Filvisar, he is Claude's long lost master who we presume dead after completing his task as someone who awakened the blessing of ten heroes. An old elf with a long grey white hair with wrinkles all over his face. Just what you would expect from someone who is over a hundred year old. Here I was, thinking that the stereotype of elf having a long life would be true, but no. People in this world tends to die at much younger age and elf, having much more vitality compare to other races, can live up to 80 years old in this world, and by standard, Filvisar here is really old as he lives pass hundred

"So, what actually happened back then?" [Diana]

"As you guy know, I am blessed with the same blessings with these ten children here. After we awaken our blessings, we were met with a group of people from the church call Achalasia Externa" [Filvisar]

"Same here" [Ash]

"And, did you know who's the leader?" [Filvisar]

"I'm afraid not" [Ash]

"It was Agnes back then, and it's still her right now" [Ash]

"!" [Other]

"Agnes! As in that Agnes!?" [Ash]

"The one you meet back at Malsia?" [Rean]

"Yeah, but how?" [Ash]

So Agnes here is older than she looks, and somehow, I got this feeling she's way older than Filvisar is despite her young look

"I don't know. She's still a mystery even up till this day, but I do know one thing" [Filvisar]

"Go on" [Ash]

"Her power, it started weak and slowly rising, peak during the fallen god awakening and decline back afterwards" [Filvisar]

"So, if the same pattern happen..." [Qis]

"Motra is already strong, I can't imagine what would happen if someone stronger appear" [Khamishah]

"Damn... should have killed her back then" [Ash]

"Ooh... but it's impossible, she's after all, an immortal" [Filvisar]

"!" [Other]

What! Agnes, she's immortal! 

"How... How did you know about that?" [Khamishah]

"During our final battle with the fallen god, all ten of us were secluded from the rest of the world by a powerful black miasma barrier erected by the fallen god. The ten of us fight together and manage to seal the fallen god back. Agnes fought against us back then, and even after multiple attempts of ending her life, she's mysteriously resurrected" [Filvisar]

"Resurrected? Not necromancy or becoming something similar to the fallen god minion?" [Elise]

"It was resurrection. It's like the realm of death reject her, no it's like the realm of life prevent her from entering the realm of death" [Filvisar]

Again, the word death, resurrection, realm of life and death came out during our conversation. So, Agnes here is immortal, does that mean, one of the reasons I was given the blessings of God of Death is to...

"Ash, does that mean..." [Rumia]

"I thought of the same thing. The power of God of Death blessing within me, should be use to finish her off" [Ash]

Still, how did she obtain immortality? I don't think Goddess Achalasia will give her power to Agnes, and neither do the God of Death. Logically, fallen god will be the answer, but

"Just who is this fallen god?" [Ash]

"I'm sorry..." [Filvisar]

"You don't know?" [Farhah]

"I know, but... My lips and memories were sealed when the fallen god was sealed. Again, by Agnes" [Filvisar]

"She can do that as well!" [Ash]

"What about any record you left behind?" [Rumia]

"Unfortunately, it was mysteriously destroyed as well. One of the reason why I traveled the world afterward is to retrieve back my memories, as well as gathering as much information as I could. That's when I meet young Rumia back then. All of my traveling, all of it, so that..." [Filvisar]

"So that this ten kids can survive?" [Calypso]

"Exactly. I don't want them to meet the same demise as my friends back then, even more so now when I know Claude have been taking care of them..." [Filvisar]

"Master..." [Claude]

I got a lot less information than I thought I would. Given that Filvisar here is one of the ten heroes, I thought he could give every single vital information but to think that this happened. It's unexpected. Does that means the scarce of written and oral information is also due to Agnes? More importantly

(If I wanted to know more about fallen god, than I have to know more about Agnes first. She's the key to all of this, and...) [Ash]

I look at Mahsuri. She seems calm and yet agitated as well, I wonder...

"Mahsuri, you don't need to answer if you don't want to, but... Could it be, just like how Filvisar here have his lips sealed and most of his memories wiped cleaned, you also experience the same?" [Ash]

"..." [Mahsuri]

"I will take that as a yes" [Ash]

Though I believe there is more to it behind the silence of her. Something important, but I wonder what

"I, I have a question" [Mile]

"Yes?" [Filvisar]

"Do they, really need to fight the fallen god? Why sent them towards demise..." [Mile]

"Mile..." [Elise]

"That's, actually true... Can't they just..." [Muse]

"Muse..." [Rean]

"Unfortunately, they have to. If they don't act, all of us would die. Plus..." [Filvisar]

"Plus?" [Mira]

"Those who awaken this blessing, will inevitably drawn towards the battle with the fallen god, whether they like it or not" [Filvisar]

"Such cruel fate!" [Kadeus]

Kadeus, he seems furious about it. I can actually understand that, I mean, why them? I know it's too late to question it, but even if I had accepted the fact that they're all the ten heroes, I still can't imagine myself to send them fighting the fallen god, but at the same time, I know it's inevitable. It's a strange heavy feeling. At one hand, you know you have to accept this feeling, but on the other hand, you don't want to. You wish the peaceful life will continue forever

"Still, you guys are off to a good start" [Filvisar]

"!?" [Other]

"Unlike you, we don't have anyone with God of Death blessing, not to mention, we don't receive any blessings from the seven holy beast" [Filvisar]

"I see. If Ash here can explore more of his blessing from both Goddess Achalasia and God of Death, and if they manage to receive all seven holy beast power, they can actually survive!" [Diana]

"That's what I believe, not to mention, look at the support they received. All of you, you guys are truly blessed with wonderful people" [Filvisar]

"True, it's rather obvious" [Seraph]

"And how about you?" [Jacks]

"Don't you think you should tell us about yourself?" [Ash]
