Chapter 2452: Romario Zingan
The young girl finally opened her eyes, feeling even more headache at first than Juliana did due to how long she spent inside. "My head... System, report the situation."
-The subject's ID has been confirmed: KT00432897, also known as Tamires Zinfan, has been in cryostasis for an extended period of time. The system can't determine the time spent in cryostasis as the database has been damaged.-
Rean heard that and commented. "The system wasn't able to tell who was in the pod before. However, after the lid opened, it seemed like it could finally identify the person. She should have an ID card with her somewhere in her body." Rean used an ID card to deactivate the system's defense, after all. Before he used it, the system of this facility had no idea who he was either.
The girl, Tamires, heard Rean's voice and looked in his direction. "Who... are you? No, first of all, why did you put me in cryostasis?"
Rean and the others looked at each other before returning their attention to Tamires. "We didn't put you there. It was us that took you out instead."
Rean then looked at his mother. "Mom, do you recognize her?"
Juliana shook her head while holding the furred ball. "Never seen in my life."
*Griii!*
Suddenly, the rainbow colored furred ball jumped from Jualiana's arma, landing right on the lap of Tamires.
*Grriii, griiiiii, griiiiiii!*
"Gigi! You little rascal, why are you here?" Tamires finally broke into a smile, quickly petting the excited ball of rainbow fur.
Of course, her attention quickly returned to the situation at hand. "Forget it. System, report the events prior to my cryostasis. This should give me some answers."
-Error. The database is compromised. Any information prior to a hundred and thirty-two thousand, seven hundred and forty-five years ago has been lost.-
"Hundred thousand years?" Tamires was confused. "What is a year? System, switch to the official time scale of Lingan Universe's army."
-Request accepted. The system has no information prior to 533129 clicks ago.-
"What?!" Tamires quickly jumped out of her cryo pod. "Impossible! There is no way I've been sleeping this long! Call Professor Livuble, ID WE75554031. Make it an emergency."
-Error. This facility is not equipped with a multiverse communication system, and the database also doesn't have information on anyone by the name and ID provided.-
Rean then raised his hand. "Little girl, just a quick question. Were you perhaps in the spaceship from Lingan Universe that came to extract the Chaos Source?"
Tamires looked at Rean, having some doubts. "You still haven't told me who you are. Do you expect me to start talking with just anyone? As far as I know, you might be an enemy."
"Oh, sorry," Rean didn't mind before smiling. "System, please report my ID to this little lady. You can also mention my authority rank."
-Request accepted. Subject Rean Larks, ID 340184527812, Authority Rank: A12.-
"A12?!" Tamires was taken aback and quickly apologized. "I'm sorry, sir. I was disrespectful. I'll make sure to cooperate and answer any questions sir may have."
Rean almost laughed out loud. She definitely didn't know that he wasn't even a crew member of the spaceship just a while ago. The only reason he had such a high ranking was because Tanxan gave it to him. "It's fine, it's fine. So, little girl, can you answer my previous question?"
Tamires didn't seem very happy to be called a little girl every time, but she didn't dare to speak back. "Yes, I was on that ship."
Rean nodded. "What is the last thing you remember before being put into cryostasis?"
Tamires pondered a bit, still feeling some headache from the awakening. Finally, she answered. "I was in my room, filing a report of my activities that day, when suddenly, everything went black... No, wait... I seem to recall my father came into the room as well to check on me... It's just that I wasn't paying much attention to him with the work I was doing..."
Rean looked at his mother, who obviously had the same idea as him. "Rean, could she be..."
Rean nodded. "Perhaps..." He then looked back at Tamires. "Little lady, what was your father's name?"
"Romario Zingan," Tamires answered without thinking much.
To make sure, Rean used his Divine Energy to project two images on the air. One image was of his father during his time on Earth. The other was the image of his father as an Archangel. "Does he look like any of these two people?"
Tamires nodded. "Yes, the High Light Being Race man is definitely my father. As for the other, I've never seen him before... although he does seem a little similar somehow."
Juliana's expression turned as dark as it could be. "So... that man had another woman, uh?"
Rean bitterly smiled. "Aham... Mom, don't forget. This is probably a kid from countless years ago. It... doesn't mean much, you know? Perhaps this girl's mother had already passed away, too."
"Hmph!" Juliana wasn't very convinced by Rean's words, but she decided to leave it aside for now. The main culprit, Romario, wasn't here at the moment after all.
"Sir," Tamires called their attention. "Where is my father? Did he do something wrong? I'm sure there must be a mistake. My father is definitely a loyal subject of the Lingan Army."
Rean sighed in response. "Well, first, you must understand the situation you are in. You see... errr... 533129 clicks... That's probably not even a thousandth of the time you have been sleeping in cryostasis."
Tamires' face paled when she heard that. "This... Hehe... hehehe... Sir must be joking, right? Dad, come out! This is not funny!"
Yet, there was no response, only the weird expression on Rean and everyone else's faces. "No, this is a lie! It's impossible for me to have slept for this long!"
Rean patted her shoulder. "Well, don't worry. I'll try to explain everything the best I can. However, the question about the time... that much is not a lie."
*Tud...*
Not able to receive the news, Tamires fainted right there and then...
