"If the message the Core Flame left you is true, Okhema has lost the protection of the Dawn Machine..."
"Darkness from all directions will likely engulf the holy city in an instant... the scene is destined to be tragic."
Phainon's expression was serious. Now that things had come to this, they definitely had to return to the "Holy City" of Okhema immediately.
Mimi covered her head, " Phainon... I think I sensed something too..."
"You... felt it too?" Dan Heng asked, puzzled.
"Just now, when Hyacine was speaking... hundreds and thousands of Memoria dissipated from beneath our feet and rose into the sky..."
"The sheer volume and weight of those Remembrance are so great that even through the thick walls of a fortress... they can still hear everything clearly..."
"Birds, nymphs, people... their Remembrance are all mixed together, all... howling."
Phainon stroked his chin. "Could it be due to the fall of the Titan? But that doesn't make any sense..."
"There's no time to investigate the reasons! Without the light of the Dawn Machine, the Holy City will soon be overwhelmed by darkness, and people will be displaced..."
"Everyone, you must return to Earth safely and complete the mission of the Chrysos Heirs. As for me..."
Hyacine stepped forward, her tone firm. " Little Dan, you still have Fagina's Spiritwater on you, right?"
"What...? That was just in case, it's not time yet..."
"No, it's time. Please open the path to the heart of the Vortex of Genesis for me; I can do one last thing for the people of the earth..."
"Return the Core Flame of Aegle to its rightful place, and take over its divine authority... Then, I will remain in the sky to bring protection to the people."
"You... you want to stay here?" March 7th was slightly taken aback. "There must be other options?"
"We'll go with you; it'll be a shortcut," Mimi said.
"No need to think of any other solutions, this... has already solved the problem."
Dan Heng remained silent for a long while, then a sigh escaped his lips, "... I understand."
"... beneath its frenzied dance, the clamor of the festival drowns out the world's heartbeat."
" Spiritwater, open the door!"
"At the end of the Rainbow Bridge, the Child of the Sky will mend the dawn and dusk."
"Lady Tribios's prophecy... has indeed come true."
March 7th's tone was somewhat helpless; were they really just supposed to watch Hyacine leave?
Even watching it a second time, it still feels incredible...
"You'll definitely develop a wonderful rapport with the rivers and Ocean of this world," Hyacine said with a smile.
"It's a pity. March 7th and I can't stay long... We still have companions and a place to belong that we cherish."
" The Astral Express, right?" Hyacine said.
"Not just Little Gray, but also those senior Astral Express Crew members you often mention... I really want to meet them."
Dan Heng nodded. "You two should get along very well."
"Hmm~ I can imagine how happy you three would be traveling together."
"And what about you, Hyacine? Aren't you sad?" March 7th asked.
"Of course. The heart-wrenching sadness and reluctance... I can feel the pain they bring perfectly."
Why force yourself? No one here will mock your true vulnerability.
Hyacine smiled. "But I am the healer of the Duskglow Courtyard, Dan Heng."
"When facing patients suffering from illness, not showing an expression of suppressed sadness is the most basic courtesy."
"Coincidentally, it is this world I love so dearly that is now ailing, so how can I show my sorrow before it?"
Goodbye, everyone...
"Please... you must become heroes who World-Saving. As for the 'blank pages' at the end of the epic, the lives and stories of those ordinary people..."
I will cherish it until the very last moment.
A few days ago, in Okhema's " Duskglow Courtyard "...
Hyacine and Tribbie stood together, and in front of them stood Clementine, the newly joined Healer.
"Miss Hyacine... are you really leaving?"
"Yes! Phainon has already set the date for the expedition. As a descendant of the Sky Heroes, I must be prepared and shoulder my responsibilities."
Clementine hesitated, then continued, "But this newly opened ' Duskglow Courtyard '..."
"Believe in yourself, Clementine! You are an excellent doctor, capable of handling things on your own."
"The patients trust you, and you deserve their trust... That's enough, isn't it?"
Tribbie put her hands on her hips and said, "Miss Clementine's medical skills are amazing—'we' also think you're definitely worthy of being the face of the Duskglow Courtyard!"
"Thank you, Tribbie! I... I will definitely try my best."
"I just... lack Miss Hyacine's confidence and composure. No matter how serious the illness or injury, she always faces it with a smile..."
"Actually... I'm not confident about everything, Clementine."
"I'm just better at hiding my unease—because in my eyes, that's a very important quality."
"It's hard to imagine anything that would make Miss Hyacine feel insecure."
"Then... let me give you an example?" Hyacine suddenly had a bright idea. "Perfect timing, Teacher Tribbie is here too..."
"Huh? It's even related to 'us'?"
"Take the Journey of Flame-Chase for example. Ever since Lady Aglaea began leading Okhema, every Chrysos Heirs who bears the Core Flame —ah, except for Teacher Anaxa —has been personally selected by her."
"I am the only exception... because the heroine Senios designated her own bloodline as the successor to 'The Sky'."
Whether Lady Aglaea recognized my potential... I never knew until the day she left."
"Therefore, I've been quite apprehensive about whether I can fulfill this mission."
After hearing this, Tribbie suddenly laughed, "Hehe..."
" Tribbie Clementine didn't understand.
"Because the answer Little Hyacine wants is actually very simple! Just a little change in perspective will make it clear--"
"Think about it! Given Aya's personality, what if she decides you don't have the qualifications..."
Tribbie tilted her head. "Do you think she wouldn't consider making other plans at all?"
Hyacine laughed along, "Hey~ Thinking about it this way, I really do feel much better."
"I don't possess Lady Aglaea's discerning eye, but... I will never question your beliefs, Miss Hyacine," Clementine said.
"On a whim—before I set off, Tribbie —could you teach me the incantation to recite when returning the Core Flame?"
"I've been staying at the Grove as a teaching assistant and haven't had much opportunity to come to Okhema... The phrases that everyone else knows by heart are still quite unfamiliar to me."
"When it's my turn to return the Core Flame... I don't want to embarrass myself in front of everyone!"
"What's so difficult about that? We can teach you right now! Come on, we'll say a line, and you repeat after us—"
Tribbie stepped forward and extended her hand. "The majestic Twelve Titan."
Following suit, Hyacine repeated, "The pillars that support the world..."
"We seek divinity here..."
"Infuse the physical body with golden blood..."
"Willing to wither and dry up for the Prophecy."
Offer up the " Core Flame," Chrysos Heirs.
