"We were inside the Hell's Gate."
Samael shrugged, jerking his chin towards Claude to explain it better.
"To make it short and simple, the time in Hell's Gate runs differently from reality. When we luckily got out of it, it's been two years," explained Claude as he recalled what they went through that only felt like it happened overnight. "In that place, an entire day and night are equal to a year in the real world. That is also the reason we just arrived in this place just now."
"So you're saying, you… also disappeared from this world for the past two years?"
"Exactly." Claude rocked his head. "We're surprised that when we asked about the Haimirich Empire, no one seemed to remember it. Good thing Tilly knows where Sunny was, so we just followed her heart."
Conan knitted his brows as he mulled about it. "In other words, you also don't have any idea of the mainland, huh?"
