The great ups and downs of life sometimes come just that suddenly.
Without the Dragon Soul, the Holy Crystal is just like a phone without an installed system, no different from a brick, right? Of course, there's still a difference — compared to the intricate internal design, even a horse at full gallop can't catch up with a brick.
But no matter how intricately designed a brick is, it's still just a brick in essence.
At the moment, Fang Hong felt like a traveler in the desert who suddenly comes upon a mirage, going from wild joy to gradually becoming lost and perplexed. He didn't know how to describe his feelings — bitter, lost, desperate, angry, or self-mocking? It was like he had knocked over a bottle containing a mix of all flavors, a complex medley of emotions.
If possible, there was a certain expletive beginning with M that he wasn't sure whether or not he should say.
The joke had gone a bit too far.
But when Fang Hong stopped in his tracks, seeing no way out, a line of text suddenly appeared from left to right in his vision:
'Dragon Knight System detects carrier—'
He was stunned for a moment before he remembered this thing.
He had seen this line of text when he got the Hailin Crown, but the situation was so sudden back then that he hadn't remembered it afterward. He also recalled that he should have seen it once before, the first time Miya's dagger glowed, but it was so fleeting then that he thought it was an illusion.
"Could it be...?" Fang Hong suddenly thought of an unbelievable possibility.
A percentage progress bar unfolded before his eyes.
It slowly moved forward, from one percent to ten percent, then to halfway. As it reached the end, Fang Hong subconsciously held his breath. After a brief flicker, the progress bar folded away and disappeared.
A pale blue line appeared in the space, moving from left to right.
Then from top to bottom, slowly unfolding, a sea-blue page appeared before his eyes. Like the waves of the ocean, the deep blue glow reflected in the depths of his pupils, radiant and dazzling.
Above the iris, fleeting lights danced, refracting dense, tiny text.
Fang Hong opened his mouth slightly.

Suddenly, Fang Hong bowed his head a little and rubbed the corners of his eyes with both hands.
He was afraid he might suddenly burst into tears.
This was what he had longed for. It was what he had said he didn't care about out loud, but in his heart, it was what he wanted more than anything else — it was a gateway. Behind it were mountains howling with cold winds, dark forests hanging low, fields echoing with light songs, and bright and vibrant harbors.
It was a name that lingered in his dreams.
It was after he had spent more than half a year in this world.
It was after he had experienced wandering and studying, a long adventure, after the Morning Dawn Star's comings and goings, and after being cared for like a family member by someone who silently left him. After experiencing the human heart and reality of Eteliria...
He had finally opened this gateway —
Behind it was a shining sea, gentle winds, shallow grass swaying, and forests whispering softly.
It was a world.
It was the dream he had grasped for himself.
It was also responsibility and promise.
Fang Hong took a deep breath and pulled a smile uglier than crying. He had always been optimistic, and no difficulty could ever make him bow his head, but the sudden arrival of happiness had struck him, leaving him at a loss.
What a coincidence, isn't it?
In the end, the Dragon Soul he had was given to him by Miya's very own hands —
Fang Hong lifted his head.
The emblem of the Dragon Soul on the crystal was no longer transparent but tinted with a bright cyan hue. It rose slowly, flew towards him, and landed in his hand.
A gentle, somewhat serene voice rang in his mind: "Guardian of the Silver Tower, Tata-Big Thumb-Morning Star at your service, Mr. Knight."
The blue light flickered, and a small, beautiful figure emerged from transparency, gradually revealing her form before his eyes.
Pointed ears, crystal-clear earlobes adorned with transparent ornaments, hair like a waterfall cascading down in waves, flowing to the pristine white of her ankles, the fresh pale green of new sprouts.
Her eyes were plain, as if interested in nothing, yet clear to the bottom, aiming straight for the heart. She wore a long dress made of leaves, with two pairs of transparent wings on her back, floating steadily in the air by their aid.
