"Where is the entrance again...?"
"It's right here~ It's been so long since I visited the little fairies, even the path to the labyrinth is overgrown with weeds, I can't see anything."
" Lost in the Maze? Goblin? Entrance?"
Xing launched a barrage of three incredibly difficult questions, increasing the number of non-existent Remembrance!
"Don't you remember, buddy? We used to go play with them all the time when we were kids."
Phainon rolled up his sleeves. "Come on, let's get to work! Let's clear away these weeds first."
"Is this the way? It should be right... Ah! Yes, the entrance is over there, in that tree hollow—"
"Just climb along the tree hollow for a short distance, through the narrowest part, and you'll reach their habitat, the ' Lost in the Maze '."
Phainon sighed, "Ha, I really don't know if I can still squeeze through now..."
"Perhaps you should worry about whether the little fairies will reject you. After all, the Lost in the Maze operates on an 'invitation only' system; only innocent children can enter."
"Sounds like some kind of secret Club."
Xing's lips curled up slightly; she had a roaming visa and was never afraid of being refused a visa.
"Being recognized by the fairies of the labyrinth was the highest honor of our childhood."
"Anyway, let's try the tree hole challenge first?"
"Then... would you like to go first?"
"Huh?" Phainon pointed to himself, "Okay, alright, I'll go first then..."
Watching Phainon push aside the weeds and crawl inside, Cyrene smiled and said, "How reckless of you..."
"But now... it's just the two of us left? Shall we continue our previous topic?"
"Actually, ever since I saw the little fairy's cute note, my premonition has grown stronger..."
"Perhaps, when we step back into this long-lost labyrinth, the gears of fate will begin to turn."
Xing didn't understand; once the gears started turning, there was no going back. "Why are you suddenly saying this? You're not the mastermind behind this, are you?"
"Hehe~ If I were you, what would you do?"
"Just kidding, I didn't mean anything by it."
"But even if fate is irreversible, no matter where it takes the world, as long as we can face it together, there's nothing to be afraid of, right?"
Cyrene raised her head, hesitating to speak, "So, if you're willing..."
"Hmm~ Never mind, it's nothing. If fate really does begin to change... then please listen to my request♪"
The narrator, ' Lygus,' intervened again, his voice reaching Xing's ears:
Deep within the Aedes Elysiae lies a "mysterious realm," and now, Xing is accompanying the two there. There, she encounters many... Mimi, "fairy-like" inhabitants?!
"Wow~ You even imitated the tone of surprise perfectly, as expected of you."
Xing replied dismissively, "That guy ' Lygus ' is obviously the mastermind behind Amphoreus. Let's see how she, Galactic Baseballer, resolves this crisis."
Pretend to be weak first, and then suddenly take advantage of the Intellitron when he lowers his guard.
"They actually managed to sneak in, that's impressive... I can't even remember the last time I was here."
Phainon patted the mud off his clothes, Cyrene said from the side, "We were all just kids back then."
"Oh! It's Little Cyrene and Little Bai!"
Not far away, a fairy that looked exactly like Mimi, except for its skin color, flew over.
Anyone who didn't know better would think Mimi had dyed her hair. Xing asked in surprise, "Purple... Mimi? So Mimi is an organization?"
Wow... it's been so long since I've seen you, Mi!
" Little Bai, you've gotten so tall, big, and handsome! I didn't recognize you at all from afar."
Phainon spread his hands. "After all, we've all grown up."
"Hmm... Little Cyrene hasn't changed much, that's amazing!"
"Maybe I'm just like the La La Mi, a little imp in the labyrinth?"
Xing rubbed her forehead, "These names are all so strange..."
"Haha~ That's right. I remember when I first arrived, it took me several days just to remember the names."
" Dora Mi, La La Mi, Mi La Mi, Fa La Mi... Ah, it's been so long since I've seen these adorable little guys."
"Back then, we danced and sang around the campfire, dreaming about how wonderful our future journey would be... Time has passed, and if I hadn't come back here, those memories would have been completely forgotten."
" Little Bai, you're really bold! You kept saying you 'would never forget,' but after all this time, you've already forgotten everyone."
"Alright, alright. He's just imitating the sentimental bard in the story, so he won't really forget everyone."
"We've come here to retrieve the ' Oracle Card.' Do you know where it is?" Phainon asked.
" The Oracle Card! Of course I know it; the village chief told us to bring it back."
"Village Chief... Dodora Mi?" Cyrene asked, puzzled. "What does it need the Oracle Card for? If it wants a divination, it can just tell me directly."
"I'm not sure about that... but the village chief seems very keen to meet you in person."
"Let me think, it should be here now... I know! Everyone, follow me."
"The tree trunk is wet, be careful not to slip!"
Following in the footsteps of the La La Mi, Xing also met the village chief of the " Lost in the Maze ".
"Village Chief! Little Cyrene and Little Bai are back--"
Upon seeing the Dodora Mi, Hoshino felt a sharp pain in her mind, followed by a non-existent Remembrance.
She saw Ye Yan standing in her spot, talking to Phainon, Cyrene, and Dodora Mi.
etc...
Xing seemed to sense something. This identical stance—could it be that her perspective was now Ye Yan's?! Was this her bond with " Eternity "?
Before she knew it, Cyrene had already drawn Oracle Card.
"Wow, I didn't expect to get so many responses... Let's flip over Oracle Card and see how the future will unfold."
Xing subconsciously drew the first card – " The Weaver ".
"The ' Weaver ' card is the Romance thread that connects us to the ' Cocoon of Gold,' weaving everyone's fate into a shimmering golden tapestry that leads to a most glorious and romantic future..."
"It began with a waltz of weaving and swords, so let it end with the same elegance."
A familiar voice echoed in Xing's ears, and she vaguely sensed that the power of the " Eternity Oath of Beauty " was also increasing...
"How magnificent... The Golden Weaver, judging from her name, she must be from a wealthy and noble family."
"Such a noble status is probably beyond the reach of someone like me..."
Phainon drew his second card – " The Gatekeeper ".
"This is the ' Gatekeeper,' who can point people to the right path amidst countless Passage. They shield themselves from all distractions, so they can listen more attentively to the whispers within the temple!"
"It seems like I really heard an echo from the temple, mixed with... children's songs?"
"It evokes a sense of solemnity, yet also a feeling of closeness..."
