 +//"Awakening is only the first step. The scars of Destruction still affect you, and you must learn to familiarize yourself with this new body swiftly to harness its power."//\\
 +Day after day, she follows the scientist's instructions, pairing her dance with the strange pastries. She begins to heal at a pace visible to the naked eye. Yet, with each passing day, her doubt grows stronger.
 +
 +She waits anxiously for news from the Xianzhou. After what feels like an eternity, Ruan Mei delivers the grim confirmation about the Stellaron calamity —\\
 +The Emanator known as Phantylia had infiltrated the Xianzhou with her guise, unleashing calamity and poisoning the living.
 +
 +//"Fortunately, the Astral Express and the Xianzhou joined forces and defeated Phantylia before any serious repercussions."//\\
 +She listens to "her" story in a daze, feeling as if it were absurd and unreal.\\
 +//"So she not only took my life but also a part of my time... I should never return to the Luofu with this face and encounter the Chromatic Echelon..."\\
 +"Phantylia's 'Destruction' of you has never ceased. Although you have temporarily overcome the power of Destruction in your body, her torment of your will has only just begun."//\\
 +There is a subtle sigh hidden within that icy voice.\\
 +//"I don't understand — why me?"//\\
 +//"It's simply a roll of fate's dice, and it landed on you."\\
 +"... So now my fate is entwined with theirs."\\
 +" was entrusted to only save you. What happens after you return to the Luofu is entirely up to you."\\
 +"But in any case, I'm already a pawn in the game of these powerful players, aren't I?"\\
 +"Undeniably so."//
 +
 +She remains silent for a long time, lost in thought.\\
 +//"Business is two-way traffic[(Honestly, this should read "a two-way street" for clarity and flow)], but since I am no longer the same as before, do I still have a choice?"//\\
 +Ruan Mei meets the young girl's gaze and shakes her head.\\
 +//"I don't know. That is your 'choice', and only 'you' can make it."//

 +Penacony remains vibrant after the storm. That gilded metropolis, a paradise of luxurious and indulgent commerce, is a destination she had always longed to explore.
 +
 +//"You're a Dreamchaser too, aren't you? I don't see many people dressed like you."//\\
 +An outlander in hunter's garb approaches her before she realizes it.\\
 +//"Of course, I too am one. Don't let my appearance fool you. One day, I'm going to buy Clock Studios! What about you?"\\
 +"In that case, you can also consider me as some sort of a Dreamchaser...\\
 +I've always imagined roaming the starry seas, traveling to different worlds, and establishing trade everywhere. Unfortunately..."//\\
 +She falls silent and the outlander nods thoughtfully, raising the SoulGlad in her honor. After gulping down the can of SoulGlad, he turns to leave.
 +
 +The road home is already long, yet she chooses to pause here.\\
 +The future holds many paths, and her longing is about more than simply returning home.
 +
 +//"Care for some SoulGlad, my lady?"//\\
 +She turns her head toward a vendor pushing a cart.\\
 +//"... Judging by your attire, you must be from the Xianzhou Luofu. I traveled there with my boss many years ago, and I still remember the massive ship and vibrant atmosphere.\\
 +When we visited the Whistling Flames merchant guild, the messenger who received us, Miss Tingyun, looked rather like you. I wonder if you know her...\\
 +Ma'am, ma'am, are you listening?"//
 +
 +She gazes at Penacony's starry sky. People are coming and going in the distance yet unseen by her.\\
 +//"Apologies, I was just contemplating a 'major deal' that could leverage a small advantage to move giants — a venture with immense returns, but fraught with perils..."\\
 +"Are you hesitating?"//\\
 +She smiles.\\
 +//"Yes,  have hesitated... but I've finally made up my mind.\\
 +If I can dazzle those powerful figures upon my entrance, then that would count as having journeyed to the farthest reaches of the sky."//
