It was night.

Louis lay in the bedroom of the Prince's Mansion.

After talking with Miss Qian during the day, he quickly returned home.

Louis already had a vague answer in his heart.

Accompanying the deep night was the weak passage to the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm, squirming like a cat worm.

Louis watched it crawl towards him, finally sighing as he took out the Reincarnation Dagger from his dimensional bag.

This time, he clearly felt the Reincarnation Dagger vibrating.

"Is the essence of summoning... forming a bond?"

With his murmurs, his figure was unsurprisingly swallowed by the passage.

Amid a whirlwind of dizziness.

When Louis came to his senses, he had already arrived in the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm.

Louis looked at the black, white, and gray world and whispered:

"In a little while, the Somnolence Festival will come."

On February 17, Louis completed his training and discussed with the Moonlight Cat Cat Group the strategy for the Central Avenue ghost mission on his return journey.

On February 18, they went to the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm to launch an attack against ghost-type shadowy demon creatures.

That same night, he was sucked into the weak passage in his sleep and met Miss Qian in the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm.

On the early morning of February 19, they successfully escaped from the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm.

It was also on that day he went to ask Miss Qian during the day about being "summoned."

Now, it's 10 PM on February 19, 14451.

Only two hours are left until the Somnolence Festival.

The time of the year when the spirits are most active is about to arrive.

Accompanying his fall into the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm, the Reincarnation Dagger in his hand began to shake unprecedentedly.

Louis didn't care about much else.

His eyes glanced around.

With a flash of lead-gray light, Miss Qian appeared in front of him.

She looked at Louis with a complicated expression:

"What do you want to do after all? I still have the task of protecting Her Highness Beatrice."

Louis looked up at her and said:

"Untie the knot in your heart, then take the final step as a son or daughter."

Qian opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately said nothing.

Suddenly, the Reincarnation Dagger in Louis's hand emitted an unprecedented light.

In that light, an ethereal figure slowly emerged.

Miss Qian's body wavered and she instinctively shouted:

"Father."

But she quickly showed a complex expression, saying nothing more.

The phantasmal spiritual body of Rogen slowly moved toward a certain place ahead.

Louis glanced at Qian and said:

"Let's go, and watch your father's last sunset with me."

Qian wore a difficult expression, but was ultimately dragged along by Louis.

Rogen's body emitted spiritual light that continuously expanded around, carrying a beautiful feeling that each step could give rise to lotus flowers.

Every step he took caused large phantom memory fragments to scatter.

Following behind him, the two seemed to be walking in a corridor of time.

He saw the War Ghost roaring.

That was before Rogen left the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm, when he had no concept of time.

The only thing to do was to fight! Fight! Fight!

Until his life came to an end.

Then one day, he saw a black sun.

In the twilight of his life, a hand reached out from the black sun:

"If you still feel lost, then follow behind me."

That voice was the Emperor.

Memory fragments endlessly flew.

Scenes of Rogen fighting alongside other Dark Crow Guards appeared before him.

Those fragments appeared and vanished quickly.

Rogen continued moving forward.

Following behind, Louis's eyes suddenly fixed on one spot:

"Miss Qian, look over there."

Qian instinctively raised her head.

What came into view was a ruin.

The War Ghost clad in steel armor blocked a collapsed building, saving the lives of a family beneath the ruins.

The heavy force knocked his helmet off, revealing his inhuman face.

"You'd be scared, wouldn't you."

Rogen's large body protected the family:

"If you're scared, just leave."

Miss Qian's steps halted; it was unclear if those words were about the fear of being buried by the ruins, or... himself.

However, something unexpected happened.

The little girl from the family hung a small white flower she was holding on the War Ghost's crimson ear.

Once the family had moved away, Rogen released his hold, being swallowed by the collapsing floorboards.

Before long, he tore apart the walls, standing up from the ruins.

As he was about to pick up his helmet that had been knocked away, he suddenly noticed the girl peeking nearby.

Upon seeing Rogen, she laughed and ran over.

A newly woven flower crown was placed on Rogen's head by her.

Crack, the memory fragment shattered.

Louis watched that scene and suddenly said:

"That was your parents' first encounter."

Qian watched it, feeling as if it belonged to a bygone era.

Another series of memory fragments burst forth.

Most were scenes of Rogen and the Dark Crow Guards fighting demons and devils together.

Then came another encounter between Rogen and his wife.

This time, the little girl who had placed a flower crown on Rogen years ago had grown into an adult.

In the largest memory fragment, Louis saw the girl holding a flower basket, glancing curiously at Rogen who was walking down the street again.

She smiled brightly, jogging to Rogen:

"Mr. Rogen, do you remember the little girl you saved in the Old Imperial Capital ten years ago?"

She tried hard to gesture with her hands.
