Snow frowned as he laid eyes on Rowana’s wounds. Black and green glimmer billowed out of his body and he put Rowana in an illusion.
She found herself waking up on a soft bed with Snow seated at the bedside, watching her with care.
She blinked, looking at her body. There was no wound on her skin. Just then, waves of glimmer scattered and Rowana realized she was on the ground in Snow’s arms but her wounds were completely healed.
Godfrey looked at their home. "It seems we’re all homeless."
"We could stay at my place." Rowana said as she got to her feet with Snow’s help.
"Where?" Isaac tucked his hands into the pockets of his hoodie.

"Welcome to my modest apartment." Rowana beamed as she opened the door and the guys walked in. It was small, a sitting room, kitchen and a bedroom.
"It’s a cozy place." Isaac smiled as he brought down his hood and looked around.
Rowana switched on the light. "I should have some snacks. I’ll be right back."
As she left, all three of them sat on the sofas. Snow exhaled heavily, then turned to Isaac. "Mind telling us about that long story?"
"Oh, um, I got possessed by a spider god that was killed by Adam."
"Adam? The first summoner?" Godfrey raised an eyebrow.
"The one and only. He’s alive, he’s out there and he’s raining havoc on other races rather indiscriminately. Neila came for vengeance, tried to consume my soul space but it backfired and we’re in some kind of strange summoner and summon relationship. We’re still working things out but I did some things that couldn’t be fixed so your dad and Captain Arian told me to come find you."
Isaac said, staring at Godfrey.
"I had no idea you would be looking for a place to sleep." He mumbled.
Snow grimaced. "That’s a harsh experience."
"It was at first but..." Isaac unleashed a Neila from a portal. She wore a white flare skirt seemingly made from silk thread and mana. She also wore a sleeveless top from the same material.
It matched her pure white hair. The sight of Neila stunned Godfrey and Snow.
When they heard a spider, a woman like Neila was the least expectation they had in mind.
Godfrey scoffed, eyeing Isaac. "I must have been way off when I mentioned Lucy."
Snow agreed.
Neila stared at them coldly, her crimson eyes gleaming dangerously. But she flinched a bit when she sensed the subtle aura emanating from Godfrey and there was also something feral about Snow.
"Done showing me off?" She hissed at Isaac who flinched.
He swiftly retrieved her. "That’s a first, she’s always eager to attack and steal the memories of people. She was quite subdued around you guys."
"Well she’s a god. She’s not a dumb beast. She knows we’re your friends." Snow replied as he leaned against the sofa’s backrest.
"She’s weakened now. Just a Paragon for now." Isaac scratched the back of his head.
"You have to strengthen her. You have a head start in the next phase of our world, don’t throw it away. Since you guys are joined now, she has to protect you. Your death means hers so there’s nothing to be scared about." He added.
Isaac chuckled. "She liked the first part but did not like what you said after." As he spoke, Rowana returned with snacks and canned drinks.
All of them grabbed one. Snow opened a can and looked at Godfrey. "How’s Isolde?"
Isaac was shocked at that question. It could only mean one thing. Isolde was alive!
His wide eyes locked on Godfrey, waiting for his reaction.
"She’s alive?!"
Godfrey responded with a nod. He took huge gulps from his canned drink. Who knew what was on Isolde’s mind?
To be honest, he didn’t feel so good. He was usually alright but seeing Snow with Rowana and then Neila’s reveal made him miss his Isolde.
