Time seemed to freeze for a moment.

But just for a moment.

Eileen quickly felt ashamed for actually believing, even for a split second, what the young man across from her had said.

"Haha, didn't see that coming. You're quite the joker, aren't you?"

"You don't believe me?" Renji shot back.

Eileen just laughed it off.

" Emperor Ashen? You talking about someone who tiptoes around dead bodies, scared of getting dirty? Or someone who can't handle the smell of blood? Or maybe a newbie who can't even tie a knot?"

Renji realized he might've thought too little of this scavenger girl.

At first, she seemed all talk.

But she noticed a lot of his habits that he thought were normal.

Perhaps she could even guess what he was thinking at this moment.

"Hmph, don't underestimate the eyes of us scavengers. We make a living out of this, and I'm pretty good at reading people. You're just like those pampered young masters from the base cities, cut from the same cloth."

"Oh, wait, I almost forgot. You're a bit better than them. At least you're innocent enough to tense up when touched by the opposite sex."

Eileen's provocative gaze at the end seemed like a form of revenge for Renji's previous actions.

Renji didn't bother to defend himself, simply spreading his hands in resignation.

"Alright, it was just a joke. But I really am from 500 years ago, from the era you call the 'Old Wasteland.' I had a close relationship with the Emperor and was put into this stone coffin for some reason."

His story seemed to make sense to her, at least a bit.

After all, it perfectly explained why he had so many "common sense" questions about this world.

For Eileen, the idea of talking to someone from 500 years ago was shocking but not entirely unbelievable. After all, there were living examples.

The five personal guards who had once been by the side of the Emperor were now the highest authorities in this world and also came from the Old Wasteland.

That's why there were still many crazies, including some big shots in the base cities, who longed to become an Eclipse. Apart from the immense power, they also sought the eternal youth and vitality brought by the Tainted Miasma, as well as the extension of life by centuries.

"I can't believe I am chatting with a 500-year-old antique," Eileen mumbled to herself.

But she quickly focused on the main point and urgently asked Renji,

"You said earlier that you can control the Tainted Miasma, and even turn me back into a normal person later?"

"That's right. Did you feel any effects of the Miasma energy during our fight or our conversation just now? Isn't that proof enough?" Renji responded.

Eileen paused to think.

She had seen Eclipses before. In fact, she'd never forget "that night" That's why she was so sure that what Renji was saying was true, and that she was different from other Eclipses.

"Alright, let's save the friendly chat for after we get out of this creepy place," she said.

Renji agreed. He couldn't stand the smell and the dead bodies lying around in this underground chamber any longer.

He walked over to Eileen and untied the ropes that bound her. But when he saw the tattered state of her coat, revealing wounds underneath, he paused.

These were minor injuries she'd gotten while chasing down the Kobolds. Although they were small and had already started to scab over, they could still leave scars if not properly treated.

Renji noticed that Eileen had several similar scars. When she saw where he was looking, she didn't seem to care. Scars were not a big deal for scavengers like her.

However, this was a good opportunity to test something.

After glancing at his skill bar and seeing "Divine Healing," Renji focused his mind and placed his hand over Eileen's wounds. As she looked puzzled, he silently muttered,

[Divine Healing]

Instantly, a radiant but not blinding white light emanated from Renji's palm, enveloping Eileen.

She had never felt such warmth, as if she were soaking in a hot spring. The light seemed to flow over every inch of her skin.

It took away her fatigue and eased her tense, anxious mood. Her mind went blank, and she felt as if she were floating on clouds.

Then a tingling sensation spread throughout her body. It was a strange feeling, like an electric current passing through her, making her want to moan in comfort.

In the real world, the scavenger woman bathed in the holy light had black substances being expelled from her skin. These were impurities and dirt from her body, now completely disappearing in the light.

The whole process didn't last long, just about ten seconds or so.

But when the light from Renji's hand faded and Eileen's mind came back down from the clouds, both of them were a bit surprised.

After Renji's [Divine Healing] skill, not only were Eileen's new cuts fully healed, but even her old scars had disappeared.

The most shocking part was when Eileen looked down at her hands, which had gotten noticeably lighter. She touched her face and felt how soft and smooth her skin was. She hadn't felt this way since she was 14, after losing her dad and becoming a scavenger in the Blackhole Plains.

"You"

Eileen startled, her eyes filled with confusion, surprise, and mixed emotions, as she looked at the black-haired young man from 500 years ago.

After Renji finished untying her, he reached out his hand to Eileen, who was still kneeling on the ground, a bit stunned.

"Renji, that's my name. And you?"

Eileen almost blurted out, 'Don't you already know?' After seeing all the amazing things he'd done, she'd stopped wondering how he knew her name.

But in the end, she took a deep breath and said, "Eileen."

Then Eileen grabbed Renji's hand and pulled herself up from the ground.
