Chapter 546: Dunas Touches (1/2)

”You don't seem amazed or concerned after learning I am a Devil's Incarnate,” Duna mentioned with furrowed brows.

Leon smiled lightly before he corrected, ”Oh, don't get me wrong. I am surprised. It's just that compared to what I've experienced and discovered in the past few days, I wouldn't be surprised as much as I would be. But never mind that. Tell me more about your situation.”

Once Leon inquired about Duna's situation for a second time, a rare trace of sadness appeared in her eyes before she gave a soft sigh, ”Fine.”

”I won't go into details on how I was awoken and incarnated as I don't recall much myself. After all, I was only a baby ready to be born with only a fragment of my former self. My memory was fuzzy and unclear...” Duna spoke.

Leon furrowed his brows thoughtfully before he inserted, ”Because you were just an infant with a fragment of your Devil Soul, you were unable to control your laws. Thus, the uncontrolled deathly aura destroyed your fleshly body and those around you, right? How did Lumi survive this?”

”Yes, that is correct. Lumi was gifted with a divine body that made her body adaptable and immune to deathly energy. But as you can guess, the heavens was not fair and did not bestow me the same talents...”

”...Perhaps, the Devil Soul Fragment part of me was meant to incarnate in Lumi's body, but it incarnated into me and slowly eroded my body to death instead. I was prepared to die at that point, but Lumi took me in and saved my life.”

Duna wore a forlorn expression as she recalled the past.

”Lumi shouldn't have the mental capacity to accept your soul into her body consciously. It should have been her divine body absorbing your Devil Soul Fragment due to their compatibility instead, no?” Leon spoke after some thought.

Duna nodded before she said sadly, ”Be that as it may, it does not change the fact I still exist thanks to Lumi and that it was also because of me that she had to suffer... I owe her a lot.”

”That explains why you are the defensive elder sister, while Lumi has developed such a deep-rooted fear and reaction to pain.” Leon nodded in understanding before he sighed.

Being physically abused by her father while growing up, it was no surprise for Lumi to develop a trauma.

It was amazing that Lumi did not bear any resentment towards her father, Yahir Gallagher, after all the abuse she went through.

Perhaps, if she did not have the support of the servants, then her character would have taken a different turn.

'No, wait. It doesn't add up. Lumi was too pure and innocent. There was no way she can remain like this even if she had such mental support from the servants!' Leon thought before he glanced at Duna.

As if knowing what Leon was thinking, Duna admitted with a nod, ”All her negative emotions are swallowed by me.”

That was right.

Even if Duna and Lumi were twin sisters originally, their souls have become one now.

However, Leon suddenly paused his train of thought. That was not right.
