"What is the answer?"
Bad Day asked.
However, Cui Que suddenly understood something, "Is it... Dusk?"
"Yes. When I confronted my own nature as Dusk, everything started to fall into place— that sense of being a monster completely different from humans came back.
"Not only did it come back, but it also became so clear. Like my instinct, my very desires..."
As Saran spoke, her radiant smile turned somewhat lost.
She held Cui Que in her arms, sighing softly, "If it were 'pretense', I could still use Ultramarine's mask to communicate with you normally.
"But if I reveal my nature... it's just as you have just seen.
"I might even be too lazy to say these words. A perpetually still, infinitely serene, profound and lonely atmosphere enfolds me.
"...It is gradually turning me into a cold tombstone."
Watching Saran, Bad Day frowned slightly.
He eventually sighed deeply.
"What about you?"
