Revelations!

"How come it takes so much?!" Yan Zaizen angrily complained. This wasn't the first time and unlikely the last.

After the event with Pinaka where their souls linked, their relationship didn't undergo a massive shift. Instead, it was like a rope had appeared, subtly and silently connecting the two. This feeling was miraculously deeper than their normal connection, but it still didn't change much.

Pinaka was still Pinaka.

Yan Zaizen was still Yan Zaizen.

To think they would become love-sick was only a fool's thought.

Off to the side, Pinaka calmly stared at the pyramid that was Yan Zaizen's heavenly shrine. She looked at the first three floors. They were filled to the brink with dense heavenly mist. This mist was the heavenly aura state within his heavenly shrine. For others, this may not come off as mist, but a glob of liquid or a jelly-like substance.
