章節 1245: A Merged World, Shattered

In the dimly lit office, the sounds of the mansion winding down from the day's festivities filtered through the heavy oak door. Inside, Arthur sat in his leather-bound chair, his blind gaze directed toward Diana, who was deeply engrossed in a large, dusty tome about Earth's nations and ecosystems. The intricate details of terrestrial flora and fauna fascinated her, drawing her deeper into the study of a world so different from their own.

As Diana turned the pages, her expression shifted between awe and curiosity, her fingers tracing the lines of text as if she could absorb the knowledge through touch. Arthur watched her, a smile playing on his lips, captivated not by the book, but by her. Her enthusiasm for new knowledge, her ability to find joy in the simplest of things, reminded him of the myriad reasons he loved her.
