Long pain’s worse than short pain; he simply let go and came back. Looking at it now, besides the safety of his kidneys and his personal freedom being restricted, Elizabeth actually hadn’t done anything else too over the line...

Ah, though if she finds out Renie was here, then all bets are off.

"You came just to mock me?"

"Hmph, mock you? I could help you escape the Golden Palace right now, you wanna come with me?"

Facing Fisher’s words that sounded like blame on the surface but were actually a topic shift, Renie had seen right through him long ago. She smiled, glanced at Fisher, and tossed this topic that left him speechless back at him. And just like she’d said earlier, if he really wanted to leave, he would’ve already gone with Valentina back then; why wait until today for Renie to show up.

"I can’t leave yet. Not just because of the kid beside me—who’s probably a test subject from the previous Creation Society’s Life Minister—but also because there are tons of doubts around Elizabeth..."

"Yeah yeah, if you could listen to me now, back then when I told you not to wade into this muddy water you would’ve done as told. I clearly told you to stay away from everything related to the Doomsday Prophecy, but you just don’t get it..."

Renie rubbed her brow, catching Fisher in her peripheral vision with a hint of helplessness, but then she still said,

"Back to the main topic: I’ve got a bit of a lead on that mysterious Blessing on you. At the border of the Spirit Realm—what we call the Ultimate, which protects the entire Spirit Realm from outside invasion—that place is formed by the power of another strong Divine Authority. That Divine doesn’t come from Ramasitia’s side, but the aura is a bit similar to what’s on you."

"The Boundary, huh..."

Renie blinked, then tried reaching her hand toward Fisher’s body. With a strange ripple, his body—which had felt light as if nothing at all—suddenly felt heavy. Looking down, he saw the golden tentacle that had been coiled around him reveal itself at some point, glaring fiercely at Renie’s hand as it stretched toward it.

"Stare..."

"Whap!"

"It showed itself. So this is the core of that Blessing... tsk, ow, that hurts!"

Renie’s hand hadn’t even gone halfway when the tentacle that had been glaring suddenly bristled like fur standing on end, arched up sharply, and slapped Renie’s hand hard. She hissed in pain and withdrew, her expression turning dangerous.

"Well now, this little tentacle even stings people..."

"Whap..."

As Renie lifted her fist with a dangerous smile, the tentacle on Fisher reacted as if shocked by electricity, curling up tight. One part wrapped around Fisher’s neck, while the tip hid behind his head, and its form gradually turned invisible again.

Its pathetic look made even Renie speechless. The corner of her mouth stiffened a bit as she complained,

"Aren’t you supposed to be a Favoured of that Divine? Why are you this timid, you coward."

"Whap!"

Fisher couldn’t help but reach up to touch this gift from the Demi-human girl control, but right then, a current of inspiration suddenly shot through his brain, making his fingers freeze for a moment.

Coward...

Wait, didn’t Dianne use that word on him before too?

And back then his body had felt a fear that didn’t belong to him. Could that fear also have come from this tentacle attached to him?

Renie could make it feel fear because she’s an Avatar of a Spirit Realm Divine with real Authority. Then what about Dianne, who could also make it feel fear?

"Still, it looks like it can communicate. Have you tried getting it to change the Blessing state on your body? Maybe it could be more flexible?"

"Azan Ross?"

"..."

Fisher called out to the tentacle on him, but it completely ignored him, acting like it didn’t understand what he was saying.

Looks like this won’t work; he’d have to try another way to communicate with it.

"Renie, when you were in the Spirit Realm just now, did you see the Gap burning? We can see that Pollution in the Spirit Realm even from here—has that Pollution gotten worse again?"

At that moment, Emhardt hurriedly flew back onto Fisher’s shoulder. Under the effect of the Blessing, in Alicia’s eyes he seemed to have vanished in an instant, leaving only Renie and herself in the room.

"Ah, that you don’t have to worry about. The part of the Gap that’s burning just happens to be right next to Him. Even though He has never given up on entering reality, He still won’t come here until the Gap is completely burned through. Whether it’s for Him or for the upcoming Doomsday Prophecy, I and the other Divines already have some countermeasures in place, but..."

Same speech again.

Fisher didn’t argue, just listened quietly, watching her profile as he asked,

"But what?"

"This time I came back to reality first to confirm your safety, and second, because I really do need a bit of your help, Fisher."

"Alright, tell me."

"Didn’t I tell you before about the different parts of the Doomsday Prophecy? I can share a bit of our solution steps from me and the other Gods. For the third part of the Doomsday Prophecy, we’ve confirmed that it’s the scarlet Pollution still remaining in the Spirit Realm right now. We plan to wipe out all the trouble in one go in this third part, while for the first two prophecies, we’ll just try our best to limit how much damage they do."

As she spoke, Renie gave an example,
