"I'm not saying I don't trust you..."
Chicheng folded his arms and sighed at Lu Cang with a troubled expression.
"It's just that coming back from the future is a bit too far-fetched."
He turned to ask, "Iz, have you ever heard of anything like that?"
Iz merely shrugged. "Of course not."
"But it's not entirely impossible, either."
"And he says he came back with all his original strength. The Lu Cang standing here now isn't the same person we knew, right?"
Chicheng was surprisingly clever. He'd grasped the crux of the problem.
After all...
Where had the original Lu Cang gone?
From Lu Cang's perspective, it all made perfect sense.
Time had been reset, so he'd ended up in this time period.
But for Izpalut, Chicheng, and the others who had already been living in this timeline... where had the original Lu Cang gone?
Chicheng sat cross-legged, his hands clasped in front of him.
His expression was deeply troubled and confused.
This wasn't something they could just ignore. It meant the original Lu Cang had disappeared.
"Iz, what do you think?"
Chicheng asked again.
Izpalut scratched his head and sighed. "I've already thought about that."
"The answer should lie in a certain spell."
"But I haven't figured out the answer to that spell yet."
Chicheng nodded, then asked, "Will that be a problem?"
Iz shook his head. "If you mean the original Lu Cang... I might be able to explain where he went before long."
"But as for whether he can come back..."
"I'll have to research it first."
Iz replied seriously.
After they finished talking, the two turned to look at Lu Cang in unison.
Lu Cang felt an indescribable sense of guilt.
Iz and the others were still worried about the original him...
They hadn't simply accepted
