Chapter 422: Fifty-nine Don’t worry, I am watching you_2
“As long as that thought exists in your mind,” Bai Wei said, “it’s possible for the All Gods to sense it, and once those words are spoken, they’ll be under the Gaze of the All Gods.”
Hewinia was initially stunned, then her pupils slightly narrowed.
She realized Bai Wei was not joking.
…Just having that thought could lead to the All Gods’ awareness, and saying those words would place you under their Gaze.
What kind of truth was this?
Hewinia had never heard of such a thing before.
“Hehe, quite shocking, isn’t it?” Bai Wei said. “Most people in this world are unaware of it, even the Popes of the great Churches. Because it is the most untouchable secret of the All Gods, and now, the only one besides who knows this secret is you. So, not telling you is truly for your own good. I didn’t tell my previous two partners either, I didn’t even bring it up, and the main reason for that is…”
Bai Wei’s extrely serious tone made Hewinia subconsciously hold her breath, “It’s… what?”
“It’s…” Bai Wei answered seriously, “they never asked.”
Hewinia blinked, not understanding Bai Wei’s aning at first.
After she realized what he ant, she was still a bit confused. “Are you… joking with ?”
“Ah.” Bai Wei said sowhat surprised. “You caught on that quickly?”
Hewinia: “…”
“Hey hey, don’t look like that; I wasn’t completely joking.” Bai Wei said with a smile, “That matter is indeed true, and so is the reason I can’t tell you. So far, no one besides myself is able to bear those consequences, and I can only bear them because the All Gods cannot see , but you are different. So, for the mont, stop thinking about it. For most people, knowing this brings no benefit, only the greatest risk.”
Bai Wei had made himself clear, and Hewinia could only nod. After all, Bai Wei hadn’t even bothered to explain before, just glossing over it with a laugh.
At this ti, Hewinia and the butler had left the docks and arrived at the main entrance of the mountainous academy.
Hewinia could see Phinis, as well as the carriage pulled by several unicorns waiting there.
And then, Bai Wei spoke again: “However, one thing the people here didn’t get wrong is that this mountain is indeed the closest place to the Holy Sound Master. I can even feel Their presence now, and the closer we get to the top, the stronger that presence becos.”
Hewinia paused for a mont, subconsciously looking up and once again gazing at the First Academy surrounded by snow and mist.
Perhaps influenced by Bai Wei’s words, Hewinia felt as if a magnificent and suffocating power stood tall above the horizon.
“Will You be discovered by Them?” Hewinia asked.
“Not to that extent, but I also can’t overdo it,” Bai Wei said with a smile. “So, I’m going to slightly weaken our connection, not intervening directly in your body like before.”
“Like at the very beginning?”
“Perhaps even weaker than that, as you are not able to freely use my power now,” Bai Wei shrugged Hewinia’s shoulders. “Since I can’t physically step in to help you fight, you’ll mostly have to rely on yourself for most of the ti.”
Hewinia nodded lightly.
For so reason, Bai Wei’s words stirred a complex feeling within her heart.
She couldn’t understand why; wasn’t it a good thing that Bai Wei could no longer control her body so freely?
Hewinia was perplexed; her mind felt chaotic.
Since awakening on the ship, her body and spirit had mostly recovered, but she still felt like sothing was missing.
There was constant oppression in her heart.
The notebook in her pocket, though weighing less than a pound, felt abnormally heavy, almost too heavy to lift.
And when Bai Wei said that she would have to rely more on herself from now on, that feeling beca even more pronounced.
But Hewinia knew she had to adjust imdiately because the First Academy was even more dangerous than the Third Academy, where a slight carelessness could be deadly.
So Hewinia took a deep breath, letting the biting cold wind that filled her nostrils awaken her senses.
It was at this mont, though, that she heard Bai Wei say, “Look at this.”
She was montarily stunned.
Because she saw Bai Wei controlling her hand, making a gesture.
A raised… thumb.
What did that an?
Before Hewinia could ponder, she suddenly felt a change in her body.
Her vision brightened, the biting cold wind beca refreshing.
Her entire body felt more energetic.
Even that oppressive emotion was quickly alleviated and even beca more active.
It was as if whatever lay ahead was no longer sothing to fear.
What was that?
Hewinia realized it was the effect of that finger.
“This is…”
“Nothing but a trivial trick,” Bai Wei said with a smile. “You feel better, right?”
Hewinia remained silent for a mont, then nodded gently.
“That’s good.”
Bai Wei said, smiling.
“Don’t worry, I’m always watching you.”

“Lord Bishop, here is the work summary for the new week,” the graceful Priest said while handing Rocky a file with a smile. “Would you like to take a look?”
