Pulling her attention back from the outside, Vieya looked at the short pink-haired girl and spoke softly:
“Take me to the replica topology chamber of the All-Seeing Eye. Use your authority to open the door—don’t trigger its self-destruction.”
“Sis... have you thought this through? If you do this, even if you fail, the Royal Capital will surely put you on the wanted list.” Hua Shiyu let out a light sigh. To exploit the replica of the All-Seeing Eye here in Deerhorn City, reverse-trace it to the main body in the Royal Capital, and seize its permissions...
From what she knew, the All-Seeing Eye was a divine relic granted to humanity by the gods to resist monsters.
Each replica of the All-Seeing Eye could accurately record everything “nearby.” But the main body stood above all replicas, said to be the very eye of that omniscient, omnipotent god written of in the Divine Canon.
The Divine Canon was a widely circulated scripture, entirely dedicated to the story of that all-seeing, all-knowing god.
Hua Shiyu could not even imagine it—if Vieya succeeded and seized control of the All-Seeing Eye, nearly every secret among humans would fall into her hands. freeweɓnovel.cøm
No one wanted their browsing history exposed to others. Least of all to someone like Vieya—an identity unknown, friend or foe unclear, shrouded in mystery.
“At that point, regardless of Sis’s identity or power, she would definitely be hunted by humanity’s top elites from every profession...”
Her words trailed off, but the meaning was clear—
If you want to become the enemy of all mankind, then go ahead!
It’s fine. Just tossing away one disguise.
Vieya was quite confident. Her level might be low, her stats unimpressive, but she could still draw upon all twelve Authorities.
At worst, she could always cut off a portion of her slime body, mold it into a doll, and toss it out as bait.
That trick was called sacrificing a pawn to protect the carriage!
And how did that saying go?
“If a dragon flies straight at your face, how could you lose?”
Vieya put her hands on her hips, her calm tone brimming with confidence as she looked at Hua Shiyu:
“It’s fine. All you need to do is show your face and open the door. Leave the rest to me.”
Hua Shiyu still hesitated. “...I.”
“Minister Hua, you’re not planning to go back on your word, are you? If so, then I’ll have no choice but to strike at the things you hold dear.” Vieya’s expression turned cold in an instant.
“#”
Hua Shiyu took a deep breath. “Fine. I’ll do as you say. I only hope Sis can keep her promise. Also... please hypnotize me.”
“Oh?” Vieya could not understand this strange request from the short pink-haired girl.
Hua Shiyu said, “If I’m conscious, I’ll never lead you there.”
What a way to cover your nose while fooling your eyes!
Minister Hua would never betray humanity—unless forced beyond her control.
Such damned brilliant wisdom!
Vieya clapped her hands with a laugh.
“Done!”
...
Six o’clock sharp.
Shrill alarms rang throughout the Tribunal. Red warning lights flashed without pause, casting the corridors in bloody hues. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
The unconscious Tribunal knights had been discovered.
Each had a turtle drawn on his face. On the corridor wall, a red marker had scrawled a giant winking smiley face, with a conspicuous caption:
“Stupid Hero, come catch me in the monitoring room~ If you do, I’ll let you, hey, hey, hey”
It was her senior’s handwriting!
Seeing this, Rania’s heart pounded wildly. The fair hand gripping her giant scythe bulged with veins.
She said nothing. The sunny girl-next-door she had once been had already grown withdrawn under blow after blow.
But a true Hero would never be crushed by cruel reality!
Rania recalled [N O V E L I G H T] what her Master had once told her. Within a few breaths, she steadied her mood and was the first to leave the scene, heading straight for the monitoring room.
“Let’s follow Hero-sama to the monitoring room as well.”
The squad of knights arriving for the shift change exchanged quick looks, then briskly followed.
Inside the monitoring room, Vieya shut down every camera feed. With Hua Shiyu under self-requested hypnosis, she swaggered her way out.
Six fifteen.
Vieya stood before the vault chamber that housed the replica of the All-Seeing Eye. Hua Shiyu began carrying out her final task.
A bluish glow passed over Hua Shiyu’s body. With a click, the alloy door forged of mysterious metal slowly swung open, revealing the deep, narrow corridor beyond.
“Respected Minister of the Alliance’s Grand Armory, may the brilliance of the All-Seeing God illuminate your path.”
