2 hours later they took a bath but again not together even though William insisted several times. Lily thought he was cute but wondered why he wanted to bathe with her all the time because she just had to wash herself. She would never be able to understand how a man's brain really worked, but she knew they were simple. They had a drawer for car keys and a drawer for everything else.
She was missing her last cleric Quest in Sanszhin which was supposed to give her eternal life so now she hoped Goddess Hebe wasn't lying to her or she would have to visit her again.
When they came down to the living room, she saw that everyone was present, and they were sitting and enjoying themselves except for Arba who was standing at the entrance and looking out through the window.
He looked like a statue and Lily walked up to him and looked at him to make sure he wasn't dead but that no one had found out yet. He turned his head to the right and looked at her.
"You can rest whenever you want." she said.
"I'm a puppet now so I don't feel exhaustion like humans do." he said.
Lily didn't care that he used the word 'puppet' even though he was a puppet skill she had used. He could talk and therefore had a soul, and she knew he had once been a boy, so he was definitely alive like them. He wasn't a puppet in her eyes because they were loose souls and didn't have a heart.
Wonder if he has a heart?
She would find out another time when the situation was right.
She went to the others and looked at them and said, “I'm only bringing Arba this time. I'll be home later.”
Violet stood up when she heard her and said, "Let me come with you."
Lily shook her head and said, “No. Stay here with your sisters. I plan to save more from our clan in the future.”
"Thank you very much Mistress." Pearl said bowing to her.
If she was really in danger and Arba died she could use one of her whistles and she also had Jun De. She put on Azrael's black hooded cloak, hoping it could make her invisible even though he had said it couldn't.
She went outside with William and Arba but when she was about to sit on Jun De William summoned his white griffin and she knew he wanted them to sit together like they had done the other times.
She looked at Arba and said, “Get on Jun De and put this on.” and threw him a black hooded cloak.
She was afraid his red eyes would attract attention and gave him a pink rabbit mask which he put on.

They first flew to the obelisk in the center so she could soul bind and then they flew towards the portal.
While they were in the air she asked, "Can we buy an obelisk for the home?"
"No, unfortunately, but a guild has one, so that's why most people live in their guild." William replied.
Lily sighed and hoped she could find something in the future that could send her home when she died because it was annoying that she always ended up in the capital. Since her girls weren't soul bound because they didn't have a system, she didn't know what would happen when they died. Would their souls disappear even if they were demons and was that even possible?
When they stood on the platform in Sanszhin, William looked at her and sighed because he didn't want to let her go. He was happy with the time they had spent together and didn't know when he would see her again but remembered the festival.
“That festival is in 3 days. I assume we'll see you there.” he said hopeful.
Lily smiled and kissed him softly and said, "I promised Fergus’ sister to help so I'm forced to be there."
William hugged her and they said goodbye to each other. Lily mounted Jun De with Arba behind her and they flew towards the Holy Temple of Sanszhin.
When they had flown for 2 hours, they saw a large white round city which had a high white wall around it. When they landed at the entrance, they saw a lot of people coming in and out and there were 5 guards on each side checking people. There were also guards on a lookout tower over the entrance and Lily wondered why there was so much security here. The town looked popular so that was probably why.
As they walked to the entrance, she asked Jun De, “Why are there so many people here?”
"It's the Spirit City that has things that can boost different things." he answered.
When they got inside it was full of people everywhere and all the shops were busy and not even one was without customers. If they had things that could boost people like she knew would be greedy and come here all the time.
"Is it something you just buy?" she asked.
"No, you have to complete some quests to get them." Jun De replied.
They had to go to the temple as it was forbidden to fly in here and it was in the center, but Lily was fine with that because then she could see a bit more of the city.
She suddenly passed a stall that had a lot of small white balls that looked like golf balls and went over to study them more closely. They looked like pearls and were incredibly beautiful. She noticed that there were no customers here and looked at the owner and saw that it was an elderly gentleman. She felt sorry for him and looked at the balls again.
There was no name and no price tag and looked at the man again and asked, “Excuse me mister but what are you selling?
"It's spirit pearls that can increase Spirit Flow temporarily." he answered.
Wow, if she could use them, she wouldn't need to harness Spirit Flow all the time.
"Who can use them?" she asked, wondering why people hadn't bought them.
"Those who have unlocked Flow Master." he answered.
Wow, Lily was thrilled and chose to buy them all.
The man was surprised when he saw it and was speechless and studied her more closely. Suddenly his eyes widened in shock and asked, “Is your name Lily by any chance?”
Lily was surprised and replied, "Yes, do we know each other?"
The man cleared his throat and replied, "No, you just looked like someone I once knew with the same name."
Lily didn't think anything more of it and said goodbye nicely and they continued towards the temple.
She was happy and ecstatic because she had had a super harvest. The spirit pearls would be useful to her, and she planned to come back here and buy more in the future. Now she did not regret that she had unlocked Flow Master because it was her best choice ever.
