Chapter 24: Chapter 24: Double twist.
Prometheus right hand, still stretched out towards the sky as if he was trying to catch something elusive, suddenly his hand dropped to the ground. That's when he touched something different. It was not earth but water.
This water was warm and comforting, like a bath in winter. Tears were flowing from Prometheus eyes "I make them, but too late. "Only Prometheus' fingertips were in contact with the divine water. With so little water Prometheus could not heal from the poison or his wound.
- Why does fate want to play me one last time?
Prometheus did not want to give up, his body was paralized by the poison, he had no strength left in his body and he had lost at least 1.5 litres of blood. Yet Prometheus made a superhuman effort to move his body. He pushed with all his strength on his legs. 'A few centimeters, I have to do it' Prometheus didn't want to give up, he had to do it. He wanted to live.
Prometheus' fingertips dipped in divine water, then it was the whole fingers, the more his body touched the divine water, the more he felt an incredible force entering his body. Prometheus pushed on his legs with all his strength, his hands ended up immersed in water.
Suddenly when the ring that Prometheus wore on his left hand was under water, a white light began to appear. The ring shone, sending rays of golden light into Prometheus' eyes. Prometheus' vision was no longer blurred, he saw the ring, which had gone from a black color to a pure gold color.
Changes were beginning to happen in his body. The strength came back to him, he could move his body again. Yet he kept pushing on his legs until he fell completely into the divine water source. Prometheus sank into the water, he no longer had any areas in his lungs, the water went into his wounds, yet he felt a sense of undefinable well-being. The ring shone so brightly that it had to be blinding.
Prometheus put his hands in front of his eyes. Suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his heart. His heart seemed to grow bigger and bigger again, as if he was mutating. Prometheus spat blood, he wanted to scream in pain but the water was making him die.
The blood flowed faster and faster in his vain, they began to grow, the whole body of Prometheus had become a venous. But before Prometheus had time to react, he passed out. But nothing stopped, Prometheus body began to evacuate the poison and at the same time Prometheus heart kept growing, then it began to change form, it looked almost like two hearts stuck together.

Nostradamus stood in front of Rajnish and the entire team. They were sitting around a round table. Nostradamus looked at them one by one with his Persian eyes, everyone seemed stressed even people like Rajnish who had nothing to blame themselves for.
Nostradamus clears his throat. "Madam Sir, I greet you", At the table there were 8 people and Rajnish. There were two women and six men. One of the women around the table was small, her face covered with freckles and her eyes hidden by large round glasses.
This woman seemed pretty weak. But on the contrary this person was Victoria Sphinx, also known as the demon hunter. This woman was known for her magical powers, she was formidable, responsible for more than 200 dangerous criminal arrests in her 4-year career. She was known to be shy and socially maladjusted but also to be inflexible when it came to fighting or justice. It was a kind of feminine Nostradamus but older tham him.
The other woman was an agent of rank A, a hand-to-hand warrior named Yvonne. There was also an SS ranking agent named Kratos A fighter armed with an ache, he mastered no magic he used his mana heart that he had developed up to the stage of mana blood. He was a powerful warrior known to never lose a fight.
The other agents around the table were all A-rank agents. He was all in his thirties or forties.
Nostradamus began to smile. "One of you betrayed me. »
Everyone seemed shocked by Nostradamus words, what did he mean?
"Uh, excuse me. One of you will betray me" Nostradamus laughed. "And one of you is going to die."
Everyone watched Nostradamus with anticipation. Who was going to betray him? Who was going to die? Was he the same person? Was Nostradamus going to kill him?
"You who will betray me, I can't stop you right now, but once you have acted, I could. Because I am the justice. "Nostradamus was known for his cliché sentences and long monologue. He used to call himself "Justice. »
Only Rajnish didn't seem shocked, he looked at Nostradamus as if he was a buffoon. Rajnish gave himself a hand on the forehead 'what an idiot, he would have surprised the traitor sent by Gontran'.
