Li Ang was oblivious to these matters before, so he didn't notice her unnatural demeanor. Even so, she had hidden it well for so long, showing her fortitude.
"I want to know, was our meeting purely coincidental?"
Meluna paused, as if contemplating whether her words might anger Li Ang, inciting his fury or disappointment. Her expression remained unchanged, but her eyes, usually unwavering except when concerning swords and battles, now shimmered with unease.
"Yes."
She struggled for a long time before uttering this single word, then cautiously observed Li Ang's expression.
Knowing she lacked expressive capacity, Li Ang didn't press further, instead organizing his thoughts: "Did you first see me in the Creation Wedge, and then sought me out?"
"Yes."
"Because there are many of me, and many Children of the Stars, but you are the only one."
Li Ang pondered her comment and tried asking, "You mean, in different world lines, there are many Meimei, and also many Zoe?"
