The strange man stood there, not moving away from Adrian’s path. His expression carried a light, teasing mood — like someone deliberately trying to draw Adrian’s full attention. The still air between them thickened, and the gentle drizzle painted the stranger’s face with glimmers of wet light, giving him an almost unreal presence. With a skeptical look, Adrian resolved to step out of the car. He wanted to see for himself who this person was — this reflection of him standing under the rain. It was strange, because Adrian had never known, or even heard whispers, that he had a twin who looked exactly like him. And now, the man’s calm, knowing expression only deepened Adrian’s unease. It couldn’t be mere coincidence. Could it? From every visible feature — the hair, the sharp eyes, the measured calm — everything mirrored his own reflection. It brought him to one wild, unsettling conclusion.

Kaelithar was a bit taken aback by the question. It seemed to have come faster than he expected, and he had to pause for a brief moment before answering. “Ahh… yeah,” he finally said. His vague response only made Adrian more curious. Was that supposed to be an answer? he thought, his brows furrowing slightly. “Actually,” Kaelithar began again, his tone lighter now, “I’ve always been watching you — for a long time. I’ve wanted to come to you in person since childhood, but I knew your father wouldn’t believe I wasn’t sent as a spy to kill him and his people. You know how those old ones are — always too serious, suspecting everything that moves.” He chuckled softly, the sound easy and playful, as though he were talking about something far less dangerous than betrayal and suspicion. Adrian found himself forming a faint smile. The rain had stopped now, leaving only the cool scent of wet earth in the air. The two of them stood beneath the dim silver glow of the moon, its light threadi

Adrian didn’t need to explain himself to Steve anyways. Steve was only curious, and he wouldn’t start to ask questions while the new guy was here.His only curiosity now was the fact that the person was almost to identical to Adrian, and though he can’t yet say he’s sure if Adrian has a twin or not, he’s definitely sure he’s never heard of or seen this person before. So there must be another explanation for everything, but that’d be later.With the thought of asking Adrian any question he wanted to ask later, he resolved to making a neutral expression. At least he wouldn’t want to be impolite to the visitor they have now.“Steve, this is…” Adrian said as he pointed at Kaelithar.But just before Adrian could complete his sentence, Kaelithar quickly interrupted him.“Hah, my name is Kaelithar, nice to meet you.” With a big bright smile, Kaelithar reached for a handshake with Steve.Steve, seeing this gesture, quickly saw the difference between the two immediately.He could tell that Kae

Adrian knows that with his Kareth suddenly leaving him in the dark and nothing left for him to do to activate it,it’d be a lot of trouble for him having to face the danger coming his way any moment soon.After he’d learned of Boone and Tyson being together on this same continent, it only meant one thing.Before now, Adrian had relied on his Kareth power in so many ways that he didn’t feel like anything was a threat to him at all.But right now, he’d not be able to protect Steve and the others, so it’s best for him not to get them into this situation anyway.“I think it’d be best if we all return home,” Adrian said at once, as if not wanting his voice to shake.And for a moment, Steve felt like the words hit him differently.He’d always thought it was the right thing if they left this world as he’d phrase it since they’ve a lot of differences compared to their homeland and returned to their home without causing any trouble.But right now, he realized he also saw this place as home, an

The evening was going just fine, and the air was filled with that freshness of laughter and excitement.The chandelier above them hovered in its brightness, lighting the evening and spotting every smile on their faces as if to highlight the moment of union between them.The faint scent rising from the table gave a subtle, soothing breath to the atmosphere. Even Amanda, who seemed to be the lonely one with no family to return to after the whole of the Voss had been erased, still felt like she was home—with people who truly cared about her.Seralyth, after learning of Amanda’s experience—of just being a young lady now with no family—made sure to be as friendly as possible. Fortunately, Amanda found her to be a caring person, and she was starting to love how everything was going.And she knows that she would miss precious when she leaves with her parents.Although it wasn’t unusual that she’d miss her family, she still felt that they were never good people in the first place.
