"You know ?"
Calm and gentle, completely different from the tone used to scold the giant earlier, yet for Xia, who was still staring at the pile of debris in a daze, Fu Qian’s words brought imnse shock, and the mystery surrounding the two figures in front of her soared once again.
Even using "know" instead of "recognize" in the question subtly revealed a change in psychology.
Unlike the usual pride of the Fallen Star Clan, she unconsciously placed herself in a position of scrutiny.
"Why did you co here?"
Unfortunately, as everyone knows, when you lower your status voluntarily, it often results in being lowered further.
The Knight, who appeared quite amiable, had no intention of answering and instead continued to ask in the sa tone.
"Um... I don’t know either."
Sure enough, Xia chose to respond decisively after only two seconds of hesitation.
"I’ve never been to this place before, I don’t even know where this is. I was doing sothing else and suddenly found myself here without realizing it."
As she spoke, it seed she rembered sothing, and hastily removed the chains from her body.
"And then it was like this, tangled up with this, carrying a stone tablet—oh, and thanks for the help."
Describing the incomprehensible accident and predicant, Xia quickly rembered sothing and added her gratitude.
Although the conflict just ended too quickly, she clearly judged that the giants were troubleso and knew her situation would have been dire if no one had helped.
"So what were you originally doing?"
This ti Fu Qian finally nodded slightly, but at the sa ti indicated a little and still inquired.
"... I was trying to descend onto soone else because I discovered a very strange door."
In this regard, Xia hesitated slightly and then told the truth.
...
Indeed.
Fu Qian, as a mber of the behind-the-scenes hand, naturally knew very well how Xia ended up in this place.
The reason for the extra question was just to confirm the credibility slightly.
Facts proved that Lady Xia did not have the bad habit of being overly clever. Faced with two unfathomable mysterious figures, she chose to be honest everywhere.
"Are there other doors?"
Although understanding Xia emphasized the strange nature, it might not be without hope of being pointed out, Fu Qian seed oblivious and began to confirm Rielertin’s situation.
"There are no real doors... but indeed so changes appeared, the line between nightmares and reality beca blurred, and even things ca out from inside. We have been trying to cope."
Xia cooperatively shared the intel with the Fallen Star.
"So how are you coping?"
However, Fu Qian didn’t easily let her off the hook, showing a very inquisitive nature.
"It’s not easy, because often we don’t even know what has co out, and internal opinions are sowhat divided... but I think we will still persist and do our best to resist the erosion of the nightmare."
With a slightly bitter smile, Xia shook her head.
"Are you here to solve this problem, sirs?"
But in the next mont, she mustered her courage to ask again, her face full of anticipation.
Unfortunately, Fu Qian didn’t even acknowledge her again and instead turned to look at the Witch beside him.
The latter maintained a relaxed posture from start to finish, never deliberately making a stern face, yet the dignity was indescribably profound.
Subconsciously following suit and gazing over, Xia didn’t even dare to hope that this figure would respond to her previously, but at this mont she felt a strong impulse hoping the other party would speak, even if just one word.
Unfortunately, not even a single word ca.
In a serious manner, the Knight adopted a guardian’s posture, and the Witch evidently chose to cooperate, her deanor flawless.
Even now, with just a slight nod to the Knight, as if acknowledging his request.
"Let’s send you back first."
Receiving authorization, Fu Qian imdiately turned back and concluded.
...
It was a notice, not a suggestion, clearly leaving no room for negotiation.
No matter how dull, Xia could confirm this point.
From their appearance until now, the two before her undoubtedly maintained a very high status.
Even though they initially dealt with the giant and now planned to send her back, helping her in essence, they didn’t care for her gratitude—of course, nor did they allow rejection.
"Thank you."
Taking one last look around, Xia knew this place, though mysterious, was clearly not sothing she could handle at the mont, so she did not resist and softly expressed her thanks.
As expected, there was no response, and before a breath was even finished, the scene before her started to blur.
No wonder the person who easily defeated the giant, in this place regarded as a desperate situation in her eyes, managed to tear open a gap without even moving a finger.
Indeed, standing there throughout, not even a finger moved.
Of course, rather than focusing on this, Xia still hoped the face under the pointed hat could say sothing.
Unfortunately, until the scene completely shattered, she didn’t hear anything.
"Give my regards to Principal Glenn."
In contrast from another direction, soone added an extra sentence.
...
"There’s nothing particularly special about her temporarily, just like the dream she is in."
That Fu Qian didn’t even move a finger was for a reason, it was the Witch who acted, her movents rely blocked by him.
And after casually sending Xia off, the Witch’s transcendent deanor imdiately softened slightly, giving remarks while looking at Fu Qian.
"And she also thinks it might be possible to hold on... In short, the stability of Rielertin is not bad, we may need to see how things fernt subsequently."
Fu Qian nodded and added, acknowledging that there is still no gain at the mont.
Moreover, from this point, we can see that the forr agent brother was truly an insignificant figure.
After dying at his hands, it didn’t even affect that Dream much.
"Rielertin... you’ve been a patient of that Principal before?"
The Witch repeated a line at this mont, seemingly finding Fu Qian’s coined term quite good.
"I have, under the na Herbert and the Dark Moon Apostle."
It’s not surprising for the Witch to think of this, as the core of her last sentence was not about the greeting, but to emphasize that she knew Principal Glenn.
Why emphasize this, you ask?
Simply because this point is highly representative, and it can help deduce one’s "identity", to prevent Lady Xia from racking her brain after returning.
With her rather acceptable perception, it shouldn’t be difficult to think about it, realizing it’s the great Dark Moon despite past grievances, still showing concern for the world.
"Very well, then let’s move on, Knight, to see that place they long for."
For Fu Qian randomly spreading his teachings, the Witch evidently did not find it overstepping.
In fact, when they made that cooperative gesture, her attitude was already very clear.
Not only that, this ti gazing in the direction the giant moved before, the Witch casually ordered, truly making Fu Qian lead the way.
"Ti is running short, sothing is accumulating."
As she spoke, she extended her hand, as if catching the falling invisible dust.
