Chapter 526: Exposed

"Empty husk? What do you mean empty husk?"

The island that Xra and Diana were on was already as quiet as it could be There was no presence of anything else other than them; but as the tone of Xra's voice started to show her desperation, even the heavy leaves that rustled with the wind see

Even Diana re as Xra's shoulders slowly dropped

"What are you saying, Caitlain?" Xra approached Diana and placed both her hands on her shoulders Diana, however, still remained quiet even as Xra looked her directly in the eyes

Diana didn't need to speak; just by Xra's actions alone, it was clear that she already knehat Diana aze

"No… no," Xra shook her head as her grip on Diana's shoulders tightened, "That's not true, no…"

"" Diana could really only close her eyes and take in a deep breath; not because she did not want to see Xra crying tears of blood, but because her plan would now most likely fail

Diana surrendered to the Grand Militia because she could always escape fro the collar on her neck was probably thethey could do, after all—Diana helped in the improvements of the collars, and the reason she surrendered to theet one

The collar, after all, is connected like a web of strings It's connected to other collars, it's connected to each and every device of the Grand Militia, and it's connected directly to the server of the Grand Militia itself

They just gave Diana free access to completely freeze their entire operation

And the reason she was digging through the ground…was to access one of her labs that is clearly still not compromised by the planet What she did not expect, however, was the arrival of an entity that she has not seen for thousands of years

She could just conore her and tell her what she wants… but Diana was truly curious as to why she said that she and Riley were the same There was also the fact that Xra can truly help Bernard with absorbing the Guardian Force

"Please, Caitlain… tell ain focused on Xra, only to see her face filled with streaks of blood But finally, after another breath, Diana finally opened heryou've been carrying on your shi+p is nothing but space dust and the dying energy of a fractured dying star"

"No…" Xra shook her head, causing some of the blood on her face to splash away, "He reacts to me, Caitlain He reacts to le day and—"

"Because you're a conductor, Xra The energy stretches toward you in an atteone, Xra"

"No," Xra forced a chuckle as she once again shook her head, "Then hy didn't you tell me before? You… you were my friend, Caitlain"

"Because I needed your help in breaking through the Guardians," Diana sighed and closed her eyes, "I already knew… I knew at first glance that there was nothing in—"

"You… gavethat kept you going, Xra," Diana looked Xra in the eyes, "You would have just wasted your life away"

"I do not have life, Caitlain!" Xra pushed Diana away as she screa from her back, "I do not have life without my Akkamesh!+"

"" Diana could really only look away

"Akkarasped her head as her knees fell to the ground, "My dear Akkamesh… Akkamesh"

"Xra, the Grand Militia is on their way back here because they heard you You need to go"

"You… you used me," Xra then turned to look at Diana; her red eyes, al with all the blood on her face, "You were my friend, Caitlain"

""

"You… you even found my home planet and you didn't tellthere to revive Akka to revive"

"You… you resurrected Riley's biological mother, didn't you? He told me, he told me hoerful she was She was more powerful than Akkamesh and you resurrected her"
