After seeing Elizabeth had left the Heart town with her father, Patriarch Vincent Snow, Leo was then called by his older brother Reinhart to his father\'s office, saying that he has something important to say to him.

At first, the moment he heard that they would be meeting at his father\'s office, he can\'t help feeling worried that there might be something bad that had happened to his father. But recalling how strong his father was, even much stronger than the King of Silver Kingdom, he shoved such thoughts to the back of his mind. Moreover, his mother was even more powerful than his father, so with her being by his side, it would not be easy to defeat both of them.

It took Leo ten minutes or so to travel from the foot of the hill back inside the manor. He quickly went upstairs to his father\'s office and soon noticed that the door was slightly opened.

Cringk....

Leo slowly pushes the door opened and right after noticed his older brother Reinhart sitting on the top of the table while holding a book in his hand and reading its content. No, it wasn\'t a book, but rather a diary of his father.

"Older brother?" Leo silently called out to his older brother, Reinhart.

Hearing Leo\'s voice, Reinhart slowly turned his head to look at Leo, who was standing by the door. He smiled at him before motioning his hand to come and sit beside him.

Seeing Reinhart\'s smile, Leo immediately nodded his head and went to sit by his side. The table was big enough for them both to sit side-by-side anyways, and not to mention their parents weren\'t home so there is no need to worry about getting caught. If his father was here and saw them sitting on his table, he would definitely scold them, because not only did they intrude on his private room, but they were also sitting on the table instead of the chair.

"What did you call me here for older brother?" Leo can\'t help asking while trying to look at the content of the diary that his older brother Reinhart was reading moments ago. To his shock, it was actually about the Red Cube.

"Do you remember what I\'ve always told you about the Red Cube?" Reinhart asked before slowly closing his father\'s diary and turning to look at Leo with a gentle look on his face.

"You\'ve told me a lot of things about the Red Cube," Leo replied while putting his hand up forward, wanting to grab his father\'s diary on his older brother Reinhart\'s hand. He also wants to read the content of his father\'s diary, especially since they won\'t be able to know. Who knows, he might just discover some embarrassing words like how much he loves his two sons and wife.

Reinhart simply handed Leo the diary, not intending to keep it a secret from him. Even if he wouldn\'t give this to Leo, now that he had seen this diary, he would definitely sneak into their father\'s office one day and find this diary to read its content. Anyways, whether Leo found out about the content of this diary or not, he would forget about it soon, because his intention of calling Leo here was to finally seal his memories about the Red Cube and anything related to Magic that he has interacted with throughout the years. It was now time to do his end of the agreement with his father.

"Indeed, I\'ve said a lot of things about the Red Cube to you, hahaha!" Reinhart chuckled.

"So, what about it?" Leo said while slowly flipping his father\'s diary to look for that page. He was interested and excited to know what that content about the Red Cube was all about.

"Remember that I told you before, that no matter what you do, you should not choose to walk your destined Fate to fight against the Gods," Reinhart replied.

Hearing Reinhart\'s words, Leo stopped flipping his father\'s diary before turning to look at him, "Why?"

Reinhart smiled and said, "Just flip to that page you\'re looking for first."

Actually, Reinhart had purposely let Leo read a bit about the content of that page so that Leo would look for it once he handed him the diary. This was all part of his plan, which is to let Leo know first what he was going to do before finally doing it. He wants to know what his younger brother thinks about his plan.

Deep in Reinhart\'s mind, he can\'t help feeling a bit scared and nervous, because this was the first time he\'s telling this to Leo after hiding it from him for many years. His parents might be able to accept his plan, but it was different for Leo because this plan was about him.

However, even if Leo disagrees with his plan, Reinhart would still do it, no matter what. He was already determined and prepared, even if this might cause Leo to hate him.

Leo nodded his head after hearing his older brother Reinhart\'s words and started flipping to that page. Soon, he arrived on that page and quickly began reading its content. As he keeps on reading the content of that page, tears slowly formed in his eyes before they one by one dropped to the diary. His hand was also already shaking while clinching the diary, causing the paper to be crumpled.

The content of the page was about his older brother Reinhart\'s agreement with his father. It mentioned about sealing his memories about the Red Cube and anything related to Magic that he had interacted with so far, so as to make the Red Cube give up on him and choose another owner, which would mean he no longer needs to walk that destined Fate to fight against the Gods.

Leo thought, "So this was the reason why he brought up that topic..."

After a few minutes of reading, Leo finally finished reading everything. He now clearly understood what was going to happen to him soon.

Slowly, Leo turned to look at his older brother Reinhart. He didn\'t say any words, but rather only looked straight at his eyes, hoping that he could find a small, or even just a tiny bit, of hesitation.

Although he knows that Reinhart\'s plan was beneficial for him and was only for his own good, he still can\'t help feeling a bit of heartache in his heart. He doesn\'t really know why he was feeling this sort of pain. Maybe deep inside him he really wants to be a hero to save everyone in the Celestial World, or maybe it\'s because he felt he was betrayed by his parents and his older brother Reinhart, the people he trusted the most.

"Ol... older brother... would you regret after doing this?" Leo asked a bit of hope was hidden in between the lines.

Reinhart only replied with a smile.

"Wou... would you feel sa... sad after doing this?"

Reinhart nodded his head as his eyes can\'t help starting to form tears.

"Wou... would you feel bet... better after doing this?"

Tears finally started flowing from Reinhart\'s eyes as he softly muttered in response, "I... don\'t know... maybe... or maybe not..."

Finally, seeing a bit of hesitation from Reinhart, Leo smiled. He quickly hugged his older brother, Reinhart, tightly and seemingly like he doesn\'t intend to let go.

Reinhart couldn\'t hold on anymore as he burst into tears and tightly hugged Leo back.

Both of them cried together while hugging tightly. Time passes in silence, and when the sound of crying was finally over, both of them finally let go.

Leo put his hand up in front and wiped his older brother Reinhart\'s tears off from his eyes.

Seeing this, Reinhart smiled at his younger brother Leo and allowed him to wipe his tears off.

After wiping the tears off from his older brother Reinhart\'s eyes, Leo then smiled and said, "Before sealing my memories, can you promise me one thing?"

"What is it?" Reinhart curiously asked.

"I know that once you successfully seal all of my memories about the Red Cube and anything related to Magic that I\'ve interacted with, this would also include all the memories I\'ve made together with Elizabeth, right?"

Reinhart nodded his head to confirm that Leo\'s guess was correct.

"So, can you go over to Elizabeth\'s place and also seal all of her memories about me? I don\'t want her to feel sad once she realized that I\'ve forgotten everything about her and all the promises we\'ve made. She\'s a good girl, and I also promised my mother to protect her. You know what I meant, right? If you can promise me this one thing, then I will let you seal those memories without feeling a single bit of hate on you." Leo finished his words while biting his lips, trying to hold himself from crying again.

To be honest, Elizabeth was the only worry left in his heart right now after crying for a long time. He already accepted that his memories would be sealed. But thinking that once that happened Elizabeth would feel sad when the day they will meet again comes, he thought that it\'s much better for her to also forget everything about him, to make it fair.

Hearing Leo\'s request, Reinhart nodded his head and replied, "You can rest assured that I would do that after sealing your memories."

Leo slowly formed a relieved smile on his face as he said, "Do it! Seal my memories, older brother!"

Gritting his teeth, Reinhart slowly put his hand up on Leo\'s head and finally began sealing his memories.

However, before Reinhart could finish sealing the memories, Leo suddenly said, "Remember this in your heart older brother; right now, your actions are no different from the Red Cube..."

"I know..." Reinhart said while clenching his other hand, "But mine is much better than the Red Cube..."

After saying that, Leo\'s body then fell on Reinhart\'s chest.

After sealing someone\'s memories, what would follow after is losing consciousness as their mind would experience a sudden and forceful change inside. This wouldn\'t cause anything bad. It is only a natural reaction since the consciousness is now trying to locate the missing memories, and the moment they can\'t find the missing memories, this would then trigger a defense mechanism that causes the consciousness to not accept any memories for a bit of time, specifically till they wake up, so as to check if there were any damages done to the consciousness, and quickly fix it if there is indeed one.

"Sleep tight, and everything would be alright the moment you wake up..." Reinhart said before carrying Leo to his room.

Arriving inside Leo\'s room, Reinhart then placed Leo on his bed before turning to look at the Red Cube by the side of the bed, who now shows no reaction anymore.

"Please, just give up and leave my younger brother alone. You should not involve him in the mess that all of you Gods have created." Reinhart said to the Red Cube before finally leaving Leo\'s room.

Right now, Elizabeth was still traveling towards the Silver city, which is really the perfect timing for Reinhart to seal her memories and complete his agreement with Leo. But would it really matter though, considering that even if he indeed successfully seals Elizabeth\'s memories, he still won\'t be able to seal Patriarch Vincent Snow\'s memories, hence there is a really high chance for Elizabeth to remember Leo again.

Back inside Leo\'s room, the Red Cube suddenly fly up and circled above the unconscious Leo.

What Reinhart doesn\'t know though, the supposedly silent Red Cube had purposely didn\'t intervene when Reinhart was sealing Leo\'s memories because in its mind it also agreed with Reinhart.

However, the Red Cube\'s, or to be more exact, the God of Fate\'s only best choice left right now to save the Celestial World, was Leo. Therefore, although he had indeed let Reinhart sealed Leo\'s memories and agreed with his opinion, he had still thought of doing something that might or might not help Leo unsealed his memories. Simply put, the God of Fate itself has resigned everything to Fate.

.....

Deep inside the Twilight Forest, specifically, the place where Reinhart had eliminated the tribe of that Forest Rat King, a Silver Fur Wolf was currently sniffing on the ground, looking for food to eat.

Suddenly, this Silver Fur Wolf saw a really small sky-blue shining object on the ground in front of it.

Out of curiosity, the Silver Fur Wolf walked towards the small shining object and quickly began sniffing it the moment it arrived in front of it to identify whether it can eat it or not.

Half a second later, the Silver Fur Wolf quickly snapped its mouth as it ate that small shining object. It was able to easily identify that the small shining object was actually the Magic core of a 1 Star Magical Beast. To be precise, this was the Magic core of the Forest Rat King.

What no one knows yet, that 18 years from now, Leo would coincidentally find and kill this exact same Silver Fur Wolf, and inside he would find the small Mana stone that will allow him to discover his affinity to become a Mage, again.....

From that day on, the silent and peaceful battle between Reinhart and the God of Fate has resulted in the latter winning, while all the efforts the former has done were gone to waste.
