Kaluoer stood in the dimension space shimmering with silver light.
She waited calmly.
There were no extra emotional ripples in her heart.
The game, or rather, the mission, was about to begin.
For many years, Kaluoer had gradually transformed from a girl into a woman and eventually became a true mother.
But she never forgot... a certain identity of hers, another identity.
The assassin.
The most pure, the one who takes away others’ lives, was a past and present that she could never escape from.
Kaluoer used to despise that kind of life, hating herself as an assassin. Evie understood her sadness and despair the most.
Later, she lost her "heart", to the point where she couldn’t even feel hatred and disgust anymore.
But now, everything has completely changed.
Kaluoer felt that she was no longer just a tool.
Slaying was no longer done for the benefit of some evil entity.
More so for the sake of Babel Tower’s companions, for the purpose of saving their own Savior, for their loved ones... and for themselves.
Yes, it was for themselves.
If we were to say that after joining Babel Tower, Kaluoer truly learned something.
That is, people are not tools at all.
Live for yourself!
Whether it is being loyal to Babel Tower or giving my body and heart to him, these are the choices I have made, without any regrets.
Just at that moment, a voice emerged in her mind.
A voice that felt extremely familiar!
[Hidden Azure.]
[You’re the chosen one, for the fate of World...]
[No, let’s fight for us.]
The Savior?
Is it Him, returning?
He really came back...
Then, I will not lose.
Because, the Babel Tower will never lose in the presence of the Savior.
Kaluoer took a deep breath.
"I fight for those who need me... and I fight for myself too."
In the next moment, a shimmering silver light appeared before Kaluoer, and the entire dimension started to shift and change.
After a daze, she found herself inside a castle.
"No."
In her calm tone, there was determination.
"Now I never live in pain and despair."
"I have someone I love, someone I need, and also someone who loves me and needs me."
"No matter what, I will never despair again."
Kaluoer gazed at the other person.
"As for you... you are destined to perish along with everything in the tower... never to exist again."
He laughed with envy.
"Hahaha, how arrogant! Let the game begin then! Hidden Azure, the losing side will lose everything. Let us compete for that vital first score, under the witness of destiny!"
Summoned an evil entity.
This is the name of the first game!
All the spell materials and the almost universal ritual were ready. Now, both sides only needed to perform the summoning.
Kaluoer had no experience with summoning.
To be honest, she basically didn’t know how to do these things.
So, she read a little bit and tentatively summoned the lowest level of strangeness.
She didn’t fail, but instead summoned a palm-sized shadow monster, which had no combat power whatsoever, probably similar in strength to the lowest-level slime.
"Um."
Kaluoer wasn’t disappointed at all, she remained calm.
"Hidden Azure, you don’t even understand summoning, so why did you come to participate in this game? Is it because of the tactic of ‘lose first, win later’?"
Jealousy, on the contrary, made her more alert, and she even felt a bit uneasy, as if she was being outperformed.
Or perhaps, it was simply a miscalculation on the part of the Babel Tower?
He and Kaluoer were completely different from each other.
Jealousy was a powerful sorcerer, well-versed in the art of summoning.
And, he possessed an incredibly powerful spiritual energy, and the innate strength he possessed was also well-suited for summoning.
In the past, at the Mercury Ball, although everyone was often scattered across the land and sea on missions, whenever they gathered for a meeting, they would be summoned by the power of jealousy.
This was all thanks to his own immense strength.
According to the additional rules, each summoning ceremony could not be spaced more than ten minutes apart.
Jealousy felt even more confident that she would definitely win. Kaluoer, every time she performed a summoning, would be reading a book on the spot. She couldn’t possibly learn the steps of a new summoning ceremony on the spot every time within ten minutes.
How could they expect to succeed in the mysterious ritual without practicing for several months or even years?
And so, Jealousy began summoning the next peculiar creature.
That small, shadowy creature was not sent back because Kaluoer didn’t know how to undo the summoning.
"Watch closely, Hidden Azure, this is my power."
From within the Mercury Mask, a spiritual force was unleashed. A gigantic tentacled monster emerged from the magic circle and immediately launched an attack on the nearby Kaluoer!
