Is waited for a long time, but his call was not answered.

After three attempts, he looked back at Tafa, who looked back at him innocently.

Is suddenly felt that questioning was meaningless. There can be many explanations for this result, such as Nana heard it but could not respond, or did not want to respond.

Of course, it may also be Tafa lied to him.

But he couldn't see it.

He could not be hostile to the guy in front of him, nor even suspicion.

He could have believed his intuition, but more and more questions piled up, making him no longer believe his keen "feelings" for the first time.

He pressed the anxiety and anxiety in his heart and summoned the eternal fire.

The little fire dragon surrounded him and reluctantly coaxed the child.

Tafa is not difficult to coax. He is not even as keen on playing difficult games as Nana. As long as the little fire dragon surrounds him, he will be so happy that he will be giggling.

He looks like a naive, scheming child, and it makes people almost unable to bear to have any doubts.

——But he may have invaded his consciousness, and he was unaware of anything.

Even without the slightest malice, "he can do it" alone is enough to shock Is. And he almost felt that it was irrelevant, which made him even more shocked.

It was clearly something he could not accept anyway—even Ed looked at the marks in his soul, which made him extremely repulsive.

The more he thought, the more he felt the chill like a needle, climbing up from his back little by little.

He had to think about the whole thing from the beginning, starting with Weiter's stumbled upon the city - was that really just a "coincident"?

He even prefers to doubt that it was Armis's particularly thoughtful arrangement, nor does he want to doubt that it was because of "God's will".

However, when I think about it carefully, whether it was his collision into the ancient ruins of Saspens, encountering the battle between the Kana man and the robot, or the successive appearance of Armister and Randy No. 27, the news he gave was naturally full of weirdness.

The real world is not a story written on paper, and there can't be so many "coincidences".

And, those seemingly credible news - they may be true, at least Amister and the robot think so, but all the news gave him a hint that even if there was any conspiracy, it was the trick of the Kana people, and their gods either did not exist at all, or were just an unlucky guy who had been used for countless years.

Can an existence called "God" really be so weak and stupid?

But he seemed to be paralyzed, satisfied with the news delivered to his door, arrogantly felt that no one dared to deceive him, and no one could deceive him. Even if he had some instinctive suspicion of Amister, he did not think seriously at all, did not try to investigate anything by himself, and was not wary of a possible real God. He even had sympathy and inexplicable closeness, and was only entangled in his consciousness that he could not let go, as if he felt that as long as this problem was solved, everything would be solved.

He never doubted that this would have something to do with the useless god.

Also, he had already relied so much on his consciousness, and he did not realize the danger until now. This powerful ability is indeed convenient and useful, but it cannot solve all problems.

An indescribable panic slowly swells in my heart.

Panic... and shame, and deep self-blame.

He also brought Nana...how could he be so careless?

But at this moment, it would be useless to be immersed in regret... He had to break the deadlock in front of him.

He recalled the eternal fire. The little fire dragon flying straight over with relief, refracting layers of light in the water waves, changing constantly as it flies.

This place is clearly an illusion, but it looks so real.

Or is this reality just arise from his manipulated perception?

So, is the "I lost all my strength" he felt... true or false?

"Don't you play anymore?" Tafa shook his tail in disappointment.

But even when playing, he had no intention of leaving the stone slab.

"...I'm leaving here," said Is.

Tafa blinked—unlike Kana, he had eyelids.

"But I don't know how to leave," he said.

"I'll find my own way," said Is. "You won't stop me, are you?"

However, he did not go further, but instead approached Tafa.

Every step he took, he felt his will was shaking. Maybe he should stay here, maybe he should be more patient and figure out the strangeness of this place, maybe he should know more about Tafa. He is so stupid, maybe he can deceive him...

Who is coaxing whom?

That little bit of suspicion has taken root in his mind. Maybe there is no problem with Tafa, maybe he is really a god who has lost his wisdom... but no matter what, he is going to leave here.

“This is the world you created,” he said. “You should know that the easiest way to destroy it is to solve you.”

Tafa opened his eyes wide and looked at him, as if he couldn't understand what he was saying.

The eternal fire suddenly surged on Is' shoulders, hiding Is' expressionless face in the fire.

It did not lose its power.

The same fire illuminated his soul realm, and the blazing light reached the darkest corner of his soul sea.

A small fish suddenly dissipated in the sea.

...He did not lose his power either.

The moment he was sure of this, something seemed to shatter silently.

"...You want to eat me too?"

Tafa looked up at his golden eyes and asked in a low voice.

"No." Is replied, "I just hope you don't get in my way."

It seemed that after he finally realized something was wrong, his blinded perception was gradually recovering... He could feel the strangeness of the stone slab.

The world is actually shaking constantly, as if the sea water is swept by a hurricane. The only difference between the stillness is the stone slab.

That may not be a channel, but it must be unusual.

Tafa remained silent, and then pouted childishly.

"So," he said, "I'll have to eat you."

.

"First, we need to clarify a fact." Amister, with his hands behind his back, was whispering. "I don't understand your magic, nor do I understand any magic trick, but any power has its core. Finding it and destroying it is the fastest and most direct way to solve the dilemma."

The robot nodded. Although this Britannian could not believe at first glance, this sentence was correct.

"Can you find it?" he asked.

"Then you have to look for it. I don't think it's too far away, and it's even likely to be in this bone," Amister didn't say too much, "I have my method, and Nana... should also have her own method to feel the existence of power?"

When he talked to Nana, his tone was always softer.

"Yes...yes?" Nana wasn't sure, "It's like...to find out which one of the best among a bunch of gems?"

When he got the robot's retelling, Amister was silent for a moment and nodded: "That's it."

Then he turned to the robot again.

"As for you," he said, "you should know the underground prison in Saspins?"

The robot nodded again.

"There is a passage here to go directly there. I can tell you the location of the passage, and you, perhaps using your identity, approach a member of the MP who was detained in the prison... Her name is Jiraya."

The robot is silent.

He knew that Gillaya, a highly respected and trusted MP, was also the youngest of the seven-member parliament. She was said to have died of accidental injury and was waiting for the resurrection ceremony... But of course, he didn't think Armister would lie to him at such a time.

"She should be able to tell you some... different stories." Amister looked around the bones, "some stories behind this bone, and the various rituals they have passed down for thousands of years."

As for the passage Armist mentioned, he actually knew, but...

"If I leave, how will you communicate with Nana?" he asked.

"Maybe you can tell me how to communicate with her?" said Amister. "If you can do it, I should be able to do it."

He didn't know the true identity of a robot, but judging from his behavior and language, he relied on technology rather than magic.

"…If I were to find the energy core, I should have my method, too." said the robot.

There may be nothing wrong with the split operation, but he feels that he shouldn't leave Nana.

She was still a child, and it would be wrong to let her stay with a stranger in any analysis.

"As for the prison," he said, "I have other ways to contact the MP."

This will expose a companion, but it is not difficult for them to return here again when they change their identities.
