In almost every fantasy novel he read, there was always a villain who was too strong for the Main Character. But they allowed him an opportunity to escape, only for the main character to return stronger and kill them.

This was the last thing Eren wanted, hence he had been delaying his plan. But if he could make sure that the Main Character wasn\'t able to escape, he could finally take the last step.

According to the Author, there was no Transmigrator in the Eastern Continent except him. Once the Main Character was gone, this was more or less a safe space for him, as long as he was cautious.

He wasn\'t sure how true it was, but according to Celeste, the answer he was looking for was in the Spirit Realm.

"Hmm? Now that I think about it, where is Celeste?"

Thinking about Celeste, he noticed that the little girl had been missing. She was not in his pocket and he didn\'t even know when she left.

"Yelen?" he called out the first spirit queen by her name.

Yelen turned around. She wasn\'t just Eren\'s contracted spirit. She was also his guardian. She could neither betray him, nor go against his commands. She was tied to him.

Yelen went down on one knee, properly greeting Eren for the first time like a guardian.

Felona and the other spirits who had found out Yelen\'s identity were shocked to see their first spirit queen on her knees before a human.

"Ancestor, you don\'t have to-" Resphi tried speaking, but her back turned cold when she saw Yelen\'s glare.

"Little child, I would advise you to think about your next words carefully."

Resphi closed her mouth and didn\'t utter a single word. Eren didn\'t have to guess hard to understand what Resphi was about to say next.

"I wanted to ask you something with just the two of us," Eren told Yelen, ignoring Resphi and others.

He was curious about Celeste\'s whereabouts, but he couldn\'t ask the Spirits to search for her when they couldn\'t even see her. He could only wait for her to return on her own while taking care of his own matters.

Yelen stood up, understanding Eren\'s meaning. She waved her hand, a barrage of spirit energy circling Eren.

Eren found his surroundings changing, and the next moment, he was in a closed space. His surroundings looked like some grand hall inside a Royal Palace.

The only place in the Spirit Realm that could have this grandeur was the Spirit Queen\'s Palace. Eren could even see the throne behind him.

Usually, the Spirit Queen was supposed to sit here, but as a ruler, this throne belonged to him.

Eren looked back at the grand throne, realizing why Yelen brought him here. She wanted him to take the throne.

He found it somewhat strange. Why was Yelen so accepting? She didn\'t even reveal any complaints or confusion with her sudden return. It was as if she already knew that something like this was going to happen.

Eren observed Yelen as he sat on the throne, his palm resting on the golden armrest.

"I want to ask you a few questions," Eren stated.

Yelen silently listened, as if waiting to see what questions he was going to ask.

"Did you know about me before we met today?" Eren asked.

Following his question, there was absolute silence in the hall. Yelen didn\'t say anything.

"I asked you a question. Did you know about me before we met today?" Eren repeated the question, a trace of lightning flickering around the spirit mark on the back of his hand.

Yelen clenched her chest, feeling pain rising within her heart. She almost dropped to her knees but controlled herself at the last moment.

She broke the silence.

"Yes."

"I thought so." Eren nodded, expecting that answer.

It was too obvious. The moment she was summoned, she appeared to have been prepared for it.

"My next question... Have we met before today?" Eren asked the first spirit queen.

The Spirit Queen looked back at Eren. "I don\'t understand why you are asking me these questions."

"The more hesitant you are, the more I can see that I am on the right track. So answer me, did we meet before today?"

Eren had only seen a glimpse of Ren\'s past. A lot of that was still a mystery. With the first spirit queen, he had a feeling that he was close to uncovering something.

If she already knew about him before today, that meant there was a high chance that she knew a lot more that she was not telling.

With Yelen\'s hesitation, Eren repeated the question. The spirit mark once again activated as Yelen hadn\'t followed his wishes by answering.

This time, Yelen couldn\'t control herself and fell to her knees, holding her chest tightly, feeling a throbbing pain.

Normally, a Spirit Contract wasn\'t able to inflict pain on a Spirit. But the Guardian Spirit was different.

"Even I don\'t want to hurt you after you helped me, especially when you had to kill your lover with your own hands to save me," he said, not liking the feeling of hurting his own guardian.

Still, he could not ignore these questions, as this might be another link to the past that he wanted to find out.

He further stated, "These answers are important for me. So please tell me... did we meet before today? Or rather, how did we meet?"

With her hesitation, he already guessed that the answer was yes. Ren had met Yelen before, but how and when? That was the question.

Yelen raised her head. Her lips opened as she finally said something. Her lips moved, and with each passing second, Eren\'s expressions darkened.
