"Too slow."
Li Aozi casually complained, stood up straight, and stood shoulder to shoulder with Xides, saying flatly:
"From the time I came into contact with the people from the Empire, I've been calling you over. It's dragging too long, in hindsight, I should have called Truly instead."
"Really? Compared to that sideshow that's starting to develop self-awareness, I'm truly a part of you."
Xides placed both hands behind his head, and did some stretching exercises:
"Humanity and divinity ultimately have their differences; you know this well—no, whatever I say are actually your true inner thoughts."
"Naturally so."
Li Aozi raised his hand, gently brushed it across his face, his fingertips swept over the skin which immediately transformed into the bright and beautiful face of a woman, once again taking on the guise of the sunset priest with golden eyes and flame hair:
"You are me, and I am you."
Xides extended his hand to hold the slender palm of the flame-haired girl.
