Collapse, but Stand users

After the Lawgiver of Knowledge was defeated, those suffering from sedation awoke.

Suddenly, lawyers have once again come into the public eye.

However, some people have started attacking you based on what happened to you in the illusion.

[Furthermore, after the Fusion Warrior project was exposed, people began to question the legitimacy of the Firemoth.]

[The bow is put away after the birds are all gone; you know the reason for all this is that people are living too comfortably.]

But arguing too much with foolish people is just a waste of time; the most important thing right now is to improve yourself.

The development of the Divine Key is progressing steadily. Meanwhile, Velvey begins to study the armed dolls that May brought back.

The Fusion Warrior Project continues to be promoted. After experiencing the battle against the Herrscher of Knowledge, Kevin deeply felt the powerlessness when facing the Herrscher, and submitted his application to become a Fusion Warrior again.

This time, you agreed to his request.

[Afterwards, everyone except Kevin underwent the Fusion Warrior surgery, except for Mebius, who unexpectedly became a Stand user.]

After defeating the Herrscher of Knowledge, Dr. Mei applied to return to the Mu Continent to continue her research into the mysteries of the Quantum Sea.

But you plan to keep her in Twilight Street for a while because Seele's eighteenth birthday is coming up soon.

It's almost October 18th again, and Seele will soon become a legally recognized adult.

"What gift should I give Seele?" you couldn't help but think.

You'd like to ask others what gifts they've prepared for reference.

After asking around, the only thing that seemed normal, aside from the one that didn't answer, was the gift from Qianjie—a doll.

Not to mention that Qianjie was done by his own hands.

"Looks like I'll have to go back to my old ways." After racking your brains, you still couldn't figure out what to give Seele. You sighed and decided to bake her a cake yourself.

Making cakes is a piece of cake for you. To ensure the cake's freshness, you got up early on Seele's birthday to start making it.

[The cake was finally finished before Seele woke up.]

“Seele, it’s your birthday today. Is there anything you want me to do?” Father Pucci asked as Seele walked downstairs.

"Um... I'd like the priest to take me to an amusement park, is that alright? I've never been before."

“Of course.” Father Pucci nodded.

Since there was no amusement park on Dusk Street, Eden suggested going to a nearby city.

......

"What? Don't we need to buy tickets?" Father Pucci asked Eden, who was leading the group straight into the amusement park.

“Of course not, Father Pucci, I’ve already bought this amusement park,” Eden chuckled.

Father Pucci sighed, still not quite understanding the mindset of the wealthy.

Eden seemed to understand what Father Pucci was thinking and explained, “I may have a fortune in gold, but to me it is no different from the dirt on the roadside.”

"Its only value lies in bringing convenience and happiness to people."

"Clap clap clap." Alicia applauded Eden after hearing her speech.

"You truly are my good Eden, I must praise you!"

"Hehe, then thank you, Ellie."

......

The group entered Eden's amusement park but saw no one else.

"Today is a special day for our little birthday girl, Seele," Eden explained.

Since there was no need to queue, Seele tried out all the rides in the amusement park.

When encountering facilities she's afraid to use, Seele will summon her substitute to take her place.

'Let's just call them Blackie and Whiteie, it'll be easier to pronounce.' Father Pucci thought to make it easier to distinguish between the two.

Looking at Blackie, who was holding his hand tightly, Father Pucci said nothing. He glanced at Aponia behind him and, finding nothing unusual, breathed a sigh of relief.

The day passed quickly, and it seemed that few people had visited the amusement park. On the way back, they all looked like they hadn't had enough.

Feeling the wind blowing in through the car window, Father Pucci felt a little tired and slowly closed his eyes.

“Father, you…” Seele looked at the magnificent clouds on the horizon, wanting to share them with Father Pucci, but when she turned her head, she found that he seemed to have fallen asleep.

"Shh." Aponia pointed at Father Pucci, signaling everyone to keep their voices down.

Everyone nodded and lowered their voices.

Aponia rested Father Pucci's head on her shoulder and gently smoothed the furrowed brow that Father Pucci still had in his sleep.

“Sweet dreams, Father,” Aponia whispered in Father Pucci’s ear.

......

"Father, we're home." A voice came from beside him, and Father Pucci felt someone nudge him, waking him from his sleep.

I opened my eyes, and the afterglow of the setting sun bathed Aponia's figure in a golden hue.

'Home...' Father Pucci sighed, 'If only things could stay like this forever.'

After deeply empathizing with Yoshikage Kira, Father Pucci nodded and got out of the car.

At Seele's birthday party, everyone gave Seele gifts.

"Thank you, thank you everyone." Seele accepted everyone's gifts, her face beaming with joy.

"Hey hey hey, the cake's here!" Pado took out the cake that Father Pucci had made that morning and placed it on the table.

"Make a wish, Seele."

Seele clasped her hands together and then blew out the candle.

"Happy birthday, Seele!" everyone said in unison.

......

After the lights were turned off at night, Father Pucci heard someone knocking on his door.

"Seele, is something the matter?" Father Pucci asked, looking at Seele outside the door.

"Father...Father, I, I!"

Seele blushed, wanting to say something but too embarrassed to speak, and ended up making herself flustered.

'Tsk, my turn!'

Hexi boarded the ship and used his actions to tell Father Pucci the purpose of his visit.

“I’m an adult now, Father.”

The night was long, and the two continued to connect with each other under the moonlight.

Aponia stood at the door for a while, listening to the sounds inside, but did not disturb the two.
