"H-husband? What are you talking about?" Seraphina blushed at mere sound of it.
"Yes. Your husband. You deserve the truth. All of it."
Her heart trembled as his words spilled forth.
"In another life, Seraphina, we already fought side by side. You were not just the Queen of Spirits—you were one of the pillars of my dominion. Together, with others who bore the same fire, we stood as Overlords. Not rulers for vanity, but guardians of balance across the Universe."
Her lips parted slightly, her breath catching as her own spirit resonated with fragments she could not remember, yet could not deny.
"You and I…" Igaris's eyes softened. "We became more than allies. You became one of my life partners, a piece of my soul. We shared laughter, battles, dreams of a free cosmos. You held the Spirit Realm against the floods of corruption, while I shattered empires of false gods. Without you, Seraphina, the balance would never have lasted as long as it did."
