Only Ten Hours

A few minutes later, Anna looked at everyone and asked, "So, who wants to participate and use this technique to merge and become one person? Since only five people can merge at a time, not all of us can do it."

"I think we should let Lily, Rose, Julie, Ava, and Leah do it," Grace suggested, her expression serious. "And since our comprehension of the technique is still low, we should avoid adding people from other races for now."

"That's a good point," Anna agreed, nodding in understanding. "Until we increase our mastery of the technique, we should be cautious about letting Mireya and the others join the process."

"We had the same thought," Emma chimed in with a smile. "We don't know what kind of effect this technique might have if someone from another race participates in the merging process."

"Exactly. It's safer for everyone if we refrain from joining in, at least until our mastery of the technique improves," Mireya added, nodding with a calm smile.
