Reunion, New Powers, and Next Steps
"Mei Gui...it's really you..." I murmured, caressing her cheeks lovingly.
"Mm...Master..." Mei Gui rubbed her face into my chest, and embraced me tightly.
The other girls, seeing this touching scene, also broke into tears and watched from afar. After a solid few minutes of hugging, Mei Gui and I finally broke away from each other, and she wiped her tears away.
"Master...I'm sorry," Mei Gui said, bowing down even though she was still lying on the bed. "I...I hurt you."
It seems...she still retained her memories from when she was in Apoxyia-mode?
"Don't worry about that," I replied, patting her head. "It's not your fault."
"That man...is he dead?" Mei Gui asked, clenching her fists.
I sighed. "Yes...I know, you want to kill him yourself, but...I couldn't take his bullshit, and ran out of patience..."
Mei Gui shook her head. "It's okay, Master. I'm just happy to be with you again."
I nodded. "Me too."
