Angel nodded lightly at Laplace's answer. "I do have some ideas."
Angel said, "Can you tell me about them?"
Laplace did not answer immediately. Instead, she turned to look at Gleipnir, and the two gazed into each other's eyes. Their eyes flickered, as though they were crossing swords, yet also as though they were making a final confirmation.
After a long while, Gleipnir let out a soft sigh.
Laplace then looked at Angel. "An authority related to memory."
Angel looked at Laplace, then at Gleipnir... From their exchange of glances just now, it was clear that the two of them might not have been in agreement. In the end, Laplace's opinion had prevailed.
Of course, that was merely what Angel had observed.
He could not be sure whether they had truly disagreed, or whether they had put on an act for him.
Still, Laplace had previously said that she would discuss it with Gleipnir before giving him an answer. Yet in the end, even though Gleipnir clearly had objections, Laplace had overruled them.
That made Angel rather curious about what Gleipnir's opinion had been.
"An authority related to memory... That should not be a problem. Dreamwalking Wonderland itself involves a similar authority." Angel paused. "But you already have Memory Garden. Why are you still so fixated on an authority related to memory?"
Laplace said evenly, "This memory is not that memory. Moreover, the authority I hope to obtain may not involve memory alone, but other... unknown domains as well."
In other words, what Laplace wanted was not merely an ordinary memory authority. The authority she sought might span multiple domains and possess a broader scope of authority and responsibility.
If that was the case, Angel understood.
"I understand. We can discuss the specific details later." At this moment, knowing the
