Shirley's mind froze.
It had been a long time since she had seen or heard about Dewzai.
In fact, she felt regretful since she didn't have a chance to say goodbye after the Candidacy was forcefully terminated. However, they were ultimately from different worlds. She didn't think they would meet or mingle again.
Therefore, she didn't bother to torture herself and look into what happened to her. She knew inheritors were being chased and arrested all over the realms, so she figured Dewzai should either be arrested or have escaped. She knew she was strong and could handle herself, so she wasn't worried or it was better said that they were also scrambling for survival in the initial days, so she had no time to care.
Besides, the resources granted to Dewzai at the end of the Candidacy should also allow her to enter the Empyrean Stage as long as she obtained the manual.
