"It's okay, it's okay."

"If you don't want to say something, you don't have to say it; if you don't want to comment, you don't have to comment."

"But I wonder what would happen if the 'world' knew that you so easily helped your 'lover' to commit evil."

The short boy looked at 'Wheel of Fortune' with a half-smile, "After all, although I secretly cooperate with 'The World,' you—'Wheel of Fortune,' are unaware of this."

"Without knowing about this, you tried to help 'the lover' destroy our beautiful world. Oh dear, if I were 'the world,' my heart would probably break."

"After all, the 'lover' plan wouldn't have been implemented so quickly without your involvement."

Upon hearing these words, the blonde girl's face flashed with panic and fear, but it quickly disappeared.

"The 'world' is all-knowing. The fact that he didn't blame me shows that he understood my situation and difficulties at the time."

Even so, the girl's tightly clasped hands seemed to reveal her inner unease.

She wasn't sure.

Seemingly sensing her concern, the short boy changed the subject.

"Oh, there's no need to worry so much. This is my world. When I came here, I already set up a barrier to block out all external interference."

"Including 'the world'."

He emphasized this point with a smile.

"So you don't have to worry about your shameful deeds being discovered. However, if you can hand over his emotions and memories, then I think this matter will never reach the 'world'."

The short boy points to moderation.

"Although you are greedy, such an important thing, even if you claim to have eaten it, I don't think it has disappeared."

He said it with absolute certainty.

"Wheel of Fortune" raised her face, looked at the short boy who seemed to have victory in his grasp, and then at her expressionless brother, Restraint, her face showing a conflicted expression.

"Actually, is this something I can say...?"

She whispered, her uncertain gaze drifting towards the white-haired boy beside her.

The short boy also cast a slightly puzzled glance his way.

"I want to know, what do you want my memories for?"

Restraint looked at the boss.

"Of course... it should be returned to its rightful owner."

The short boy blinked and said, "If the gods are not lying, I believe that you, with your memories intact, will choose to stand on the right side."

"And aren't you curious about what secrets your lost memories hold? Or would you rather be a puppet, manipulated by others?"

The white-haired youth smiled as if he had just understood something.

"So all that going through all that trouble was to win me over."

"Have you thought this through? The consequences of disobeying my brother are not something everyone can bear. Look, 'lovers' are a prime example."

"Or do you want to become the second 'lover'?"

There was no aggression in his restrained words, "Besides, you have no trust in me anymore. Who knows if your barrier will work? Who knows if this is another test from you with ulterior motives?"

The short boy nodded. "I understand, I completely understand. Anyone would think the same way."

“I know that words alone cannot move you, which is why I asked the ‘Wheel of Fortune’ for my memories. Memories don’t lie; they are far more useful than a thousand words from me.”

The short boy spoke, his gaze, slightly unfriendly, fixed on the blonde girl once more.

"Wheel of Fortune" flinched, then mustered its courage and looked at the boss, "What? If you keep pushing me, I'll tell 'the world' about your betrayal right now."

The short boy, however, seemed fearless, saying, "Then go ahead and tell them."

This attitude immediately made "Wheel of Fortune" think of something. "Could it be that this time, 'World's' Lord sent you to test our...loyalty?"

The boss smiled but did not answer the question.

"I'm saying this one last time: if you don't give it to me, I'm going to take it by force."

"When you become my prisoner, I won't be as merciful as before. I will treat you like my experimental subject, peeling away your layers to study you. I believe that one day, I will find that memory."

"The wheel of fortune, what I have in abundance is patience and time."

The blonde girl pouted, looking like she was about to cry.

This immediately drew a sneer. The white-haired youth looked at the boss and said, "I'm still here. Do you think I'm dead?"

The boss's smile remained unchanged; his attitude suggested that his threat to the "Wheel of Fortune" was merely a casual remark.

"So there's really no way to sway him?" he muttered to himself.

"Never mind then, I'm not in a hurry, I have plenty of time."

The short boy then looked at Restraint, "But... I think I need to remind you of something—"

"'The World' is not your so-called 'brother'. Remember that girl with the beautiful wavy blonde hair? She was said to be 'the lover's' lover, but she wasn't. Her appearance, and everything else, from the very beginning, back to a very, very long time ago, was a complete conspiracy."

"I can hardly imagine that anyone would be so bored as to play a perverted dating simulation game."

"I'm a little worried. You're the next target. Be careful of the emotional traps set by 'the world'."

"You've lost your memory—"

The short boy stretched out his hand and pointed to his head. "He can add whatever settings he wants to himself. Everything is fake. I hope that before your real memories return, you will not follow in the footsteps of 'Lover'."

After the short boy finished speaking, his figure disappeared in the next second.

The "Wheel of Fortune" was left standing there, its large eyes filled with confusion.

"Brother Restraint, what...what does he mean?"

"Maybe he's jealous of the special treatment my brother gives me. But 'the world' is my brother, after all. Isn't it normal for him to treat me differently and give me more support?"

"In short, I don't really understand his thought process."

The blonde girl blinked, then nodded as if suddenly realizing something. "I see. That kind of scoundrel is indeed very narrow-minded."

"Brother Restraint should just stay Restraint; it seems no one else is more suitable for this position."

"I believe the 'world' will agree."

The white-haired boy didn't speak again. After a long while, he reached out and ruffled the soft hair of "Wheel of Fortune". "Wheel of Fortune, you don't understand. If I become the true Temperance, then I will become my brother's subordinate. Then our relationship will become distant."

"You need to understand, my brother is someone who doesn't show any mercy when his subordinates make mistakes, and besides, I'm not capable of doing that job right now."

"It's fine as it is now, just as I hoped, with you by my side for leisurely strolls, and my brother as my strong support."

Everything is wonderful.
