[i]Abyss-Shattering Confections of Surtr's Eye[/i]
[/center]

Eyes glinting with a new, feral light, Mary looked to the small girl who had appeared before her, emerging from a rip in the fabric of the [color=6ecff6]「World」[/color] itself. The simple scan of her eyes told the confectioner enough. Clearly, the existence before her had undergone a tremendous struggle, not far distinct from the great [color=6ecff6]「Three Calamities」[/color] and [color=6ecff6]「Nine Tribulations」[/color] that those who trod the path towards [color=6ecff6]「Eternity」[/color] necessarily faced. Barely escaping with the threads of her severed soul intact, barely having fallen short of that grand apotheosis in which one is made symmetrical above the flesh, she had arrived here.

"Gahaha! Within my mind is that transcendent 「World」 that sees all in this reality! Should you require my consultation, simply ask!" [/color]Roaring with raucous laughter as she tilted her head back, Mary spoke up in reply. As she did, though, her hands moved with a surprising quickness to snatch the coins up and pass forwards a small box of caramels. Truly, this was the essence of a thrifty businessperson. [color=6ecff6]"It is, after all, the duty of I, the 「Blue-Gilded Prophetic Gateway Into the Heart of a False God」, to aid my sidekicks when they require it! Otherwise, how could I ever call myself the heir to the 「Legacy of the Raging Aether」?"[/color]

In what was likely something to be thankful for, it didn't seem that the surrounding individuals took particular note of Mary's overly loud and ostentatious miniature tirade. This could probably be attributed to the fact that, among the din of the parade, her voice was drowned out at a distance, coupled with the fact that many who were listening had probably gotten used to her manner of speech by now. In that sense, this was the best possible vein in which to speak of things that should not exist in the world; if everything said would be dismissed as "Mary's eccentricies", nobody would think anything of it, in contrast to how whispers being traded in a secret location would be perceived.

The candy was a bonus.
