Micro-leaf Paulownia

Battling an unusual form of personality dissociation, Motan admits to feeling the weight of immense pressure bearing down on him. Amidst this turmoil, he finds solace in a virtual escape called "The Realm of Innocence," a game that has become his sanctuary from stress.

In the realm where ambiguity reigns, Motan's behavior is unpredictable and impetuous, making him the instigator and mastermind behind myriad events that spiral out of control. Yet, within the sphere of virtue, his resilience and courage shine through, earning him the admiration of many who see him as the epitome of a righteous knight and a fair judge.

When dwelling in the balance of absolute neutrality, he adopts a demeanor of modesty and lethargy, mirroring the ordinary essence of every soul. Conversely, in the domain of chaotic evil, he transforms into a figure of madness and cruelty, embodying the very essence of a demon and deceiver, showing kindness only to himself.

"Tan Mo is the most extraordinary Bard I have ever encountered, though he is... perplexing, to say the least," comments Countess Leisha, reflecting on his complex nature.

"Mor is a man of distinguished integrity! Having met him just once, I am convinced that he is someone one can confidently turn their back to," declares Gwen, the leader of the Rose Rot, acknowledging his noble character.

"If you're in search of the ideal neighbor, look no further than Hei Fan," recommends Alchemist Luna, suggesting his suitability for companionship.

Yet, amidst these varied testimonies, a warning resonates, "Don't talk about that man!" indicating a mysterious, perhaps darker aspect of his persona that remains unexplored.

After, Dave immediately, sweat beading on his forehead, put on his coat and darted to the door, while the person hiding in the wardrobe revealed a smile that could not be described with words...


It was a smile so authentic that it hardly contained any trace of emotion.


In a short while, Dave returned from the doorway, a man shrouded in a large cloak following closely behind him.


Determining the gender of the person was an easy task for Motan. He made this conclusion without even looking at the person's face. The man's walking pace, stride, and some subtle details were enough for him to deduce this.


"My lord!" Showing respect, Dave invited the man to sit in the chair by the table and slightly bowed, "I wonder why you're seeing me in person... instead of contacting me through the whispering book..."
