mind Palace ability made it impossible for others to read his mind and he had never told anyone his mother\'s or father\'s name before, not even Nyx.

And how did this woman know about it?

"Aunty Emily?" James suddenly said, he only knew her as well as his mum had told him and that made it all the more strange.

"Yes it\'s me, you don\'t know me very well but I know you, I know why you went into the tower and I know what you\'re trying to do now, we need to talk. Before you go and face that piece of crap on the top of the mountain." the woman called Emily replied.

"I\'d love to but I can\'t, I\'m not going to stand here with the whole of the 5th floor looking over my shoulder, even if the barrier holds, one false move and I\'d be endangering everyone\'s lives," said James, thinking he had to move.

"The Tear of the Goddess is not an item that will last so little, James, please, I just need a few minutes of your time, I will tell you about our family history," Emily said and James nodded with great curiosity.

Seeing James\'s approval, Emily took a deep breath and then started walking towards where she came from, James followed her and after a short time, she came to a cave-like place.

The inside of the cave looked strangely modern, James was about to ask what was going on when Emily started to speak:

"It\'s all about your destiny, James, the destiny of our bloodline. Do you know who we are? Do you know who you are?"

Hearing these questions, James shook his head as if he didn\'t know, and seeing this, Emily said, "I see...My sister didn\'t tell you anything, but you still managed to get into the tower, so the prophecy must have started to come true."

James didn\'t seem to understand what was going on, he shook his head strangely and then said, "I don\'t understand what you\'re trying to say, my name is James Arthur Black, I\'m human, what prophecy, what destiny?"

He paused for a few seconds after what he had said and then clearly saw the expression on Emily\'s face, she had a sad and resentful expression, James could not know that it was not because she was disappointed or anything like that, but because she realised the path James had taken without knowing anything.

"I\'m a human....right? That\'s what it says on my profile..." James blurted out, not even knowing what to say. He just thought that seeing a literal soul of her aunty or perhaps the real body of her made him think that he was just like her.
