Abyssal Chronicles-Chapter 1059: An Unexpected Person

When Fanzi and Yela learned of Yumo’s return, they naturally wanted to bring their child home to enjoy a long-awaited family reunion. Satoru strongly supported this idea.

And so, they all got into the car and headed towards what was once Yumo’s home.

Soon enough, amid Fanzi and the little ones’ playful laughter, the car entered a beautiful residential complex. Located in the prosperous northern part of Skina City, it was a modern architectural complex exuding luxury and elegance. The classical marble-decorated entrance featured a spacious driveway lined with shady trees, creating a serene and elegant atmosphere. The security guards at the gate looked stern yet maintained professional courtesy.

These were clearly no ordinary security personnel.

Inside, wide roads wound between carefully planned green spaces dotted with various flowers that filled each season with different fragrances. The modern design incorporated well-arranged high-rises with glass curtain walls that gave the whole complex a bright, contemporary feel. The residential areas were cleverly planned, with apartment buildings arranged to create beautiful landscapes.

As they drove through, Yumo took in all the amenities - private gardens, swimming pools, fitness centers and other recreational facilities providing a high-quality lifestyle for residents. The complex even had its own commercial area with boutiques, restaurants, cafes... everything one could need.

"Wow..." Yumo couldn’t help exclaiming after getting out of the car. "Our family’s really moved up in the world, huh?"

It was obvious this wasn’t an ordinary residential complex - not somewhere just anyone could live. Yumo’s shock was understandable. After all, just before her death over ten years ago, they had been an ordinary family living in an ordinary neighborhood.

And now? They were living in such an upscale place?

"It’s nothing special," said Yela as she got out of the car beside Yumo, seemingly noticing her daughter’s confusion. "A few years ago, with your brother’s recommendation, my business had some modest success. Made a bit of money, and then got a place here so Mina could attend high school nearby."

"This can’t just be ’modest success’, right? Mom, have you become this amazing?"

Yela smiled warmly at her daughter’s praise. "Alright, alright... come on, let’s go home."

"Mm." Yumo nodded and followed Yela’s steps.

However, compared to her parents’ faces full of joy, Yumo’s smile seemed somewhat forced. Beneath that seemingly perfect smile lurked a hint of conflict. This feeling only grew stronger as she watched her parents interact with the children.

Given the current situation, Yumo didn’t believe she could stay on Blue Star for long.

Going home? Sure, it was home, but... how long could she actually stay?

When she had to leave again, wouldn’t it just break her mother’s heart once more?

To regain something only to lose it again - such a blow would surely cut even deeper.

And this time, she’d be taking their granddaughter with her too.

"Sigh..." While her parents were busy interacting with their little darlings, Yumo let out a helpless sigh.

If I’d know, maybe should have just watched them from afar? Would that have been better?

Yumo felt a touch of regret in that moment.

Just then—

"Don’t overthink it." A steady, reliable, magnetic male voice suddenly came from behind Yumo.

The speaker was her friend Satoru.

Seemingly noticing Yumo’s inner conflict, Sato stepped forward to comfort her.

"Sato?"

"Since you’re back, just enjoy this time with your family without overthinking it. Besides... I’ve already had my superior report your situation to the Holy Maiden. I don’t think she’s that heartless - if you prove yourself, she’ll probably let you travel between both worlds."

"I hope so," Yumo’s voice carried a note of prayer.

After regaining her composure slightly, Yumo shot Satoru a weird look. "By the way Sato, why are you tagging along to my family reunion?"

"Hm?" Satoru raised an eyebrow casually. "You think I want to follow you around? My superior ordered me to keep an eye on you."

"Oh really?" Yumo smirked playfully, her beautiful face taking on a teasing expression as she poked his chest. "Here I thought you still had feelings for me. What would I tell Yuki if that were true?"

"Give me a break." Satoru rolled his eyes with an exaggerated look of disgust. "Sure, you’re pretty now... but after the psychological trauma you gave me back then, you think I could still be attracted to you?"

"Fair point."

"Besides, I prefer girls with bigger chests."

"...Looking to get smacked, are YOU?"

"Haha, just kidding!" Satoru raised his hands in surrender.

After their playful banter, Satoru’s expression turned serious as he leaned in to whisper: "By the way, did you ask your mom about that thing?"

"That thing? Oh right..." Yumo remembered a serious matter. Earlier when Satoru tried explaining her situation to her parents, her mom had immediately asked "Is Yumo coming back?" before he could finish. She’d said someone told her...

Who could have known about her return in this world?

It was a serious issue, but she’d forgotten about it after getting whacked with the feather duster. Now remembering, she quickly caught up to her mother, linking arms with her affectionately like a sweet daughter.

"Mom~ Can I ask you something?"

"Hm? What is it?"

"Earlier when you were talking with Sato, didn’t you say someone told you I’d be coming back?"

"Ah yes, that’s right."

"Well... who told you?"

"Hmm, according to her, she’s your friend."

"F-friend?" Yumo’s forehead instantly sprouted countless question marks.

Yela didn’t notice Yumo’s confused expression and continued muttering: "Well, she’s a nice girl - sweet, sensible, and understanding. You’re lucky to have such a friend. I even doubted her at first - I should apologize to that child."

"Mom, who exactly are you talking about?"

"Well~" Yela smiled mysteriously, tilting her head. "You’ll find out soon~"

"Huh?" Yumo blinked in confusion.

Seeing Yela wasn’t going to explain further, Yumo pouted and followed behind her mother bewilderedly.

And so, with mixed feelings, Yumo and her children followed her parents to an apartment on the tenth floor.

"Welcome home Yumo." As Fanzi spoke, the door slowly opened, flooding Yumo’s face with bright light from the living room.

But along with the light, Yumo saw a slender white figure.

The figure sat on a white carpet in the living room, holding a adorable fat white cat. She wore a cute light blue nightgown, had a slim yet tall figure, and short smooth platinum hair with striking dark red highlights. Her perfect features formed beautiful contours, and her red-tinged eyes sparkled like jewels.

Without doubt, she was a stunning girl.

However, upon seeing her, Yumo’s expression changed drastically.

Because this girl was none other than the Abyssal Lord who had captured Mengxi!
