I thought I should make this an explanatory chapter, so that I can explain what has been going on in this story.

First of all, those who go back in time or travel to other worlds do not simply send their souls to do so. They don't. They only send a fragment of their soul to fix their biggest unresolved regret. Not everyone can also go back in time like Ariana or Emilio. Only those who have the greatest regrets, or are responsible for the death of many lives, can go back in time or move to another world to right their wrongs.

I hope that explains why Raoul's soul didn't transmigrate in the last arc. Yes, he also probably killed a lot of people to take over the throne. But Raoul was satisfied with the life he was living, so he didn't transmigrate or go back in time once he died.

Then, did anyone realize that Ariana in each of these lives had a completely different personality? Ariana in her first life was a childish girl. She tends to be impulsive with her actions. And of course because of that personality... Everything was destroyed in the first life.

Ariana in the second life is the embodiment of her responsibility and regret. She is more mature than Ariana in the first life. But unfortunately, she tends to be more serious and stuck in the past that binds her.

Ariana in the third world is the embodiment of the loneliness and fear that Ariana has felt all along. She has not had a good life, and tends to be more quiet and obedient than the other Ariana. From the beginning, her nature was not as brave as the rest of her. It's just that, in times of distress, she can borrow strength from her other souls to get out of trouble (like when she was protecting the hostages. She borrowed Ariana's courage and skills from her second life to protect everyone).

One more thing. Ariana isn't actually dreaming when she talks to her other soul. Whenever Ariana borrows power from her other soul, she does have the opportunity to meet another dead soul. So, was Ariana in her second life dead when they spoke? Yes, she was dead. She lived happily with Raoul until old age and died peacefully before moving on to another world without any memories.

Then, what about Emilio? Well, although he mostly looks crazy, he also split his soul into three. Emilio in the first world is a melancholic man. He's quiet, and the perfect embodiment and puppet for Melisa. It was only after Ariana died that his evil nature began to emerge. He killed many people, and fell completely into madness.

Unfortunately, the Emilio of the second life still carried that kind of evil nature. Emilio's second life was the embodiment and the hidden madness and obsession that Emilio had for Ariana. Emilio of the second world is willing to do anything, if by doing so he can continue to be with Ariana.

It was only when Emilio transmigrated that he was finally able to clear up his mistake. Yes, he may not have been able to completely eliminate the violent nature that carried over from two lifetimes. But in this life, Emilio is more able to restrain his obsession and is even willing to let go of Ariana to be happy with his family at the end of the story. In this third world, Emilio can finally build a healthier relationship with Ariana. And the good news is, Ariana also really loves Emilio this time.

I hope this chapter makes things clearer for everyone. Thank you to those who read this story, supported it, or left comments on this story. I hope I can continue to grow as a writer, and meet you again in another story!

Until next time and have a wonderful day!

    In a large, dark room, a pair of beautiful eyes belonging to a woman stared straight at the wall in front of her. Helped by the pile of pillows she had painstakingly gathered, the woman was finally able to sit up after she had been lying down for a very long time. Her thin body trembled slightly as she struggled to support herself again. Seeing her almost resembling a living skull, no one would believe that she was the most beautiful girl in the entire kingdom in the past. She's Ariana Madeline Alison. The only last descendant of the Duke of Alison, the most influential family who became a legend for working with the first king in founding the Kingdom of Sigmund. Her name has always been the target of praise since she was born. Because not only beautiful, Ariana is also very talented in presenting women's skills. Born as only one noble level below the king, it felt normal for Ariana to be immediately engaged to Crown Prince Emilio shortly after her birth. Hundreds of women cried with

    When Ariana opened her eyes again, she found that she was still breathing and lying on the soft mattress she hadn't felt in a long time. Ariana's brows immediately furrowed when she felt a strange feeling in her body. Falling from that height should crush her body into shape. But this time, not only did she no longer feel any discomfort in her entire body, but Ariana also realized that she could again move the parts of her body that should have been paralyzed by the poison she had consumed. Can fall from a height cure the poison lodged in her body? Ariana thought it was impossible. Ariana never knew that there was such a method to neutralize poison that even the best doctors couldn't cure. Not to mention that her body was too fine for someone who had just fallen from a height. Ariana tried to get up when by chance the door in the room was opened by someone. "You are awake, Lady Aria. Please allow me to call the doctor first."Nothing can describe Ariana's surprise when she saw her

    "Grandpa, where are Mother and Father? I … I want to meet them too." Since Ariana still felt like she was in the afterlife presently, the first thing she asked was the whereabouts of her parents, whom she missed so much. But her question immediately made Andrew's movements stop. The man stared at his granddaughter for a long time, while James immediately took over and came over to talk to the girl. "Lady Aria ... Did you forget? The Young Lady's parents ... They are in a better place now." Ariana's brows knit together as she heard that answer. "Aren't I dead too? Are … Father and Mother somewhere else in this realm?" "What exactly are you talking about?" Andrew's expression changed again as his granddaughter started to say nonsense. He was about to be angry that the little girl dared to say that she had died so easily. His voice even got sharper. But when he received pleading glances from the butler in his house, the man tried to calm his emotions as he massaged the bridge of his

    "Lady Aria?"James was really surprised when he walked in, the man could see her normally sweet-behaved young lady daydreaming with an expression that a child shouldn't have. James was worried because ever since the girl woke up from her stupor, Ariana had been acting different from usual. Even the way she treated her grandfather, was far different from the way the girl usually behaved.For now, James intended to keep a close eye on Ariana's change in attitude. After all, Ariana is the only heir to her family at this time. The slightest bit of carelessness can no longer be tolerated. James didn't want his master to be angry anymore, like when the man heard the news that his granddaughter had fallen into the pool and passed out for several days."Lady Aria, I have brought the food that you previously asked for. Since The Young Lady has just come to your senses, please forgive me for being able to only prepare easily digestible food for your meal."Ariana had been awake from her daydream

    Standing in front of the girl's grandfather's study door, Ariana took a deep breath to calm her slightly nervous feelings. As Ariana expected, her grandfather didn't let her wait too long when the man immediately allowed Ariana to come to his study. Both James and Duke Andrew must have known what Ariana was up to want to speak directly to the head of the family. Ariana knew she couldn't embarrass herself in her grandfather's study. Ariana tried to correct her posture before she politely knocked on the door."Grandpa, this is Aria. May I come in now?""Do come in."Duke Andrew immediately replied from inside the room after Ariana introduced herself. Carefully, Ariana opened the door of Grandpa's study which was large and difficult to reach with her small body. She had a hard time opening it, but her dignified look returned when Ariana pushed the large door shut again.Seeing the adorable behavior of his rarely-seen granddaughter, Duke Andrew couldn't help but a small smile formed on his

    “Then I'll go first, Grandpa!”Duke Andrew watched as his granddaughter cheerfully came out of his room after they had finished talking together. The smile that was originally visible on Duke Andrew's lips was completely gone, when the door to his study closed tightly again after Ariana left.“James, you're here, right?”Out of the shadows, James came out and bowed respectfully to his master. “I'm here, Your Grace,” he said respectfully. Duke Andrew's brows furrowed from time to time, as his granddaughter's sudden change of mind completely boggled his mind at the moment.“James, who's in charge of following Aria when she visits the palace?” Duke Andrew asked.“It's Valencia and the two knights named Luke and Cale, My Lord. Do I need to summon them here?”Duke Andrew nodded and James took his orders immediately. It didn't take long before the summoned people knelt before the Duke. They all greeted Duke Andrew respectfully, before standing back up when Duke Andrew had allowed them to.“T

    Ariana returned to her room after she finished talking to her grandfather. Before they started a conversation, Ariana already knew that she couldn't hide everything from her grandfather. Ariana was lucky to be able to come with an agreement so easily this time. Using an excuse about learning swordsmanship, was indeed the right choice for Ariana. As long as she continues to defy royal policies and act casually, Ariana is sure not even the king will protest when their family decides to break off her engagement to Crown Prince Emilio.About the possible consequences of going against the palace's orders, Ariana believed she could use her accident to pretend to be acting crazy. In her previous life, Ariana remembered well that both the queen, the crown prince, and the king were very shocked when they heard the news that Ariana had deliberately thrown herself into the pool after returning from the royal palace.Even though it wasn't necessarily their fault, the people were still afraid to o

    Ariana walked carefully as she decided to spend her spare time checking out the backyard where she fell a few days ago. Although Ariana herself wasn't sure she would find any clues there, the girl at least wanted to try and satisfy her curiosity.“Uh, where's the pool?”But when Ariana reached the place, her forehead wrinkled as she couldn't see any pool as far as the eye could see. Valencia, who was following Ariana, followed the girl's gaze, then immediately understood what the girl was really thinking.“Ah, the backyard pool has been replaced with a flower garden after His Grace deemed the place dangerous for Lady Aria. After His Grace carried out a major renovation of the backyard garden, this place has now been declared safe as Lady Aria's playground.”Ariana knew she was wrong. If she knew her grandfather would change the backyard after her accident, she would rather ask Valencia directly than pretend she wanted to take a walk to the backyard with Valencia. Ariana hadn't noticed

    ["Did your exams go well? I heard from Aunt Melisa that you just got back from a business trip when exam season started. Emilio, even if you want to get into the business world as soon as possible like your parents, forcing yourself to do so is not a good thing either."]Emilio smiled softly as he heard his lover's nagging from the earphones he was using. The man felt lucky that in this world, even though they were now separated by distance, the two of them could still be in touch as if they had always been together. Emilio's gaze softened when he looked at Ariana, who was having a video call with him while lying on her big bed. At least by seeing that Ariana was comfortable with her own family, Emilio felt that the choice he made two years ago was the right one."Things are going well, Ariana. But still ... I can hardly believe my beloved can already nag me at this point."Ariana chuckled when she heard Emilio's complaint. Actually, even if Emilio sounded like he was complaining beca

    When Ariana opened her eyes again, this time the girl was immediately greeted by the bright light of the all-white room lights. The girl heard several footsteps coming towards her. Ariana slowly changed her gaze and saw Emilio, Melisa, and Alister all approaching her with a look of surprise and relief on their faces.Ah, I'm still alive. That's what Ariana immediately thought when she realized that she was in the hospital all this time. Ariana's heart was squeezed when she saw Emilio crying and holding her hand tightly. Although Emilio didn't say anything, Ariana knew he was the most thankful one when she was awake at this moment."You're finally awake, Ariana," Emilio said in a trembling voice. The man bit his lip hard. Even though Emilio had agreed to attend counseling sessions aimed at reducing his unhealthy obsession with Ariana, Emilio still felt like he was suffocating when he saw that Ariana had regained her thinness in just a few days."I shouldn't have left you at that time.

    "The Ariana we know is the daughter of Alison's family, who has been missing all this time. Emilio, Ariana's family is alive, and they are still searching for their daughter today."Emilio's mind was a mess when he heard his father's words. All this time, even though he sounded evil, Emilio felt happy when he heard that Ariana no longer had anyone in this world. Emilio thought there would be no one to take Ariana away from him from now on. But now, he had to accept the fact that someone could take Ariana away from him whenever they wanted.If Ariana was asked to choose between her family or her lover, her choice had always been clear in her two previous lives. Emilio looked at Ariana with a dark gaze. His bad thoughts rose again, as he started planning how to hide Ariana from Alison's family.Once Alister and Melisa saw the evil look in Emilio's eyes, they were finally convinced of their choice. Neither of them wanted to separate the two after the terrible events they went through. Ho

    With Ariana's kidnapping accident, Alister and Melisa, who were supposed to be away for a week on a business trip, ended up cutting their business trip short by three days. The two took the earliest flight and arrived at the hospital in the morning. In Ariana's hospital room, the two met Ian, and some bodyguards, who looked like they hadn't slept for a few days. The one who looked the worst was, of course, Ian. The bespectacled man, who usually always looked neat, now appeared with messy hair in front of them. Even his glasses which were usually properly fitted looked a little lopsided because Ian was in a hurry to fix them."Welcome back, Mr. Alister, Mrs. Melisa."They greeted Alister and Melisa in unison while bowing slightly. Alister nodded and gestured for them to sit down again. He couldn't bear to see them standing when they already looked like the undead."Ian, where was Emilio when Ariana was here?"As soon as they sat down, Melisa who couldn't find her son anywhere immediate

    Bang!Ariana closed her eyes and prepared herself to face death. But after all this time, the pain and death she expected didn't happen either. Instead, Ariana could feel that the masked man's grip on her was weakening as time passed. Ariana opened her eyes, then saw the gruesome wound on the side of the man's head."Police, don't move!"Not far from their position, Not far from their position, Ariana saw that Emilio had just shot someone in order to save her. Behind the teenager, a group of police suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Some of the policemen moved quickly to fight the armed robbers, while others immediately secured the hostages. The badly injured Ariana was caught in the middle of the chaos. She could hear someone walking over and calling her name. Ariana smiled a little. There was no mistaking it, this person who was approaching her was the same person who shot dead the masked man who tried to kill her.Although Ariana's eyes were already heavy when Emilio was able to app

    While everyone was busy searching for the whereabouts of the hostages taken by the robbers, Ariana, who had been taken by her Uncle finally woke up due to the abnormal shaking she had been feeling. As soon as she opened her eyes, Ariana was shocked to find that she had been in a fast-moving car all this time. Her limp body was crushed in the middle of two men with large bodies. Her hands were tightly bound, while her mouth was gagged with a cloth covered with plaster so she couldn't speak or scream.On the driver's seat, Daedalus, who had noticed Ariana's movement, turned to look at the girl. His face which had been shrouded in anger had now returned to a gentle look. The man smiled slightly, as he spoke in a soft tone to Ariana."Ariana, you can sleep longer, you know. We're going to a place so far away after this. Uncle has thought of it properly. In order for no one else to find and snatch you from Uncle, we should probably go to a place where no one else will recognize us."Ariana

    Ever since Emilio finished his group work, the young man hadn't stopped checking his phone with a furrowed brow. It was unusual for Ariana to ignore his calls like this. Ever since Melisa bought the girl a new cell phone, Ariana was always ready to answer their calls even if the girl was asleep.But this time, Emilio didn't get the answer he wanted even if he had called dozens of times. The young man started to feel something was wrong, so he finally asked Ian to give him the phone number of the bodyguard who was asked to guard Ariana at her house.[The number you have reached, cannot be reached.]Emilio grew impatient when he didn't get a positive answer from the people around Ariana.
