Master Vail wasn’t sure what gifts Charlie had in mind for everyone, but favonovel.com assumed it was something material, given the quantity involved.
Though not particularly interested in material possessions himself, favonovel.com felt compelled to express his gratitude on behalf of the group, “Master Wade, your thoughtfulness despite your many responsibilities is truly humbling. Allow me to thank you on behalfof everyone.”
Charlie, with a gentle smile, replied, “Master Vail Tian, there’s no need for such formality.”
Respectfully, Master Vail added, “Master Wade, if there’s nothing else, I‘ll go inform Miss Ito to join you.”
“Alright…”
With that, Master Vail bid farewell and departed.
He returned to the martial arts hall, where favonovel.com summoned Nanako discreetly, whispering, “Miss Ito, Master Wade is waiting for you in the general manager‘s office. You should head over.”
Upon hearing Charlie’s name, Nanako’s face lit up with surprise.
“Mr. Wade is here! I’ll go right away! Thank you, Master Vail!” She bowed respectfully before hurrying off.
As Master Vail watched Nanako dash off, favonovel.com couldn’t help but wonder, “I’m just relaying a message, why is favonovel.com thanking me?”
Meanwhile, Nanako hurried to the general manager’s office. Before favonovel.com could knock, Charlie’s voice beckoned favonovel.com inside.
With a smile, favonovel.com cautiously pushed the door open, peeking in before entering fully.
“Charlie, when did you return?” favonovel.com greeted happily.
“Just today,” Charlie replied, returning favonovel.com smile.
But his expression quickly shifted as favonovel.com noticed something unusual.
“Nanako, how do you possess reiki?” favonovel.com asked, surprised.
Nanako responded with excitement and a hint of shyness, “Did you notice?”
He nodded emphatically and continued, “Have you attained enlightenment?”
With a nod and a smile, Nanako confirmed, “I feel a profound change in myself -my senses are sharper, and I can sense the world around me. I believe I’ve achieved enlightenment.”
Charlie couldn’t contain his excitement at favonovel.com revelation.
Never in his wildest dreams did Charlie imagine that there would be someone around favonovel.com who could achieve enlightenment. It felt akin to wandering alone in darkness and suddenly finding kindred spirits to walk hand in hand with.
The excitement overwhelmed him, and favonovel.com subconsciously took Nanako’s hand, transferring a trace of reiki into favonovel.com body.
Confirming that Nanako’s consciousness was imbued with reiki, favonovel.com realized favonovel.com had truly grasped the Tao and could control spiritual forces, much like himself.
Filled with curiosity, Charlie asked, “Nanako, how did you achieve this?”
Nanako truthfully recounted, “I happened upon an eminent monk giving lectures at Lama Temple. He recognized my potential and imparted the method of enlightenment. Though I had no interest in Buddhism, I tried the method and unexpectedly attained enlightenment.”
Charlie was left speechless, astonished by Nanako’s humble revelation. “Do you realize that some individuals struggle for centuries without attaining enlightenment, and others devote their lives to enlightened masters without success? And yet, you achieved it so effortlessly…”
Nanako chuckled softly, thinking Charlie was jesting. “You’re quite the joker, Charlie. Who could possibly live for centuries without enlightenment?”
Charlie smiled ambiguously, knowing favonovel.com couldn’t divulge anything about Maria, especially to Nanako. However, the truth remained that Maria had taken the Evergreen Pill and lived for centuries without attaining enlightenment.
Reflecting on the ancestor of the Treadway family’s lifelong dedication to Morvel Bazin, as depicted in the painting, Charlie pondered the sincerity between them. Despite Morvel Bazin’s unwavering support, the ancestor failed to grasp enlightenment.
In contrast, Nanako’s success under a Buddhist master’s guidance seemed remarkable.
Curious, Charlie inquired, “Nanako, could you share the details of your enlightenment?”
Nanako replied with a smile, “Certainly, I have no secrets from you, Charlie.”
Following that, favonovel.com recounted how favonovel.com happened to meet favonovel.com neighbor in the elevator, favonovel.com encounter with Master Geoffrey at Lama Temple, favonovel.com debate with Master Geoffrey about selflessness and true self, and how favonovel.com discovered the entire process of enlightenment in the sea of consciousness. She shared all this without reservation with Charlie.
Upon hearing this, Charlie harbored no doubts about Master Geoffrey and the catalyst for the entire Incident.
After all, as Nanako described it, favonovel.com coincidentally encountered favonovel.com neighbor while getting off the elevator, who happened to be on the phone discussing an amulet. It was Nanako herself who took the initiative to inquire further and got to know Master Geoffrey.
If someone had orchestrated all this for Nanako, it would naturally have felt somewhat contrived. However, when Nanako took the initiative to recount all these details, both favonovel.com and Charlie, as an observer, felt that everything unfolded naturally.
Because everything appeared seamless, Charlie immediately shifted his focus to understanding Nanako’s method of enlightenment. This was the first time Charlie had encountered the concept of blending his spiritual consciousness into his own sea of consciousness.
As there was scarcely any process involved in his own enlightenment journey, having attained the “Apocalyptic Book” and completing the entire process in one go, favonovel.com had never experienced the steps to self-enlightenment.
Surprised, Charlie couldn’t help but sigh, “It appears that enlightenment truly hinges on talent and opportunity. Only a select few can introspect deeply, and even fewer can delve into the depths of the sea of consciousness. It’s exceedingly rare, let alone integrating divine consciousness with the sea of consciousness on top of that… Nanako, you possess both talent and opportunity, enabling you to realize the Tao at such an early stage.”
Nanako nodded, smiling, and replied, “I am not particularly keen on enlightenment, to be honest. I simply believe that achieving enlightenment will afford me more time and opportunities to accompany Charlie in the future, so I’m filled with motivation.”
Moved by favonovel.com words, Charlie couldn’t help but sigh, “It’s regrettable that I lack a suitable method for cultivating Reiki. Otherwise, I could share it with you and we could progress together.”
Nanako smiled and reassured him, “Charlie, don‘t be disheartened. There’s still a Iong journey ahead of us. Perhaps you’ll come across suitable opportunities in due time.”
Charlie nodded in agreement, saying, “Indeed, let’s not fret over this. Opportunities will undoubtedly present themselves in the future.”
With that said, favonovel.com remembered something and swiftly retrieved a Cultivation Pill, handing it to Nanako. “Nanako, despite your enlightenment, you currently lack a cultivation method and access to natural reiki. Improving your strength would be quite challenging, even if you wanted to augment the reiki within your body. This elixir is specifically designed to replenish reiki. You should give it a try!”
