Again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"As expected of the Foundation, even in a base that looks like it's about to be abandoned, they can casually pull out three contained objects!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"This name is interesting, Immortality. It reminds me of the ancient Aeon who holds the Path of 'The Abundance,' the Long. I wonder if there is any connection between them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"'Immortality'? Just looking at the name, it seems like the wearer of the amulet can receive the blessing of 'Immortality.' If that's really the case, even if it means offending the Foundation to death, there will be people willing to take the risk to snatch this amulet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Am I the only one concerned about who this person wearing the amulet is? He's basically not wearing any cold-weather gear, and he's walking toward Sampo, who is holding a sharp blade, all by himself. Is he not afraid at all?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Demon sister buy meow meow... but this is a contained object. Even for the 'Heart-Sewing Bear,' it leaves quite obvious external problems when healing injuries.
