95 Ch. 95 He Is Alive (2/2)

Ba-thump! Hearing that name, Niken's heart pounded. She began to remember the incident earlier when Kazuto came to save her. She didn't want to be a burden and protected all the time. But somehow, when Kazuto protected her, she didn't mind at all.

Niken, who suddenly wanted to meet with the man, was searching for Kazuto's tidal energy. She could feel it. The man's energy's vibe was so overwhelming yet gentle at the same time. It was so majestic, making her wanted to worship him.

Kazuto was outside her room and chatting with others. She also detected two familiar presence.

Who were those two Elementalist? Why their aura was so familiar?

Then two Elementalist knights' faces crossed her mind. Those knights have once been her beloved mother's mentor.

As soon as she remembered them, Niken got up and walked out of her room to meet the two knights. Richard was surprised, yet he followed her from behind.

All eyes glanced at Niken, who had just appeared into the room, but Niken did not care. She only wanted to meet her mother's mentors.

”Long time no see, Princess Xiao Yue.” greeted Lionel, who first noticed Niken.

Niken shed tears as she never thought the two mentors would find her this soon.

”Yes, long time no see... Sir Lionel, Sir Danzel.”

The other knights were still inside the house while Kazuto watched Niken along with two old knights who were chatting outside the home.

”Richard, how could your twin sister be Princess Xiao Yue?” asked Scarlet, who was happy to finally find Xiao Yue, but also felt confused by that fact.

Richard, who got a variety of questions from his friends, especially Scarlet, was at a loss of words. He himself knew nothing at all, let alone about Princess Xiao Yue.

”Sorry, I'm also as confused as you are,” Richard replied in a dull tone. ”But I could tell that you were looking for Princess Xiao Yue's all this time. What is so special about her, anyway?”

”She is your sister.”

”Niken is my sister.”

”Niken is Princess Xiao Yue.”

”…” Richard could not refute Kazuto's remark. It seemed like he still doesn't want to believe that his sister wasn't the one he thought she was.

Shin Ha wondered why Kazuto must provoke Richard, so he decided to interfere and explain to Richard nicely. ”I heard she can reverse the lifetime of an Elementalist. So I was looking for her whereabouts to save Niken. That way, Niken will return to normal as before she got implanted from Kazuto.” Shin Ha glanced at Kazuto, who was looking out through the fully open window. ”Turned out Princess Xiao Yue was Niken all this time. We shouldn't worry if that was the case.”

Then the atmosphere surrounds them has become silent once again. One of them did not care about this awkwardness feeling. She was curious about something else.

Something was bothering Isabella's mind.
