Chapter 260

Amber: "In other words, Mr. Topaz's real target was actually Young Lady Huang Quan?"

Amber: "That really is a deep and calculating scheme...."

Collei: "But.... what if Young Lady Huang Quan still doesn't make a move?"

Himeko: "No, she will make a move."

Himeko: "Because she already made a promise before."

Himeko: "So she definitely won't go back on her word!"

Welt: "Mm, she is a person who keeps her promises — that much is beyond doubt."

Nilou: "So Mr. Topaz is definitely taking that blade?"

Nilou: "Can he really tank it?"

Dr. Ratio: "Theoretically, no."

Dr. Ratio: "But if Young Lady Huang Quan is willing to hold back, it's not like he can't survive."

Stelle: "Then there's no need to say more."

Stelle: "He should be alive."

March 7th: "Hey, I think so too."

The video continues.

Huang Quan watched Topaz's actions,

her brows slightly furrowed,

and sank into recollection.

【You.... are you setting off?】

An aged, weathered voice rang out.

【Mm.】

【Perhaps.... I will pass through the place you spoke of.】

Huang Quan nodded.

【Penacony....】

【What do you seek within the dream?】

The aged voice inquired.

【I need not seek anything.】

【They are not within the dream.】

Huang Quan, holding up a paper parasol,

shook her head.

【.....】

【I fear the Family will not open its doors for you.】

The aged voice let out a sigh.

【Why?】

Huang Quan was puzzled.

【Because the path you walk.... is not tolerated by Harmony.】

That voice answered.

【Even if.... this is not my wish?】

Huang Quan countered.

【Even if it is not your wish.】

【Because He is unlike the other Aeons.】

【He never glances upon anyone, nor does He need to glance upon anyone.】

【He leaves the threads of a Path, letting people walk and together weave a single great shadow....】

【And that shadow silently shrouds them as well.】

The aged voice seemed to grow ethereal.

【There are always those who return from the shadow.】

Huang Quan interjected.

【Most of them became part of that shadow.】

That voice clearly did not accept Huang Quan's words.

【In your eyes, am I the same?】

Huang Quan asked.

【You still retain a sliver of color....】

【.... but not much.】

The voice answered.

【.....】

【.... That is enough.】

【Before they fade away completely...】

【I will reach the end of Nothingness.】

Welt: "The end of Nothingness...."

Welt: "As expected, Young Lady Huang Quan's identity is astonishing...."

Stelle: "What do you mean?"

Stelle: "She's an Emanator of Nihility?!"

March 7th: "Nihility?!"

March 7th: "The power of this Aeon of Nihility — if I recall correctly, it's terrifying, isn't it?"

General Jing Yuan: "All things in the world, in the end, shall return to Nihility."

General Jing Yuan: "How could an Aeon of Nihility possibly be summed up by the word 'terrifying'?"

General Jing Yuan: "But for Young Lady Huang Quan to have actually obtained Emanator-level Nihility power — that is what truly astonishes!"

Furina: "Why be astonished?"

Furina: "Is there something else special about it?"

Herta: "To borrow a line from the video — Nihility never glances at anyone, nor does it need to glance at anyone."

Herta: "In other words, It itself would never select an Emanator."

Hu Tao: "Then how did Young Lady Huang Quan's status as an Emanator come about?"

Dr. Ratio: "No other reason — simply because she has walked the Path of Nihility too far, so far that she has already gained power equivalent to that of an Emanator!"

Dr. Ratio: "The result is that she is not an Emanator, yet possesses the substance of one!"

Dr. Ratio: "This too is what is so shocking!"

Dr. Ratio: "To have advanced so far along the Path of Nihility, and yet still exist in the world....."

Dr. Ratio: "Honestly, even if I tried, I couldn't wrap my head around such a thing."
