"It really is you!" the rmaid exclaid with renewed vigour upon hearing Ronald declare himself as a "Wuling Person". Her gaze swept over the negotiation table behind her and then focused entirely on Ronald.
"I’ve seen that record in the Biography Hall; Lady Hailberth shared that magical and interesting experience! Wuling Person, tell , what happened after Lady Hailberth left?" she eagerly asked.
"..."
Strange, utterly strange.
Ronald had already felt that the rmaid’s mood was overly optimistic.
Now, with such a deanor, it was even more evident to Ronald that she was indeed out of the ordinary.
Recalling the founders of Luduo from the past, a bold idea suddenly struck him:
"You also have connections with..."
"Shh—" Ronald was just about to ntion the other party’s freedom to enter the Naless Sea when the rmaid quickly placed her finger over his lips.
Then, with a crafty smile, she whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear:
"Wuling Person, it’s good enough that you understand," she said.
"Don’t tell anyone else, okay~~"
Ronald raised his eyebrow.
The rmaid’s reaction was a total acknowledgnt of his guess.
The Naless Sea, this special and enigmatic world, was indeed full of countless secrets and opportunities.
"You continue chatting; I’m going to have a good talk with the Wuling Person."
At this point, the rmaid took an even more proactive stance, quickly excusing herself to the spokespersons of the other six cities before leaping out of her chair with her tail and taking Ronald out of the eting room.
The two of them, one following the other, walked through the cabins, and it took so ti to find a clean corner where no one was present.
"Wuling Person, tell quickly!" she persisted.
Her enthusiasm remained constant, and her questions unchanged:
"I’m a die-hard fan of Lady Hailberth; I never thought I’d have the chance to et a living side character from her legendary adventures!"
"..."
Ronald mused for a mont; he indeed had questions that needed answers.
Considering the identity and abilities of the rmaid before him, befriending her was surely not a bad idea.
"As for Hailberth, it has to do with this."
With that thought, Ronald took out the flashlight that Hailberth had given him from his pocket. Seeing the rmaid’s excitent rise another notch, Ronald knew his negotiation had succeeded.
"Back on the island, a man-made deity sealed away was about to descend upon that world. Our nation’s princess happened to be there at the ti, so..."
Ronald detailed the events that had unfolded after Hailberth’s departure during the typhoon incident.
Miss rmaid, treasuring the flashlight in her hands, occasionally interjected with questions about Hailberth’s reactions back then.
Finally, when Ronald shifted from discussing the topic of the typhoon event and hinted at so subsequent events,
Miss rmaid undisguisedly showed less interest.
Naturally, Ronald also changed his tune:
"In essence, that’s the experience with Hailberth," he concluded.
"How about it, is there anything else you’d like to know?"
"Vilram, my na is Vilram." After the interesting topic had passed, Miss rmaid’s deanor beca very polite. She introduced herself to Ronald first, then reluctantly returned the flashlight.
"Wuling Person, this is sothing Lady Hailberth gave you; you must treasure it," she advised.
Ronald also earnestly accepted the flashlight:
"I certainly will."
Ronald didn’t rashly offer to give the flashlight to Vilram, considering that since their eting, he realized she was not the type to be pleased by flattery.
He handed over the flashlight to the other party as if it were a bribe.
Whether the flattering would work or not, at least it diminished how negatively the other party viewed him.
As it turned out, Ronald’s judgnt of Vilram was completely accurate.
The rmaid Miss nodded appreciatively at his reaction and then casually initiated the conversation herself,
"Wuling person, crab crab... thank you for sharing!"
"Since you’ve told such great news about Lord Hairbes, I can answer so questions for you in return."
As she spoke, Vilram smiled playfully and added,
"Just to declare upfront, don’t ask about those forbidden topics you shouldn’t inquire about~~"
"..."
Her attitude was quite similar to Hairbes’ at the beginning, but it was much more relaxed.
Ronald took a mont to understand her stance.
Then, without being greedy for anything else, he replied straightforwardly,
"My core purpose of coming here boils down to two questions."
"The first is how to return to the original world. I have already acquired a ’gifted’ unique soul for that. The second is regarding the handling of the Dreaming Mirror; I don’t want the things of the Naless Sea to end up in that world after I leave."
"Smart questions!" Vilram clapped her hands in agreent with Ronald’s thoughts, and then went straight into the issue, "First, let tell you how you can return."
"Judging from the situation just now, Wuling person, you seem to be planning to take soone back with you?"
"That’s correct," Ronald nodded in acknowledgnt.
In fact, it wasn’t just Torrex that he wanted to bring back to Entrod, he even considered taking Edward too.
Though the Entrod of the past had already fallen.
But the last royal family mber, Vilarnika, was currently at the Adler family ancestral ho.
Ronald couldn’t bear to see such a loyal man simply vanish into the Naless Sea.
Vilram nodded with satisfaction at Ronald’s attitude,
"Rember this, when you jump into the Naless Sea, there will be a sense of destiny connecting to you. At that mont, expressing your will shall open the gate back to the original world."
"At that ti, you must bring those you wish to take with you behind you."
"Only then can you ensure they pass through the Dreaming Mirror."
"I understand." Ronald had been reminded by Vilram before, so he didn’t delve into the mysteries at this point but turned to the second question, "And what about the Dreaming Mirror? How should it be dealt with?"
Vilram frowned slightly, as if she was being cautious about sothing.
"Um——"
"With our situation, it might be a bit troubleso."
However, the rmaid Miss’s eyes soon lit up,
"Ah, let’s do it this way then!"
"Isn’t there an Eversea Lantern at the bow? You don’t need to bring the object itself back, just carry its fla. Toss the fire of negative energy particles onto the Dreaming Mirror—since it’s not like the Unspeakable Itself is present, everything should essentially be all good!"
Ronald nodded and thanked her,
"I understand, I appreciate your answers."
"..."
Boom——
Just as the two were chatting with zest.
The direction of the city atop the Luduo ship suddenly tilted violently forward, and many things inside the cabin started falling and rolling around.
"..."
Neither Ronald nor the rmaid Miss would lose their balance under such circumstances, but when they exchanged a glance,
They could both tell what the other was thinking—trouble had begun!
