466 Fang's Worries (2)
I know that I told Ember and Fang about me being someone who transmigrated into this body, but did I forget to explain to them about the five regressors? I tried to recall if I mentioned it, but other than the times I used Brother Mountain's protection, I don't think I mentioned it at all.
'Well, it's not like I'm keeping it a secret... wait?'
An idea popped into my head as I recalled the others not knowing about the five regressors. I turned to Fang and smiled wryly, acting awkwardly to increase credibility.
"Keep this a secret from the others, alright?" Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only
I started.
"Actually, in my soulscape, there's five souls present. That's not counting myself, of course."
"Five...?!"
Fang was surprised, but quickly looked around as she held her mouth, recalling what I just warned her about.
"Yes. I did tell most of you about me being a transmigrator, right? Those souls were actually the regressors of the original owner of this body."
"Could it be... they're trying to take back the body from Leader? If that's true, then I will...!"
"No, no, no, calm down. They're not doing anything bad to me. On the other hand, they're extremely cooperative and beneficial to me!"
Fang looked like she was about to hop into my soulscape and beat up the five regressors at any moment. But even though they were currently in their weakened state, all five of them were still as powerful as a low-tier god tamer. Fang alone can't beat one, much less all five of them at once.
After that, I started to tell her about all the little things that the regressor did for me. She seemed surprised at first, but slowly she was becoming even more excited, as if listening to gossip.
"So this Tres was married to Goddess Blanc... and Brother Mountain married Fina?"
Our talk slowly drifted as I finished talking about the important parts, and soon enough, we ended up talking about the regressors' pasts they shared with me before.
As we continued chatting, Fang's face slowly recovered its previous energy, with the shadow of anxiety and depression fading away.
However, after a while, she suddenly furrowed her brows.
"But Leader, why should I keep quiet about this from everyone?"
Right.
The things I told her were things that weren't strictly meant to be kept a secret. As such, she probably felt confused when I asked her to keep quiet about it.
To think that a simple chat was enough to push her to achieve what she couldn't before. Maybe that's all she needed—a little breather to relax her nerves.
"Thank you, Leader!"
Fang quickly jumped over, embracing me. Since she was wearing the same clothes as everyone else, a plain white tank top paired with hot pants, I could feel the full warmth of her body and the trembling of her hands as she cried tears of joy.
Although I don't mind staying this way for a while, I noticed that the entrance to her God Kingdom was starting to fade.
"You should enter it now before it closes!"
"Oh!"
Fang quickly lifted her face off of my chest, checking the entrance to her God Kingdom, before turning to my face.
"Leader, come and check it out with me!"
"... Sure."
Is she copying how I accompanied Igni in checking her God Kingdom? I'm not sure if that's her intention or if she simply wanted to take me along, but either way, I'm not going to refuse.
With my hand pulled by hers, we entered the pitch-black portal.
"..."
Did we exit the other side already?
I couldn't tell at all, since my vision was still pitch black. I didn't even feel the usual fluctuation or the soft buzz after exiting the portal. Am I still in transition?
I tried to take a step forward, but I couldn't feel my legs... No, not only my legs. I couldn't feel my entire body! All my senses—my vision, hearing, smell, taste, and touch—were completely unresponsive!
What the hell is happening?!
