"Jie~ Jie~"
The feeling of returning only solidified as I heard a familiar laughter echoing through the domain.
"You're back, huh?"
I heard a familiar cold voice with a hint of relief.
"Yeah... I'm back, everyone." I said, sitting up. "Not for long, though."
"Mm..."
I stood up slowly, two more familiar figures coming into view.
"Long time no see," I said with a genuine smile.
Zephyr gave a silent nod in response, his usual stoic demeanor unchanged. But I could sense the relief in his posture.
Virion, on the other hand, was already in front of me before I could even blink, his usual small serpentine form hovering around me in lazy circles.
"You've improved a lot, my boy," he muttered, his emerald eyes gleaming with approval as he studied me. His gaze lingered for a few more moments on my face before he smirked. "Tell me, did you meet a crazy bird recently?"
I paused for a moment. Crazy bird? Was he talking about... Lady Nisha?
