Chapter 1764 - 152: Home
The Cardinal of Destiny, upon hearing Alagina’s words, took a moment to scrutinize her expression, seemingly doubting whether you two are planning to use the Sanctuary for a world of two, especially at such a crucial time.
However, Alagina’s expression was quite earnest, at least the Cardinal of Destiny couldn’t discern what she was thinking.
It’s not that Alagina’s expression was flawless, but rather that the Cardinal of Destiny was lacking in ability in this area.
In the past, Asuka once mentioned she "lacked the ability to read the air and people’s expressions," which was related to the inner deficiency that this Transferee needed to have "Completion."
"Or Alagina, you take me to the Spirit Realm first, then return to bring Senior Ashley? This time entering the Spirit Realm is to attempt communication with a Divine, and having Senior Ashley would be more secure."
Alagina glanced at Fisher before speaking, while David, beside her, explained first,
"Beep beep... the operational principle of Transference Cardinal is not merely transporting living creatures to the Spirit Realm; it also provides protection for those below Eighteenth Rank. Otherwise, with your Ranks, survival for even a second in the Spirit Realm would be impossible, and this protection can only include two people. So, when Alagina returns to reality, the creature she brought would be forced back to reality due to the protection’s return."
After David finished, Alagina suddenly added,
"...It’s not just because I want to go with Fisher."
"..."
Both Fisher and the Cardinal of Destiny looked at her simultaneously, but Alagina blinked in confusion, not understanding why they suddenly fell silent and were staring at her directly.
Fisher, knowing Alagina better, broke the silence first with a smile and took the initiative to say to the Cardinal of Destiny,
"Then Senior Ashley, please wait here for a moment. I will inform you of the situation after I come out."
The Cardinal of Destiny sighed and had to say,
"... It’s fine, I’ve heard of the dangers of the Spirit Realm. However, if you can communicate with Dalasgon, do not forget to ask the necessary questions. Do not forget."
Alagina looked over in confusion, but Fisher answered calmly, "...I promise."
With everything settled, Emhardt flamboyantly flew onto Fisher’s shoulder, using an aggravating tone to address the Cardinal of Destiny,
"Aha, old lady, we’ll be off now. I’ll tell you the news once we return... My goodness, if we receive too much information, who knows how long it will take to inform you, but don’t worry, I’ll remind Fisher of things to be done."
"Beep beep... Pardon David for reminding, this... Book mister..."
"Ah?"
"Beep beep... Book mister, you might also need to stay here."
"What? I’m not a human! I’m a Holy Object, look clearly, little iron ball! God, Alagina, you’re absolutely coaching this little iron ball to cover for you, wanting to enjoy a world of two with Fisher without me!"
"Beep beep... Although Alagina indeed has a strong desire to be alone with Fisher behind Miss Valentina’s back, Book mister, your inability to enter is unrelated..."
David’s words were suddenly silenced by Alagina silently restraining him from behind.
Emhardt, ready to say more, was interrupted by the Cardinal of Destiny’s sneer and urgency,
"Your mom, do not laugh!"
Fisher ignored Emhardt’s frenzy, instead using his peripheral vision to glance at Alagina beside him, observing her calm demeanor; yet within the silver-haired temples, her slightly rounded earlobes had turned rosy, resembling the yet-unripened but particularly enticing cherries.
"Beep beep... Allow David to explain the primary cause to Book mister, based on the Gabriel Angel’s records in the remaining database. Entering the Spirit Realm impacts the consciousness of Tear-Drop Holy Artifact for unknown reasons, hence the responsible personnel in the Spirit Realm Sanctuary were originally..."
"Let’s depart."
But listening to David, Fisher suddenly interrupted.
"What! You were about to talk about the Gabriel Angel’s news, and you interrupted the robot!"
Emhardt flew over in a huff, while Fisher gently caught him in his hand, paused, then, without expression, pushed him away, as if casually dismissing,
"... We’ll handle the Spirit Realm matters first, other things can wait until we return."
"Your mom!"
At those words, Emhardt huffily flew out of the laboratory, and the Cardinal of Destiny, enjoying watching Emhardt’s plight, smiled faintly before turning to leave the lab as well, leaving behind,
"I’ll wait here for your return."
Alagina glanced at Fisher in confusion, then turned to gather some tools, instructing David to start preparing for entering the Spirit Realm.
"Beep beep... Sanctuary transfer process preparing, countdown begins 30 seconds before transfer. Please, the two of you stay close together and don’t move, we’ll be there shortly!"
Alagina nodded, moving closer to Fisher, and while secretly glancing at him, couldn’t help but wonder,

"Fisher, did you... have a falling out with Emhardt?"
"No, what’s going on?"
