Rita collapsed onto the throne.
Her right hand braced against the armrest, tightly covering her right eye.
At this mont, she did not have even the slightest spare energy to use soul fire to revive the beings killed beneath the gaze of the Overseer’s Eye.
She really had nearly failed to hold on.
Not only because the Overseer’s Eye’s aggression had increased dramatically, but also because shortly after the battle began, the five-thousandth prison had been fully transford into a world.
And as the five thousandth world appeared, her right eye underwent a trendous change.
Cube.
Vine.
Acorn.
Fox tail.
Candle fla.
Mountain Isles.
One symbol after another flashed within her eye.
She had given away the sighs of the worlds.
In return, she had obtained the murmurs of Prisoners.
Prisoners did not like speaking to their neighbors.
Part of it was because of language barriers.
Another part was because their neighbors constantly changed.
Yet silence was enough to drive living beings mad.
So so Prisoners, desperate not to lose themselves, chose to speak to themselves.
And those unrelated murmurs had remained inside the prisons as echoes.
"Day 5921."
"Created a skill today. Too bad I couldn’t keep it."
"Lucky day. My opponent in the Prisoner Ga wasn’t one of my own people."
"If I can only speak my hotown language by eting my own kind in a Prisoner Ga, then I’d rather never speak again."
"Rotation number 19,411."
"A Prisoner created a chat group. Only beings imprisoned for more than 5,000 days are qualified to receive the invitation."
"I heard soone created a jailbreak group. I wonder how I can get an invitation."
"Today’s ga reward was one wish. I asked the Inspector what cri I committed. The Inspector didn’t answer. Just like everyone said, it never answers our questions."
"If all the Inspectors in the Inspector Gas are the sa being, then technically speaking, doesn’t that an it is also a Prisoner?"
At that mont, the authority Rita had pried from the exile zone had already exceeded half.
Through her right eye, she saw all the rewards this exile zone had collected and stored over the course of this epoch.
Equipnt and items created by Prisoners.
Skills awakened by Prisoners in despair and rage.
Formulas and blueprints invented by Prisoners.
As long as Rita wished it, she could freely mobilize those resources.
After an unknown amount of ti, she finally suppressed the countless murmurs.
Her right eye had already ford the outline of a clock according to her will.
Rita waved her hand and revived the beings who had died under the Overseer’s Eye.
Then she allowed the prison gas to continue.
StarseaPrisoner: "What do you think I’ll obtain once I gain full authority?"
Ash Inspector: [Unclear.]
[No one has ever obtained it before.]
StarseaPrisoner: "Really?"
"Then it looks like a surprise is waiting for us."
Ash Inspector: [Are you still going to continue?]
[When the Overseer’s Eye opens for the third ti, the purge will begin.]
StarseaPrisoner: "We have no way back."
Ash Inspector: [Does this ’we’ include ?]
StarseaPrisoner: "Of course."
"Ash Prisoner."
Ash Inspector: [You are the second being to call that.]
StarseaPrisoner: "Who was the first?"
Ash Inspector: [The legendary Prisoner who has nothing to do with you.]
Rita could not help laughing.
Sotis, Ash Inspector had the sa dry humor as B80.
But not long after entering the next prison, she kept feeling as though she had forgotten sothing.
After sneezing several tis in a row, she finally rembered.
Touching the back of her chilly neck, she sighed.
"Looks like quite a few people are angry at ."
While using Cut the Moonlight on the prison key in front of her, Rita sent Nivalis a voice ssage.
"Great King Nivalis, are you busy right now?"
The voice that ca back was ice-cold.
"Busy. What is it?"
Rita knew it imdiately.
This ti, she had truly stepped on Nivalis’s reverse scale.
While continuing to reshape the world with World Sigh, she slacked off and opened the group chat.
She scrolled upward for several minutes and still could not finish reading all the harsh comnts about herself.
After thinking for a mont, she used Adjudicator privileges to clear all the negative comnts about her with one click.
Then, very carefully, she issued a notification.
[Adjudicator Chat Group: Due to a thrilling and perilous battle, an unknown program error occurred. So ssages have been lost.]
The group, which had just been flooding with ssages, instantly went silent.
The atmosphere beca even more awkward.
Rita suspected she must have been exhausted.
Otherwise, how could extre guilt have driven her to commit such a stupid operation?
[Rita (Starsea)]: How is everyone enjoying the ga?
Still complete silence.
Rita ran through three more prisons in a row.
Not a single person spoke in the group.
Even the gentle Smoke Tune and the ever-considerate Cinders said nothing.
StarseaPrisoner: "What should I do?"
"Everyone is angry."
"No one is talking to ."
Ash Inspector: [I heard them say you are Starsea’s emperor.]
[Is no one afraid of you?]
StarseaPrisoner: "...My ruling philosophy is to win people over with virtue."
Ash Inspector: [Oh.]
Rita calculated her soul fire reserves.
Then she created another pop-up.
[Easter Egg Mission: Chat with Adjudicator in the group chat to unlock one additional skill slot.]
[Deceitful Bloom]: Adjudicator is truly impressive. It seems I was unnecessary.
[Lightchaser]: Adjudicator is truly impressive. It seems I was unnecessary.
[Cinders]: Adjudicator is truly impressive. It seems I was unnecessary.
[Mistblade (Starsea)]: Does Adjudicator think we are too weak?
[Maple Syrup (Starsea)]: Adjudicator is so considerate. I am deeply moved. If I cry, you won’t think I am too fragile, will you?
[Captain (Starsea)]: I admit it. I feel avenged.
[Frenzied Shark (Starsea)]: Adjudicator, Hateful Thorn is crying nonstop.
[Fat Goose]: Cast aside after being used...
[Motorcycle]: I will rember this forever...
[JE (Starsea)]: A legendary life needs a magnificent full stop. That line ruined .
[Foolishness]: Being locked up with nothing to do and receiving rewards just for chatting with Adjudicator. Who wouldn’t envy a war like this?
[Lightchaser]: Exactly. A legendary battle. I have decided to include this experience in my future biography.
[Cinders]: Oh? Then what will you call this Chapter?
[Lightchaser]: Adjudicator’s Spoiling.
[Deceitful Bloom]: For you two minors, yes, it is spoiling. For elders like us, it is different. Adjudicator has already learned how to support the elderly in advance.
[Cicada (Starsea)]: Now that you put it that way, I really am starting to feel touched.
[Mistblade (Starsea)]: So that is how it is. Thank you, Adjudicator. ^_^
Quiet Mountain Rita rarely stayed silent in the chat.
Mainly because she was afraid soone might mistake her for Rita and attack her.
Rita silently closed the group chat.
She decided it would be better to numb herself with work.
