Leilah POV
Since I shouldn't disturb Perseus, I headed home for now and teleported there, but when I got home, I can see a white-haired guy with a little girl standing in front of the door where Rylee was talking to him.
I got closer and can overhear him saying that he was sent by Perseus and Rylee was doubting him. Something's strange though, I can't sense him at all, even ghosts have them, I got closer and see that he got purple-colored eyes, and I remembered what Perseus told me during his first time charging up the machine.
The person in front of me is another Perseus from another universe, I sniffed the air a bit, their scent was similar enough, but I can make the distinction.
"Let him in please, I recognize him."
"Ah, ok then." Rylee replied and Perseus 2.0 walked into the room and saw the children.
"You guys don't belong here, do you?" he asked, "Future?"
"Who are you and how did you know that?" Orion asked cautiously.
"Sort of an expert, anyway, where's Vince Silver? I was assigned to treat him or whatever."
"May I ask who's the little girl?
I was curious, she doesn't look similar, so she can't be his daughter, but she looked very close...what if...what if the Perseus of the alternate world prefers younger women... no... he can't...can he? I'm so confused.
"My sword spirit, anyway, be quick, if you guys got a goddess invading his head, it'll just hurt him more." he responded.
I then led him to the room and sent a magic signal into Vince's head where Lilith then later woke up and detached herself from Vince's dream.
"Who's this suspicious guy?" Lilith asked and turned to Ruka.
"Don't know either." Ruka shrugged.
"Who's the cute little girl?" Lilith asked while Perseus 2.0 sat on a chair and tried to concentrate.
"Overheard it from downstairs that it's his sword spirit."
"His what?"
"Don't ask me."
"You're my older sister."
"Yeah, and I lived in a cave."
"Guys, it's Perseus Silver, from another universe."
"What?!" I can hear the shout and exclamation of the 3 children all the way from here, I think I can hear someone spitting out the tea they were drinking as well. I now hear them rushing to our room to just stare at him in both awe and shock.
"Eislyn, protect me while I go into his head." he ordered.
"You don't even need protecting, can I go have fun instead?" she asked.
"If you do a good job, I'll take you for a quick tour of the local cuisine."
"Ok, papa."
He adopted his sword spirit as his daughter...is this man...he then just slept and yet, no matter how close we are to him, we can't sense his presence at all, either he's that weak or his power was so strong that we can't fathom it.
According to Trevor, there's a theory of his that if someone is so powerful, their presence would spread far and wide due to its size, and since his presence is everywhere in the air and the environment, it would be impossible to sense it from the person as it's everywhere.
And that description might fit him, because...well, he won't be able to get here otherwise. It seems that the Perseus Silvers of every universe is just fated to become powerful.
"I sense a strong presence of death on him, why?" I asked the little girl.
"Well, he's married to a former goddess of life and death." the little girl answered before cutely covering her mouth, "Ah, no information."
"Well, it seems that ours will have that same trait." Ruka said while staring between me and the flustered Maple.
"Woah, that's awesome." Orion finally let out his more inner child thoughts came out, "I still can't believe it even when we're close...sword spirits, just like in those books you read."
"I know, and here I thought they were fictional." Asher agreed.

3rd Person POV
Vincent now can see another man entering the scene once Lilith left, it was someone he can't recognize.
"I see what's going on here." Perseus 2 said, "Vince, may I ask for a private moment? Just for a short moment, I can definitely help you out."
"Ok, did big bro send you or are you here to kidnap me?" Vincent asked innocently while backing away in a cautious manner.
"Yeah, I was sent by him, don't worry about this, and leave this to me."
Once Vincent did, Perseus 2 turned to Lucifer and already got a solution in his head, something that only he was able to do.
"To think that a soul of a previous life is now stuck to his new one, never seen this before, but I can easily solve it." Perseus 2 said.
"Really? You some god or something?" Lucifer asked.
"Nah, but fortunately I was reincarnated into a world of clichés, so I became really powerful. I have 3 solutions to this problem because this problem will persist even when Perseus stops charging that thing, the machine activated your dormant soul."
"Oh, is one of them to get rid of me permanently?" Lucifer asked with a smirk.
"Yep, 1. you disappear forever, 2. I'll free you from your cage and turn you into a voice inside his head, and last but not least, I can merge your memories and you 2 will become one. If you want 1, I can do it immediately, if you want the other 2, you will have to consult the current owner of the body."
"Sheesh, you left me with a tough choice. So, there are more reincarnated people like you and Luke out there who also remember their past?"
"In my world, yes, several." Perseus 2 nodded, "Perseus left me with the decision-making and said he'll deal with the consequences."
"I'm gonna ask the boy." Lucifer replied, "If he doesn't like the 2 options, I'll go, but if he does...I want to live just a tiny bit longer, I want to experience life."
"Well, sure, now let me go get him back, you're going to have a lot to discuss."
