When he heard a familiar line, he was stunned and speechless.
"This will be an immense test, a test incomparable to all your experiences so far." This is the phrase the Emperor used when referring to the final boss of Dark Light 4 in the later stages of the game.
Because the final boss was extremely difficult, this sentence naturally became a meme.
"Maybe... that's it?"
But even so, his answer would not change.
If the final boss is the same as you remember, then just defeat it according to its performance in the game. Just like you usually do, there will be no mistakes.
"As expected..."
Mana unexpectedly accepted Lin Yinxi's ambiguous answer. She muttered something afterwards, but the voice was too soft to be heard.
Just like that, Mana, who had been talking to herself, suddenly turned her head towards Lin Yinxi.
'Well?'
Although it was only for a moment, he seemed to see eyes shining with golden light in her dark eye sockets.
Just like the emperor.
"Are you dazzled...?"
It was indeed only a moment. Just as he suspected he had misjudged her and was about to blink for a closer look, where the girl's eyes should have been, only deep, dark holes remained.
"Now go back, it was a pleasant walk tonight~"
Mana finished speaking in a cheerful voice, and then walked out of the woods with the same unhesitating pace as when she came in. Seeing this, Lin Yinxi could only follow with a slightly uncomfortable feeling.
I always feel like something is being overlooked...
"Is that right?"
In the central hall of the palace, all the lights were turned off.
Sitting on the throne overlooking the entire audience, Casillas smiled strangely. Her golden eyes, bathed in the moonlight, gleamed with a cold light.
"Is that your answer?"
The joyful voice echoed in the empty hall.
This was an answer that she was very satisfied with. To be precise, she was not satisfied with the content of his answer, but with the attitude he showed when answering.
Although the answer itself was vague and seemed uncertain, the gesture when he actually said it was full of confidence. There was no trace of hesitation, as if it was a matter of course.
In this sentence, he is full of confidence in his abilities and in himself after recovering all his memories.
But if that were all, Casillas wouldn't be so happy. There was another reason why she was so happy.
With the help of those eyes, Cassilia watched the whole scene of the rookie knight using the ability confirmation bead from beginning to end.
Then, by comparing his properties before and after contact with the Ability Confirmation Pearl, it was discovered that his magic power had increased incredibly. This was absolutely impossible!
It was obvious that he must be hiding some secret.
"Finally... I finally found what I've always wanted!"
If he grows up, he will surely realize his great dream!
Together we will achieve it and never be overwhelmed by our dreams!
In this extremely illusory world, grow into the only existence that can rival me!
Casilla, sitting on the throne, burst into wild laughter.
055. The Reluctant Liz
The ride back to the castle was much quieter between the two than when they left.
Lin Yinxi didn't say anything because his mind was in a mess. He was thinking about what the last feeling of disharmony was. Mana was humming a song while walking, and he didn't know what made her so excited.
Walking on the road, her empty eye sockets and the back shrouded in darkness overlapped, giving people a sense of illusion.
Lin Yinxi remained silent, and Mana showed no desire to continue the conversation, so naturally, their pace quickened. By the time they came to their senses, they had already returned to the castle without realizing it.
Mana bowed his head accurately in the direction of Lin Yinxi.
"Thank you for cooperating with my stubbornness today, rookie knight."
"You're welcome. I haven't breathed the night air in a while. It feels great."
In fact, thinking about what happened in the forest tonight, he was still a little confused, but he decided not to tell anyone, because he didn't want to suspect a stranger without solid evidence.
"I'm going back now. I'm a little sleepy now."
"Well, I'm going to bed right after I get back."
After a polite conversation, when the two were about to separate and return to their respective rooms, Mana suddenly called him again.
"Also, Mr. Knight might have to stay up late tonight."
"Maybe I need to stay up late? I don't understand...what does this mean-"
"Newcomer!"
Uh--
Hearing the loud voice coming from the back of the corridor, Lin Yinxi's body froze. No need to look, it was Liz.
Liz was beside him in an instant, frost scattering all over the ground.
Then she clung to Lin Yinxi's right arm and began to meow cutely at Mana. It didn't look threatening at all, more like a cat struggling and roaring.
"Hello, Liz Knight. Good evening."
But no matter what, Mana still greeted everyone with a smile as usual. She could tell everyone's mood from their tone, so she was not unaware of Liz's expression at the moment.
"...Where have you two been so late?"
Liz's voice was filled with alarm.
"I went for a walk with the new knight."
"A walk? Is that really all there is?"
"Of course. Knight Commander Liz has been following from a distance, so she saw everything, right?"
Mana's words made Lin Yinxi turn his head, and Liz opened her eyes wide, looking surprised.
"...You saw everything? Liz?"
"Yes, from the time you left the castle until now."
"why did not you tell me?"
"Captain Knight Liz must be trying to follow us secretly to see what will happen between us."
"..."
Liz grinned and muttered, "How on earth did we get discovered?" However, Mana did not answer. She just threw that sentence between the two of them, left a "Good night then" and hurried away.
Only a stiff man and woman remained in the corridor.
"...I thought I hid it well."
This was the first sentence Liz uttered after standing there blankly for a while.
"Is this your first time following me?"
He wasn't angry at Liz for following him, he just felt overwhelmed. He didn't want an apology, and Liz seemed to know that.
And it was hard for him to get angry. He knew that these actions were all due to Liz's love for him. What could he do? As long as it didn't cross the line, he would just treat it as a spoiled child and move on.
"Then why are you following me!?"
Of course, he still had to scare her a little, so he asked as if deliberately interrogating her.
"I can't help it. I couldn't help it. I saw you walking out of the castle with her. How could I ignore it?"
Liz answered confidently, and Lin Yinxi, who was speechless, relaxed a little.
"It's just a normal walk, you should know that, so what's there to track?"
"What do you think a man and a woman could do when they go out alone late at night? And I'm just going to let them do whatever they want? This is something any normal person would overthink, right?!"
"You're still talking about normal people? It seems like I should be saying this. Liz, what on earth do you usually think about? Is this the only thing in your mind?"
Although women's clothing is extremely revealing due to the influence of the mod, this is not a world like the 18+ adult world where the concept of chastity is shattered.
If you walk around the street, you can easily see women walking around wearing only a shirt and underwear. When people see women wearing such clothes on the street, they just smile indifferently.
These are all the effects of the mod, which means that it will definitely not make all women in the world full of pornographic desires.
It’s just that Liz herself has a lot of strange ideas.
"Wouldn't that be the case?"
"of course not."
"Prove it."
"Ok?"
Before he could do anything, Liz grabbed his wrist and pulled him outside.
So, under the pretext of a late-night stroll, the two of them wandered around the city together until the sun rose in the early morning.
Judging from the unwilling expression on Liz's face when she returned to the castle, this was not her original intention.
The day after the noisy night march, the girl quietly bid farewell to the Knights of the Silver Dawn.
Alice and Erica said she could stay longer, but since there was no reason to stay any longer, Mana silently declined.
Since His Majesty's goal has been achieved, she should return immediately.
The girl left the Knights' Order wrapped in a piece of cloth, just as she had when she came in. However, during her stay in the castle, the cloth had been washed thoroughly, so it looked much better than before.
The girl walked into a deep mountain and took off the cloth wrapped around her body, leaving her naked.
After applying magic to the cloth that was taken off, the cloth floated up and began to wrap around the body, and soon turned into the leather jacket that was originally worn.
A top that clings to the body, revealing a thin figure; a hooded cape that hides the face; and shorts that are only a finger's length.
The magic tool for changing clothes with one click was hung around the neck again.
Just like last time, the girl listened to the sounds around her for a while, and after confirming that there was no one around, she began to activate the magic weapon around her neck.
A magic circle appeared under the girl's feet. With the appearance of a beam of light, her figure disappeared somewhere, and the magic circle also disappeared immediately after the girl's figure disappeared.
"came back?"
In the blink of an eye, the girl moved to the palace, knelt down in the direction where the sound was heard, placed her palms on the ground, and bowed her head deeply.
The emperor of the empire, Casillas, a person whom he must obey absolutely.
"Did you find the person you were looking for?"
In the empty hall, besides Casilla's voice, another strange voice suddenly came.
056.Interlude
The girl froze at the sound, not daring to move. Cassilia's golden eyes looked down at the motionless girl.
"Indeed, I finally found what I was looking for."
"Hmm? Really? You seem like a nice person since you reacted like that. I'm curious who it is."
"Want to confirm? I promise you won't regret it."
"I'm looking forward to it. So, let me take a look."
Unlike Casillas, this female voice, filled with nobility and mystery, softly snapped her fingers. The girl lying on the ground suddenly raised her head.
At this moment, two eyes as bright as sapphires and with a mysterious ultramarine color suddenly appeared in Mana's eye sockets, which were supposed to be empty.
His eyes shone brightly.
At this moment, her eyes were exactly the same color as the eyes of the owner of the voice next to Cassilia.
