Blue-gray eyes moved toward the bottom of the dark, unfathomable Infinite Tower. In Green's shared field of vision, the surroundings blurred for an instant, then the familiar Gray Mist Zone appeared once more.
"We've indeed reached the edge of the Infinite Tower. There's no need to explore any farther!"
Standing at the edge of the final step of the black spiral staircase, Green dismissed the blue-gray eyes outside and jumped straight down.
A flash of twisted light flickered in the bottomless Abyss, and Green's figure vanished.

Looking at the Gray Mist shrouding him and the twisted, eerie woods, Green felt the disjointed sensation growing stronger.
He could feel the presence of the objects around him growing fainter, as though everything were about to vanish.
"The rate of dissipation is constantly accelerating. The spatial index of the Gray Mist Zone is gradually returning to normal!"
Even without scanning with the Chip, Green's powerful soul perception let him sense the changes in space.
"Let's first examine the nature of this unknown Rule!"
There was no point in thinking too much. He couldn't stop the Gray Mist Zone from dissipating anyway, so he might as well inspect the Rule Model he had obtained.
