"I... only saw a fragment of it."
Skuld said seriously, "Big brother, you're different from everyone else. Both your past and future are missing a fragment... It isn't the kind hidden by mist. A fragment is truly missing, so even if I saw your future, it might not come to pass."
A fragment was missing?
Lin Qiye had originally thought that when Urd spoke of "a fragment of the past being concealed," it was simply because of the Psychiatric Hospital of the Gods. But now, it seemed there was another reason?
What was so special about him that both his past and future were missing a fragment? Even the Three Goddesses couldn't see it?
Lin Qiye pondered for a long time without finding an answer. He decided to put the matter aside for now and continued asking, "It's alright. You can tell me about the fragment you saw."
"Big brother... do you really want to hear it?"
"Can't I?"
"You can, but..." Skuld seemed to recall something, her lips pressing together slightly. "It's just... not very good..."
"How is it not good?"
"I saw you crying."
"Crying?"
"Mhm. You were crying in a very large, beautiful palace. There were lots of red decorations in the palace, and lots of seats too, but no one was sitting in them... You stood at the palace entrance, looking up at the sky, crying so sadly. It seemed like you cried until you went blind..."
After hearing Skuld's description, Lin Qiye sank into deep bewilderment.
He was in a red palace, crying himself blind?
This...
Lin Qiye had rarely cried in his life. The time he remembered crying the hardest in recent years was when Zhao Kongcheng died in his arms... What could possibly happen in the future to make him cry so heartbrokenly?
