Soaring above the sea, Chen Xi naturally had no idea what the girl beside her was thinking at that moment.
All of her attention was focused on the Lamenter and Tang Xue.
Just what kind of person would dress Tang Xue in that rose dress of unclear significance at a time like this?
A blood-red rose dress...
"Could it have been Wala?"
Startled by her own wild idea, Chen Xi blurted it out.
"Wala?"
Lin Yue's already-chaotic thoughts were interrupted by the words that echoed in her mind.
"Not likely. At this point in time, she was still trapped in the gap within the God-Chosen Trial."
"How could she cross the boundary between worlds just to come to the Spark Federation and put a rose dress on Tang Xue?"
"If Wala had that kind of power, she wouldn't have needed to wait until you accidentally entered that space before descending into the real world again."
After sorting through the situation a little, Lin Yue rejected Chen Xi's absurd guess.
"True." Chen Xi nodded thoughtfully.
With nothing else to do, she tried once more to reestablish the connection between the Lord's Cross and Ademos.
Unfortunately, for some unknown reason, even after leaving the Spark Federation, the Lord's Cross remained completely unresponsive.
It seemed she could only meet Ademos in person first...
Giving up on trying to call him again, Chen Xi and Lin Yue chatted as they sped toward the Black Moon Empire.
In less than half a day, the two of them caught sight of that somewhat familiar old port.
But before she could extend her senses, Chen Xi had already noticed that the barrier spell Ademos had set up had failed.
That meant even the Black Moon Empire had fallen victim to the Lamenter.
"This is bad."
