Chapter 402: Chapter 356 Vinacana

Beneath the dimly lit fire, Mira saw a woman with soft, golden hair, a straight and gleaming nose like polished marble, a slender figure slightly taller than the princess, also holding a longsword in her hand.

At the same time, the woman also noticed something unusual behind her and asked subconsciously,

"Selena, why aren’t you moving?"

Mira shuddered.

Selena?

Who was that?

With heavy confusion flooding her mind, before Mira could react, the golden-haired woman turned around with a torch in hand, her golden eyes gazing over.

Mira was momentarily dazed.

Those eyes... they were divinely captivating.

She had never seen such eyes before, yet the sensation of their gaze felt unexpectedly familiar.

It was as if God... was watching her through this woman...

When the golden-haired woman saw Mira, a trace of astonishment flashed through her eyes, and then it quickly dropped.

"Who are you?"

the golden-haired woman slowly asked.

Mira stood rooted to the spot, wanting to ask who this woman was herself.

Thus, Mira didn’t speak. She felt the golden-haired woman’s gaze on her, the girl thought a moment, not wanting to appear timid as if she were at fault.

Then, Mira straightened her neck and met the gaze of the golden-haired woman in front of her.

These strangers, having never met before, fell silent, the atmosphere growing heavy with each passing second.

Eventually, Mira couldn’t contain her impatience and said quietly,

"My name is Mira. Why are you here, who are you?"

The golden-haired woman focused on Mira, then a voice came from her lips,

"Vina Kana."

Vina Kana?

Mira had never heard such a name; it sounded like something that had never existed before.

After learning the woman’s name, Mira felt less uneasy. Vina Kana seemed to bear no ill will and perhaps knew what was happening.

For some reason, Vina Kana’s gaze gave her a peculiar sense of reassurance.

"Vina Kana... why are you here, do you know what’s happening?"

After saying this, Mira, worried it wasn’t clear, added,

"I wasn’t originally following you, but someone else."

As she finished speaking, the enigmatic Vina Kana pondered for a moment and said,

"Do you not know? This Bone Church is a place of temporal distortion."

Temporal distortion?

Mira was stunned; the Bone Church had been discovered not long ago—how could she have known.

"What does that mean?"

Mira asked, puzzled.

Vina Kana further explained,

"Literally, here space and time are jumbled, where you can encounter people from the past, and people from the future, should they come to this place."

Her voice was serene, a calmness different from Princess Anos’s decorous serenity permeating her gentle formality, whereas Vina Kana’s was sheer tranquility.

Mira felt that this woman’s emotions were deeply concealed, revealed only before those closest to her.

"So... where do you come from?" Mira asked.

Vina Kana countered with,

"What is the current date by the Imperial Calendar?"

Mira recalled and replied,

"It seems to be the Rebirth Calendar."

Vina Kana stated,

"Then, I am from the future."

Mira looked at the woman in front of her in astonishment, excitement slowly welling up in her eyes,

"From the future... from the future... Elena was right! Her father really did meet people from the future!"

For such a marvel from the heavens, this was incredibly novel.

Unintentional remarks spark intentional thoughts.

Vina Kana looked at Mira and asked,

"Whom did he meet?"

Mira scratched her head, unsure why Vina Kana would ask that but she answered honestly,

"A woman who claimed to be serving a great suffering."

Suddenly, Vina Kana clenched her silver sword tightly, her gaze sharpening.

Mira, startled, quickly asked,

"What’s wrong? What’s wrong?"

Vina Kana slowly released her grip and said solemnly,

"You don’t know what really happened in the future."

Mira looked confused, and after a moment, she honestly nodded.

Indeed, the girl really had no idea.

Such innocent behavior made Vina Kana glance sideways but she soon averted her gaze.

"Can you tell me?" Mira asked.

"I can only say a little," Vina Kana responded, then added,

"In you, I see the shadow of God."

Mira, upon hearing this, puffed her chest out proudly.

Of course, she was from Heaven.

Vina Kana spoke unhurriedly,

"In the future, I met the Lord, and He chose me, allowing me to return to the mortal world, where people regard me as a living saint.

The reason I returned was because the Lord entrusted me with a mission, and I am willing to fulfill it.

However, just like stories in the Scriptures, not everything will go smoothly.

The Lord divided His power, turning it into seven revered names, scattering them across the world, just to rebuild everything from the beginning to the end."

Finally, Vina Kana briefly said,

"Now, I am in pursuit of the fragments of the Ancient Scroll of Destiny, and that woman came here for the same reason."

After listening, Mira asked,

"The Ancient Scroll of Destiny? What is that?"

Vina Kana pondered for a moment and asked,

"Since you are from the Second Age of Rebirth, have you heard the famous Prophecy about the Heavenly Kingdom?"

Mira scratched her head,

"What prophecy?"

Vina Kana succinctly said,

"Kagawus’s."

At that moment, the girl understood; she had certainly heard it—it was in the Book of Thousand-Year-Old Prophets about Solamus.

"’I saw, God established the Law in the Heavenly Kingdom, an Ancient Scroll named Destiny unfolded, all creatures between heaven and earth, along with the Golden Age created by the Gods, all beings with souls, to be defined within the Ancient Scroll, Gods losing the vitality to govern the mortal world, the Father on the throne to seal an eternal covenant with the Gods.’"

Mira fluently recited the entire Scripture, which, although rare, was not surprising for literate True Believers to memorize the entire Scriptures.

"The Ancient Scroll of Destiny you mentioned... is it the one from this prophecy?"
