Chapter 1036: The science behind cloning.
Sebastian halted from his steps when he felt his chaperon stopped. Looking back at Princess, he furrowed his brows at the shocked expression plastered on her. Curious, he followed the direction Princess was staring in, only to see a woman several steps from them.
"Uncle Princess, why are you looking at her?" he asked, looking back at Princess.
Princess snapped back to the current lapse when Sebastian’s voice caressed her ears. She gazed down at him, forcing a smile to her face.
"Huh?" Princess cleared her throat. "No — nothing. I just thought I saw someone."
"Someone you know?"
Princess nodded. "Yes, but I was wrong. Let — let’s go."
When Princess raised her head, Hera already fixed the shock on her face. As if a stranger, Hera resumed in her steps going in their direction. But this time, she kept her eyes ahead, as if she didn’t know Sebastian and Princess.
"Mhm, alright." Sebastian nodded, resuming his steps and peeking at the lady walking in their direction. ’Do I know her?’
Sebastian tilted his head, his steps slow and careful, deep in thought. For some reason, he felt like he had seen that face before. He just didn’t know where or how, but she looked very familiar. Meanwhile, Princess kept her eyes on the familiar face coming closer to them.
’Hera,’ Princess whispered, having this urge to stop Hera and hold her. She and Gray heard everything from Bear. So, they already knew that Heaven and Hera had switched bodies again. However, the two still chose to stay beside Sebastian because that was their mission. Unless Hera told them they could come, they would stay where they were.
Even so, seeing Hera right now brought all the longing Princess felt. Even when Hera was able to sport a cold and strong front in the blink of an eye, Princess knew she was in pain. She wanted to console her sister, but how? Sebastian was here and, aware of Hera’s situation, Hera had only a short amount of time to completely hide her tracks from the watchful eyes of everyone.
