I'll Accept Your Request

"By the way, please don't misunderstand."

Perhaps sensing Fang Li's thoughts, Sylvia's expression brightened again, and she said, "I asked Bō Xié about things not for information, but for my own purposes. So, even if the people at the academy ask me to reveal it, I will choose to keep it a secret."

Generally speaking, even if you say this, not many people would believe it, right?

After all, if it were really to spy on Bō Xié, then lying a little would be a trivial matter.

However, Fang Li did not believe that Sylvia was lying.

This girl exudes such an incredible aura that you can feel her straightforwardness and candor.

Not to mention, Bō Xié's abilities are not something worth hiding.

Although revealing it to the opponent might lead to a strategy targeting the ability itself, fortunately, Bō Xié's ability has a wide range of applications. As long as he doesn't expose his weaknesses, such as only being able to change the form of things he comes into contact with or excessively consuming Star Pulse Energy, there won't be any problems.

Therefore, Fang Li could tell Sylvia the truth without any hesitation.

However, Fang Li was more concerned about something else than this.

"For his own purposes?"

Thinking of this, Fang Li fell silent for a moment, then looked at Sylvia and said this.

"You want to find your teacher, right?"

When those words came from Fang Li's mouth, Sylvia's expression froze for the first time.

That was an expression Fang Li had never seen before.

This world-class diva excels at drawing others into her rhythm, which is why she seems so incredible.

However, without a doubt, Fang Li's words completely threw Sylvia's rhythm out of control.

It wasn't until a while later that Sylvia spoke in a low voice.

"... How do you know about this?"

Sylvia's voice finally carried a different kind of emotion.

That's only natural.

"I've never told anyone about this. Even people I've been in contact with all along only know that I'm looking for someone, so very few people know about it." Sylvia met Fang Li's gaze and said, "You shouldn't know this."

Unfortunately, this time, Sylvia's statement was too absolute.

Logically speaking, Fang Li shouldn't have known about this.

However, as a Main God Envoy, Fang Li's greatest advantage lies in his foresight.

In addition, there was another reason why Fang Li found out about this.

Fang Li's expression remained unchanged as he simply said, "You should know Pandora from the Star Guidance Hall, right?"

"Pandora?" Sylvia nodded and replied, "You mean the Pure Star Imperial Armament of the ' Thousand Sights Alliance Leader,' the one that's said to be able to predict the future, right?"

"That's right." Fang Li affirmed, "Simply put, for some reason, I once learned about an uncertain future through Pandora's abilities, and in that future, you told me about it to my face."

"I told you you wanted to find your teacher, Ursula."

Sylvia remained silent.

Fang Li could sense that Sylvia's mood seemed to have become very complicated.

However, that's not surprising.

If someone finds out your secret and tells you that you told him it in the future, no one will easily believe it.

Of course, Sylvia didn't know that in that future, in order to find her teacher, she killed Fang Li.

However, the future predicted by Pandora is not fixed, but will change according to what is happening now.

Otherwise, if death were fixed, there would only be one way to die in the future. But Pandora made Fang Li experience countless deaths, proving that the future can be changed.

If those deaths were experiences simulated by Pandora herself and not real, then there's even less reason for her to be bothered by Sylvia killing her in her dream.

Therefore, Fang Li simply chose to ignore this matter.

It's impossible to hate someone just because you were killed in a dream.

Therefore, Fang Li chose to confront them directly.

"You asked me about Bō Xié's abilities, probably so I could help you find your teacher, right?" Fang Li said calmly. "Unfortunately, Bō Xié's abilities aren't detection-based, so he probably can't help you."

"...Is that so?" Sylvia sighed as expected, her smile returning, and said, "Actually, I was already mentally prepared. No matter what, Bō Xié's abilities couldn't possibly be exactly what I needed."

However, even so, Sylvia still chose to come to Fang Li to prove just how much she wanted to find her teacher, and that she was not willing to let go of such a slim chance.

Thinking of this, Fang Li looked at Sylvia's pretty face and asked, "Is that teacher very important to you?"

"Of course." Sylvia answered without hesitation, her smile becoming more gentle than ever before. She placed her hands in front of her, speaking as if in prayer.

"Ursula taught me to sing, and she taught me everything about this world. To me, she was like a mother."

In other words, Sylvia's current situation is entirely due to that teacher.

Seeing the gentle and nostalgic expression on Sylvia's face, Fang Li smiled slightly and said, "I understand. In that case, I'll accept your request."

"Huh?" Sylvia was stunned.

"What?" Fang Li smiled and said, "Isn't what you want me to do for you just to find your teacher?"

"Yes...that's right." Sylvia hesitated for a moment and said, "But, doesn't Bō Xié lack this ability?"

"Just because Bō Xié doesn't have it doesn't mean I don't." Fang Li shrugged and said, "I've taken on countless commissions like this already."

After all, for an armed detective, finding traces of people is a basic job, whether it's a criminal or something else.

"Besides..." Fang Li narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm not completely clueless about where your teacher is."

Sylvia's eyes widened suddenly, and her delicate body trembled slightly as she became somewhat excited.

At that moment, both Fang Li and Sylvia's expressions froze.
