Nikola Tesla, who was about to assure Sacred Knight Roland of his unwavering loyalty, suddenly found a circle appearing beneath his feet.
Nikola Tesla let out an "Ah!" and fell freely on the spot, disappearing from Roland's side.

The Supreme Mage pinched his orchid fingers, made an enigmatic hand gesture full of mystical Daoist charm, and, sitting cross-legged in mid-air, smiled at Yi Lin: "We are all your 'Thoughts.' Even if we die, the versions of us still alive in reality are nothing more than fleeting nightmares—vague memories to be recalled upon waking. You needn't grieve for us. No matter how despairing the situation, my dear friend, please remember to keep hope alive in your heart."
After finishing those words,
without waiting for Yi Lin's astonished response, the Supreme Mage waved his hand, opening a teleportation circle and disappeared right before Yi Lin.
Yi Lin remained silent.
