The Throne Of Valor
Future: Aerin's Destiny

🍂🍂🍂

Future tense.

City of Albama, United States.

The sun was getting higher, and the clouds were blowing gently painting the blue sky.

Steph, Gwen, and Jhon have just finished discussing their investigation.

Exactly the investigation will begin at the height of this year's winter, which will arrive in 4 weeks, coinciding with a year of accidents that befell Steph and Gwen.

“Steph, Gwen, I'll be home first. There's something I need to find out. See you at the next meeting!” Jhon waved his hand at Steph and Gwen and started driving.

Gwen pushes Steph's wheelchair into her living room.

There, Gwen observes the condition of Steph's legs which are completely paralyzed.

“Gwen, what about your memory? Can you remember anything before you woke up in the hospital?” steph asked when they had just arrived in her living room.

“Hm, none of them. Oh yeah, why did you fool me in the first place by telling me that your name is Edward?” Gwen sits next to Steph, on the couch.

“Ah does not exist, I will explain. Gwen, in your role in the past .. are you really going to marry that prince named William?”

“There are no more options. It was the absolute condition of King Arthur. Why are you asking me about my wedding? Didn't you yourself marry that elf woman named Aerin?” Gwen's gaze began to emit a hint of jealousy, while crossing her arms.

“Same as you, it is an absolute requirement. Despite that ak-”

“Hopefully happy. Excuse me first, Steph,” cut Gwen while exuding a smile, then start walking out of Steph's house with a little disappointment.

*hap

Steph held onto Gwen's arm that was about to walk out.

“Me and Edward are different. I realized Edward was starting to love Queen Aerin, but not me...”

“Steph ..” Gwen slowly turned around and looked at Steph's sad eyes.

Gwen slowly brought her face closer to the face of Steph holding her arm.

*cups

A brief kiss from Gwen landed on Steph's bowed cheek.

“Thank you. See you tomorrow, Steph.”

Gwen slowly walked out with a flowery heart.

Although Steph's words are still unclear to her, they hint that Steph's heart and Edward's heart are different even though they are one.

Reincarnation does not mean that you are identical with the characters of the past, but perfecting the shortcomings of the future.

 🍂🍂🍂

In the afternoon as usual, Steph always pushed her wheelchair for a walk not far from her home.

When passing in front of the coffee shop, Steph remembered that she used to go there often to enjoy her favorite latte.

But because of her condition as it is now, since the accident Steph never again went to the tavern.

Because of her favorite latte yearning, Steph immediately pushed her wheelchair to stop by.

“For a long time not returning to this place,” Inner Steph while pushing her wheelchair inside.

*bruck 

Steph accidentally bumped into a girl mopping the floor, in front of the entrance.

Her slippery floor made the girl slowly slip right in front of Steph's eyes.

*hap

Quickly, Steph caught the girl's waist while sitting on her wheelchair.

Now the eyes of the two of them looked at each other unintentionally.

“Edward? Ah no, I mean Sir. Forgive me.” The girl immediately stood up from Steph's arms and lowered her body.

“Ah no, the wrong one is me so I'm the one who should apologize.”

“Anna! Windshield is still dirty, quickly clean!” orders a woman dressed as the manager, who is Steph's chatting friend at the tavern.

“Good, manager.” Slowly the girl ran around nervously and started cleaning the shop glass.

“Oh hello Steph! Long time no see!” Nichole came to welcome Steph.

There they began to talk about Steph's health condition which is currently improving, but both legs are paralyzed.

After an hour of talking with Nichole, Steph bailed back to her house.

Upon arriving home, Steph recalled that the girl who had bumped into him earlier called him Edward.

“What's with him? Why did he call me Edward? I need to be careful, maybe he's Edmud. But isn't Edmud a man?” muttered Steph upon arrival at her house while reaching into her pants pocket.

*tock

“Master, manager Nichole asked me to deliver your phone.”

Hearing that from her closed door, Steph rushed to open the door.

Steph opened the door excitedly, so that the girl leaning on the door immediately fell towards Steph who was sitting on her wheelchair.

*hap

Again the girl was in Steph's warm embrace.

Their eyes stared at each other, but Steph felt that she was holding something round and springy.

The girl's cheeks immediately flushed red as she felt Steph's hands clutching a precious item in her chest.

“Kya!!! Basic pervert!!”

*Plac

A slap from the girl landed on Steph's left cheek.

“Anu ... it was by accident.”

The girl immediately frowned while pointing Steph's phone.

After seeing Steph take the phone from her hand, the girl immediately turned her body around.

“Wait!”

*hap

Steph held the girl's arm before she went any further.

“I'll test if this girl has a relationship with me in the past,” Inner Steph.

“Arthemis, Penny, Lucius,” call Steph at random while holding the girl's arm.

“Who else yes,” Inner Steph trying to think.

“Sophia ... Aerin?”

When it came to Aerin's name, the girl immediately turned her body and looked at Steph with a shocked look.

“Aerin? How do you know that name?”

“I'll explain later. But I want to make sure ... have you ever dreamed of becoming a Queen named Aerin Parmel of the Archangle Kingdom?”

“Yes! I dream of becoming a Queen of the Archangle Kingdom. And I married a blue-eyed man, who was similar to the one in your eyes.”

“You mean Prince Edward?!”

“Ya!”

“Do you often ask him for rations?!”

“Em .. she was great when acting in bed.” The girl's cheeks turned red while looking the other way.

“Come back tomorrow day here after you work. I'll explain everything. Ah almost forgot, my name is Steph Middleton, just call Steph. And your name?”

“Anna, Anna Poems.

Em... Steph, until when are you going to hold my hand? I have to work now.”

Steph slowly pulls Anna's face closer to hers, in order to test if she really is Aerin.

*cups

Steph kissed Anna's lips, and felt the same tenderness that Aerin had.

“This ... it really is Aerin!” steph kisses Anna's lips.

“Emph,” muttered Anna then tried to let go of Steph's kiss.

“Crazy reliability! I'm not coming here! Goodbye!” Anna gently hit Steph's chest with both hands accompanied by completely flushed cheeks, and immediately ran over.

“I am Edward!” steph shouted as she saw Anna running away from her.

Hearing Edward's words, Anna immediately turned to Steph.

“What ... what do you mean .. Ed ... Edward?!”

“Yes, my beautiful, cute, and funny wife!” steph replied with the secret code to provoke Aerin's reaction which usually blushed immediately, even convulsing.

“Kya!!! It's impossible!!” anna shouted with excitement. “But! I want rations now!”
