Chapter 495 Anges Family Reunion
Lily wouldn’t have drunk that liquid even if someone threatened her life, but since Ange was the ones asking it, she didn’t hesitate.
For her, nothing that Ange said could be wrong, so if she asked her to drink something, she would do it.
Lily didn’t feel anything after drinking it. The liquid was tasteless and odorless.
However, Ange saw that Lily’s talent had improved a bit. It was still a bad talent, but for someone with such a low talent, every bit of increase was something great.
After Lily drank it, Ange patted her head.
"Let’s go."
Ange spoke, and both started to travel again.
That night Lily slept very quickly due to the effects of that liquid because she had yet to absorb it all.
Ange cast a barrier surrounding the place where Lily was sleeping and walked alone for a while before speaking.
"Father, mother. I know that you are keeping an eye on me. I recovered my memories and surpassed my previous life, so I want to meet you again."
Although she always acted like a big sister, her voice seemed more that of a little girl at that moment.
She had missed her parents a lot, but she wasn’t sure of when she would be able to meet them again until she recovered her memories.
Thus, after having recovered her memories, she used the first time she was alone to call them. She was sure that Yale and Lina had been keeping an eye on her.
A minute later, Yale and Lina appeared in front of her, but they were only incarnations.
However, Ange didn’t mind that they had only sent incarnations instead of going there personally because she jumped to hug them with tears in her eyes.
It didn’t matter how many years passed; she was still a little girl in front of her parents.
Yale didn’t want to interact with Ange too much for fear that she discovered about the war, but he was unable to restrain himself when Ange left Lily behind and asked to meet him.
Yale and Lina returned the hug to Ange. There had been more than a hundred years, but they were finally reunited.
Ange spoke a lot with them, but there wasn’t anything that Yale and Lina didn’t know from before.
Yale had been sometimes in seclusion, but Lina had always been keeping an eye on her even while doing other things.
"Father, I just noticed it after recovering my memories, but Lily’s soul was created by you, right?"
Yale wasn’t surprised that Ange noticed it.
"She is one of the hundred souls I created to research fate, but I haven’t interfered with her at any moment, nor I plan to do it. She has her own life."
Yale didn’t plan to hide the truth about Lily.
"As I expected... I know that she can’t be acknowledged publicly as my sister, but for me, she is my cute little sister. I know the difficulty she has for being a newly created soul, but I will help her to surpass those shackles. I hope that you aren’t angry about that, father."
Ange knew that her actions were affecting Lily’s fate, so it might affect Yale’s research.
"The fact that you accepted her as your sister was also fate. You can do whatever you want."
The three of them spoke until dawn when Ange returned to Lily’s room.
Lina dissipated her incarnation, but Yale teleported to Gerken’s place.
"It has been a long time."
Gerken was quite happy when he saw Yale. He had seen that Yale and Lina went to see Ange, but he didn’t want to interfere with their family matters.
"Just a bit more than a hundred years, not that long."
Hundred years couldn’t be considered long for people like them, but it was a whole lifetime for mortals.
For Ange that could have been considered a long time, but for people like Yale and Gerken, it wasn’t.
"I know. It is just a way to speak."
Gerken laughed.
"I want to check again that cloak of yours. I made significant improvements, but I am on a bottleneck."
Yale had some enlightenment about how to progress, but he felt that checking that cloak again would improve his chances a lot.
"No problem."
Gerken didn’t hesitate in giving the cloak to Yale.
"Thank you. We are already running short of time, so I need to go all out. Sixty years and the seal will break."
Yale started to analyze the cloak after speaking, but Gerken was serious after hearing those words.
That war would decide if their universe would be able to survive or not, so it was something very serious for him.
However, Yale didn’t feel that the universe could really be destroyed. He felt that he could die, or anyone else could die, but that the strangeness of fate would prevent the universe from disappearing like happened in that set of memories from another time.
In fact, it was due to those memories that Yale knew exactly when the seal would be opened. Others just knew an approximate date.
After several hours Yale finished and gave back the cloak to Gerken.
"I am going to participate in this war. Let me join your plan."
When Gerken received the cloak back, he spoke with resolution.
He had been thinking about it, and since Ange had already turned powerful enough for being the second strongest person on the planet, she was just weaker than Gerken himself. Thus, he decided that there wouldn’t be any problem even if he left.
Gerken was also quite near to a breakthrough, but the Ice Essence was being his main problem. If he managed to solve that, his power wouldn’t be lower than an Origin God, so his power wouldn’t be too low compared with others in the war.
"Understood. I will be counting with you. Let me help you with the Ice Essence first. The stronger you become, the better."
For the next half year, Yale had been instructing Gerken to learn the Ice Essence.
Gerken wasn’t very talented on the Water Essence. He had mastered the Water Essence because he had lived a lot of years and always trained hard, but without Yale’s help, it would have been almost impossible for him to master the Ice Essence.
Yale felt that the Metal Essence would have been better for Gerken, but although Gerken’s talent in the Earth Essence was better than in the Water Essence, he wasn’t too talented either. Thus, since Yale was better teaching the Ice Essence, he taught that one to him.
Moreover, Gerken had also put more focus on the Ice Essence because he couldn’t allow his disciple to learn it before him or it would be too humiliating as a master.
Yale’s incarnation left after Gerken successfully became a fourth level immortal.
On the next years, Yale had been focusing on creating clothes, and his results were far better than before. Although he couldn’t create clothes that would hide their presence completely, he managed to create ones that could change the presence and auras at will. In other words, those clothes would allow them to emanate the same aura as the people on the other universe and even make them mistook their levels, which would be extremely useful for the infiltration.
Yale lost the count of how many sets of clothes he created, but he continued without stop because the success of their mission relied on those clothes.
Five years before the seal broke, Ange was requested to return to the heaven Academy, and she brought Lily with her.
That day she was appointed as the vice-dean because Gerken said that he needed to go on a travel for some time and wanted to leave Ange in charge.
Of course, no one found strange that Ange as Gerken’s direct disciple obtained that position. Moreover, she was stronger than everyone except Gerken himself, so there wasn’t any complaint.
Lily managed to Reach the Master Rank after those years, which meant that her speed improved, but in the Heaven Academy, her talent was still at the bottom.
However, given that Ange was her big sister, everyone was nice to her.
At that point, Lily had already learned how to change to human form, and despite how strange she felt, she decided to go to the academy looking like an ordinary human to avoid provoking problems to Ange.
She would always turn back to her half-beast form when she was in private with Ange, but no one else had seen that side of her in the whole academy.
"Master, tell me the truth. You are going to battle into a war, right? I can sense that you aren’t just going to roam the universe. You sure too tense."
The day when Gerken was about to leave, Ange spoke to him, which meant that Gerken sighed.
"You are right, but don’t think of coming. This is too dangerous for your level, and my mission is a stealth one, I won’t be battling in the frontlines."
Gerken knew Ange well and trying to lie to her when she already discovered something was useless.
"Don’t worry, master. I don’t plan to join. Lily needs me here."
Ange felt that her master would need a lot of time to return, and if Ange left, Lily would probably be dead when she returned.
"However, I am sure that my parents are also going. I just want to meet them personally once before they go to war. Allow me to fulfill that wish."
