Death… And Me

Chapter 2658  Laweia

"Hum?" Suddenly, two things caught Bunbun's attention. First, Roan began to hold his head as if he was going through quite some pain. At the same time, the familiar smell coming from Roan increased a lot in just a few moments. "Kid, are you okay?"

Rean narrowed his eyes while asking through their Soul Connection. 'Did the Dam finally break?' Roan, however, didn't answer. Things went way beyond his previous efforts of separating the memories and labeling them as foreign. He couldn't even think straight anymore. He completely lost track of anything happening in the world as his mind went blank.

[Rean!] Sister Orb suddenly called out. [The Black Crystal Kafan gave Roan has broken. It is no more.]

Rean was taken aback. They had sealed the thing in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm and agreed to never touch it again. Yet, it broke on its own. Rean could now tell why Roan was like that. 'No wonder Kafan warned us before entering this world. Roan might awake his full memories if he gets in contact with too much of his past, and now the moment finally arrived.'

Seeing Rean and the others silent, Bunbun turned to them. "What is happening to him?"

There wasn't anything Rean could do at the moment other than wait and see the result. "I'm not entirely sure myself. We can only wait for him to stabilize. This is not something any of us can help with."

Bunbun narrowed his eyes. "You can't feel it, but the familiar smell of a Loporrit has increased a lot. It just so happened after he made the question about Kafan and Lolio, so let's be direct here. What is his connection with Kafan and Lolio? And don't come with this bullshit of cultivation technique anymore."

Rean sighed. There were too many clues to say otherwise at the moment. "I would truly like to tell you everything, but I can't... Not that I don't want to, but because I know very little about it. As I said, just wait for Roan to stabilize, and then we will have all our answers."

Bunbun didn't quite like that answer, but it wasn't like Rean's group could escape from him either. "Fine! But you better have a good explanation." To be honest, Bunbun has already begun to make the connections. The familiar smell wasn't just a Loporrit smell, but his good Friend Lolio's smell instead. Not to mention, Roan's greatest reaction came as soon as he asked about Kafan and Lolio's relationship in the past.

Rean checked Roan through their Soul Connection. However, Roan wasn't sharing any memories at the moment. One must not forget that the twins can control when to share memories or not, and Roan was completely blocked. Rean then used his Divine Energy to create a barrier around Roan, just to be sure he wouldn't suddenly go crazy and attack those around him. After all, there was a chance that he would become another person once this was over. It could be Roan there, Lolio there, or a mix of the two by the end.

He then looked at the next walls ahead and noticed something. "Senior Bunbun, can you tell us more about the rest of the story?"

Bunbun just nodded and continued from where he stopped.

Inside Roan's sea of mind, things weren't as chaotic. Roan seemed to wake up there, looking at countless scenes that passed around him. "What is happening here...?" He couldn't help but murmur to himself. He knew he was in his own mind, but he never had such an experience before.

"You know what is happening, so why ask?" Yet, another voice appeared, which shouldn't be possible.

Roan quickly looked behind, and there, he saw a Loporrit. He had black fur, ragged clothes, and a cold expression. "You... are Lolio, aren't you?" Roan was still Roan, after all. He kept his calm and had an even colder expression in this crazy situation.

Lolio walked around and touched the many images that passed by him. His cold expression seemed to crack up a bit when some images of him and Kafan went by, but it quickly returned to normal. "It is not wrong to say I'm Lolio, but it wouldn't be wrong to call me Roan, too."

Roan snorted. "What, just because we are still the same Soul? I'll make things clear. I have no intention of relinquishing my control over my life to you. You already died. You shouldn't be here. You are nothing but old memories of someone long gone."

"That's correct," Lolio didn't deny it as he turned in Roan's direction. "I'm well aware of what I am; you don't need to remind me. Besides, I have no intention of living in a world without her."

"Her?" Roan asked for a moment. However, the images around quickly changed as more memories from Lolio appeared. This time, a new character could be seen. It was also a Loporrit, a yellow-furred one. She had a bright expression akin to the sun. The memories of her smile, her movements, her voice... it all rushed into Roan's mind at the same time. "Laweia..."

Lolio then smiled as he looked at those memories. It was a real smile, depicting the importance Lolio placed on that yellow-furred Loporrit. "The happiest Lopporit you would ever have the chance to meet."

Outside, Bunbun was still speaking. "Kafan and Lolio were truly close to each other. It was as if nothing could separate the two. Kafan was already planning to bring Lolio away with him once they found a way to stabilize the Loporrits' birth rate. Little did either of the two expect the appearance of a certain yellow-furred Loporrit."

Bunbun couldn't help but sigh as he pointed at the wall carvings ahead. There, a new Loporrit appeared. She was also in the few walls Rean could see from his point of view, and she seemed a stark contrast to the cold Lolio. "That's Laweia... Lolio's first love."
