But how was that possible?

Jing Yuan stroked his chin, his gaze turning thoughtful.

Logically speaking, to become an Emanator, one needed to receive an Aeon's glance, then be personally granted power by that Aeon.

In a sense, an Emanator's power was a form of acknowledgment from an Aeon.

Of course, certain special cases did exist. For example, in the Xianzhou Alliance, aside from the Marshal, when the other generals inherited the position of Emanator of The Hunt, they did not receive The Reignbow Arbiter's attention in the true sense. Even so, when they obtained the power of an Emanator of The Hunt, they still needed The Reignbow Arbiter's acknowledgment.

Yet in Qingque's account, when she received the power of the Emanator of Miracle bestowed by Lady Madoka, she had not sensed Miracle's attention at any point. Lady Madoka had simply granted the power to her directly.

This was fundamentally different from what Madoka had previously displayed on the surface—summoning an Aeon through prayer and thereby borrowing the Aeon's power.

Calling upon an Aeon's aid through prayer was, in the end, still led by the Aeon. But to grant another person the power of an Emanator directly according to one's own will, without needing the Aeon's true self to acknowledge it—on some level, that was already a mortal body acting in place of divine authority.

Even if Lady Madoka herself was the partial human incarnation of the Aeon Miracle, such an act was still far too outrageous.

No... he was probably overthinking that point. Lady Madoka might indeed have an extremely deep connection with the Aeon Miracle, which
