Hence, Yelena gave Ben instructions to find the old woman, but since she was busy with the situation with Incan, she had almost forgotten about it.

‘In there… is the old woman.’

Yelena walked all the way here in a daze.

Standing in front of the tightly closed parlor door, Yelena took a short breath and ordered, “Open the door.”

The servant opened the door to the parlor.

As soon as Yelena entered the parlor, she stopped breathing.

An old woman, no different from her memory, sat on the sofa inside the parlor room.

Yelena’s heart was racing.

A sense of reality flooded in belatedly.

Yelena dismissed all the maids waiting in the parlor room and sat opposite the old woman.

After a brief silence, Yelena spoke first.

“…Grandma.”

It wasn’t until Yelena called for the woman that she realized she didn’t even know her name.

“You… Who are you?”

She should have asked when they first met.

It was a very overdue question. Instead of answering, the old woman looked at Yelena silently.

Yelena looked at the silent old woman.

The old woman wasn’t dressed like a beggar, unlike when she first met Yelena.

That alone made her look like a considerably different person.

‘How did you find her?’

That question burned in Yelena’s mind.

In a way, the woman looked similar to Yelena’s description, but their impressions were so different.

‘You found this woman using the features I described?’

At that moment, the old woman opened her mouth.

“Who I am… Did you find this old woman out of curiosity?”

“That’s…”

“I’m nothing great. Just an ordinary old woman with a knack that no one else has.”

‘An ordinary old woman.’

It occurred to Yelena that it was quite a bold statement, but she did not refute it.

Now there was something more important than for her to pick on every little word.

“Okay. Whoever you are, that’s fine. Grandma, please help me out.”

Yelena grabbed the old woman’s wrinkled hand.

“Help me.”

“My husband… Show the future to the Duke. And tell him how to stop the future.”

Yelena appealed while grasping the old woman’s hand.

That was the fastest way to solve Yelena’s situation.

There was no question.

Yelena gazed at the old woman with a mix of hope and desperation.

However, the old woman suddenly sighed deeply.

“Haah…”

“ …?”

“That’s why you were looking for me. I’m glad you’re here.”

“What do you mean…?”

Yelena blinked.

The old woman sounded like she had come here on her own.

‘Didn’t Ben find her?’

Ben had definitely brought the old woman here.

Then that meant, knowing that Yelena was looking for someone, the old woman purposely showed up in front of Ben…

“It’s useless.”

Yelena’s eyes widened at the old woman’s words.

“What?”

“Even if I show the future to your husband, the Duke, nothing will change.”

“…What do you mean? Does that mean he won’t cooperate even if he finds out about the future?”

Yelena thought that couldn’t be possible.

The fate of the world was at stake.

In other words, her husband’s life depended on it.

He wouldn’t want to lose his life due to a mass attack in twenty years.

The old woman shook her head. “Do you remember what this old woman said before?”

“What…?”

“Only when the souls intertwine can a warrior be born.”

‘Keep in mind. Only when the souls intertwine can a warrior be born.’

Yelena nodded her head.

She remembered.

But it didn’t hold as much significance.

It was because she thought the phrase about the souls intertwining was more of a figurative expression.

In other words, if the two individuals formed an agreement and worked together, then the soul was said to be intertwined.

And when they made love, their souls would connect…

“No way…”

Yelena stiffened.

The old woman opened her mouth as she looked at Yelena’s severely hardened face.

“This old woman’s words about the ‘souls intertwining’ means that the hearts are connected.”

“…!”

“To put it simply, it’s love.”

The strength in Yelena’s hand, which held the old woman’s hand, drained away.

The old woman continued, “The child of Duke Kaywhin Mayhard and his wife will become warriors. That is an unchangeable fact. But if the soul doesn’t connect, no matter what you do, you won’t have a child.”

“…“
