This took Vivian by surprise: "What are you thinking?"

"When can I finally draw your Soul Card, Vivian?" Shen Sui turned to look at Vivian, they were so close that they could feel each other's breath.

Vivian gazed deeply at Shen Sui, after a long pause, she smiled sweetly and said, "You can already obtain it, can't you?"

Shen Sui was taken aback, then immediately understood Vivian's meaning.

Oh right, I completely forgot that it's possible this way.

Shen Sui thought to himself.

In the next moment, Vivian noticed a slight change in Shen Sui's aura beside her.

Vivian laughed helplessly, "Are you really that eager?"

At this moment, Shen Sui had already shifted his consciousness to the Dawn Continent.

Alice was diligently studying the art of war.

Even throwing the match as an actor requires skill; if your acting isn't convincing enough, it's easy to be found out.

What Alice was studying was precisely the art of discreetly throwing the match.

Watching Alice's earnest demeanor, Shen Sui didn't know what to say.

I never saw you so dedicated in your magic studies.

Indeed, it's only when learning to trick others that you seem so serious?

"Claude? You seem much livelier today." Shen Sui did not deliberately hide his presence, so Alice sensed Shen Sui's gaze.

The girl immediately dropped her book with delight, "Have you healed up some?"

"Pretty much recovered." Shen Sui looked at Alice before him, feeling a sense of awe.

Unknowingly, Alice had grown so beautiful, although a childlike innocence still lingered on her face, she had become much more mature overall.

But Alice's true measure of growth wasn't her age, but her responsibilities.

Today, Alice is both the Witch commanding the Twilight Legion and the Pope controlling the Thunder Church; she is both the Dawn Savior of the Giant Race and the Pirate Queen of the seas; she is both the Savior of the Spiritual World and the Grand Overlord of the Dream World...

She is the Mage of Dawn and the Chosen One of Daylight;

She is the Witch of Twilight and the Beloved of Star Night...

From ancient times to present, perhaps no one's identity is as complex as Alice's.

Although Alice never seemed weary from growing, the various matters brought by her many roles wouldn't just vanish due to her optimism.

Alice's appearance, due to the Four Source Powers, would remain unchanged forever, but her growth would never stop.

Shen Sui watched Alice, overwhelmed with a feeling akin to a father seeing his daughter grow up.

Alice had no knowledge of Shen Sui's thoughts. Seeing him return, she eagerly sought advice from Shen Sui on trickery.

"Huh? When a frontline cleric cuts off my connection, should I issue commands via airdrop orders?" Alice's eyes lit up, "That's a great idea! This way, they can't find excuses to ignore my orders."

"Speaking of which, since Harms invited the Daylight Church, why don't you contact the Daylight Church?" Shen Sui asked.

"Daylight Church... oh!"

Alice slapped her forehead hard: "I totally forgot about that!"

With Shen Sui's reminder, Alice remembered that the real Twilight Council was hidden within the Daylight Church, and Laudon even tried to persuade her to run for Daylight Saintess at the time.

This is not to blame Alice's memory, for after leaving the Thousand-Year Mine and bidding farewell to Laudon, she had rushed to the White Mountain Ridge, the home of the Giant Race. After initially mastering the Dawn Power, she hastened to sea for Dragon Island, resulting in her tales of seafaring, then Dragon Island, then the Dragon Princess's world. Alice had no time for rest, continuously traveling to other places, truly forgetting about Laudon's matters.

Of course, Alice's connections in the Daylight Church weren't limited to Laudon; she often chatted with Oshana.

"I always felt like I was forgetting something when chatting with Oshana," Alice murmured, tapping her forehead.

Once she thought of it, she acted on it.

Alice had overwhelming action power.

Since communicating with Laudon via Magic Letter was relatively slow, Alice directly contacted Oshana at the Daylight Church using Dragon Scale.

Alice did not hide anything from Oshana.

Oshana was dumbfounded upon hearing of Alice's wild plan.

"So, you're asking me to summon the Lady of Daylight to kill her together?" Oshana exclaimed in disbelief.

Alice understood Oshana's devoutness towards Daylight and was about to explain, but Oshana spoke first:

"I don't have the ability to summon the Lady of Daylight yet, but Lady Aivia seems to be planning to go to the War God Temple herself."

Remarkable, you're even more decisive than Baris in selling out the Lady of Daylight.

Seeing Oshana's reaction, Shen Sui exclaimed silently.

"There's no need to go that far." Alice was very moved by Oshana's support but didn't want Oshana to be torn between friendship and faith, so she said.

Alice meant that Oshana shouldn't follow when the time comes, as she wouldn't be there herself.

Alice talked to Oshana about Laudon.

"Huh? The Twilight Council is actually infiltrated into the Daylight Church?" Oshana exclaimed in surprise, "Is that okay to say?"

"I trust you, Oshana." Alice said, "You're the only one who can help me now, Oshana."

"Alright, I'll contact Knight Laudon in your name." Oshana replied.

"Should I send you some token? Otherwise, Laudon might not believe you," Alice suggested.

Oshana proudly replied, "The friendship of the Price Clan is the best token."

While the two girls chatted, Shen Sui opened the interface before him, not forgetting the purpose of this visit.

Sure enough, when Shen Sui used a command to focus the view on Vivian, he saw the words he'd long anticipated appearing in the dialogue box:

[Ding! You have acquired Soul Card Follower: Twilight Saintess, Vivian]

[Ding! Your Soul Card has acquired a new form: Candlelight Illusion, An Wei]
