As Basil felt his consciousness was sucked into the ring, he lost his control over his body. The feeling was different from the one that he felt whenever he connected himself with the Fragment however, since he completely lost his control this time.

His vision turned darker in each passing second, until he eventually saw nothing but darkness. He soon regained his vision in the next moment, but what he saw wasn't the scenery of the Temporary Dimension he had been in.

"This place... It feels similar to my Mindscape."

He knew however this wasn't his Mindscape, so he wondered who the owner of the Mindscape was while looking around. Compared to his Mindscape, the place looked very plain as it was only consisted of an endless fertile land and a blue sky.

The wind was comforting, however he couldn't believe anyone would be able to stay in this kind of place for a long time. It was simply too plain; anyone would easily get bored seeing it.

"I wonder if I should turn my Mindscape into this place too. I believe it will easily drive Vagus to insanity."

Basil smirked as he thought about his Sword Soul that was still Evolving in his Mindscape would react to this place. She hadn't been awake ever since he entered the Middle Realm, so he wondered if Vagus had unintentionally destroyed herself in the process.

Although he knew such a thing would never happen, Vagus looked clumsy enough to do that, so he couldn't help himself thinking about that.

Of course, when it happened, he would curse Vagus for her stupidity instead of laughing at her stupidity. Not only would he lose his strongest weapon by then, but he would also lose a part of himself.

Basil wasn't embarrassed to say that he had gotten comfortable with Vagus' presence in his Mindscape, but he didn't mean Vagus being a part of him in a romantic way.

He was only reminded of it due to his mother, but he had almost forgotten he had established a Soul Bind with Vagus. That means, his soul and Vagus were bound, so when one of them was dead the other would also be dead.

Basil technically wouldn't die since he was the "host" in this matter, but if Vagus somehow destroyed herself before he unbound his soul with her, which was undoable, his soul would suffer greatly.

He didn't want that to happen, so he genuinely wished for Vagus to not dumbly destroy herself. His progress would be greatly hampered if that happened, and he would definitely look for her to torture her in afterlife.

"Well, it seems there is nothing here. I have been walking around searching for something, but I find none." Basil looked around with a light hum. "Whoever the owner of this Mindscape is, he is messing with me."

As soon as Basil finished saying his words, he felt someone's presence behind him. He had intentionally acted like he didn't know who this place belonged to, expecting this to happen, and when it happened, he was slightly overwhelmed.

The First Lady, the founder of Pacifer Clan was right behind him, staring at his back intently. Just a fragment of her soul was enough to overwhelm him; it made him wonder just how strong she really was.

Of course, no matter how overwhelming her presence was, Basil had no mind to be scared. He reveled in the feeling of being above someone instead.

He had been someone's lapdog and target of ridicules in his past life, so he wasn't really uncomfortable with the feeling. He knew what he could be in the future, so he had no intention to lower his head.

Since the First Lady also didn't show any ill intention towards him, he turned his body around to face her with a small friendly smile. He genuinely meant his smile in a good way, but the moment he turned around, he quickly lost his smile.

There was a lady dressed in a completely white dress standing in front of him. She had a long and pretty azure hair, an otherworldly beautiful face that was hidden behind her veil, and clear, blue eyes that were staring at him calmly.

Basil was motionless for a couple of seconds as he silently stared at the First Lady, but it wasn't because he was too overwhelmed by her beauty. There was something uncannily familiar to her, and he couldn't wrap his mind around that fact.

The First Lady was now looking at him curiously as he had been motionless for half a minute or so, but instead of explaining himself, he walked towards her. He stopped just a few centimeters in front of her, and wordlessly opened her veil.

"Vagus."

"W-What?"

The First Lady was confused at Basil's sudden act, but he wasn't having it at all. Looking at the woman, who was supposed to be the First Lady, he couldn't help feeling sceptical.

'No wonder she feels familiar. She is just an older and taller version of Vagus!'

No matter where Basil looked at her, the First Lady was Vagus. Although she looked absolutely clueless about what Basil was on about, he was sure it was just Vagus, who had finished her Evolution, messing with him.

'There is no way that happens, right?'

Of course, Basil understood that such a thing didn't happen. He could still feel Vagus' Soul in his Mindscape, and see some apparent differences the woman in front of him had from Vagus, no matter how similar they looked.

Since he had made the situation awkward between the two of them, Basil took a step back, then activated his Pacifer Seal. The First Lady widened her eyes before a light of understanding flashed in them.

"Ah, so the time has finally come. The Fated Child has finally been born." The First Lady smiled delicately. "I am your ancestor, Asia, in case you don't know me yet." She extended her hand.

Basil looked at the extended hand briefly before grasping it in his. "I am Basil Pacifer. Nice to meet you, Lady Asia." He then deactivated his Pacifer Seal.

"Oh my. Such a polite young man." Asia giggled happily, then felt Basil's entire torso. "Oh, you are not only tall but also strong—good!"

Since there was only ten centimeters of difference in height between them, Asia sizing Basil up didn't look awkward at all. Basil didn't know what to do in that kind of situation, so he just stood there rigidly like a child being dressed by his mother.

Once Asia finished sizing Basil up, she pinched Basil's cheeks and stretched them to make a funny face. That was the bottom line of Basil however, so it didn't last more than three seconds.

Basil took her hands of his face, then put it down while looking at her politely. There was something about her that made him couldn't be mad at her—she was like his long lost friend—so he didn't show any displeasure on his face

"Judging by your reaction earlier, I can tell that you have an idea about who Vagus is."

"Zepar's sword, isn't it?"

"What the sword used to contain is what I mean."

"Oh... I can't dodge this one, can I?"

Asia smiled awkwardly, but Basil kept giving her a pressuring gaze that forced her to tell what he wanted to know. She sighed in the next moment, then looked around to find somewhere to sit.

Basil tapped the ground once with his feet, and a fancy bench made of Earth appeared in the next moment. Asia seemed to be surprised at what Basil was capable of in her Mindscape, but didn't fuss about it as she sat herself.

"Excuse me, Lady Asia."

"Yes, my descendant, Basil."

"Do you have any specific reason for sitting on my lap?"

"Do you have the heart to let this old lady sit on a hard bench?"

"I can make it soft—"

"No, I am fine with your lap."

"..."

Asia had already grasped Basil's thighs with her hands, showing how adamant she was on the idea of sitting on his lap, and he couldn't help but sigh at that.

If she were just anyone, he would've slapped her to the heaven for sure. Unfortunately, not only was she his ancestor, but the familiar and comfortable feeling he felt from her made him don't want to disrespect her.

"The story dated back to 2000 years ago... I was killed by one of the fanatic followers of the Four Heroes—the betrayers. Ah, can you comfort me, my descendant, Basil? I am feeling sad."

Basil gave an exasperated sigh at Asia's request, but did what she requested nonetheless; he caressed her head tenderly. He needed to hear what had actually happened in the past from her, so he didn't want to make her upset.

"Yes, that is all."

"What is all?"

"The story. What do you expect?"

"Don't joke around with me, please, Lady Asia."

"Fufufu." Asia giggled softly. "Loosen up a little bit, my descendant. You are against your nature for being stiff and all."

"The story."

"Boo, you are no fun." Asia booed Basil like a child even though she knew Basil couldn't see it since she was facing her back on him.

"Anyway, my soul was split in two by the First Prince. Solomon got his hand on the first half, and he sealed it here, meanwhile the First Prince sealed the other half in the sword of Zepar, Vagus, which is a great place to seal souls."

"Can I assume that Vagus and Asia are the same person?"

"We are both Asia—there is no Vagus to begin with. Why do you sound so sceptical anyway?"

Asia felt something was wrong in Basil's question, so she couldn't help turning her body to the side. She was now face to face with Basil, and she immediately frowned when he noticed Basil's slightly awkward smile.

"The Asia that was previously trapped inside Vagus is now in my Mindscape. She is chatty, immature, and insufferably dumb. To think that girl is you is a little bit... Unbelievable in my opinion."

"Huuh... That stupid me." Asia sighed as she massaged her forehead then looked at Basil awkwardly. "She must have lost her mind due to the thousands of years of confinement. Please, be nice to her."

Basil nodded his head as if he had been treating the Asia he knew nicely for the whole time.

Ignoring the fact how the Asia in front of him could still stay sane after also being confined for thousands of years, he asked a question.

"Who is the Lord, and what is the connection he had with Matheus?"

"That is..."

Asia seemed to be overwhelmed by the direct question, since she couldn't immediately answer the question.
