Chapter 872 Riveria’s Arrival part 2

'I don't see anything wrong with her, but she's still taking her time to recover.', Sakura thought after nursing Riveria for half an hour, 'It might have something to do with her physiology being incompatible with this place, or the level reset that I'd heard about. Either way, I don't have any idea what that could mean, since I've never been on that side so I can only have Kisuke look after her.'

Even now, Sakura was already risking Riveria's health because she still couldn't provide the antibodies she needed due to her weakened state. With that in mind, Sakura decided that she should have a proper place to rest first before anything else. While she could use a room within the Mars base, she couldn't leave the Belial Mansion for too long due to the eyes watching her thanks to her not-so-amazing past. And she can't exactly leave her alone here nor ask someone else to come to this place, compromising its security and secrecy, 'It's a good thing that we always prepare a sterilized room in case of an emergency.'

While Sakura was contemplating her next steps, Riveria once again looked up to her and thought, 'That pale blonde hair... Is she his sister?' Never in her dreams was the Human looking girl a lot older than her, 'But what is this place... It's so bright and white. It's similar to what Tenestra described. Are we inside that tower she's talking about?'

After plotting her next course of action, Sakura gestured for Riveria to stand up and follow her to exit the room, which thankfully, Riveria was able to understand.

Sakura supported Riveria until they reached another room with another set of Teleportation Circles.

It didn't take too long until they'd reached the Belial Mansion.

"How is our guest?" Cleria asked Sakura, who'd just come back after providing Riveria anything she needed and leaving after she had finally gone to sleep.

Sakura sighed as she sat down, "I can only ask Kisuke once he returns to properly check up on her."

"Oh? Even you, who's a medical expert, can't check her?"

Thankfully, there was a silver lining. The only person who had been entering her room and taking care of all of her needs, Sakura, doesn't seem to intend to harm her and would always have an apologetic expression on her face. If not for that, she would have already tried escaping this place.

But just as she sat on her bed, a new visitor appeared out of nowhere, and it was someone familiar, "Ophis!?" She called out to the little girl in an outrageous outfit that suddenly materialized in front of her, "How did you appear here?... Wait... You're Kisuke's companion so it shouldn't be that strange. But you're also here, huh. In that case, it looks like I wasn't teleported to the wrong place."

But the little girl's words only confused Riveria, "...I'm Ophis, but I'm not Ophis. My name... Lilith."

Riveria tilted her head and repeated her name, "Lilith? So you're not Ophis? Are you her twin?"

Lilith went silent to think about her words for a bit before giving up and nodding.

'What a weird way to say you're her twin.' Riveria thought while asking, "But how did you know me? Or did I meet you without knowing you're Lilith?"

Lilith shook her head, "Heard from the other half."

But before Riveria could ask any further questions, Sakura knocked on the door and entered the room while carrying food, "[Riveria-san, your lunch is ready. Hmm? Lilith? What are you doing here?]"

Lilith tilted her head while replying, [...Greeting?]

Sakura placed the tray on the table, [Wait. Could it be that you could understand her?]

Lilith quietly nodded.

Sakura became happy, but only for a moment because it was Lilith. If she were to use her as the translator, she's worried that her words may be conveyed incorrectly so a full conversation about where she is shouldn't happen with Lilith in the middle with her lack of common sense. Even then, Sakura would finally be able to tell her that she shouldn't be worried and Kisuke is coming within a few hours.

Even though she didn't want to, Riveria couldn't help but be excited when she heard Kisuke was finally coming. Whether it's due to her anxiety or something else, Riveria didn't want to think about it, 'I'm going to regret it if I were to think about it. Definitely.'
