Sannada truly cared for her little sister Columbia and didn't want her to try such a dangerous method.

"If your friends don't find the message you left, then you'll be..."

"No, that can't be..."

"what?"

"They'll find out, I know."

Although he didn't know why Columbia was so confident, he knew she must have her reasons, and Canon chose to trust her.

"Could you tell me the specific method?"

"What I need to do is very simple... First, I need to leave my 'soul' here."

Seeing this, Nefer also sighed. She had seen the rest of the content through Nuonnota before.

Columbia's confidence likely stemmed from her understanding of her abilities.

She placed all her hopes on her friends, and as Columbia's friends, how could they possibly let her down?

On the celestial canvas, the goddess of March still couldn't understand Columbia's meaning.

"Soul? Do you mean your divinity?"

Arya asked, and Columbia nodded.

"Yes, I left a small part of my soul in the future, so small that it was almost undetected by this prison."

It resonates with my soul right now, and I believe that when the time comes, it can serve as the anchor point needed to bring my soul back to the reality of the future.

"Like the gravitational pull that connects the earth and the moon."

"That's right, in the future where I live, the moon was thrown into the false sky, but I can still feel its presence."

And the part of my soul that I left behind is still connected to me now; my friends can feel my presence through it.

"But... can my soul really just stay here like this?"

Sannada still expressed doubts, after all, so much time had passed and even their March Goddess hadn't figured out the characteristics of this prison.

Columbia then said, "On my way here, I met an ordinary person who had wandered into this place by mistake."

His body has long since vanished, but his soul remains here.

Before that, he encountered a former enemy who, like him, retained his complete soul, and the power that had been corrupting his body dissipated.

"In other words... this space focuses on imprisoning our divinity and power, and doesn't place as much emphasis on the escape of our bodies."

Canon said he understood.

"But even if the body can penetrate the prison, without the divine authority to control it, isn't it just a helpless shell?"

"Could it be that you just said, 'You didn't leave alive...'"

Sannata was clever; she had already figured out what Columbia was going to do.

"That's right, I will transform my body into moonlight and shower it upon Nordkalai. It will become a force that protects Nordkalai, quietly merging into the earth, awaiting the return of my soul."

But... I can't do these things on my own.

I need your help, no, I beg for your help.

Columbia was fully aware of what her request meant. Although Columbia was the sister of the goddess of March, they had only just met.

Columbia herself found it absurd to ask the goddess of March to give up everything, even her life, to help her.

But she had no choice but to make this request, because it was the only solution she could think of at the moment.

Ouyang Kong glanced at Fukalos, then at the Great Tree King; sometimes it was quite interesting.

The world of Teyvat is never short of people with a spirit of dedication, such as Fukalos and the Great Tree King.

Or rather, beneath the underlying code of the demon god's lover, most demon gods are not lacking in the determination to die.

Even Inazuma's giant snake, Orobas, was no exception.

Of course, there are also selfish people in Teyvat, and that beast doctor is the most typical example.

Colombia's current predicament is entirely due to him.

If it weren't for Columbia's good luck and everyone's joint efforts, the Beast Doctor might have actually succeeded in seizing March's power.

Back on the screen, upon hearing Columbia's request, the goddess of March wore a gentle smile.

Arya spoke first to Columbia, saying, "My dear sister, you don't need to be so respectful to us."

As I said, we are nothing more than the afterglow of bygone history.

You were born alone in the distant future and have lived through long and lonely years. How could I bear to let your story remain in this prison?

Don't forget, we're your sisters, your family.

Columbia was truly moved by Arya's words.

"Sister Arya is right. A long, long time ago, I wanted a little sister, otherwise I would always be criticized and pointed at by my two older sisters."

Now that I finally have the chance to be an older sister and help such a lovely little sister return to her own world, how could I possibly hesitate?

"Sannata..."

Hearing Sannada's words, Columbia was even more moved. Now, only the Frost Moon Goddess remained silent.

"I'm sorry, I know this is a capricious request, but your Frost Moon has not yet shattered."

"Oh no, please don't misunderstand, Columbia. I just couldn't help but think back to the past of the three of us sisters."

You can't imagine how happy I was when I heard you talk about the future world, the future Frostmoon Children, and your lovely and friendly friends.

Knowing that the people on Earth have lived out such a rich future, there is nothing more gratifying for us, the peaceful inhabitants of Vishtiwat.

If your plan can save them, save Nordkalley, then I will certainly give you everything I can.

Besides, the three of us sisters have been together since birth; I would never abandon them to live alone.

"Sister Canon..."

"However, allow me to ask one last question, Columbia."

"What's the problem?"

Why are you covering your eyes?

Sanna also asked.

"Yes, I was curious when I first met you, but I was afraid of touching on your privacy, so I didn't ask any questions."

Columbia paused for a moment before continuing.

"I used to be unwilling to look at the world, thinking it was full of falsehoods and lies."

I once tried to shut down my feelings, to seal my heart, until I returned to my true home.

"Is that how it is? You may not have seen that false sky again, but you also missed some real and precious things. For example, the smiles of your friends."

Promise me, Columbia, when you return to the future, open your eyes wide and look at this world, look at your friends.
