Aeolus could only recognize Airel's face, and the girl in front of him, with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a lobster, looked exactly like Airel in his memory.
Not only that, but her upper body was clad in a carapace-like heavy armor. Aeolus remembered the Airel he saw was also wearing heavy armor. If she had a warhammer in her hand, it would be perfect.
But, was this really his Airel?
The Koutao Mermaid Goddess extended one semi-tentacled palm, caressing the head of the lobster girl, and said to Aeolus, "You see, the Airel you're looking for is right here. So, who exactly did that so-called friend of yours find for you?"
Aeolus frowned. In that case, was the Lich deceiving him all along?
No, something definitely wasn't right.
Aeolus's intuition told him that the events of the day were too bizarre, but he couldn't pinpoint what was wrong at the moment.
