“Using whatever means to achieve your goal is fine. However, don't lose sight of what is important, Yuna D. Kaito.”
In the following episode, Momo calls Kaito's extensive use of time magic insane and asks whether he will stop. That sharper objection exposes how little this earlier, self-addressed warning has specified. Remembering what matters is not much of a limit after whatever means achieve the goal have already been allowed. Kaito later points to Momo's own interest in seeing taboo magic activated, and she admits that it is part of her reason for remaining. The admission does not make every warning she gives him false. It does make her position less comfortably detached than the earlier advice can sound. She shares an interest in the result while trying to warn against losing something in its pursuit. The line never identifies a means she would refuse or an interest that must prevail. Its moral seriousness remains a tone before it becomes a usable objection.
