Humans are in chaos, despicable outsiders.

“Even though I couldn’t understand what Dr. Mei was saying in high school, I still forced myself to listen and would ask him questions like, ‘Yes, yes, yes, yes.’”

"During team building activities, my favorite thing to do is find a chair and table, make a bowl of hot noodles, cross my legs, and enjoy it to the fullest..."

"Stop! Miss Imotek, please don't say anymore... I believe what you're saying..."

"You must be the Kaslana descendant who met the Lord in the depths of the Quantum Sea, right?"

To preserve the Lord's final dignity and reputation, Gray Serpent decisively seized the opportunity to shut the girl up, preventing her from revealing more of the Lord's dark history in public in front of the other children.

"Oh my, it seems you know quite a bit!"

Imotek gave an amusing smile.

"The Lord mentioned to me that a descendant had long-term communication with him in the Sea of ​​Quanta... However, according to the Lord's description, she..."

"She should be a blonde, blue-eyed girl, right?"

Imotek picked up where the man left off.

"That was its appearance before awakening. After all—it's not surprising that the descendants of the Kaslana family can undergo a second-stage transformation, right? Even the ancestor could artificially disintegrate—"

"Hmm...that makes sense—the awakening of a Stigmata does indeed cause certain changes."

"Since you are the successor... then the power of the World Serpent will now aid you... Miss Successor, however, we still need to confirm one thing, or rather, we hope you will do one thing—that you can awaken the true form of that sacred artifact, just like the Lord..."

Gray Snake nodded, tentatively acknowledging the identity of the girl in front of him.

"Wait a minute, what did that noodle-addicted old man say to you???"

Imotek sensed something amiss in Gray Serpent's words—

"The Lord said that we can come to you for help with any problems we encounter... It seems that the Lord highly values ​​your abilities."

"I just skipped work from my 30th birthday party—!!!"

Chapter 203 Not All Paintings Are Called Little Sirin's Paintings

After cursing his ancestors in his mind several times, Imotek reluctantly accepted Gray Serpent's invitation.

"So...where is the Heavenly Fire Judgment?"

Imotek glared angrily at the gray snake in front of him—the man felt as if part of the oil in his prosthetic body had completely frozen, and his joints made a creaking sound when they moved.

"You don't need to take your anger out on me... The sacred object is currently stored in the basement of Shencheng Medicine and is being moved... You will see it soon."

"Oh?...Then what happened to its previous owner, Siegfried Kaslana?"

“We have placed him in a suitable location, and his condition is currently stable—does Your Excellency have any special arrangements for him?”

"I'll let him go once his stigmata are fully awakened... Consider this a promise to someone—"

"Is it that Herrscher from the Kaslana family?"

"Yes."

"Your Excellency, forgive my bluntness, but that Herrscher..."

“She is certainly trustworthy... Grey Serpent, we have watched her grow step by step, all of you from Destiny, that Awakened Mr. Su, and your Lord—Kevin Kaslana, and me.”

"Her life trajectory was rewritten by all of us at a certain moment. We give her boundless courage and blessings, and even that ancestor from 50,000 years ago is no exception."

"She is the chosen one, the only one; she is the first to be blessed, and she is the last to be chosen—"

"There's no need to doubt her, no need to question her..."

.........

"I understand. So, what was the plan you mentioned earlier that you hoped we could assist with?"

After remaining silent for a long time, the gray snake finally made a compromise.

"...Dr. Mei's plan to preserve the ancestral marks is no longer important from this moment on, Gray Serpent—"

“We have found a better and more perfect solution—and all the prerequisites have been laid.”

"This civilization, this race called humanity—will become the immortal leaf, the evergreen branch of that golden tree."

"The grand blueprint has been drawn up, and we have placed all the pieces and finalized all the foundational points—"

"Grey Serpent—your creator's grand ambition will be truly fulfilled at some point in the future—the human race, this civilization, will ascend to godhood."

...

"So... what do you need us to do?"

Imotek's voice seemed to possess a strange, captivating quality, drawing the man into a reverie of the grand ambitions she spoke of—

"Continue to advance the experiments of the Stigmata Project—but let it fail, let it fail utterly right here in this city, Sky City..."

"After all... some of your companions seem to have gone so far as to be either arrogant or completely out of their minds..."

"Jackal?"

The man's words were tinged with doubt but almost certainty.

"Ah, jackal—"

The girl's tone was indifferent yet certain.

"Hopefully this failure will bring her to her senses—as for the plan...."

"Just do as that scientist plans. Spread the word that the Second Herrscher is currently residing in Sky City—Grey Serpent."

"It's time for Ms. Kiana Kaslana to truly step onto the stage of the new world as a hero—"

"As for that grand plan... Grey Serpent, go ask Su and the ancestors—they will explain it to you."

"....I see."

......

"Mr. Gray Snake..."

"Lord Imotek, is there anything else?"

"Are you ready for a world transformation?"

In the small bar, a girl uttered the same words that Bishop Otto Apocalypse had proclaimed to all of Schicksal—

"Heh... We'll see, Your Excellency."

.....

"Hmm, it seems you're recovering well... Now, can you tell me what exactly happened in that house?"

After Imotek and Gray Serpent finished their brief conversation, the group who had gone upstairs to fix their makeup came down one after another; once everyone was seated, Gray Serpent asked a question.

"Hmm...it's Sirin."

In an instant, all eyes in the room were drawn to the doll-like girl.

"Ahem, not this Sirin, but the bigger one, the cuter one... hiss—"

Seeing all eyes suddenly turn to their master, Benares pulled Sirin into his arms and then gasped as he continued to explain which Sirin it was.

The little doll angrily bit the dragon girl's arm, seemingly because it had bitten a sensitive spot.

"Uh... I didn't mean your Queen isn't cute..."

Bella broke out in a cold sweat as she looked at Sirin, who was biting her hand tightly.

"Go on... What happened to that cute little Celine?"

Imotek gave him an amused look.

"Hiss... We were thinking of staying here for a while, so we decided to renovate our place..."

"so what?"

The gray snake seemed somewhat confused.

"Little Sirin offered to help decorate the room... and then... we agreed."

Is there any necessary connection between the two?

Gray Snake became even more confused, and not understanding the power of a certain genius painting girl, Mr. Gray Snake raised his questions.

"Uh...you probably haven't seen Sirin's paintings?"

"Hmm... if you're mentally prepared, take another look at this painting."

Benares carefully took out a scroll, but the latter, oblivious to the situation, simply opened the sealed painting.

Imotek even noticed that the strip of cloth binding the garden appeared to be the Shroud of Relic stolen from a museum a few weeks earlier...

Clang—

Mr. Gray Snake, who hadn't taken the painting seriously at all, soon paid the price. The moment he glanced at the painting, the indescribable things the girl had drawn on it cleared, or rather, short-circuited, his thought process and reason...

"???? Is it really that outrageous?"

Raven's lips twitched as he watched the painting slam down on the table. Unconvinced, he reached for the painting and, before anyone could stop him, slammed his face down on the table as well.

"...It can only be said that some people don't believe in evil spirits, and they are also very brave."

Imotek watched the World Serpent duo slam their faces on the table, their consciences pounding, and twitched his lips. He carefully pulled the scroll from the unconscious Raven, rolled it up again, sealed it completely with the sacred shroud, and returned it to Benares.

"This thing might be usable as a meme weapon... I'm serious."

Imotek nodded in approval at Benares.

Chapter 204 The Witch's Night

Are you all alright?

After being unconscious for half an hour, the two skeptical World Snake duo finally woke up.

"Who am I? Where am I? What was I just doing?"

Compared to the silent Gray Serpent, who seemed lost in thought, Miss Siola asked herself three perplexing questions about life.
