Villainous Husband, the One You’re Obsessed With Is Over There - Chapter 180

Chapter 90.2

All that was visible was a group of faint, hazy lights, but I instinctively knew it was Providence. As Providence was a concept and not a person, naturally, it had no tangible form.

I talked to it.

It was a strange experience. When I spoke to Providence with my own mouth, Providence also borrowed my mouth to express its intentions.

I said to Providence. I wanted to turn back time to before all these dreadful events happened.

Providence spoke through my mouth.

For that, a price is required.

I asked Providence. What price must I pay?

Providence spoke through my mouth.

That couldn’t be known in advance. Nevertheless, are you determined to make your wish come true?

Ah, Providence didn’t even need to ask me. It was more than steadfast. If I could bring back Eden, who was unfairly wronged…

I was more heartbroken that Eden lost his life than I was that I went through something so horrible. He died in vain, trying to protect a woman he didn’t even love. Therefore, I promised myself that when I went back, I wouldn’t repeat the same mistake and would protect him.

I nodded, willing to pay any price to Providence.

Upon that, Providence granted my wish.

I went back in time safely. I was where I was when I returned, and I could feel the God of Tunia’s disapproval echoing in my mind. Tunia was deeply disappointed in me. I was scolded and asked if I understood the meaning of making a deal with Providence.

But strangely, at that moment, I knew.

Tunia had also made a deal with Providence.

A sense of rebellion arose in me. I protested, asking how such a cruel fate could be imposed upon me. I screamed that I would no longer worship Tunia, and I shouted loudly that I wouldn’t fulfill my role as a saint.

And just like that, in doing so, I lost my status as a saint.

The story has been too long. Yes…

The essence was this.

The only weapon to stand against the successor of Actilla was the Saintess of Tunia, but I was no longer the Saintess of Tunia. Therefore, the meeting between the Emperor and me was meaningless, and I had no ability to kill him.

It was a long story that finally reached a conclusion.

I held my breath for a while and looked at Seraphina. She was crying.

Hoping it wasn’t true, I cautiously asked.

“Seraphina… the ‘price’ that Providence took from you…”

Seraphina forced a smile, lifting only the corners of her lips, and replied.

“The annihilation of the soul of a loved one.”

‘…Oh, my goodness.’

I crouched down and ruffled my hair.

That was the reason Seraphina apologized to me. It was because her presence in this world triggered the butterfly effect she caused. In exchange for her return, Eden’s soul was destroyed, and in its place, Cha Soo-hyun took its place. Perhaps my possession of Angelica had a similar mechanism.

Still, I wasn’t someone precious enough for Seraphina to pay for. Why did Angelica’s soul disappear, and I took her place?

In response to my question, she opened her mouth.

“A new saintess of Tunia was also needed.”

I, who had been tearing at my hair, suddenly lifted my head and stared at her.

“…What did you say?”

I asked with an incredulous expression painted on my face.

“I’m the Saintess of Tunia? Right now?”

I snorted in disbelief as Seraphina nodded cautiously.

“What are you talking about? ‘Angelica,’ both before and now, has nothing to do with the Temple of Tunia. I’m not even a follower of the God of Tunia. Seraphina, you’re talking nonsense.”

However, her blue eyes were serious.

“No, Angelica. Think about it carefully. Whose sphere of influence was it that you began to gain near-revelation certainty?”

The moment I heard those words, it felt like my heart stopped. Nevertheless, Seraphina continued cruelly.

“Where was your strongest connection to that revelation…”

“No.”

“…I’m truly sorry, Angelica. But it’s you.”

Seraphina’s lips twitched.

“The God of Tunia has chosen you. Only Tunia knows the exact reason, but…”

As the wound on my ankle throbbed, I stared blankly into space.

‘If so, that meant…’

“Now, it’s not me but you who can kill the successor of Actilla.”
