With Yuko and Sofiel as an example, the possibility is high that my other companions were also a reincarnator. Just that their mories about our past life were still locked.
"Yuko… the clingy woman. Zerina, Avelin, Jayna and… Nysia."
So the clingy woman she's talking about is Yuko… Err. That could be discussed later.
Aside from Yuko, the four she nad were all Orb Holders. Like her.
"All of them?"
"I'm not entirely sure. However, their nas… It's the sa as how you introduced the won in your life to in my mory."
Sofiel pondered for a while, trying to recall the things she could rember. And one by one, she listed what she could rember about them. She hasn't t them in this life yet but once she started talking about them, there's an enthusiastic and longing expression which surfaced on her face.
"Zerina was soone from a Mortal World like . She was too fond of using two short blades. Oftentis, we would have duels and even if she won, she would concede the reward of being with you to ."
"Avelin was the most adorable and innocent among us. However, she was often swayed by what she sees from others. I probably influenced her actions back then because of how I kept jumping on your arms which she imitated if she wanted you to notice her."
"Jayna was soone who could be distracted easily because of her overflowing curiosity. She once spent a day admiring cave inscriptions. If you didn't co to her side and stop her, she would stay there for more."
"Nysia, the pure maiden. Though she looked more mature than the others, she's purer than most of us when it cos to loving you. She's like a different person when she's alone with you though."
"Yuko, we had a love and hate relationship. She's your first woman. I called her clingy woman because she often interrupted from jumping on you by pulling you to her. But when we were faced against strong enemies, we often fought side by side. Uhm. That's all I can rember about them."
The way she described the girls on point on their personality… except Yuko. But if she's recalling it from the mory she managed to rember, then it's possible that Yuko was like that only to her.
It's safe to believe it for now but I want to see her reaction upon seeing them.
"Thank you, Sofiel. I'll let them et you and by then you can confirm if it's really them. You see, none of them rembered things from the past. I t them as strangers again. But as you can see, in the end, they ended up becoming my Companions.
If they're really soone reincarnated from my past then my guess about the Orbs being arranged is almost certain now. Is it arranged by the Principal himself or there's soone or sothing else at play here? His shadows only surfaced on the last two orbs. He told Nysia that ten years later, I will appear before her and with Sofiel, he gave her the Orb and told her about .
In any case, once they rembered the mories of their past lives, I will be able to know more about how I beca important for Earth.

After a few more questions and clarifications, Sofiel separated from and excused herself. But before completely letting go of her hold on , she leaned in and gave a kiss on my cheek.
Now that she was listed as my Companion, all doubts I had for her story had instantly disappeared. There's no point to doubt her anymore after being reconnected to her. Also, she wouldn't be listed as one if I didn't believe her. I certainly felt that from her. All of what she said and narrated even if it's confusing was from her mory and it contained her true feelings.
Moreover, she's a Rank 2 Transcendent. The Highest Rank that I've seen and interacted with aside from the sly Principal and the Old Man in Mansion Ruins. And now with the added buff coming from and all the benefits that the system provided, she's more powerful now.
Gaining this kind of ally, the upcoming fight against the Dark World Transcendents will be sothing to look forward to.
I still have a lot of questions that she could probably answer. However, she left temporarily to reactivate the Concealnt Formation of the Floating Island, Aves.
It's been more than an hour since the Aves resurfaced, sooner or later, the Noxians will arrive and poke their noses in.
According to Sofiel, despite being secluded for long, she was in contact with the World's Will and she was observing what's happening inland. That's the reason why she instantly knew about my arrival.
Though what she did about leaving the Elentals and the Humans to their own against the Noxians and the Dark World was extrely selfish, her mindset is all on waiting for my arrival that I couldn't really bla her.
I could scold her but what's the point? The events already happened...
Fleur as the remaining Transcendent of the Elentals also never uttered words of grievance against the Luxians.
"Uhm. Did she really beco your companion? Just like that."
Fleur, after her long silence, finally opened her mouth. Everything was observed by her and I'm sure that if it was confusing for , it was even more so for her.
We were talking about previous lives. That concept was surely foreign for her but on how serious our discussion was earlier, she kept her mouth shut and waited for her turn.
"Yes, what is it on your mind? You can ask anything."
"It's all confusing, Daisuke. But her eyes that were full of devotion towards you, it wasn't fake. Is that how I will feel if I also beco your Companion?"
"Not necessarily, her devotion towards has a reason. It all depends on you but you see, I like you as you are, Fleur. You don't need to copy anyone else."
I stood up and sat next to her. Taking her hand on mine again, Fleur's eyes went down to it and observed our interlocked fingers. As to what she was currently thinking, I have no idea.
A few minutes later, an enormous surge of energy was released on the islands surrounding.
As soon as we noticed it, Fleur and I stood up and went to the opened window to look at the source of the commotion.
Though I already guessed that it was the Concealnt Formation being reactivated, seeing the process of how this huge island could be concealed from the other prying eyes is a learning experience.
The formation might not be as invincible as the Orb of Concealnt but for it to cover this island completely, it's probably burning a lot of resources. And whoever created it might be on par with the creator of those Traps in the Central Area of the Noxian Capital.
After the Concealnt in the form of a Purple Barrier fully ford beyond the Barrier which protected the island, another surge of energy happened.
The whole island shook which could be compared to an earthquake. However, that was just an indication of the movent of the island.
Of course, it wouldn't stay at the sa place, it had to move or it would be discovered easily.
"Where are they going?"
Fleur pointed at the flying Luxians who had just left the tower. They're all wearing identical golden armor as they ford into squads before spreading out to the corners of the island.
"Why don't we check?"
While still holding her hand, I pulled her out of the window and flew out of the tower.
Our Transcendent Aura intersected with Sofiel's. She was in the basent of the tower where the Cores for the Formations were located. With the input of her own Elental Energy, the direction of the Movent Formation could be controlled.
When she noticed us, she communicated through a simple Light Elental Spell which transferred thoughts to us.
According to her, with the activation of the Concealnt Formation, the Noxians and Dark World denizens that were scouting it started to launch their attacks on the island.
Though their firepower was low, it was enough to locate the Floating Island due to the barrier deflecting their attacks.
That's why Sofiel mobilized the Protectors, the soldiers of The Great Protector Church, to stop them.
Since we're already outside of the tower, we just followed one of the squads and saw the ensuing fight against the enemy scouts.
The squad of Protectors went out of the Barrier and engaged the enemies in a neat formation.
Because they were scattered and just thought of marking the Island to not let it go off their radar again, the Noxians and the Dark World denizens dropped like flies against the barrage of offensive Light Elental Spells from the Protectors.
It was too easy that it couldn't be called a battle but just swatting off the flies.
Soon enough, the remaining enemies who wanted to preserve their lives retreated and the Floating Island managed to move from where it was parked.
Different from them that were in a constant battle against the Humans and Elentals, the Luxians still have a huge number of Elental Forming and Elental Fusing Realms in their ranks.
That was what Sofiel was being proud of. She preserved the race and accumulated experts.
Aside from her, Sofiel ntioned earlier that the Luxians also have three more Rank 1 Transcendents that she would always send outside to either gather intelligence for her or look for resources to maintain the Island's Formation.
However, with this eting with , they were all called back and were already on their way ho. All for the purpose of eting , the Great Protector.
