Chapter 715 - Emotional Meeting
-----
Anastacia and Juliette remembered a bit of their past. They remembered the time before being reborn now. They were fighting desperately against an abyssal entity from the depths of space, the unexplored empty void of space which they feared so much.
Due to how much they feared outer space, the twins usually lived within the skies of Eden instead than outer space, feeling like the empty darkness outside, which was so vast and incomprehensible gave them a strong existential dread.
And of course, as if that fear came to bite them in the back, this monstrous being had emerged from within this empty void, this monstrous… parasitic entity, this all-devouring mass of flesh in the shape of a meteor… the Hivemind.
They remembered doing everything they could, they put so much effort, so much exhaustion. It was such a terrifying fight where their lives were on the line like it has never been before. They felt tired and utterly terrified by it.
At the end they merged together and decided to sacrifice themselves in a reckless charge against the Hivemind, utilizing their power to the very limits and fusing with the Yggdrasil tree they had been growing inside their divine realm for some time, entangling and trapping the monster with their roots and branches, and sealing it deep underground within the Planet of Eden.
But now things were different, apparently, they suddenly woke up out of nowhere after such a long sleep which felt like they were more like dead than anything, and found themselves in a place they had never been before, which was covered by beautiful scenery and colors everywhere, a beautiful divine realm like they had never seen before.
And they had new bodies, they remembered sacrificing their bodies and fusing them with the wood of the tree, but now they had new fleshy bodies, packed to the brim with divine power like never before, it was as if their bodies were finely crafted through eons of dedication, which was exactly just that. The tree had done this for eons.
And there was a woman in front of them, they had never seen her before. But she was somewhat familiar to them, her silvery-white hair, her gray eyes, her beautiful and slender body, and her warm, lovely smile. She seemed nostalgic to see them, as if she had been waiting a lifetime just for this very moment… and well, she had.
She had thought that what they were doing was wrong, forcing them to wake up would only damage them but at the end, they looked completely healthy, Yggdrasil checked her mother several times, but they looked to be completely alright, they were just confused.
"Mo… ther?
" asked Anastacia, raising an eyebrow without knowing what she was talking about.
"Wha…?
" asked Juliette in surprise. She was confused too.
"Yeah! I-I am Yggdrasil! I am the tree you created through your fusion with the original tree… I've developed a mind of my own after… almost a million years? You've been sleeping for very long but I've finally managed to revive you! I… I made these bodies for you, and even slowly recollected your consciousness fragments back up together all for this moment…
" she sighed in relief.
"You… You're… the tree?
"
"I can't believe it…
"
The two were left speechless. They couldn't really believe this was happening. But this was indeed happening, this was real life, they had been revived after so long… it seemed that the thoughts they held and the desires they had of sleeping forever had dissipated as they woke up, something within them was now calling them to live and move forward instead of holing themselves into their own dreams, hopelessly thinking about dying and staying asleep forever.
They felt as if they had been truly reborn anew, after so long… it also felt as if they woke up from a very long nap, and were overflowing with new energy in the next morning. The twins looked at Yggdrasil as they smiled back.
"So you've done that… Thank you, Yggdrasil… I-I guess we own you an apology.
" Sighed Anastacia.
"We had been sleeping for too long, we left everything for you at the end… We were irresponsible, like your creators… we don't want to be like them…
" sighed Juliette.
"So we are sorry, deeply sorry, our child… our daughter.
" Said Anastacia.
"D-Daughter?
" muttered Yggdrasil, feeling like she couldn't contain her tears anymore, she was embraced by both of her mothers, as she was hugged tightly by them.
"Indeed, you're our child… I am sorry for letting you by yourself for so long… We'll do everything we can to help you out and survive, alright?
" asked Juliette.
"Ahh… T-This feels like a dream… I can't believe it…
" muttered Yggdrasil, her happiness was so much she was crying out loud while hugging her mothers.
"Well, you better believe… it…
" said Anastacia.
"Indeed, we are here… And we won't leave!
" said Juliette.
"I can't believe that when we were sleeping, we had such grieving thoughts and depressive desires… we were lost. But now that we woke up, I just feel like… life is really worth living for… We got a daughter now to take care of, we can't keep being irresponsible anymore.
" Sighed Anastacia.
"Y-Yeah… Our little daughter must be taken care of… Even after a million years, we are billion years old, so she's still a kid compared to us!
" said Juliette.
"Heh, that's right…
" sighed Anastacia.
"Mama…
" muttered Yggdrasil, as she continued to cry, she was embraced by her two mothers, as her tears of happiness were slowly cleansed. She was suddenly bathed in kisses all over her face. She had never felt this happy and fulfilled before. The love of a mother, or well, two mothers, was something she had been lacking this entire time as she developed.
"You're such an adorable girl, Yggdrasil… Good job working hard for us.
" Said Anastacia.
"Indeed, you're a beautiful daughter.
" Said Juliette.
"Uwahhh…
"
Yggdrasil was having the time of her life…. However, she suddenly remembered who had freed them.
And well, they just showed up behind them.
