Chapter 588: Revealing the truth about Diana

A few days ago, Ethan and Emelda followed Diana into her room in the Winston manor.

"Dian, stop," Emelda called out to stop Diana, who strolled into her room, blasting the door open.

After she entered, Ethan quickly closed the door behind her. Despite Emelda calling her repeatedly, Diana didn't even turn around but rushed into the room. After entering the room, Diana walked straight to the book rack beside the black bed.

"Dian, please listen to us," Ethan slowly approached Diana as she pulled out a crimson red book from the neatly stacked books on the rack.

As soon as she pulled out the book, a golden light enveloped Diana before the orange curtains were replaced by dark curtains, turning the room dark.

But the chandelier hanging down the ceiling lit the room as Emelda saw the books rack slowly moving aside. Emelda was startled to see the dark robes, black swords, and daggers on the wall behind the book rack.

A cold chill ran down her spine, looking at the wall because it reminded her of the memories Emelda desperately tried to forget.

"Dian, just stop and think about this. You cannot go up against the Guardians," Ethan tried to stop Diana. But no matter how many times Ethan called her, Diana simply didn't bother to listen to him. Instead, she waved her hand as her golden robes turned dark. The next moment, the dark robes on the wall slowly floated to Diana.

"You...you still have them..." Emelda stuttered while Diana put on the robes and the dark black long coat over the robes.

She was about to take the two black swords when Ethan placed his hand on Diana's shoulder.

"Listen to us, Dian. Please,"

"I am done listening," Ethan had never heard a colder voice than Diana's. But, to be honest, it frightened him.

But still, Ethan didn't back down as he turned her around using his strength because, despite her look, she was a hell of a lot stronger than him.

When she finally turned around, her cold gaze swept across Ethan, pushing him a few meters away from her.

"Diana, what's all this? I thought you put that life behind you," Emelda stuttered,

"Diana, I know how you feel. I am furious too. But we cannot let our anger blind our judgment. We cannot go against the Guardians. If the Skyhall knew you're back into cultivation, they would imprison you. In the worst case, they would..." Ethan couldn't finish his sentence saying they would kill her.

"They caged our daughter...They tortured her..." Diana clenched her fist, speaking each word with dead coldness.

"Everything was orchestrated by the Guardians so they could get something they wanted,"

"It's the vampires who kidnapped Sabi," Emelda swallowed the fear in her heart to utter these words,

"They were just an arrow. The one who fired the arrow was the guardians," Ethan growled. It was true that Ethan didn't want Diana to go against the guardian. However, it didn't mean he wasn't furious. Only if Ethan had the power, would he have destroyed the guardians by now. Since it wasn't the case, he had to stop Diana from making any decision they would all regret later.

"Get out of my way Ethan. I am constantly failing to protect my children, and I am sick of it," Diana turned around and grabbed the two swords from the wall.

Emelda shivered to see the black swords in Diana's hands. Unlike Ethan and Diana, only she knew what really happened twenty-one years ago in the forest. She knew what the Skyhall was capable of. Granted Emelda felt the same anger as Ethan and Diana after she heard what happened to Sabrina, but her fear of Skyhall overshadowed her anger towards the vampires and the guardian guild.

For the first time, Emelda felt grateful toward Ghost. If it wasn't for him, Sabrina would have died twice. Although Sabrina told everything that happened to her except the truth about Ghost being the Dark Lord, the three of them knew Ghost was the Dark Lord.

"You didn't fail them, Diana. I did. As a father, as a husband, I failed," Ethan sighed, swallowing the lump in his throat formed due to grief and helplessness.

"Both of you please," Emelda stepped forward,

"Let's talk this through. Diana, you're not Harriet Hunt anymore. She died in Awor. Forget about Skyhall, if the Hunt family knew you are alive, they would be at our doorstep the next moment,"

However, Diana didn't bother to pay attention to Emelda because anger consumed her mind and heart.

"Think about Noah and Rowena. If you go against the Guardians, our secret will be exposed. What do you think will happen next?" Ethan asked Diana.

"You agreed when we told Sabrina not to say a word about anything to Rowena and Noah. Please Diana, stop," Emelda begged Diana. Just like she said, the three of them told Sabrina not to reveal anything that happened to her to Rowena or Noah. They believed if Sabrina told them, Noah would renounce the Guardians and start a battle against them. Which would ultimately result in Rowena stepping in. If Rowena stepped in, the Skyuhall hall would investigate the matter, and as a result, Ghost's identity would be exposed. It could only lead to one thing, the destruction of the Winstons.

To put it bluntly, Sabira was the first domino in the long chain of dominos. The moment she revealed her story, the chain of events would consume everything into a big black hole of war. That was why Emelda and Ethan made her promise not to tell anyone about anything, especially Rowena and Noah.

By making her promise however, they destroyed Michael's plot to set Noah against the Guardians.

"You are missing the point," Finally, Diana's hair turned from striking golden to raven black,

"I am not going against the Guardians. I am going against the elf who orchestrated everything,"

As she said, Diana took a step forward, unleashing powerful energy that forced Ethan and Emelda a few steps back.

Seeing Diana in black hair and dark robes, Emelda shivered from head to toe. Once upon a time, an entire continent feared her. Then, after two decades, what Emelda thought she buried returned alive to haunt her.

"Remember the words you said before leaving Awor Ethan. You made a promise to always stand by my side. Do not break that promise now. Step aside," Diana coldly said as Ethan saw a blue light flickering in her eyes.

"Diana, please..."

Boom!

Ethan tried to change her mind, but he was sent crashing onto the wall behind by a strong gust of wind.

"I am sick of you two trying to change my mind!" Diana roared before stomping the ground with enough force to shake the entire room. The wall crumbled, and cracks formed where Ethan hit before falling down. Afterward, Ethan couldn't get to his feet. Not because Ethan was hurt physically but because he was hurt mentally.

This was the first time Diana had cast a spell on him in a long time. It was equal to her raising her hand against Ethan.

"Ethan!" Emelda quickly rushed to Ethan to lift him up while Diana walked towards the window and opened them with a wave of her hand.

"Diana!"

Emelda shouted, but it was too late as Diana flew out the window. However, before her figure disappeared, Sabrina opened the door.

Unfortunately for Diana, Sabrina saw her figure. For a few moments, Sabrina just stared at the open windows. Only then did she notice Ethan on the ground,

"Father!" Sabrina dashed at Ethan and quickly helped him up.

"What happened? Was that mother?"

"NO!" Emelda immediately shrieked, denying the truth.

Ethan on the other hand, just remained in silence. He was too shocked to focus on anything. Even after getting blasted by Diana, Ethan didn't feel any anger toward Diana. Instead, he blamed himself for being weak and powerless to help her. Noah had tried to make Ethan stronger by making him break through to the Core Strengthening stage. Ethan had been stuck in Core Formation level 10 for seven years now. But no matter how many potions Noah gave him, he simply couldn't destroy the bottleneck. What Noah had no idea that Skyhall placed a curse on Ethan. He was to stay at the Core Formation level until he died.

Ethan was Skyhall's backup plan to control Harriet. However, when Harriet fought the angels and the forbidden spell for thirty days, another group of elders tortured Ethan and placed several curses on his soul. The only difference between Diana and Ethan was that at least Emelda was there with Diana.

"Then where is she? What happened to father?" Sabrina brushed away the dust off Ethan's robes and corrected his collar.

"Go to your room Sabi,"

As soon as Sabrina began to question them, Emelda tried to push Sabrina out of the room, but Sabrina didn't even budge an inch. Emelda did not want to reveal the truth about Diana to Sabrina or to anyone. She would rather die than reveal Diana's secret.

"Stop treating me like a child Aunty. I want to know the truth. I told you everyth,ing and I deserve to be treated with the same respect," Sabrina raised her voice, shocking both of them and snapping Ethan out of the shock.

"That was mother,"

"It was," Ethan took a deep breath and answered Sabrina.

"Ethan!' Emelda quickly tried to stop Ethan, but he shook his head. He didn't want to hide Diana's identity from Sabrina. After all, Sabrina told them the truth, and Ethan wanted Sabrina to know the truth about her mother. The question in his mind was whether to let Noah and Rowena know the truth as well or not.

"She deserves to know Emelda," Ethan said to Emelda and turned his gaze towards Sabrina.

"Your mother Diana is not always Diana. Her real name was Harriet, Harriet Hunt,"

"What?!" Sabrina's heart skipped a beat as she began to shiver.

"Harriet...Harriet Hunt..." Sabrina's mind completely went back, recalling the stories she heard and lessons she learned from Holy Trident Academy.

Harriet Hunt was a myth...a legend...a war goddess who walked among mortals. To hear Harriet Hunt was her mother and lived as Diana, Sabrina's mind couldn't process the shocking news.

"What have you done Ethan?" tears gushed out of Emelda's eyes as she collapsed to the ground.
