King Augustus Brave has summoned the three Elite Mages, to discuss the situation at hand.
King Augustus Brave: Thank you all for defending me and this kingdom from those, Demons. But it isn't over yet, as you know, during the attack, someone or something got into our vault, and stole the Voidstone. (The King explained)
Suddenly, Leon falls to his knees before the King.
Leon Chronos: I'm sorry my king, I should have seen this coming! (Leon said)
King Augustus: Think nothing of it, Leon. Even with your foresight, you can't predict everything.
Gwenevier Topaz: Wait, you have foresight? (Gwenevier asks Leon in surprise)
Leon Chronos: Yeah. (Leon bluntly answers)
Mr Perfect: I had my suspicions. Judging by the way he fights, it's obvious he can see the future, but to an extent.
Gwenevier Topaz: Well ok then. How far into the future can you see? (Gwenevier asks Leon curiously)
Leon Chronos: Hmm, let me think. If I sleep for an hour, I can see about thirty minutes into the future of my day. (Leon explains)
Gwenevier Topaz: Wait, you see the future by sleeping?!
Mr Perfect: That explains a lot.
Leon Chronos: I don't see the future, to be precise. I experience different possibilities of the future in my dreams. (Leon explains)
Mr Perfect: (Thinks for a moment) The Demons might have known about your foresight, so to hide their true objective, they set up two diversions. The first was the attack on us, and the second....
King Augustus: The attack on me... I have already sent word to the rest of the Elite Mages, they have orders to find the Voidstone, and whoever took it. Perfect and Gwenevier, I want you to join the search as well.
Leon Chronos: What about me?
King Augustus: I want you to stay here and train the New Mages. We may need them on the field sooner rather than later.
Leon Chronos: Yes my king. (Leon said with a bow)
King Augustus: Dismissed.
*****
As the Elite Mages leave the castle, Gwenevier stops Leon in his tracks.
Gwenevier Topaz: Wait a minute Leon, I have one more question.
Leon Chronos: What is it? (Leon asks)
Gwenevier Topaz: Can you see further into the future than an hour?
Leon Chronos: Yeah, but ** (Chuckles)** It's bad for my health. (Leon replied with a nervous smile)
Mr Perfect: Of course... Oversleeping is bad for your health. (Mr Perfect said sarcastically)
Leon could see further into the future, but that would require the power of EON. But the power also reduces his lifespan... It's a secret that he refuses to tell anyone, mostly because he didn't want anyone to know.
Leon knew about Mistress Copy's attack beforehand, but he didn't know all the details, just that they would attack. Changing the future he sees is always risky, one out of place move and the future he saw could be altered, possibly becoming something even worse than before.
Leon doesn't make changes until it's absolutely necessary. Like stopping Knightmare from successfully killing the king, which was the future he wanted to change. Had he known that there was more at play, he would have tried to stop the theft of the Voidstone. But it was now too late, and someone had the Heart Kingdom's half of the Voidstone.
But after using EON to beat Knightmare, Leon saw a vision of the distant future. It shows him and a monstrous version of Lance Grey, fighting a Great Demon in the Soul kingdom, which was in flames.
Leon Chronos: I can't let that happen. (Leon said as he remembered the vision, and swears to prevent it)
******
At another location. A fiery Demon roams a forest with the Voidstone in it's burning hands. He smiles as he sees someone approaching him.
Fiery Demon: Glad to see you're alive. How did you survive that attack? (The Demon asked)
Mistress Copy: They don't call me Copy for nothing. (Copy said with a wicked smile)
Next: My Choice.
