Back in the void, Kaixi faced the endless darkness and silence, and a faint wave of emotion arose in her heart.

Here, there is neither the passage of time nor the boundaries of space, as if everything has lost its meaning.

However, she had to come back here because she had something important to ask Carl.

Although she did not have much affection for this land of nothingness, she knew that this was a necessary step.

There was a question in her mind, a question that only Karl could answer.

In Kathy's opinion, Carl's research on the void is in-depth and extensive, and he may know more about this space than she does.

That’s why she chose to come back here, hoping to get an answer from Karl.

In the silence, Kaixi released her perception and searched for Carl's breath.

She could sense all the creatures here, including those hiding in the shadows.

Her perception was like a huge net, covering the entire void.

Soon, she found Carl.

When he appeared in her sight, Kaixi couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Karl was not studying the void as she imagined, but was looking at her with a smile, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

"Your Highness Kaixi." Carl's voice broke the silence of the void, his tone full of respect and kindness.

However, Kathy did not reciprocate his enthusiasm.

Her expression remained indifferent, as if she didn't care about anything.

Looking directly into Karl’s eyes, his tone was full of urgency: “Did you expect me to come looking for you?”

Karl shook his head, his expression still as calm as water: "Your Highness Kaixi, although the big clock can calculate many things, everything about you is unpredictable."

Hearing this, Kaixi frowned slightly. She didn't expect Karl to answer like this.

Carl smiled and said, "I know your doubts. Regarding the void, I may be able to give you some answers."

Kaixi crossed his arms and said, "You are right. The reason I came to you this time is indeed because of the Void."

After all, apart from the matters concerning the void, Kaixi had no other questions to ask Carl.

She sat down habitually. There was no need for any extra decorations in this void. She only needed to face Karl to start their conversation.

Carl, standing opposite him, still maintained his scholarly demeanor, his deep eyes seemed to be able to see through everything.

However, Kathy remained wary and suspicious of him.

She knew that although Carl was a scholar, his goals and ambitions were difficult to understand.

"In the void, my emotions are slipping away quickly, and you should be the same too." Kaixi said softly.

Karl smiled slightly, as if he had already seen through Kaixi's thoughts: "Your Highness Kaixi, are you talking about desire?" He could always point out the core of the problem.

"Let's just say so." Kaixi did not deny it. "After all, desire is also a part of emotion."

Carl shook his head slightly, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes: "Your Highness Kaixi, I lost my human emotions tens of thousands of years ago. I have no desires anymore." His words revealed a sense of detachment and indifference.

Kathy looked at Karl with some surprise. She didn't expect him to face his past so frankly.

But even so, she remained wary of Karl.

Carl didn't seem to care about Kaixi's reaction. He continued to pace in the void, as if this vast space was his stage.

He said softly: "In this void, we are all products of the void era. Even though I lost the war a thousand years ago, lost to you, Your Highness, who entered the void with me, I don't regret it."

"Because I have gained something more valuable—a deeper exploration and understanding of the void."

Kathy frowned slightly. She didn't expect Carl to talk about the war so frankly.

That war was a painful memory for them.

But Carl seemed to have let it go long ago, leaving only the yearning and pursuit for the void.

"Compared to me, Carl, you would rather come to this empty world with Liang Bing." Kaixi suddenly spoke, with a hint of sarcasm and provocation in her words.

Carl stopped and turned to look at Kaixi. There was no emotion in his eyes, as if he was already accustomed to Kaixi's provocation.

He smiled and replied: "Liang Bing is my best friend, and she also has a deep interest in the void."

"But Your Highness Kaixi, don't forget that we are all in the void at this moment, aren't we?"

Kathy was silent for a moment. She knew Carl was right.

They are all in this void at the moment, and the past and the future have become blurred.

Looking at Carl opposite her, Kaixi's expression became increasingly cold.

There was displeasure in her voice, as if the conversation with Karl was a torture for her.

"Okay, Carl, don't change the subject." Kaixi interrupted him rudely, "Even if you don't have desires, you can still express them. Let me think about it... um... For example, ambition."

Carl was not surprised. He nodded calmly in approval.

"Everyone has ambition, including you," he said calmly, "but ambition is not always a bad thing. It can push us to pursue higher goals and achieve greater ideals."

"Everyone has ambition, even you angels are no exception."

He gave an example: "Like Holy Kesha, her ambition is to implement her justice order throughout the universe and not allow other civilizations to engage in arms competition. Her ambition makes her one of the most powerful beings in the universe."

Kathy did not refute, she acknowledged her mother's ambition and power.

But she also knew that she was not here to discuss this with Karl.

"I don't deny my ambitions." She said coldly, "But I didn't come to you this time to discuss these boring topics. I want to know how to solve the problem of emotional loss in the void."

She couldn't imagine what she would become if her emotions continued to flow.

It was too tricky, she couldn't even guarantee that she would still have emotions tomorrow.

"This is a very tricky question." Carl's expression became serious. "In the void, time and space lose their meaning, and emotions become blurred and fleeting."

He paused and continued: "However, I think you can start with the essence of the void, try to understand it and master it. Only in this way, you may be able to find a way to solve the loss of emotions."

Kathy didn't say anything, she was thinking about what Karl said.

She knew it wasn't an easy thing to do, but she also knew that it might be her only choice now.

"Okay, Carl." Kathy finally nodded, but her eyes remained vigilant and scrutinizing.

She stared at Carl, her blue eyes full of distrust and warning.

"Maybe you're right, or maybe... Hehe, anyway, just stay here and don't try any tricks."

Carl didn't care about Kathy's attitude and he still maintained a relaxed smile.

Wearing a blue scholar's hood, his golden hair slightly appeared from under the brim, shining with a soft luster.

His eyes were hidden in the shadow of his hood, but one could still feel the wisdom and calmness flashing in them.

"Your Highness Kaixi, we are now in the same dimension, and each other's strength is clear to see." Carl shook his head slightly, as if telling Kaixi that he had nothing to hide.

"I just want to study the void. This is my only pursuit."

He is not just an ambitious person, he also has knowledge and ideals that he wants to pursue.

However, Kathy did not completely believe what Carl said.

She knew Karl's intelligence and ability, but she also knew his ambition and scheming.

She knew that she had to be vigilant and cautious in her dealings with Karl.

"Okay, I'll remember your words." Kaixi said coldly.

After saying that, she stood up and prepared to leave the void.

Although the conversation with Karl was a little unpleasant, she had to find a way to deal with the emotional drain as soon as possible.

She couldn't let her emotions continue to drain away, otherwise she would no longer be herself.

Carl sighed softly and then devoted himself to his study of the void again.

This is his only pursuit.
