In the heart of the Lava Sea Ruins, Daniel's figure appeared out of thin air.
At the same time, he had already absorbed the entire Mental Plane into his spiritual world. Yet he did not merge it with the Land of Origin—instead, he created a separate, isolated space for it.
Such an enormous plane, now quietly resting within Daniel's mental domain, was a miracle that defied common sense.
He then left a clone of himself within the Mental Plane, tasked with guarding and observing it.
But Daniel hadn't forgotten about the former Emperor of Mind either. Out of respect and consideration, he deliberately constructed a new teleportation array for them.
"This portal can take you to the outside world,"
Daniel said calmly. "You are now free to go wherever you wish."
The former Emperor of Mind smiled softly and waved his hand dismissively.
"You have my gratitude, but the authority you gave me—it means nothing to me. What I truly pursue is freedom."
