Inside the Twilight Manor, the mansion and territory of Loki Familia
"Huh? Astraea did?"
"Yes! They want the executives to keep this meeting a secret!"
This time, it was Riveria who conveyed the message to Loki.
She happened to bump into Astraea this morning, and ask for a visit, but why would they have to talk during late midnight when they can do it in the morning?
...Not, until Astraea arrived in their manor alone during midnight and surprisingly, Agwin resurface out of Astraea's shadow which surprised the executive and Loki herself.
"That's! Laventeinn!" This time, Agwin used his [Alteration] to be the Laventeinn and used his [Shadow Hide].
He left his clone in Artemis Familia's camp for safety measure so he can focus in this meeting.
Hearing Loki's remark, Astraea shook her head "No, Loki, this is my Agwin" at the same time, Laventeinn slowly transforming as Agwin.
"What!? Preposterous!" Loki drifted infront of Agwin and sucker punch him which surprises everyone, even Agwin, enough that he just accepted it.
Loki gritted her molar and said, "You! What did you do to my Laventeinn!?" which Agwin reply with a whisper of 'sorry' using the voice of Laventeinn. But this time, Astraea moved forward, in front of her Agwin and stretching her hands, slapping Loki's hand in return.
"I don't know what Agwin's clone do to you or on your familia, but right now. What's in front of you is the 'real' form of Laventeinn. The owner of him is none other than Agwin"
What?! Finn, Gareth and Riveria couldn't comprehend such speech.
Her words is beyond the normal people could think of. Which, Agwin brushes his chin and only look at them and nodded.
'Owner!?' they thought.
"I am Laventeinn...once, yes. So in his stead, thank you for everything, Captain, Riveria-san, Gareth-san" he said so, with awkward smile.
Gareth slammed his body instinctively towards Agwin who has an accumulated anger since Agwin's arrival using Laventeinn' skin, matters not that Astraea is on his way.
But at this moment, Agwin covers his goddess and reinforce his body using [Qi Reinforcement] then blocked the said dwarf. It was the basics of a cultivator. In which surprises the dwarf who have the strength of a level 5. Not just him though but even the pallum, the high elf and their goddesses is surprised.
"I know it was a touching reunion. I wanted to hug Loki-sama, really. But right now, I am a membr of Astraea Familia. My falna is from Astraea-sama. We will tell you later if you wanted to but right now, there's something that we needed to discuss"
This time, the pallum exhaled long and deep. "We will be your enemy, not until you explained everything. Laventeinn-kun"
"Hehe, I see, captain didn't doubt that I am indeed Laventeinn" Laventeinn, no, Agwin scratches his cheek.
"I did...but I am eager to know everything, I want to know everything, so please tell us. Right here and now. After all, I don't want any animosity between mine and our past member or should I say, the child of Astraea, right?"
"As I thought, my captain---my former captain is a cool-headed fella" The duo smile while exchanging words which made their vicinity's heavy atmosphete to dwindle down a little.
"If I remember correctly, the first time I talk with Agwin all I see is a lackadaisical, bored and brazen man. But this time, he is no more than an arrogant man. As for Laventeinn, he is a hard worker and easygoing. I didn't see any of them on the current you. Now tell me, who are you?"
"Pfft, hahahahaha" hearing the absurd remark, all Agwin could do is laugh. Its awkward that only him is laughing in this room. Even Astraea didn't know why did he even laugh.
"Well, for you guys to acknowledge my existence, I have to look arrogant and intimidating. Equal standings are needed for the strong to acknowledge another, right? If not, I'll let myself be rammed by Gareth-san just now" Agwin replied after.
"Agwin-kun, please tell them directly. I don't intend to interject your hot reunion but I feel a little jealous now" Astraea complained on the sideline.
"My fault Astraea-sama, I got carried away...I really missed them especially Loki-sama and the captain, but sure, enough with it"
After then, Agwin started the story on how he created Laventeinn only to gather information much faster than doing it by himself alone. Then neglecting him in the end then it was the moment where Loki found Laventeinn in an alley.
"It coincides, right. Your existence as Astraea Familia members and Laventeinn' but...how come. How come a clone has its own thoughts? As if he's a whole and completely different person? And a skill bestowal? This is...beyond my comprehension, please give me a break" Finn summarize with few questions. He squizes his temple as if getting a headache.
In the end, they accepted his story. Because right now, besides Agwin is the goddess of justice Astraea for authenticity. If they won't believe her, who would?
"Then Agwin-kun, you really are my Laventeinn? you just absorbed his memory, his experience these past two years?" Loki looked at him. Astraea told her the last time. That sooner or later, the truth and reality will be revealed. She should have to accept it. Where the current reality will be destroyed by the current truth.
"Yes Loki-sama" Agwin stretches his arm but Astraea tugged his side after. "Mou~ this is why I didn't let you go alone" Astraea pouted.
But before she could react again, Loki embraced Agwin, hugging him tight and even caress his back hair.
"Amazing! I thought you killed him! We wanted to raid Astraea Familia and burn them and pry any information for my Laventeinn's whereabouts. But it was you all along. Agwin, I really miss you! you can recreate him right? Go, I'll give him my falna again. Even though you have your memory mixed with him this time. Even if you didn't bestow him your skill this time. So long my Laventeinn will return, I need no more than his presence" Loki hugged him with trembling voice which surprises everyone.
Astraea pouted for the second time as hers and Loki's eyes have met. The latter only stick out her tongue which made the former lock her hands on Agwin.
Agwin at the same time, slowly shook his head in sorrow "I'm sorry Kami-sama. I can't do it. I still have my clone lingers elsewhere, I will use this last charge of my [Alter Reality] for mine and Astraea-sama's benefit. I'm sorry I cannot obey you this time" and followed "This is why I want your power, your knowledge and experience. For us to have the happy ending. This is why I am here with you guys. Please cooperate with us" so he declared. He caress Loki in return and let go of her because Astraea is on his side and this time, hugging one of his arm.
"Hmm, we don't have any choice do we?" The Pallum said in which Agwin nodded rather faintly.
Finn bought the story too, knowing Loki's reaction just now. Although his goddess seemed a bit gloomy after Agwin's last word.
And after connecting all of Agwin's story, adding that he knew what Laventeinn's experience with them. Finn is trying to understand what his mind can comprehend. After all, he is a person who listen to his intuition.
Riveria and Gareth simultaneously nodded and gathers in front of Agwin, then lightly hugged him. Saying "Welcome back" and at the same time "Thanks god you're alive and well. I can't still believe it but really, welcome back", is what they said.
But Agwin looked at Gareth and cracked his finger "Anyway Gareth-san, I just remembered...you wanted to ram Astraea-sama with me the last time right?" with wide anger of grin. Agwin stared at the swearing dwarf.
"Hahahaha, Oh please, give him a break Agwin, I'm sure he's still processing what is happening right now" the pallum laugh aloud. Gareth didn't know if this pallum want to defend him or making fun of him.
But all this time. What the Loki executives current mind is, "Agwin...he's so damn strong!"
