Chapter 242: Chapter 208 Finally Able to Meet_2

She had always been playing little tricks, deliberately acting cute to please everyone. Although everyone saw through her act, she was just too adorable.

Not to mention, she managed to deceive Ash into becoming her Taunting Companion so smoothly, 99% of it was because she was a white-haired little loli, and only 1% was due to Ash’s stupidity.

Just like men love green tea and women are addicted to jerks, fools love Igula. If victims deep down didn’t know what kind of person they were dealing with, that would definitely be a lie. They knew, but they were just fascinated by the emotional experience that others couldn’t offer, so the victims didn’t want to think too deeply and just wished the dream would last a little longer.

But Liss’s actions now seemed a bit like ‘breaking character’. Not only did she not give Ash any face, fighting with full seriousness, but she also seemed to have called him by his name just now… Didn’t she want to continue using Ash as her shield? Even soggy toilet paper has its uses, it was too soon to discard Ash as a Taunting Companion, right?

Unknown whether it was because Liss had beaten Ash, or because she appeared to be very genuine, Igula now actually found her quite endearing.

“The battle is decided!”

“It’s 6:2 now, Ash. Are you aiming for ten straight losses?”

“I’ve let you win six rounds, it’s time to show my real skills…”

“As long as you’re happy.”

…

At 10 pm, Diya, having taken a bath and dressed in her pajamas, laid exhausted on her bed. Unfortunately, her hair was long and had to be dried for a while before she could go to sleep directly.

But it wasn’t really her job to sleep; that was Liss’s job.

If it wasn’t for Liss accidentally knocking her head and fainting last night, Diya would have already attempted Void Realm Exploration here.

Hanna gave them enough freedom, and with Liss covering for her in the real world by sleeping, Diya wasn’t afraid of anyone finding out she was a Two-winged Mage—in the Tower of the Kingdom of Gospel, Diya could still conduct Void Realm Exploration under the noses of the Holy Domain.

Diya sat in front of the mirror brushing her hair and said, “Be good and sleep later, don’t read books, don’t go looking for others. If something happens, take the chance to enter the Void Realm to contact me.”

Liss in the mirror pouted, “I want to play Mage duels with Dad too…”

“He’s so bad at it, you might as well play with Banjee.”

“I like to fight against the weak! Isn’t bullying the weak fun? Banjee looks so strong; I’d definitely lose to him, which isn’t fun.”

“Ugh, you’re so naughty… By the way, Ash still has some points. Why don’t you tempt him into gambling tomorrow and swindle all his points away?”

Suddenly, a familiar and frightening voice came from behind: “Witch, don’t encourage the child to gamble, okay? If you don’t have a good opponent, how about playing a game with me next time?”

Diya turned sharply; there was no one behind her.

But when she turned back, on the bed behind Liss in the mirror, sat that man who was both hated and feared!

Observer!

“Good evening, witches.” The Observer in the mirror, with his hands crossed over his chest, spoke lazily, “Did you have a fun day today?”

“(*^▽^*) Not fun!” Liss said ‘fiercely’, “Don’t do this again tomorrow! Otherwise, I’ll start hating you!”

The Observer feigned anger, “Little witch, how dare you speak so insolently. Tomorrow, I’ll make sure you won’t have any study time and can only play to your heart’s content—”

“Enough, you two.” Diya looked unamused and turned to the Observer, “I’ve completed your Task by engaging in a duel with Ash and defeating him. You wouldn’t deny me a bit of personal time, would you?”

“What I meant by ‘duel’ wasn’t exactly that… But as long as you’ve learned something, I don’t mind.” The Observer spread his hands, “See? I’m actually quite reasonable.”

Reasonable is forcibly entering a young girl’s room late at night without asking, forcing a child to stop studying to play games? If that’s considered reasonable, then the disobedient Ash, who barely listens to her commands, could be considered a father who truly loves her.

Diya muttered to herself, and suddenly recalling the Observer could hear her inner monologue, she changed the subject, “What can I learn from playing games with Ash?”

“Having experienced the Time Witch’s combat style, don’t you think you could apply it to your own combat system?”

“That’s just a game…” Diya began, then stopped halfway, stood up thoughtfully, and mimed a few movements on an empty spot on the floor, her expression gradually turning serious.

Observer leisurely said, “The Mage duel series becoming the most widely spread game in the Kingdom of Gospel and spurring countless people to become Mages is not without reason.”

Diya nodded excitedly, “You’re right, I’ll go try out the Void Realm right now—”

“That’s exactly why I came to find you.”

Diya paused, seeing the Observer sitting on the windowsill, overlooking the bustling city below.

“Have you forgotten? The reason I’ve been playing tricks on you is because I need you to become my companion, to explore the Void Realm together.”

“Did you just say you’ve been playing tricks on me?”

“You heard wrong, I said guiding you.” The Observer’s tone didn’t change an iota, “Since everyone is free tonight, why don’t we officially start our Void Realm Exploration? But you’ll have to wait a bit, we need to get ready.”

Could it be true?

Did he really want to invite me to explore the Void Realm with them?

But isn’t the Void Realm something one can only do alone…

While Diya really wanted to question the veracity of this, the Observer’s actions over the past two days had undoubtedly proved that he was a man of his word—the moment he said to let Liss play around, not even a second could stop her; he made Diya fight Ash in a game and before it was over she couldn’t pull her hands away from the controller.

The Observer had no need to tell a lie that would be exposed in just a moment.

Diya fell silent for a while, “Then what do you need me to do?”

“You don’t need to do anything.”

The Observer’s figure gradually faded away, leaving only his words:

“The sacred Fate binds us together, we’ll soon meet in the Void Realm.”

…

On the other side, after taking a shower, Ash was lying on the bed, engrossed in a book—the name of the book was “Complete Guide to Mage Duel Series.”

While Ash fantasized about how to combo Liss to death with a set of moves tomorrow, his Gospel Book suddenly popped out on its own.

A red exclamation mark appeared at the upper right corner of the ‘Mine’ tab, which would compel anyone with the slightest bit of obsessive compulsion to click on it, revealing three pieces of information.

“‘Aurora’s Mage Manual’ has completed device binding and data transfer! Players can now choose to log in to the game using this device, with resolution upgraded to ultra-HD, and operator portraits now include dynamic CG effects.”

“‘Final Observer’ operator’s soul health has been restored to 100%.”

“‘Death Mad Sword Maiden’ operator’s soul health has been restored to 100%.”

Ash blinked.

What the heck, the game had migrated to the new device “Gospel Book” on its own accord without him knowing, and even added dynamic CGs?

This was no mere progress, it could be called a transformation!

From a money-grabbing mobile game to… a slightly more conscience money-grabbing mobile game.

But compared to the huge transformation of the game, Ash cared more about the last two pieces of information!

Souls fully recovered, meaning they could finally explore the Void Realm tonight!

That is to say…

They could finally meet.
