• Mylnar attempts to attack Chen Ran with tiny punches, but he playfully teases and restrains her until she is exhausted. Embarrassed, she hides behind a water glass whenever he looks at her.

• A system notification reveals that Amiya, acting as Chen Ran’s Divine Messenger, was incapacitated and unable to deliver his orders. As a result, the “Preserver” interpreted them independently and told Laterano that the first destination of interstellar travel would be the Holy City of Angels.
• The notification further reports that several Sarkaz boarded the interstellar warship. Exusiai is excitedly exploring the ship, W is impatiently waiting for the journey to end, and Scorpion is trapped aboard against her will.
