While walking in the forest, Henard talked about the rules of their circle to Eden behind him, "first of all, this part of our circle is only the periphery, and the youngest one should be you, only five years old.

"I did this not only for you, but also for myself. Because I hope that you are the extension of me, so please go on for me."

As time passed, the man's face gradually blurred. In the past, it only took him a second to remember the face, but now it took ten seconds or twenty seconds to remember it.
