Young Aether blinked in mild surprise when he saw her. For a moment, he simply stared, as though his mind refused to accept what his eyes were telling him.
"Lia?"
The word had barely escaped his lips before she leaned forward and pressed a soft kiss against his lips.
She pulled back with a bright, almost childish smile, her eyes filled with crazy affection.
"Your Mommy~"
"..." Young Aether blinked again, "How did you get here?"
Lia tilted her head, "Of course... our love brought me here, dear~" as if that was an obvious fact!
"..." Young Aether parted his lips, but no immediate response came. He honestly had no idea how she had managed to reach this place without being killed by the portal.
After a moment, he asked, "How did you find me?"
Lia stared at him for a few seconds, remembering what had happened after she arrived in this Empire.
