Free Web NovelChapter 26: The Holy Peeping
Three days later...
In the palace located in the capital, which directly overlooked the beach... Lucy, disguised as Maxi, was wearing the sexy black bikini that Cain had previously chosen for her. She was sitting in a enchanting posture like a mermaid upon one of the sea rocks in the middle of the ocean, letting the water waves caress her body.
Honestly... Cain had been suffering intensely during the past two days, and not for any dangerous or life-threatening reason... but rather because now, after Lucy became stronger than him and reached the Truth Realm, he could not see past her disguise through his ordinary means. Ever since he first realized this—that he could not sneak a peek and enjoy watching Lucy’s true form in the black bikini he preferred and adored—he almost spat blood from sheer exasperation!
Therefore... as a man of pride who would not accept such insult and deprivation...
Cain stayed up for two consecutive days without sleep to forge and innovate a special visual technique through which he could see past the disguise of any entity of the Truth Realm! Although this was borderline impossible by the laws of the world... after exerting his absolute best for two days... finally... finally, he could sneak a peek now as much as he wanted!
Cain would not have been able to achieve this feat if not for the System as well... which supported him and sent him on two consecutive sign-in missions. One of them was at the deepest point of this sea, which Cain reached with lightning speed using his power. It seemed that during his insane journey downward, he accidentally pierced five sleeping sea giants, and due to his power, he became the guardian deity of a tribe of intelligent crabs afterward... but in the end, he didn’t care about all that chaos, because at that time he went to the exact specified deepest point... and there, he obtained the required reward:
"The Magic Genie..."
It was a mysterious glass bottle carrying a blue magical creature inside... Of course, he wouldn’t come out of an old oil lamp due to copyright and intellectual property laws! The genie emerged from the bottle with all his majesty and dignity, saying to him:
"Haha... human... this servant can grant any wish in existence..."
And when Cain directly asked him to enable him to see through the disguise techniques of the Truth Realm, the genie scratched his head in sheer, foolish confusion and asked in denial: "Is there even a realm by that name in this world?"
Cain returned the genie to the bottle with boredom and sealed it...
Afterward, Cain realized from the System that he needed to complete the other sign-in mission to obtain something that could help him, which was to stand with a bouquet of beautiful flowers right next to Lucy!.. right next to her.
Cain asked the System skeptically if it was trying to implicate him and bring him to ruin... so the System replied with its usual mechanical tone:
{I am sorry to the Host... this System cannot control the nature or the conditions of the missions.}
Cain was highly displeased with whoever was trying to entangle him in this dangerous matter with the yandere...
Therefore, at that time, and for the sake of the prize, he actually brought the bouquet of roses, stood next to Lucy—who was disguised as Maxi—and presented it to her.
Lucy was in a state of absolute shock and freezing at that moment, almost exploding from the intensity of her shyness and inner joy. Cain didn’t notice that shift; rather, his focus was entirely directed toward appearing like a dry, mechanical drone executing a systematic task just to depart quickly.
However, Cain had prepared and secured himself for this matter with a clever trick, saying immediately:
"Madam Maxi... one of the servants working here named Liam... brought these flowers for you... and he wrote to you in a letter that he admires you deeply, but he is embarrassed and afraid to tell you this face-to-face."
Cain pointed his hand toward a man wearing servant’s attire standing far away and watching them. When Lucy directed her sharp eyes toward that servant... he felt immense embarrassment and ran away quickly, vanishing from sight.
In reality, this person was entirely a mere magical clone Cain had crafted with one of his advanced techniques, making him look like a real servant... and so that Lucy wouldn’t investigate the matter and discover that he was the one presenting the roses, he made him distance himself completely from their sight, with Cain canceling the cloning technique in secret afterward, causing the body to dissipate.
Lucy nodded her head in silence, feeling tense and disturbed... and after Cain distanced himself from her by a margin, Lucy incinerated the bouquet of flowers with her flames, highly displeased and angry because the roses weren’t from him...
Thus, Cain completed his mission successfully and obtained the next and complementary item, which was an "Item Upgrade Card." He then brought out the bottle containing the genie and placed the magical card upon it, causing the genie to instantly evolve and become an item of the Royal Level.
The genie emerged, shouting with pride: "Hahaha... I am the most powerful genie in..."
Cain interrupted him coldly: "I know, I know... can you now raise my ability to comprehend the mechanics of techniques to the absolute maximum level?"
And indeed, the genie complied. At that moment, Cain began working with all his power and focus, utilizing the maximum comprehension until the present time... to develop his techniques that transcended the boundaries of the world, which he was now enjoying and reaping the fruits of his arduous effort.
He was sitting on the shore, sneaking a peek at Lucy’s true body behind the disguise just as he desired like a teenage boy, while wearing dark black sunglasses to block his line of sight and the direction of his eyes so she wouldn’t expose him.
Cain sighed with relief and said to himself: "This is truly the life..." ƒгeewebnovёl.com
On the other side of the shore... the child Amelia was sitting nearby, focusing with all her senses on cultivating and developing her center of power anew, based on the foundation of the technique she used to rule with in her past life as an Empress
"The Lone Star Technique." Which was originally just an incomplete technique inspired by the technique of their greatest ancestor in Starry Empire Empire of the Celestial Continent, named the Forbidden Star Technique.
Amelia wished from the depths of her heart that she could have obtained that complete, original technique instead of the primitive Lone Star Technique whose maximum limit stopped at the Prince level alone...
And to reach the Royal Level in her past life, she relied entirely on blind luck and numerous rare elixirs and medical plants for which she risked her life time and time after time to obtain.
She was currently relying on the enlightenment and comprehension of the laws she had obtained a few days ago...
And now, she was relying on this powerful spiritual momentum to reach the stage of "The Gasp," which is the first stage out of five basic stages to reach the level of one star and establish her foundation. Although this current body was highly gifted and a genius, the Sacred Hall of the Star Empire was not present here to support her, therefore the process of her breakthrough and cultivation would be slightly delayed.
When Cain turned and looked at the state of his daughter, who appeared to be in a state of clear and great focus with her eyes closed... he was surprised because she was training in a technique that seemed to be of the Noble Level at least!
Immediately, Cain remembered the legendary technique he had obtained as a reward from the System when he came to the capital days ago:
The Forbidden Star Technique.
It was clear through monitoring the energy pathways around her tiny body that it was a technique designated for the rare star element...
This element is highly complex and difficult to control, so how could a small child of five years old basically do this and absorb star energy consciously? Cain felt through his knowledge that her method closely resembled the Lone Star Technique used by the ruling Imperial family in the Star Empire far away from here.
Cain looked toward her and asked with interest while staring at her: "Amelia... what is the name of the technique you are training in right now?.."
She opened her eyes and smiled, looking at him with feigned innocence: "It’s just the Lone Star Technique... nothing important..."
Cain wondered deeply within himself; his child called a technique of the Noble level and of an immensely difficult element "unimportant"! He thought, saying:
’This is definitely the yandere villainess’s daughter, the terrifying genes are working well.’ fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Amelia asked him cleverly as she noticed his expressions: "Why do you ask?"
Amelia looked at her father Cain, who had been sneaking a peek with his eyes behind the black sunglasses at her mother Lucy since the early morning, and whose mood was relaxed and sky-high from the intensity of pleasure, while she was suffering and struggling in her arduous training...
Cain answered her calmly: "Nothing... I just thought this thing would help you and cut down the time for you..."
And suddenly, without any introductions, an ancient book with a majestic cover radiating a mysterious energy appeared in Cain’s hand out of thin air. Then, he tossed it lightly from his hand in Amelia’s direction for her to catch, and it fell directly between her tiny hands.
When Amelia read the words engraved in pure gold on the cover: [Forbidden Star Technique]... and read the first lines and what the book contained... she looked again in shock to ensure she wasn’t dreaming... then raised her gaze in utter bewilderment toward her father Cain who was sitting relaxedly...
At that exact moment, Amelia blessed, in absolute and deep silence, his holy peeping at her mother! And she thanked her mother Lucy in her depths; because thanks to her mother’s presence and her doing alluring things, her father was able to be in this generous, lavish mood and support her with this legendary treasure she hadn’t even dreamed of!
Cain looked at her and asked with interest: "Do you want me to train you on it and explain its pathways to you?"
Amelia went completely silent, ...
