"Hiss..." Boothill gasped, this question really stumped him, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"Honey, this information gap caught me completely off guard. The Nameless and the Church of Eternity seem to have a pretty good relationship."
Boothill never had any concrete contact with the Church of Eternity, so how should he evaluate it?
"Brother, anyone who listens to the Interastral Peace Broadcast regularly knows that some guy beat Oswaldo Schneider of the [ Market Development Department ] so badly that he suffered multiple bone fractures. It was truly gratifying."
"But you might not know that the person who beat up that little cutie is from the Church of Eternity... Although I've never had any contact with the Church, do I need to elaborate on the significance of this action?"
"If you dare to attack the company, then we're brothers!"
Dan Heng finally understood: Boothill and the [ Market Development Department ] had a grudge.
If you ask him how he would evaluate the Church of Eternity... well, that's a thought-provoking question.
Apart from their leader ( Ye Yan ), they are a bunch of guys who would go crazy for [ Eternity ].
At Dreamflux Reef, Ye Yan and March 7th arrived in front of a hotel doorman with light blue hair.
"Hey! Didn't I see you in my dream?"
"Oh, it's the same guest from before, we meet again!" Misha waved to March 7th, then looked at Ye Yan beside her.
"And a new friend... Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Misha, the hotel doorman." Misha greeted Ye Yan with a welcoming bow.
Ye Yan.
"... Um?"
March 7th's gaze shifted to the cartoon clock figure beside Misha.
" Clockie! Old friends and new friends, let's give each other a high five!"
" Miss March 7th still has a childlike heart!"
"You've got it backwards, Teacher Ye Yan. It would be strange if you could even see [ Clockie ]!"
After complaining about Ye Yan, March 7th took another look at the lively 3D cartoon clock figure.
"You are... Memory Zone Meme?"
"No. Clockie is my good friend, and our home is here," Misha explained.
"And how did these two guests arrive? Logically speaking, this dream realm shouldn't be open to the public... Could it be [ Mianmian ]?"
"Wait..." March 7th caught the key phrase, "You said, this is your home?"
"Yes. I'll go home after my work in the dream world is finished. Transportation used to be quite convenient, but ever since we couldn't travel freely, it's always been Mianmian who carries people back and forth between the two dream worlds."
"That [ Mianmian ] is... Can you describe what it looks like?" March 7th was very concerned.
" Mianmian is a Memory Zone Meme. It used to look fierce, with many large eyes. But not long ago, it seems to have had a little cosmetic enhancement done by a silver-haired guest."
"It's actually very obedient; Gallagher has always been the one taking care of Mianmian."
Ye Yan leaned close to March 7th's ear and whispered, " Miss March 7th, judging from the description, that Memory Zone Meme is undoubtedly [Death]. Although the Family calls it Nightmare, among the residents here... the truth seems to be quite different."
"Wow, you'd rather give a recap than tell us the truth, it's always you, Teacher Ye Yan."
Ye Yan's 'image' grew even more 'impressive' in March 7th's mind.
Although she had never seen the true appearance of the Memory Zone Meme, it was easy to tell from Misha's words that it had been beautified by Fulisina.
" Teacher Ye Yan, what do you think of the Priestess's taste?"
"Hmm... I have a similar appreciation for the beauty of ' Eternity '."
"Huh? Doesn't that mean we have to transform that Memory Zone Meme into the shape of Milk Tea?!"
Ye Yan almost lost his balance. What had turned March 7th into this state...? Could it really be from drinking too much milk tea?
To link aesthetics with milk tea is a joke... How could He be such Aeon?
"Death? How can there be death in a dream? Mianmian is rather fierce and occasionally brings innocent travelers back by mistake, but it would never harm anyone."
Misha vouched for [ Mianmian's] personality, and it has become less fierce now.
"In that case, has it brought any guests back in the last day or two? Actually, we're investigating a disappearance that occurred during a dream."
"I see... Then you should talk to Gallagher, but he's currently receiving visitors from the Oak Family and specifically asked everyone not to disturb him."
"Hmm, Mr. Ye Yan, the person you're looking for... could it be Miss Robin?" Misha guessed.
" Miss Robin? She's here too?"
At first, March 7th was quite unexpected, but after thinking about it, something felt off.
Logically speaking, the only confirmed 'victim' of Penacony Miss Robin; Firefly and the others were simply ruled missing by the [ The Family ].
"If you two are looking for Miss Robin, I can show you the way. She has instructed that she can receive guests from outside."
"Then Misha. Also, we're looking for companions—a red-haired woman and a gray-haired girl. Do you remember them?"
On March 7th, he remained true to his original aspiration and continued to inquire about the whereabouts of Himeko and Hoshi.
"Well, that's all... But rest assured, Dreamflux Reef isn't big, and it's not as luxurious as Dreamland, but its security is top-notch."
Misha had a good idea. "How about this? Since this is your first time visiting Dreamflux Reef, I'll be your guide. I'll help you find your companions first, and then we'll go visit Miss Robin together."
"Miss has gone to Mrs. Grisha's to visit the children; she won't be leaving for a while, so she should have enough time."
To make sure things weren't completely unclear on March 7th, Ye Yan talked to her about the current situation again.
"In this way, the mystery surrounding Penacony's murder has been solved. However, the mastermind's motives... have become even more perplexing."
" Teacher Ye Yan, I don't care about these things. Didn't Xing mention before that she saw a Clockie that 'only' she could see, right?"
Ye Yan nodded.
"But we can both see it, don't you think that's strange? Someone who has lost their past Remembrance can still have a childlike heart, or maybe it's just that I'm 'exceptionally gifted'."
"But... why can Teacher Ye Yan see [ Clockie ]?!"
This is the point that March 7th finds most incomprehensible: the Aeon has a concept of "childlike innocence"?! Don't be ridiculous. If it were " Elation, "Aha she could barely believe it.
Seeing Ye Yan narrow his eyes, March 7th couldn't help but complain, "Oh my god, Teacher Ye Yan, you... sigh~ we don't even know what to say."
"Wait, you're not a fake Teacher Ye Yan, are you?!"
Xing had once mentioned to her that she had encountered a villain Ye Yan during " Golden Hour," who seemed to be a Masked Fools named Sparkle.
"Huh?" Ye Yan looked bewildered. It seemed he really should give her less milk tea in the future.
No, Miss March 7th is still young, it's normal for her to be a little Curiosity, that's understandable. We can't rule out the possibility that Aha secretly switched her milk tea.
" Miss March 7th, why don't you try looking at it another way? It's precisely because of the [ Aeon's] special nature that it can see many things that ordinary people can't perceive... For example, the Clockie chatting with Misha not far away."
After a moment of silence, March 7th's eyes suddenly cleared.
"Oh yeah, that makes sense..."
