Chapter 345 Memories Are Never Truly Lost

Seraphina let out a low sigh as she said, “I wish I could, but I already checked since I knew you might ask this. It seems that your soul is inaccessible to me and is protected by something I cannot understand. I have never seen anything like that. Otherwise, I could have done something to help you recover your memories. There are many ways one gets their memories wiped, and usually, they are never truly lost.”

Viktor felt disappointed that getting back his memories seemed harder than he thought. However, he remembered something and voiced his concern, “I think my memories still exist somewhere inside me because when I went to the Naraka Realm and died twice, I happened to see glimpses of things I never experienced before…but they felt very familiar, and I realized they were actually the memories I was seeking. Why…Why did I suddenly get these glimpses in that place only and nothing for the past 2000 years?”

”You were in the Naraka Realm? How terrible…” Seraphina held her hand against her chest as if she was horrified to learn about it. It seemed as if this was one of the events she wasn’t able to learn after taking a glimpse at his life.

It was the one place races like the fairies dreaded as that place was the synonym of death, opposite of what they existed for.

But after hearing that he got a glimpse of his memories in the Naraka Realm, Seraphina thought of something as she continued, “If you were able to see glimpses of your past…then it must be because your death triggered a certain and deep part of your soul where your memories probably lie in fragments since you only saw a glimpse and not the entirety of it. It is said that when one dies, they see their whole life play before their eyes in a flash before passing away. But in your case, your memories were probably hidden so deep and fragmented, dying in the Naraka Realm, a place filled with pure death energy, was the only factor that triggered it. That must be why you don’t get glimpses of your past if you die anywhere else.”

Viktor felt that something made sense even if he didn’t get the full gist of it. However, even if he might seem like a madman, he really wanted to go to the Naraka Realm and keep on dying again and again till he could regain his entire memories.

And so he asked, “This might sound crazy…but is there any way I can get to the Naraka Realm and still come back?”

If Seraphina heard Viktor ask this without any context, she would have wondered if he went mad since not even evil beings would like to set foot in that place. Even if they might not die instantly, they will die a horrifying death.

Seraphina sighed as she said, “None of us have the power to visit such a realm. It is originally said to be only accessed by the Guardian Gods. And even if you happen to find a way to get there, you will never be able to come back on your own. You will just undergo an eternal cycle of death till you lose your sanity since that place literally eats away at your soul every moment you spend there. It is not something I wish you do, no matter how desperate you are to regain your memories. It is just not worth it.”

”Haa…don’t worry….I won’t do anything stupid…” Viktor said with a smile, though inwardly, he felt that there was only one other way to get back his memories and find out who he truly was.

—

Night soon arrived, and Viktor didn’t dare to switch to his werewolf bloodline. Instead, he was consciously making sure he stayed human as well since otherwise, he might do something crazy or stupid because of Talia.

He was glad that the Fairy Queen was able to help him put up with Talia, especially since he asked her to find some way to distract her during the night. Otherwise, she might trick him again.

Still, he realized that this wouldn’t work, and he really needed to find a way to take care of this whole Talia business. But since Talia wasn’t really an ordinary woman, he truly didn’t have the experience or the means to deal with her.

*Knock….*

However, suddenly a soft knock echoed in the house Viktor was staying in, making him come out of his thoughts and wonder if it was Talia. He didn’t even use his werewolf abilities to sniff out who it was and retained his human self as he warily opened the door.

Still, based on the sound of knocking, he had a certain guess…

And as the door opened, a 5 feet tall doll-like fairy wearing a one-shoulder radiant yellow dress that was hugging her curvaceous body was standing before him with a basket of small fruits while happily looking at him with her innocent and pure yellow pearl-like eyes.

It seemed as if she had lost all timidness after learning that Viktor was a person of pure heart and held no reservations against him.

”Felia?” Viktor didn’t expect her to show up at his doorstep now, but he could guess the reason based on the basket of fruits.

She eagerly handed over the basket of fruits to Viktor as she said, “I thought that you might feel hungry during the night. So I picked these fruits which can help you not feel hungry for a while during your stay here.”

Viktor felt very fond of this cute fairy, who seemed to be very thoughtful as well, and said with a smile, “Since these fruits were given to me by a pretty fairy like you, I will make sure to eat them all with pleasure.”

Felia’s eyes sparkled, seeing how Viktor was happy with the fruits she gave him.

But Viktor then spotted a red bruise on her arms and asked with concern in his voice, “You again climbed a tree to get these fruits?”

Felia nodded with a smile as she said, “This tree was actually not as big as the other one, but since it was too dark, I had to spend some time collecting these.”

”Come inside. I can’t let you go back like this,” Viktor said in an adamant tone.
