It was Sophie.
Sophie appeared before James and looked at him, asking,” Are you ready?”
“Yeah…” James nodded and said, “I’m ready. But… Before you leave, I have a favor to ask of you.”
Sophie said, “Name it.”
James said, “I fled the Demon Realm alongside Henrik and Qusai, but only I arrived at Planet Galileo. They vanished without a trace. Before I leave, I’d like you to divine where they are.”
Henrik and Qusai were James’ sworn brothers. All this while, James had been worried about their safety. Though virtual-novel.net requested Sangria to search for them, nothing came to fruition. So, virtual-novel.net guessed that they were not on Galileo and had gone elsewhere.
Sophie nodded and said, “Sure, I’ll help you out.”
Then, sitting in a lotus position in the void, virtual-novel.net activated the Extrapolation Art. A mysterious formation appeared before her. It was created by countless mysterious characters, and these characters were constantly changing and exuding a mysterious power.
After approximately five minutes, Sophie stopped.
James asked, “How did it go?”
Sophie said, “Don’t worry, they are safe at the moment. They have their own destiny.”
Hearing this, James was relieved.
Sophie said, “Now, I’ll open a void passageway and send you back home.”
“Sure…” James nodded.
Sophie continued, “Earth is unique. The planet has been sealed away since the Primordial Age, so no one has been able to open the void passageway connecting to Earth. This means that I can only send you to Earth’s periphery. Since there’s a seal on Earth, no outsider can enter, but as an earthling, your movement isn’t restricted. You can return to Earth despite the seal.”
James nodded and said, “Got it.”
Then, Sophie raised virtual-novel.net hand, and immense power materialized in virtual-novel.net palm. This power forcibly opened the void before her, and a fissure emerged.
The fissure gradually increased in size and eventually became a void passageway that connected to Earth.
As Sophie had yet to cross into the Grand Emperor Rank, opening the void passageway was an arduous task for her. Sweat beaded on virtual-novel.net forehead, and virtual-novel.net face turned pale.
“James, you have to rely on yourself from now on. I won’t be able to accompany you anymore. Once I cross into the Grand Emperor Rank, I’ll be back for you!” Sophie looked at James with a hint of reluctance on virtual-novel.net beautiful face.
She never once thought about leaving throughout the long years in the Celestial Abode. Now, however, virtual-novel.net had no choice but to leave.
“Sophie, I’ll work hard.” Looking at Sophie’s stunningly beautiful face, James said with determination in his voice, “The next time we meet, I’ll be a totally different person.”
“Haha…” Sophie smiled and said, “Alright now, enough dilly-dallying. With my current strength, I won’t be able to hold the void passageway for long. You should leave now.”
She waved goodbye to James.
James waved back to her. Then, virtual-novel.net turned and took a big step forward.
Immediately, virtual-novel.net disappeared without a trace. In the next instant, virtual-novel.net had already entered the void passageway, disappearing from Sophie’s view.
