Chapter 939: Kana And Ceilie Part 2
"I"m so sorry…. If I was faster…. You wouldn"t have...." Kana cried out. Causing Ceilie to feel stunned. She never thought that Kana would think she was the cause of her death. Ceilie shook her head and hugged Kana tighter.
"It"s not your fault. Come, let"s get up and go to the palace." Ceilie spoke softly. Kana could only nod her head.
She might now have seemed it, but she had always regretted not being there for Ceilie in her time of need. She regretted not being able to help Ceilie when she needed it the most. And that was why when she saw Ceilie after so long in a ghostly form, she completely melted down.
Ceilie led Kana back to the Palace and along the way they got strange looks because Kana refused to stop hugging Ceilie making her smile helplessly. But she did not mind either. When they got to the palace, Ceilie led Kana into a sitting room and prepared her some sweet soul tea.
"Have you calmed down some?" Ceilie asked as she handed Kana a cup of tea.
Kana nodded as she took the tea. "Mm… Sorry…."
"You do not need to be sorry. What happened was never your fault to begin with. None of what happened was your fault. Neither I nor Nergal blame anyone for our deaths at that time. To be honest, I am just happy I can see you again. My little sister has truly grown up." Ceilie said with a warm smile as she sat next to Kana and leaned her head against her shoulder.
"Hav-Have you been doing well?" Kana asked hesitantly.
"Mmm…. While the paper work never ends, we are living fulfilling spiritual lives here. Angelica lets us do as we please with the palace and makes sure we have everything we need. She is always looking out for our needs. You raised good kids. They are all so kind." Ceilie really missed talking with Kana like this. Her ghostly tears threatened to fall as she did her best to hold them back.
"That day, I almost killed the entire planet. I almost made a major mistake. I owe the old man for stopping me even though he did it in a bad way. But now that I have the life element, even though I am unable to use it yet, I will be able to reconstruct a body for you and sister Nergal. This way, you two can be reborn. Just wait. I promise I will bring you back to life. I will bring the entire world back to life." Kana had planned to bring the world that was destroyed by the insects back to life and revive the entire planet so that it could be lived on once more. Whether Tilia and the others would want to return is another story, but she would allow them to at least have this option.
Kana was unsure if this was a good idea or not, but she decided she wished to do it. But she would first need to find the souls that had died there in order to revive them. How she would do this, she was not sure, but she figured if she could find the insects that caused this and destroy them, maybe she would find a clue.
There were many things she had to do before she finally moved to the sea of stars, but once she was done, she would head to the sea of stars on her next stop to Aurora. She also still owed Old Dan a beating as well.
The two sisters chatted for a few hours until Kana, who had been crying, fell asleep while using Ceilie"s lap as a pillow. Ceilie looked at her little sister, who had truly grown up to become a beautiful girl, and smiled warmly as she gently caressed Kana"s head. "You never change…."
"Cei…." Nergal, who had finally gotten to a decent stopping point, paused when she walked into the room to see Kana sleeping peacefully in Ceilie"s lap and smiled. She walked over and sat on the armrest of the couch, and put her arm around Ceilie"s shoulder. "She is smiling."
"Mmm…. But she still blames herself for what happened." Ceilie said softly. Nergal"s brow wrinkled as she reached out and gently poked Kana"s cheek.
"She should know what happened was not her fault," Nergal whispered.
The two sat there in silence, gazing upon the sleeping dragon girl with warm gazes. Having a family like this was truly amazing. It filled them both with a warmth they had not felt since they were alive.
Angelica, who had watched the reunion from start to finish, wiped her eyes. She never thought her Mama was repressing so much anguish still. She hoped now her Mama could feel a bit more relief. Maybe this will even benefit her on her road to becoming even more powerful.

While Kana was spending time with her sister, Ako was currently having a headache. All this time, she had peace and quiet thanks to her master, but now an annoying fly had appeared and would not leave her alone. "Mountain Fairy, please marry me!"
"I have told you many times I do not plan to marry anyone!" Ako yelled out. She just wanted to cultivate in peace! Why did this man decide to show up out of nowhere and bother her!? He has been here off and on for almost three months now!
"Why not!? I am handsome and have many connections! I will be the next sect master of my sect! How can you not want me!?" The young man argued back. He had never seen such a beautiful woman that was so full of mystery he was instantly attracted to her when he saw her!
"What does your position in a sect have to do with me!? I am not joining any sect. I only plan to cultivate peacefully, and you are running the whole peace portion of this process. So leave, or I will need to remove you from this world altogether!" Ako was starting to get very annoyed. She could ignore him for a short time, but the repeated interruptions of her cultivation have been too much for her! She had finally reached the peak of annoyance that she could take!
