Chapter 115
She would repeatedly eliminate those who deserved it, and even in reality, it wouldn’t be long before they were dealt with by their own hands. The skill "Kexing" (克星, literally "Nemesis") shouldn’t have much impact on Xia'er’s life.
Xia'er closed the reward interface in front of her and opened the system shop.
There was something particularly important that she had to redeem.
Rows of exchange options appeared before her. Compared to the previously empty shop, it was now filled with a bunch of useful and useless items. The classification list that had been of no use before finally came in handy at this moment.
Xia'er clicked to sort by time and selected the most recent simulation, revealing a filtered list.
Ignoring the irrelevant options like clothes and undergarments, her gaze settled on three items, her expression gradually turning puzzled.
【【"A Letter to Myself" (Xia'er)】
】
【Destined Points: 1】
【【943ml of Blood (Xia'er)】
】
【Destined Points: 10】
【【Sadana Emblem】】
【Destined Points: 20】
To avoid being influenced by the "Inciter" potion and causing chaos, wasting her already dwindling mental energy, Xia'er chose to end her own life after clarifying all the information.
She was more concerned about the possibility of doing something outrageous under the potion's influence than about earning more destined points.
However, it seemed that her past self in the simulation had left her a letter and some blood. She wondered what the purpose of that was.
Moreover, Xia'er hadn’t even realized where the blood and letter were stored on her body. Surely, they weren’t sewn inside her… right?
Or maybe she had just swallowed them?
After some thought, it did seem like something the "Inciter" would do.
Her past self in the simulation might have known she wouldn’t have time to check the messages left for her, so they were tucked away in an envelope inside her body.
After a moment of hesitation, Xia'er decided to redeem the envelope.
One destined point wasn’t a significant amount for her current self; even converted to Su pounds, it was only 125. Xia'er could easily afford it.
Plus, with nearly two units of her own blood, it made her think that her past self had left some important information.
With a thought, her destined points balance dropped from 193 to 192.
A silver light flashed, and a clean, beautiful light blue envelope appeared in her hand.
Xia'er opened the envelope and unfolded the letter, revealing the content written in Chinese.
【Year 741 of the Holy Era, too lazy to write more】
【After inciting those cultists, I had nothing else to do】
【Since I was idle, I started experimenting with some interesting things】
【I always thought spiritual summoning was too troublesome; not only do you have to chant to guide the blood array, but you also have to wait for the portal to the other realm to open. If you’re in a fight, there’s no way you’d have time to summon any spiritual beings】
【And powerful spiritual beings might drain your own blood… which is fatal in battle】
【Anyway, there are plenty of materials in the exchange area, so I just started experimenting】
【And I really discovered some interesting things】
【A key step in spiritual summoning is my own blood, but this blood can be the one I drew earlier; it can be sacrificed as long as it’s mine】
【I used "Echo" to draw a few buckets of my blood and then traced back. Even after the blood coagulated into clots, it could still be used for sacrifice】
【I kept some blood clots in my pouch, about 1000g, which is a standard unit. You can check how many points are needed to redeem it】
【Later, I tried sacrificing the same item with those buckets of blood. The first time, I successfully summoned a small monster, and the second time, I used the blood array I recorded, heated my own blood, and drew it myself】
【Guess what?】
【The pre-drawn blood array can also be used—just that each summoned creature corresponds to different offerings and blood arrays. If you want to record them all, it’s a massive project】
【I tried proportionally shrinking the blood array down to fit on a piece of parchment, but unfortunately, the small blood array drawn on the parchment didn’t work at all】
【The rest of the letter contains a list of all the cultists in Brolun City】
【If you see this in the simulation, you don’t need to read the last page】
【—Love,】
【Xia'er (^_^)】
If in the simulation, she didn’t need to read the last page?
Xia'er flipped straight to the last page.
【I did a lot of good deeds. Can I use the "Inciter" next time I load the save? And remember to remind me to use the "Inciter" potion before each simulation. Look, the "Inciter" is so efficient and can think of things others wouldn’t even consider. Why not just drink the "Inciter" potion in reality? That way, I won’t have to keep getting headaches…】
Xia'er only read the first line before putting the letter down, no longer interested in the lengthy pleas that filled the rest of the page.
Was she really inciting herself?
Sometimes, Xia'er found it strange.
Clearly, each one was herself, and she was in control, but under the influence of different potions, each version of herself felt like a different person…
While the overall decisions were quite similar, in the details, each version of herself had a different way of handling things.
She didn’t know whether this was good or bad, nor if the system would eventually provide some skills to help integrate this seemingly split personality state.
Xia'er tucked the letter into her notebook, closed it, and rubbed her temples.
The continuous simulations and summons had piled up a lot of pressure on her mind, and she felt a slight fatigue throughout her body.
This feeling made her somewhat resistant to being "awake." If she continued with the simulations, her mental pressure would become overwhelming.
Suddenly, Xia'er thought of something and stood up.
A slight dizziness made her sway a bit. She gathered her things and put them into her bag, then picked up her pillow from the bedside and walked out of the guest room.
Plans had changed; she needed to make Aivina abandon her previous plans.
Each simulation brought Xia'er new information and intelligence, making the previous plans seem full of holes.
Now, Xia'er’s goal was no longer to stir the waters but to completely disappear from the cultists' sight while executing her plan.
However, that was a matter for later. It would take a lot of time for the people of the Holy Order to trace Xia'er through the smallest clues.
So, Xia'er’s target was to make Aivina and Adele fade from the Holy Order's view, ensuring they wouldn’t investigate Adele and Aivina any further.
Originally, Xia'er hadn’t figured out how to deal with the Holy Order without involving herself and her two friends.
But now, she had a better solution—an inspiration from the "Inciter" Xia'er’s spiritual summoning experiment.
However, one thing was certain: the issue of reporting the cult couldn’t continue.
The Goddess of Salvation’s internal structure might not have any cultists from the Holy Order.
But she couldn’t guarantee that there weren’t any moles hidden within the Redemption Society or the Dutton Group.
After all, she only had a list of cultists in Brolun City.
Currently, only she, Aivina, and Nia knew about the cultists; even Adele hadn’t learned about them in reality.
If the simulation progressed as it had, tonight, Aivina would reveal to Adele that she was in danger and would keep her in the room. The next morning, they would go directly to report to Yulis.
Before, reporting was the only option, but now, with more information, it had become a very unstable method.
This would expose Aivina, who had previously remained undetected, directly to the Holy Order’s scrutiny. If they didn’t report, it could provide some cover for Adele, who would soon attract Kiti’s investigation.
Xia'er staggered up to the third floor; just the journey from the second to the third floor left her slightly breathless.
Her energy had been drained too much.
Plus, now holding her pillow, a strong urge to just lie down and sleep began to grow within her.
Forcing herself to stay alert, she reached Aivina’s door and raised her hand to knock.
Xia'er heard hurried footsteps from inside, and soon, the door opened slowly, revealing a calm Aivina at the threshold.
“Just hang your things on the side.”
