Chapter 2742 That's What You Deserve!

2742 That's What You Deserve!
Rean quickly came forward and hugged her. "Rana! Where the hell were you?! How did you end up in this place? Or better, why are you even here?"
Rana looked at the Leviathans outside the residence and spoke. "First, you two should come inside. We can talk more in there."
Rean and Kentucky nodded. "Alright."
The two were led into a living room, the residence itself submerged in water. Yet, the interior was dry, as if protected by an impenetrable bubble that kept the water at bay. The living room was adorned with intricate faerie decorations, and a soft glow emanated from the walls, creating a serene atmosphere. Rana definitely made herself at home in here. Rana then activated a Formation present inside that blocked Divine Senses from entering.
'Sister Orb, what about this Formation?' Rean quickly asked, not trusting just any formation.
[It's fine. It is a real Formation to block Divine Senses. It doesn't have any loopholes.]
Rean was satisfied with the answer and quickly grabbed Rana's arm. "I have my own Pocket Dimensional Realm now. Come inside with me. I have some people you must meet."
"No need. I don't like Pocket Dimensional Realms. Don't worry, this place is safe," she answered. "We can talk without issues."
That wasn't really the reason Rean wanted to bring her inside, but that wasn't a big issue either. "Well, whatever. First, let me bring them out."
"Bring them out?" Rana was puzzled.
*Zush, Zush, Zush!*
Immediately, Hamarlia, Turen, and Roan appeared. Rana obviously recognized Roan. "Long time no see, big brother."
Roan nodded slightly, his eyes betraying a profound sense of relief. The uncertainty about Rana's fate had been a heavy burden on him too. They truly didn't know what had happened to Rana until now, after all.
Rana then looked at the woman and the man. "These Karma Threads... they are even thicker than the Karma Connection I have with Rean and Roan."
Hamarlia was already all tears. "Are you truly her? Are you truly my Rana?"
"This..." Rana's voice trembled with a mix of confusion and realization. "Could it be... you are my mother from Sunkan?" The sudden revelation was overwhelming.
Hamarlia quickly hugged the fairy queen, weeping nonstop.
Yet, Rana couldn't quite share the same feelings. She couldn't be blamed. After all, when she died in Sunkan, she was quite young. She had no recollections of Hamarlia, Turen, or even Rean and Roan. The twins only found out Rana was their sister thanks to the Karma Threads that the faeries could see and manipulate. This lack of memories created a significant emotional distance.
Well, she just let Hamarlia do as she wanted and waited in there until her mother calmed down. "Errr... M-Mother, are you alright?"
Hamarlia finally let go after a few minutes before nodding. "Now that I have my whole family reunited, I am." Hamarlia could see the awkward expression on Rana's face, but she didn't mind. A real connection could be made with time.
Turen sighed and smiled at Hamarlia. "Well, you probably noticed already, but I am your father, Turen Larks. It is good to see you are okay."
Rana nodded, also feeling awkward towards Turen. "It is good to finally meet you two." She then looked at Rean and Roan. "Still, how did you two end in this place?"
"There is something in the Leviathan's land that we need to recover," Rean explained. He then used a Divine Sense Message and told her everything that had happened since they arrived in the Hustis Continent. "And here we are, waiting for the council of Leviathan Elders to gather and have Sonzei fight a Leviathan at the same level as him."
Rana was quite surprised by all of that story. "Sure enough, you two are always involved in some crazy things. Your karma Threads have always been the most chaotic Threads I've ever seen up to this day. They haven't changed at all, even now."
"All of that can wait!" Hamarlia didn't care. "Let's first have a proper family reunion. I want to call everyone!"
"Well, we have time," Rean shrugged. "Olvris already said it will take a few days until the council is put together, so we can only wait until then."
Kentucky, who was still there, was confused about one thing. "Rean, do you remember what Olvris said when we arrived? He said that there were other visitors from outside this place. Since Rana is truly from outside this Dimensional Realm, who is the other visitor, or visitors?"
Rean had to admit Kentucky was right. "Did you come to this place with someone else?"
"Sigh..." Rana couldn't help but remember the things that happened a few years ago. "It is not like I wanted to come inside this Dimensional Realm. Instead, as I was passing by the Mirror Sea, I was dragged here by someone else."
"Someone else?" Rean and Roan narrowed their eyes. They only got to open a passage into this place by coincidence. Before destroying that Island, such a passage didn't exist, so how was Rana pulled inside? "Who was it?"
Rana then approached one of the doors in the residence and knocked. "Senior, could you come out, please?"
"Uh?" A familiar voice came from inside. "Busy. Don't care. Call me another time."
Rean and Roan froze for a moment. They recognized that voice. There was absolutely no mistake, especially for Rean himself.
Rana sighed and looked back. "Well, sorry. When he is like this, there is no telling otherwise. We will have to wait until he wishes to stop his work and come out."
Rean's mouth twitched. "Eh? Hehehe! I highly doubt there is no other way around."
Rana noticed Rean's expression and quickly warned him. "Rean, don't provoke the man. He is truly strong! Even the Leviathan Elders respect him, so we should truly wait."
"Don't worry," Rean patted Rana's shoulder. "It won't be me who will force the guy out."
Rean then connected to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm and passed a certain message to a certain woman in there.
*Zush!*
Immediately, a middle-aged woman appeared in front of the door. Her expression was absolutely terrible, seeming ready to explode at any moment. "Is this one?"
Rean quickly pulled Rana with him and took a few steps back, feeling scared himself. Even a Semi-Celestial wouldn't be as scaring. "That is definitely the right door."
The woman nodded.
*BOOM!*
Immediately, she blasted that door into countless pieces with a kick. The formation prevented anyone from prying inside, but the door itself was also made of normal corals, not something that could hold the power of a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator.
The man inside obviously noticed when someone destroyed his room's door and was enraged. "Who dares to-" He began to speak as he came out of the room, ready to kill the culprit. Yet, he wasn't even halfway through his words when his expression changed from deep anger to absolute fear!
"Kneel!" The woman spoke with an authoritative and cold voice.
"Yes, my love." And so the man, a Peak Stage Divinity Realm Expert, someone literally NINE REALMS above in cultivation, kneeled with his head glued to the ground. The fear on his face only increased.
'Hmph!' Rean snorted in a low voice. 'Father, that's what you deserve!'
The woman and then the man were none other than Rean's Father and Mother from Planet Earth, Romario and Juliana. The long-awaited reunion was finally happening.
Even I am scared, and I'm the one writing... >.<
