Don't confiscate my identity as a human race

"But I feel like if one day Lan Fu suddenly listens to everything you say, you should start to feel scared."

She added.

"Lan Fu, her influence doesn't affect me, at most she just kicks me a couple of times."

Lanci laughed as he walked with Sigrid, and the two sat down together on the bench, leisurely leaning back and gazing at the sunset.

"Watching the sky is nice too."

The lake mirrored the golden sunset, merging with the sky.

As twilight deepened, the light grew dimmer, with only a trace of afterglow lingering on the horizon.

A cluster of faint lights emerged from the depths of the lake's center.

At first, they were just tiny dots, but gradually they increased, like the first stars and flickering fireflies.

Countless silver spots gathered, flowed, and spun at the lake's bottom, finally weaving into a vast net that spread out in the depths.

"Looks like it won't be long before the Mind Power Doll is found."

Sigrid was certain that the silver light was the Mind Power Doll working underwater.

"Anyway, there's no rush. Legend has it that the Forget Dust Star only emits a phantasmagoria after night falls completely and under the gaze of starlight."

Lanci relaxed completely, feeling none of the pressures of work.

"Don't you find it boring to waste time here with me?"

Sigrid turned her head and asked.

Originally, this afternoon should have been their date, but now it turned into spending time with her here, watching the sky.

Earlier, during their date at Herram, they had almost spent the entire day playing around everywhere in Herram, rarely waiting idly like this for time to pass.

"If this is called wasting time, then wasting a whole lifetime seems pretty nice."

Lanci only felt the leisure after finishing work, his voice carrying a hint of laziness not usually there.

"Oh my, Saint Heir, why did you suddenly say such things."

Sigrid covered her face and chuckled softly, leaning slightly to bump him with her shoulder.

"It seems like we were always chatting non-stop on the train in the Protoss Empire, even though we weren't very familiar then, unexpectedly having such engaging conversations."

Lanci reminisced.

"Cat Boss even said we were chatterboxes."

Sigrid nodded in agreement.

"Meow meow, are you talking about me?"

A familiar childish voice sounded from the distance behind them, prompting the two to turn their heads over the back of the bench.

They saw a little black cat floating leisurely towards them.

Earlier, when they left Violet's ward, they also used Communication Magic to contact Cat Boss, calling it back to the monastery's lake.

"Why did you call me back, meow?"

Cat Boss hovered around the stone bench, asking them.

It had been playing happily with Antanas outside the Saint Kray Monastery, suddenly being called back by Sigrid's communication.

Only to find the two sitting on the bench by the lake, chatting idly, seeming to have mentioned it.

"To show you something fun."

Sigrid grabbed Cat Boss and spoke to the little black cat.

During their adventure on the Northern Continent with Cat Boss, since they were revisiting, Cat Boss had to be there too.

"Meow? How fun?"

Cat Boss wondered what fun things it had missed in the monastery.

Despite remembering the Lan Cat adventures in the Northern Continent, it felt that Lanci and Sigrid always did dangerous things together, and its most precarious time was following these two around the Protoss Empire.

But now, the Saint Kray Monastery was very safe, so it wasn't afraid they'd trick it into some thrilling activities.

"Very very fun."

"So where are we going now, meow?"

"Just wait here."

"Wait here, meow?"

"That's right."

The last warm red glow disappeared into the sky, and night enveloped the entire Saint Kray Monastery.

The bright full moon quietly ascended into the night sky, alongside countless stars, casting a cool silver sheen across the land.

The smooth, mirror-like lake reflected the moonlight in the night sky, with the shimmering waves echoing the starry river above.

The silver light grew increasingly bright, illuminating the whole lake like daytime.

The light shot straight up from the lakebed, forming a dazzling pillar of light in mid-air.

"Looks like it's successfully found."

Lanci and Sigrid's faces were lit brightly, their eyes filled with joyful sparkles.

At the center of the light beam, a figure swam upwards at a rapid speed, leaving a trail of boiling silver-white foam in its wake.

"It's the Silver Glow Doll, meow."

Cat Boss suddenly looked towards the summon emerging from the water.

This Mind Power Doll had given it and Lanci considerable reassurance during the most perilous times, remembering the doll vividly.

The shimmering glow enveloping Silver Glow Doll gradually dimmed, finally turning into specks of stardust and dissipating into the evening breeze.

It was left holding tightly to a deep blue mineral, like a meteorite, covered with grooves, sharp edges, but emitting a faint blue glow from its crevices.

"Doesn't it seem a bit similar to the Void Gate of the Shadow World?"

Sigrid observed the mineral closely, asking Lanci and Cat Boss.

"Perhaps its principles share slight similarities with both the Shadow World and the Artificial Shadow World, as they are also phantasmagorias from the past."

Lanci speculated.

The doll presented the meteorite before the two.

Cat Boss gently extended a paw to touch the mineral, feeling a chill spreading from its paw, making it shudder all over.

"Did you wait here to find this stone, meow? Can it be played with?"
