A chat group where you switch bodies with Alicia at the start?

"My Lord, in Changkong City, we have discovered someone who belongs to the same group as you, one of the Thirteen Heroes."

"—Alicia."

The illusory giant serpent paused at that moment.

It even dramatically blinked its snake eyes.

Meanwhile, Kevin, who was located in the Sea of ​​Quanta, also looked somewhat bewildered.

As if in disbelief, the giant snake asked hesitantly:

"You said, who did you discover?"

"It is the Venerable One, who is one of the Thirteen Heroes of the Fire Chaser, just like you, Alicia."

“I know this may be hard for you to believe, but Raven saw it with her own eyes. Sovereign Alicia appeared in Changkong City and took away the Divine Key, the Seven Thunders of Purification, which Raven was holding.”

The hoarse voice stated the facts, plunging Kevin, who was in the Sea of ​​Quanta, into a long silence.

That's impossible.

She, clearly, did it herself...

The dead cannot be brought back to life; this is an ironclad rule of the world that even Kevin is acutely aware of.

Even the extremely special Alicia could not be an exception.

"Can you hear me, Sue?"

For the first time ever, Kevin took the initiative to call upon his former best friend.

Even though they hadn't spoken a single word to each other for thousands of years, he knew that Su could definitely hear his voice.

"I'm here, Kevin."

"Is what Gray Snake said true? She really did..."

Logically speaking, Kevin shouldn't have suspected Grey Snake.

As a subordinate, Gray Serpent was far more trustworthy than Su, who had betrayed him thousands of years ago.

But this is just too incredible, too unbelievable.

Therefore, Kevin chose to get the answer from his best friend.

In this respect, Su, who possesses the power of the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle and can observe countless worlds within a mustard seed of Mount Sumeru, is utterly credible.

“I’m not sure either, but I did find her reaction in Changkong City, but... it was very brief.”

—It's as if they're deliberately hiding from something.

"..."

The news from Sue undoubtedly confirmed Alicia's existence, but after confirming it, Kevin fell into a long silence.

“I can’t let you out, Kevin.”

Su's words carried a hint of apology.

Logically speaking, her unexpected reappearance should have been welcomed by her old friends, and needless to say, each of them was eagerly anticipating seeing that flawless girl again.

But at this moment, they were no longer just the Thirteen Heroes of the past, but pioneers who carried the expectations of a civilization and all people.

For the sake of the future of this nascent civilization, Sue absolutely could not allow Kevin to go out at this time.

"Ah."

Regardless of right or wrong, good or evil, it is precisely because Kevin understands Sue that he is able to be imprisoned in the deepest part of the quantum sea.

My present existence is by no means good news for the civilization of this generation, but merely a helpless and forced situation.

not to mention...

"...Alicia."

Softly murmuring the name, Kevin slowly clenched his fist.

Just as he had never met them once since arriving in this new generation, he certainly couldn't meet that girl again now.

All because of an utterly absurd emotion that appears in Kevin Kaslana, the strongest fusion warrior.

--Fear.

He dared not let Alicia see him in his current state.

Let's give the people of this era some more time.

Kevin had this idea.

These exchanges did not reach the gray serpent's ears; they remained confined to the bottom of the quantum sea.

The gray snake, which had been waiting for a long time before the enormous snake shadow, saw that there was no response. Although it wasn't impatient, it had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask in its hoarse voice:

"My Lord, how should we deal with the appearance of Lord Alicia?"

All the heroes of the past are the supreme rulers of the World Serpent.

It is also an existence that all members of the World Serpents deeply revere.

The sudden appearance of an unfamiliar lord will inevitably cause divisions within the World Serpent.

This is a matter of great importance, so a decision must be made as soon as possible.

Kevin naturally understood this as well.

After a long silence, he finally spoke:

"If it really is her, as long as things are not beyond repair, let her do whatever she wants."

Chapter Sixty-Nine: As You See, a Girl as Brilliant as Flying Flowers

"Welcome to the magic show by the great magician! Everyone, please keep your eyes wide open and watch carefully!"

A stage set up by one person—no, this could at best be called a street performance using a city venue—with a crowd watching, the protagonist of this magic show was a strangely beautiful girl with a graceful figure, dressed in leather tethers.

One side of her hair was brownish-yellow, the other a deep green. The contrasting colors, like a patchwork, would have been a striking sight even in a pre-civilization era with a high degree of freedom in hair coloring.

This energetic young woman performed all sorts of novel magic tricks for the audience, and her superb visual deception brought the audience a novel experience that left them in awe.

Only after the magic show ended and the crowd dispersed, did the girl tidying up the magic equipment hear her sweet, pure, and cheerful voice:

"Although it's nowhere near the scale of Eden, it was still a fantastic performance! I'm so happy to have seen it!"

When Vervi looked up, she saw a stunningly beautiful girl in a cool summer outfit wearing pink.

The praise brought a slight smile to her lips, and she said naturally, "Of course~ My magic tricks will one day amaze the world and win applause no less than that of the big star Eden."

"This beautiful lady saw it all from the beginning. Could it be that she was captivated by my exquisite magic tricks?"

"Maybe that's how it is? Wow, what's the working principle behind this handkerchief? It can hide such a big thing inside! I'm so curious!"

She naturally moved closer, the pink-clad girl smiling noncommittally, her bright eyes fixed on the handkerchief in her hand. The latter shrugged and politely declined.

"Unfortunately, magicians don't reveal the secrets of their magic tricks~"

"That's true. If we knew the secret, magic would lose its original charm, wouldn't it? That would take away its original fun."

The rejected girl agreed wholeheartedly, and then gazed at the magician with a meaningful look.

Realizing this, Velvi quickened her pace and chuckled a few times:

"Haha, this lady doesn't know much about magic~ You're welcome to come and watch the next magic show."

"That won't do, will it? After all, I don't know where you'll run off to next, Vilvie~"

The girl was clearly smiling, but the words she uttered made the magician instinctively shrink back, chuckling awkwardly:

"Haha, I can't quite hear what you're saying, miss."

As soon as she finished speaking, Vervier sensed something was wrong and was about to run away when she felt a weight on her wrist.

Looking down, I was surprised to see a shiny silver bracelet.

The next moment, she met the eyes of the pink-clad girl, who chuckled and said:

"If you escape, it'll be a huge hassle to find you later."

"Ugh."

Looking at the silver bracelet on her wrist, Velvi sighed.

Yet, I felt no worry whatsoever.

Throughout her life, she has a history of being arrested in various places.

but--

"Hmm~ Thinking about how to escape later?"

Seemingly seeing through the magician's thoughts, the pink-clad girl smiled and nodded. "Indeed, there shouldn't be a prison in this world that can control you, Velvey, right?"
