In Douluo Continent, my summoning of Naxi Da was exposed by the heavens.

Paimon sighed, "Insomnia is indeed a serious problem."

Lauma continued, "For others, the change in lunar distance force is like waves gently lapping the beach; it's easy to adapt to."

But for me, the lunar tidal forces were like a raging tsunami, washing over my body.

Of course, as I've grown older, I've learned how to control my senses and strength, making it less agonizing.

But precisely because of this, I was forced to take the path of concealment.

Lauma has now truly gotten to the point.

"Ever since I learned to pray, my people have pointed to the moon in the sky and told me that it is the remaining frost moon, the only truth."

But I asked, why? I didn't feel anything from there.

Later I learned that they couldn't tell where the real tides came from, and they couldn't perceive the real moon hidden beyond the sky.

The moon is an illusion; this is a conclusion I reached a long time ago.

But there was no one I could confide in, at least not before.

Am I the one who's wrong? Is the moon an illusion, or is my perception an illusion? I often ask myself this.

Upon hearing Lauma's story, the moon goddess Arya sighed in sympathy.

"This Moon Singer discovered the real moon outside the false sky solely through his own perception; he's truly remarkable."

"Having such powerful perception is not a good thing for her, as she herself said, she would fall into self-doubt."

Most people wouldn't believe her, so she had to silently bear it all herself, even having to hide it from her closest relatives.

Moreover, if she were to reveal something she shouldn't, the ruler of the heavens might target her, bringing about a devastating catastrophe.

"Frost Moon Goddess Kanon said calmly, but there was also pity in her words from Duila Uma."

"Tianli should be asleep. I destroyed the Water God's throne and returned the ancient dragon's power to the Water Dragon King, but Tianli still hasn't awakened."

The little secret revealed by this Moon-Worshipping Envoy should not be enough to awaken the principles of Heaven.

Fucarus then spoke up, and the goddess of March looked at Fucarus with a different gaze.

Back on the sky, the traveler gave Lauma a positive answer: the moon in Teyvat was indeed an illusion, and the real Frost Moon lay outside the illusory heavens.

"Thank you. When you identified yourself as the One who has come, I knew you could confirm the truth for me."

Hearing you say that, I felt a great weight lifted off my shoulders, just as I had imagined.

"I think I understand why you can't tell others; a faith that has lasted for hundreds of years cannot be easily changed."

"Yes, this is what I mean by concealment. Because I know too much of the truth, I have to hide it from my people, and my daily prayers are like comforting myself with illusions."

Now in a much better mood, Lauma changed the subject.

"Traveler, you've already seen our Kutar, haven't you?"

"Huh? When? How come I didn't know?"

"It's when I go for a walk alone."

"No wonder."

What kind of person do you think she is?

"A little lightheaded, and a little lonely."

"Light and airy? What do you mean by that?"

Paimon didn't quite understand how to describe a person using these three words.

"I can understand what the traveler means. That goddess is indifferent to things outside of herself, but you can't blame her for that."

Although I had no one to confide in, I still have family, I have the home of Shimotsuki no Ko.

The girl born under the moon may have possessed neither.

No, it should be said that she could have had it, but the former Child of Frostmoon betrayed her.

It's really not easy for Lauma to see all this clearly, after all, not everyone dares to question authority or history.

Not everyone is willing to admit their mistakes; most leaders of various factions are unwilling to admit their errors.

Lauma, however, was able to say all of this directly, and even wanted to change it, which surpasses many, many people.

"The current Frostmoon Children are walking the wrong path, praying to a false moon, praying to gods who cannot answer us."

I want to change all of this, but the Fools are pressing us relentlessly right now. It's time for the Frostmoon Children to unite, and I need to wait for an opportunity.

Just then, Gapuy arrived again; her daughter Galina's illness had worsened.

The scene shifted to Galina, and the child's suffering easily evoked empathy.

Many people watching the sky blamed Galina's mother, Gapui, for not taking her child to a doctor when the child was so seriously ill.

Knowing full well that prayer was useless, she still stubbornly prayed to the moon, which was utterly foolish.

But as a mother, she truly cared for her child; otherwise, she wouldn't have gone to find Lauma in the middle of the night.

This contradictory situation is really perplexing, and I don't know what to say.

"When you were still the goddesses of March, and you encountered a mother praying for her seriously ill child, would you have responded to her prayers?"

Fucarus then asked the goddess of March.

The goddesses of March exchanged a glance, then shook their heads.

"We will not respond to such prayers. If we respond to one, then countless prayers will be waiting for us to respond to."

We cannot fulfill all the wishes of the believers; our primary duty is simply to maintain the stability of Teyvat.

"Hipper, isn't that why she left the Frostmoon Children? Human greed is a bottomless pit, endless and insatiable."

Fucarus deeply agreed with Sannata's words. Having spent five hundred years in the Cardinals of the Proclamation and Judgment and witnessed countless cases of all kinds, Fucarus had gained a deeper understanding of human nature.

Overall, humans are quite good; they possess many admirable qualities.

But on a personal level, the bottom line for humanity can be lowered to unimaginable levels.

Back on the celestial screen, Lauma chased Gapui out and then treated Galina.

However, Galina was treated not with any divine power, but with medicine and Lauma's blood.

The Traveler and Paimon were shocked to see Lauma release silver blood to heal Galina.

"Traveler, Paimon, please keep this secret for me."

"That is..."

"That's the medicine prescribed by the doctor in Xia Town, plus my blood. My blood has the effect of neutralizing the lunar distance force for ordinary people."

The traveler glanced at Lauma's hand; although the wound had long since healed, the scars were still faintly visible.

It is clear that this was not the first time she had used this method to treat her people.
