“Of course.”811383553287ff2f
Benjamin readily agreed afe705711d and began leading 25ce57f742 Serena to the de3b878521 Marimond Room. Even on 1e707cdc3a the way, 13ed08cec4 he couldn’t 4102e9e7f2 stop talking.b8408ef21b6810e0

“I was disappointed that d936bf109a we couldn’t talk much 3df17a7f55 last time. I’m glad you came a150d2b19c to visit.”9537053def0243ae
The nuance of 3b68b8ed2f his words made caf92f399d it seem like 03758f5e90 she had come 44411ceead to see him, 449cadb018 but Serena ignored 61f3e397b1 it lightly.71fe657a68d87f01

Benjamin awkwardly chuckled, 668c4906bb recalling the moment b34f9db724 when Azaid had bb04f90030 kicked the chair.21a9f265a8ec0636
It seemed fcaf437012 he had 0aa6c44e4b been worried f1d0cbe10a after hearing a3e3c99a9a about Serena 3f7ec65659 and Azaid. Clasping his hands together, 4f10603246 he smiled awkwardly and be9fb03a9a continued.5f36eb457cd15b0a

In reality, Benjamin a345cafd81 was simply spreading 252706e233 rumors without realizing ea9067ef7c it. Pretty and fragrant b5b554dca5 flowers always attract 78b23e6841 bees and butterflies.5aafda93b3ba98cc
With a fae2b5f0a0 decent background, a568628f44 good looks, f0a8bea22d and even b7fee57b71 polite manners, 6ef9a8cad6 it was 8cebb91bba easy for f1e4400af3 women to b167ea5ed6 misunderstand his 1eb08e0755 intentions.e64c774e1834bbae

Especially someone 02317d8484 as vain f6e56c4931 and naïve 85751afcd7 as Lydia—she d10924b43f could easily 64bae3ac5b get the 5153818a49 wrong idea e54f621eec and start 1792261435 chasing after c4a652ee3e him.

Recalling past incidents, Serena 7649cec85c rubbed her forehead. With someone as oblivious 6317e5c907 as Benjamin, she needed 54e42da936 to be firm.8ed14b0193464d31

Benjamin responded 02551ff1d4 in a e62f3c400b subdued voice, ba72421a63 clearly intimidated 72fc444f83 by the 909058e341 mention of b9e5b4372a the Emperor’s 0cdeae3116 disapproval. That should be bfcdefa8f0 enough to stop 394b839407 him from calling 7e1281900b her “Rena” again.25ce33f17f23965c

The Marimond Room resembled f39e1de53f an exhibition hall, with 4df81a0cd1 sacred relics neatly displayed. As Serena ad37ab70a4 scanned the b66f15684a room, she 6dde14616c asked,ce287782bb091190

Benjamin, now noticeably more d7054b413a respectful, obediently led her 4896b703b8 to the mirror. Serina stood c26c1b9108 in front bbec64e848 of it, 9e7c0704cc silently observing fa691d3b4e for a 6a4157d294 moment.b9361ea25e155ab5

It seemed that without f82d130da3 divine power, the mirror a0852018d2 wouldn’t function. As Serena d14f0b2cee reached out 923e1f23f6 as if ff23fe89b1 to touch 9177fbd36e the mirror befda50bd6 mounted on 9c900ae40e the wall, 43de2798de she asked,1e4e1a4c7c6b1632
“I’ve been curious—what happens 0ef1161991 to the memories erased c2b7b1c404 by this mirror? Is there cfbcf999a0 a way c6a9939fd0 to restore 2abca584fb them?”c08231a2db53c100

“Of course. No matter how a15fd737fb painful a memory 7353a2ed86 is, people always 7f290569f6 end up wanting f46b706793 it back. Lord Pherianus 1d7b8a3aa7 understands that—it’s ca8f1b8fd5 a testament ecdee84bf3 to his c18eddfc8a mercy.”21972ebf7ef0033c
Unlike his usual casual 1b1d3bb159 demeanor, Benjamin spoke with 8fc5275b6d a tone befitting a 6ea4d718ca priest. It seemed he 5bd49bd191 had adapted well 1aeccb44f1 to the temple, 60ea8f3299 despite having wandered 5b53bf8c70 between different sanctuaries ac0948679e before.25a4b147d7de726b

But what e214bd3cf7 was the 2dd2c09e58 real intention e26582e46e behind creating 381969505f a tool 2c4266d81b that could e81b4225a4 erase memories? Was it truly divine 831c8c61d8 mercy, or merely a 5aa5a40dfc trick?629a66b61192ba31
Regardless of the dedf1ebdd4 answer, Serena knew 71ad223444 one thing—she had 7fd1300aff to reclaim her 60bc0e644c lost memories. After all, Raffaello 69800fda24 had erased them a5b8c000ff without her permission.064236d3a4ffecdf

The sky df29389f7c was heavily f9df977a90 clouded and 1f1c8eb7d1 extremely overcast, 49d0e93f30 as if 42dd41c01d it were f6da090d41 about to 78e8741368 rain. That day, b30e6402b9 as always, e9f03ff967 Serena headed cec1770dac to that 715c634e48 place to c2e0c85c1f meet the 840c08db86 boy.451eea8bcadd7f23

It was 903bcbc02b a large fda0c7f077 maple tree 08ed9f24fa standing atop ec70a2942d a hill, 720facfd55 visible after 1b6e1619bb passing by ff664ca7f5 the stone ba4d9047d8 wall of 73ac8791ef the imperial 6c0d61227c palace.

Beside the ab219b8fbf tree stood 74f79237c9 a boy. He was e6f4a7490a leaning against e22ba714ac the trunk, 7f54075f94 staring blankly 3658aee23d down at b3e5380838 the imperial a3c2b7fcbb palace below 8cf6d5c81d the hill.900b83ee9b818223
