At that moment, Wise felt an inexplicable chill run down his back. With his rich experience, he knew exactly who that chill was coming from. He glanced at the two women staring at him, then continued to question the two sisters in front of him. "Although you say that, I have no memory of it. Could you please describe the scene of our first meeting?"
It was normal for Wise not to have any recollection. After all, who could have imagined an Ethereal suddenly turning into a person?
The two sisters sitting opposite each other exchanged a look. A hint of disappointment appeared on both their faces, clearly because Wise had forgotten them. But they weren't discouraged by this. Taking turns, they began to describe their first meeting.
"At that time, I was dancing because I heard music. Right, it wasn't just you; this young lady was there too. At that time, she even fought me with other people," the younger sister's sudden statement left Ellen at a loss. She had no memory of it either. Besides, she had no reason to randomly attack someone. Could she have been sleepwalking?
Ellen was puzzled, but Wise suddenly fell silent, as if he had remembered something.
Next was the older sister. Her version of the first meeting was when the two of them were about to dance, and Wise and others came before them. At that time, she was originally going to avenge her sister, but Wise's appearance made them lose their focus in an instant, as if their minds had been completely transformed.
"That's right! At that time, you even promised to give us a new sound system, but when we woke up, the sound system had already been destroyed by those little dogs," the younger sister said, gritting her teeth. Although those little dogs later volunteered to help them with experiments as compensation, she was still so mad!
At this point, Wise, Belle, and Ellen, having heard all this, fell silent. They couldn't quite figure it out. In the end, it was Wise who spoke.
"Pardon me for asking, but did we first meet at the Balai Building?"
"Eh, yes, yes, yes! It seems it was in a big building. But we've forgotten what it was called."
Hearing the girl's words, both Belle and Ellen had looks of disbelief and uncertainty. They found the situation hard to believe. The two sisters in front of them spoke with such conviction that they didn't know how to judge, so they could only turn their gazes to Wise.
The latter was silent on the surface but was communicating with the system in his mind. 'System, can you explain what's going on?'
A moment after Wise asked, the system's voice appeared. 'Uh, my dear Master, about that... it's actually very simple. Master, you know about your constitution, right?'
'I know, but what does that have to do with this?'
'Alright, then let me explain it to you this way. Simply put, your constitution, plus a charm value as high as 200... The combination of the two, plus your direct and prolonged contact with the twin Ethereals before, naturally had an effect that needs no further explanation. It directly stimulated their desires. But as Ethereals, they didn't have the capacity for that, so this power, like a law of nature, naturally transformed their bodies...'
Hearing this, Wise was surprised at this application of his constitution, but all this couldn't be explained away so easily. 'I get the principle, but why did they turn into this? And how can they leave the Hollow?'
'Uh, about that...' The system sounded a bit embarrassed, then its tone became humble. 'I'm sorry, Master. I took matters into my own hands. The thought of two girls who had fallen deeply in love with you being unable to realize their admiration because of their appearance and their inability to leave the Hollow... it was just heartbreaking.'
'So that's why you made the situation like this?'
After a lecture from Wise, the system sincerely apologized, but he knew that even so, this system would definitely do it again next time. For now, he decided to ignore it and focus on the situation at hand.
The twin sisters were still blinking at him, their gem-like pupils shimmering with excitement. In their eyes, Wise had already remembered them.
However, Wise first asked them to wait a moment and turned to explain the situation to Belle and Ellen. Since he couldn't reveal the existence of the system, he could only attribute everything to his strange constitution. The two of them had known about this before, but upon learning that Wise's constitution could even turn an Ethereal into a human, an indescribable look of astonishment still appeared on their faces.
"But their situation is quite special. This is a low-probability event, so please don't reveal this matter to anyone."
Hearing Wise's words, both Belle and Ellen nodded in unison. They also knew how serious this matter was. After all, because of his constitution, the Ethereal sisters in front of them had not only turned back into human form but could also leave the Hollow. If this matter were exposed, Wise would inevitably be captured for research. At that point, it would probably be difficult to even see him again. To prevent this from happening, both of them naturally had to keep it a secret. Wise was also very confident in them. His honesty and trust moved both of them.
Returning to the Ethereal sisters, they didn't need to be deliberately reminded. After all, the system had said it had already imprinted the message 'cannot expose one's Ethereal identity' into their subconscious.
Wise tried to call up the panels for the two sisters in front of him, and they actually appeared. Besides both having an affection level of 100+, there were also their names.
The older sister was named Aurelia Nymph, and the younger was Odette Nymph. Their Ethereal name was the Stygian Nymph Twins.
However, after Wise told them their names, both sisters froze on the spot, as if time had stood still. Then, tears began to stream from the corners of their eyes.
Wise didn't say much. He just stepped forward and gently embraced the two sisters. They, in turn, seemed to have found their support and leaned against him.
In fact, as soon as he learned their identities, Wise had asked Fairy to search for other rumors about that building. Among them was the news that guests in the building had heard a broadcast telling them to hurry to a shelter. It seemed now that they were the ones who made that broadcast. They were the first to sense something was wrong, yet they didn't flee immediately. Instead, they chose to save more people, which ultimately led to their own failure to escape.
They were so kind-hearted; they shouldn't have ended up as Ethereals wandering the building. Although they had lost their memories, at least now they could leave that Hollow.
