This jade... really was my golden finger!
No...
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
Calling it a golden finger wasn't quite accurate, either.
More precisely,
it was a few blessings that Earth from her previous life had bestowed upon her as a parting gift when she transmigrated and departed.
It had no fixed inclination.
Nor was it some clearly defined thing with a specific purpose.
It was even less like the systems in novels that, once bound, gave their hosts a definite direction...
It was merely a collection of immense energy, the embodiment of rules.
A special marvel from a higher-dimensional space.
After being compressed infinitely, it had taken on a state of lethargy.
It also existed to serve Little Griseo.
It shifted only according to her will.
It would awaken, display its value, and reveal its true power only because of her wishes!
It was a consumable.
"So... what can you do? Can you be a little more specific?"
"What should I do, then? Can you tell me...?"
"..."
Little Griseo's eyes gradually lit up.
She was very interested, with a hint of delight as well.
That was because this golden finger was even more powerful than she had expected.
Information continued to flow in. She understood more and more!
Precisely because of that,
she seemed to no longer feel troubled.
A small opening didn't count as an opening.
It seemed she didn't need to wait long, nor did she need to simply follow the plot onward.
If it really was feasible...
perhaps she could take more active initiative and push everything forward!
P.S. 1: Here's the second update. Let's keep going~~
Main Text: 003. Ark, the battleship girl, Little Griseo. /Yay!/
Simply put,
the reason this jade had only shown signs of activity now
was fundamentally because of Little Griseo herself.
Although Little Griseo was slightly stronger than her original counterpart,
she had also been protected far too well, which left her somewhat inexperienced with the ways of the world.
Being inexperienced with the ways of the world meant that she had no clear wishes and no definite desires.
Even though she knew very well that the Honkai was hateful and terrifying, threatening human civilization,
she had merely stayed in the Sea of Quanta, far from the battlefield, and heard about it from other people.
How much could she really feel it?
She had been very young when her parents sacrificed themselves.
By the time she had grown a little older, her subconscious had instead already grown accustomed to it.
She had grown accustomed to her older brothers and sisters coming and going.
She had also grown accustomed to hearing that so many people from the Moth of the Fire—or people around the world—had died because of the Honkai.
That didn't mean she was cold-hearted.
It was just...
she didn't really understand it.
She had no concept of it.
If one really had to put it into words,
Little Griseo's first growth
actually came during the period after she entered the shelter, when she was about to fall into cryogenic freezing.
That was a great parting between life and death.
Even Kosma had disappeared...
Her second growth came during the Ark's first voyage.
Alone for the first time in the vast universe, she had to overcome every difficulty by herself.
She began to become independent.
Her third growth came not long ago.
During the First Flame-Chaser gathering,
Kevin, Su, Hua, and even Cangxuan and Danzhu...
had all expressed their thoughts to Little Griseo, either openly or indirectly.
