Old sayings always claimed that the longer one lived, the more unprecedented major events one would witness, things that sounded like pure rumors upon hearing them...

She felt like the fragments inside her mind had even fused a bit out of sheer terror.
Unfortunately, they were all useless ones.
Edna carefully pondered the divine relationships brought to her by these fragments, and no matter how she looked at it, her Black Eye teacher's words felt much more accurate.
