âIn truth, I am somewhat to blame for Tinaâs current condition.â
Commander Grace was self-reflective, âDuring the duel just now, I may have shown a slight bias towards Megan, which might have disappointed Tina. It might be this reason that leads to Tinaâs fixation.â
Su Yu: â â
Su Yu initially did not want to dwell on the commanderâs favoritism and cheating, after all, she was trying to save her nieceâs and familyâs face, which was understandable.
However, at this critical moment, with Tina already unconscious, she was still making excuses for her behavior, Su Yu could not hold back anymore:
âWhat you did was not âa slight biasâ, it was blatant favoritism! Megan was cheating for sure, the sixth level potion, [Eternal Fury] can only be made by an advanced alchemist, how can you not know that? Canât you see it?
As a leader of the knights, you canât even maintain minimum fairness and justice, how can Tina not be disappointed in you?â
âWho do you think you are? How dare you talk to me like that?â Being caught off guard by Su Yuâs harsh words, Grace glared back at Su Yu, her eyes cold.
That a low-level mage dares to disrespect her, does he want to ascend to heaven or what?
âDing, [Grace Windsor]âs favorability towards you decreases by 5, lowering to hostility.â
However, Su Yu showed no fear towards Graceâs angry glare.
He tapped his chest where the [Advanced Scholar Badge] was, and said solemnly, âIâm a senior scholar at the Scholarâs Temple and the chief academic advisor of Princess Alyssa!
I accompanied her Highness to Maple City to negotiate with Duke Anzu Seifer recently, and not only did I rescue the princess from an attack by Duke Landilus and Archmage Antondidas, but also earned an impressive reputation!
The reason I came to Orleans City and became Tinaâs knight attendant was because I saw her potential to turn the tide in the future. Now you dare treat Tina so unfairly, why shouldnât I scold you?â
While saying these, Su Yu pulled out a royal token given to him by the princess, as well as the sixth-stage transformation scroll the princess rewarded him as proof of his identity.
The royal token was given to him by the princess during their negotiation at Maple City. With it, Su Yu could freely enter and exit Duke Seiferâs castle. He never thought this token would come in handy at this time.
Upon seeing these two items, Graceâs pupils contracted sharply.
She had initially thought that Su Yu was just a wealthy youngster, but it turned out that he was much more than that!
This was a royal token from the princess!
Whoever holds the princessâs royal token is regarded as her special envoy. Even the Lord of Orleans City would have to treat Su Yu respectfully, let alone her.
Due to communication difficulties during the war, the specific details of the princessâs negotiation in Maple City has not been spread out. Thus, Grace was still unsure about what happened in the north.
If what Su Yu said was true; if he was the one who saved Princess Alyssa from Duke Landilusâs clutches, then had she indirectly offended Princess Alyssa?
Grace eyed Su Yu up and down, her expression drastically changed.
Su Yu knew what the commander was pondering.
However, he didnât care. Right now, Tinaâs fixation was only getting deeper, she needed to be treated urgently.
Therefore, he urged her, âDonât worry about all that now, you can reflect on your mistakes later First, tell me how to save Tina.â
Hearing Su Yu say this, Grace temporarily suppressed her mixed feelings and shifted her gaze back to Tina.
After gauging the condition inside Tinaâs body, she said, âHonored envoy, I can pull your consciousness into Tinaâs consciousness world. If you help eliminate her fixation, Tina should be able to return to normal.â
Then she said to Su Yu honestly, âOne more thing I need to tell you, I indeed covered up for Meganâs cheating just now, I admit my mistake.
Soon I will deal with Megan and Kimberlyâs cheating according to the rules, and ensure justice is served for Tina.
I hope you can say a few words in our favor to the princess on behalf of us, the people of Orleans City. Orleans City will always be the most loyal support to the Empire!â
âWe can discuss that later.â Su Yu noncommittally waved her off, âHowever, remember that Tina represents the Empireâs future hope. You should nurture her more in the future, so she can grow faster. Itâs only beneficial to your family, understand?â
âUnderstood, Envoy.â
âDing, Your favorability with [Grace Windsor] +15, favorability has risen to ânoticeableâ.â
Tina was now deeply stuck in her obsession, and it couldnât be delayed any longer.
So Grace quickly sat cross-legged beside Tina, and began to cast her spell.
She placed one hand on Tinaâs forehead and the other hand on Su Yuâs head. A pure white light emanated from her body, filling the entire room.
At first, Su Yu didnât feel anything.
But after a while, he suddenly felt dizzy, and then lost consciousness completely.
When he woke up again, Su Yu found himself in a grey space.
Under his feet was a solid grey metallic ground, above his head was a boundless grey sky, behind him was a vast grey fog, and in front of him was a towering ten-meter-tall wall of earthy-yellow color that seemingly stretched infinitely.
There was an opening on the wall, but it was pitch black and he couldnât see inside.
âDing, the main storyline [Orleans Cityâs Saintess (12/100)] has been updated.â
âMission description: You have now reached the edge of [Tina Garciaâs] consciousness world. In front of you stands a massive labyrinth, the only route to the core of Tinaâs consciousness world.
If you die in the labyrinth, you will resurrect at the entrance of the labyrinth and restart.â
âMission requirement: Cross the maze, reach the core of Tinaâs consciousness world, countdown 59m59s.â
âMission reward: [Echo of the Phantom Cat (Consumable) X1, Experience Points X3000.â
âSo the inside of this wall is actually a labyrinth? It seems that the only opening in this wall is the entrance to the labyrinth.â Su Yu stroked his chin.
He only had an hour countdown.
But Su Yu didnât hurry into the labyrinth.
From his experience, there tend to be some goodies outside the entrance of the labyrinth, so he decided to try searching around first.
Thus, Su Yu began to search outside the labyrinth.
The search took about five minutes.
If you walk 50 meters back towards the fog from the entrance of the labyrinth, youâll be stopped by a transparent barrier.
Within this semi-circular radius of 50 meters, after a careful search, Su Yu really found a good item on the ground!
[Maze Amulet (Special Item)]
Effect: In Tinaâs consciousness labyrinth, if you take fatal damage, it will be automatically triggered to negate this damage. (Effective when placed in the bag)
Remaining uses: 10
Note: Up up down down left right left right BABA wait, why do I only have 10 extra lives?
Looking at this [Maze Amulet], Su Yu quietly felt relieved.
Lucky he explored a bit outside first.
If he didnât have this amulet and had to start exploring the labyrinth from its entrance every time he died, that would have wasted too much time.
After checking the items in his bag and ensuring that everything was prepared, Su Yu stepped into the entrance of the labyrinth.
