Chapter 689: Big Brother, you really are a god, aren't you?

"Ruu?!"

Seeing the boy suddenly appear, Lumine was taken aback.

Previously, she had thought it might be Tsurumi Island sustaining Ruu's existence.

Looking at it now, a more accurate explanation would be... the power of the Thunderbird's feather?

So, if one had this feather, could they take Ruu out of here?

The feather could maintain his existence.

That should be the right way to understand it.

"Big Sister."

Ruu first looked happily toward Lumine.

"Are you two here to visit me?"

"And this Big Brother, are you perhaps going to take me to see Kapatcir? Those things from just now must have been Kapatcir's memories."

"It's a pity that I still don't know why the village and everyone became like this."

"Is it because the ritual wasn't performed well, so Kapatcir got angry, and that's why it turned out like this?"

Lumine didn't know what to say for a moment.

She couldn't very well tell him those cruel facts.

Or the fact that the Thunderbird was already dead.

Unexpectedly, Ye Ruo stated it all directly.

"Because thousands of years have already passed, they are all dead. Including you."

"Back then, they believed you were favored by the gods, so they sacrificed you in a blood ritual to the Thunderbird."

"I can only say, it was a far too ignorant civilization."

"So when Kapatcir saw that you were dead, it destroyed everything in its rage. As punishment, it also made the ley line images here loop forever, repeating that ritual."

"Wait, Ye Ruo!"
