Back where Sunkan Planet exploded, everyone who survived had already left, leaving just an empty space with many debris of the now destroyed world... or so it was supposed to be. However, no one noticed as a small sphere of black and white light took form in the middle of that chaos. That sphere began to accumulate Dark and Light Element until it reached the size of a fist.
[First point of souls connection acquired.]
[Initializing merging sequence...]
The black and white orb suddenly grew a few strands that pierce through the fabric of space. No one knew where these things were connecting to.
[Completed.]
[Initializing Dual Souls Attachment.]
Even more strands came out of the black and white orb. However, this time it didn't pierce through the fabric of space, but spread all around the place.
[One owner, two souls.]
[All connections established.]
[Using one Soul to secure the other.]
[Soul Gem Universal Souls Attachment Completed.]
Right after, everything disappeared without a trace. Not even Rean and Roan knew what happened here.
Back in the Soul Gem Dimensional, Agis had recovered a bit of energy, just enough to sit down once again. However, he ignored the pain on his body as he looked at the people around him.
"Hey, talking ball. Care to explain?"
[Talking... ball?]
Sister Orb began to emanate a dark and white aura as she looked at Agis. In an instant, Agis felt a chill on his back, forcing him to change his words.
"Ahem... I mean, beautiful sphere sister."
[Hmph! That's more like it.]
Sister Orb then looked at Rean and Roan before asking.
[Should I tell them? After all, I believe you'll talk even if I don't, right?]
Rean nodded. He thought that what happened was because of their presence on the Sukan Planet, so they owed the others an explanation at the very least. Malaka and Calina knew about Sister Orb and the Dimensional Realm. Still, they didn't know much about the situation regarding the twins and the Soul Gem System.
Qia and the others then calmed down and looked at Sister Orb.
[Well, then. The story goes like this...]
Of course, there were a few things Sister Orb had concealed. However, everyone could finally understand what was happening there.
Qia and Agis, of course, were the most shocked by it all.
"Rean and Roan were reincarnated? I see... no wonder you were this advanced in cultivation. You always had adult minds from the time you were born. No kid could possibly match an adult's dedication and comprehension."
However, Sister Orb didn't tell that Rean and Roan came from another half of the Universe. That was because other than the three of them, the rest didn't even know what a universe was.
Qia then took a deep breath before asking.
"So, Sister Orb was the one who took your souls the day you died and made you reincarnate in our world or... errr... 'planet'... is it?"
Rean nodded.
"That's... more or less how it is."
Roan glared at Rean but didn't say anything. Well, the only one who died was Rean, not Roan. Rean basically dragged death down with him.
Agis then glared at Rean and Roan.
"All I learned from the explanation is that you two were the culprit for the destruction of our world."
[Aren't you being way too annoying? You better remember that if Rean hadn't taken you in, you would be dead by now. You wouldn't even have the chance to complain to start with.]
Agis wanted to refute her words, but he knew better not to piss off Sister Orb.
*Chick!*
Kentucky was the only one who didn't understand anything. However, he noticed Malaka and Calina's expressions, so he tried to comfort them.
"By the way, Roan. Did you bring Kentucky inside as well?"
Roan shook his head.
"I was too far away to do such a thing. He appeared in the Dimensional Realm by himself."
[The Soul Gem System did. Kentucky has a connection with you two, so he was dragged inside by the same power that the system used to bring you two inside. It was pretty much a coincidence.]
Rean and Roan more or less expected something like that.
Malaka and Calina petted the Minokawa.
"Thank you, Kentucky."
*Chick!*
"What should we do now? Are we going to be targeted again?"
[Didn't you hear what I said a while ago? The Soul Gem System's concealment abilities are powerful. If not because of the artifact spirit, we wouldn't have been found. Don't worry. If the enemy knew where we were, they would have already come after us.]
Agis finally put the matter behind and decided to ask some other things.
"Alright. Since that's the case, I want you to explain to me a few more things."
