Chapter 419: Rustam’s Return

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Something else caught his attention. The timeline didn’t fit. It had been five hundred years since she disappeared from Earth. However, she was gone from Stelladom for eight hundred years. Here in the Dusk Soul Forest, the time became 39 years.

The three times didn’t match!

Gina came to Stelladom 800 years ago and disappeared from the Dusk Soul Forest. But during that time, Gina should be on Earth. The whole thing was so suspicious.

Why did she disappear all the time? Why didn’t the time add up?

Both questions needed answers.

“Alright. I see. I’ll find Gina. Trust me!” Himmel Soan said confidently.

Phoe nodded. Somehow, she trusted him and believed he could do it.

“Let me introduce you to the dragon. He’s really nice and knows a lot about the forest and Stelladom,” said Phoe.

“Let’s go!” Himmel Soan agreed.

He had been wondering where to search next, and here was his opportunity. Of course, he wouldn’t miss it.

Stelladom.

Starwan Tower.

After leaving the Dusk Soul Forest, Rustam immediately sent his chief a message, informing his return. The chief flew over and brought him back to the tower.

“Gadel said you died in the Dusk Soul Forest. I never thought I would see you alive again. Did something happen between you?” Ley asked.

A “dead man” had returned. It was the most incredible. However, he was only “dead,” according to Gadel, which wasn’t much evidence. It was obvious that Gadel and his friends had been lying.

“Here’s what happened…” Rustam described their first encounter with Himmel Soan.

As for his second encounter, he didn’t mention it at all. He had made an oath to keep the secret, and he wasn’t going to break his promise.

“I see. Return to your room, and don’t talk to Gadel just yet. I’ll summon them later. You go back and have some rest,” Ley said indifferently.

“Yes!” Rustam cupped his hand and left the room.

Jui came out and commented, “That was strange. A dead man has been brought back to life.”

“Tell me what you think,” Ley said.

“He and Gadel fell out. It’s so obvious. Fighting over a map is so pointless!

“I think Rustam did the right thing. That man saved them, and the least they could do was give him a map!

“Those three have crossed the line. I would have fallen out with them, too!” Jui was displeased.

Ley chuckled. Jui looked adorable. She didn’t like Himmel Soan before, but she was now speaking up for him. How fickle!

However, Ley didn’t point it out. Instead, she asked, “What do you think I should do to Gadel and his friends?”

“Well… Do you mean how to punish them?” Jui hesitated.

Ley smiled. “What do you think?”

“They should be banished! Our organization can’t tolerate such things. They were a team, and what they did was unforgivable!

“I’m curious, though. How did Rustam come out of the Dusk Soul Forest all by himself?”

The Dusk Soul Forest was a restricted area. Starwan Tower had been investigating this place, which was why they knew how terrifying it was. Jui couldn’t understand how Rustam survived.

“Why do you think he was alone? Maybe somebody helped him. He didn’t mention it, so I think he must have his reasons.

“Everybody has their secrets, and Rustam’s no exception.

“You can speculate how he survived, but don’t ask any questions,” Ley told Jui.

She was teaching Jui with her life experience. Many things weren’t supposed to be found out. Getting to the bottom of things was a stupid thing to do.

“I see. What are you going to do with Gadel and the other two?” Jui nodded and asked curiously.

“I’ll take your advice. What do you think?” Ley chuckled.

“What? Banish them?” Jui hesitated.

Kicking them out seemed a bit too much. After all, the map was very meaningful to them and was more important than their lives. Many people lost their lives because of it. Neither side seemed to be wrong.

What should she do?

Jui was lost in her thoughts.

“I think you have an answer. You can stay here and observe. See how I handle this matter.” Ley waved at Jui, who then went to stand behind the curtain.

Once Jui was hidden, Ley said, “Come in.”

“Yes!” Gadel and the other two came into the room. They didn’t know why they were summoned, but they had to come.

“I have something to tell you. Rustam is back.” Ley didn’t beat around the bush and told them about Rustam’s return.

The looks on their faces were incredible.

Zuxra seemed to be conflicted. She had already become intimate with Gadel. How should she face Rustam now?

Although nothing had happened between them, she had always had a crush on Rustam and wanted to be his girlfriend. What she did was horrible!

Damn it!

Why did Rustam have to come back?

“Did Rustam tell you anything?” Gadel asked tentatively.

Ley said, “No, he returned to his room without reporting to me. That’s why I summoned you here. I wanted to know what happened.

“Why were you separated?”
