Ethereal Ascendance: A Journey of Transformation(1-3VOL)

Vol 3/ Chapter 84 - Reckless Behavior

"Is it true that Michelle looks exactly like me?"

Cyra suddenly changed the topic and asked me.

"Didn't you see it for yourself? Why are you still asking?" I was a little confused, not knowing what her intention was for bringing this up again.

"Even though I heard from you that the red-haired twelve-winged angel is Michelle, I still didn't get a clear look at her face because she was too far away the whole time," Cyra explained, lowering her eyes.

"Come to think of it, you mentioned this before, but it never felt very real to me, so I didn't pay much attention. It wasn't until Juliet and Gwen saw me and were scared to death that I truly felt the strangeness of it all..."

"Do you think this is all just a coincidence?"

"Well, this..."

I didn't know how to answer, not expecting her to ask such a question. After all, I couldn't find any common ground between her and Michelle. At least based on the information I had so far, I could only explain it as a coincidence.

"Never mind."

Seeing my awkward expression, Cyra didn't say anything more either. She just turned her head to look out the window.

"Perhaps there is a reason we came to this world. Everything is the will of the Lord. He is waiting for us somewhere in this world..."

I wasn't sure if I was seeing things, but it seemed like a few sparkling tears appeared rarely in the corners of her eyes.

I was suddenly at a loss, never having seen Cyra like this before. I didn't know how to comfort her.

I had always felt that she was an optimist. Whether it was in high school, or after crossing over, she was always bouncing around getting into trouble. Even after I tore out half the feathers from her wings, she just complained for a bit and soon returned to normal.

I didn't understand why she was reacting so strongly just because her wing was temporarily damaged. Was it because of Norma's death? But that didn't seem right either! After all, she had said it was just a fling between them, consensual. Could it be... she had truly fallen for her?

If that was the case, it would be troublesome. Angels' bodies disappear when they die, so even if there was a resurrection technique, it wouldn't work!

"Um... people die... I mean, angels can't be brought back to life after death, so you better mourn and restrain yourself!"

Thinking of this, I could only stiffly say some words of comfort.

"Besides, souls can be reincarnated in this world. Maybe you two will meet again someday, just with a different relationship."

This sounded a bit familiar...where had I heard it before...

"Meet who again?"

Cyra didn't understand and turned to ask me.

"Norma of course!"

I answered matter-of-factly. Who else could it be but her?

"What does Norma have to do with anything?"

She carefully recalled my words and immediately reacted.

"Oh... that's what you meant! Don't worry, I already got revenge, so I'm over it now!"

"??????"

I was filled with question marks. This didn't seem like the right reaction...

"You're not sad anymore?"
