"So, you're letting the residents of Moon City make wishes to you, accumulating progress and desires this way...?" Neph raised an eyebrow, observing Klein had become a "Miracle Invoker." "I have no objection, but making wishes one by one isn't quite 'miraculous,' is it?"

"Yes, I know," Klein's voice was calm and even, seemingly still caught up in the instability of his recent promotion, but it lacked much of the emotion Neph remembered. "However, fulfilling the collective's wishes requires me to spend time accumulating those wishes, so it's better to let you know first."

"You still have an option," Neph said, pursing her lips and forcing a smile. "Colin is still waiting for someone to treat him... That's a 'miracle' too."

Klein stared at her for a few seconds, then suddenly sighed, shook his head, and said:

"Actually, if you don't want to laugh, there's no need to force yourself to— Neph, you don't need to put on a show of forced smiles in front of me."

He extinguished the smile on Neph's face with a single sentence, Neph withdrew that forced, excessive smile, only sighing:

"I'm just... Mr. Fool, even a blind man could see that your condition after the promotion isn't good..."

"It's not as bad as you think," Klein shook his head. "I'm just not used to it... I don't understand, how did you manage that? The image embodied by faith and the spirit contained within Beyonder Characteristic are locked in a tug-of-war in my consciousness. My ego can only exist in this balance, yet I dare not make any major moves... How did you manage to keep everything as normal?"

They looked at each other, then Neph smiled and said, "You guessed it, didn't you?"

Klein shook his head, then nodded, and asked thoughtfully, "What you're facing isn't the same as what I'm facing, is it?"

Neph nodded.

Klein hesitated for a few seconds, then spoke again:

"But I believe that there's no such thing as a free lunch in this world."

"If you seem to have it easier than me, then there's definitely a problem hidden in your Pathway that none of us have noticed..."

Neph didn't speak. She quietly observed Klein, and after a long while, asked, "Has the seal on your memories been broken?"

He nodded.

"Outer Deity..." Neph exhaled, "They don't lose their humanity, because they never possessed humanity to begin with."

Her words carried an ominous implication, and Klein's eyelids twitched. Just as he was about to speak, Neph added:

"I don't know what kind of person my mother was in the past, nor do I know how long it will take for me to become similar to or even the same as Her, but I believe that both you and my My Lord can clearly feel one thing..."

Even after I stopped seeing this place as a 'story,' I never looked at myself or others as equals.

Klein looked at her thoughtfully, then hesitated before speaking:

"But comparing you to Outer Deity is probably inappropriate... Hmm, your state is perhaps closer to that of Amon? A naturally born Mythical Creature..."

He pondered for a moment, then couldn't help but ask, "Speaking of which, what exactly happened to Amon? How did He maintain His own stability?"

"Ah..." Neph blinked, "In this version of the story, you don't seem to have spent much time with Amon..."

She paused, her expression somewhat unusual, and then said, "I know what you're thinking. You believe that Amon maintains balance by using his clones to worship himself, Uniqueness characteristic of Mythical Creature born with uniqueness. Is that right?"

Klein nodded, then asked doubtfully, "Isn't that right?"

Neph spoke with a strange expression:

"I don't know if it's right or wrong for others, but for Amon, it's definitely wrong."

"Amon's current image is likely the generally accepted image determined by a vote of all His incarnations."

"This is the best image that all Amon agrees on..."

Klein looked at her, somewhat confused, and repeated, "Vote?"

>p/<: continued, nodding to Funa.

>p/<. Although the state of being is unique and independent, it is controlled by a certain identity, and you are not the same as the mysterious one.

>p/<. Thoughts are individual, each possessing its own unique personality; they refer to the independent nature of these individuals.

>p/<. The influence of all will not be the same, even if you and the next level are the same, even if you are the secret, His influence from the state of being will weaken the ability to control His identity, and His identity will not be created in the order of 1, I know in the Mona."

>p/<. The final decision can be made through a vote in the inner circle. At that time, there was no unified opinion, so He gave Him a chance. It was not a complete suppression by violence, but rather a kind of independent identity on the other side.

>p/<". The 'normal' is completely He, the pictograph is recognized by all Mona. This is the reason for the decision of this vote, the pictograph before Mona.

>p/<: His expression was quite complex, as if he had thought of something, and he stared blankly at Enlake.

>p/<. It is said that I must..."

>p/<. Going there is not always normal, and there is fear. The 'normal' in the time of the Mongols is completely different. This is the same idea that could be imagined.

>p/<". The line should be, you think of your own belief in secret, but: "To supplement again," Funai spread her hands.

>p/<. She hesitated for a moment, then said it clearly, but she dared not say it again before she had made it clear. Now, she couldn't say for sure.

>p/<"... Besides, let me try preparing first, hmm? I guess you": He nodded, Enlake, "The impact of this part is too great."

>p/<". The troublesome Mr. 'Hanging Down' looked for you, perhaps: He opened his mouth and breathed a few words with pleasure, then suddenly smiled.

>p/<"? He gave you the 'Staff of the Sea' and asked you to do it": Suddenly, he realized what was pointing at him, and then, in a brief moment of stunned silence, he was only a fleeting thought of Funa.

"? Enlake, this is something I can't help but laugh at, I'm not a special case...

</p>

Klein simply smiled and asked, "Do you have time now?"

"Probably," Neph shrugged. "I abandoned the people of Moon City and City of Silver outside, but then I thought about it and realized that was such a terrible thing to do, so..."

"What did you do?" Klein looked at her expectantly. "First, I helped them adapt to life outside."

"How could you think of me like that?" Neph glared at him. "I sent my Pet to help, so it's practically like I went too, right?"

"Pet..." Klein's lips twitched. "Ais... wait, didn't you forbid it from talking?"

Neph smiled and said, "I give my permission now."

Meeting Klein's questioning gaze, Neph shrugged and said, "After thinking about it carefully, it seems a bit abnormal for Messenger of the God not to be able to speak?"

Klein did not comment on the matter; he simply shook his head and asked:

What do you know about the Seven Lights of the Spirit World?

Neph paused for a moment, then frowned and asked, "Are you going to see Seven Lights?"

"What's wrong?" Klein asked instinctively, a hint of nervousness in his voice.

Neph shook her head and explained:

"It's nothing, it's just that I didn't expect... well, well, Seven Lights does have a chance of knowing a lot of information I don't know, after all, he's the Spirit World Administrator personally appointed by the Lord of the Spirit World..."

"Administrator?" Klein repeated the word. "Your choice of words is as consistent as ever... Hmm, puzzling yet surprisingly reasonable."

Neph's eyes flickered, then she leaned closer to Klein, a gleam in her eyes:

"Mr. Fool... since you're going to see Seven Lights anyway, why not take me with you?"

"That way, if I need any information in the future, I can ask them..."

Klein nodded indifferently and pondered for a moment before saying:

"So, in exchange..."

"Perhaps you would like to provide more details about the administrators?"

Neph shook her head and then nodded.

"My understanding of the Seven Lights isn't as extensive as you might think. If you want more detailed information, it's best to ask them directly."

"Their rank should be that of Archangel, capable of coordinating and mobilizing information in the Spirit World, thus appearing knowledgeable, and many people would seek their guidance."

However, their knowledge is limited to what happened after their Oldest One awakening, because that Oldest One awakening destroyed the Spirit World, and the Seven Lights perished along with Spirit World. They are unaware of what occurred before that.

"Yes, I know what you're thinking of. The reason why Emperor Roselle's Diary remains unsolved is because the Spirit World doesn't contain the corresponding knowledge."

"However, I think this is only temporary. You should have seen those 'transmigrators' stored on ' Sefirah Castle.' If you release them and let them bring their own knowledge to the new world, then as the number of users of that knowledge increases, the corresponding information will eventually be recorded in the Spirit World."

"By then, Emperor Roselle's Diary will naturally be deciphered."

She paused, then blinked slightly. "If Bernadette only finds out what her father wrote in his diary by then, it won't be my problem, okay?"

"It's really none of your business," Klein glared at her. "You're making me think that you're dragging your feet on teaching Bernadette Chinese because you're waiting for me to release those people."

"Absolutely not," Neph swore, raising her hand. "I never thought of that. My promise was that if she wanted to know the contents of the diary after returning from her father's Mausoleum, I would tell her. But she refused after returning from the Mausoleum."

She paused, then added:

"However, I must admit that I didn't actually have such a strong desire to Church her—although I really wanted to see Emperor Roselle break down, ultimately, he was a father."

"Otherwise, I would have done everything I could to teach Bernadette Chinese, instead of giving up so easily like this."

>p/<: He opened his mouth and sighed with regret, then looked at her with a hint of sadness. Enlake stared at her, saying...

>p/<... but... what did you leave behind after that, and it's a regrettable thing for people."

>p/<"... You, my sister and brother"

>p/<. The quiet, deathly stillness of the soul, a kind of emotion that seemed to possess her, her body now shimmering with light, was only a fleeting, silent gaze. Enlake remained unmoved.

>p/<: The words on the platform were followed by the abandoned Zhiming, and Mizuko swallowed hard. Funa

>p/<"! Is there a new name for me now? You haven't told me yet, right? Yes, that's right."

>p/<"? What": asked her, as she listened to the gentle, renewed breath around Enlake.

>p/<"? Ah, what's that called? Listen to you, you fool... You've given me so many names, you're better than God: I've only just finished speaking, that "Heavenly Ashes" is about her.

>p/<: Dao Xingti shook his head, a hint of resentment appearing in Enlake's expression.

"... Is it strange that I went into the ghost's den and had something inserted into it? If you're the one who claims to be the ghost, then this is actually a good thing, I think."

>p/<. Thoughts fell into Funa's trap

>p/<: With a deep sigh, Funa opened her mouth, and the unusually mysterious "servant" quickly asked Enlake, who hadn't been chatting for long.

>p/<. Three portions, only, total, this, ultimately, finished -- limited, often, non-selective, you, on, special, extraordinary, 1, column, sequence, in "

>p/<. The extraordinary nature of that kind of person, you recommend it, otherwise I still... I've already gotten it, but I can't... 'The Lord's Secret' position, that's too far-fetched, directly coming from the extraordinary nature of that kind of person, you're in the middle of it all.

>p/<... two additional copies to "

>p/<". Sister, if you have a double, let me ask you..."

"Stanton Endao said, 'Is it possible to continue?' 'However, I don't care what you think,' she said, shaking her head slightly. 'I'm just asking, let's not talk about this anymore.'"

"Is this the identity you've acquired?"

"That's obvious," Klein nodded, smiling as he asked, "What, do you have a problem with my new name?"

"So," Neph said seriously, "You said your name is Adam."

"...?" Klein glanced at her silently. "You'd better have a reason to convince me."

Neph thought for a moment and asked, "What if I don't have it?"

Klein replied emotionlessly, "Make one up."

Neph lowered her head and pondered, and after a moment, she actually started making things up:

"As you know, the ' Lord of the Mysteries ' withheld some of you to use as resurrection vessels."

"And by using Adam's name, you can subtly connect with the ' Primordial God Almighty ' through this symbolism, and through the ' Primordial God Almighty ' you can fight against the resurgence of the ' Lord of the Mysteries '..."

Klein took a breath and spoke sincerely:

"I have a feeling now—if you hadn't been caught by your 'mother,' the Pathway you would have taken might have been predetermined, beyond your control."

>p/<"... I almost lost the letter, you know this is what you're writing, don't you want me to say"

>p/<: A genuine, pretentious, and shy smile, a fake and pretentious act, was revealed by Lufna.

>p/<". You're so kind, it's amazing how you do this, it's just what I wanted to do."

>p/<". Roll": She opened her mouth wide, her eyes fixed on Enlake.

>p/<. "I've prepared a gift, but I'm afraid you'll take a step further in wielding power, sir. -- You haven't given me anything like this yet," he stopped Funa. "Oh, don't rush!"
