Only by looking at this mont, the "Moon" in the sky above bore a significant difference from the real Moon.
The rotating, ghostly purple wasn’t part of reality but rather sothing deeper in the layers of the world, resembling infinite layers of symbols or energy.
It was a symbol of "∞".
And at this mont, what Renie summoned was the Authority that represented her true form, her true form was watching reality from this place in the Spirit Realm, separated by a gap from the Spirit Realm.
"Fisher...."
Renie gently murmured, then, following her hand that caressed the surface of Fisher and connected his body to her Authority.
"Buzz!"
At the instant when the Authority touched Fisher, the entire sea was covered by a ghostly purple light, and their figures were no longer visible.
...
...
"Where am I?"
In the faint haze, a thought suddenly appeared in Fisher’s consciousness, as if in one mont there was nothingness, and in the next, this thought naturally arose.
He wasn’t in a coma; it’s just that it seed like his consciousness was no longer that of Fisher, lacking his thought process, and operated in a aningless pathway.
Only because of this thought did he revert to being the concept of "Fisher".
He was confused, wanting to observe his surroundings, to feel the world around him, but found it impossible.
To see required eyes, to perceive light, but it seed he had no eyes.
To feel required skin, required nerves, but he seemingly had no nerves.
To breathe required a nose, required lungs, but he had no organs.
He had nothing, only this hazy consciousness.
"What do you want?"
At this mont, a genderless voice suddenly echoed in his mind, as if it were his own thought, yet it appeared exceptionally abrupt.
Although Fisher couldn’t perceive the surrounding world, he still had mory, and quickly recognized the owner of this voice,
"Erwin?"
However, Erwin didn’t respond to Fisher, rely continued to ask,
"What do you want?"
Fisher wanted to answer, but didn’t even have organs like a mouth or throat to speak.
He had to think in his mind,
"I want to speak."
But like every life form, it seed he was trapped in so kind of shackle, or rather, this shackle had always existed, only now did he realize.
Life always has a structure before it has perception, just like one has ears before wanting to hear, has feet before wanting to run, has eyes before wanting to see, has a brain before having imagination.
Conversely, if a person without a mouth wants to speak, it is impossible to grow a mouth, because this is the natural order.
Life or matter is primary, is the key.
But eerily, contrary to this natural order, when Fisher thought this way, a mouth started to grow where one could consider his "face".
He was eager to speak, but found he couldn’t hear himself speak, nor could he feel where his mouth was, or how it moved.
Just as he wanted to feel these sensations, ears and sensory nerves grew on him.
And it wasn’t until this mont that he realized, it seed he had grown too much.
"I..."
His whole body grew mouths and ears, when he spoke, the mouths all opened, and the thunderous sound was captured by the hundreds of ears on his body, shaking his consciousness painfully.
In his mind, Erwin’s voice seed to ring out again, reminding Fisher,
"You’re asking for too much, more than you actually need."
"I only wanted one mouth, two ears... wait, it seems they’ve grown on my feet."
"It doesn’t matter where they grow; as long as you wish, they can grow anywhere."
Fisher paused slightly, and the mouths and ears moved bit by bit back to his face.
"Is this the power brought by the Life Completion Manual knowledge?"
Erwin’s voice expressed affirmation, she said,
"Rember that mountain climber? When he ascended the first mountain, he reached the summit with a human body. But upon reaching the second mountain, the human body could no longer bear his climb, so he changed his form...
"What you seek now is rely the need for climbing the first mountain, you need to hear and speak, which are human hearing and speaking. When it’s far, you can’t hear; speaking for long, the mouth becos dry, these are all limitations of human organs.
"This ans that even if you push them to their limits, they cannot satisfy your increasingly higher Rank needs, cannot satisfy you climbing the second mountain."
Fisher contemplated, and soon, his indistinct form gradually beca clear, and he transford back into his black-haired Nalikado hybrid appearance.
But that was all; no matter how handso, with this body, he was still rely a Zeroth Rank human.
He looked at his muscular build, but in his Mythical Rank vision, it still appeared incredibly fragile, and he couldn’t help but wonder,
"But I had already entered Mythical Rank before, yet I still maintained my human form, and did incredible things, seeming completely unrestricted, isn’t this contradictory to what you’re saying?"
"Where does your physical enhancent co from?"
"From..."
Listening to Erwin’s counter-question, Fisher suddenly hesitated to speak.
