Volume 9, Chapter 30 – Conversation

The development of events had reached a relatively dramatic point.

Of course…

Although Xingyu Muxi’s attention was momentarily drawn by Samael’s words, Xingyu Muxi was still a fairly rational person. After the initial jealousy, she quickly shook off that trace of emotion.

Not only that… after noticing the “inconceivable” content hidden within Samael’s words, Xingyu Muxi gradually came to understand Samael’s identity.

Similar to the old grandpa type of cheat often seen in novels from her world.

Although Xingyu Muxi did not really read those kinds of novels… she at least had some basic understanding of the related settings.

Even though comparing things from novels to events happening in reality felt somewhat fantastical… the facts were indeed just like that.

And Samael… without a doubt was Tianyin’s cheat…

“So that means… you actually knew Xiaoyin a long time ago?”

Everything had been explained very clearly.

Samael and Tianyin were indeed familiar with each other, and this was something Xingyu Muxi had not known.

Although this kind of thing felt a bit subtle, it seemed to be the truth.

After all… Tianyin’s Blood Knight abilities could not have been innate. When Xingyu Muxi first met Tianyin, Tianyin was still a little idiot who knew nothing and could do nothing.

So… without any doubt, Tianyin must have met Samael after meeting her. This also perfectly explained why, after Xingyu Muxi found Tianyin, Tianyin’s combat strength had increased so noticeably.

Then… everything made sense.

Tianyin’s power was given by Samael. Their identical class and almost completely similar fighting styles were proof of this.

And if the earlier deductions were correct… then it was also understandable that Samael would know her and recognize her…

But—

“Since you’re residing within Xiaoyin’s body, why do you have a new body of your own?”

Yes.

This was the new question that arose for Xingyu Muxi after she sorted out the possible relationship between Samael and Tianyin.

Xiaoyin’s power was given by Samael, and Samael was also residing within Xiaoyin’s body.

That was the truth Samael had explained earlier. But if that was the case, then how did Samael, who should have been residing inside Tianyin’s body, appear before her now?

“This question?”

Samael had actually anticipated Xingyu Muxi’s inquiry.

After all, the doubts exposed in her words were quite obvious. If Xingyu Muxi did not ask about it, Samael would think that her previous words had not convinced her.

And if Xingyu Muxi believed what she had said earlier, then this question was inevitable.

Just as Samael expected, Xingyu Muxi did indeed ask that.

“My body was actually given to me by Xiaoyin…”

“What? Xiaoyin gave you a body? How is that possible… how could she have that kind of ability?”

Xingyu Muxi was puzzled by Samael’s explanation.

“I know Xiaoyin. She definitely doesn’t have the ability to create a body for someone… and in terms of class, you should count as Xiaoyin’s Master, right? Since all of Xiaoyin’s power comes from you, then you…”

“Not so…”

Samael interrupted Xingyu Muxi.

With a trace of loneliness in her eyes, this nominal Master of Tianyin slowly shook her head.

“Xiaoyin’s power was something she originally possessed… and Xiaoyin’s identity, do you really think she’s just an ordinary little girl?”

“What do you mean?!”

“The meaning is already very clear. Yes… we were all 【deceived】 by her. The Xiaoyin we knew was indeed Xiaoyin, but at that time, she was not the true, complete her.”

“…”

Looking at the silent Xingyu Muxi, Samael continued with her understanding.

“Her purity was real, her innocence was real, the way she attracted everyone’s attention was real, and the carefree appearance she showed was real. But in reality… she was incomplete.”

“Hard to believe, right? Indeed, when I learned this truth, I couldn’t accept it either.”

“But… the more I understood Xiaoyin, the more doubts appeared around her. In the past, I could have noticed it much earlier, but because of my trust in Xiaoyin, I ignored those doubts… so after learning the truth, I finally understood what kind of opportunities I had overlooked before…”

Samael’s words were actually very hard for Xingyu Muxi, who did not understand the truth, to comprehend.

But for some reason, Xingyu Muxi subconsciously believed that Samael was right.

It was rather funny. Even though she did not know whether what Samael said was true or false, Xingyu Muxi instinctively believed that Samael was telling the truth.

For a “smart person,” this kind of baseless trust should not have existed…

“Xiaoyin… what exactly happened to her?”

Xingyu Muxi had been away from Dawn for quite a long time.

Before she left, she still remembered Tianyin seeming perfectly normal at that time. But after she was gone, did something bad happen to Tianyin back in Dawn?

“Xiaoyin has become her original self.”

Samael said something that Xingyu Muxi found very hard to understand.

“Her original self?”

“Yes. The Xiaoyin we met before was not complete. That Xiaoyin had no past, like a blank sheet of paper, even the memories in her mind were false.”

“You should know… while you were away, Dawn encountered an invasion by the Abyssal Lord…”

Just as Samael was about to continue, Xingyu Muxi’s puzzled voice interrupted her.

“Abyss invasion? What happened? How come I don’t know about this?”

“You didn’t know about the Abyss invasion?”

That was truly unexpected.

However, Samael did not think too deeply about it. Compared to the anger filling Xingyu Muxi’s heart, Samael simply thought it was due to poor information flow in the Nature Plane.

“During the battle with the Abyssal Lord, something abnormal happened to Xiaoyin… and what happened afterward, even I’m not very clear about… I only know that the Abyssal Lord seemed to be repelled by Xiaoyin, and I, who was residing within Xiaoyin’s body, was released by her and then given this new body…”

Samael was not completely certain about what exactly happened, but her guesses were fairly close.

Of course… regarding what state Tianyin was currently in, Goddess Vynert had already told her earlier.
