Lilia looked at the trio's strange expressions, feeling rather puzzled.
But she paid them no mind.
As far as Lilia was concerned, she had other things on her mind now.
Just a moment ago, some knowledge had suddenly appeared in her little head.
The knowledge seemed to concern some kind of liquor, but she did not really understand it.
Yet when that knowledge appeared, an image of someone abruptly surfaced in her mind.
This person wore a loose white robe, and everything above his neck was shrouded in a bright orb of light, leaving his features indistinct.
He seemed to be saying something, but his voice was difficult to make out.
The image vanished as quickly as it had appeared.
By the time Lilia reacted, she had completely forgotten what the voice that had just sounded in her mind was like.
She could not even recall the features faintly visible within the orb of light, though her memory of everything below his neck remained clear.
"Who was that guy? Why did he suddenly pop up?"
"I can't remember, but he feels kind of familiar. So weird..."
The Doll Girl thumped her head, trying to remember more clearly.
But the more she thumped, the blurrier the image in her memory became, until all she could recall was a headless body.

The Phoenix Ancestor's trio discussed it among themselves.
Just then, Lilia walked toward the three of them.
