The Love That Remains
Chapter 68 - I will find her again
"So, the god of time turned back the time. Fang Aisa remembers everything from a different timeline." Bae Jaemin slowly speaks to understand. "Your father also invited an immortal demon. Are they not banned from the council?"
"I have already raised the issue to the council. The other councilmen had no idea that he called a demon. If people find out that the president of the council is friendly to demons, they will never trust the council again." Sung Jun sounds tired. "It's not like they trust the council now."
"Will they vote to remove your father?" Bae Jaemin is aware of Sung's legacy. The reason who a Sung is always chosen as the president of the council since it was formed is that the shamans are seen as the gatekeepers between the spirit world and the mortal world. It's also because the Sung family is known to have the rarest talents in their bloodlines. They are also blessed by heaven itself to take the task of protecting the human world and the supernatural world within the human world from each other.
"Does not it mean that you will become the president?" Bae Jaemin voices out his thought hesitantly. He knows that Sung Jun doesn't want to be the president of the council. Now, Sung Jun is already a king-ranked shaman. He will be the first choice. "What will you do?"
"I don't know." He looks like he has grown a decade. "I am worried about Fang Aisa. I can't think of anything else. For some reasons, I feel like she is in danger." He can't forget the look that Reis gave him before he disappeared. There was something in Reis' eyes that's still disturbing him to his core.
"Where is Wang Mei?"
"After she heard that Fang Aisa was kidnapped, she immobilized her people to look for her. She even forced her famous sister to share Fang Aisa's photo along with a message. Her sister and brother are holding a meeting with the leading news channel's reporters."
Sung Jun looks at him with approval. "She is doing a good job."
"Fang Aisa's father is also helping Wang Mei," Bae Jaemin adds. "It's quite sad that he couldn't even meet his daughter before she disappeared again."
"She will come back." Sung Jun furrows his brows. "I will find her again."
Bae Jaemin sees the same haunting look in his eyes that he once saw around eight years ago. Finding the person to lose again, what kind of fate is this?
"Jun, do not lose hope." Bae Jaemin pats his shoulder reassuringly. Sung Jun nods slowly. He is tired. The pill is still in his pocket, but he is afraid to see his past. He thinks that he will see something worse than his present situation.
"Where is your father right now?"
"He was noisy after he realized that he would lose his president seat soon. The councilmen banned him from coming to the council. Right now, he is house locked. Uncle Kim is looking after him."
Uncle Kim is the family butler. He has been a close confidante of Sung Ki-Woong. Sung Jun is sure that he also knows about his father involvement with demons and other dark creatures.
"No councilman is clean though."
"I know."
"How is Aunty Sung?" Bae Jaemin didn't see Aunty Sung today.
After a short chat, Bae Jaemin leaves. He is going to use his contacts in the supernatural world to find information on Fang Aisa. Sung Jun has already informed all his sources. He even asked the councilmen who were already treating his requests as his commands as the president. The enforcers and the hunters are in search of Fang Aisa.
Sung Jun locks his room. He lays down on the bed. He is still wearing last nightclothes. He fiddles with the pill and repeats all the words that Fang Aisa has ever said to him. From her words, he can guess that they have been in a relationship in their other lives too before he left her.
This is the burden that she was holding inside her heart. He has to know even if it changes everything. Maybe he will find clues for whereabouts.
Sung Jun takes the pill and falls asleep.
