"Brother...?" Saria speaks in disbelief, her eyes wide with shock.
"Hello Saria, it's been 300 years since I last saw you," the man waves his hand and smiles terrifyingly. His smile sends a chill down my spine. Did he just say 300 years? How old are they?
"You should be dead!" Saria shouts angrily, her fur bristling.
"And you're wrong, I'm very healthy right now," he says, taking slow, deliberate steps towards Saria. She slowly takes a step back, her eyes never leaving him.
Noarin steps in front of Saria. "Hello sir, don't you forget about us, please," her voice steady despite the tension in the air." Who are you?" she asks, her eyes narrowing.
"Ah, where are my manners?" The man stops, a mocking smile playing on his lips. "Let me introduce myself. My name is Belzad, Saria's most beloved brother." He bows theatrically.
"Most beloved my ass, you killed mom and dad for your own purpose!" Saria shouts again, her voice trembling with rage.
"And thanks to that I can continue my research freely," he laughs maliciously, the sound echoing eerily.
"What is your purpose in opening a breach? Why do you spread ornaments in this world?" Saria demands, her voice filled with a mix of anger and desperation.
"My goals have never changed, sister," he says, pointing at Noarin. "To find an 'Absolute'..."
"What are you talking about..." Noarin asks, confused, glancing between Belzad and Saria.
"Oh, Saria didn't tell you?" Belzad turns to Saria, his tone dripping with mock disappointment. "You are so mean sis, you know I have been searching for it all my life. But you hid its existence and want to have it for yourself."
"I'm not like you, brother. You just want to use the Absolute to create more chaos!" Saria's voice is firm, but I can see the pain in her eyes.
"Chaos is great, you know? We can see the purity and true nature of the human heart!" Belzad laughs again, his eyes gleaming with a maniacal light. This man is a mess.
"No one from our world can use the Absolute to its full potential. I was about to give up when I accidentally sent one of my ornaments to this world. I let it go, since ornaments can only travel between worlds once, but then I saw the ornament awaken, and it became The Absolute!" He continues, his voice rising with excitement.
"And that's why you are sending more ornaments to this world..." Saria mutters, the realization dawning on her. Belzad smiles, a sinister grin that promises nothing but trouble.
I don't understand anything about what they are talking about. The Absolute? What is that? What has it to do with Noarin?
"Now I have to do one last thing before I can take the Absolute," Belzad snaps his fingers, his eyes gleaming with a malevolent light. Tempest suddenly runs towards me and attacks, his movements swift and deadly.
