James asked. Thea shook her head slightly and said, “The avatars exist to help me elude capture. That way, even if I die, only my physical body would be gone. My soul will continue to exist inside my avatars. Meanwhile, I have remained hidden in this desolate part of the world for a very long time now. However, I know about almost everything in the outside world.” Hearing this, James furrowed his eyebrows.

I joked, trying to lighten the mood. Isa didn’t laugh. She just pressed her lips together and waited. I exhaled slowly, feeling my mind push itself through exhaustion. “This is who I am now,” I said, careful not to make promises. “Certain things have made me this person. It doesn't mean that other things can't make me a different person.” I could see Isa wanted more. She hesitated, her lips slightly parted, eyes searching mine. Her body leaned into me, a silent invitation, yet she waited, watching my lips as if willing them to move.

“I will write what comes next. I will not let you be my punctuation.” The girl blinked, the first flicker of uncertainty surfacing in her expression. “But you don’t even know what you want to write,” she said. “You’ve been so many versions of yourself. The avenger. The guardian. The flame. What’s left of you that isn’t someone else’s sentence?” Elthara smiled—not cruelly, but like someone finally seeing the last word in a long-forgotten prayer.

This was calculation. “It’s… categorizing me,” I whispered, horror creeping into my voice. “Like I’m not a person… like I’m data.” Nathan’s expression darkened instantly, his aura flaring faintly as tension coiled through him. “That’s not possible. The system doesn’t think. It reacts.”

“Only to a point.” “Right now you’re in Matthew’s house, with Matthew. And he has just set his eyes on a stunning woman he wishes to make love to.” “I thought you didn’t make love.” I said in astonishment. “Mathis doesn’t. He’s the ever-serious magistrate.” “How do you keep all these personas apart?” “They’re all parts of me. It’s just who I get to be where.” “You’re playacting?” “Sometimes. But not right now. Not with you.”

"Okay, I am Thanatos and poker face is Isekai in case of another time. "hmmm, what a name your other personality have, the second exam officially starts now," Emma said as she smiled at the group.

Thalia POV My eyes widened and I looked at Aiden. He could tell I was shaken. He pulls me in for a hug and looks me in my eyes, “He isn’t coming anywhere near you.” He said decidedly. I nodded, but words were caught in my throat. Canary and Sin ran up to me. “Thalia, it’s time for Kabar. You got this girlie.” Canary said. Hearing my codename again made me react.

"I gave you a name! I gave you a place! And you repay me by running straight into a nest of Vipers?" "I'm not me!" I screamed, the words slipping out before I could stop them. My heart stopped. I had almost said it. I had almost told him I was Arthur. I swallowed hard, my eyes stinging. "I'm a person, Andreas.

"And my soul is yours, my sunflower." It does not matter to me how the king of beasts and I, his queen commenced our journey or the passage of fire and ice we burnt and froze through for one another.
