Chapter 1617

~7 min read 1,277 words

Robin sighed slightly, a new weight pressing upon her heart.

Even the monarch of Screwllum had come to attend the Penacony gala.

If she were unable to sing with her own throat by then, it would truly be a slight against Screwllum, a member of the Genius Society.

"Although I haven't been a Watchmaker for very long."

"I know that the monarch of the mechanical lifeforms has never entered a dream in Penacony before."

"It seems this Luo Feng carries a lot of weight, to be able to make Screwllum make a special trip."

Gallagher stroked his stubble and said.

Robin's words made Gallagher even more surprised, and he felt a growing interest in this Luo Feng whom Robin spoke of.

He even began to suspect whether the invitations he had sent out had fallen into the hands of Luo Feng and Screwllum, thereby drawing their attention.

I should find an opportunity to meet this Luo Feng.

Gallagher thought to himself.

Just then, a crisp voice suddenly came from the sky.

"Whoa, I really fell right out of the air."

"I can't even fly anymore."

"So, does this mean I've been hit by something!"

Hearing the sound, Robin and Gallagher both looked up in unison, only to see a figure in green robes plummeting rapidly from the sky toward the lobby.

"It seems like another person whose form doesn't quite match the Penacony dreamscape."

"But he looks quite relaxed, maybe even a little bit like he's enjoying it?"

"Could it be that he knows nothing will happen even if he falls from the sky?"

Gallagher said with interest.

"Mr. Gallagher, I think I need to leave."

Robin said to Gallagher, then walked quickly to the elevator beside him and pressed the button.

"Hm? Could that be Luo Feng?"

Seeing Robin's reaction, Gallagher asked hurriedly.

"No, he is not Luo Feng."

"But he is a friend of Luo Feng, a person named Venti."

Robin said.

"A friend, huh…"

Gallagher withdrew his gaze from the closed elevator doors and looked down at the lobby below.

"So, as long as I keep an eye on that person named Venti, I'll be able to see Luo Feng."

………………

The Reverie Hotel, lobby.

"I don't think I heard you wrong, you can use the ability of a Memokeeper to adjust the states of Venti and Raiden Ei."

"And you intend to use this as a condition to trade for some precious memories from Luo Feng?"

Paimon looked at Black Swan and asked curiously.

"That's right, is there a problem with that, little lady?"

Black Swan asked with a smile.

"Well, how should I put it, the problem isn't exactly huge, but it's not small either."

Paimon said, looking at the Traveler.

The Traveler nodded in agreement.

"Did I say something wrong?"

Black Swan looked at the Traveler and Paimon, then at the other passengers present like Navia and the Knave, and only then did she notice the strange expressions they were giving her.

It wasn't just them; even Venti and Raiden Ei, whose states hadn't been adjusted yet, were looking at her with strange expressions.

【Hu Tao: Generally speaking, this person called Black Swan didn't say anything wrong, but she didn't consider that Lord Luo Feng himself is capable of using Memokeeper abilities.】

【Beidou: Exactly, Lord Luo Feng has absolutely no need to have Black Swan help solve the problems Venti and Raiden Ei are facing right now.】

【The Knave: Or rather, Lord Luo Feng doesn't even have an obligation to help Venti and Raiden Ei; for Black Swan to want to use this as a trade is simply too greedy.】

【Tartaglia: She probably thinks that since Venti and Raiden Ei are traveling with Lord Luo Feng, he would want to help solve their problems.】

【Skirk: In fact, that man Luo Feng has no need to do such a thing at all.】

【Ningguang: At the end of the day, using the adjustment of Venti and Raiden Ei's states as a condition to trade for Lord Luo Feng's memories is not a fair trade to begin with.】

【Morax: In terms of universal rationality, that is indeed the case. The preciousness of Mr. Luo Feng's memories is not something that can be traded for with the conditions proposed by Black Swan.】

【Mavuika: His memories, after all, involve the Aeons. This Ms. Black Swan has likely greatly underestimated the brilliance of Mr. Luo Feng's memories.】

"You may not be wrong about anything, but I think Mr. Luo Feng probably doesn't need your help."

The Knave rested her hands on the table and said to Black Swan.

"Is that so?"

Black Swan looked suspiciously at Luo Feng, who had risen and was walking toward Venti and Raiden Ei.

He reached out with both hands to grab the arms of Raiden Ei and Venti respectively; immediately, Venti, who had been struggling to stand, and Raiden Ei, who had been half-submerged in the ground, were restored to their normal states.

"Thanks, Mr. Luo Feng."

Venti laughed. "... Thank you."

Raiden Ei said.

"How about that? Now you know why our expressions were so strange earlier."

Paimon stood with her hands on her hips, speaking proudly to Black Swan.

"Even so, this has nothing to do with you, Paimon."

Lumine shook her head, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"That power just now... Luo Feng, you used the power of a Memokeeper, didn't you!"

"Could it be that you are also a Memokeeper?"

"No, you are not the same as a Memokeeper."

Black Swan looked at Luo Feng with both shock and suspicion.

In that instant earlier, she could clearly see Luo Feng using the power of memory to adjust the states of Venti and Raiden Ei, allowing them to better fit into this dreamscape of Penacony.

Furthermore, the power of memory Luo Feng used even gave Black Swan a sense of familiarity.

It was as if it were the same power she herself used.

However, these were not the most peculiar things to Black Swan.

What Black Swan found most strange was that there was no aura unique to a Memokeeper on Luo Feng.

The Memokeepers of the Garden of Recollection have abandoned their physical bodies and possess meme-like bodies.

Even within the dreamscape of Penacony, even the people who come into this dreamscape have transformed into bodies similar to memes.

But there is still a huge gap compared to the meme-bodies possessed by Memokeepers.

And Luo Feng, at this moment, was in the state of an ordinary guest entering Penacony.

It was just that the aura on him was slightly more special.

"I just learned a few methods of using Memokeeper abilities from a friend."

"I can't really be considered a true Memokeeper."

Luo Feng waved his hand and said casually to Black Swan.

"As for the matter of trading memories you mentioned earlier."

"I think it's better to just forget it."

"If you came for a Light Cone, I can still sell you your signature Light Cone."

"Of course, you need to have enough Credits prepared in advance."

"Or, you could bring out something that interests me?"

Luo Feng raised his hand and flicked out Black Swan's Light Cone, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"This Light Cone... is really quite good."

Black Swan looked at the signature Light Cone 【Reforging the Past】 in Luo Feng's hand; even as a Memokeeper, she couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat.

No wonder Aventurine would spend 40 billion to buy his own signature Light Cone.

After seeing 【Reforging the Past】 with her own eyes, Black Swan could roughly guess how much of a boost it could bring her.
