Fennel smiled and said, “I was in the same state back then as you are now. When I found out about the door, my worldview collapsed too. Many things that we think are illusory actually exist.”
Philip turned to Fennel and asked, “Don’t you think these things are beyond what people can understand now?”
Fennel shrugged and said, “What about it? It’s like the people during medieval times. They couldn’t understand these high-tech products like cell phones, cars, and satellites that we have now either.”
“Besides, fairy tales about flying to the moon. Hasn’t that already been realized now?”
Fennel continued, “Third, are different. We can’t use our current vision to look at future development. In the past, I also felt that such a special power was beyond the world, a divine power. But after entering the door, I realized that the world has always been like this. It’s just that we’ve been detached from it and became ignorant.”
Philip turned to Fennel and asked, “What do you mean?”
Fennel chuckled and said, “Everything in the world has its value and rationality. If humans can make use of tools and everything else that can be used, why can’t we make use of our bodies? Is it because we cannot, or have we somehow limited ourselves from doing so?”
Hearing this, Philip’s heart jolted. Suddenly, he seemed to have been enlightened. After careful consideration, however, the thought slipped away from his mind again.
Fennel added, “Don’t think too much. You’ve been exposed to something that the world cannot touch or understand. Just learn to make use of it.”
Philip took a deep breath. His gaze cleared, and he nodded in response. Soon, they returned to Uppercreek. Philip headed back to the hotel directly. Wynn was already asleep. He carefully walked to Wynn’s bed, looked at Wynn who was sleeping on her side, and gently covered her with a thin blanket.
She was still as beautiful as ever.
Suddenly, Wynn woke up. She opened her drowsy eyes, saw Philip sitting by her bed, and exclaimed sweetly, “Are you back?”
Then, she sat up with Philip’s help.
Philip smiled and said, “What are you doing up?”
