老师你下面太紧了拔不出来

With Yuko and Sofiel as an example, the possibility is high that my other companions were also a reincarnator. Just that their memories about our past life were still locked.

"Yuko… the clingy woman. Zerina, Avelin, Jayna and… Nysia."

So the clingy woman she\'s talking about is Yuko… Err. That could be discussed later.

Aside from Yuko, the four she named were all Orb Holders. Like her.

"All of them?"

"I\'m not entirely sure. However, their names… It\'s the same as how you introduced the women in your life to me in my memory."

Sofiel pondered for a while, trying to recall the things she could remember. And one by one, she listed what she could remember about them. She hasn\'t met them in this life yet but once she started talking about them, there\'s an enthusiastic and longing expression which surfaced on her face.

"Zerina was someone from a Mortal World like me. She was too fond of using two short blades. Oftentimes, we would have duels and even if she won, she would concede the reward of being with you to me."

"Avelin was the most adorable and innocent among us. However, she was often swayed by what she sees from others. I probably influenced her actions back then because of how I kept jumping on your arms which she imitated if she wanted you to notice her."

"Jayna was someone who could be distracted easily because of her overflowing curiosity. She once spent a day admiring cave inscriptions. If you didn\'t come to her side and stop her, she would stay there for more."

"Nysia, the pure maiden. Though she looked more mature than the others, she\'s purer than most of us when it comes to loving you. She\'s like a different person when she\'s alone with you though."

"Yuko, we had a love and hate relationship. She\'s your first woman. I called her clingy woman because she often interrupted me from jumping on you by pulling you to her. But when we were faced against strong enemies, we often fought side by side. Uhm. That\'s all I can remember about them."

The way she described the girls on point on their personality… except Yuko. But if she\'s recalling it from the memory she managed to remember, then it\'s possible that Yuko was like that only to her.

It\'s safe to believe it for now but I want to see her reaction upon seeing them.

"Thank you, Sofiel. I\'ll let them meet you and by then you can confirm if it\'s really them. You see, none of them remembered things from the past. I met them as strangers again. But as you can see, in the end, they ended up becoming my Companions.

If they\'re really someone reincarnated from my past then my guess about the Orbs being arranged is almost certain now. Is it arranged by the Principal himself or there\'s someone or something else at play here? His shadows only surfaced on the last two orbs. He told Nysia that ten years later, I will appear before her and with Sofiel, he gave her the Orb and told her about me.

In any case, once they remembered the memories of their past lives, I will be able to know more about how I became important for Earth.

After a few more questions and clarifications, Sofiel separated from me and excused herself. But before completely letting go of her hold on me, she leaned in and gave me a kiss on my cheek.

Now that she was listed as my Companion, all doubts I had for her story had instantly disappeared. There\'s no point to doubt her anymore after being reconnected to her. Also, she wouldn\'t be listed as one if I didn\'t believe her. I certainly felt that from her. All of what she said and narrated even if it\'s confusing was from her memory and it contained her true feelings.

Moreover, she\'s a Rank 2 Transcendent. The Highest Rank that I\'ve seen and interacted with aside from the sly Principal and the Old Man in Mansion Ruins. And now with the added buff coming from me and all the benefits that the system provided, she\'s more powerful now.

Gaining this kind of ally, the upcoming fight against the Dark World Transcendents will be something to look forward to.

I still have a lot of questions that she could probably answer. However, she left temporarily to reactivate the Concealment Formation of the Floating Island, Aves.

It\'s been more than an hour since the Aves resurfaced, sooner or later, the Noxians will arrive and poke their noses in.

According to Sofiel, despite being secluded for long, she was in contact with the World\'s Will and she was observing what\'s happening inland. That\'s the reason why she instantly knew about my arrival.

Though what she did about leaving the Elementals and the Humans to their own against the Noxians and the Dark World was extremely selfish, her mindset is all on waiting for my arrival that I couldn\'t really blame her.

I could scold her but what\'s the point? The events already happened...

Fleur as the remaining Transcendent of the Elementals also never uttered words of grievance against the Luxians.

"Uhm. Did she really become your companion? Just like that."

Fleur, after her long silence, finally opened her mouth. Everything was observed by her and I\'m sure that if it was confusing for me, it was even more so for her.

We were talking about previous lives. That concept was surely foreign for her but on how serious our discussion was earlier, she kept her mouth shut and waited for her turn.

"Yes, what is it on your mind? You can ask me anything."

"It\'s all confusing, Daisuke. But her eyes that were full of devotion towards you, it wasn\'t fake. Is that how I will feel if I also become your Companion?"

"Not necessarily, her devotion towards me has a reason. It all depends on you but you see, I like you as you are, Fleur. You don\'t need to copy anyone else."

I stood up and sat next to her. Taking her hand on mine again, Fleur\'s eyes went down to it and observed our interlocked fingers. As to what she was currently thinking, I have no idea.

A few minutes later, an enormous surge of energy was released on the islands surrounding.

As soon as we noticed it, Fleur and I stood up and went to the opened window to look at the source of the commotion.

Though I already guessed that it was the Concealment Formation being reactivated, seeing the process of how this huge island could be concealed from the other prying eyes is a learning experience.

The formation might not be as invincible as the Orb of Concealment but for it to cover this island completely, it\'s probably burning a lot of resources. And whoever created it might be on par with the creator of those Traps in the Central Area of the Noxian Capital.

After the Concealment in the form of a Purple Barrier fully formed beyond the Barrier which protected the island, another surge of energy happened.

The whole island shook which could be compared to an earthquake. However, that was just an indication of the movement of the island.

Of course, it wouldn\'t stay at the same place, it had to move or it would be discovered easily.

"Where are they going?"

Fleur pointed at the flying Luxians who had just left the tower. They\'re all wearing identical golden armor as they formed into squads before spreading out to the corners of the island.

"Why don\'t we check?"

While still holding her hand, I pulled her out of the window and flew out of the tower.

Our Transcendent Aura intersected with Sofiel\'s. She was in the basement of the tower where the Cores for the Formations were located. With the input of her own Elemental Energy, the direction of the Movement Formation could be controlled.

When she noticed us, she communicated through a simple Light Elemental Spell which transferred thoughts to us.

According to her, with the activation of the Concealment Formation, the Noxians and Dark World denizens that were scouting it started to launch their attacks on the island.

Though their firepower was low, it was enough to locate the Floating Island due to the barrier deflecting their attacks.

That\'s why Sofiel mobilized the Protectors, the soldiers of The Great Protector Church, to stop them.

Since we\'re already outside of the tower, we just followed one of the squads and saw the ensuing fight against the enemy scouts.

The squad of Protectors went out of the Barrier and engaged the enemies in a neat formation.

Because they were scattered and just thought of marking the Island to not let it go off their radar again, the Noxians and the Dark World denizens dropped like flies against the barrage of offensive Light Elemental Spells from the Protectors.

It was too easy that it couldn\'t be called a battle but just swatting off the flies.

Soon enough, the remaining enemies who wanted to preserve their lives retreated and the Floating Island managed to move from where it was parked.

Different from them that were in a constant battle against the Humans and Elementals, the Luxians still have a huge number of Elemental Forming and Elemental Fusing Realms in their ranks.

That was what Sofiel was being proud of. She preserved the race and accumulated experts.

Aside from her, Sofiel mentioned earlier that the Luxians also have three more Rank 1 Transcendents that she would always send outside to either gather intelligence for her or look for resources to maintain the Island\'s Formation.

However, with this meeting with me, they were all called back and were already on their way home. All for the purpose of meeting me, the Great Protector.
