"Then we... shall see."
He murmured softly, a shadow flickering across his eyes.
Yaguba paused, gulped a couple of sips of seawater, thinking you want to turn into a blackened grade schooler too?
Cezar pulled out a bird feather from the World Oddity Annals.
He leaned against the chair, drooping his eyes, quietly staring at the fiery red bird feather, the edges of the feather shedding tiny sparks like embers.
"What use is a Phoenix feather anyway?" Yaguba asked, "Could Li Qingping really hope a bird feather can save you?"
Cezar said nonchalantly, "Li Qingping told me before, the 'Phoenix' is different from other commonplace-level anecdotes; it can be upgraded."
"Upgraded?"
"Yes."
"Upgraded from commonplace-level to generational-level Anecdote Fragment?"
"Correct," Cezar said, "Li Qingping said only he knows this, and told me not to tell others." He paused, "Li Qingping also said, when that day comes, he will give the Phoenix to me."
