Perfect Avatar

"More than 1000 years ago, civilization was divided not into countries, but into different kingdoms, scattered on each continent, among them, 3 rose above the others, the kingdom of Ambrosia on our continent, the kingdom of Fenrir in the far north, and the kingdom of the elves on the continent of Kalaharis, the land of the giants. This period was called the ancient era"Eryl snapped her fingers, and a hologram of a world map appeared on the small table in front of her. "We don't have all the information, but historical accounts suggest that each of these kingdoms was struck by natural disasters after a massive incident. The resulting economic crises led to internal revolts by citizens who were severely affected by poverty. As a consequence, monarchies around the world were gradually abandoned, making way for new political systems. Though not always effective, these systems no longer limited suffering only to peasants."**

In the heavenly garden, Dora slowly lowered his gaze, as the azure eyes of the Queen pierced him.

She stood up and walked toward him, and for each step she did, Dora felt his anguish growing.

"What an ambiguous appearance... Your name was Anesidora? I suppose your guardians couldn't decide if they should give you a male or a female name, but let me know if you have any preference."

She stopped in front of him and leaned closer to his face.

"It's surprising to see another one who has beautiful eyes like that. Nice to meet you, I'm Gloria, People call me the Queen, but I'm also an Avatar, too, just like you."

Dora's eyes moved unconsciously towards the ground.

He hoped to drown the terror that consumed him by losing sight of the lady, but the opposite effect occurred. His impressive senses told him, all too accurately, that death was right in front of him.

"Hmm? You look a little shy... Oh, are you perhaps feeling uncomfortable?"

"N-No! Not at all..."

Dora replied, speaking without even trying. He felt like his body was no longer under his control. The Queen chuckled softly, seeing him panic.

Back in the car, Eryl continued her speech.

"To overcome rising revolts, ancient nobles resorted to silent negotiations or political marriages with some of the rebel leaders. At this time, the kingdom was on the brink of civil war. Like many other kingdoms, the future had to come at the price of the heads and blood of the nobles. It was then that a "miracle" appeared."

Solaria's mouth opened wide in surprise.

"A thousand years ago?" she asked.

"Yes, Princess. This is the first miracle, information that was kept secret by everyone and transmitted to the elites through a rulebook written centuries ago, the Code."

The faces of the young nobles showed concern, gradually understanding the servant's implications.

"Mother existed... one thousand years ago?" whispered Moonra.

The queen placed her hand on Dora's head. Suddenly, his vision became blurry and he felt like he was losing his balance.
