Chapter 389 Here comes the Expert Voyeurs!
AT A SECLUDED CORNER OF THE UNIVERSE
[[[Inside a dark room, which was only illuminated by a single lamp, two figures could be seen sitting on the same chair. These two figures were not moving from their current position, as if they were just statues. But these two figures were not statues at all, as vigorous life force could be felt from the both them.]]]
[[[This vigorous life force was more prominent from the larger person among the two figures, whose bulky body appeared to be overwhelming even with the limited light. Right now, this larger person was the one sitting on the chair, with the smaller person forced to sit on the former’s lap.]]]
[[[Even if there was just a dim light inside the room, it was easy to feel that the smaller person was miffed by what was happening, as the words that this small person suddenly said managed to show all of its feelings.]]]
[Smaller person]: Sieg, do I really have to sit on your lap? Can’t I just fly behind you?
[Larger Person]: Kuro, if I said that I want you to sit, then you should sit. How hard is it for you to understand that?"
[Smaller person]: Hey! You know that I hate having close skin contact with other people! Since you know that, then you should respect my privacy too!’
[Larger Person]: Kuro, my number one priority was to always follow the Endless Monarch and his will. That means that I will ignore everything, even your preferences, if that will help me follow the Endless Monarch. And unfortunately for you, your interests are clashing with the what I have to do.
[Kuro]: ...
[Sieg]: Now, if you understand what I just said, then you know that you have no choice but to sit still there and do your job.
[Smaller person]: Argh! This is making me angry!
[Larger Person]: ....
[[[ If Asteria were to be here in this place, she will surely shiver, as the voice of the larger person and the smaller person were voices that she was familiar with already.]]]
[[[The smaller person awfully sounded similar to Kuro(the black fairy), while the larger person sounded similar to Sieg(the silver armor guy). Even the way that these two figures talked inside the room were also similar to Kuro and Sieg, which just makes their identity more obvious.]]
[Sieg]: Kuro, you might not be happy with your current sitting position, but you know that this is the optimal position that you must have in order to perform an ’Observation’. By sitting on my lap, you will be able to get the maximum power from me that will fuel your ’Observation’ ability.
[Kuro]: Yes, I can indeed get the most power from you by sitting on your lap. But even if you can give me the fuel for wielding my ’Observation’ ability, I still can’t accept the feeling of your flesh this close to mine!
[Sieg]: Just bear with it, Kuro. As long as you finish ’Observing’ all our targets, you will be allowed to leave my lap. So you should start ’observing’ now, so that you can leave me in a much earlier time...
[Kuro]: Hmph, I really hate this part of the job! Why do I even have to observe a bunch of young, reckless people? I don’t care what happens to them!
[Sieg]: Kuro, these Travelers are still the precious subjects of the Endless Monarch. He’s interested in these Travelers, and they seem to be a perfect fit for his plan. And according to his words, this batch of Travelers were one of the best and rarest batch that had existed....
[Kuro]: ...
[Sieg]: Since it was like that, we have the obligation to observe these Travelers, in order to see if they are worthy of receiving the Endless Monarch’s praise. We have to see if these Travelers are doing the right thing, and if some of them were at the brink of death right now...
[Kuro]: Brink of death? Sieg, these 4 Travelers were all sent to ’safe worlds’! They were sent there not to risk their lives, but to let them rest! How in the world could they be in danger in these safe worlds? Do you think that those people in the safe worlds had a way to harm these Travelers without violating the contract? Did you even think about that, Sieg?
[Sieg]: ...
[Kuro]: Hmph, so you did not think about that.
[Sieg]: Kuro, I don’t need you yapping words like these anymore. You need to start your ’observation’ already.
[Kuro]: ....
[Sieg]: Kuro, you know that we are running on a tight schedule here. We still have a meeting set with someone important later, so we cannot afford to waste time here. Just do what you have to do here, and we can go back doing our personal stuff in peace...
[Kuro]: ...Fine, I shall start my ’Observation’ then. So, who should I ’observe’ first? You know that we have 4 Travelers under our jurisdiction. We can choose to start with any one of them, but I prefer to have a good idea on where to start...
[Sieg]: The Travelers that you can ’observe’ now are Alex, Delia, Ray, and the demon Malthus. You can start observing from any of them. I don’t care which one, as long as you finish this quickly.
[Kuro]: Okay! If you are rushing, then I will ’observe’ Delia first!
[[[After Kuro said these words, she suddenly waved her hands as a massive white screen materialized inside the room. This screen seemed to be similar to the screen of a television, as what appeared to be a video recording was shown on the screen. Sounds could also be heard coming out from the screen, which perfectly complements the video itself.]]]
[[[The video shown in the screen was so vivid and life-like, that anyone who sees it will feel as if they were actually on the video itself. Even someone like Alex will be impressed too, not to mention someone dumb like Asteria.]]]
[Kuro]: ...
[Sieg]: ...
[[[Both Kuro and Sieg did not make any comments about the effects the screen had, as they were only focused on watching the scene depicted by the screen right now.]]]
[Kuro]: So Delia and her companions found themselves on a world of psychic nomads. That’s a pretty weird and nice world to be in.
[Sieg]: And the people in this world are also good in mental and spiritual combat. For Delia and her companions, this world is a good fit for them.
[Kuro]: Heh, it is indeed a good fit for them. After all, Delia is about the reach the Sixth Stage of Power in this world! As long as she manages to find out the purpose of her spear abilities, she will reach the Sixth Stage with ease!
[Sieg]: Yes, I can see that that Delia is getting stronger already. So there’s no need for you to point your finger at the screen. You’re just wasting more of my time.
[Kuro]: Hmph, you just don’t get how happy I am for Delia. She’s a good kid, you know. She’s just a little hard-headed...
[Sieg]: Kuro, use your ’observation’ on the next guy already. I just told you that we can’t waste time.
[Kuro]: Okay! I’ll change the view now, okay?
[[[Kuro then waved her hands again, which changed the video shown on the screen.]]]
[Kuro]: ...
[Sieg]: ...
[[[Just like what happened with Delia earlier, both Kuro and Sieg focused on the video in front of them, although hints of disgust and revulsion could be perfectly seen on their faces. This disgust seemed to be focused on the video they were watching, with the both of them not mincing their words as they started commenting about it.]]]
[Kuro]: No matter where Ray goes, he will always be the typical a**hole.
[Sieg]: What a disgusting person! So his depravity was actually this great! Hmph, if it were not for his status as a Traveler, I could have already killed him! What a shameless bastard!
[Kuro]: A world occupied by peaceful Book Mages should be left untainted on its own. But ever since Ray came in this world, he quickly brought ruin it into ruin, with him using the misery of the people to increase his power. Tsk, he’s about to reach the Sixth Stage too, although he got it through the deaths of many. What a horrible person...
[Sieg]: Kuro, change the scene now. I don’t want to watch this anymore.
[Kuro]: You don’t need to say that, Sieg. I was just about to do that already.
[[[Kuro waved her hands as she changed the video for the third time, replacing the sickening video with that of a new one. This time, the disgust on their bodies disappeared as the video that they saw was way calmer.]]]
[Kuro]: Sieg, why is Malthus not doing anything in this world? Even if it is a safe world, shouldn’t his demonic nature be enough to make him do unspeakable things? I mean, look at him! He’s just hiding inside a cave along with his pupils! He does not even come out of that cave! Argh, he just wasted the opportunity given to him to be stronger!
[Sieg]: Kuro, Malthus does not need to do anything at all at this point. And quite frankly, him not doing anything is better.
[Kuro]: ???
[Sieg]: Kuro, Malthus needs to heal himself in order to restore his power back to its peak. By not doing anything, he can hasten his healing rate, which will allow him to get stronger and stronger everyday. If I were in his shoes, I would have done the same thing too, so don’t just criticize him.
[Kuro]: Hmph, you sound so kind talking about this demon. Are you friends or something?
[Sieg]: Just finish your observation already. We still have to see what Alex is doing now.
[Kuro]: ...Okay, I shall allow you to evade my questions. After all, you will also have no choice but to answer them in the future.
[Sieg]: ...Just show us Alex’s condition already.
[Kuro]: Fine, I’ll show it already. Oh, since Alex’s scene was the last one to be ’observed’, do you want me to increase the quality of the screen output? It will just require 10% increase on my fuel intake...
[Sieg]: Cut the c**p and finish this. I don’t want more of my powers drained anymore.
[Kuro]: ....
[[[Kuro then waved her hands for one last time, showing the events that happened on the Immortal’s World. It showed everything that Alex did, along with his breakthrough to the Sixth Stage and his discovery of ’business transactions and ’safe worlds’. Needless to say, both Kuro and Sieg were surprised with what they saw, as they seemed to have not expected something like this to happen.]]]
[Kuro]: Oi Sieg! This is bad news! Alex has discovered about people making business transactions with the Endless Monarch! Ah f**k! What should we do now? Should we kill him? Or should we inform the others about this?
[Sieg]: Kuro, listen to me. We will not do anything about this. Literally nothing. Just let Alex do what he wants to do.
[Kuro]: But-
[Sieg]: Kuro, Alex discovered the truth by his own, so we are not entitled to punish him for it. He was just too smart for our own good... Do you understand that?
[Kuro]: But-
[Sieg]: Besides, Alex is already a Sixth Stage Being. He is now at the brink of joining the inner circle, so he’s also bound to know the truth in the nearby future. Since it will be like that soon, there’s no need to silence him anymore.
[[[After Sieg said these words, Kiera, who was looking at Alex with killing intent, forcefully suppressed her malicious aura as she gave Sieg a complacent, but also aggrieved look.]]]
[Kuro]: Hmph, since you say it that way, then I shall allow Alex to be let off! But if he dares to do something unexpected again, I will not hesitate to take actions against him!
[Sieg]: Well good luck with that, Kuro. Let’s see if you can do that later.
[Kuro]: Just watch me Sieg. Just watch me.
[Sieg]: Yes, I will watch you later. But for now, we have to go to the meeting already. We’re almost a minute late, so we need to rush at the meeting place right now!
[Kuro]: We’re already late? Why did you just say that now? You could have told that to me earlier!
[Sieg]: Kuro, do you want me to pull out my sword? Becuase I have been itching to use it on you since earlier. Just say the word, and I will unleash its wrath on you...
[Kuro]: ...
