Death... and me

Chapter 2112 Old... Friend?

"You seem to be surprised that I know your identities," Spiegel said. "However, you have met my daughter before."

"Your daughter?" Rean and Roan were puzzled. They slowly changed back to their human forms, as it was obvious Spiegel already knew it before continuing the talk. "We've never met any Angels before, at least not in our real form. The first one we ever talked to was just a few months ago."

Spiegel then patted Lisfialia's shoulder with a smile. "It's them, isn't it?"

Lisfialia sighed before she put her needle away. "Father, why must you spoil the fun? Fine... Yes, it is absolutely them, no doubt about that." Lisfialia then looked at the twins once again. "Long time no see, truly a very long time. I've never thought I would meet you here in the Heavens Realm."

The twins looked deeply at Lisfialia, but they still couldn't remember who she was at all. "Have we met before?"

"Oh, right!" Lisfialia's face then began to change right there and then. "You weren't the only ones using a fake appearance, you know?" Finally, it returned to her real appearance. She had long hair, a delicate face but somewhat childish, and three pairs of wings, showing that she was a Space Bending Realm Angel in truth.

Roan looked at her and couldn't help but comment. "Weird, I feel I did see you before, but at the same time, I didn't."

Rean nodded. "Indeed. I have a slight recollection of your appearance, but I just can't pinpoint where we have met before. To be more specific, you carry some semblance of someone I've seen in the past. Just who was it..."

The twins went through their memories, trying to remember her. For a moment, they thought she might have been another reincarnation from Sunkan Planet, but they didn't remember anyone like her from that planet. It was definitely not someone from the Mortal Realm.

Lisfialia laughed as she looked at the twins' faces in deep thought. "Hahaha! Sure enough, you can't remember. Well, that makes sense. After all, I was nothing more than a child when we met for the first time."

When the word child left Lisfialia's mouth, Rean immediately felt like he was struck by lightning. "Aelrie Holamenor!"

Roan's eyes opened wide when that name came out. "Right! You look like her. It's just that you are a lot bigger now."

Aelrie Holamenor has encountered the twins in the past indeed. However, it was truly a long time ago. Considering the time they spent in the Higher Realms so far, it was at the very beginning when they bumped into each other.

Aelrie Holamenor was none other than the little girl who saved the twins' lives all the way back to the Lost Star Realm hundreds of years ago. [Chapters 1341-1344]

When they were flying with Kentucky, they were attacked by an ancient beast called Star Raven. They were absolutely not the thing's match. However, they just so happened to bump into Aelrie, who made quick work of the raven.

She captured the Star Raven like one would capture an ant. She wasn't there to truly save the twins but to find the raven instead. It was nothing but a coincidence that she found the raven while the twins were in danger of being killed by it. She, as a child, wanted the raven as a pet. That simple.

Later, after she separated from the twins, her father came to fetch her, complaining that she shouldn't just disappear like that. Naturally, that father was none other than Spiegel. It's just that the twins didn't have the opportunity to see him before.

"Oh! So you do remember me. Hehe!" Aelrie then waved her hand, which immediately deactivated the protection formation in the room.

[What?!] Sister Orb found it instantly. [We are free to go! If you come inside right now and use the Circuitry Teleport Formation, we can leave this place.]

However, the twins didn't move. First of all, with Spiegel there, he could totally mess up the space around them with his power alone. Last but not least, going into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm meant leaving the entrance right in front of him. A Space-Time Angel probably can damage the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm if he truly puts in the effort. 'Not now, Sister Orb. Let's wait for a safer opportunity first. It doesn't seem like they intend to hurt us for now.'

[Alright, but I will leave the Circuitry Teleport Formation ready for use at any time.]

The twins nodded and focused back on Aelrie.

*whistle...*

Aelrie whistled in the door's direction, which was now clear to see. Right after, an enormous raven came flying inside, landing on her side obediently. "Are these the two you talked about, young lady?"

How could Rean not recognize this guy? "Hey, you are the Raven who tried to kill us back in the Lost Star Realm!"

The raven didn't seem to care, though. "So what? Back then, I didn't have sentience, so you can't blame me for acting on my instincts, alright? Now, show some respect. Also, I have a name. Call me Piro."

Roan just shook his head, not that interested in the raven other than the fact it served to confirm Aelrie's identity. "Whatever. So, what's up with this Lisfialia name?"

Aelrie patted Piro and looked at them. "What else would it be? It was just an alias. I have quite a sensitive identity, so it is not good for others to see me outside."

Spiegel also added. "Indeed, like the Realm of Gods, in a certain Lost Star Realm, which she wasn't supposed to be at a few hundreds of years ago."

"It's such nice weather today, don't you think...?" Aelrie pretended to not hear it. Back then, she was scolded by her father for being there. "Anyway, I don't have a reason to hide in here."

Rean and Roan still have many questions that they will surely ask. However, the most important one now... "So, can we know what is happening?"
