In Valentina’s room, Fisher stared at the Demi-human Girls Completion Manual spread open in his palm with a bit of dazed distraction; he was trying to memorize the square-shaped characters at the top, but they differed significantly from any other writings he’d encountered, leaving him somewhat troubled.

He didn’t even know why he was doing this, almost as if he sought to understand her through the script used by the self-proclaimed "Rat", the Transferee.

In his hand, there was actually another pair of rings. At the time in Saint Nali, he not only bought them for Valentina; knowing Alagina was here, he certainly wouldn’t ignore her. It wasn’t just for them; he bought out all the rings from the jewelry shop.

Thinking carefully, if all these rings were to be worn, his hands would probably be gleaming, like wearing one on each finger would be the most fitting. But since the fingers that symbolize a contract are the ring fingers, he’d have to stack several rings on each ring finger, like turning his ring fingers into stacked iron barrels like medieval knights?

"..."

Fisher blinked, transforming his body back to its original form, gazing at the touch of flickering phosphorescent tendrils. This should be his original Chaos Species form, yet he felt odd and unable to accept it.

Perhaps the only trait on him affected by the Chaos Species is his preference for demi-human females, or maybe it’s the influence of the Demi-human girl control...

Fisher’s gaze sank slightly, awakening Azan Ross’s avatar wrapped around him.

He was right there the whole time, but under the influence of the hidden powers, if he didn’t show himself, Fisher couldn’t feel him at all, as if he didn’t exist.

He had realized earlier that the so-called "hidden" isn’t merely hiding from plain sight. Azan Ross’s authority doesn’t just invisibilize specific presences or reveal others. What’s crucial is once hidden, that presence is absolutely "non-existent" from others’ perspectives.

Untouchable, unperceivable, undetectable, seemingly vanished but truly existing, that’s the essence of hidden.

Gazing at the tendril revealed in his palm, Fisher pondered for a moment; emotions bubbling in his heart led him to speak,

"Azan Ross, you’ve been with her for so long, from when she left you to entrusting me with her... could you tell me, what does she see me as? A child, a tool for fulfilling her mission to save this world, a chaos species deceived into becoming human..."

"..."

But Azan Ross’s avatar merely coiled around him with its sticky tentacles, the featureless star-like whirlpools resembling suckers touching his skin, seemingly answering in some manner.

Fisher chuckled silently, self-mockingly looking at the Chinese characters in the Demi-human Girls Completion Manual,

"Forgot, you understand only the writings of the Demi-human girl control. Strange that she hasn’t taught you any others over such a long time."

"Creak~"

Just then, the door gently opened, revealing Valentina standing outside with a slightly weary look; she rubbed her brow and smiled at Fisher within the room,

"All plans have been made known to the other clan leaders, the orders have been given, sorting and preparing... but the Baline Clan Leader roughly calculated; counting the Cardinal, there aren’t that many we can teleport over, perhaps only a few hundred at most."

The expenditure for slime teleportation is quite high, let alone to instantaneously appear on the western side of the Western Continent from the farthest north of Northern Realm Sema Snow Mountain; expenditure per person scales up, even more so for these years as the Wutong Tree has been developing discreetly without amassing much wealth; this number of slots only exists because the slimes helped with the teleportation costs.

Fisher remained undiscouraged; with the presence of Valentina, Rafael, and Moli, three High Rank beings coupled with the Cardinal, they are sure to create significant chaos in Saint Nali, enough to distract Elizabeth.

"Yes, but Valentina, remember you are causing chaos to distract Elizabeth, there’s no need to kill anyone."

Valentina moved over to stand beside Fisher; she couldn’t see the Azan Ross’s avatar on him, and in the next moment, that avatar disappeared from Fisher’s view as well.

Valentina reached out to pat Fisher’s head, lightly humming,

"Of course, I know right from wrong. But I am just responsible for the Wutong Tree people, whereas the Red Dragon Court over there, they have grudges against Nali, worrying about them is more pressing than Wutong Tree."

"I have sent another message over, there will be no issue."

Valentina nodded. The issues with the battlefield below have mostly been sorted out; she turned and glanced at the time, exclaiming,

"It’s already so late; we said earlier that we’d eat... are you hungry? I can have someone bring us something."

Fisher shook his head, smiling,

"Not hungry, but if you want to eat, I can accompany you."

Valentina observed Fisher’s somewhat anxious expression; she knew he was still worrying about the coming events, causing a subtle stir in her heart. She started to speak while quietly sitting beside Fisher,
