## Chapter
- number: 72
- release_date: 2025-05-11

### Summary
Continuing the cosmic flashback from the previous chapter, the narrative reveals the tragic origin of Delius and Leyrin's fated bond. In her past life as a woman named "Star," Leyrin spent an extensive period of time with Delius in a spiritual realm, a relationship readers have humorously dubbed "dating postmortem." During this time, Delius was non-verbal, yet they formed a deep, soulful connection. The backstory establishes that the gods, particularly a figure named Arabella, are responsible for this "mess," having created Delius to contain their own chaotic power and then using Star as a means to control him. The emotional core of the chapter revolves around their eventual, heartbreaking separation, showing a crying Delius and implying he had to die in his original form in order to be reincarnated and find her again. Readers reacted with overwhelming emotion, finding the story both beautiful and profoundly sad. Many praised this unique and well-developed reason for reincarnation, a departure from common genre tropes, which solidifies the central couple as true soulmates who were literally made for each other.
